< Isaiah 27 >

1 Ní ọjọ́ náà, Olúwa yóò fi idà rẹ̀ jẹ ni ní yà idà rẹ̀ a mú bí iná tí ó tóbi tí ó sì lágbára Lefitani ejò tí ń yọ̀ tẹ̀ẹ̀rẹ̀ n nì, Lefitani ejò tí ń lọ́ bìrìkìtì; Òun yóò sì pa ẹ̀mí búburú inú Òkun náà.
In that day lay a charge doth Jehovah, With his sword — the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan — a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan — a crooked serpent, And He hath slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.
2 Ní ọjọ́ náà, “Kọrin nípa ọgbà àjàrà eléso kan.
In that day, 'A desirable vineyard,' respond ye to her,
3 Èmi Olúwa ń bojútó o, Èmi ó bomirin ín láti ìgbàdégbà. Èmi ó ṣọ́ ọ tọ̀sán tòru kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ba à pa á lára.
I, Jehovah, am its keeper, every moment I water it, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!
4 Inú kò bí mi. Bí ẹ̀gún àti ẹ̀wọ̀n bá dojú ìjà kọ mí! Èmi yóò dìde sí wọn ní ogun, Èmi yóò sì dáná sun gbogbo wọn.
Fury is not in Me; Who giveth Me a brier — a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.
5 Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, jẹ́ kí wọn wá sọ́dọ̀ mi fún ààbò; jẹ́ kí wọ́n wá àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, jẹ́ kí wọn wá àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú mi.”
Or — he doth take hold on My strength, He doth make peace with Me, Peace he doth make with Me.
6 Ní ọjọ́ iwájú Jakọbu yóò ta gbòǹgbò, Israẹli yóò tanná yóò sì rudi èso rẹ̀ yóò sì kún gbogbo ayé.
Those coming in He causeth to take root, Jacob doth blossom, and flourished hath Israel, And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.
7 Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa ti lù ú gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti lu àwọn tí ó lù ú bolẹ̀? Ǹjẹ́ a ti pa á gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti pa àwọn tí ó pa á?
As the smiting of his smiter hath He smitten him? As the slaying of his slain doth He slay?
8 Nípa ogun jíjà àti ìjìyà ti o le ni ó fi dojúkọ ọ́ pẹ̀lú ìjì gbígbóná ni ó lé e jáde, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọjọ́ tí afẹ́fẹ́ ìlà-oòrùn fẹ́.
In measure, in sending it forth, thou strivest with it, He hath taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
9 Nítorí èyí báyìí ni ètùtù yóò ṣe wà fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jakọbu, èyí ni yóò sì jẹ́ èso kíkún ti ìmúkúrò ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ. Nígbà tí ó bá mú kí àwọn òkúta pẹpẹ dàbí òkúta ẹfun tí a fọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́, kì yóò sí ère Aṣerah tàbí pẹpẹ tùràrí tí yóò wà ní ìdúró.
Therefore by this is the iniquity of Jacob covered, And this [is] all the fruit — To take away his sin, in His setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They rise not — shrines and images.
10 Ìlú olódi náà ti dahoro, ibùdó ìkọ̀sílẹ̀, tí a kọ̀ tì gẹ́gẹ́ bí aginjù; níbẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ màlúù ti ń jẹ oko níbẹ̀ ni wọn ń sùn sílẹ̀; wọn sì jẹ gbogbo ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ tán.
For the fenced city [is] alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There doth the calf delight, And there it lieth down, And hath consumed its branches.
11 Nígbà tí àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ bá rọ, a ó ya wọn dànù àwọn obìnrin dé, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n dáná nítorí aláìlóye ènìyàn ni wọn jẹ́, nítorí náà ni ẹni tí ó dá wọn kì yóò ṣàánú fún wọn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹni tí ó mọ wọn kì yóò sì fi ojúrere wò wọ́n.
In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in setting it on fire, For it [is] not a people of understanding, Therefore pity it not doth its Maker, And its Former doth not favour it.
12 Ní ọjọ́ náà Olúwa yóò sì kó oore láti ìṣàn omi odo Eufurate wá títí dé Wadi ti Ejibiti, àti ìwọ, ìwọ ọmọ Israẹli, ni a ó kójọ ní ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Beat out doth Jehovah from the branch of the river, Unto the stream of Egypt, And ye are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
13 Àti ní ọjọ́ náà, a ó fun fèrè ńlá kan. Gbogbo àwọn tí ń ṣègbé lọ ní Asiria àti àwọn tí ń ṣe àtìpó ní Ejibiti yóò wá sin Olúwa ní òkè mímọ́ ní Jerusalẹmu.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, It is blown with a great trumpet, And come in have those perishing in the land of Asshur, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to Jehovah, In the holy mount — in Jerusalem!
