< Isaiah 1 >

1 The vision of Isaias the son of Amos I which he saw concerning Juda and Jerusalem in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias, kings of Juda.
Ìran sí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu èyí tí Isaiah ọmọ Amosi rí ní àsìkò ìjọba Ussiah, Jotamu, Ahasi àti Hesekiah àwọn ọba Juda.
2 Hear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the Lord hath spoken. I have brought up children, and exalted them: but they have despised me.
Gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ọ̀run! Fi etí sílẹ̀, ìwọ ayé! Nítorí Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀: “Mo tọ́ àwọn ọmọ dàgbà, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi.
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel hath not known me, and my people hath not understood.
Màlúù mọ olówó rẹ̀, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ sì mọ ibùjẹ olówó rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Israẹli kò mọ̀, òye kò yé àwọn ènìyàn mi.”
4 Woe to the sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a wicked seed, ungracious children: they have forsaken the Lord, they have blasphemed the Holy One of Israel, they are gone away backwards.
Á à! Orílẹ̀-èdè ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ń pa lẹ́rù, ìran àwọn aṣebi, àwọn ọmọ tó ti di aṣèbàjẹ́! Wọn ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ wọn ti gan Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli, wọn sì ti kẹ̀yìn sí i.
5 For what shall I strike you any more, you that increase transgression? the whole head is sick, and the whole heart is sad.
Èéṣe tí a ó fi tún lù yín mọ́? Èéṣe tí ẹ ò dẹ́kun ọ̀tẹ̀ ṣíṣe? Gbogbo orí yín jẹ́ kìkì ọgbẹ́, gbogbo ọkàn yín sì ti pòruurù.
6 From the sole of the foot unto the top of the head, there is no soundness therein: wounds and bruises and swelling sores: they are not bound up, nor dressed, nor fomented with oil.
Láti àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ yín dé àtàrí yín kò sí àlàáfíà rárá, àyàfi ọgbẹ́ òun ìfarapa àti ojú egbò, tí a kò nù kúrò tàbí kí á dì tàbí kí a kùn ún ní òróró.
7 Your land is desolate, your cities are burnt with fire: your country strangers devour before your face, and it shall be desolate as when wasted by enemies.
Orílẹ̀-èdè yín dahoro, a dáná sun àwọn ìlú yín, oko yín ni àwọn àjèjì ti jẹ run lójú ara yín náà, ni gbogbo rẹ̀ ṣòfò bí èyí tí àwọn àjèjì borí rẹ̀.
8 And the daughter of Sion shall be left as a covert in a vineyard, and as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, and as a city that is laid waste.
Ọmọbìnrin Sioni ni a fi sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àtíbàbà nínú ọgbà àjàrà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí abà nínú oko ẹ̀gúnsí, àti bí ìlú tí a dó tì.
9 Except the Lord of hosts had left us seed, we had been as Sodom, and we should have been like to Gomorrha.
Àyàfi bí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun bá ṣẹ́ díẹ̀ kù fún wà, a ò bá ti rí bí Sodomu, a ò bá sì ti dàbí Gomorra.
10 Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom, give ear to the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrha.
Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, ẹ̀yin aláṣẹ Sodomu, tẹ́tí sí òfin Ọlọ́run wa, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Gomorra!
11 To what purpose do you offer me the multitude of your victims, saith the Lord? I am full, I desire not holocausts of rams, and fat of fatlings, and blood of calves, and lambs, and buck goats.
“Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín kín ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín jásí fún mi?” ni Olúwa wí. “Mo ti ní ànító àti àníṣẹ́kù ẹbọ sísun ti àgbò àti ọ̀rá ẹran àbọ́pa, Èmi kò ní inú dídùn nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù, ti àgùntàn àti ti òbúkọ.
12 When you came to appear before me, who required these things at your hands, that you should walk in my courts?
Nígbà tí ẹ wá farahàn níwájú mi, ta ni ó béèrè èyí lọ́wọ́ yín, gìrì gìrì ẹsẹ̀ nínú àgbàlá mi?
13 Offer sacrifice no more in vain: incense is an abomination to me. The new moons, and the sabbaths, and other festivals I will not abide, your assemblies are wicked.
Ẹ má mú ọrẹ asán wá mọ́! Ìríra ni tùràrí yín jásí fún mi, oṣù tuntun àti ọjọ́ ìsinmi àti àwọn àpéjọ, Èmi kò lè faradà á, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni àpéjọ yín wọ̀nyí.
14 My soul hateth your new moons, and your solemnities: they are become troublesome to me, I am weary of bearing them.
Ayẹyẹ oṣù tuntun yín àti àjọ̀dún tí a yàn, ni ọkàn mi kórìíra. Wọ́n ti di àjàgà sí mi ní ọrùn, Ó sú mi láti fi ara dà wọ́n.
15 And when you stretch forth your hands, I will turn away my eyes from you: and when you multiply prayer, I will not hear: for your hands are full of blood.
Nígbà tí ẹ bá tẹ́ ọwọ́ yín sókè ni àdúrà, Èmi yóò fi ojú mi pamọ́ fún un yín, kódà bí ẹ bá gba ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àdúrà, Èmi kò ni tẹ́tí sí i. “Ọwọ́ yín kún fún ẹ̀jẹ̀.
16 Wash yourselves, be clean, take away the evil of your devices from my eyes: cease to do perversely,
“Wẹ̀ kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí ara yín mọ́. Ẹ mú ìwà ibi yín kúrò níwájú mi! Dáwọ́ àìṣedéédéé dúró,
17 Learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge for the fatherless, defend the widow.
kọ́ láti ṣe rere! Wá ìdájọ́ òtítọ́, tu àwọn tí a ń pọ́n lójú nínú. Ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, gbà ẹjọ́ opó rò.
18 And then come, and accuse me, saith the Lord: if your sins be as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow: and if they be red as crimson, they shall be white as wool.
“Ẹ wá ní ìsinsin yìí, ẹ jẹ́ kí a jọ ṣàṣàrò,” ni Olúwa wí. “Bí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín bá rí bí osùn, wọn ó sì funfun bí i yìnyín, bí wọn bá sì pọ́n bí ẹ̀jẹ̀, wọn ó sì dàbí ẹ̀gbọ̀n òwú.
19 If you be willing, and will hearken to me, you shall eat the good things of the land.
Tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́, tí ẹ sì gbọ́rọ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì jẹ ojúlówó adùn ilẹ̀ náà.
20 But if you will not, and will provoke me to wrath: the sword shall devour you because the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ bá kọ̀ tí ẹ sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀, idà ni a ó fi pa yín run.” Nítorí ẹnu Olúwa la ti sọ ọ́.
21 How is the faithful city, that was full of judgment, become a harlot? justice dwelt in it, but now murderers.
Wo bí ìlú òtítọ́ ṣe di àgbèrè! Ó ti kún fún ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ nígbà kan rí, òdodo ń gbé ibẹ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀ rí, ṣùgbọ́n báyìí àwọn apànìyàn!
22 Thy silver is turned into dress: thy wine is mingled with water.
Fàdákà rẹ ti di ìpẹ́pẹ́, ààyò wáìnì rẹ la ti bu omi là.
23 Thy princes are faithless, companions of thieves: they all love bribes, the run after rewards. They judge not for the fatherless: and the widow’s cometh not in to them.
Ọlọ̀tẹ̀ ni àwọn aláṣẹ yín, akẹgbẹ́ àwọn olè, gbogbo wọn ló fẹ́ràn àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ́n sì ń wá ẹ̀bùn kiri. Wọ́n kì í ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, ẹjọ́ opó kì í sì í dé iwájú wọn.
24 Therefore saith the Lord the God of hosts, the mighty one of Israel: Ah! I will comfort myself over my adversaries: and I will be revenged of my enemies.
Nítorí náà ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, alágbára kan ṣoṣo tí Israẹli sọ wí pé: “Á à! Èmi yóò ní ìfọ̀kànbalẹ̀ lórí àwọn ọ̀tá mi n ó sì gbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá mi.
25 And I will turn my hand to thee, and I will clean purge away thy dress, and I will take away all thy tin.
Èmi yóò pa ọwọ́ mi dà sí ọ, èmi ó sì ku ìpẹ́pẹ́ rẹ dànù, n ó sì mú gbogbo ìdọ̀tí rẹ kúrò.
26 And I will restore thy judges as they were before, and thy counsellors as of old. After this thou shalt be called the city of the just, a faithful city.
Èmi yóò mú àwọn adájọ́ rẹ bọ̀ sí ipò gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti àtijọ́, àti àwọn olùdámọ̀ràn rẹ̀ bí i ti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn náà ni a ó pè ọ ní ìlú òdodo, ìlú òtítọ́.”
27 Sion shall be redeemed in judgment, and they shall bring her back in justice.
A ó fi ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ ra Sioni padà, àti àwọn tí ó ronúpìwàdà pẹ̀lú òdodo.
28 And he shall destroy the wicked, and the sinners together: and they that have forsaken the Lord, shall be consumed.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni a ó parun. Àwọn tí ó bá sì kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ ni yóò ṣègbé.
29 For they shall be confounded for the idols, to which they have sacrificed: and you shall be ashamed of the gardens which you have chosen.
“Ojú yóò tì yín nítorí igi óákù mímọ́ èyí tí ẹ ní inú dídùn sí, a ó kàn yín lábùkù nítorí àwọn ọgbà yìí tí ẹ ti yàn fúnra yín.
30 When you shall be as an oak with the leaves falling off, and as a garden without water.
Ẹ ó sì dàbí igi óákù tí ewé rẹ̀ ti rọ, bí ọgbà tí kò ní omi.
31 And your strength shall be as the ashes of tow, and your work as a spark: and both shall burn together, and there shall be none to quench it.
Alágbára ọkùnrin náà yóò sì dàbí ohun ìdáná, iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ bí ẹ̀ṣẹ́-iná, àwọn méjèèjì ni yóò jóná papọ̀, láìsí ẹni tí yóò lè pa iná yìí.”
