Isaiah 19
1 The oracle on Egypt: Lo! Yahweh, riding upon a swift cloud, and he will enter Egypt, And the idols of Egypt shall shake at his presence, And, the heart of Egypt, shall melt within him;
Chirevo pamusoro peIjipiti: Tarirai, Jehovha akatasva gore rinomhanya, uye ari kuuya kuIjipiti. Zvifananidzo zveIjipiti zviri kudedera pamberi pake, uye mwoyo yavaIjipita yonyungudika mukati mavo.
2 And I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians, And they shall fight—Every one against his brother and Every one against his neighbour, —City against city, and Kingdom against kingdom.
“Ndichakuchidzira kumukirana pakati pavaIjipita, mununʼuna acharwa nomukoma, muvakidzani acharwa nowaakavakidzana naye, guta richarwisana nerimwe guta, umambo hucharwisana nohumwe umambo.
3 And the spirit of Egypt, shall vanish, within them, Yea the sagacity thereof, will I swallow up, —And they will seek Unto the idols and Unto them that mutter, and Unto them that have familiar spirits, and Unto the wizards;
VaIjipita vachaora mwoyo, uye ndichaita kuti zvavanoronga zvive pasina; vachabvunza zvifananidzo nemweya yavakafa, nokumasvikiro navavuki.
4 And I will deliver the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord, —And a fierce king shall rule over them, Declareth the Lord, Yahweh of hosts.
Ndichaisa vaIjipita mumaoko amambo ano utsinye uye mambo anotyisa achatonga pamusoro pavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
5 And the waters shall be dried up from the great stream, —And the River, shall waste and be dry;
Mvura yomurwizi ichapwa, uye mahombekombe erwizi achapwa agova akaoma.
6 And rivers, shall stink, The canals of Egypt be shallow and waste, Reed and rush, be withered;
Migero ichanhuhwa; hova dzeIjipiti dzichaderera uye dzichapwa. Tsanga nenhokwe zvichauna,
7 The meadows by the Nile, by the mouth of the Nile. And all that is sown in the Nile, Shall be dry, driven away, and not be!
uyewo zvinomera zvichitevedza Nairi, pamuromo werwizi. Minda yose yakadyarwa mujinga meNairi ichaoma, mbesa dzichapeperetswa nemhepo, hazvingazovapozve.
8 Then shall the fishers, lament, And all shall mourn who cast in the Nile a hook, —And they who spread nets on the face of the waters shall languish;
Vabati vehove vachagomera uye vagorira, vose vanokanda zviredzo muna Nairi; vaya vanokanda mimbure pamusoro pemvura vacharukutika.
9 Then shall turn pale The workers in combed flax, —and The weavers of white linen;
Vanobata neshinda yakanaka vachapera simba, varuki vemicheka yakanaka vachashaya tariro.
10 Then shall her pillars be crushed, —All who make wages, be bowed down in soul.
Vanobata nemicheka vachaora mwoyo, uye vose vanobatira mubayiro vacharwadziwa mwoyo.
11 Surely, foolish, are the princes of Zoan, the wisest counsellors of Pharaoh, in counsel are brutish, —How can ye say unto Pharaoh, Son of the wise, am I Son of the kings of olden time?
Machinda eZoani haasi chinhu asi mapenzi; makurukota aFaro akachenjera anopa zano risina mano. Mungareva sei kuna Faro, kuti, “Ndini mumwe wavakachenjera, mudzidzi wamadzimambo akare?”
12 Where then are thy wise men? Pray let them tell thee! And let them know what Yahweh of hosts hath purposed on Egypt!
Zvino vakachenjera venyu varipiko? Ngavakuratidzei uye vakuzivisei zvakafungwa naJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro peIjipiti.
13 Doting are the princes of Zoan, Deceived are the princes of Noph: They who are the corner-stone of her tribes, have led Egypt astray.
Machinda eZoani ava mapenzi, vatungamiri veMemufisi vanyengerwa; mabwe ekona amarudzi avo atsausa Ijipiti.
14 Yahweh, hath infused in her midst, a spirit of perverseness, —And they have led Egypt astray into all his own doings, As a drunken man staggereth into his own vomit;
Jehovha akadururira mavari mweya wedzungu; vanoita kuti Ijipiti idzedzereke mune zvose zvainoita, sezvinoita chidhakwa chinodzedzereka mumarutsi acho.
15 And Egypt shall have nothing which can be done, Which head or tail, palm-top or rush, can do!
Hapana chingaitwa neIjipiti, musoro kana muswe, davi romuchindwe kana rushanga.
16 In that day, shall Egypt be like unto women, —And shall start and tremble because of the brandishing of the hand of Yahweh of hosts, which he is about to brandish over it.
Pazuva iro, vaIjipita vachafanana navakadzi. Vachadedera nokutya panosimudzwa ruoko rwaJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro pavo.
17 Then shall the soil of Judah become, to Egypt, a terror; Every one to whom it is mentioned, will tremble, —Because of the purpose of Yahweh of hosts, which he is purposing against it.
Uye nyika yeJudha ichava chinhu chinotyisa kuvaIjipita; mumwe nomumwe achanzwa nezvaJudha achatya, nokuda kwezvinofungwa naJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro pavo.
18 In that day, shall there be five cities in the land of Egypt Speaking the language of Canaan, And swearing unto Yahweh of hosts, —The city of destruction, shall be the name of one!
Pazuva iro, maguta mashanu omuIjipiti achataura mutauro weKenani uye vachapikira vachazvipira kuna Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. Rimwe racho richanzi Guta roKuparadza.
19 In that day, shall there be An altar unto Yahweh, in the midst of the land of Egypt, —And a pillar near the boundary thereof unto Yahweh;
Pazuva iro, pachava nearitari kuna Jehovha mukati chaimo meIjipiti, nembiru kuna Jehovha pamuganhu wayo.
20 And it shall become a sign and a witness unto Yahweh of hosts in the land of Egypt, —For they will make outcry unto Yahweh, because of oppressors, That he would send them a saviour—and a great one Then will he deliver them.
Ichava chiratidzo nechapupu kuna Jehovha Wamasimba Ose munyika yeIjipiti. Pavanodanidzira kuna Jehovha nokuda kwavamanikidzi vavo, achavatumira muponesi nomurwiri, ipapo achavanunura.
21 Then will, Yahweh, make himself known, to the Egyptians, So shall the Egyptians know, Yahweh, in that day, —And they will offer a sacrifice and a present And will vow a vow unto Yahweh and will perform.
Saka Jehovha achazviratidza kuvaIjipita, uye pazuva iro vachaziva Jehovha. Vachanamata nezvibayiro uye nezvipiriso zvezviyo; vachaita mhiko kuna Jehovha uye vagodzichengeta.
22 And Yahweh, will plague Egypt, plague and heal, —And they will turn unto Yahweh And he will be entreated of them and will heal them.
Jehovha acharova Ijipiti nehosha; acharova agovarapazve. Vachatendeukira kuna Jehovha, uye achapindura mikumbiro yavo nokuvarapa.
23 In that day, shall there be a highway. from Egypt to Assyria, And, the Assyrians, shall come into Egypt, And, the Egyptians, into Assyria; And, the Egyptians shall serve, with the Assyrians.
Pazuva iro, pachava nenzira huru ichabva kuIjipiti ichienda kuAsiria. VaAsiria vachaenda kuIjipiti uye vaIjipita vachaendawo kuAsiria. VaIjipita navaAsiria vachanamata pamwe chete.
24 In that day, shall, Israel, be, a third, with Egypt and with Assyria, —A blessing in the midst of the earth:
Pazuva iro Israeri ichava yechitatu, ichitevera Ijipiti neAsiria, ichava ropafadzo panyika.
25 Whom Yahweh of hosts hath blessed saying, —Blessed, be My people—the Egyptians, And the work of my hands—the Assyrians, And mine own inheritance—Israel.
Jehovha Wamasimba Ose achavaropafadza achiti, “Ngavaropafadzwe vaIjipita vanhu vangu, navaAsiria, basa ramaoko angu, navaIsraeri, nhaka yangu.”
