U-Isaya 19
1 Umthwalo weGibhithe. Khangela, iNkosi igade eyezini elilejubane, izakuza eGibhithe; lezithombe zeGibhithe zizathuthumela phambi kwayo, lenhliziyo yamaGibhithe incibilike phakathi kwawo.
Chirevo pamusoro peIjipiti: Tarirai, Jehovha akatasva gore rinomhanya, uye ari kuuya kuIjipiti. Zvifananidzo zveIjipiti zviri kudedera pamberi pake, uye mwoyo yavaIjipita yonyungudika mukati mavo.
2 Njalo ngizacija amaGibhithe amelane lamaGibhithe, ukuthi alwe, ngulowo lalowo emelene lomfowabo, langulowo lalowo emelene lomakhelwane wakhe, umuzi umelene lomuzi, umbuso umelene lombuso.
“Ndichakuchidzira kumukirana pakati pavaIjipita, mununʼuna acharwa nomukoma, muvakidzani acharwa nowaakavakidzana naye, guta richarwisana nerimwe guta, umambo hucharwisana nohumwe umambo.
3 Lomoya wamaGibhithe uzathululwa phakathi kwawo, njalo ngizaginya icebo lawo; babesebebuza izithombe zawo, labathakathi, labalamadlozi, labalumbayo.
VaIjipita vachaora mwoyo, uye ndichaita kuti zvavanoronga zvive pasina; vachabvunza zvifananidzo nemweya yavakafa, nokumasvikiro navavuki.
4 Sengizavalela amaGibhithe esandleni samakhosi alukhuni; lenkosi elolaka izabusa phezu kwawo, kutsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla.
Ndichaisa vaIjipita mumaoko amambo ano utsinye uye mambo anotyisa achatonga pamusoro pavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
5 Lamanzi elwandle azacitsha, lomfula wome utshe.
Mvura yomurwizi ichapwa, uye mahombekombe erwizi achapwa agova akaoma.
6 Njalo bazakwala imifula, lezifudlana zeGibhithe zetshe zicitshe; imihlanga lebhuma kubune.
Migero ichanhuhwa; hova dzeIjipiti dzichaderera uye dzichapwa. Tsanga nenhokwe zvichauna,
7 Imihlanga ezifuleni, emilonyeni yezifula, lakho konke okuhlanyelweyo kwezifula kuzakoma, kuphetshethwe, kungabe kusaba khona.
uyewo zvinomera zvichitevedza Nairi, pamuromo werwizi. Minda yose yakadyarwa mujinga meNairi ichaoma, mbesa dzichapeperetswa nemhepo, hazvingazovapozve.
8 Njalo abagoli benhlanzi bazakhala, labo bonke abaphosa ingwegwe zokuthiya inhlanzi esifuleni bazalila; labendlala imbule ebusweni bamanzi bazaphela amandla.
Vabati vehove vachagomera uye vagorira, vose vanokanda zviredzo muna Nairi; vaya vanokanda mimbure pamusoro pemvura vacharukutika.
9 Labasebenzi ngefikalisi elicolekileyo labeluka okumhlophe bazakuba lenhloni.
Vanobata neshinda yakanaka vachapera simba, varuki vemicheka yakanaka vachashaya tariro.
10 Lezisekelo zayo zonke zizachotshozwa, lamadoda ayiziqatshwa azadana emphefumulweni.
Vanobata nemicheka vachaora mwoyo, uye vose vanobatira mubayiro vacharwadziwa mwoyo.
11 Isibili, iziphathamandla zeZowani ziyizithutha, iseluleko sabeluleki abahlakaniphileyo bakaFaro siyibuthutha. Litsho njani kuFaro lithi: Ngiyindodana yabahlakaniphileyo, indodana yamakhosi endulo?
Machinda eZoani haasi chinhu asi mapenzi; makurukota aFaro akachenjera anopa zano risina mano. Mungareva sei kuna Faro, kuti, “Ndini mumwe wavakachenjera, mudzidzi wamadzimambo akare?”
12 Pho, bangaphi abahlakaniphileyo bakho? Yebo, ake bakutshele, kabakwazi lokho iNkosi yamabandla ekucebileyo ngeGibhithe.
Zvino vakachenjera venyu varipiko? Ngavakuratidzei uye vakuzivisei zvakafungwa naJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro peIjipiti.
13 Iziphathamandla zeZowani sezibe yizithutha, iziphathamandla zeNofi zikhohlisiwe; bazaduhisa iGibhithe, insika yezizwe zayo.
Machinda eZoani ava mapenzi, vatungamiri veMemufisi vanyengerwa; mabwe ekona amarudzi avo atsausa Ijipiti.
14 INkosi ithulule umoya ophambeneyo phakathi kwayo; baduhise iGibhithe kukho konke ukwenza kwayo, njengodakiweyo ediyazela ekuhlanzeni kwakhe.
Jehovha akadururira mavari mweya wedzungu; vanoita kuti Ijipiti idzedzereke mune zvose zvainoita, sezvinoita chidhakwa chinodzedzereka mumarutsi acho.
15 Njalo kakuyikuba khona umsebenzi weGibhithe okungawenza inhloko kumbe umsila, ugatsha loba umhlanga.
Hapana chingaitwa neIjipiti, musoro kana muswe, davi romuchindwe kana rushanga.
16 Ngalolosuku iGibhithe izakuba njengabesifazana; izathuthumela yesabe ngenxa yokuzunguza kwesandla seNkosi yamabandla esizunguza phezu kwayo.
Pazuva iro, vaIjipita vachafanana navakadzi. Vachadedera nokutya panosimudzwa ruoko rwaJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro pavo.
17 Lelizwe lakoJuda lizakuba yisesabiso eGibhithe; wonke ozakhuluma ngalo uzakwethuka yena ngokwakhe ngenxa yecebo leNkosi yamabandla elicebileyo imelene layo.
Uye nyika yeJudha ichava chinhu chinotyisa kuvaIjipita; mumwe nomumwe achanzwa nezvaJudha achatya, nokuda kwezvinofungwa naJehovha Wamasimba Ose pamusoro pavo.
18 Ngalolosuku kuzakuba lemizi emihlanu elizweni leGibhithe ekhuluma ulimi lweKhanani, lefungayo eNkosini yamabandla. Omunye uzakuthiwa ngumuzi wokubhujiswa.
Pazuva iro, maguta mashanu omuIjipiti achataura mutauro weKenani uye vachapikira vachazvipira kuna Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. Rimwe racho richanzi Guta roKuparadza.
19 Ngalolosuku iNkosi izakuba lelathi phakathi kwelizwe leGibhithe, lensika yeNkosi emngceleni wayo.
Pazuva iro, pachava nearitari kuna Jehovha mukati chaimo meIjipiti, nembiru kuna Jehovha pamuganhu wayo.
20 Njalo izakuba yisibonakaliso ibe yibufakazi beNkosi yamabandla elizweni leGibhithe, ngoba bazakhala eNkosini ngenxa yabacindezeli, njalo izathuma kubo umsindisi lomkhulu ozabakhulula.
Ichava chiratidzo nechapupu kuna Jehovha Wamasimba Ose munyika yeIjipiti. Pavanodanidzira kuna Jehovha nokuda kwavamanikidzi vavo, achavatumira muponesi nomurwiri, ipapo achavanunura.
21 LeNkosi izakwaziwa kumaGibhithe; njalo amaGibhithe azayazi iNkosi ngalolosuku, azakwenza umhlatshelo lomnikelo, afunge isifungo eNkosini, asikhokhe.
Saka Jehovha achazviratidza kuvaIjipita, uye pazuva iro vachaziva Jehovha. Vachanamata nezvibayiro uye nezvipiriso zvezviyo; vachaita mhiko kuna Jehovha uye vagodzichengeta.
22 LeNkosi izatshaya iGibhithe, itshaye ibuye isilise; njalo bazaphendukela eNkosini, ezancengeka ngabo, ibasilise.
Jehovha acharova Ijipiti nehosha; acharova agovarapazve. Vachatendeukira kuna Jehovha, uye achapindura mikumbiro yavo nokuvarapa.
23 Ngalolosuku kuzakuba lomgwaqo omkhulu osuka eGibhithe usiya eAsiriya, ukuze amaAsiriya eze eGibhithe, lamaGibhithe eAsiriya; lamaGibhithe akhonze kanye lamaAsiriya.
Pazuva iro, pachava nenzira huru ichabva kuIjipiti ichienda kuAsiria. VaAsiria vachaenda kuIjipiti uye vaIjipita vachaendawo kuAsiria. VaIjipita navaAsiria vachanamata pamwe chete.
24 Ngalolosuku uIsrayeli uzakuba ngowesithathu leGibhithe leAsiriya, isibusiso phakathi komhlaba,
Pazuva iro Israeri ichava yechitatu, ichitevera Ijipiti neAsiria, ichava ropafadzo panyika.
25 ezababusisa iNkosi yamabandla isithi: Ibusisiwe iGibhithe abantu bami, leAsiriya umsebenzi wezandla zami, loIsrayeli ilifa lami.
Jehovha Wamasimba Ose achavaropafadza achiti, “Ngavaropafadzwe vaIjipita vanhu vangu, navaAsiria, basa ramaoko angu, navaIsraeri, nhaka yangu.”
