U-Isaya 4

1 Labesifazana abayisikhombisa bazabamba indoda ibenye ngalolosuku, bathi: Sizakudla okwethu ukudla, sigqoke ezethu izigqoko; kuphela ibizo lakho kalibizwe phezu kwethu; susa ihlazo lethu.

Tsiku limenelo akazi asanu ndi awiri adzagwira mwamuna mmodzi, nʼkunena kuti, “Ife tizidya chakudya chathuchathu, ndi kuvala zovala zathu; inu mungotilola kuti tidziyitanidwa ndi dzina lanu. Tichotseni manyazi aumbeta!”

2 Ngalolosuku ihlumela leNkosi lizakuba ngelobuhle, njalo elodumo, lesithelo selizwe ngesokuhle kakhulu lokokubukeka kwabaphunyukileyo bakoIsrayeli.

Tsiku limenelo Nthambi ya Yehova idzakhala yokongola ndi yaulemerero, ndipo chipatso cha mʼdziko chidzakhala chonyaditsa ndi chopereka ulemerero kwa onse opulumuka mu Israeli.

3 Kuzakuthi-ke oseleyo eZiyoni lotshiywe eJerusalema athiwe ungcwele, wonke obhalelwe impilo eJerusalema;

Iwo amene adzatsale mu Ziyoni, amene adzatsalire mu Yerusalemu, adzatchedwa oyera, onse amene mayina awo alembedwa pakati pa anthu amoyo okhala mu Yerusalemu.

4 iNkosi isigezisile ingcekeza yamadodakazi eZiyoni, yahlambulula amacala egazi eJerusalema phakathi kwayo, ngomoya wesahlulelo langomoya wokutshisa.

Ambuye adzasambitsa akazi a Ziyoni ndi kuchotsa zonyansa zawo. Adzatsuka magazi amene anakhetsedwa mu Yerusalemu ndi mzimu wachiweruzo ndiponso mzimu wamoto.

5 LeNkosi izadala phezu kwayo yonke indawo yokuhlala yentaba yeZiyoni, laphezu kwenhlangano zayo ezibiziweyo, iyezi emini, lentuthu, lokukhanya komlilo olamalangabi ebusuku; ngoba phezu kwayo yonke inkazimulo kuzakuba lesembeso esiluphahla.

Tsono Yehova adzayika mtambo wake pamwamba ponse pa phiri la Ziyoni, ndipo pa onse amene asonkhana masana padzakhala mtambo wa utsi ndipo usiku padzakhala malawi amoto. Pamwamba pa zonse padzakhala ulemerero wa Yehova.

6 Njalo kuzakuba ledumba libe ngumthunzi emini ekutshiseni, njalo libe yisiphephelo, njalo libe yisivikelo esivunguvungwini lezulwini.

Ulemerero wake udzakhala mthunzi wothawiramo kutentha kwa masana, udzakhala malo opeweramo mphepo ndi owusiramo mvula.
