Yesaya 21
1 Esiae nye nyagblɔɖi ɖe gbegbe si le ƒuta la ŋu. Amedzidzela aɖe ava dze mia dzi tso gbegbe, anyigba dziŋɔ aɖe dzi abe ale si ahom tuna toa anyigbemenyigba dzi ene.
Isiphrofethi mayelana leNkangala engasoLwandle: Njengesivunguzane sidlula eNegebi, umhlaseli uvela enkangala evelela elizweni elesabekayo.
2 Woɖe ŋutega dziŋɔ aɖe fiam; ametatrɔla trɔ ame ta, nuhala kpɔ nuhaha. Elam dze edzi! Media ƒu kpo ɖe eŋu! Mana hũɖeɖe siwo katã wòhe vɛ la nawu nu.
Ngitshengiswe umbono owesabekayo. Umthengisi uyathengisa, umkhuthuzi uthatha impahla. Elamu, hlasela! Mediya, vimbezela! Mina ngizakuqeda konke ukububula akudalileyo.
3 Eya ta vevesese na nye ameti blibo la meʋuʋu. Vevesese ƒo ɖem abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la tɔ ene. Nu siwo mese la na memu sɔgɔsɔgɔ, eye dzidzi ƒom le nu siwo mekpɔ la ta.
Ngalokhu umzimba wami uyafuthelwa, ngiphethwe yibuhlungu obufana lobowesifazane ehelelwa. Ngithithibaliswa yilokhu engikuzwayo, ngidideka ngalokhu engikubonayo.
4 Nye dzi tso, vɔvɔ̃ na medzo nyanyanya. Ale fiẽ fafɛ si mele mɔ kpɔm na la zu ŋɔdzi gã aɖe nam.
Inhliziyo yami iphela amandla, ukwesaba kungenza ngiqhaqhazele; ukuhlwa engibe ngikufisa, sekusesabeka kimi.
5 Woɖo kplɔ̃wo. Nuwo katã sɔgbe, woɖu nu, wono nu! Kasia ɣli ɖi be, mitso, mi amegãwo ne miasi ami na miaƒe akpoxɔnuwo.
Itafula bayilungisile, bendlala amalembu bayadla, bayanatha. Sukumani lina zikhulu, ligcobe amahawu!
6 Ale Yehowa gblɔ nam nye esi, “Yi nàɖo gbetakpɔla, eye na wòaɖe gbeƒã nu siwo katã wòkpɔ.
Lokhu yikho uThixo akutshoyo kimi: “Hamba uyefaka umlindi ukuze abike akubonayo.
7 Ne ekpɔ tasiaɖamwo kple sɔdolawo ƒe hã, tedzidolawo kple kposɔdolawo la, ekema neɖo to, wòagaɖo to nyuie.”
Angabona izinqola zempi, kulemihlambi yamabhiza, abagadi phezu kwabobabhemi loba abagadi phezu kwamakamela, kaqaphele; aqaphelisise sibili.”
8 Gbetakpɔla ɖe gbe abe dzata ene be, “Nye Aƒetɔ, metsi tsitre ɖe nye dzɔƒe la gbe sia gbe kple zãwo katã me.
Umlindi wasememeza esithi, “Nkosi yami, usuku ngosuku ngiyema phezu komphotshongo wokulinda; ubusuku ngabunye ngihlala ensikeni yami.
9 Kpɔ ɖa, ŋutsu aɖe le tasiaɖam me kple sɔdolawo ƒe ha gbɔna, eye wòna ŋuɖoɖo siam be, ‘Babilonia mu, gamu. Wogbã eƒe legbawo katã ƒu anyi.’”
Khangela, nangu umuntu esiza esenqoleni yempi lomhlambi wamabhiza. Uphendula esithi, ‘IBhabhiloni isidilikile, isidilikile! Zonke izifanekiso zezithombe zayo zihlakazekele phansi!’”
10 O! Nye dukɔ si wogbã gudugudu le lugbɔƒe abe lu ene, megblɔ nu siwo katã Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la de asi nam be magblɔ la na mi.
Awu bantu bami elibhulelwe esizeni, ngilitshela engikuzwileyo kuvela Thixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
11 Esiae nye Mawu ƒe nyagblɔɖi ɖe Duma ŋu. Ame aɖe yɔm tso Seir be, “Gbetakplɔla, zã gbɔ tsɔa? Gbetakpɔla zã gbɔ tsɔa?”
Isiphrofethi esimayelana leDuma: Umuntu othile uyangimemeza eseSeyiri, esithi, “Mlindi, kuyini okwebusuku okusaseleyo? Mlindi, kuyini okwebusuku okusaseleyo?”
12 Gbetakpɔla ɖo eŋu be, “Esusɔ vie ŋu nake, gake zã agado ake. Nya si nèdi be yeabia la, biae, gake gatrɔ gbɔ.”
Umlindi uphendula esithi, “Ukusa kuyeza, kodwa lobusuku buyeza. Nxa ufuna ukubuza, buza; uphinde ubuye futhi.”
13 Esiae nye nyagblɔɖi ɖe Arabia ŋu. Mi asiha siwo tso Dedam, ame siwo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Arabia ƒe avekɔewo me,
Isiphrofethi esimayelana le-Arabhiya: Lina zindwendwe zabakoDedani ezimise emahlabathini ase-Arabhiya,
14 mi ame siwo le Tema, miku tsi vɛ na ame siwo tsikɔ le wuwum. Mitsɔ nuɖuɖu vɛ na aʋasilawo,
lethelani abomileyo amanzi; lina elihlala eThema, lethelani ababalekayo ukudla.
15 elabena wosi le yi si woɖe le aku me la kple da si me wovu kpakple aʋa si dzi ŋɔ la nu.
Babalekela inkemba, inkemba eqhatshisiweyo, babalekela idandili eligotshiweyo, lokutshisa kwempi.
16 Ale Aƒetɔ la gblɔ nam nye esi, “Le ƒe ɖeka me tututu abe ale si awɔbamenɔla xlẽa eƒe ƒee ene la, Kedar ƒe atsyɔ̃ katã nu ayi.
Lokhu yikho uThixo akutshoyo kimi ukuthi: “Phakathi komnyaka owodwa nje, njengendlela isisebenzi esiqhatshiweyo esingawubala ngayo, lonke udumo lweKhedari luzaphela.
17 Aŋutrɔdala mamlɛawo kple aʋawɔla siwo susɔ le Kedar la anye ame ʋɛ aɖewo ko.” Yehowa Israel ƒe Mawu lae gblɔe.
Abasindayo kwabemitshoko, amabutho aseKhedari, bazakuba balutshwana.” UThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, usekhulumile.
