Isaiah 33
1 Ègbé ni fún ọ, ìwọ apanirun, ìwọ tí a kò tí ì parun! Ègbé ni fún ọ, ìwọ ọ̀dàlẹ̀, ìwọ tí a kò tí ì dà ọ́! Nígbà tí o bá dẹ́kun à ń pa ni run; a ó pa ìwọ náà run, nígbà tí o bá dẹ́kun à ń dani, a ó da ìwọ náà.
Ho! you who make waste those who did not make you waste; acting falsely to those who were not false to you. When you have come to an end of wasting, you will be made waste, and after your false acts, they will do the same to you.
2 Olúwa ṣàánú fún wa àwa ń ṣàfẹ́rí i rẹ. Máa jẹ́ agbára wa ní òròòwúrọ̀ ìgbàlà wa ní àsìkò ìpọ́njú.
O Lord, have mercy on us; for we have been waiting for your help: be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of trouble.
3 Ní ìkérara ohùn rẹ, àwọn ènìyàn sá, nígbà tí o dìde sókè, àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè fọ́nká.
At the loud noise the peoples have gone in flight; at your coming up the nations have gone in all directions.
4 Ìkógun rẹ, ìwọ orílẹ̀-èdè ni a kórè gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti ọ̀dọ́ eṣú; gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkójọpọ̀ eṣú, àwọn ènìyàn wọ ibẹ̀.
And the goods taken in war will be got together like the massing of young locusts; men will be rushing on them like the rushing of locusts.
5 A gbé Olúwa ga, nítorí pé ó ń gbé ibi gíga, Òun yóò kún Sioni pẹ̀lú ẹ̀tọ́ àti òdodo.
The Lord is lifted up; his place is on high: he has made Zion full of righteousness and true religion.
6 Òun yóò jẹ́ ìpìlẹ̀ tí ó dájú fún àkókò rẹ ibùjókòó ìgbàlà kíkún àti ọgbọ́n òun ìmọ̀; ìbẹ̀rù Olúwa ni kọ́kọ́rọ́ sí ìṣúra yìí.
And she will have no more fear of change, being full of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of the Lord is her wealth.
7 Wò ó, àwọn onígboyà ọkùnrin wọn pohùnréré ẹkún ní òpópónà; àwọn ikọ̀ àlàáfíà sọkún kíkorò.
See, the men of war are sorrowing outside the town: those who came looking for peace are weeping bitterly.
8 Àwọn ojú ọ̀nà ńlá ni a ṣá tì, kò sí arìnrìn-àjò kankan ní ojú ọ̀nà. A ti ba àdéhùn jẹ́, a kẹ́gàn àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí, a kò bu ọlá fún ẹnikẹ́ni.
The highways are waste, no man is journeying there: the agreement is broken, he has made sport of the towns, he has no thought for man.
9 Ilẹ̀ ṣọ̀fọ̀ ó sì ṣòfò dànù, ojú ti Lebanoni ó sì sá Ṣaroni sì dàbí aginjù, àti Baṣani òun Karmeli rẹ àwọn èwe wọn.
The earth is sorrowing and wasting away; Lebanon is put to shame and has become waste; Sharon is like the Arabah; and in Bashan and Carmel the leaves are falling.
10 “Ní ìsinsin yìí ni èmi yóò dìde,” ni Olúwa wí. “Ní ìsinsin yìí ni a ó gbé mi ga, ní ìsinsin yìí ni a ó gbé mi sókè.
Now will I come forward, says the Lord; now will I be lifted up; now will my power be seen.
11 Ìwọ lóyún ìyàngbò, o sì bí koríko; èémí yín bí iná tí yóò jẹ yín run.
Your designs will be without profit, and their effect will be nothing: you will be burned up by the fire of my breath.
12 A ó jó àwọn ènìyàn run bí eérú; bí igbó ẹ̀gún tí a gé la ó dáná sí wọn.”
And the peoples will be like the burning of chalk: as thorns cut down, which are burned in the fire.
13 Ìwọ tí ó wà lọ́nà jíjìn, gbọ́ ohun tí mo ti ṣe; ìwọ tí ò ń bẹ nítòsí, jẹ́rìí agbára mi!
Give ear, you who are far off, to what I have done: see my power, you who are near.
14 Ẹ̀rù ba àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ní Sioni; ìwárìrì bá àwọn tí kò gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́: “Ta ni nínú wa lólè gbé pẹ̀lú iná ajónirun? Ta ni nínú wa lólè gbé pẹ̀lú iná àìnípẹ̀kun?”
The sinners in Zion are full of fear; the haters of God are shaking with wonder. Who among us may keep his place before the burning fire? who among us may see the eternal burnings?
15 Ẹni tí ó ń rìn lódodo tí ó ń sọ ohun tí ó tọ́, tí ó kọ èrè tí ó ti ibi ìlọ́nilọ́wọ́gbà wá, tí ó sì pa ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mọ́ kúrò nínú gbígba àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, tí ó di etí rẹ̀ sí ọ̀tẹ̀ láti pànìyàn tí ó sì di ojú rẹ̀ sí à ti pète ibi,
He whose ways are true, and whose words are upright; he who gives no thought to the profits of false acts, whose hands have not taken rewards, who will have no part in putting men to death, and whose eyes are shut against evil;
16 Òun náà yóò gbé ní ibi gíga, ibi ààbò rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ òkè ńlá olódi. A ó mú oúnjẹ fún un, omi rẹ̀ yóò sì dájú.
He will have a place on high: he will be safely shut in by the high rocks: his bread will be given to him; his waters will be certain.
17 Ojú rẹ yóò rí ọba nínú ẹwà rẹ̀ yóò sì rí ilẹ̀ kan tí ó tẹ́ lọ rẹrẹẹrẹ.
Your eyes will see the king in his glory: they will be looking on a far-stretching land.
18 Nínú èrò rẹ ìwọ yóò rántí ẹ̀rù rẹ àtẹ̀yìnwá: “Níbo ni ọ̀gá àgbà náà wà? Níbo ni ẹni tí ń gba owó òde wà? Níbo ni òṣìṣẹ́ ti ó ń mójútó ilé ìṣọ́ wà?”
Your heart will give thought to the cause of your fear: where is the scribe, where is he who made a record of the payments, where is he by whom the towers were numbered?
19 Ìwọ kì yóò rí àwọn agbéraga ènìyàn mọ́, àwọn ènìyàn tí èdè wọn fi ara sin, pẹ̀lú ahọ́n tí ó ṣàjèjì tí kò sì yé ni.
Never again will you see the cruel people, a people whose tongue has no sense for you; whose language is strange to you.
20 Gbójú sókè sí Sioni, ìlú àjọ̀dún wa, ojú rẹ yóò rí Jerusalẹmu, ibùgbé àlàáfíà n nì, àgọ́ tí a kò ní yí padà; àwọn òpó rẹ̀ ni a kì yóò fàtu tàbí èyíkéyìí nínú okùn rẹ̀ kí já.
Let your eyes be resting on Zion, the town of our holy feasts: you will see Jerusalem, a quiet resting-place, a tent which will not be moved, whose tent-pins will never be pulled up, and whose cords will never be broken.
21 Níbẹ̀ ni Olúwa yóò ti jẹ́ alágbára kan fún wa. Yóò sì dàbí ibi àwọn odò ńlá ńlá àti odò kéékèèké. Kì yóò sí ọkọ̀ ojú omi pẹ̀lú tí yóò kọjá lórí i wọn, ọkọ̀ ojú omi ńlá ni a kì yóò tù lórí wọn.
But there the Lord will be with us in his glory, ... wide rivers and streams; where no boat will go with blades, and no fair ship will be sailing.
22 Nítorí Olúwa ni onídàájọ́ wa, Olúwa ni onídàájọ́ wa, Olúwa òun ni ọba wa; òun ni ẹni tí yóò gbà wá là.
For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our law-giver, the Lord is our king; he will be our saviour.
23 Gbogbo okùn rẹ ni ó ti dẹ̀: Ìgbókùnró kò fìdímúlẹ̀, wọn kò taṣọ agbọ́kọ̀rìn, lẹ́yìn náà, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìkógun ni a ó pín àní arọ pẹ̀lú yóò ru ìkógun lọ.
Your cords have become loose; they were not able to make strong the support of their sails, the sail was not stretched out: then the blind will take much property, the feeble-footed will make division of the goods of war.
24 Kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ń gbé Sioni tí yóò wí pé, “Ara mi kò yá,” a ó dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn tí ń gbé ibẹ̀ jì wọ́n.
And the men of Zion will not say, I am ill: for its people will have forgiveness for their sin.
