Isaiah 6
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
Mugore rakafa Mambo Uziya, ndakaona Ishe agere pachigaro choushe, chirefu chakakwirira uye mupendero wenguo dzake wakazadza temberi.
2 Above him stood the seraphim. Each one had six wings, with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
Kumusoro kwake kwaiva neserafimi, imwe neimwe yaiva namapapiro matanhatu: namapapiro maviri, dzakafukidza uso hwadzo, namaviri dzakafukidza makumbo adzo, uye namaviri dzakanga dzichibhururuka.
3 And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is Jehovah of hosts. The whole earth is full of his glory.
Zvino imwe yaidanidzira kune imwe ichiti: “Mutsvene, mutsvene, mutsvene, iye Jehovha Wamasimba Ose; nyika yose izere nokubwinya kwake.”
4 And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who cried, and the house was filled with vapor.
Nokutinhira kwamanzwi adzo, nheyo dzezvikumbaridzo dzakazungunuka uye temberi yakazadzwa noutsi.
5 Then I said, Woe is me! For I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips. For my eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of hosts.
Ipapo ndakachema ndichiti, “Ndine nhamo! Ndaparara! Nokuti ndiri munhu ane miromo ine tsvina uye ndigere pakati pavanhu vane miromo ine tsvina uye meso angu aona Mambo, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar.
Ipapo imwe yesarafimi yakabhururukira kwandiri ine zimbe romoto muruoko rwayo, rayakanga yatora nembato kubva paaritari.
7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said, Lo, this has touched thy lips, and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin forgiven.
Yakagunzva muromo wangu naro ikati, “Tarira, zimbe iri ragunzva miromo yako; mhosva yako yabviswa uye chivi chako chadzikinurwa.”
8 And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Lo, send me.
Ipapo ndakanzwa inzwi raJehovha richiti, “Ndiani wandichatuma? Uye ndiani achatiendera?” Ini ndakati, “Ndiri pano! Nditumei!”
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but do not understand, and see ye indeed, but do not perceive.
Iye akati, “Enda undoudza vanhu ava uti, “‘Munogara muchinzwa, asi hamumbonzwisisi; munogara muchiona, asi hamuonesesi.’
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn, and be healed.
Ita kuti mwoyo yavanhu ava isindimare; ita kuti nzeve dzavo dzisanzwisise uye vatsinzine meso avo. Nokuti vangaona nameso avo, nokunzwa nenzeve dzavo, vakanzwisisa nemwoyo yavo, vakadzoka vakaporeswa.”
11 Then I said, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
Ipapo ndakati, “Haiwa, Ishe, kusvikira riniko?” Iye akapindura achiti, “Kusvikira maguta ava matongo uye pasisina anogaramo, kusvikira dzimba dzasiyiwa dzisina vanhu, neminda yaparadzwa zvachose,
12 and Jehovah has removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
kusvikira Jehovha adzingira vanhu kure, uye nyika yasiyiwa zvachose.
13 And if there be yet a tenth in it, it also shall in turn be eaten up. As a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remains when they are felled, so the holy seed is the stock of it.
Uye kunyange kukasara chegumi munyika, naichowo chichaparadzwa. Asi somuterabhiniti nomuouki zvichasara zvava zvigutsa pazvinotemwa, saizvozvo rudzi rutsvene ruchavawo sechigutsa munyika.”
