Isaiah 61

1 Ẹ̀mí Olúwa Olódùmarè wà lára mi nítorí Olúwa ti fi àmì òróró yàn mí láti wàásù ìyìnrere fún àwọn tálákà. Ó ti rán mi láti ṣe àwòtán oníròbìnújẹ́ láti kéde ìdásílẹ̀ fún àwọn ìgbèkùn àti ìtúsílẹ̀ kúrò nínú òkùnkùn fún àwọn ẹlẹ́wọ̀n,

The spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make the broken-hearted well, to say that the prisoners will be made free, and that those in chains will see the light again;

2 láti kéde ọdún ojúrere Olúwa àti ọjọ́ ẹ̀san ti Ọlọ́run wa, láti tu àwọn tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ nínú,

To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure has come, and the day of punishment from our God; to give comfort to all who are sad;

3 àti láti pèsè fún àwọn tí inú wọn bàjẹ́ ní Sioni láti dé wọn ládé ẹwà dípò eérú, òróró ayọ̀ dípò ọ̀fọ̀, àti aṣọ ìyìn dípò ìpòrúru ọkàn. A ó sì pè wọ́n ní igi óákù òdodo, irúgbìn Olúwa láti fi ọláńlá rẹ̀ hàn.

To give them a fair head-dress in place of dust, the oil of joy in place of the clothing of grief, praise in place of sorrow; so that they may be named trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and so that he may have glory.

4 Wọn yóò tún àwọn ahoro àtijọ́ kọ́ wọn yóò sì mú àwọn ibi ìparun àtijọ́-tijọ́ náà bọ̀ sípò; wọn yóò jí àwọn ahoro ìlú náà padà tí a ti parun láti ìrandíran sẹ́yìn.

And they will be building again the old broken walls, and will make new the old waste places, and will put up again the towns which have been waste for long generations.

5 Àwọn àjèjì ni yóò máa da ọ̀wọ́ ẹran rẹ; àwọn àlejò yóò sì ṣiṣẹ́ nínú oko àti ọgbà àjàrà rẹ.

And men from strange countries will be your herdsmen, and those who are not Israelites will be your ploughmen and vine-keepers.

6 A ó sì máa pè yín ní àlùfáà Olúwa, a ó pè yín ní ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run wa. Ẹ ó máa jẹ nínú ọrọ̀ àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àti nínú ọrọ̀ wọn ni ẹ̀yin yóò máa ṣògo.

But you will be named the priests of the Lord, the servants of our God: you will have the wealth of the nations for your food, and you will be clothed with their glory.

7 Dípò àbùkù wọn àwọn ènìyàn mi yóò gba ìlọ́po méjì, àti dípò àbùkù wọn wọn yóò yọ̀ nínú ìní wọn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn yóò sì jogún ìlọ́po méjì ní ilẹ̀ wọn, ayọ̀ ayérayé yóò sì jẹ́ tiwọn.

As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.

8 “Nítorí Èmi, Olúwa fẹ́ràn ìdájọ́ òdodo; mo kórìíra olè jíjà àti ẹ̀ṣẹ̀. Ní òtítọ́ mi èmi yóò sẹ̀san fún wọn èmi yóò sì dá májẹ̀mú ayérayé pẹ̀lú wọn.

For I, the Lord, take pleasure in upright judging; I will not put up with the violent taking away of right; and I will certainly give them their reward, and I will make an eternal agreement with them.

9 A ó mọ ìrandíran wọn láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àti àwọn ìran wọn láàrín àwọn ènìyàn. Gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá rí wọn yóò mọ̀ pé wọ́n jẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn tí Olúwa ti bùkún.”

And their seed will be noted among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: it will be clear to all who see them that they are the seed to which the Lord has given his blessing.

10 Èmi yọ̀ gidigidi nínú Olúwa; ọkàn mi yọ̀ nínú Ọlọ́run mi. Nítorí ó ti wọ̀ mí ní aṣọ ìgbàlà ó sì ṣe mí lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ nínú aṣọ òdodo; gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkọ ìyàwó ti ṣe orí rẹ̀ lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ bí àlùfáà, àti bí ìyàwó ṣe ń ṣe ara rẹ̀ lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ pẹ̀lú ohun ọ̀ṣọ́.

I will be full of joy in the Lord, my soul will be glad in my God; for he has put on me the clothing of salvation, covering me with the robe of righteousness, as the husband puts on a fair head-dress, and the bride makes herself beautiful with jewels.

11 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ti í mú irúgbìn jáde àti bí ọgbà ṣe ń mú irúgbìn dàgbà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa Olódùmarè yóò ṣe mú òdodo àti ìyìn kí ó ru sókè níwájú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè.

For as the earth puts out buds, and as the garden gives growth to the seeds which are planted in it, so the Lord will make righteousness and praise to be flowering before all the nations.
