U-Isaya 2

1 Ilizwi uIsaya indodana kaAmozi alibona ngoJuda leJerusalema.

The word which he saw Isaiah [the] son of Amoz on Judah and Jerusalem.

2 Kuzakuthi-ke ekupheleni kwezinsuku intaba yendlu yeNkosi imiswe engqongeni yezintaba, iphakanyiswe phezu kwamaqaqa; lazo zonke izizwe zizajulukela kuyo.

And it will be - at [the] end of the days established it will be [the] mountain of [the] house of Yahweh [the] chief of the mountains and lifted up more than [the] hills and they will stream to it all the nations.

3 Lezizwe ezinengi zizahamba zithi: Wozani senyukele entabeni yeNkosi, endlini kaNkulunkulu kaJakobe, njalo uzasifundisa ngendlela zakhe, sihambe emikhondweni yakhe; ngoba kuzaphuma umlayo eZiyoni, lelizwi leNkosi eJerusalema.

And they will come peoples many and they will say come - so we may go up to [the] mountain of Yahweh to [the] house of [the] God of Jacob so he may teach us of ways his so we may walk in paths his for from Zion it will go forth instruction and [the] word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

4 Njalo izakwahlulela phakathi kwezizwe, ikhuze abantu abanengi; njalo bazakhanda inkemba zabo zibe yizikali zamakhuba, lemikhonto yabo ibe zingqamu zokuthena izihlahla; isizwe kasiyikuphakamisela isizwe inkemba, kazisayikufunda impi futhi.

And he will judge between the nations and he will decide for peoples many and they will beat swords their plowshares and spears their pruning knives not it will lift up nation against nation sword and not they will learn again warfare.

5 Ndlu kaJakobe, wozani sihambe ekukhanyeni kweNkosi.

O house of Jacob come so let us walk in [the] light of Yahweh.

6 Ngoba ubadelile abantu bakho, indlu kaJakobe, ngoba bagcwele okwempumalanga, bayizanuse njengamaFilisti, bazijabulisa ngabantwana bezizwe.

For you have abandoned people your [the] house of Jacob for they are full from [the] east and soothsayers like the Philistines and with [the] children of foreigners they clap hands.

7 Lelizwe labo ligcwaliswe isiliva legolide, njalo kakulakuphela kwenotho yabo; lelizwe labo ligcwaliswe amabhiza, njalo kakulakuphela kwenqola zabo.

And it has been filled land its silver and gold and there not [is] an end to treasures its and it has been filled land its horses and there not [is] an end to chariots its.

8 Lelizwe labo ligcwaliswe izithombe; bakhothamela imisebenzi yezandla zabo, lokho iminwe yabo ekwenzileyo.

And it has been filled land its idols to [the] work of hands his they bow down to [that] which they have made fingers his.

9 Lomuntukazana uyakhothama, lomuntu omkhulu azithobe; ngakho kawubaxoleli.

And he has been humbled everyone and he has become low everyone and may not you forgive them.

10 Ngena edwaleni, ucatshe othulini, ngenxa yokwesabeka kweNkosi, langenxa yodumo lobukhosi bayo.

Go in the rock and hide yourself in the dust from before [the] dread of Yahweh and from [the] splendor of majesty his.

11 Amehlo aziqhenyayo omuntu azakwehliselwa phansi, lokuzikhukhumeza kwabantu kuzakhothanyiswa, njalo iNkosi kuphela izaphakanyiswa ngalolosuku.

Eyes of haughtiness of a person it will become low and it will be humbled [the] pride of people and he will be exalted Yahweh to only him in the day that.

12 Ngoba usuku lweNkosi yamabandla luzakuba phezu kwakhe wonke ozigqajayo lozikhukhumezayo, lumelane laye wonke oziphakamisayo, ukuze athotshiswe,

For a day [belongs] to Yahweh of hosts on every proud [thing] and lofty [thing] and on every [thing] lifted up and [it will be] low.

13 lumelane layo yonke imisedari yeLebhanoni emide lephakemeyo, lumelane lazo zonke izihlahla zama-okhi zeBashani,

And on all [the] cedars of Lebanon that are lofty and which are lifted up and on all [the] oaks of Bashan.

14 lumelane lazo zonke intaba ezinde, lumelane lawo wonke amaqaqa aphakemeyo,

And on all the mountains that are lofty and on all the hills that are lifted up.

15 lumelane lawo wonke umphotshongo ophakemeyo, lumelane lawo wonke umthangala obiyelweyo,

And on every tower high and on every wall fortified.

16 lumelane layo yonke imikhumbi yeTarshishi, lumelane layo yonke imifanekiso eloyisekayo.

And on all [the] ships of Tarshish and on all [the] ships of desire.

17 Lokuziqhenya kwabantu kuzakhothanyiswa, lokuzikhukhumeza kwabantu kuzathotshiswa, leNkosi kuphela izaphakanyiswa ngalolusuku.

And it will be humbled [the] haughtiness of humankind and it will become low [the] pride of people and he will be exalted Yahweh to only him in the day that.

18 Lezithombe zizaphela du.

And the idols completely it will pass away.

19 Bazangena-ke ezimbalwini zamadwala lemihomeni yomhlaba, ngenxa yokwesabeka kweNkosi langenxa yodumo lokuphakama kwayo, lapho izavuka ukuqhaqhazelisa umhlaba.

And people will go in caves of [the] rocks and in holes of [the] ground from before [the] dread of Yahweh and from [the] splendor of majesty his when arises he to terrify the earth.

20 Ngalolosuku umuntu uzalahlela emagundwaneni lakubolulwane izithombe zakhe zesiliva lezithombe zakhe zegolide abazenzela zona ukuzikhonza,

In the day that it will throw away humankind [the] idols of silver its and [the] idols of gold its which they made for himself to bow down to [the] digging of moles and to the bats.

21 ukungena ezingoxweni zamadwala lezingoxweni zamawa, ngenxa yokwesabeka kweNkosi langenxa yodumo lokuphakama kwayo, lapho izavuka ukuqhaqhazelisa umhlaba.

To go in [the] crevices of the rocks and in [the] clefts of the cliffs from before [the] dread of Yahweh and from [the] splendor of majesty his when arises he to terrify the earth.

22 Lina phezani kumuntu, omphefumulo wakhe usemakhaleni akhe; ngoba unakanwa kukuphi?

Cease yourselves from humankind whom breath [is] in nostril[s] his for how? to be accounted [is] he.
