U-Isaya 47
1 Yehla, uhlale othulini, ntombi emsulwa, ndodakazi yeBhabhiloni; hlala emhlabathini; akulasihlalo sobukhosi, ndodakazi yamaKhaladiya; ngoba kawusayikubizwa ngokuthi uthambile njalo ubuthakathaka.
“Ɖi ɖe anyi nànɔ ke me, wò Babilonia ƒe vinyɔnu si menya ŋutsu o. Wò Babiloniatɔwo ƒe vinyɔnu, nɔ anyi ɖe anyigba, menye ɖe fiazikpui dzi o. Womagayɔ wò be lɔlɔ̃vi alo ame si woalé be na o.
2 Thatha amatshe okuchola, uchole impuphu, wembule isimbombozo sakho, ukhwince ilogwe, uveze umlenze, uchaphe imifula.
Yi te dzi nàtu wɔ. Ɖe wò motsyɔvɔ da ɖi. Klo wò avɔ ɖe dzi. Na wò afɔwo nadze, eye nàtso tɔwo.
3 Ubunqunu bakho buzakwembulwa, yebo, ihlazo lakho libonakale. Ngizaphindisela, ngingahlangani lawe njengomuntu.
Woaɖe amama wò, eye woaklo nu le wò ŋukpeƒe dzi. Mabia hlɔ̃, eye nyemaɖe ame aɖeke le eme o.”
4 UMhlengi wethu, iNkosi yamabandla libizo lakhe, oyiNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
Miaƒe Ɖelae nye Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la. Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔe nye eŋkɔ.
5 Hlala ngokuthula, ungene emnyameni, ndodakazi yamaKhaladiya; ngoba kawusayikubizwa ngokuthi: Nkosikazi yemibuso.
“Babiloniatɔwo ƒe vinyɔnu nɔ anyi le ɖoɖoezizi me. Yi ɖe blukɔ me. Womagayɔ wò be, Fiaɖuƒewo ƒe fianyɔnu o.
6 Ngabathukuthelela abantu bami, ngangcolisa ilifa lami, ngabanikela esandleni sakho; kawubenzelanga izihawu; walenza laba nzima kakhulu ijogwe lakho phezu komdala.
Medo dziku ɖe nye amewo ŋuti, eye medo gu nye domenyinu. Metsɔ wo de asi na wò, eye mekpɔ nublanui na wo o. Ètsɔ kɔkuti kpekpe da ɖe ametsitsi belibeliwo gɔ̃ hã dzi.
7 Wena wathi: Ngizakuba yinkosikazi njalonjalo; kawukabeki lezizinto enhliziyweni yakho, kawukhumbulanga isiphetho sakho.
Ègblɔ be, ‘Nye la, mayi edzi tegbee. Manye fianyɔnu yi ɖe mavɔ me!’ Ke mèbu nu siawo ŋu alo de ŋugble le nu si ava dzɔ la ŋu o.
8 Khathesi-ke zwana lokhu, wena ozithokozisayo, ohlezi uvikelekile, othi enhliziyweni yakho: Yimi, njalo kakho omunye ngaphandle kwami; kangiyikuhlala okomfelokazi, kangiyikwazi ukufelwa ngabantwana.
“Ke azɔ la, ɖo to afii. Wò nugblẽla vloe si ɖe dzi ɖi blewu le wò dedinɔnɔ me, eye nègblɔ na ɖokuiwò be, ‘Nye koe, mawu aɖeke megali kpe ɖe ŋunye o. Nyemanye ahosi alo ana vinyewo natsrɔ̃ o.’
9 Kodwa lezizinto ezimbili zizakwehlela ngokucwayiza kwelihlo ngasuku lunye: Ukufelwa ngabantwana lobufelokazi; kuzakwehlela phezu kwakho ngokuphelela kwakho, ngenxa yobunengi bobuthakathi bakho, ngenxa yobunengi obukhulu bamalumbo akho.
Esiawo kple evea katã ava dziwò le aɖabaƒoƒo ɖeka me le ŋkeke ɖeka dzi. Viwòwo atsrɔ̃, eye nàzu ahosi. Wo katã woava dziwò pɛpɛpɛ togbɔ be afakalawo kple gbesa sesẽ geɖewo le asiwò hã.
10 Ngoba wathembela ebubini bakho, wathi: Kakho ongibonayo. Inhlakanipho yakho lolwazi lwakho khona kwakuphambula, wathi enhliziyweni yakho: Yimi, njalo kakho omunye ngaphandle kwami.
Èka ɖe wò vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖitɔnyenye dzi hegblɔ be, ‘Ame aɖeke mekpɔam o.’ Wò nunya kple gɔmesese ble wò nègblɔ na ɖokuiwò be, ‘Nye koe, mawu aɖeke megali kpe ɖe ŋunye o.’
11 Ngakho ububi buzakwehlela, kawusoze wazi lapho obenyuka khona; lengozi izakwehlela, ongelakho ukwenza inhlawulo yokuthula ngayo; lencithakalo ihle yehlele phezu kwakho, ungazi.
Gbegblẽ aƒo ɖe dziwò, eye mànya ale si nàwɔ asa gbe adee wòadzo o. Dzɔgbevɔ̃e adzɔ ɖe dziwò, esi màte ŋu aɖe ɖa kple awɔbanu o. Tsɔtsrɔ̃ si mèle mɔ kpɔm na o la, aƒo ɖe dziwò kpoyi.
12 Mana khathesi ngamalumbo akho langobunengi bobuthakathi bakho otshikatshike kukho kusukela ebutsheni bakho; mhlawumbe uzakuba lakho ukuba lenzuzo, mhlawumbe unqobe.
“Eya ta yi wò amlimagbesawo, wò nukakawo dzi, esiwo me nèƒo ɖokuiwò ɖo tso wò ɖevime ke. Ɖewohĩ akpɔ dzidzedze, ɖewohĩ ahe ŋɔdzi vɛ.
13 Udiniwe ebunengini bamacebo akho; kakuthi basukume khathesi abahloli bamazulu, abakhangela izinkanyezi, abazisa ngezinyanga, bakusindise kwezizakwehlela.
Aɖaŋudede gbogbo siwo katã nèxɔ la, ɖeko wona nègbɔdzɔ! Na wò ɣletivimenunyalawo nava. Ame siwo léa ŋku ɖe ɣletiviwo ŋu hegblɔa nya ɖi dzinu sia dzinu la, na ne woaɖe wò tso nu siwo gbɔna dzɔdzɔ ge ɖe dziwò la me.
14 Khangela, bazakuba njengamabibi; umlilo uzabatshisa; kabayikuzophula emandleni elangabi; lingabikho ilahle lokotha, umlilo wokuhlala phambi kwawo.
Vavãe wole abe atitakpo ƒuƒu ene. Dzo afia wo katã. Womate ŋu aɖe wo ɖokui gɔ̃ hã tso dzo ƒe aɖewo me o. Afi sia dzoka xɔxɔwo meli ame aɖeke naƒu o. Afi sia womedo dzo ɖi, ame aɖeke naƒu o.
15 Bazakuba njalo kuwe labo owatshikatshika labo, owathengiselana labo kusukela ebutsheni bakho; bazazulazula, ngulowo lalowo ngendlela yakhe; kakuyikuba lomsindisi wakho.
Ame siwo nèwɔ dɔ sesẽwo kpli, eye nèzɔ mɔ geɖewo kpli wo tso wò ɖevime ke la, esia koe nye nu si woate ŋu awɔ na wò. Ɖe sia ɖe lé eƒe mɔ tsɔ le vodada me, eye ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ hã meli si aɖe wò o.”
