Yesaya 27
1 Tsiku limenelo, Yehova ndi lupanga lake lakuthwa, lalikulu ndi lamphamvu, adzalanga Leviyatani chinjoka chothawa chija, Leviyatani chinjoka chodzikulunga; adzapha chirombo choopsa cha mʼnyanja.
In that day God shall bring [his] holy and great and strong sword upon the dragon, even the serpent that flees, upon the dragon, the crooked serpent: he shall destroy the dragon.
2 Tsiku limenelo Yehova adzati, “Tidzayimba nyimbo ya munda wamphesa wobereka bwino:
In that day [there shall be] a fair vineyard, [and] a desire to commence [a song] concerning it.
3 Ine, Yehova, ndimawuyangʼanira; ndimawuthirira nthawi zonse. Ndimawulondera usana ndi usiku kuti wina angawononge.
I am a strong city, a city in a siege: in vain shall I water it; for it shall be taken by night, and by day the wall shall fall.
4 Ine sindinakwiye. Ngati mkandankhuku ndi minga zikanaoneka ndikanalimbana nazo! Ndikachita nazo nkhondo; ndikanazitentha zonse ndi moto.
There is no woman that has not taken hold of it; who will set me to watch stubble in the field? because of this enemy I have set her aside; therefore on this account the Lord has done all that he appointed.
5 Koma ngati apo ayi, abweretu kwa Ine adani angawo kuti ndidzawateteze; apangane nane za mtendere, ndithu, apangane nane za mtendere.”
I am burnt up; they that dwell in her shall cry, Let us make peace with him, let us make peace,
6 Masiku akubwerawo Yakobo adzazika mizu, Israeli adzaphukira ndi kuchita maluwa, ndipo adzadzaza dziko lonse lapansi ndi zipatso.
they that are coming are the children of Jacob. Israel shall bud and blossom, and the world shall be filled with his fruit.
7 Kodi Yehova anakantha Israeli ngati momwe anakanthira anthu amene anazunza Israeli? Kapena kodi Yehova anapha Israeli ngati mmene anthu ena anaphera Israeli?
Shall he himself be thus struck, even as he struck? and as he killed, shall he be thus slain?
8 Yehova mwawalanga powapirikitsa ndi kuwatumiza ku ukapolo, mwawachotsa ndi mpweya wanu woopsa, monga zimachitikira pa tsiku la mkuntho wochokera kummawa.
Fighting and reproaching he will dismiss them; did you not meditate with a harsh spirit, to kill them with a wrathful spirit?
9 Yehova adzakhululuka kulakwa kwa Yakobo. Iwo adzaonetsa kuti alapadi pamene adzaphwanya miyala yonse ya guwa lachikunja, ngati mmene anthu amaphwanyira miyala yanjereza mpaka kukhala ngati fumbi lokhalokha. Sipadzapezekanso mafano a Asera kapena maguwa ofukiza lubani.
Therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be taken away; and this is his blessing, when I shall have taken away his sin; when they shall have broken to pieces all the stones of the altars as fine dust, and their trees shall not remain, and their idols shall be cut off, as a thicket afar off.
10 Mzinda wamalinga uja wasanduka bwinja, wasanduka malo osiyidwa, ndi kutayidwa ngati chipululu; kumeneko amadyetselako ana angʼombe kumeneko zimapumulako ziweto ndi kumwetula nthambi za mitengo kotheratu.
The flock that lived [there] shall be left, as a deserted flock; and [the ground] shall be for a long time for pasture, and there shall flocks lie down to rest.
11 Pamene nthambi za mitengoyo zauma, zimathyoka ndipo amayi amabwera nazitola ndi kuzisandutsa nkhuni. Pakuti awa ndi anthu opanda nzeru; kotero Mulungu amene anawapanga sadzachitira chisoni, ndipo Mlengi wawo sawakomera mtima.
And after a time there shall be in it no green thing because of [the grass] being parched. Come hither, you women that come from a sight; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore he that made them shall have no pity upon them, and he that formed them shall have no mercy [upon them].
12 Tsiku limenelo Yehova adzasonkhanitsa pamodzi anthu ake mmodzimmodzi kumalo opunthira tirigu, kuchokera ku mtsinje wa Yufurate mpaka ku mtsinje wa ku Igupto.
And it shall come to pass in that day [that] God shall fence [men] off from the channel of the river as far as Rhinocorura; but do you gather one by one the children of Israel.
13 Ndipo tsiku limenelo lipenga lalikulu lidzalira. Amene akuzunzika ku Asiriya iwo amene ali ku ukapolo ku Igupto adzabwera ndi kudzalambira Yehova pa phiri lopatulika mu Yerusalemu.
And it shall come to pass in that day [that] they shall blow the great trumpet, and the lost ones in the land of the Assyrians shall come, and the lost ones in Egypt, and shall worship the Lord on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
