Isaiah 59
1 Lódodo ọwọ́ Olúwa kò kúrú láti gbàlà, tàbí kí etí rẹ̀ wúwo láti gbọ́.
Here! not it is [too] short [the] hand of Yahweh for saving and not it is [too] heavy ear his for hearing.
2 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín ló ti yà yín kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run yín; ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín ti fi ojú u rẹ̀ pamọ́ fún un yín tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí òun kò fi le gbọ́.
For except iniquities your they have been separating between you and between God your and sins your they have hidden face from you from hearing.
3 Nítorí ọwọ́ yín di aláìmọ́ fún ẹ̀jẹ̀, àti ìka ọwọ́ yín fún ẹ̀bi. Ètè yín ń pa irọ́ púpọ̀, ahọ́n yín sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ nǹkan ibi.
For hands your they are defiled with blood and fingers your with iniquity lips your they have spoken falsehood tongue your injustice it mutters.
4 Kò sí ẹni tí ó béèrè fún ìdájọ́ òdodo; kò sí ẹni tí ó ro ẹjọ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú òtítọ́. Wọ́n gbẹ́kẹ̀lé àwíjàre asán àti ọ̀rọ̀ irọ́; wọ́n lóyún ìkà, wọn sì bí wàhálà.
There not [is one who] calls in righteousness and there not [is one who] enters into judgment in truth [they are] trusting on emptiness and they speak worthlessness they conceive mischief and they bring forth wickedness.
5 Wọn ń pa ẹ̀yin paramọ́lẹ̀ wọn sì ń ta owú aláǹtakùn. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ ẹyin wọn yóò kú, àti nígbà tí a pa ọ̀kan, paramọ́lẹ̀ ni ó jáde.
Eggs of a viper they have hatched and webs of a spider they weave the [one who] eats any of eggs their he will die and the pressed [egg] it is hatched a snake.
6 Òwú wọn kò wúlò fún aṣọ rírán; wọn kò lè fi aṣọ tí wọ́n hun bo ara wọn. Iṣẹ́ wọn jẹ́ ti ibi, ìwà jàǹdùkú sì kún ọwọ́ wọn.
Webs their not they will become clothing and not people will cover themselves with products their products their [are] products of wickedness and deed[s] of violence [is] in hands their.
7 Ẹsẹ̀ wọn yára bọ́ sínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀; wọ́n yára láti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Èrò wọn sì jẹ́ èrò ibi; ìparun àti ìdahoro ni ó wà ní ṣíṣe àmì ọ̀nà wọn.
Feet their to evil they run and they may hasten to shed blood innocent thoughts their [are] thoughts of wickedness devastation and destruction [are] on highways their.
8 Ọ̀nà àlàáfíà èyí ni wọn kò mọ̀; kò sí òdodo ní ojú ọ̀nà wọn wọ́n ti sọ wọ́n dì ọ̀nà kọ́rọkọ̀rọ, kò sí ẹni tí ó tọ ọ̀nà yìí tí yóò rí àlàáfíà.
A way of peace not they know and there not [is] justice on tracks their paths their they have made crooked themselves any [one who] treads on it not he knows peace.
9 Nítorí èyí ni ẹ̀tọ́ fi jìnnà sí wa, àti tí òdodo kò fi tẹ̀ wá lọ́wọ́. A ń wá ìmọ́lẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo rẹ̀ jẹ́ òkùnkùn; ìmọ́lẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n à ń rìn nínú òjìji.
There-fore it is far justice from us and not it reaches us righteousness we wait eagerly for the light and there! darkness for gleams of light in gloom we walk.
10 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí afọ́jú à ń táràrà lọ lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ ògiri tí a ń wá ọ̀nà wa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ènìyàn tí kò ní ojú. Ní ọ̀sán gangan ni à ń kọsẹ̀ bí ẹni pé alẹ́ ni; láàrín alágbára àwa dàbí òkú.
We grope for like blind [people] a wall and like there not [are] eyes we grope we have stumbled at noon like the twilight among the fat people like dead [people].
11 Gbogbo wa là ń ké bí i beari; àwa pohùnréré ẹkún bí àdàbà. A ń wá ìdájọ́ òdodo ṣùgbọ́n kò sí; à ń wọ́nà fún ìtúsílẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ó jìnnà réré.
We growl like bears all of us and like doves certainly we moan we wait eagerly for justice and there not for deliverance it is far from us.
12 Nítorí àwọn àṣìṣe wa pọ̀ níwájú rẹ, àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa sì ń jẹ́rìí takò wá. Àwọn àìṣedéédéé wa sì wà pẹ̀lú wa, àwa pẹ̀lú sì mọ àìṣedéédéé wa,
For they are many transgressions our before you and sins our it has testified against us that transgressions our [are] with us and iniquities our we know them.
13 ọ̀tẹ̀ àti àrékérekè wa sí Olúwa, kíkọ ẹ̀yìn wa sí Ọlọ́run, dídá yánpọnyánrin àti ìnilára sílẹ̀, pípààrọ̀ tí ọkàn wa ti gbèrò síta.
We have transgressed and we have denied Yahweh and we have turned back from after God our we have spoken oppression and rebellion we have conceived and we have uttered from [the] heart words of falsehood.
14 Nítorí èyí ni a ṣe lé ìdájọ́ òdodo sẹ́yìn, àti ti òdodo dúró lókèèrè; òtítọ́ ti ṣubú ní òpópó ọ̀nà, òdodo kò sì le è wọlé.
And it has been driven back backwards justice and righteousness from a distance it stands for it has stumbled in the open place truth and honesty not it is able to enter.
15 A kò rí òtítọ́ mọ́, àti ẹni tí ó bá sá fun ibi tì di ìjẹ. Olúwa wò ó ọkàn rẹ̀ sì bàjẹ́ pé kò sí ìdájọ́ òdodo.
And it was truth lacking and [one who] turned aside from evil [was] plundered and he saw Yahweh and it was displeasing in view his that there not [was] justice.
16 Òun rí i pé kò sí ẹnìkan, àyà fò ó pé kò sí ẹnìkan láti ṣèrànwọ́; nítorí apá òun tìkára rẹ̀ ló ṣiṣẹ́ ìgbàlà fún ara rẹ̀, àti òdodo òun tìkára rẹ̀ ló gbé e ró.
And he saw that there not [was] anyone and he was appalled that there not [was one who] interposed and it gave victory to him own arm his and own righteousness his it it sustained him.
17 Ó gbé òdodo wọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbàyà rẹ̀, àti àṣíborí ìgbàlà ní orí rẹ̀; ó gbé ẹ̀wù ẹ̀san wọ̀ ó sì yí ara rẹ̀ ní ìtara bí ẹ̀wù.
And he put on righteousness like body armor and a helmet of salvation on head his and he put on garments of vengeance clothing and he wrapped himself like robe zeal.
18 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ohun tí wọ́n ti ṣe, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni yóò san án ìbínú fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ àti ẹ̀san fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀; òun yóò san án fún àwọn erékùṣù ẹ̀tọ́ wọn.
As on deeds as on he will repay rage to opponents his recompense to enemies his to the islands recompense he will repay.
19 Láti ìwọ̀-oòrùn, àwọn ènìyàn yóò bẹ̀rù orúkọ Olúwa, àti láti ìlà-oòrùn, wọn yóò bọ̀wọ̀ fún ògo rẹ̀. Nítorí òun yóò wá gẹ́gẹ́ bí i rírú omi èyí tí èémí Olúwa ń tì lọ.
And they may fear from [the] setting place [the] name of Yahweh and from [the] rising of [the] sun glory his for he will come like river narrow [which] [the] wind of Yahweh it will drive it.
20 “Olùdáǹdè yóò wá sí Sioni, sí àwọn tí ó wà ní Jakọbu tí ó ronúpìwàdà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn,” ni Olúwa wí.
And he will come to Zion a redeemer and to [those who] repent of transgression in Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh.
21 “Àti fún èmi, májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú wọn nìyìí,” ni Olúwa wí, “Ẹ̀mí mi, tí ó wà nínú yín, àti ọ̀rọ̀ mi tí mo ti fi sí ẹnu yín, kì yóò kúrò lẹ́nu yín, tàbí lẹ́nu àwọn ọmọ yín, tàbí láti ẹnu àwọn ìrandíran wọn láti àkókò yìí lọ àti títí láéláé,” ni Olúwa wí.
And I this [is] covenant my with them he says Yahweh spirit my which [is] on you and words my which I have put in mouth your not they will depart from mouth your and from [the] mouth of offspring your and from [the] mouth of [the] offspring of offspring your he says Yahweh from now and until perpetuity.
