< Isaiah 32 >
1 Look, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.
Tarirai mambo achatonga nokururama, uye vatongi vachatonga nokururamisira.
2 A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a shelter from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.
Munhu mumwe nomumwe achafanana nenzvimbo yokuvanda kubva kumhepo, noutiziro kubva pakunaya kwemvura zhinji, sehova dzemvura mugwenga nomumvuri webwe guru munyika yafa nenyota.
3 The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.
Ipapo meso avose vanoona haachazotsinzini, uye nzeve dzavanonzwa dzichateerera.
4 The heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
Ndangariro dzavanokurumidzira zvinhu dzichaziva uye dzichanzwisisa, uye vanokakama vachataura zvakanaka uye zvinonzwika.
5 And they will no longer call a fool noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
Benzi harichazonzi munhu anokudzwa, munhu asina maturo haazoremekedzwi.
6 For the fool will speak folly, and his heart plans iniquity, to practice profanity, and to utter error against YHWH, To make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
Nokuti benzi rinotaura zvoupenzi, ndangariro dzaro dzinofunga zvakaipa: Zvaanoita hazvina umwari uye anoparadzira zvinhu zvakarasika zvisiri zvaJehovha; anosiya vane nzara vasina chinhu uye anonyima mvura vane nyota.
7 The ways of the scoundrel are evil. He devises wicked devices to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
Nzira dzousina maturo dzakaipa, anoita rangano dzakaipa kuti aparadze varombo nenhema, kunyange chichemo chaanoshayiwa chakanaka hacho.
8 But the noble devises noble things; and he will continue in noble things.
Asi munhu anokudzwa anoita urongwa hwakanaka, uye namabasa anokudzwa.
9 Rise up, you women who are at ease. Hear my voice. You careless daughters, give ear to my speech.
Imi vakadzi musina hanya, simukai muteerere kwandiri; imi vanasikana munoti makachengetedzeka, inzwai zvandinoreva!
10 For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage shall fail. The harvest won't come.
Gore risati rapera muchabvunda iyemi munoti makachengetedzeka; nokuti kuchekwa kwamazambiringa kuchakundikana, uye kutanhwa kwemichero hakuchasviki.
11 Tremble, you women who are at ease. Be troubled, you careless ones. Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked, and put sackcloth on your waist.
Dederai, imi vakadzi musina hanya; dederai imi vanasikana munoti makachengetedzeka! Bvisai nguo dzenyu, monerai masaga muzviuno zvenyu.
12 Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
Muzvirove zvipfuva nokuda kweminda yakanaka, nokuda kwezvibereko zvemizambiringa,
13 Thorns and briars will come up on my people's land; yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
uye nokuda kwenyika yavanhu vangu, nyika yamera minzwa norukato, hongu, mucheme nokuda kwedzimba dzose dzamafaro, uye nokuda kweguta rinopururudza iri.
14 For the palace will be forsaken. The populous city will be deserted. The hill and the watchtower will be for dens forever, a delight for wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks;
Nhare dzichasiyiwa, guta roruzha richasara risina munhu; nhare neshongwe zvichava dongo nokusingaperi, mufaro wembongoro, namafuro ezvipfuwo,
15 Until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.
kusvikira Mweya wadururirwa pamusoro pedu uchibva kumusoro, uye gwenga rava nyika yakaorera, nemunda wakaorera wava sesango.
16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
Kururamisira kuchagara kugwenga uye kururama kuchagara kumunda wakaorera.
17 The work of righteousness will be peace; and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
Chibereko chokururama chichava rugare; uye chibereko chokururama chichava runyararo nokuvimba nokusingaperi.
18 My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
Vanhu vangu vachagara munzvimbo dzorugare, mumisha yakachengetedzeka, munzvimbo dzokuzorora dzakadzikama.
19 And it will hail when the forest comes down, and the wood is brought low in humiliation.
Kunyange chimvuramabwe chikafukidza sango, neguta rikaparadzwa zvachose,
20 Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who set free the foot of the ox and the donkey.
ucharopafadzwa zvakadiniko, uchidyara mbeu dzako pedyo nehova dzose, uye uchirega mombe nembongoro dzako zvichifura zvakasununguka!
