Isaiah 47
1 Go down - and sit on [the] dust O virgin of [the] daughter of Babylon sit to the ground there not [is] a throne O daughter of [the] Chaldeans for not you will repeat people will call you tender and delicate.
“Buruka, ugare muguruva, iwe Mhandara yeBhabhironi; gara pasi usina chigaro choushe, iwe Mhandara yavaBhabhironi. Hauchazonzi uri munyoro kana munhu akapfava.
2 Take a hand-mill and grind flour uncover veil your strip off a skirt uncover a leg pass through rivers.
Tora makuyo ukuye upfu; bvisa vhoiri rako. Fukura nguo dzako, makumbo ako aonekwe, uyambuke hova.
3 Let it be uncovered nakedness your also let it be visible reproach your vengeance I will take and not I will meet anyone.
Kushama kwako kuchava pachena, uye kunyadzwa kwako kuchaonekwa. Ndichatsiva; handizosiyi munhu.”
4 Redeemer our [is] Yahweh of hosts name his [the] holy [one] of Israel.
Mudzikinuri wedu, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose ndiro zita rake; ndiye Mutsvene waIsraeri.
5 Sit silently and go in darkness O daughter of [the] Chaldeans for not you will repeat people will call you queen of kingdoms.
Gara unyerere, enda murima, Mhandara yavaBhabhironi; hauchazonzi mambokadzi wenyika dzakasiyana-siyana.
6 I was angry towards people my I profaned inheritance my and I gave them in hand your not you appointed to them compassion on [the] old you made heavy yoke your exceedingly.
Ndakatsamwira vanhu vangu ndikasvibisa nhaka yangu; ndakavapa muruoko rwako, iwe ukasavanzwira ngoni. Kunyange vakakwegura wakavatakudza joko rinorema kwazvo.
7 And you said for ever I will be a queen until not you put these [things] on heart your not you remembered outcome its.
Wakati, “Ndicharamba ndiri mambokadzi nokusingaperi!” Asi hauna kufunga zvinhu izvi, kana kucherechedza zvaizogona kuitika.
8 And therefore listen to this O voluptuous [woman] who dwells to security who says in heart her I and only I [am] yet not I will live a widow and not I will know childlessness.
Naizvozvo zvino, chinzwa, iwe chisikwa chisingagutsikani, ugere zvakachengetedzeka, uchiti, mumwoyo mako, “Ndini, hakuna mumwe kunze kwangu. Handizovi chirikadzi, uye handizotambudziki nokurasikirwa navana.”
9 So they may come to you both of these [things] a moment in a day one childlessness and widowhood according to completeness their they will come on you in [the] abundance of sorceries your in [the] power of spells your very many.
Zviviri izvozvi zvichakuwira nechinguva chidiki diki, pazuva rimwe chete zvinoti: kufirwa navana nouchirikadzi. Zvichauya pamusoro pako nechiyero chizere, kunyange uine unʼanga hwako huzhinji, nouroyi hwako hwakawanda.
10 And you trusted in evil your you said there not [is one who] sees me wisdom your and knowledge your it it has led away you and you said in heart your I and only I [am] yet.
Wakavimba nezvakaipa zvako uye wakati, “Hapana anondiona.” Uchenjeri hwako nezivo yako zvinokutsausa paunoti, mumwoyo mako, “Ndini, uye hakuna mumwe kunze kwangu.”
11 And it will come on you calamity not you will know to charm away it and it may fall on you disaster not you will be able to cover it and it may come on you suddenly ruin [which] not you will know.
Dambudziko richakuwira, uye haugoni kuzoziva kuti ungaritanda sei. Njodzi ichakuwira yausingagoni kubvisa nomuripo; pakarepo kuparadza kwausingagoni kuziva, kuchawira pamusoro pako.
12 Stand please in spells your and in [the] abundance of sorceries your in which you have labored since youth your perhaps you will be able to profit perhaps you will inspire awe.
“Zvino, enderera hako mberi nouroyi hwako, uye nounʼanga hwako huzhinji, hwawakashandira kubva paudiki hwako. Zvichida uchabudirira, zvichida uchavhundutsira vamwe.
13 You have become weary with [the] abundance of counsels your let them stand please and let them deliver you ([those who] divide *Q(K)*) [the] heavens those [who] look on the stars [those who] make known to the new moons from [the things] which they will come on you.
Mazano ose awakagamuchira, akakunetesa chete! Vanhu vako vanocherechedza nyeredzi ngavauye mberi, avo vanotarira nyeredzi vachifembera mwedzi nomwedzi, ngavakuponese pane zviri kuuya pamusoro pako.
14 There! they have become like chaff a fire it has burned them not they will deliver self their from [the] hand of [the] flame there not [will be] coal to warm them a fire to sit before it.
Zvirokwazvo vakafanana namashanga; moto uchaapisa akapera. Havangatongogoni kuzvirwira, pasimba romurazvo womoto. Asi hapana mazimbe okuti munhu adziyirwe; hapana moto wokudziya ipapo.
15 Thus they have become for you [those] whom you have labored traders your since youth your everyone to side his they have wandered there not [is] a deliverer for you.
Izvozvi ndizvo chete zvavangakuitira, ava vawakashanda navo, uye ukafamba navo kubva paudiki hwako. Mumwe nomumwe wavo anoenderera mberi nokukanganisa kwake; hapana kana mumwe angakuponesa.
