U-ISAYA 65 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

Isibetho sabangakathembeki nomvuzo wabaqotho

1UZimu uthi:

“Bengitholakala kilabo

abangazange bazikhathaze ngami,

bengifunyanwa ngabangazange bangifune.

Esizweni esingazange sibize ibizo lami,

ngathi, ‘Ngilapha, ngilapha.’

2Imini yoke ngelulele izandla zami

ebantwini abanekani,

abakhamba eendleleni ezingakalungi,

balandela imicabangwabo,

3iye, abantu abahlalele ukungitlhorholoja emtarini:

Benza imihlabelo eemvandeni zabosingazimu,

batjhise netjhwalo e-aldarini leentina.

4Bahlala ngemathuneni

ebusuku baditjha eendaweni ezisithekileko.

Bagoma inyama yewotji

neembiza zabo zinomhluzi wenyama esinyenyiso,

5Ngibo abathi, ‘Sukela le, ungatjhideli kimapha

ngombana ngicwenge khulu kunawe!’

Eempumulweni zami abanjalo bayintuthu

evela emlilweni ovutha imini yoke.

6Qala, phambi kwami kutlolwe kwathiwa,

‘Angizukuthula kodwana ngizazibuyisela ngokuzeleko.’

Iye, ngizanibuyisela ngokuzeleko

7izono zenu nezaboyihlo ndawonye.”

Watjho njalo-ke uSomnini.

“Godu aboyihlo batjhisa imihlabelo eentabeni,

bangiphoqa emibundwini.

Ngalokho ngalinganisa ikokhelo ezeleko

yezenzo zabo ezandleni zabo.”

8Nakhu okutjhiwo nguSomnini:

“Njengombana umhluzi usafunyaneka

ehlukuzweni lamadiribe

bese abantu bathi, ‘Ungawalahli

ngombana anobuhle’,

nami-ke ngizakwenza njalo

ngenca yeenceku zami:

Angeze ngazilahla zoke.

9Ngizakuveza iinzukulwana kuJakopo nakuJuda,

ezizokuzuza iintaba zami;

iye, abantu bami abakhethiweko bazakuthumba inarha,

iinceku zami zihlale lapho.

10ITjharoni izakuba mrhula weembuzi nezimvu,

umrhoba we-Akori ube yindawo yokuphumula kweenkomo;

iye, kube lilifa labantu bami abangifunako.

11“Kodwana nina enifulathela uSomnini

nikhohlwe intabami ecwengileko,

ngokwendlalela uzinyana uGadi itafula,

nizalisela uzinyana uMeni

imijeka yewayini elivangiweko,

12ngizanibekela isabula

kobana ibe likusasa lenu.

Noke nizakugoba kobana nihlatjwe

ngombana ngibizile kodwana nangasabeli,

ngakhuluma kodwana nangalaleli.

Nenze ubumbi emehlwenami,

nakhetha engingakuthandiko.”

13Nje-ke nakhu okutjhiwo nguSomnini uSomandla:

“Qalani, iinceku zami zizakugoma,

kodwana nina nizakulamba.

Qalani, iinceku zami zizakusela,

kodwana nina nizakoma,

Qalani, iinceku zami zizakujekezela,

kodwana nina nizakurhubutjhwa.

14Qalani, iinceku zami zizakuhlokoma

ngethabo leenhliziyo zazo,

kodwana nina nizakurhahlawula

ngeenhliziyo ezibuhlungu,

nilile ngebanga lokwephuka ummoya.

15Nizakutjhiyela abalungileko bami amabizwenu,

bawasebenzise njengesithuko ebantwini, bathi,

‘Ngokunjalo uSomnini uSomandla uzanibulala’.

Kodwana eencekwini zami ngizakubeka elinye ibizo

16okuzakuthi nanyana ngubani obusisako enarheni

abusise ngalo ngokuthi,

‘NgoZimu othembekileko’.

Godu owenza isifungo enarheni

afunge athi,

‘NgoZimu othembekileko’.

Mbala, imiraro yaphambilini izakulitjalwa

begodu ifihlakale ebusweni bami.

17Qalani, sele ngizokudala izulu elitjha

nephasi elitjha:

Izinto zaphambilini azisazokukhunjulwa,

namkha ziyelelwe emkhumbulweni.

18Ngambala, thokozani nithabe nini nanini

kilokho engikudalako:

Qalani, sele ngizokudala iJerusalema

ibe lithabo

nabantu bayo babe yitokozo.

19Ngizakwethaba ngeJerusalema,

ngithokoze ngabantu bami;

Godu akusazukuzwakala kiyo amatjhada wesililo

nokurhuwelela ngokufuna isizo.

20Godu akusazukuba khona kiyo

isana eliphila amalangana kwaphela,

namkha iqhegu eliluphala belithukghele.

Mbala, isana lizakuhlongakala

sele lineminyaka elikhulu,

umuntu ongafikeleli ekhulwini leminyaka

uzakuthathwa njengothuwelelisiweko.

21Abantu beJerusalema

bazakwakha iinkumba bebahlale kizo,

batjale iindiribe, bagome isithelo sakhona.

22Angeze bakha bese kuhlala omunye,

batjale bese kugoma omunye

ngombana njengamalanga womuthi

azakuba njalo-ke namalanga wabantu bami

begodu abakhethiweko bami

bazazikholisa mndundu ngomsebenzi wezandla zabo.

23Abazukujulukela ilize

namkha babelethele abantwana ihlekelele,

ngombana bazakuba ziinzukulwana

zababusisiweko bakaSomnini

iye, bona nabantwana babo.

24Ngaphambi kobana babize, ngizaphendula,

kuthi basakhuluma, mina ngizwe.

25Ipisi nemvu zizakudla ndawonye,

ibhubezi lidle utjani njengekomo,

ithuli libe kukudla kwenyoka.

Angeze zalimaza namkha zitjhabalalise

kiyo yoke intabami ecwengileko.”

Watjho njalo-ke uSomnini.
