Isaiah 17
1 [the] oracle of Damascus there! Damascus [is] about to be removed from a city and it will be a ruin of a ruin.
Chirevo pamusoro peDhamasiko: “Tarirai, Dhamasiko harichazovazve guta, asi richava murwi wamatongo.
2 [will be] abandoned [the] cities of Aroer for flocks they will be and they will lie down and there not [will be one who] terrifies.
Maguta eAroeri achasiyiwa uye achava mafuro ezvipfuyo, izvo zvichavata pasi, pasina anozvivhundutsa.
3 And it will cease fortress from Ephraim and kingship from Damascus and [the] remnant of Aram like [the] glory of [the] people of Israel they will be [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.
Maguta akakomberedzwa namasvingo achanyangarika achibva pana Efuremu, uye simba roushe kubva paDhamasiko; vakasara veAramu vachava sembiri yavaIsraeri,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
4 And it will be in the day that it will become low [the] glory of Jacob and [the] fatness of flesh its it will be made lean.
“Pazuva iro kukudzwa kwaJakobho kuchapera; mafuta omuviri wake achapera.
5 And it will be like [the] gathering of a harvest of standing grain and arm his ears of grain someone will reap and it will be like [one who] gathers ears of grain in [the] valley of Rephaim.
Zvichafanana nomukohwi anokohwa madzinde akamira, uyo anokohwa zviyo noruoko rwake, sezvinoita murume anononga hura dzezviyo muMupata weRefaimi.
6 And it will be left in it gleanings like [the] beating of an olive tree two three olives at [the] top of [the] tree-top four five on branches its fruit-bearing [the] utterance of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
Kunyange zvakadaro dzimwe tsanga dzichasara, sezvinoita muorivhi kana wazunzwa, uchisiya maorivhi maviri kana matatu pamatavi okumusoro-soro, mana kana mashanu pamatavi makuru anobereka,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Mwari waIsraeri.
7 In the day that he will look person on maker his and eyes his to [the] holy [one] of Israel they will see.
Pazuva iro vanhu vachatarira kuMusiki wavo, vagodzorera meso avo kuMutsvene waIsraeri.
8 And not he will look to the altars [the] work of hands his and [that] which they have made fingers his not he will see and the Asherah poles and the incense altars.
Havachazotarisi kuaritari, iro basa ramaoko avo, uye havachazovi nehanya nematanda aAshera nearitari dzezvinonhuhwira dzakaitwa neminwe yavo.
9 In the day that they will be - [the] cities of refuge his like [the] forsaken [place] of the forest and the tree-top which they abandoned because of [the] people of Israel and it will be a desolation.
Pazuva iro maguta avo akasimba avakasiya nokuda kwavaIsraeri, achafanana nenzvimbo dzakaregerwa kuti dzive matenhere nezvinomera pasi pavo. Uye ose achava matongo.
10 For you have forgotten [the] God of salvation your and [the] rock of refuge your not you have remembered there-fore you plant plantations of pleasantness and [the] vine branch of a stranger you sow it.
Nokuti wakanganwa Mwari Muponesi wako, hauna kurangarira Dombo, iyo nhare yako. Naizvozvo, kunyange ukazvisimira miti yakanakisisa, uye ukadyara mizambiringa inobva kune dzimwe nyika,
11 On [the] day of planting your you cause to grow and in the morning seed your you cause to sprout a heap a harvest in a day of [being] sick and pain incurable.
kunyange pazuva raunoisima, ugoita kuti ikure, ugoita kuti ive namaruva, asi mukohwo uchava sapasina pazuva rehosha nokurwadziwa kusingarapiki.
12 Woe to! [the] tumult of peoples many as roar [the] seas they roar! and [the] uproar of nations like [the] uproar of waters mighty they are in an uproar!
Haiwa, kutinhira kwendudzi zhinji, dzinotinhira sokutinhira kwegungwa! Haiwa, kuomba kwamarudzi anoomba kufanana nokutinhira kwemvura zhinji!
13 Nations like [the] uproar of waters many they are in an uproar! and he will rebuke it and it will flee from a distance and it will be chased like chaff of mountains before a wind and like whirling dust before a storm-wind.
Kunyange vanhu vakaomba sokutinhira kwamafungu emvura, paanovatuka vachatizira kure, vachidzingirirwa nemhepo sehundi pamusoro pezvikomo, kufanana nouswa hunozungunuswa pamberi pedutu guru.
14 To a time of evening and there! sudden terror before morning there not [is] it this [will be] [the] portion of [those who] plunder us and [the] lot of [those who] despoil us.
Munguva yamadekwana, pachava nokutyisa! Kusati kwaedza, havachipo! Uyu ndiwo mugove wavaya vanotibira, nomubayiro wavanotipamba.
