< Isaiah 52 >

1 Jí, jí, ìwọ Sioni, wọ ara rẹ ní agbára. Gbé aṣọ ògo rẹ wọ̀, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu, ìlú mímọ́ n nì. Àwọn aláìkọlà àti aláìmọ́ kì yóò wọ inú rẹ mọ́.
Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 Gbọn eruku rẹ kúrò; dìde sókè, kí o sì gúnwà, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu. Bọ́ ẹ̀wọ̀n tí ń bẹ lọ́rùn rẹ kúrò, ìwọ ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin ìgbèkùn Sioni.
Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem; loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
3 Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Ọ̀fẹ́ ni a tà ọ́, láìsanwó ni a ó sì rà ọ́ padà.”
For thus saith the LORD: Ye were sold for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money.
4 Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí. “Ní ìgbà àkọ́kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn mi sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Ejibiti láti gbé; láìpẹ́ ni Asiria pọ́n wọn lójú.
For thus saith the Lord GOD: My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 “Àti ní àkókò yìí, kí ni mo ní níbí?” ni Olúwa wí. “Nítorí a ti kó àwọn ènìyàn mi lọ lọ́fẹ̀ẹ́, àwọn tí ó sì ń jẹ ọba lórí wọn fi wọ́n ṣẹlẹ́yà,” ni Olúwa wí. “Àti ní ọjọọjọ́ orúkọ mi ni asọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí nígbà gbogbo.
Now therefore, what do I here, saith the LORD, seeing that My people is taken away for nought? They that rule over them do howl, saith the LORD, and My name continually all the day is blasphemed.
6 Nítorí náà àwọn ènìyàn mi yóò mọ orúkọ mi; nítorí ní ọjọ́ náà, wọn yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni ó ti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, Èmi ni.”
Therefore My people shall know My name; therefore they shall know in that day that I, even He that spoke, behold, here I am.
7 Báwo ni ó ṣe dára tó lórí òkè ẹsẹ̀ àwọn tí ó mú ìyìnrere ayọ̀ wá, tí wọ́n kéde àlàáfíà, tí ó mú ìyìnrere wá, tí ó kéde ìgbàlà, tí ó sọ fún Sioni pé, “Ọlọ́run rẹ ń jẹ ọba!”
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger of good tidings, that announceth peace, the harbinger of good tidings, that announceth salvation; that saith unto Zion: 'Thy God reigneth!'
8 Tẹ́tí sílẹ̀! Àwọn olùṣọ́ rẹ gbé ohùn wọn sókè wọ́n kígbe papọ̀ fún ayọ̀. Nígbà tí Olúwa padà sí Sioni, wọn yóò rí i pẹ̀lú ojú u wọn.
Hark, thy watchmen! they lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see, eye to eye, the LORD returning to Zion.
9 Ẹ bú sí orin ayọ̀ papọ̀, ẹ̀yin ahoro Jerusalẹmu, nítorí Olúwa ti tu àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ nínú, ó sì ti ra Jerusalẹmu padà.
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Olúwa yóò ṣí apá mímọ́ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ní ojú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè, àti gbogbo òpin ilẹ̀ ayé yóò rí ìgbàlà Ọlọ́run wa.
The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.
11 Ẹ túká, ẹ túká, ẹ jáde kúrò níhìn-ín yìí! Ẹ má fọwọ́ kan ohun àìmọ́ kan! Ẹ jáde kúrò nínú rẹ̀ kí ẹ sì di mímọ́, ẹ̀yin tí ẹ̀ ń gbé ohun èlò Olúwa.
Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kì yóò yára kúrò tàbí kí ẹ sáré lọ; nítorí Olúwa ni yóò síwájú yín lọ, Ọlọ́run Israẹli ni yóò sì ṣe ààbò lẹ́yìn ín yín.
For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward.
13 Kíyèsi i, ìránṣẹ́ mi yóò hùwà ọlọ́gbọ́n; òun ni a ó gbé sókè tí a ó sì gbéga a ó sì gbé e lékè gidigidi.
Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
14 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti rí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ tí wọ́n ń bu ọlá fún un— ìwò ojú rẹ ni a ti bàjẹ́ kọjá ti ẹnikẹ́ni àti ìrísí rẹ̀ ní a ti bàjẹ́ kọjá ohun tí ènìyàn ń fẹ́.
According as many were appalled at thee — so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men —
15 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni yóò ṣe bomirin àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ká, àwọn ọba yóò sì pa ẹnu wọn mọ́ nítorí rẹ̀. Nítorí ohun tí a kò sọ fún wọn, wọn yóò rí i, àti ohun tí wọn kò tí ì gbọ́, ni yóò sì yé wọn.
So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
