U-Isaya 16
1 Thumelani iwundlu kumbusi welizwe lilisusa eSela lisiya enkangala, entabeni yendodakazi yeZiyoni.
Ke mou fekau ke ʻave ʻae lami ki he pule ʻoe fonua mei Sila ʻo aʻu ki he toafa, ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻofefine ʻo Saione.
2 Ngoba kuzakuthi, njengenyoni ezulazulayo exotshwe esidlekeni, azakuba njalo amadodakazi akoMowabi emazibukweni eArinoni.
Koeʻuhi ʻe hangē ko e manu he ʻoku kapusi mei hono pununga, ʻe pehē ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Moape ʻi he ngaahi potu mamaha ʻa ʻAlinoni.
3 Lethani iseluleko, lenze isinqumo; wenze isithunzi sakho sibe njengobusuku phakathi kwemini, ufihle abaxotshiweyo, ungavezi obalekayo.
Mou fakakaukau, fai fakapotopoto; ngaohi hoʻatā ke hangē ko e pō ʻi he hoʻatāmālie; fufū ʻae kau ʻāuhē; ʻoua naʻa fakahā ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hēhē.
4 Abaxotshiweyo bami kabahlale njengabezizwe phakathi kwakho, Mowabi; ube yisiphephelo kibo ebusweni bomchithi; ngoba umcindezeli usekucineni, ukuchitheka sekunyamalele, lonyathezela phansi usephelile elizweni.
Tuku ke nofo kiate koe ʻa ʻeku kau ʻāuhē, ʻe Moape; ke ke hoko ko e ungaʻanga kiate kinautolu mei he mata ʻoe kaihaʻa: he kuo ngata ʻaia ʻoku fakamālohi, kuo tuku ʻae kaihaʻa, kuo ʻauha ʻae kau fakamamahi mei he fonua.
5 Njalo kuzamiswa isihlalo sobukhosi ngomusa, njalo ahlale kiso ngobuqotho ethenteni likaDavida, esahlulela, lodinga isahlulelo, lophangisisa ukulunga.
Pea ʻe fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae nofoʻanga ʻoe tuʻi ʻi he ʻaloʻofa: pea te ne nofo ai ʻi he moʻoni ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻo Tevita, ʻo fai ʻae fakamaau, pea kumi ki he angatonu, mo fakavave ʻae māʻoniʻoni.
6 Sizwile ngokuziphakamisa kukaMowabi, uyazigqaja kakhulu; ukuzikhukhumeza kwakhe, lokuziqhenya kwakhe, lolaka lwakhe, ukuwumana kwakhe kakunjalo.
Kuo mau fanongo ki he laukau ʻa Moape; ʻoku laukau ʻaupito ia: ʻio ʻi heʻene fielahi, mo ʻene laukau, mo ʻene ʻita: ka ko e meʻa taʻeʻaonga ʻene ngaahi loi.
7 Ngakho uMowabi uzaqhinqela uMowabi isililo, bonke baqhinqe isililo; libubulele izisekelo zeKiri-Haresethi; isibili batshayiwe.
Ko ia ʻe tāngiloa ʻa Moape koeʻuhi ko Moape, ʻe tangi ʻae kakai kotoa pē: te mou mamahi koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo Kili-Haleseti; he ko e moʻoni kuo taaʻi ʻakinautolu.
8 Ngoba amasimu eHeshiboni ayabuna, ivini leSibima; amakhosi ezizwe atshayele phansi amahlukuzo evini awo; afinyelele eJazeri, azulazule enkangala, ingatsha zawo zeluliwe, zachapha ulwandle.
He kuo mae ʻae ngoue ʻo Hesiponi, pea mo e vaine ʻo Sipima: kuo fesiʻi hifo ʻe he houʻeiki ʻoe hiteni ʻa hono ngaahi ʻakau lelei, kuo nau haʻu ki Sesa, naʻa nau ʻalu fano ʻi he toafa: kuo mafola atu hono ngaahi vaʻa, kuo nau ika ʻi he tahi.
9 Ngenxa yalokho ngizakhala inyembezi ngokukhala kweJazeri ngevini leSibima; ngikuthambise ngezinyembezi zami, Heshiboni, lawe Eleyale; ngoba ukujabulela izithelo zakho zehlobo lesivuno sakho sekuwile.
Ko ia te u tangi ʻi he tangi ʻo Sesa koeʻuhi ko e vaine ʻo Sipima: te u fakaviviku koe ʻaki hoku loʻimata, ʻE Hesiponi, mo ʻIliale: he kuo ʻosi ʻae kalanga koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi fua ʻoe faʻahitaʻu mafana pea mo hoʻo ututaʻu.
10 Intokozo lenjabulo sekususiwe ensimini ethelayo, lezivinini kakuhlatshelwa ngoma; kakulakumemeza; kakulamnyatheli onyathela iwayini ezikhamelweni zewayini; ngimisile ukumemeza kwenjabulo.
Kuo toʻo ʻo mole ʻae fiefia, mo e nekeneka mei he ʻapi mahu; pea ʻe ʻikai ha hiva, pe ha kalanga ʻe fai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue vaine: ʻe ʻikai toe malaki ha uaine ʻe he kau malaki ʻi he ngaahi tataʻoʻanga; kuo u pule ke tuku ʻenau kalanga fiefia.
11 Ngenxa yalokho imibilini yami iyakhala njengechacho ngoMowabi, lengaphakathi yami ngeKiri-Haresi.
Ko ia ʻe tangi ʻa hoku fatu ʻo hangē ko ha haʻape koeʻuhi ko Moape, mo hoku toʻotoʻonga koeʻuhi ko Kili-Haleseti.
12 Kuzakuthi sekubonakele ukuthi uMowabi uzidinisile endaweni ephakemeyo, khona ezangena endlini yakhe engcwele ukukhuleka, kodwa kayikuphumelela.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka hā mai kuo ongosia ʻa Moape ʻi he potu māʻolunga, pea te ne haʻu ki hono potu tapu ke hū; ka e ʻikai te ne lavaʻi.
13 Leli yilizwi iNkosi elikhulume ngoMowabi kusukela kulesosikhathi.
Ko eni ʻae folofola kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova, ki Moape talu ʻae kuonga ko ia.
14 Kodwa khathesi iNkosi ikhuluma isithi: Phakathi kweminyaka emithathu, njengeminyaka yoqhatshiweyo, udumo lukaMowabi luzadelelwa, elaleloxuku lonke elikhulu; lensali izakuba nlutshwana, incane, ingelamandla.
Ka ko eni kuo folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻI he teʻeki kakato ʻae taʻu ʻe tolu, hangē ko e taʻu ʻo ha taha ʻoku ngāue kae totongi, ʻe fakavaivaiʻi ʻae nāunau ʻo Moape, mo e fuʻu tokolahi ʻoku ʻi ai; pea ʻe siʻi ʻaupito pea vaivai ʻa hono toenga.”
