< U-Isaya 12 >
1 Langalolosuku uzakuthi: Ngiyakubonga, Nkosi, lanxa wawungithukuthelele, ulaka lwakho seluphendukile, njalo ungiduduzile.
Pazuva iro muchati, “Ndichakurumbidzai, imi Jehovha, kunyange makanga makanditsamwira, kutsamwa kwenyu kwakadzorwa uye makandinyaradza.
2 Khangela, uNkulunkulu ulusindiso lwami, ngizathemba ngingesabi; ngoba iNkosi uJehova ingamandla ami lengoma yami, isibe lusindiso lwami.
Zvirokwazvo Mwari ndiye ruponeso rwangu; ndichavimba naye uye handingatyi. Jehovha, Jehovha ndiye simba rangu nerwiyo rwangu; ava ruponeso rwangu.”
3 Ngakho ngentokozo lizakukha amanzi emithonjeni yosindiso.
Nomufaro muchachera mvura kubva mumatsime oruponeso.
4 Lithi ngalolosuku: Bongani iNkosi, libize ibizo layo, lazise izenzo zayo phakathi kwezizwe, limemezele ukuthi ibizo layo liphakeme.
Pazuva iro muchati, “Vongai Jehovha, danai kuzita rake; zivisai zvaakaita pakati pendudzi, uye muparidze kuti zita rake risimudzirwe.
5 Hlabelelani eNkosini ngoba yenzile izinto ezinhle kakhulu; lokhu kakwaziwe emhlabeni wonke.
Imbirai Jehovha, nokuti akaita zvinhu zvinoshamisa; izvi ngazvizivikanwe pasi pose.
6 Memeza, uhlabele ngentokozo, mhlali weZiyoni, ngoba oNgcwele kaIsrayeli mkhulu phakathi kwakho.
Pururudzai uye muimbe nomufaro, imi vanhu veZioni, nokuti Mutsvene waIsraeri mukuru pakati penyu.”
