uIsaya uIsaya 63 - Contemporary Xhosa Bible 2024

1Ngubani na lo wakwaEdom, onxibe iimpahla ezimbejembeje zaseBhotsera? Ongena engutyeni yakhe, ohamba ebuninzini bamandla akhe? Mna othetha ubulungisa ndinegunya lokusindisa.

2Kutheni sibomvu isambatho sakho, nezambatho zakho zibe njengezomntu oxovula iwayini etyebileyo?

3Isixovulelo ndisixovule ndedwa; kwakungekho nanye kwiintlanga ezazikunye nam; igazi lawo liya kutshizwa ezingubeni zam, ndizidyobhise zonke iingubo zam.

4Kuba umhla wokukhulula usentliziyweni yam, nomnyaka wokukhulula kwam ngokuhlawulela ufikile.

5Ndahamba ke, akwabakho mncedi; kwaye ndamangaliswa ukuba kwakungekho bani ukuxhasayo; sandisindisa ke isandla sam; yaye usizi lwam, lwandixhasa.

6Ndiya kuzinyhasha iintlanga ndinomsindo, ndizinxilise ndinomsindo, ndiwawise emhlabeni amandla azo.

7Ndithanda ukuthetha ubabalo lukaYehova, indumiso kaYehova ngako konke asenzele kona uYehova, nokulunga okukhulu kwindlu kaSirayeli awayibonakalisayo kubo ngokobabalo lwakhe nangokwengxokolo yeentlanga ububele bakhe.

8Ngokuba wathi, Bangabantu bam okwenyaniso, oonyana abangaxokiyo; ngoko ke waba nguMsindisi wabo.

9Kuko konke ukubandezeleka kwabo babecinezelwe, yaza ingelosi yobuso bakhe yabasindisa; ngothando lwakhe nangenceba yakhe wabakhulula ngokumisela yena; wawathwala, wawathwala yonke imihla yamandulo.

10Bamphikisa ke uMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele; ke waba lutshaba lwabo, walwa nabo.

11Wacinga ngeemini zamandulo, uMoses nabantu bakhe, wathi, Uphi na lowo wabakhuphayo elwandle, umalusi womhlambi wakhe? Uphi yena owafaka umoya oyingcwele kuye?

12owabakhokela ngasekunene kukaMoses ngesandla sakhe esikhazimlayo, waza wawahlulahlula amanzi phambi kwabo ukuba enze igama lakhe ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo?

13Ngubani na owabakhokelela enzulwini, njengehashe entlango, ukuba bangakhubeki?

14Njengenkomo ehla iye entilini, uMoya kaYehova wayiphumza; wenjenje ukubakhokela abantu bakho, ukuze uzenzele igama elizukileyo.

15Khangela usemazulwini, ubone ukuba usententeni yakho engcwele enobungangamsha; kungakanani na kum ukuzondelela kwakho, namandla akho, nesandi sezibilini zakho, neenceba zakho? babanjwe?

16Yena ungubawo wethu okunene, nakuba uAbraham engasazi, noSirayeli engasazi; Wena, Yehova, ungubawo, wena ungumsindisi wethu; igama lakho likho kwasephakadeni.

17Yini na, Yehova, ukuba usilahlekise ezindleleni zakho, uyiqaqadekise intliziyo yethu, ukuze singakoyiki wena? Buya ngenxa yabakhonzi bakho, izizukulwana zelifa lakho.

18Abantu bakho abangcwele balihlutha umzuzwana; ababandezeli bethu bayayihlambela ingcwele yakho.

19Singabakho; akubalawulanga; ababizwa ngegama lakho.
