< U-Isaya 20 >
1 Ngomnyaka indunankulu yebutho eyafika ngawo e-Ashidodi, ithunywe nguSagoni inkosi yase-Asiriya, yahlasela i-Ashidodi yayithumba,
Amy taoñe nanamea’ i Tartane i Asdodey, (ie nampañitrife’ ty mpanjaka’ i Asore), le nialia’e ty Asdode vaho tinava’e;
2 ngalesosikhathi uThixo wakhuluma ngo-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi wathi kuye, “Susa isaka oligqokileyo emzimbeni wakho ukhuphe lamanyathela ezinyaweni zakho.” Wenza njalo, wahamba nqunu njalo engagqokanga lutho ezinyaweni.
ie amy taoñe zay, le nitsara am’ Iesaià ana’ i Amotse t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe: Akia, abalaho hiafake an-toha’o eo i lamban-goniy vaho apolitiro am-pandia’o o hana’oo. Nanoe’e zay, nañavelo nihalo tsy aman-kana.
3 UThixo wasesithi, “Njengoba inceku yami u-Isaya ihambe nqunu njalo ingagqokanga lutho ezinyaweni okweminyaka emithathu njengesibonakaliso lomhlolo kwabaseGibhithe labaseKhushi,
Le hoe t’Iehovà: Manahake te nañavelo tsy aman-tsaroñe, tsy aman-kana telo taoñe ty mpitoroko Iesaià, t’ie ho viloñe naho halatsañe amy Mitsraime naho amy Kose,
4 ngokunjalo inkosi yase-Asiriya izabaqhuba benqunu njalo bengafakanga manyathela ezinyaweni abaseGibhithe abathunjiweyo labaseKhushi abaxotshwayo elizweni lakibo, abatsha labadala, izibunu zisegcekeni, kube lihlazo eGibhithe.
le ho kozozote’ ty mpanjaka’ i Asore o mpirohi’ i Mitsraimeo naho o hasese boake Koseo, hibongy vaho tsy ho aman-kana, ty kede naho ty bey, tsy ho aman-tsaro ty voli’e ho ami’ty hasalara’ i Mitsraime.
5 Labo ababethembe iKhushi bezincoma ngeGibhithe, bazakwesaba bayangiswe.
Ho lonjetse naho meñatse iereo ty amy Kose, fitamà’ iareo, naho i Mitsraime fisengea’ iareo.
6 Ngalolosuku abantu abahlala kulelicele eliseduze kolwandle bazakuthi, ‘Khangelani osokwenzakale kulabo ebesigwaba ngabo, labo esabalekela kubo ukuba sithole usizo lokukhululwa enkosini yase-Asiriya! Pho sizaphepha kanjani na?’”
Le hanao ty hoe ty mpimoneñe añ’olo-tane atoy amy andro zay: Heheke o nitamaen-tikañeo, i nipitsihan-tika nipay olotse hivotsoran-tika amy mpanjaka’ i Asoreiy; tika ‘nio! aia ty hivoratsahan-tika?
