Read Isaiah 49
1 Ẹ gbọ ti emi, ẹnyin erekùṣu; ki ẹ si fi etí silẹ, ẹnyin enia lati ọ̀na jijìn wá; Oluwa ti pè mi lati inu wá; lati inu iya mi li o ti dá orukọ mi.
1 Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
2 O si ti ṣe ẹnu mi bi idà mimú; ninu ojìji ọwọ́ rẹ̀ li o ti pa mi mọ, o si sọ mi di ọfà didán; ninu apó rẹ̀ li o ti pa mi mọ́;
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
3 O si wi fun mi pe, Iwọ ni iranṣẹ mi, Israeli, ninu ẹniti a o yìn mi logo.
3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
4 Nigbana ni mo wi pe, Emi ti ṣiṣẹ́ lasan, emi ti lò agbara mi lofo, ati lasan: nitõtọ idajọ mi mbẹ lọdọ Oluwa, ati iṣẹ mi lọdọ Ọlọrun mi.
4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God.
5 Ati nisisiyi, li Oluwa wi, ẹni ti o mọ mi lati inu wá lati ṣe iranṣẹ rẹ̀, lati mu Jakobu pada wá sọdọ rẹ̀, lati ṣà Israeli jọ, ki emi le ni ogo loju Oluwa, Ọlọrun mi yio si jẹ́ agbara mi.
5 And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
6 O si wipe, O ṣe ohun kekere ki iwọ ṣe iranṣẹ mi, lati gbe awọn ẹyà Jakobu dide, ati lati mu awọn ipamọ Israeli pada: emi o si fi ọ ṣe imọlẹ awọn Keferi, ki iwọ ki o le ṣe igbala mi titi de opin aiye.
6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
7 Bayi ni Oluwa, Olurapada Israeli, ati Ẹni-Mimọ rẹ wi, fun ẹniti enia ngàn, fun ẹniti orilẹ-ède korira, fun iranṣẹ awọn olori, pe, Awọn ọba yio ri, nwọn o si dide, awọn ọmọ-alade pẹlu yio wolẹ sìn, nitori Oluwa ti iṣe olõtọ, Ẹni-Mimọ Israeli, on li o yàn ọ.
7 Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
8 Bayi ni Oluwa wi, Li akoko itẹwọgba emi ti gbọ́ tirẹ, ati li ọjọ igbala, mo si ti ràn ọ lọwọ: emi o si pa ọ mọ, emi o si fi ọ ṣe majẹmu awọn enia, lati fi idi aiye mulẹ, lati mu ni jogun ahoro ilẹ nini wọnni.
8 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
9 Ki iwọ ki o le wi fun awọn igbekùn pe, Ẹ jade lọ; fun awọn ti o wà ni okùnkun pe, Ẹ fi ara nyin hàn. Nwọn o jẹ̀ li ọ̀na wọnni, pápa ijẹ wọn o si wà ni gbogbo ibi giga.
9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.
10 Ebi kì yio pa wọn, bẹ̃ni ongbẹ kì yio si gbẹ wọn; õru kì yio mu wọn, bẹ̃ni õrùn kì yio si pa wọn: nitori ẹniti o ti ṣãnu fun wọn yio tọ́ wọn, ani nihà isun omi ni yio dà wọn.
10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
11 Emi o si sọ gbogbo awọn òke-nla mi wọnni di ọ̀na, a o si gbe ọ̀na opopo mi wọnni ga.
11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.
12 Kiye si i, awọn wọnyi yio wá lati ọ̀na jijìn: si wò o, awọn wọnyi lati ariwa wá; ati lati iwọ-õrun wá, ati awọn wọnyi lati ilẹ Sinimu wá.
12 Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.
13 Kọrin, ẹnyin ọrun; ki o si yọ̀, iwọ aiye; bú jade ninu orin, ẹnyin oke-nla: nitori Oluwa ti tù awọn enia rẹ̀ ninu, yio si ṣãnu fun awọn olupọnju rẹ̀.
13 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.
14 Ṣugbọn Sioni wipe, Oluwa ti kọ̀ mi silẹ; Oluwa mi si ti gbagbe mi.
14 But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.
15 Obinrin ha lè gbagbe ọmọ ọmú rẹ̀ bi, ti kì yio fi ṣe iyọ́nu si ọmọ inu rẹ̀? lõtọ, nwọn le gbagbe, ṣugbọn emi kì yio gbagbe rẹ.
15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
16 Kiye si i, emi ti kọ ọ si atẹlẹwọ mi: awọn odi rẹ mbẹ niwaju mi nigbagbogbo.
16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
17 Awọn ọmọ rẹ yára; awọn oluparun rẹ ati awọn ti o fi ọ ṣofò yio ti ọdọ rẹ jade.
17 Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee.
18 Gbe oju rẹ soke yika kiri, si kiyesi i: gbogbo awọn wọnyi ṣà ara wọn jọ, nwọn si wá sọdọ rẹ. Oluwa wipe, Bi mo ti wà, iwọ o fi gbogbo wọn bò ara rẹ, bi ohun ọṣọ́, nitõtọ, iwọ o si há wọn mọ ara, bi iyawo.
18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.
19 Nitori ibi ofò rẹ, ati ibi ahoro rẹ wọnni, ati ilẹ iparun rẹ, yio tilẹ há jù nisisiyi, nitori awọn ti ngbe inu wọn, awọn ti o gbe ọ mì yio si jinà rére.
19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.
20 Awọn ọmọ-ọmọ rẹ ti o ti nù yio tun wi li eti rẹ pe, Ayè kò gbà mi, fi ayè fun mi lati ma gbé.
20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.
21 Nigbana ni iwọ o wi li ọkàn rẹ pe, Tali o bi awọn wọnyi fun mi, mo sa ti wà li ailọmọ ati li àgan, igbèkun ati ẹni-iṣikiri? tani o si ti tọ́ awọn wọnyi dagba? Kiyesi i, a fi emi nikan silẹ, awọn wọnyi, nibo ni nwọn gbe ti wà.
21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?
22 Bayi ni Oluwa Jehofa wi, Kiyesi i, emi o gbe ọwọ́ mi soke si awọn Keferi, emi o si gbe ọpágun mi soke si awọn enia, nwọn o si gbe awọn ọmọkunrin rẹ wá li apa wọn, a o si gbe awọn ọmọbinrin rẹ li ejìka wọn.
22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
23 Awọn ọba yio jẹ baba olutọju rẹ, awọn ayaba wọn yio si jẹ iya olutọju rẹ; ni idojubolẹ ni nwọn o ma tẹriba fun ọ, nwọn o si lá ekuru ẹsẹ rẹ; iwọ o si mọ̀ pe emi li Oluwa; nitori oju kì yio tì awọn ti o ba duro dè mi.
23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
24 A ha le gba ikogun lọwọ alagbara bi? tabi a le gbà awọn ondè lọwọ awọn ẹniti nwọn tọ́ fun?
24 Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?
25 Ṣugbọn bayi ni Oluwa wi, a o tilẹ̀ gbà awọn ondè kuro lọwọ awọn alagbara, a o si gbà ikogun lọwọ awọn ẹni-ẹ̀ru; nitori ẹniti o mba ọ jà li emi o ba jà, emi o si gbà awọn ọmọ rẹ là.
25 But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.
26 Awọn ti o ni ọ lara li emi o fi ẹran ara wọn bọ́, nwọn o mu ẹjẹ ara wọn li amuyo bi ọti-waini didùn: gbogbo ẹran-ara yio si mọ̀ pe, Emi Oluwa ni Olugbala ati Olurapada rẹ, Ẹni-alagbara ti Jakobu.
26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
