U-Isaya 15
1 Umthwalo kaMowabi. Ngoba ngobusuku iAri kaMowabi ichithekile, iqunyiwe; ngoba ngobusuku iKiri kaMowabi ichithekile, iqunyiwe.
Mu kiro kimu kyokka Ali ekya Mowaabu kirizikirizibwa ne kimalibwawo. Kiiri ekya Mowaabu nakyo ne kizikirizibwa mu kiro!
2 Wenyukela eBayiti leDiboni, indawo eziphakemeyo, ukuyalila; uMowabi uzaqhinqa isililo ngeNebo langeMedeba; kulempabanga kuwo wonke amakhanda abo, zonke indevu zigeliwe;
Abantu b’e Diboni bambuse ku lusozi okukaabira mu ssabo lyabwe. Abantu ba Mowaabu bakaaba bakungubagira ebibuga byabwe ebya Nebo ne Medeba. Buli mutwe gwonna gumwereddwako enviiri na buli kirevu kyonna kimwereddwa.
3 ezitaladeni zabo bazibhinca ngamasaka; empahleni zezindlu zabo lezitaladeni zabo wonke uqhinqa isililo, besehla bekhala inyembezi.
Beesibye ebibukutu mu nguudo; ku nnyumba waggulu era ne mu bibangirize ebinene eby’omu bibuga bakaaba. Buli muntu atema emiranga n’abikaabira amaziga amayitirivu.
4 LeHeshiboni leEleyale kuzakhala; ilizwi labo lizwakale kuze kube seJahazi; ngenxa yalokhu abahlomileyo bakoMowabi bayamemeza; umphefumulo wakhe uyathuthumela kuye.
Kesuboni ne Ereyale bakaaba mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, n’amaloboozi gaabwe gawulikika e Yakazi. Abasajja ba Mowaabu abalina ebyokulwanyisa kyebava bakaaba mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, emmeeme ekankanira munda mu Mowaabu.
5 Inhliziyo yami iyamkhalela uMowabi; ababalekayo bakhe bafinyelele eZowari, ithokazi elileminyaka emithathu; ngoba umqanso weLuhithi, bawenyuka bekhala inyembezi; ngoba endleleni yeHoronayimi baphakamisa ukukhala kwencithakalo.
Omutima gwange gukaabira Mowaabu; abantu be babundabunda, baddukira e Zowaali ne Yegulasuserisiya. Bambuka e Lakisi nga bwe bakaaba; bakaabira mu kkubo ery’e Kolonayimu nga boogera ku kuzikirizibwa kwabwe.
6 Ngoba amanzi eNimirimi azakuba zincithakalo; ngoba utshani buyoma, uhlaza luyaphela, kakukho okuluhlaza.
Amazzi g’e Nimulimu gakalidde, omuddo guwotose, omuddo omugonvu, guggwaawo, tewali kintu kimera.
7 Ngenxa yalokhu ukwanda abakwenzileyo lempahla yabo bazakuthwalela esifuleni seminyezane.
Abantu basomoka akagga ak’enzingu nga badduka n’ebintu byabwe bye baafuna ne babitereka.
8 Ngoba ukukhala kuzabhoda umngcele kaMowabi, ukuqhinqa kwakhe isililo kufinyelela eEgilayimi, yebo, ukuqhinqa kwakhe isililo kufinyelela eBeri-Elimi.
Okukaaba kwetooloodde ensalo za Mowaabu; amaloboozi gatuuse e Yegalayimu, n’ebiwoobe ne bituuka e Beererimu.
9 Ngoba amanzi eDiboni agcwele igazi; ngoba ngizamisela iDiboni okunye futhi, isilwane kulabo abaphunyukileyo bakoMowabi lakunsali yelizwe.
Amazzi g’e Diboni gajjudde omusaayi, naye ndyongera okuleeta ebirala ku Diboni; empologoma egwe ku abo abalisigalawo mu Mowaabu, ne ku abo abalisigalawo ku nsi.
