U-Isaya 23
1 Umthwalo weTire. Qhinqani isililo, mikhumbi yeTarshishi, ngoba ichithiwe, ukuze kungabi lendlu, ukuthi kungabi lokungena. Kuvela elizweni leKitimi kwembuliwe kubo.
Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki Taia. Tangi, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻo Tasisi; he kuo liʻaki ia, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fale, pe ha hū ki loto: ʻoku fakahā ia kiate kinautolu mei he fonua ko Kitimi.
2 Thulani, bahlali besihlenge; wena abakugcwalisileyo abathengiselani beSidoni abachapha ulwandle.
Mou fakalongo pe, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kakai ʻoe motu; ʻa koe kuo fakamaʻumeʻaʻi ʻe he kakai fakatau ʻo Saitoni, ʻakinautolu ʻoku faʻa folau ʻi he tahi.
3 Langamanzi amakhulu, inzalo yeShihori, isivuno somfula yinzuzo yayo; njalo iyindawo yezizwe yokuthengiselana.
Ko ʻene koloa ko e tupu ʻoe tenga ʻi Sihoa ʻi he veʻe vai lahi, mo e ututaʻu mei he vaitafe; pea ko e fakatauʻanga ia ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga.
4 Woba lenhloni, Sidoni; ngoba ulwandle lukhulumile, amandla olwandle, lusithi: Kangihelelwa, kangibelethanga, kangikhulisanga amajaha, kangondlanga izintombi ezimsulwa.
Ke mā ʻa koe, ʻE Saitoni: he kuo lea ʻae tahi, ʻio, ʻae mālohi ʻoe tahi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u langa, pe fanauʻi ʻae fānau, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u tauhi ha kau talavou, pe akonakiʻi ha kau taʻahine.”
5 Njengasembikweni ngeGibhithe bazahelelwa ngombiko weTire.
ʻO hangē ko e ongoongo naʻe kau ki ʻIsipite, ʻe pehē ʻenau mamahi lahi ʻi he ongoongo ʻo Taia.
6 Chaphelani eTarshishi, qhinqani isililo, bahlali besihlenge.
ʻAlu hake ʻakimoutolu ki Tasisi; tangilāulau, ʻakimoutolu ko e kakai ʻoe motu.
7 Yiwo lo yini umuzi wenu ojabulayo, obudala bawo busukela ensukwini zendulo? Inyawo zawo zizawuthwalela khatshana ukuyahlala njengowezizwe.
Ko hoʻomou [kolo ]fakafiefia ʻa eni, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa? Ko hono vaʻe ʻoʻona te ne ʻave ia ki he mamaʻo ke ʻāunofo ai.
8 Ngubani oweluleke lokhu ngeTire, omethesi womqhele, obathengisi bayo bayiziphathamandla, obathengiselani bayo ngabadumileyo emhlabeni?
Ko hai kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻae meʻa ni ki Taia, ko e kolo naʻe faʻa fakanofo ʻae ngaahi pule, ko hono kakai fakatau ko e houʻeiki, pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fefakatauʻaki ʻi ai ko e kau ongoongo ʻi māmani?
9 INkosi yamabandla ikucebisile lokhu, ukonakalisa ukuzigqaja kodumo lonke, ukwenza badeleleke bonke abadumileyo bomhlaba.
Ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ki ai, ke fakamā ʻae laukau ʻoe nāunau kotoa pē, pea ke fakamatavaleaʻi ʻae kakai ongoongo kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
10 Dabula ilizwe lakho njengomfula, ndodakazi yeTarshishi; akuselamandla.
ʻE ʻofefine ʻo Tasisi, ke ke ʻalu ʻi ho fonua ʻo hangē ha vaitafe kuo maumauʻi hono kauvai.
11 Yelulele isandla sayo phezu kolwandle, inyikinye imibuso; iNkosi ilayezile imelene leKhanani, ukuchitha inqaba zayo.
Naʻa ne mafao hono nima ʻi he tahi, naʻa ne lulululu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga: kuo tuku mai ʻe Sihova ha fekau ʻoku kau ki he kolo fakatau, ke maumauʻi hono ngaahi potu mālohi.
12 Yasisithi: Kawusayikuphinda ujabule, ntombi emsulwa ecindezelweyo, ndodakazi yeSidoni; eKhithimu sukuma uchaphe; lakhona kakuyikuba lokuphumula kuwe.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, ʻE ʻikai te ke toe fiefia, ʻa koe ko e taʻahine kuo taʻomia, ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Saitoni: ke ke tuʻu hake, ʻalu atu ki Kitimi; pea naʻa mo ia ʻe ʻikai te ke maʻu ʻi ai ha mālōlō.
13 Khangela ilizwe lamaKhaladiya; lesisizwe sasingekho; amaSiriya asisekelela bona abahlala enkangala; amisa imiphotshongo yawo yokuvimbezela, abhidliza izigodlo zalo; alenza laba lunxiwa.
Vakai ki he fonua ʻoe kakai ʻo Kalitia; naʻe ʻikai ko ha kakai ʻakinautolu, ka ʻi heʻene toki langaʻi ia maʻanautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he toafa ʻe he kakai ʻo ʻAsilia: ko kinautolu ia naʻa nau fokotuʻu hono ngaahi fale leʻo, mo nau langa hake hono ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki; ka naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki he fakaʻauha.
14 Qhinqani isililo, mikhumbi yeTarshishi, ngoba inqaba yenu ichithekile.
Tangi, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻo Tasisi: he kuo maumauʻi ho potu mālohi.
15 Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku iTire ikhohlakale okweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa, njengokwensuku zenkosi eyodwa. Ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa kuzakuba khona eTire okunjengengoma yewule.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe fakangalo ʻa Taia ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitungofulu, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ha tuʻi ʻe taha: pea hili ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu ʻe hiva ʻa Taia ʻo hangē ko e fefine angahala.
16 Thatha ichacho, ubhode umuzi, wule elikhohlakeleyo, utshaye kamnandi, uhlabele ingoma ezinengi, ukuze ukhunjulwe.
Toʻo ha haʻape mo ke feʻaluʻaki ʻi he kolo, ʻa koe ko e fefine angahala naʻe fakangalo hifo; tā ʻae meʻa tā ke ongo mālie, hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi hiva lahi, koeʻuhi ke fakamanatuʻi koe.
17 Kuzakuthi-ke ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa iNkosi iyihambele iTire; njalo izabuyela ekuqhatshweni kobuwule bayo; izawula layo yonke imibuso yomhlaba phezu kobuso bomhlaba.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē hili ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu, ʻe ʻaʻahi ʻa Sihova ki Taia, pea ʻe foki ia ki heʻene totongi, pea te ne fai hala mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻoe kelekele.
18 Lokuthengiselana kwayo lokuqhatshwa kwayo kuzakuba yibungcwele eNkosini; kakuyikulondolozwa kumbe kubuthelelwe, ngoba inzuzo yayo yokuthengiselana izakuba ngeyabahlala phambi kweNkosi, ukuze badle basuthe, babe lezigqoko ezinhle.
Ka ko ʻene koloa mo ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻe fakatapui maʻa Sihova: ʻe ʻikai tānaki pe fakamaʻopoʻopo ia; he ko ʻene koloa ʻe ʻanautolu ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke mahu ʻae kai, pea tolonga ʻae kofu.
