U-ISAYA 44 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

U-Israyeli ungokhethiweko kaSomnini

1USomnini uthi:

“Nje-ke, lalela wena Jakopo, ncekwami,

Israyeli engamkhethako!

2Nakhu engikutjhoko mina Somnini owakudalako,

wakubumba ngaphakathi kwesibeletho

begodu nokusizako:

Ungesabi Jakopo, ncekwami,

Jetjhuruni engimkhethileko.

3Ngizakuthululela amanzi

phezu kwenarha eyomileko,

ngenze imisele ehlabathini eyomileko;

ngizakuthululela uMoyami phezu kwabantwabakho

neembusiso zami phezu kweenzukulwani zakho.

4Zizakutlhurha njengomuthi ohlaza womtamariski

zibe njengemithi yomdubi emilanjaneni.

5Omunye uzakuthi, ‘Mina ngingowakaSomnini’;

omunye azibize ngebizo lakaJakopo;

kanti omunye uzazitlola esandleni athi,

‘NgingowakaSomnini’,

uthathe isinanazelo saka-Israyeli.”

6Nakhu okutjhiwo nguSomnini

iKosi nomhlengi wakwa-Israyeli,

iye, uSomnini uMninimandlawoke uthi:

“Ngingowokuthoma newokugcina,

ngaphandle kwami akunaZimu omunye.

7Nakube kukhona onjengami

hlangana nabosingazimu, akazitjho!

Akakubike lokho, angihlathululele kuhle,

kusukela ekwenzeni kwami abantu bokuthoma

nokobanyana kwenzekani emva kwalokho

nokuthi yini ezokwenzeka ngomuso.

Iye, nabakhona, abazitjho sizwe!

8“Nina ma-Israyeli, ningathuthumeli, ningesabi.

Azange ngikumemezele lokho phambilini

bengakubika na?

Nina nibofakazi bami.

Yitjhoni bona kghani ukhona omunye uZimu

ngaphandle kwami na?

Alikho elinye idwala;

ngambala alikho elinye engilaziko.”

Abalotjhi babosingazimu ziindlhayela

9Boke abenza iinthombembazwa, abasibantu

begodu nezinto abakakarela kizwezo, azazisi.

Nabofakazi bazo babazi bazo,

kodwana abakuboni lokho begodu abakuyeleli;

nje-ke bazakuhlaziswa.

10Ngubani ongabumba usingazimu,

akhande isithombesibunjwa esinganabubhadekelo na?

11Qalani-ke, boke abalandeli baso bazakuhlaziswa,

ngitjho nabososino abababantu nje.

Lokha nababuthana ndawonye; bavele ebandla,

bazaba nokwesaba bebahlaziswe.

12Umkhandisimbi usebenza ngesitlabagelo

emalahleni avuthako;

ubumba isiga ngeenondo,

asiqoqode ngeemphanga zakhe.

Naye uyalamba, aphelelwe mamandla;

nangaseli amanzi uyatsirimezeka.

13Umbazi ulinganisa isigodo ngentambo,

athale isimo sakazinyana ngomukhwa,

asigobhodlhe ngeentjhizela,

atshwaye ngesilinganisi.

Ubumba kube mfanekiso womuntu,

iye, kube mumuntu azihlalele

kobana ayokutshimalalisa

ngendlini yabosingazimu.

14Ubegade agawula emisedarini,

nakungasinjalo athathe umsayipurusi

nanyana i-owuku.

laphokhunye bekazikhulisela ipayini ayitjalileko

hlangana nemithi yehlathi,

ikhuliswe lizulu.

15Kanengi bekuba ziinkuni zokubasa,

yeke bekathatha ingcenye yazo

azifuthumeze ngazo.

Godu bekabasa umlilo apheke isikwa.

Kodwana khonapho bekajika abaze usingazimu

ukuze amguqele!

Iye, bekenza isithombesibazwa

bese uyasikhothamela.

16Ingcenye yeenkunezo wabasa ngazo umlilo;

iye, ngengcenye leyo wadla inyama:

Wabasa ngayo inyama yokubaswa,

wadla wasutha nti.

Godu wazifuthumeza bewathi:

“Hayi, ngifuthumele,

ngizizwela ukuvutha kamnandi komlilo!”

17Ngeengodo eziseleko, wenze uzinyana,

okusithombesibazwa sakhe!

Wasikhothamela, wahloma ihloko phasi

phambi kwaso,

wasithandaza wathi:

“Akhese ungisindise

ngombana wena unguzimami.”

18Abantwaba abazi litho, abalemuki litho.

Mbala, amehlwabo avalwe abe atshidzwa,

yeke ababoni begodu neengqondo zabo zivalekile,

iye, abatlhadlhuleki.

19Akakho namunye ocabangisisako,

akakho olemukako nonomkhumbulo wokuthi:

“Tjhephana ingcenye yazo

ngabasa ngayo umlilo,

godu bengapheka isikwa ngamalahle wakhona,

ngabasa nenyama ngadla.

Alo-ke ngingenza njani isinyenyiso ngokuseleko,

ngikhothamele isigodo sakogodo na?”

20Umuntu loyo semlunga athandaza nomlotha!

Udurhiswa yihliziyo ekhohlisiweko!

Isigodweso asikwazi ukusindisa ipilwakhe!

Abe akazibuzi athi:

“Into engesidleni sami le,

ayisimamala na?”

21USomnini uthi:

“Khumbula izintwezi wena Jakopo

ngombana uyincekwami.

Ngakubumba kobana ube yincekwami,

nje-ke angeze ngakukhohlwa,

wena Israyeli.

22Iimphambeko zakho ngizithanyele njengelifu

nezono zakho njengekungu.

Buyela kimi ngombana ngikuhlengile.”

23Hlokomani, nina mazulu

ngombana lokho kwenziwe nguSomnini;

rhuwelelani nani nsika zephasi.

Thakasani ngengoma nina ntaba,

nani mahlathi nayo yoke imithenu

ngombana uSomnini umhlengile uJakopo,

ngalokho waziphazimulisa kwa-Israyeli.

USomnini nguye yedwa uZimu

24Nakhu okutjhiwo nguSomnini umhlengakho,

owakubumba ngaphakathi kwesibeletho, uthi:

“NginguSomnini owenza zoke izinto,

ngimi ngedwa owathabulula amazulu,

ngaqhisa iphasi.”

25Iye, uSomnini utjharaganisa iimbonakaliso

zabaphorofidi bamala,

wenza izangoma isiphoqo,

izazi zifulathele

ngombana ilwazi lazo lisihlekiso.

26Uzalisa ilizwi lencekwakhe

aphumelelise ihlelo elamenyezelwa ziinthunywa zakhe,

uthi ngeJerusalema, “Izakuhlalwa babantu”;

athi ngamadorobho wakwaJuda, “Azakuvuselelwa;

iye, ngizakwakha butjha ebekubhuruziwe.”

27USomnini nguye owakhuluma nokuzika wathi: “Yoma kere!”

Godu wathi: “Imilambakho wena Bhabheli, ngizoyomisa!”

28Nguye owathi kuKoretjhi:

“Ungumelusami, uzakuphumelelisa koke engikuthandako.”

Wathi ngeJerusalema:

“Izakwakhiwa butjha.”

Godu wathi ethempelini:

“Iinsekelo zakho ziyakujanyiswa.”
