< 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 heaven [is] my throne, and the earth [is] my footstool: where [is] the house that ye build to me? and where [is] the 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 my hand made, and all these [things] have been, saith the LORD: but to this man [will] I look, [even] to [him that is] poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
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 an ox [is as if] he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, [as if] he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, [as if he offered] swine's blood; he that burneth incense, [as if] he blessed an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4 fún ìdí èyí ni èmi pẹ̀lú yóò ṣe fi ọwọ́ líle mú wọn n ó sì mú ohun tí wọ́n bẹ̀rù rẹ̀ wá sórí wọn. Nítorí nígbà tí mo pè, kò sí ẹni tí ó dáhùn, nígbà tí mo sọ̀rọ̀, ẹnikẹ́ni kò tẹ́tí sílẹ̀. Wọ́n ṣe ohun búburú ní ojú mi wọ́n sì yan ohun tí mo kórìíra rẹ̀.”
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before my eyes, and chose [that] in which I delighted 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.
Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, 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 voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that rendereth recompense to his enemies.
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 travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a male child.
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 seen such things? shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? [or] shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth 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 bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut [the womb]? 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.
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn 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 suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may draw milk, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
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, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon [her] sides, and be dandled upon [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 Jerusalem.
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 heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known towards his servants, and [his] indignation towards 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 behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames 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 by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain 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 sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one [tree] in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith 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 [know] their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
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 sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them to the nations, [to] Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, [to] Tubal, and Javan, [to] the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory 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 to the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into 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 also take of them for priests [and] for Levites, 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 new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
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 it shall come to pass, [that] from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, 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 go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.
