Yesaya 46
1 Beli wagwada pansi, Nebo wawerama; nyama zonyamula katundu za nyamula milungu yawo. Mafano awo asanduka katundu wolemera pa msana pa ngʼombe. Asandukadi ngati katundu pa msana pa nyama zotopa.
He has bowed down Bel [is] stooping low Nebo they belong idols their to the animal[s] and to the cattle burdens your [are] carried a load for a weary [animal].
2 Nyamazo zikuwerama ndi kufuna kugwa ndi milunguyo; sizikutha kupulumutsa katunduyo, izo zomwe zikupita ku ukapolo.
They have stooped low they have bowed down together not they have been able to rescue a burden and self their in captivity it has gone.
3 Mverani Ine, Inu nyumba ya Yakobo, inu nonse otsala a mʼnyumba ya Israeli, Ine ndakhala ndi kukusamalirani kuyambira mʼmimba ya amayi anu, ndakhala ndikukunyamulani chibadwire chanu.
Listen to me O house of Jacob and all [the] remnant of [the] house of Israel who have been carried from [the] belly who have been borne from [the] womb.
4 Mpaka pamene mudzakalambe ndi kumera imvi ndidzakusamalirani ndithu. Ndinakulengani ndipo ndidzakunyamulani, ndidzakusamalirani ndi kukulanditsani.
And until old age I [am] he and until gray hair I I will carry I I made and I I will bear and I I will carry and I may rescue.
5 “Kodi inu mudzandifanizira ndi yani, kapena mufananitsa ndi yani? Kodi mudzandiyerekeza kapena kundifanizitsa ndi yani?
To whom? will you liken me and you may make [me] equal? and will you compare? me and we may be alike.
6 Anthu ena amakhuthula golide mʼzikwama zawo ndipo amayeza siliva pa masikelo; amalemba ntchito mʼmisiri wosula kuti awapangire mulungu, kenaka iwo amagwada pansi ndikupembedza kamulunguko.
Those [who] pour out gold from a bag and silver on scale[s] they weigh out they hire a metalsmith and he makes it a god they prostrate themselves also they bow down.
7 Amanyamula nʼkumayenda nayo milunguyo pa mapewa awo; amayikhazika pa malo pake ndipo imakhala pomwepo. Singathe kusuntha pamalo pakepo. Ngakhale wina apemphere kwa milunguyo singathe kuyankha; kapena kumupulumutsa ku mavuto ake.
They lift up it on a shoulder they carry it and they set down it in place its so it may stand from place its not it departs also he cries out to it and not it answers from trouble his not it delivers him.
8 “Kumbukirani zimenezi ndipo muchite manyazi, Muzilingalire mu mtima, inu anthu owukira.
Remember this and pluck up courage bring [it] back O rebels on heart.
9 Kumbukirani zinthu zakale zinthu zamakedzana; chifukwa Ine ndine Mulungu ndipo palibe wina ofanana nane.
Remember former [things] from long ago for I [am] God and there not [is] yet God and there not [is] like me.
10 Ndinaneneratu zakumathero kuchokera pachiyambi pomwe. Kuyambira nthawi yamakedzana ndinaloseratu zoti zidzachitike. Ndikanena zimene ndifuna kuchita ndipo zimachitikadi. Chilichonse chimene ndafuna ndimachichita.
[one who] declares From [the] beginning [the] end and from antiquity [things] which not they have been done [one who] says purpose my it will be fulfilled and all desire my I will accomplish.
11 Ndikuyitana chiwombankhanga kuchokera kummawa. Ndikuyitana kuchokera ku dziko lakutali munthu amene adzakwaniritsa cholinga changa. Zimene ndanena ndidzazikwaniritsadi; zimene ndafuna ndidzazichitadi.
[one who] calls From [the] east a bird of prey from a land of distance a man of (purpose my *Q(K)*) also I have spoken also I will bring it I have planned also I will accomplish it.
12 Ndimvereni, inu anthu owuma mtima, inu amene muli kutali ndi chipulumutso.
Listen to me O [people] mighty of heart O [people] distant from righteousness.
13 Ndikubweretsa pafupi tsiku la chipulumutso changa; sichili kutali. Tsikulo layandikira ndipo sindidzachedwa kukupulumutsani ndi kupereka ulemerero wanga kwa Israeli.
I have brought near righteousness my not it is far away and salvation my not it will delay and I will give in Zion salvation to Israel splendor my.
