< Isaiah 59 >

1 look! not be short hand: power LORD from to save and not to honor: dull ear his from to hear: hear
Khangela isandla seNkosi kasifinyezwanga ukuthi singasindisi, lendlebe yayo kayinzima ukuthi ingezwa.
2 that if: except if: except iniquity: crime your to be to separate between you to/for between God your and sin your to hide face from you from to hear: hear
Kodwa iziphambeko zenu zehlukanisile phakathi kwenu loNkulunkulu wenu, lezono zenu zibusithile ubuso bakhe kini, ukuthi angezwa.
3 for palm your to defile in/on/with blood and finger your in/on/with iniquity: crime lips your to speak: speak deception tongue your injustice to mutter
Ngoba izandla zenu zingcoliswe ngegazi, leminwe yenu ngenkohlakalo; indebe zenu zikhulume amanga, lolimi lwenu lungunguna ububi.
4 nothing to call: call to in/on/with righteousness and nothing to judge in/on/with faithfulness to trust upon formlessness and to speak: speak vanity: false to conceive trouble and to beget evil: wickedness
Kakho omemeza ngokulunga, njalo kakho olabhela ngeqiniso; bathemba okuyize, bakhulume amanga; bamitha ububi, bazale isiphambeko.
5 egg serpent to break up/open and web spider to weave [the] to eat from egg their to die and [the] crushed to break up/open viper
Bachamusela amaqanda enhlangwana, beluke ubulembu besayobe; odla okwamaqanda awo uyafa; lelichotshoziweyo liqhamuka lilibululu.
6 web their not to be to/for garment and not to cover in/on/with deed: work their deed: work their deed: work evil: wickedness and work violence in/on/with palm their
Ubulembu babo kabuyikuba yizembatho, njalo kabayikuzembesa ngemisebenzi yabo. Imisebenzi yabo yimisebenzi yobubi, lesenzo sodlakela sisezandleni zabo.
7 foot their to/for bad: evil to run: run and to hasten to/for to pour: kill blood innocent plot their plot evil: wickedness violence and breaking in/on/with highway their
Inyawo zabo zigijimela ebubini; baphangisa ukuchitha igazi elingelacala; imicabango yabo yimicabango yobubi; ukubhubhisa lokuchitha kusezindleleni zabo.
8 way: conduct peace not to know and nothing justice in/on/with track their path their to twist to/for them all to tread in/on/with her not to know peace
Indlela yokuthula kabayazi; njalo kakulasahlulelo emikhondweni yabo; bazenzela izindlela zabo ezimazombazombe; loba ngubani ohamba kuzo kayikwazi ukuthula.
9 upon so to remove justice from us and not to overtake us righteousness to await to/for light and behold darkness to/for brightness in/on/with darkness to go: walk
Ngakho-ke isahlulelo sikhatshana lathi, lokulunga kakusifinyeleli. Silindela ukukhanya, kodwa khangela, ubumnyama; silindela ukukhazimula, kodwa sihamba emnyameni omkhulu.
10 to grope like/as blind wall and like/as nothing eye to grope to stumble in/on/with midday like/as twilight in/on/with strong like/as to die
Siphumputha umduli njengeziphofu, siphumputhe kwangathi kasilamehlo; sikhubeke emini enkulu kwangathi kukusihlwa, sisendaweni ezichithekileyo njengabafileyo.
11 to roar like/as bear all our and like/as dove to mutter to mutter to await to/for justice and nothing to/for salvation to remove from us
Sonke siyabhonga njengamabhere, silile lokulila njengamajuba; silindela isahlulelo, kodwa kasikho; losindiso, kodwa lukhatshana lathi.
12 for to multiply transgression our before you and sin our to answer in/on/with us for transgression our with us and iniquity: crime our to know them
Ngoba iziphambeko zethu zandile phambi kwakho, lezono zethu zifakaza zimelene lathi; ngoba iziphambeko zethu zilathi, lobubi bethu siyabazi;
13 to transgress and to deceive in/on/with LORD and to remove from after God our to speak: speak oppression and revolt to conceive and to mutter from heart word deception
ukuphambuka, lokuqambela iNkosi amanga, lokusuka ekulandeleni uNkulunkulu wethu, ukukhuluma incindezelo lokuhlamuka, ukukhulelwa lokukhuluma amazwi amanga aphuma enhliziyweni.
14 and to remove back justice and righteousness from distant to stand: stand for to stumble in/on/with street/plaza truth: true and upright not be able to/for to come (in): come
Ngakho isahlulelo sibuyiselwa emuva, lokulunga kumi khatshana; ngoba iqiniso liyakhubeka esitaladeni, lobuqotho kabulakungena.
15 and to be [the] truth: true to lack and to turn aside: depart from bad: evil to loot and to see: see LORD and be evil in/on/with eye: appearance his for nothing justice
Yebo, iqiniso liyasilela, lowehlukana lobubi uzenza impango. INkosi yasikubona, njalo kwaba kubi emehlweni ayo ukuthi kakulasahlulelo.
16 and to see: see for nothing man: anyone and be desolate: appalled for nothing to fall on and to save to/for him arm his and righteousness his he/she/it to support him
Yasibona ukuthi kwakungelamuntu, yamangala kakhulu ukuthi kwakungelamlamuli; ngakho ingalo yayo yaletha usindiso kuye, lokulunga kwayo khona kwamsekela.
17 and to clothe righteousness like/as armor and helmet salvation in/on/with head his and to clothe garment vengeance clothing and to enwrap like/as robe jealousy
Ngoba yembatha ukulunga njengebhatshi lensimbi, lengowane yosindiso ekhanda layo; yembatha izembatho zempindiselo njengesembatho, yazembesa ukutshiseka njengejazi.
18 like/as upon recompense like/as upon to complete rage to/for enemy his recompense to/for enemy his to/for coastland recompense to complete
Njengokwezenzo, ngokunjalo izaphindisela, ulaka kwabamelana layo, umvuzo ezitheni zayo; ezihlengeni uzabuyisela umvuzo.
19 and to fear: revere from west [obj] name LORD and from east sun [obj] glory his for to come (in): come like/as river narrow spirit: breath LORD to flee in/on/with him
Ngokunjalo bazalesaba ibizo leNkosi kusukela entshonalanga, lodumo lwayo kusukela lapho okuphuma khona ilanga. Lapho isitha sizangena njengomfula, uMoya weNkosi uzaphakamisa isiboniso esimelene laso.
20 and to come (in): come to/for Zion to redeem: redeem and to/for to return: repent transgression in/on/with Jacob utterance LORD
LoMhlengi uzafika eZiyoni, lakulabo abaphenduka eziphambekweni koJakobe, itsho iNkosi.
21 and I this covenant my with them to say LORD spirit my which upon you and word my which to set: put in/on/with lip your not to remove from lip your and from lip seed: children your and from lip seed: children seed: children your to say LORD from now and till forever: enduring
Mina-ke, lesi yisivumelwano sami labo, itsho iNkosi: UMoya wami ophezu kwakho, lamazwi ami engiwafake emlonyeni wakho, kawayikusuka emlonyeni wakho, lemlonyeni wenzalo yakho, lemlonyeni wenzalo yenzalo yakho, itsho iNkosi, kusukela khathesi kuze kube phakade.
