< Isaiah 66 >
1 Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Ọ̀run ni ìtẹ́ mi, ayé sì ni àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ mi. Níbo ni ilé tí ẹ ó kọ́ fún mi wà? Níbo ní ibi ìsinmi mi yóò gbé wà?
Thus saith the Lord, The heauen is my throne, and the earth is my footestoole: where is that house that ye will builde vnto me? and where is that place of my rest?
2 Kì í ha á ṣe ọwọ́ mi ló tí ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì wà?” ni Olúwa wí. “Eléyìí ni ẹni tí mo kà sí: ẹni náà tí ó rẹra rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ tí ó sì kẹ́dùn ní ọkàn rẹ̀, tí ó sì wárìrì sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi.
For all these things hath mine hand made, and all these things haue bene, sayth the Lord: and to him will I looke, euen to him, that is poore, and of a contrite spirite and trembleth at my wordes.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó fi akọ màlúù rú ẹbọ ó dàbí ẹni tí ó pa ènìyàn kan àti ẹni tí ó bá fi ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn kan tọrẹ, dàbí ẹni tí ó bẹ́ ajá kan lọ́rùn; ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fi irúgbìn ìyẹ̀fun tọrẹ dàbí ẹni tí ó mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹlẹ́dẹ̀ wá, ẹni tí ó bá sì sun tùràrí ìrántí, dàbí ẹni tí ó súre fún òrìṣà. Wọ́n ti yan ipa ọ̀nà tì wọ́n, ọkàn wọn pẹ̀lú sì láyọ̀ nínú ohun ìríra wọn,
He that killeth a bullocke, is as if he slewe a man: he that sacrificeth a sheepe, as if he cut off a dogges necke: he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swines blood: he that remembreth incense, as if he blessed an idole: yea, they haue chosen their owne wayes, and their soule deliteth in their abominations.

Therefore will I chuse out their delusions, and I will bring their feare vpon them, because I called, and none woulde answere: I spake and they woulde not heare: but they did euill in my sight, and chose the things which I would not.
5 Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, ẹ̀yin tí ẹ ń wárìrì nípasẹ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀: “Àwọn arákùnrin yín tí wọ́n kórìíra yín, tí wọ́n ta yín nù nítorí orúkọ mi, wí pé, ‘Jẹ́ kí a yin Olúwa lógo, kí a le rí ayọ̀ yín!’ Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ni ojú yóò tì.
Heare the worde of the Lord, all ye that tremble at his worde, Your brethren that hated you, and cast you out for my Names sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appeare to your ioy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 Gbọ́ rògbòdìyàn láti ìlú wá, gbọ́ ariwo náà láti tẹmpili wá! Ariwo tí Olúwa ní í ṣe tí ó ń san án fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ ohun tí ó tọ́ sí wọn.
A voyce soundeth from the citie, euen a voyce from the Temple, the voyce of the Lord, that recompenseth his enemies fully.
7 “Kí ó tó lọ sí ìrọbí, ó ti bímọ; kí ó tó di pé ìrora dé bá a, ó ti bí ọmọkùnrin.
Before she trauailed, she brought foorth: and before her paine came, she was deliuered of a man childe.
8 Ta ni ó ti gbọ́ irú nǹkan bẹ́ẹ̀ rí? Ta ni ó ti rí irú nǹkan bẹ́ẹ̀ rí? Ǹjẹ́ a le bí orílẹ̀-èdè kan níjọ́ kan tàbí kí orílẹ̀-èdè lalẹ̀hù ní ìṣẹ́jú kan? Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ Sioni bẹ̀rẹ̀ rírọbí bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì bí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seene such things? shall ye earth be brought forth in one day? or shall a nation be borne at once? for assoone as Zion trauailed, she brought foorth her children.
9 Ǹjẹ́ èmi a ha máa mú wá sí ìrọbí kí èmi má sì mú ni bí?” ni Olúwa wí. “Ǹjẹ́ èmi a ha máa ṣé ilé ọmọ nígbà tí mo ń mú ìbí wá?” Ni Ọlọ́run yín wí.
Shall I cause to trauaile, and not bring forth? shall I cause to bring forth, and shall be baren, saith thy God?
10 “Ẹ bá Jerusalẹmu yọ̀ kí inú yín kí ó sì dùn sí i, gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ẹ fẹ́ràn rẹ̀; ẹ yọ̀ gidigidi pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ó ti kẹ́dùn fún un.
Reioyce ye with Ierusalem, and be gladde with her, all ye that loue her: reioyce for ioy with her, all ye that mourne for her,
11 Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin yóò mu ẹ o sì ní ìtẹ́lọ́rùn nínú ọmú rẹ̀ tí ó tu ni lára, ẹ̀yin yóò mu àmuyó ẹ ó sì gbádùn nínú àkúnwọ́sílẹ̀ ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ rẹ̀.”
That ye may sucke and be satisfied with the brestes of her consolation: that ye may milke out and be delited with ye brightnes of her glorie.
12 Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Èmi yóò fún un ní àlàáfíà gẹ́gẹ́ bí odò àti ọrọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣàn omi; ẹ̀yin yóò mu ọmú, a ó sì gbé yín ní apá rẹ̀ a ó bá yín ṣeré ní orúkún rẹ̀.
For thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will extend peace ouer her like a flood, and the glorie of the Gentiles like a flowing streame: then shall ye sucke, ye shall be borne vpon her sides, and be ioyfull vpon her knees.
13 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìyá ti í tu ọmọ rẹ̀ nínú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò tù yín nínú a ó sì tù yín nínú lórí Jerusalẹmu.”
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you, and ye shall be comforted in Ierusalem.
14 Nígbà tí ẹ bá rí èyí, inú yín yóò dùn ẹ̀yin yóò sì gbilẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí i koríko; ọwọ́ Olúwa ni a ó sọ di mí mọ̀ fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ìbínú rẹ̀ ni a ó fihàn fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
And when ye see this, your hearts shall reioyce, and your bones shall flourish like an herbe: and the hand of the Lord shall be knowen among his seruants, and his indignation against his enemies.
15 Kíyèsi i, Olúwa ń bọ̀ pẹ̀lú iná àti kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun rẹ̀ tí ó dàbí ìjì líle; òun yóò mú ìbínú rẹ sọ̀kalẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìrunú, àti ìbáwí rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ahọ́n iná.
For beholde, the Lord will come with fire, and his charets like a whirlewinde, that he may recompence his anger with wrath, and his indignation with the flame of fire.
16 Nítorí pẹ̀lú iná àti idà ni Olúwa yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ lórí i gbogbo ènìyàn, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ni àwọn tí Olúwa yóò pa.
For the Lord will iudge with fire, and with his sworde all flesh, and the slaine of the Lord shall be many.
17 “Gbogbo àwọn tí wọ́n ya ara wọn sí mímọ́ tí wọ́n sì sọ ara wọn di mímọ́ láti lọ sínú ọgbà, tí wọ́n tẹ̀lé ẹni tí ó wà láàrín àwọn tí ó jẹ ẹran ẹlẹ́dẹ̀ àti èkúté àti àwọn ohun ìríra mìíràn ni wọn yóò bá òpin wọn pàdé papọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
They that sanctifie themselues, and purifie themselues in the gardens behinde one tree in the middes eating swines flesh, and such abomination, euen the mouse, shall be consumed together, sayeth the Lord.
18 “Àti Èmi, nítorí ìgbésẹ̀ wọn àti èrò wọn, èmi ti múra tán láti wá kó àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àti ahọ́n jọ, wọn yóò sì wá wo ògo mi.
For I will visite their workes, and their imaginations: for it shall come that I will gather all nations, and tongues, and they shall come, and see my glorie.
19 “Èmi yóò sì gbé àmì kan kalẹ̀ láàrín wọn, èmi yóò sì rán díẹ̀ nínú àwọn tí ó sálà lọ sí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè Tarṣiṣi, sí àwọn ará Libia àti Ludi, sí Tubali àti ará Giriki, àti sí àwọn erékùṣù tí ó jìnnà réré tí kò tí ìgbọ́ nípa òkìkí mi tàbí kí ó rí ògo mi. Wọn yóò kéde ògo mi láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
And I will set a signe among them, and will send those that escape of them, vnto the nations of Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, and to them that drawe the bowe, to Tubal and Tauan, yles afarre off, that haue not heard my fame, neither haue seene my glorie, and they shall declare my glorie among the Gentiles.
20 Wọn yóò sì mú àwọn arákùnrin yín wá, láti gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè, sí òkè mímọ́ mi ní Jerusalẹmu gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọrẹ sí Olúwa lórí ẹṣin, lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù àti ọkọ̀-ẹṣin, àti lórí ìbáaka àti ìbákasẹ,” ni Olúwa wí. “Wọn yóò kó wọn wá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti mú ọrẹ oníhóró wọn wá, sínú Tẹmpili Olúwa nínú ohun èlò mímọ́.
And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering vnto the Lord out of all nations, vpon horses, and in charets, and in horse litters, and vpon mules, and swift beastes, to Ierusalem mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel, offer in a cleane vessell in the House of the Lord.
21 Àti pé èmi yóò sì yan àwọn kan nínú wọn pẹ̀lú láti jẹ́ àlùfáà àti Lefi,” ni Olúwa wí.
And I will take of them for Priestes, and for Leuites, saith the Lord.
22 “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọ̀run tuntun àti ayé tuntun tí mo dá yóò ṣe wà níwájú mi títí láé,” ni Olúwa wí, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni orúkọ yín àti ìrandíran yín yóò pegedé.
For as the newe heauens, and the newe earth which I will make, shall remaine before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seede and your name continue.
23 Láti oṣù tuntun kan dé òmíràn àti láti ọjọ́ ìsinmi kan dé òmíràn, ni gbogbo ọmọ ènìyàn yóò wá, wọn yóò sì tẹríba níwájú mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
And from moneth to moneth, and from Sabbath to Sabbath shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
24 “Wọn yóò sì jáde lọ wọn yóò sì lọ wo òkú àwọn tí wọ́n dìtẹ̀ sí mi; kòkòrò wọn kì yóò kú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni iná wọn ni a kì yóò pa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn yóò sì jẹ́ ohun ìríra fún gbogbo ọmọ ènìyàn.”
And they shall goe forth, and looke vpon the carkases of the men that haue transgressed against me: for their worme shall not dye, neither shall their fire be quenched, and they shalbe an abhorring vnto all flesh.
