Listen to this O house of Jacob those [who] are called by [the] name of Israel and from [the] waters of Judah they came out those [who] swear - by [the] name of Yahweh and [the] God of Israel they bring to remembrance not in truth and not in righteousness.
2 ìwọ tí ò ń pe ara rẹ ní ọmọ ìlú mímọ́ n nì tí o sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Ọlọ́run Israẹli— Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
For from [the] city of holiness they have called themselves and on [the] God of Israel they have supported themselves [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
3 Èmi sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ àwọn nǹkan ti tẹ́lẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ tó ti pẹ́, ẹnu mi ló ti kéde wọn, mo sì sọ wọ́n di mí mọ̀; lẹ́yìn náà lójijì mo gbé ìgbésẹ̀, wọ́n sì wá sí ìmúṣẹ.
The former [things] from then I declared and from mouth my they went out and I proclaimed them suddenly I acted and they came.
4 Nítorí mo mọ bí ẹ ti jẹ́ olórí kunkun tó; àwọn iṣan ọrùn yín sì jẹ́ irin; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni iwájú yín idẹ ni.
For knew I that [were] stubborn you and [was] a sinew of iron neck your and forehead your [was] bronze.
5 Nítorí náà mo ti sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún ọ ní ọjọ́ tí ó ti pẹ́; kí wọn ó tó ṣẹlẹ̀ mo ti kéde wọn fún un yín tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ìwọ kò fi lè sọ pé, ‘Àwọn ère mi ló ṣe wọ́n; àwọn ère igi àti òrìṣà irin ló fọwọ́sí i.’
And I declared [them] to you from then before it came I proclaimed to you lest you should say idol my it did them and carved image my and molten image my it commanded them.
6 Ìwọ ti gbọ́ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí; wo gbogbo wọn. Ǹjẹ́ o kò nígbà wọ́n bí? “Láti ìsinsin yìí lọ, Èmi yóò máa sọ fún ọ nípa nǹkan tuntun, àwọn nǹkan tí ó fi ara sin tí ìwọ kò mọ̀.
You have heard look at all of it and you ¿ not will you tell I will proclaim to you new [things] from now and secret [things] and not you have known them.
7 A dá wọn ní àkókò yìí kì í ṣe láti ìgbà pípẹ́ ìwọ kò tí ì gbọ́ nípa wọn títí di òní. Nítorí náà, ìwọ kò lè sọ pé, ‘Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, mo mọ̀ nípa wọn.’

8 Ìwọ a ha ti gbọ́ tàbí ó ti yé ọ bí láti ìgbà àtijọ́ etí kò ti di yíyà. Ǹjẹ́ mo mọ̀ bí o ti jẹ́ alárékérekè tó; a ń pè ọ́ ní ọlọ̀tẹ̀ láti ìgbà ìbí rẹ.
Neither not you heard nor not you knew nor from then not it opened ear your for I knew certainly you will act treacherously and a rebel from [the] womb it has been called to you.
9 Nítorí orúkọ ara mi, mo dáwọ́ ìbínú mi dúró; nítorí ìyìn ara mi, mo fà á sẹ́yìn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, kí a má ba à ké ọ kúrò.
For [the] sake of name my I will make long anger my and praise my I will restrain myself to you to not to cut off you.
10 Wò ó, èmi ti tún ọ ṣe, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé kì í ṣe bí i fàdákà; Èmi ti dán ọ wò nínú ìléru ìpọ́njú.

12 “Tẹ́tí sí mi, ìwọ Jakọbu Israẹli ẹni tí mo pè. Èmi ni ẹni náà; Èmi ni ẹni àkọ́kọ́ àti ẹni ìgbẹ̀yìn.

Gather together all of you and listen who? among them has he declared these [things] Yahweh he loves him he will execute pleasure his on Babylon and arm his [the] Chaldeans.
15 Èmi, àní Èmi ló ti sọ̀rọ̀; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, mo ti pè é. Èmi yóò mú un wá, òun yóò sì ṣe àṣeyọrí nínú ìrìnàjò rẹ̀.

17 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, Olùdáǹdè rẹ, Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli: “Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, tí ó kọ́ ọ ní ohun tí ó dára fún ọ, tí ó tọ́ ọ ṣọ́nà tí ó yẹ kí o máa rìn.
Thus he says Yahweh redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel I [am] Yahweh God your [who] teaches you to profit [who] leads you in [the] way [which] you will go.
18 Bí ó bá ṣe pé ìwọ bá ti tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ sí àṣẹ mi, àlàáfíà rẹ kì bá ti dàbí ì ti odò, àti òdodo rẹ bí ìgbì Òkun.
If you had paid attention to commandments my and it was like river peace your and righteousness your like [the] waves of the sea.

And it was like the sand offspring your and [the] descendants of inward parts your like grains its not it will be cut off and not it will be destroyed name its from to before me.
20 Fi Babeli sílẹ̀, sá fún àwọn ará Babeli, ṣe ìfilọ̀ èyí pẹ̀lú ariwo ayọ̀ kí o sì kéde rẹ̀. Rán an jáde lọ sí òpin ilẹ̀ ayé; wí pé, “Olúwa ti dá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Jakọbu nídè.”

21 Òrùngbẹ kò gbẹ wọ́n nígbà tí ó kó wọn kọjá nínú aginjù; ó jẹ́ kí omi ó sàn fún wọn láti inú àpáta; ó fọ́ àpáta omi sì tú jáde.
And not they were thirsty [when] in [the] waste places he led them water from a rock he caused to flow for them and he split open a rock and they flowed out waters.
22 “Kò sí àlàáfíà,” ni Olúwa wí, “Fún àwọn ìkà.”
Not peace he says Yahweh [belongs] to wicked [people].
