U-Isaya 1
1 Umbono omayelana ngoJuda leJerusalema owabonwa ngu-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi ensukwini zokubusa kuka-Uziya, loJothamu, lo-Ahazi loHezekhiya amakhosi akoJuda.
Esiawoe nye gbedeasi siwo Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi, xɔ tso Yehowa gbɔ le ŋutega me, tso nu siwo ava dzɔ ɖe Yuda kple Yerusalem dzi la ŋuti. Exɔ gbedeasi siawo le Yuda fiawo, Uzia, Yotam, Ahaz kple Hezekia ŋɔli.
2 Zwanini, mazulu! Lalelani, mhlaba! Ngoba uThixo usekhulumile: “Ngondla abantwana ngabakhulisa, kodwa sebengihlamukele.
O! Dziƒo kple anyigba, miɖo to miase nya si gblɔm Yehowa le. Yehowa be: “Ɖevi siwo menyi hekplɔ wo kple beléle la dze aglã ɖe ŋunye.
3 Inkabi iyamazi umniniyo, lobabhemi uyasazi isibaya somnikazi wakhe, kodwa u-Israyeli kazi, abantu bami kabaqedisisi.”
Nyitsu nyaa eƒe aƒetɔ, eye tedzi nyaa eƒe nuɖuƒe, ke Israel menyam o, eye nye amewo mese nye nyawo gɔme o.”
4 Maye kuso isizwe esonayo, abantu abathwele amacala, inzalo yabenza okubi, abantwana abaxhwalileyo! Sebemlahlile uThixo; bamdelele oNgcwele ka-Israyeli, bamfulathela.
O! Dukɔ si wɔ nu vɔ̃, ame siwo dzi nu vɔ̃ do agba ɖo, nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔlawo ƒe dzidzimeviwo, vi siwo nye nu tovo wɔlawo, wogbe nu le Yehowa gbɔ, wodo ŋunyɔ Israel ƒe kɔkɔetɔ la, eye wotrɔ megbe dee.
5 Kungani kumele litshaywe futhi? Kungani liqhubeka ngokuhlamuka? Ikhanda lakho lonke lilimele, yonke inhliziyo yakho ihlukuluziwe.
Nu ka ta miedi be woanɔ mia ƒoƒo dzi? Nu ka ta miegale aglãdzedze dzi? Miaƒe ta katã xɔ abi, eye miaƒe dzi katã hã xɔ abi.
6 Kusukela ngaphansi kwentende yonyawo lwakho kusiya esicholo sekhanda lakho akukho kuphelela, kodwa izilonda lemvivinya kuphela, kanye lamanxeba; akugeziswanga, akubotshwanga kumbe kwathanjiswa ngamafutha.
Tso miaƒe afɔƒome va se ɖe miaƒe dzodome la, teƒe nyui aɖeke meli o, negbe abiwo, dodrowo, abi mumu siwo womeklɔ haɖe o alo ɖo amii loo alo bla o la koe li.
7 Ilizwe lenu lichithekile, amadolobho enu atshiswa ngomlilo, umhlaba wenu uphundlwa ngabezizweni, phambi kwenu uqobo, uchitheka njengalapho udilizwa ngabezizweni.
Miaƒe anyigba zu gbegbe, wotɔ dzo miaƒe duwo le miawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋkume, du bubu me tɔwo va ha miaƒe agblemenukuwo, eye wogblẽ miaƒe anyigba abe ale si amedzrowo wɔna ene.
8 Indodakazi yaseZiyoni isele njengedumba esivinini, njengendlwana ensimini yamajodo, njengedolobho elihonqolozelweyo.
Zion nyɔnuvi tsi akogo abe agbadɔ si le waingble me ene, abe agblexɔe le dzamatregble me ene, eye abe du si ŋu futɔwo ɖe to ɖo ene.
9 Aluba uThixo uSomandla kasitshiyelanga abalutshwana abasindayo, sasizakuba njengeSodoma; sasizafana leGomora.
Ɖe menye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ ye kpɔtɔ ame ʋɛ aɖewo ɖi na mi o la, anye ne woatsrɔ̃ Yudatɔwo katã, abe ale si wotsrɔ̃ ame sia ame le Sodom kple Gomora ene.
10 Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lina babusi baseSodoma, lalelani umthetho kaNkulunkulu wethu, lina bantu baseGomora!
Mise Yehowa ƒe nya, mi Sodom dziɖulawo, milé fɔ ɖe míaƒe Mawu la ƒe se la ŋu, mi Gomoratɔwo!
11 “Ubunengi bemihlatshelo yenu buyini kimi?” kutsho uThixo. “Ngileminikelo yokutshiswa edlula efunekayo, eyenqama lamahwahwa ezifuyo ezinonisiweyo; igazi lenkunzi, lelamawundlu lelembuzi kalingithokozisi.
“Miaƒe vɔsa gbogboawo ɖe, nu ka wonye nam?” Yehowae gblɔe. “Miaƒe numevɔsa siwo miewɔna kple agbowo kple lã damiwo ƒe ami la, wu tsɔtsɔ nam. Nyitsuwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo ƒe ʋu medoa dzidzɔ nam o.
12 Lapho lisiza phambi kwami, ngubani othe linyathele amaguma ami na?
Ne miedo ɖe nye ŋkume la, ame kae bia esia tso mia si be, mianɔ afɔɖi ƒom nye xɔxɔnuwo?
13 Yekelani ukuletha iminikelo eyize! Impepha yenu iyisinengiso kimi. Angingeke ngibekezelele imbuthano yenu yobubi, eyokuThwasa kweNyanga, amaSabatha lemihlangano.
Midzudzɔ vɔsa gbɔlo siawo tsɔtsɔ vɛ! Miaƒe dzudzɔʋeʋĩwo dodo medoa dzidzɔ nam o. Nyemate ŋu atsɔ miaƒe takpekpe vɔ̃ɖi siwo nye dzinu yeyewo, Dzudzɔgbewo kple gbeƒãɖeɖe takpegbewo o.
14 Umphefumulo wami uyawazonda amadili enu okuthwasa kwezinyanga lemikhosi yenu emisiweyo. Sekube ngumthwalo kimi; sengikhathele ngokukuthwala.
Melé fu miaƒe dzinu yeye ŋkekenyuiwo kple ŋkekenyui bubuawo. Wozu agba nam, eye nu ti kɔ nam le wo tsɔtsɔ me.
15 Lapho lichaya izandla zenu likhuleka, ngizalifihlela amehlo ami; loba selikhuleka imikhuleko eminengi, angiyikulalela. Izandla zenu zigcwele igazi!
Ne miele gbe dom ɖa, keke miaƒe abɔwo me la, maɣla nye ŋkume ɖe mi, eye ne mieli kɔ gbedodoɖa gleglegle hã la, nyemaɖo to mi o, elabena miaƒe asiwo ƒo ʋu.
16 Gezani libe ngabahlambulukileyo. Susani izenzo zenu ezimbi phambi kobuso bami; yekelani ukwenza okubi.
“Mile tsi ne mia ŋuti nakɔ. Miɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo ɖa le nye ŋkume! Midzudzɔ vɔ̃wɔwɔ,
17 Fundani ukwenza okulungileyo; funani ukwahlulela okuhle. Khuthazani abancindezelweyo. Vikelani izintandane; lamulelani umfelokazi.
ne miasrɔ̃ nyuiwɔwɔ! Midi nuteƒewɔwɔ, eye mide dzi ƒo na ame siwo wote ɖe anyi. Miʋli tsyɔ̃eviwo ta, eye miaxɔ nya ɖe ahosiwo nu.
18 Wozani, siqondisane sindawonye,” kutsho uThixo. “Lanxa izono zenu zibomvu gebhu, zizakuba mhlophe njengonqwaqwane, loba zibomvu njengegazi, zizakuba njengoboya bezimvu.
“Miva, mina míade ŋugble ɖekae,” Yehowa gblɔe. “Togbɔ be miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo biã abe nyagãdzĩ ene hã la, woafu abe ɖetifu ene. Ne wobiã abe ʋu ene hã la, woafu abe alẽfu ɣi ene.
19 Nxa livuma njalo lilalela, lizakudla okuhle kwelizwe;
Ne mielɔ̃, eye mieɖo to la, miaɖu anyigba la ƒe nu nyuitɔwo.
20 kodwa nxa linqaba, lihlamuka, lizadliwa yinkemba.” Ngoba umlomo kaThixo usukhulumile.
Ke ne miesẽ to, dze aglã la, yi atsrɔ̃ mi.” Elabena Yehowa ƒe nue gblɔe.
21 Khangelani ukuthi idolobho elithembekileyo seliphenduke laba yisifebe kanjani! Lake lagcwala ngokufaneleyo; ukulunga kwakuhlala kulo, kodwa khathesi sekuhlala ababulali!
Tsã la, wokpɔa nuteƒewɔwɔ kple dzɔdzɔenyenye le eme, ezu hlɔ̃dolawo ƒe du.
22 Isiliva senu sesingamanyele, iwayini lenu elihle selihlanganiswe lamanzi.
Tsã la, klosalo si le keklẽm la wònye, ke azɔ la, elé ɣebia eye wòzu abe wain nyuitɔ si wotɔ tsii ene.
23 Ababusi benu bangabahlamuki, abangane bamasela; bonke bathanda izivalamlomo, bafune izipho. Izintandane kabazivikeli; indaba yomfelokazi kayifiki kibo.
Wò dumegãwo zu aglãdzelawo kple fiafiwo xɔlɔ̃, wolɔ̃a zãnuxɔxɔ, eye wotia nunanawo yome. Womeʋlia tsyɔ̃eviwo ta o, eye ahosiwo ƒe nya medzɔna le woƒe ʋɔnu o.
24 Ngakho-ke iNkosi, uThixo uSomandla, uMninimandla ka-Israyeli, uthi: “Yebo! Ngizabhodlisela ezitheni zami, ngibuye ngiphindisele kwabayizitha zami.
Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Ŋusẽtɔ la gblɔe nye esi. “O! Makpɔ gbɔɖeme tso nye ketɔwo ƒe asi me, eye mabia hlɔ̃ nye futɔwo.
25 Ngizaphakamisela isandla sami kini; ngizawahlambulula ngokupheleleyo amanyele enu, ngisuse lakho konke ukungcola kwenu.
Matrɔ atsi tsitre ɖe mia ŋu, atsra mia me, eye maɖe nu kuklui siwo nye ɖiƒoƒo la ɖa le mia me.
26 Ngizabuyisa abehluleli benu njengezinsukwini zakudala, labeluleki benu njengasekuqaleni. Muva uzabizwa ngokuthi iDolobho Lokulunga, iDolobho Elithembekileyo.”
Emegbe la, maɖo ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo na mi abe tsã ene, eye mana aɖaŋudelawo mi abe ale si wònɔ le gɔmedzedzea me ene. Emegbe la, woayɔ mi be Dzɔdzɔenyenye kple Nuteƒewɔwɔ ƒe Du.”
27 IZiyoni izahlengwa ngemfanelo, abaphendukayo bayo bahlengwe ngokulunga.
Woaɖe Zion kple afia nyui tsotso, eye woaɖe eƒe dzimetrɔlawo kple dzɔdzɔenyenye.
28 Kodwa abahlamuki lezoni bazachithwa, lalabo abalahla uThixo bazabhubha.
Ke woagbã aglãdzelawo kple nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo siaa gudugudu, eye woatsrɔ̃ ame siwo gbe nu le Yehowa gbɔ.
29 “Lizayangeka ngenxa yezihlahla zomʼokhi ezingcwele elazithokozisa ngazo. Lizadana ngamasimu elawakhethayo.
“Ŋu akpe mi le logoti siwo ŋu miekpɔa dzidzɔ le la ŋu; woade ŋukpe mo na mi le abɔ siwo mielɔ̃na la ta.
30 Lizafana lomʼokhi olamahlamvu asebuna, lanjengensimu engelamanzi.
Miazu abe logoti aɖe si ƒe aŋgbawo yrɔ kple abɔ si me tsi aɖeke mele o la ene.
31 Indoda elamandla izafana lencwathi, umsebenzi wayo ufane lenhlansi; kokubili kuzakutsha kanyekanye, kungekho ozacitsha umlilo.”
Ame sesẽ la azu gbe ƒuƒu, eƒe dɔwɔwɔ azu dzoxi, wo ame eve la woabi, eye ame aɖeke mate ŋu atsii o.”
