U-Isaya 15
1 Umthwalo kaMowabi. Ngoba ngobusuku iAri kaMowabi ichithekile, iqunyiwe; ngoba ngobusuku iKiri kaMowabi ichithekile, iqunyiwe.
Chirevo chaJehovha maererano neMoabhu: Ari romuMoabhu rava dongo, rakaparadzwa usiku! Kiri romuMoabhu rava dongo, rakaparadzwa usiku!
2 Wenyukela eBayiti leDiboni, indawo eziphakemeyo, ukuyalila; uMowabi uzaqhinqa isililo ngeNebo langeMedeba; kulempabanga kuwo wonke amakhanda abo, zonke indevu zigeliwe;
Dhibhoni rakwira kutemberi yaro, kunzvimbo dzaro dzakakwirira kundochema; Moabhu ari kuungudza pamusoro peNebho napamusoro peMedhebha. Misoro yose yaveurwa ndebvu dzose dzabviswa.
3 ezitaladeni zabo bazibhinca ngamasaka; empahleni zezindlu zabo lezitaladeni zabo wonke uqhinqa isililo, besehla bekhala inyembezi.
Munzira dzomuguta vakapfeka masaga: pamusoro pamatenga edzimba uye nomumatare, vanoungudza vose, vakazvambarara vachichema.
4 LeHeshiboni leEleyale kuzakhala; ilizwi labo lizwakale kuze kube seJahazi; ngenxa yalokhu abahlomileyo bakoMowabi bayamemeza; umphefumulo wakhe uyathuthumela kuye.
Heshibhoni neErieri dzinodanidzira, manzwi avo anonzwika kusvikira kuJahazi. Naizvozvo varwi veMoabhu vanodanidzira, uye mwoyo yavo yaziya.
5 Inhliziyo yami iyamkhalela uMowabi; ababalekayo bakhe bafinyelele eZowari, ithokazi elileminyaka emithathu; ngoba umqanso weLuhithi, bawenyuka bekhala inyembezi; ngoba endleleni yeHoronayimi baphakamisa ukukhala kwencithakalo.
Mwoyo wangu unodanidzira pamusoro peMoabhu; vatizi varo vanotiza kusvikira kuZoari, kusvikira kuEgirati-Sherishiya. Vanokwidza nenzira yokuRuhiti, vanofamba vachichema, munzira yokuHoronaimi vanochema kuparadzwa kwavo.
6 Ngoba amanzi eNimirimi azakuba zincithakalo; ngoba utshani buyoma, uhlaza luyaphela, kakukho okuluhlaza.
Mvura yokuNimirimi yakapwa uye uswa hwaoma; bumhudza rapera uye hapachina chakasvibirira chakasara.
7 Ngenxa yalokhu ukwanda abakwenzileyo lempahla yabo bazakuthwalela esifuleni seminyezane.
Saka pfuma yavakawana neyavakaunganidza vanoiyambutsira mhiri kworukova rwemikonachando.
8 Ngoba ukukhala kuzabhoda umngcele kaMowabi, ukuqhinqa kwakhe isililo kufinyelela eEgilayimi, yebo, ukuqhinqa kwakhe isililo kufinyelela eBeri-Elimi.
Kudanidzira kwavo kwaita maungira kuchitevedza muganhu weMoabhu; kuungudza kwavo kunosvikira kuEgiraimi, kuchema kwavo kunosvikira kuBheeri Erimi.
9 Ngoba amanzi eDiboni agcwele igazi; ngoba ngizamisela iDiboni okunye futhi, isilwane kulabo abaphunyukileyo bakoMowabi lakunsali yelizwe.
Mvura yapaDhimoni yakazara neropa, asi ndichauyisazve zvakawanda pamusoro peDhimoni, shumba pamusoro pavatizi veMoabhu uye napamusoro pavaya vakasara munyika.
