Ἠσαΐας 63
1 τίς οὗτος ὁ παραγινόμενος ἐξ Εδωμ ἐρύθημα ἱματίων ἐκ Βοσορ οὕτως ὡραῖος ἐν στολῇ βίᾳ μετὰ ἰσχύος ἐγὼ διαλέγομαι δικαιοσύνην καὶ κρίσιν σωτηρίου
Ngubani lo ovela eEdoma, olezembatho ezibomvu evela eBhozira? Lo odumisekileyo ngezembatho zakhe, ehamba ngobukhulu bamandla akhe? Yimi engikhuluma ngokulunga, engilamandla okusindisa.
2 διὰ τί σου ἐρυθρὰ τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ τὰ ἐνδύματά σου ὡς ἀπὸ πατητοῦ ληνοῦ
Kungani izigqoko zakho zibomvu, lezembatho zakho zinjengezonyathela esikhamelweni sewayini?
3 πλήρης καταπεπατημένης καὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀνὴρ μετ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ κατεπάτησα αὐτοὺς ἐν θυμῷ καὶ κατέθλασα αὐτοὺς ὡς γῆν καὶ κατήγαγον τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν εἰς γῆν
Ngisinyathele ngedwa isikhamelo sewayini, lebantwini kwakungekho loyedwa lami; ngoba ngizabanyathela ekuthukutheleni kwami, ngibahlifize elakeni lwami; legazi labo lizafafazwa ezembathweni zami, ngingcolise izigqoko zami zonke.
4 ἡμέρα γὰρ ἀνταποδόσεως ἐπῆλθεν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐνιαυτὸς λυτρώσεως πάρεστιν
Ngoba usuku lwempindiselo lusenhliziyweni yami, lomnyaka wabahlengwa bami usufikile.
5 καὶ ἐπέβλεψα καὶ οὐδεὶς βοηθός καὶ προσενόησα καὶ οὐθεὶς ἀντελαμβάνετο καὶ ἐρρύσατο αὐτοὺς ὁ βραχίων μου καὶ ὁ θυμός μου ἐπέστη
Njalo ngakhangela, kodwa kwakungekho osizayo, ngamangala kakhulu ukuthi kwakungekho osekelayo; ngakho ingalo yami yaletha usindiso kimi, lolaka lwami lona lwangisekela.
6 καὶ κατεπάτησα αὐτοὺς τῇ ὀργῇ μου καὶ κατήγαγον τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν εἰς γῆν
Besenginyathela abantu ekuthukutheleni kwami, ngibadakise olakeni lwami, ngehlisele emhlabathini amandla abo.
7 τὸν ἔλεον κυρίου ἐμνήσθην τὰς ἀρετὰς κυρίου ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ὁ κύριος ἡμῖν ἀνταποδίδωσιν κύριος κριτὴς ἀγαθὸς τῷ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ ἐπάγει ἡμῖν κατὰ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς δικαιοσύνης αὐτοῦ
Ngizakhumbuza ngothandolomusa omkhulu weNkosi, izindumiso zeNkosi, njengakho konke iNkosi esinike khona, lobuhle obukhulu ngasendlini kaIsrayeli, ebanike bona ngokwezisa zayo, lanjengobunengi bothandolomusa wayo omkhulu.
8 καὶ εἶπεν οὐχ ὁ λαός μου τέκνα οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσωσιν καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς σωτηρίαν
Ngoba yathi: Isibili bangabantu bami, abantwana abangayikukhuluma amanga; ngakho yaba nguMsindisi wabo.
9 ἐκ πάσης θλίψεως οὐ πρέσβυς οὐδὲ ἄγγελος ἀλλ’ αὐτὸς κύριος ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς διὰ τὸ ἀγαπᾶν αὐτοὺς καὶ φείδεσθαι αὐτῶν αὐτὸς ἐλυτρώσατο αὐτοὺς καὶ ἀνέλαβεν αὐτοὺς καὶ ὕψωσεν αὐτοὺς πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ αἰῶνος
Enhluphekweni yabo yonke yahlupheka, lengilosi yobukhona bayo yabasindisa; ngothando lwayo langesihawu sayo yona yabahlenga, yabaphakamisa, yabathwala zonke izinsuku zendulo.
10 αὐτοὶ δὲ ἠπείθησαν καὶ παρώξυναν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐστράφη αὐτοῖς εἰς ἔχθραν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπολέμησεν αὐτούς
Kodwa bona baba lenkani, badabukisa uMoya wayo oNgcwele; ngakho yaphenduka yaba yisitha sabo, yona yalwa imelene labo.
11 καὶ ἐμνήσθη ἡμερῶν αἰωνίων ὁ ἀναβιβάσας ἐκ τῆς γῆς τὸν ποιμένα τῶν προβάτων ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ θεὶς ἐν αὐτοῖς τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον
Yasikhumbula insuku zendulo, uMozisi, labantu bakhe, isithi: Ungaphi lowo owabakhuphula olwandle labelusi bomhlambi wakhe? Ungaphi lowo owafaka uMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele phakathi kwakhe?
12 ὁ ἀγαγὼν τῇ δεξιᾷ Μωυσῆν ὁ βραχίων τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ κατίσχυσεν ὕδωρ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτῷ ὄνομα αἰώνιον
Owakhokhela ingalo yakhe elodumo esandleni sokunene sikaMozisi, esehlukanisa amanzi phambi kwabo, ukuzenzela ibizo eliphakade?
13 ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς διὰ τῆς ἀβύσσου ὡς ἵππον δῑ ἐρήμου καὶ οὐκ ἐκοπίασαν
Owabakhokhela ezinzikini, njengebhiza enkangala kabakhubekanga?
14 καὶ ὡς κτήνη διὰ πεδίου κατέβη πνεῦμα παρὰ κυρίου καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτούς οὕτως ἤγαγες τὸν λαόν σου ποιῆσαι σεαυτῷ ὄνομα δόξης
Njengenkomo isehlela esigodini, uMoya weNkosi wabaphumuza. Ngokunjalo wabakhokhela abantu bakho, ukuze uzenzele ibizo elilodumo.
15 ἐπίστρεψον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἰδὲ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ἁγίου σου καὶ δόξης ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ ζῆλός σου καὶ ἡ ἰσχύς σου ποῦ ἐστιν τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ ἐλέους σου καὶ τῶν οἰκτιρμῶν σου ὅτι ἀνέσχου ἡμῶν
Khangela phansi usemazulwini, ubone usendaweni yakho yokuhlala yobungcwele bakho leyodumo lwakho. Kungaphi ukutshiseka kwakho lamandla akho? Ubunengi bemibilini yakho, lezihawu zakho kimi, kuyazibamba yini?
16 σὺ γὰρ ἡμῶν εἶ πατήρ ὅτι Αβρααμ οὐκ ἔγνω ἡμᾶς καὶ Ισραηλ οὐκ ἐπέγνω ἡμᾶς ἀλλὰ σύ κύριε πατὴρ ἡμῶν ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς ἐστιν
Isibili wena ungubaba; lanxa uAbrahama engasazi, loIsrayeli engasivumi; wena Nkosi ungubaba wethu, umhlengi wethu; ibizo lakho lisukela ephakadeni.
17 τί ἐπλάνησας ἡμᾶς κύριε ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ σου ἐσκλήρυνας ἡμῶν τὰς καρδίας τοῦ μὴ φοβεῖσθαί σε ἐπίστρεψον διὰ τοὺς δούλους σου διὰ τὰς φυλὰς τῆς κληρονομίας σου
Nkosi, kungani usenza siduhe ezindleleni zakho, usenza inhliziyo yethu ibe lukhuni sisuka ekukwesabeni? Phenduka ngenxa yenceku zakho, izizwe zelifa lakho.
18 ἵνα μικρὸν κληρονομήσωμεν τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ ἁγίου σου οἱ ὑπεναντίοι ἡμῶν κατεπάτησαν τὸ ἁγίασμά σου
Abantu bobungcwele bakho babe lakho okwesikhatshana; izitha zethu zinyathelele phansi indlu yakho engcwele.
19 ἐγενόμεθα ὡς τὸ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ὅτε οὐκ ἦρξας ἡμῶν οὐδὲ ἐπεκλήθη τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς
Singabakho; kawuzange ubuse phezu kwabo; kababizwanga ngebizo lakho.
