< U-Isaya 56 >

1 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Londoloza ukulunga wenze okuqondileyo, ngoba ukusindisa kwami kuseduze lokulunga kwami kuzabonakaliswa masinyane.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Mukolenga obwenkanya era ebituufu, kubanga obulokozi bwange bunaatera okujja, n’obutuukirivu bwange bunatera okubikkulibwa.
2 Ubusisiwe umuntu okwenzayo lokhu, umuntu obambelela kukho, ogcina iSabatha engalingcolisi, athibe isandla sakhe ekwenzeni okubi.”
Alina omukisa omuntu akola ekyo, n’omwana w’omuntu akinyweererako. Akwata ssabbiiti obutagyonoona, n’akuuma omukono gwe obutakola kibi na kimu.”
3 Akungabi lowezizweni okuThixo othi, “Ngeqiniso uThixo uzangehlukanisa labantu bakhe.” Njalo lomthenwa kangavunyelwa ukusola athi, “Mina ngiyisihlahla esomileyo.”
Era ne munnaggwanga eyeegatta ku Mukama tayogeranga nti, “Mukama, oboolyawo alinjawula ku bantu be,” so n’omulaawe okugamba nti, “Ndi muti mukalu.”
4 Ngoba uThixo uthi: “Abathenwa abagcina amaSabatha ami bakhethe okungithokozisayo, babambelele kusivumelwano sami,
Kubanga bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Eri abalaawe abakwata ssabbiiti zange ne basalawo okugoberera ebyo ebinsanyusa, ne bakuuma endagaano yange,
5 ngizabanika, phakathi kwethempeli lami lemiduli yalo, isikhumbuzo lebizo elingcono kulamadodana lamadodakazi. Ngizabanika ibizo elingapheliyo. Elingayikukhohlakala.
amannya gaabwe galijjukirwa mu yeekaalu yange mu bisenge byamu, ng’ekijjukizo n’okusinga bwe mwandibadde n’abaana aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala. Ndibawa erinnya eritaliggwaawo ery’emirembe n’emirembe.
6 Labezizwe abazinikela kuThixo ukuba bamkhonze, bathande ibizo likaThixo, njalo bamkhonze, bonke abagcina iSabatha bengalingcolisi, babambelele kusivumelwano sami,
N’abo bannaggwanga abasalawo okwegatta ku Mukama, okumuweereza era n’okwagala erinnya lya Mukama era n’okubeera abaweereza be, abakwata ssabbiiti ne batagyonoona era ne banyweza endagaano yange,
7 laba ngizabaletha entabeni yami engcwele, ngibaphe intokozo endlini yami yokukhulekela. Iminikelo yabo yokutshiswa, lemihlatshelo, kuzakwamukelwa e-alithareni lami; ngoba indlu yami izathiwa yindlu yokukhuleka yezizwe zonke.”
bano ndibaleeta ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu era ne mbawa essanyu mu nnyumba yange ey’okusabiramu. Ebiweebwayo byabwe ebyokebwa ne ssaddaaka zaabwe birikkirizibwa ku kyoto kyange. Kubanga ennyumba yange eriyitibwa nnyumba ya kusabiramu eri amawanga gonna.”
8 UThixo Wobukhosi, yena oqoqa abaxotshwayo elizweni abako-Israyeli uthi: “Ngizaqoqela abanye kubo futhi ngaphandle kwalabo abavele sebeqoqiwe.”
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna, akuŋŋaanya Abayisirayiri abaawaŋŋangusibwa nti, “Ndikuŋŋaanyaayo abantu abalala ng’oggyeko abantu bange aba Isirayiri be nkuŋŋaanyizza.”
9 Wozani lonke lina zilo zeganga; wozani lidle, lonke lina zilo zamagusu!
Mukama agamba amawanga amalala okujja ng’ensolo ez’omu nsiko, galye abantu be.
10 Abalindi bako-Israyeli bayiziphofu, bonke kabazi lutho; bonke bayimigaxa, izinja ezingakhonkothiyo; balala nje baphuphe; bathanda ukulala.
Kubanga abakulembeze ba Isirayiri bazibe ba maaso, bonna tebalina magezi, bonna mbwa ezitasobola kuboggola, zibeera mu kuloota nakugalaamirira ezaagala okwebaka obwebasi.
11 Bayizinja ezihlala zilomdlozela wokufuna ukudla, azisuthi. Bangabelusi abangaqedisisiyo, bonke bazazenzela abakufunayo, lowo lalowo udinga inzuzo yakhe.
Embwa ezirina omululu omuyitirivu ezitakkuta. Basumba abatayinza kutegeera, bonna abakyamye mu makubo gaabwe; buli muntu ng’afa ku kwenoonyeza ky’anaalya.
12 Lowo lalowo uthi, “Wozani, ngilethe iwayini. Kasinatheni utshwala sibusuthe. Kusasa kuzafana lanamuhla, loba kube ngcono kakhulu.”
Bagambagana nti, “Mujje, leka tukime omwenge tunywe tutamiire. N’olw’enkya lunaku ng’olwa leero, oba n’okusingawo.”
