Isaiah 29
1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city of David's encampment! Add ye year to year; let the feasts come round.
Une nhamo iwe Arieri, Arieri, guta raigara Dhavhidhi! Wedzera gore pagore; uye regai nguva dzemitambo yenyu dzirambe dziripo.
2 But I will distress Ariel, and there shall be sorrow and sadness; and it shall be unto me as an Ariel.
Kunyange zvakadaro, ndichakomba Arieri; pachava nokuungudza uye nokuchema, richafanana nechoto chearitari kwandiri.
3 And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with watch-posts, and I will raise forts against thee.
Ndichakukomba kumativi ose; ndichakukomberedza neshongwe uye ndichavaka nhare dzokurwa newe.
4 And thou shalt be brought low, thou shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall come low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.
Uchadzikisirwa pasi, uchataura uri pasi; kutaura kwako kuchabva muguruva. Inzwi rako richava seresvikiro rinobva pasi muvhu; kutaura kwako kuchaita zevezeve kuchibva muguruva.
5 And the multitude of thine enemies shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passeth away; and it shall be in an instant, suddenly.
Asi vavengi vako vazhinji vachava seguruva rakatsetseka, vane utsinye vachafanana nehundi inopepereswa. Pakarepo, nokukurumidza
6 Thou shalt be visited by Jehovah of hosts with thunder and with earthquake and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
Jehovha Wamasimba Ose achauya nokutinhira nokudengenyeka kwenyika, uye nemheremhere huru, nechamupupuri, nedutu guru uye nomurazvo womoto unoparadza zvose.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that war against Ariel, even all that war against her and her fortifications, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
Ipapo mhomho dzendudzi dzose dzakawanda dzinorwa neArieri, dzinorirwisa iro nenhare dzaro uye dzinorikomba, zvichaita sokurota, nechiratidzo chinoonekwa usiku,
8 It shall even be as when the hungry dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; and he awaketh, and his soul is empty; or as when the thirsty dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; and he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul craveth: so shall the multitude of all the nations be that war against mount Zion.
sezvinoitwa nomunhu ane nzara anorota achidya, asi apepuka, anowana nzara yake ichiripo; sezvinoita munhu ane nyota anorota achinwa mvura, asi omuka achiziya, nyota yake isina kupera. Naizvozvo ndizvo zvichaitawo marudzi ose akawanda anorwa neGomo reZioni.
9 Be astounded and astonished, blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
Katyamarai uye mushamiswe, zvipofumadzei muve vasingaoni; dhakwai asi kwete newaini; dzedzerekai asi kwete nedoro.
10 For Jehovah hath poured out upon you a spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets and your chiefs, the seers, hath he covered.
Jehovha akauyisa pamusoro penyu hope huru; Akafukidza meso enyu, vaprofita; akafukidza misoro yenyu, vaoni.
11 And the whole vision is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which they give to one that can read, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot, for it is sealed.
Nokuti kwamuri, chiratidzo ichi hachizi chinhu asi mashoko akanamirwa murugwaro. Uye kana mukapa rugwaro kuno mumwe munhu anogona kuverenga, mukati kwaari, “Ndapota, verenga izvi,” achapindura achiti, “Handikwanisi, nokuti rwakanamirwa.”
12 And they give the book to him that cannot read, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot read.
Kana kuti mukapa rugwaro kuno mumwe asingagoni kuverenga, mukati kwaari, “Ndapota, verenga izvi,” achapindura achiti, “Handigoni kuverenga.”
13 And the Lord saith, Forasmuch as this people draw near with their mouth, and honour me with their lips, but their heart is removed far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment taught of men;
Ishe anoti: “Vanhu ava vanoswedera kwandiri nemiromo yavo, uye vanondikudza nemiromo yavo, asi mwoyo yavo iri kure neni. Kundinamata kwavo kwangova kwemitemo inodzidziswa navanhu chete.
14 therefore, behold, I will proceed to do marvellously with this people, to do marvellously, even with wonder, and the wisdom of their wise [men] shall perish, and the understanding of their intelligent ones shall be hid.
Naizvozvo ndichashamisa vanhu ava zvakare nechishamiso pamusoro pechishamiso; uchenjeri hwavakachenjera huchaparadzwa, zivo yavane zivo ichapera.”
15 Woe unto them that hide deep, far from Jehovah, their counsel! And their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
Vane nhamo avo vanosvika kwakadzika dzika kuti vavanzire Jehovha mano avo, vanoita mabasa avo murima vachifunga mumwoyo yavo kuti, “Ndiani anotiona? Ndiani achaziva?”
16 [Oh] your perverseness! — Shall the potter be esteemed as the clay, so that the work should say of him that made it, He made me not; or the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding?
Munoshandura mamiriro ezvinhu, sezvinonzi muumbi wehari anonzi ndiye ivhu! Ko, chakaumbwa chingati kuna iye akachiumba, “Iye haana kundiita?” Ko, hari ingati kumuumbi, “Iye haana chaanoziva?”
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
Ko, Rebhanoni haingashandurwi ikava munda wakaorera muchinguva chidiki, uye munda wakaorera ugoita kunge dondo?
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and, out of obscurity and out of darkness, the eyes of the blind shall see;
Pazuva iro vanamati vachanzwa shoko rorugwaro, uye meso amapofu achaona ari pakasviba naparima.
19 and the meek shall increase their joy in Jehovah, and the needy among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
Zvakare vanozvininipisa vachafara muna Jehovha; vanoshayiwa vachafara muMutsvene waIsraeri.
20 For the terrible one shall come to nought, and the scorner shall be no more, and all that watch for iniquity shall be cut off,
Vane utsinye vachaparadzwa, vaseki vachanyangarika, uye vose vane ziso rinofarira zvakaipa vachaurayiwa,
21 that make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and pervert [the judgment of] the righteous by futility.
avo vanopomera munhu mhosva neshoko chete, vanoisira musungo kuna anoruramisira mudare, uye nouchapupu hwenhema, vanokonesa kururamisirwa kwavasina mhosva.
22 Therefore thus saith Jehovah who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now be pale;
Naizvozvo izvi ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, akadzikinura Abhurahama, achiti kuimba yaJakobho: “Jakobho haachazonyadziswizve; zviso zvavo hazvichazocheneruki.
23 for when he seeth his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall hallow my name, and hallow the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
Pavachaona vana vavo pakati pavo, iro basa ramaoko angu, vachachengeta zita rangu muutsvene; vachaziva utsvene hwoMutsvene waJakobho, uye vachamira vachitya Mwari waIsraeri.
24 And they that are of erring spirit shall know understanding, and the disobedient shall learn doctrine.
Vakarasika pamweya vachawana njere; vanonyunyuta vachagamuchira kurayirwa.”
