< Isaiah 45 >

1 Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Koresh, whose right hand I have held, to subdue nations before him, and strip kings of their armor; to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
“Zvanzi naJehovha kumuzodziwa wake, kuna Sirasi, ane ruoko rworudyi rwandakabata kuti akunde ndudzi pamberi pake, uye kuti atorere madzimambo zvombo zvavo, kuti ndizarure mikova pamberi pake, masuo agorega kupfigwa:
2 "I will go before you, and make the mountains level. I will break the doors of bronze in pieces, and cut apart the bars of iron.
Ndichaenda mberi kwako uye ndichaenzanisa makomo; ndichaputsa masuo endarira uye ndichacheka ndigopinda napamazariro esimbi.
3 I will give you the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, the LORD, who call you by your name, even the God of Israel.
Ndichakupa pfuma yerima, upfumi hwakavigwa panzvimbo dzakavanda, kuti uzive kuti ndini Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, anokudana nezita rako.
4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have surnamed you, though you have not known me.
Nokuda kwaJakobho muranda wangu, nokwaIsraeri musanangurwa wangu, ndinokudana nezita rako, uye ndinoisa pamusoro pako zita rokukudzwa, kunyange iwe usingandizivi.
5 I am the LORD, and there is no other. Besides me, there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not known me;
Ndini Jehovha, uye hakuna mumwe; kunze kwangu ini hakuna Mwari. Ndichakusimbisa, kunyange usina kundiziva,
6 that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none besides me. I am the LORD, and there is no one else.
kuti kubva kumabudazuva kusvikira kwarinovirira, vanhu vazive kuti hakuna mumwe kunze kwangu. Ndini Jehovha uye hakuna mumwe.
7 I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am the LORD, who does all these things.
Ndinoumba chiedza uye ndinosika rima, ndinoita rugare uye ndinosika njodzi; ini Jehovha, ndini ndinoita zvinhu izvi zvose.
8 Distil, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may bring forth salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, the LORD, have created it.
“Imi matenga kumusoro, nayisai kururama; makore ngaakudonhedze pasi. Nyika ngaizaruke kwazvo, ruponeso ngarutubuke, kururama ngakukure pamwe chete narwo; ini Jehovha, ndini ndakazvisika.
9 Woe to him who strives with his Maker, a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth. Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, 'What are you making?' or your work, 'He has no hands?'
“Ane nhamo uyo anokakavadzana noMuiti wake, iye anongova chaenga pakati pezvaenga pamusoro pevhu. Ko, ivhu ringati kumuumbi, ‘Uri kugadzirei?’ Ko, basa rako rinoti here, ‘Uyu haana maoko?’
10 Woe to him who says to a father, 'What have you become the father of?' or to a mother, 'To what have you given birth?'"
Ane nhamo uyo anoti kuna baba vake, ‘Chiiko chamakabereka?’ kana kuna mai vake, ‘Chiiko chamakazvara?’
11 Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: "You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you command me concerning the work of my hands.
“Zvanzi naJehovha, iye Mutsvene waIsraeri, noMuiti wake: Pamusoro pezvinhu zvichauya, unondibvunza here pamusoro pavana vangu, kana kundirayira pamusoro pebasa ramaoko angu?
12 I have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens; and I have commanded all their army.
Ndini ndakaita nyika uye ndikasika vanhu vendudzi dzose pamusoro payo. Maoko angu pachangu akatatamura matenga; ndakarayira hondo dzawo dzose dzenyeredzi.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward," says the LORD of hosts.
Ndichamutsa Sirasi mukururama kwangu: ndichaita kuti nzira dzake dzose dzirurame. Achavakazve guta rangu, uye achasunungura vatapwa vangu, asi pasina muripo kana mubayiro, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.”
14 Thus says the LORD: "The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains; and they will bow down to you. They will make petition to you: 'Surely God is in you; and there is no other. There is no other god.
Zvanzi naJehovha: “Zvibereko zveIjipiti nezvinoshambadzirwa zveEtiopia, navaSabhea varefu, vachauya kwauri uye vachava vako; vachatevera mushure mako, vachiuya kwauri vakasungwa nengetani. Vachapfugama pamberi pako uye vachakunyengetedza, vachiti, ‘Zvirokwazvo Mwari anewe, uye hakunazve mumwe; hakuna mumwe mwari.’”
15 Most certainly you are a God who hid yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.'"
Zvechokwadi muri Mwari anozvivanza, imi Mwari noMuponesi waIsraeri.
16 They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
Vose vanoita zvifananidzo vachava nenyadzi uye vachanyadziswa, vachasvika pakunyadziswa pamwe chete.
17 Israel will be saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
Asi Israeri achaponeswa naJehovha noruponeso rusingaperi; hamuchazombonyadziswi kana kuva nenyadzi, kusvikira kumakore asingaperi.
18 For thus says the LORD who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and did not create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited: "I am the LORD, and there is no other.
Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, iye akasika matenga, ndiye Mwari; iye akaumba uye akaita nyika, ndiye akaisimbisa; haana kuisikira kuti igare isina chinhu, asi akaiumba kuti igarwe, anoti: “Ndini Jehovha, uye hakuna mumwe.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I did not say to the descendants of Jacob, 'Seek me in vain.' I, the LORD, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.
Handina kutaura ndiri pakavanda, ndichibva kumwe kunyika yerima; handina kuti kuvana vaJakobho, ‘Nditsvakei pasina.’ Ini, Jehovha ndinotaura chokwadi; ndinoparidza zvakarurama.
20 Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that can't save.
“Unganai pamwe chete muuye; unganai, imi vatizi vanobva kune dzimwe ndudzi. Vose vanotakura mifananidzo yamatanda havazivi, vanonyengetera kuna vamwari vasingagoni kuponesa.
21 Declare and bring it forth. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who announced this from long ago, has told it from then? Was it not I, the LORD? And there is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior; there is no one besides me.
Paridzai zvichauya, muzvibudise pachena: ngavarangane pamwe chete. Ndianiko akazvitaura kare, ndiani akazvireva kubva kare nakare? Handizini Jehovha here? Uye kunze kwangu ini hakuna Mwari, Mwari akarurama noMuponesi; hakuna mumwe asi ini.
22 Look to me, and be saved, every part of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
“Dzokerai kwandiri mugoponeswa, imi mose migumo yenyika; nokuti ndini Mwari, uye hakuna mumwe.
23 By myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear to God.
Ndakapika neni pachangu, muromo wangu wakataura nokururama kwose shoko risingazoshandurwi: Mabvi ose achapfugama pamberi pangu; ndimi dzose dzichapika neni.
24 Only in the LORD, it is said of me, is righteousness and strength; even to him shall men come; and all those who were incensed against him shall be disappointed.
Vachati pamusoro pangu, ‘Muna Jehovha chete ndimo muno kururama nesimba.’” Vose vakamutsamwira vachauya kwaari uye vachanyadziswa.
25 In the LORD shall all the descendants of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Asi rudzi rwose rwaIsraeri ruchawanikwa rwakarurama muna Jehovha uye ruchafara.
