U-Isaya 51
1 “Lalelani kimi lina elilandela ukulunga lidinga loThixo: Khangelani edwaleni elacezulwa kulo lasegodini lamatshe elambiwa kulo;
“Fanongo kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku muimui ki he māʻoniʻoni, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku kumi kia Sihova: vakai ki he maka naʻe tā mei ai ʻakimoutolu, pea ki he ava ʻoe luo naʻe keli ʻakimoutolu mei ai.
2 khangelani ku-Abhrahama, uyihlo, lakuSara owalizalayo. Ekumbizeni kwami wayemunye, ngambusisa ngamandisa.
Vakai kia ʻEpalahame ko hoʻomou tamai, pea kia Sela naʻa ne fua ʻakimoutolu: he naʻaku ui ia tokotaha pe, pea tāpuaki ia, pea u fakatokolahi ia.
3 Ngeqiniso uThixo uzaduduza iZiyoni abe lesihawu kuwo wonke amanxiwa alo; uzakwenza izinkangala zalo zibe njenge-Edeni, amazwe alo alugwadule afane lesivande sikaThixo. Ukuthaba lentokozo kuzafunyanwa kulo, kanye lokubonga lelizwi lokuhlabela.
Koeʻuhi ʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sihova ʻi Saione: te ne fakafiemālieʻi hono ngaahi potu lala kotoa pē; pea te ne ngaohi hono toafa ke hangē ko Iteni, pea ko hono potu liʻaki ʻo hangē ko e ngoue ʻa Sihova; ʻe ʻilo ʻi ai ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka, ko e fakafetaʻi, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe Saame.
4 Lalelani kimi, bantu bami; ungizwe lawe sizwe sami: Kuzaphuma umthetho uvela kimi; ukulunga kwami kuzakuba yikukhanya ezizweni.
“Fanongo kiate au, ʻa hoku kakai, pea tokanga kiate au, ʻa hoku puleʻanga: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻalu atu ʻiate au ha fono, pea te u ngaohi ʻeku fakamaau ke nofo ko e maama ʻoe kakai.
5 Ukulunga kwami kusondela ngokuphangisa, insindiso yami iyeza, ingalo yami izaletha ukulunga ezizweni. Izihlenge zizakhangela kimi, zilinde zithembe amandla ami.
ʻOku ofi ʻeku māʻoniʻoni; kuo ʻalu atu ʻeku fakamoʻui, pea ʻe fakamaau ʻe hoku nima ʻae kakai; ʻe tatali kiate au ʻae ngaahi motu, pea te nau falala ki hoku nima.
6 Phakamiselani amehlo enu phezulu emazulwini, likhangele lasemhlabeni phansi; amazulu azanyamalala njengentuthu; umhlaba uzaguga njengesigqoko abakhe kuwo bafe njengempukane. Kodwa insindiso yami izakuba khona kuze kube nininini, ukulunga kwami akuyikuphela.
Hiki hake homou mata ki he ngaahi langi, pea sio ki he māmani ʻi lalo: koeʻuhi ʻe mole fakafokifā ʻae ngaahi langi ʻo hangē ko e ʻohuafi, pea ʻe fakaʻau ʻo motuʻa ʻa māmani ʻo hangē ko e kofu, pea ʻe mate foki mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ai: ka ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻa ʻeku fakamoʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai ngata ʻeku māʻoniʻoni.
7 Ngizwani lina elikwaziyo okulungileyo lina bantu abagcina umthetho wami ezinhliziyweni zenu: Lingakwesabi ukugconwa ngabantu, kumbe lethuswe yizithuko zabo.
“Fanongo kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku ʻilo ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻae kakai ʻoku ʻi honau loto ʻa ʻeku fono; ʻoua te mou manavahē ki he valoki ʻae kakai, pea ʻoua te mou ilifia ʻi heʻenau lauʻikovi.
8 Ngoba inondo izabadla njengesigqoko; impethu ibadle njengewulu. Kodwa ukulunga kwami kuzakuba khona kuze kube nininini; lensindiso yami ikhona kuzizukulwane zonke.”
Koeʻuhi ʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ane ʻo hangē ko e kofu, pea ʻe kai ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻuanga ʻo hangē ko e fulufuluʻi sipi: ka ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻa ʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pea ko ʻeku fakamoʻui mei he toʻutangata ki he toʻutangata.”
9 Vuka, vuka, wena ngalo kaThixo; uzigqokise ngamandla akho! Vuka njengasezinsukwini zendulo, lanjengakuzizukulwane zakudala. Kayisuwe yini owaquma uRahabi waba yiziqa, wagwaza lesilo lesiyana na?
Ke ke ʻā, ke ke ʻā, ʻai ʻae mālohi, ʻE nima ʻo Sihova; ke ke ʻā, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa, ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata ʻi muʻa. ʻIkai ko koe ia naʻe tuʻusi ʻa Lehapi, pea naʻe taaʻi ʻae talākoni?
10 Kawusuwe yini owomisa ulwandle, amanzi atshona kakhulu, wenza umgwaqo ezinzikini zolwandle ukuze abahlengiweyo bachaphe na?
ʻIkai ko koe ia kuo ke fakamōmoa ʻae tahi, ʻae ngaahi vai ʻoe fuʻu moana; ʻa koe kuo ngaohi ʻae ngaahi loloto ʻoe tahi koe hala ke ʻalu ai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi?
11 Labahlengiweyo bakaThixo bazabuyela. Bazangena eZiyoni behlabelela, intokozo engapheliyo izakuba ngumqhele emakhanda abo. Bazakuba lokuthula lenjabulo, usizi lokububula kuzaphela.
Ko ia, ʻe toe foki mai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi ʻe Sihova, pea haʻu mo e hiva ki Saione; pea ʻe ʻi honau ʻulu ʻae fiefia ʻo taʻengata: te nau maʻu ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka; pea ʻe puna atu ʻae mamahi mo e tangi.
12 “Mina, mina uqobo, nginguye oliduduzayo. Ungubani wena ukuba wesabe abantu abafayo, amadodana abantu, abutshani nje,
“Ko au, ʻio, ko au ia, ʻoku fakafiemālieʻi koe: ko hai koe, ke ke manavahē ki ha tangata ʻaia ʻe mate, pea ki he foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia ʻe ngaohi ʻo hangē ko e mohuku;
13 uze ukhohlwe uThixo, uMenzi wakho, owendlala amazulu wabeka lezisekelo zomhlaba, ukuthi uhlale ngokwesaba okungapheliyo nsuku zonke ngenxa yolaka lomncindezeli, ohlose ukuchitha na? Ngoba lungaphi na ulaka lomncindezeli?
Pea ʻoku ke fakangalongaloʻi ʻa Sihova ko ho tupuʻanga, ʻaia kuo ne fofola ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ai mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani; pea kuo ke manavahē maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e ʻita ʻo ia ʻoku fakamālohi, ʻo hangē ʻoku ne te u ke fakaʻauha? Pea kofaʻā ia ʻae lili ʻoe fakamālohi?
14 Izibotshwa ezitshotshobeleyo zizakhululwa masinyazana, aziyikufela emajele azo, kumbe ziswele ukudla.
ʻOku lele toʻotoʻo ʻae pōpula ke vete ia, pea ke ʻoua naʻa mate ia ʻi he luo, pea ke ʻoua naʻa ʻosi ʻene mā.
15 Ngoba mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wakho, ophehla ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome, ibizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
Ka ko au ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, naʻaku vaeua ʻae tahi, ʻaia naʻe ʻuʻulu hono peau: ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
16 Ngifake amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho ngakwembesa ngomthunzi wesandla sami, mina engabeka amazulu endaweni yawo, ngabeka izisekelo zomhlaba, njalo othi kuZiyoni, ‘Lina lingabantu bami.’”
Pea kuo u ʻai ʻeku ngaahi lea ki ho ngutu, pea kuo u fufū koe ʻaki ʻae malumalu ʻo hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke u tō ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ʻai mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani, pea pehē ki Saione, Ko koe ko hoku kakai.’”
17 Vuka, vuka! Phakama wena Jerusalema, wena onathe enkezweni esandleni sikaThixo inkezo yolaka lwakhe, wena oyikhoce wafika enzeceni zayo; inkezo eyenza amadoda adiyazele.
Ke ke ʻā, ke ke ʻā, Tuʻu hake, ʻE Selūsalema, ʻa koe kuo inu ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻae ipu ʻo hono houhau; kuo ke inu ʻae efe ʻoe ipu ʻoe tetetete, pea tatau ia.
18 Kuwo wonke amadodana eliwazeleyo, kayikho eyayingalikhokhela; kuwo wonke amadodana elawondlayo, kayikho eyayingalibamba ngesandla.
ʻOku ʻikai ha taha ke fakahinohino ia ʻi he ngaahi foha kotoa pē kuo ne fanauʻi; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha niʻihi ʻoku puke ki hono nima ʻi he ngaahi foha kotoa pē kuo ne tauhi.
19 Lezizingozi ezimbili zikwehlele; ngubani ongakududuza na? Incithakalo lokubhujiswa, indlala lenkemba, ngubani ongakududuza na?
Kuo hoko ʻae meʻa ni ʻe ua kiate koe; ko hai ʻe mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe? Ko e maumau, mo fakaʻauha, mo e honge, mo e heletā: te u fakafiemālieʻi koe ʻia hai?
20 Amadodana akho asephele amandla, aselala ezihlokweni zemigwaqo yonke njengebhalabhala elibanjwe ngumambule. Agcwele ulaka lukaThixo lokukhuza kukaNkulunkulu wakho.
Kuo pongia hoʻo ngaahi foha, ʻoku nau tokoto ʻi he ʻulu ʻoe ngaahi hala kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e pulu tangata ʻoku hehengi ʻi he kupenga: ʻoku nau fonu ʻi he houhau ʻo Sihova, mo e valoki mei ho ʻOtua.
21 Ngakho-ke zwana lokhu wena ohluphekayo, lodakisiweyo kodwa kungasingewayini.
Ko ia fanongo ki he meʻa ni, ʻa koe ko e mahaki, mo e konā, kae ʻikai ʻi he uaine:
22 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi bakho, uNkulunkulu wakho ovikela abantu bakhe: “Khangela, sengiyisusile esandleni sakho inkezo ekwenza udiyazele; leyonkezo engeyolaka lwami, awuyikunatha ngayo futhi.
ʻOku pehē ho ʻEiki ko Sihova, pea ko ho ʻOtua ʻoku langomakiʻi ʻa hono kakai, “Vakai, kuo u toʻo mei ho nima ʻae ipu ʻoe tetetete, ʻio, ʻae efe ʻoe ipu ʻo hoku houhau; ʻe ʻikai te ke toe inu ia;
23 Ngizayibeka ezandleni zabakuhluphayo, abathi kuwe, ‘Cambalala ukuze sihambe phezu kwakho.’ Wena-ke wenza umhlane wakho waba njengenhlabathi, lanjengomgwaqo okungahanjwa kuwo.”
Ka te u ʻai ia ki he nima ʻonautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi koe; ʻakinautolu kuo pehē ki ho laumālie, ‘Punou hifo, ka mau laka atu:’ pea kuo ke fakatokoto ho sino ʻo hangē ko e kelekele, pea hangē ko e hala, kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu ai.”
