< 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.
Ekiseera ekyo bwe kirituuka abakazi musanvu balyekwata omusajja omu nga boogera nti, Tuyitibwenga erinnya lyo, otuggyeko ekivume. Tunenoonyezanga emmere yaffe era twenoonyeze n’ebyokwambala.
2 Ngalolosuku ihlumela leNkosi lizakuba ngelobuhle, njalo elodumo, lesithelo selizwe ngesokuhle kakhulu lokokubukeka kwabaphunyukileyo bakoIsrayeli.
Ku lunaku luli ettabi lya Mukama Katonda liriba ddungi era lya kitiibwa, era n’ebibala by’ensi biryeyagaza nnyo Abayisirayiri abaasigalawo.
3 Kuzakuthi-ke oseleyo eZiyoni lotshiywe eJerusalema athiwe ungcwele, wonke obhalelwe impilo eJerusalema;
Era buli alisigala mu Sayuuni na buli alisigala mu Yerusaalemi aliyitibwa mutukuvu, buli muntu alibalirwa mu balamu mu Yerusaalemi.
4 iNkosi isigezisile ingcekeza yamadodakazi eZiyoni, yahlambulula amacala egazi eJerusalema phakathi kwayo, ngomoya wesahlulelo langomoya wokutshisa.
Mukama aliggyawo obutali butuukirivu bw’abakazi ba Sayuuni, era n’omwoyo ogusala ensonga n’omwoyo ogwokya, alisangulawo amatondo g’omusaayi mu Yerusaalemi.
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.
Olwo Mukama Katonda atondewo ekire mu budde obw’emisana, n’omukka n’okumasaamasa ng’omuliro ogwaka ekiro ku kifo kyonna eky’olusozi Sayuuni ne ku bantu bonna abakuŋŋaaniddeko; kubanga ku byonna era wonna kunaaba kubikkiddwako ekitiibwa kya Katonda.
6 Njalo kuzakuba ledumba libe ngumthunzi emini ekutshiseni, njalo libe yisiphephelo, njalo libe yisivikelo esivunguvungwini lezulwini.
Era kiribeera ekibikka n’ekisiikirize ekiziyiza ebbugumu ly’emisana, era ekiddukiro omwewogomebwa kibuyaga n’enkuba.
