< Isaiah 58 >
1 "Cry aloud, do not spare, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.
“Danidzira nesimba, usanyarara. Simudza inzwi rako sehwamanda. Paridzira vanhu vangu kupanduka kwavo, neimba yaJakobho zvivi zvavo.
2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways: as a nation that did righteousness, and did not forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.
Nokuti zuva nezuva vanonditsvaka; vanoita savane chido chokuziva nzira dzangu, kunge vanga vari rudzi runoita zvakanaka uye rusina kusiya mirayiro yaMwari wavo. Vanondikumbira kutonga kwakarurama sokunge vanofarira kuti Mwari auye pedyo navo.
3 'Why have we fasted,' say they, 'and you do not see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge?' "Look, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
Vanoti, ‘Takatsanyireiko, uye imi mukasazviona? Takazvininipisireiko, imi mukasazviona?’ “Asi pazuva rokutsanya kwenyu munoita zvamunoda muchimanikidza vashandi venyu.
4 Look, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness: you do not fast this day so as to make your voice to be heard on high.
Kutsanya kwenyu kunogumisira mukukakavadzana nemhirizhonga, uye kurovana netsiva dzakaipisisa. Hamungatsanyi sezvamunoita mazuva ano, mugotarisira kuti inzwi renyu richanzwika kumusoro.
5 Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
Ko, ndiko here kutsanya kwandakasarudza, zuva rimwe chete rokuti munhu azvininipise? Ndezvokukotamisa musoro chete sorushanga here, nokungovata pamusoro penguo dzamasaga namadota? Ndiko kwamunoti kutsanya here, pazuva rinodikanwa naJehovha?
6 "Isn't this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
“Uku handiko kutsanya kwandakasarudza here: Kusunungura ngetani dzokusaruramisira nokusunungura zvitirobho zvejoko, kusunungura vakamanikidzwa nokuvhuna joko rimwe nerimwe?
7 Isn't it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?
Hakuzi kugoverana zvokudya zvako nevane nzara, nokupa varombo vanodzungaira pokugara here, paunoona vakashama, kuvapfekedza, uye kusafuratira venyama neropa rako?
8 Then your light shall break forth as the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedily; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Ipapo chiedza chako chichabuda samambakwedza, uye kuporeswa kwako kucharatidzwa nokukurumidza; ipapo kururama kwako kuchakutungamirira, uye kubwinya kwaJehovha kuchakurinda mumashure.
9 Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' "If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly;
Ipapo uchadana, Jehovha achakupindura; uchadanidzira uchida rubatsiro, uye iye achati: Ndiri pano. “Kana ukabvisa joko roudzvinyiriri, kutendeka nomunwe nokutaura kwakaipa,
10 and if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then your light shall rise in darkness, and your obscurity be as the noonday;
uye ukapa zvokudya zvako kune vane nzara uye ukagutsa vakamanikidzwa pakushaya kwavo, ipapo chiedza chako chichabuda murima, uye usiku hwako huchashanduka hukafanana namasikati.
11 and the LORD will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and make strong your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
Jehovha achakutungamirira nguva dzose; achakugutsa pakushaya kwako munyika yakapiswa nezuva uye achasimbisa mapfupa ako. Uchafanana nebindu rinodiridzwa nemvura yetsime, sechitubu chine mvura isingapwi.
12 Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
Vanhu vako vachavakazve matongo akare vachasimudza nheyo dzakare; iwe uchanzi Mugadziri waMasvingo Akakoromoka, Muvandudzi weMigwagwa ine Dzimba.
13 "If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honorable; and shall honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
“Kana ukachengeta tsoka dzako kuti dzisaputsa Sabata, uye kuti dzisaita zvinokufadza iwe pazuva rangu dzvene, kana ukati Sabata izuva rinofadza, uye ukati zuva dzvene raJehovha izuva rinokudzwa, uye kana ukarikudza nokusafamba munzira yako, uye usingaiti zvinokufadza kana kutaura mashoko asina maturo,
14 then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:" for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
ipapo uchawana mufaro wako muna Jehovha, uye ndichakuita kuti ukwire pakakwirira penyika, uye ndichakugutsa nenhaka yababa vako Jakobho.” Muromo waJehovha wazvitaura.
