< U-Isaya 49 >

1 Ngilalelani, zihlenge; lizwe, lina bantu abakhatshana: INkosi ingibizile ngisesiswini; ngisemibilini kamama yaqamba ibizo lami.
Fanongo, ʻE ngaahi motu, kiate au; pea fakafanongo, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kakai mei he mamaʻo; Kuo ui ʻe Sihova kiate au mei he manāva; mei he fatu ʻo ʻeku faʻē kuo ne lea ʻaki hoku hingoa.
2 Yasisenza umlomo wami waba njengenkemba ebukhali, yangifihla ngaphansi komthunzi wesandla sayo; yangenza ngibe ngumtshoko ololiweyo, yangifihla esambeni sayo semitshoko.
Pea kuo ne ngaohi hoku ngutu ʻo hangē ko e heletā māsila; ʻi he malumalu ʻo hono nima kuo ne fufū au, pea ngaohi au ko e ngahau ngingila; kuo ne fakafufū au ʻi hono ʻaiʻanga ngahau;
3 Yathi kimi: Uyinceku yami, Israyeli, engizazidumisa ngayo.
Pea ne pehē kiate au, “Ko koe, ʻE ʻIsileli, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki te u ongoongolelei ʻiate koe.”
4 Ngasengisithi mina: Ngitshikatshikele ize, amandla ami ngiwachithele okungelutho lokuyize; qiniso, isahlulelo sami siseNkosini, lomvuzo wami ukuNkulunkulu wami.
Pea ne u pehē, “Kuo u ngāue taʻeʻaonga: kuo u fakaʻosi noa pe ʻeku mālohi, pea taʻeʻaonga: ka ʻoku moʻoni ʻoku ʻia Sihova ʻeku fakamaau, pea ʻi hoku ʻOtua ʻa ʻeku ngāue.”
5 Khathesi-ke itsho iNkosi, eyangibumba kwasesiswini ukuba yinceku yayo yokubuyisela uJakobe kuyo; lanxa uIsrayeli engabuthwanga, kube kanti ngizadunyiswa emehlweni eNkosi; njalo uNkulunkulu wami uzakuba ngamandla ami.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne fakafuofua au mei he manāva ke hoko ko ʻene tamaioʻeiki, ke toe ʻomi ʻa Sēkope kiate ia, Kapau ʻe ʻikai tānaki ʻa ʻIsileli, ka te u ongoongolelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ʻe hoko ʻa hoku ʻOtua ko hoku mālohi.
6 Yasisithi: Kuyinto encane ukuthi ube yinceku yami yokuvusa izizwe zikaJakobe, lokubuyisela abalondoloziweyo bakoIsrayeli; ngizakupha futhi ube yikukhanya kwabezizwe, ukuze ube lusindiso lwami kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e meʻa siʻi ke ke hoko ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ke toe fokotuʻu ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Sēkope, pea ke fakailiili ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsileli kuo fakahaofi: pea te u foaki foki koe ko e maama ki he kakai Senitaile, koeʻuhi ke ke hoko ko hoku fakamoʻui ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani.”
7 Itsho njalo iNkosi, uMhlengi kaIsrayeli, oNgcwele wakhe, kumphefumulo odelelwayo, kuye onengwa yisizwe, kunceku yababusi: Amakhosi azabona asukume, iziphathamandla lazo zizakhonza, ngenxa yeNkosi ethembekileyo, oNgcwele kaIsrayeli, ekukhethileyo.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e Huhuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, pea mo hono tokotaha māʻoniʻoni, kiate ia ʻoku fehiʻa ki ai ʻae tangata, kiate ia ʻoku fakaliliʻa ki ai ʻae puleʻanga, ki he tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau pule, “ʻE mamata pea tuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, ʻe lotu ʻae ngaahi houʻeiki, koeʻuhi ko Sihova ʻaia ʻoku angatonu, pea mo e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ne fili koe.”
8 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngesikhathi esemukelekayo ngikuphendulile, langosuku losindiso ngikusizile; njalo ngizakulondoloza, ngikunike ube yisivumelwano sabantu, ukuvuselela umhlaba, ukubenza badle amafa achithekileyo,
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻI he kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie kuo u fanongo kiate koe, pea ʻi he ʻaho fakamoʻui kuo u tokoni kiate koe: pea te u maluʻi koe, pea foaki koe ko e fuakava ʻoe kakai, ke fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa māmani, ke ngaohi ke toe kakai ʻae ngaahi ʻapi liʻaki;
9 ukuze uthi kuzibotshwa: Phumani; kwabasemnyameni: Zivezeni. Bazakudla ezindleleni, ledlelo labo libe semadundulwini wonke.
Koeʻuhi ke ke pehē ki he kau pōpula, ‘ʻAlu atu;’ kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he poʻuli, ‘Fakahā ʻakimoutolu.’ Te nau kai ʻi he ngaahi hala, pea ʻe ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga kotoa pē ʻa ʻenau meʻakai.
10 Kabayikulamba, kumbe bome, njalo ukutshisa kumbe ilanga kakuyikubatshaya, ngoba yena olesihawu kibo uzabakhokhela, lemithonjeni yamanzi uzabaqondisa.
‌ʻE ʻikai te nau fiekaia pe fieinu; pea ʻe ʻikai teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻe he pupuha pe ʻe he laʻā: he ko ia ʻoku ʻaloʻofa kiate kinautolu te ne tataki ʻakinautolu, ʻio, te ne fakahinohino ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi matavai.
11 Njalo ngizakwenza zonke intaba zami zibe yindlela, lemigwaqo yami iphakame.
Pea te u ngaohi hoku ngaahi moʻunga kotoa pē ko e hala, pea ʻe hakeakiʻi ʻa hoku ngaahi hala motuʻa.
12 Khangela laba bazavela khatshana, njalo khangela laba ngasenyakatho langasentshonalanga, lalaba elizweni leSinimi.
Vakai, ʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu mei he tokelau pea mei he lulunga; pea mo kinautolu ni mei he fonua ko Sinimi.
13 Hlabelelani, mazulu, uthokoze, lawe mhlaba, lihlokome ngokuhlabela, lani zintaba, ngoba iNkosi ibaduduzile abantu bayo, izakuba lesihawu kwabahluphekileyo bayo.
Hiva, ʻae ngaahi langi; pea ke fiefia, ʻE māmani; pea ke pā mai ʻi he hiva, ʻae ngaahi moʻunga: he kuo fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa hono kakai, pea te ne ʻaloʻofa ki hono kakai mamahi.
14 Kodwa iZiyoni yathi: UJehova ungidelile, njalo iNkosi yami ingikhohliwe.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Saione, “Kuo liʻaki au ʻe Sihova, pea kuo fakangalongaloʻi au ʻe hoku ʻEiki.”
15 Owesifazana angamkhohlwa yini umntanakhe omunyayo, ukuba angabi lasihawu kuyo indodana yesisu sakhe? Yebo, bona bangakhohlwa, kodwa mina kangiyikukukhohlwa.
“ʻE faʻa fakangalongaloʻi ʻe ha fefine ʻene tama ʻoku huhu, ke ne taʻeʻofa ai ki he tama ʻa hono manāva? ʻIo, te nau faʻa fakangalo nai, ka e ʻikai te u fakangalongaloʻi koe.
16 Khangela, ngikubhale ngokugubha ezintendeni zezandla; imiduli yakho ihlezi iphambi kwami.
Vakai, kuo u tohi tongi koe ʻi hoku ʻaofi nima; ʻoku ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē ʻa hoʻo ngaahi ʻā.
17 Abantwana bakho bazaphangisa; abachithi bakho labakumotshayo bazaphuma kuwe.
‌ʻE fai vave hoʻo fānau; ko ho ngaahi fili pea mo kinautolu naʻe fakamasivaʻi koe te nau ʻalu ʻiate koe.
18 Phakamisa amehlo akho inhlangothi zonke, ukhangele; bonke laba bayabuthana, beze kuwe. Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi, isibili, uzazigqokisa ngabo bonke njengesiceciso, uzibhince ngabo njengomakoti.
Hiki hake ho mata ʻo sio takatakai, pea vakai: ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tānaki fakataha ʻakinautolu, ke haʻu kiate koe. ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻOku ou moʻui, pea te ke fakakofuʻi koe ʻaki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e meʻa teunga, pea nonoʻo ia kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku fai ʻe he taʻahine taʻane.
19 Ngoba indawo zakho ezichithekileyo lamanxiwa akho, lelizwe lencithakalo yakho, isibili khathesi lizaminyana kakhulu ngenxa yabahlali; lalabo abakuginyayo bazakuba khatshana.
“He ko ho ngaahi potu maumau mo taʻekakai, pea mo e fonua ʻo hoʻo fakaʻauha, ʻe hoko ni ʻo lausiʻi koeʻuhi ko e kakai, pea ko kinautolu naʻe folo hifo koe te nau mamaʻo atu.
20 Abantwana bokufelwa kwakho bazakuthi futhi endlebeni zakho: Lindawo iminyene kakhulu kimi; ngivulela indawo ukuze ngihlale!
Ko e fānau te ke maʻu, hili ʻae mole ʻiate koe ʻae taha, te nau pehē ʻi ho telinga, ‘ʻOku siʻi ʻae potu ni kiate au: fakaʻataʻatā ʻae potu ke u nofo ai.’
21 Khona uzakuthi enhliziyweni yakho: Ngubani ongizalele laba, njengoba ngafelwa ngabantwana, ngaba njengenyumba, ngingumthunjwa, ngisiwa le lale? Njalo ngubani okhulise laba? Khangela mina ngangisele ngedwa; laba babengaphi?
Pea te ke toki pehē ʻi ho loto, “Ko hai kuo ne fakatupu kiate au ʻakinautolu ni, kae vakai kuo mole ʻiate au ʻeku fānau, pea ʻoku ou masiva, ko e pōpula, mo e liʻaki? Pea ko hai kuo ne tauhi ʻakinautolu ni? Vakai, naʻe liʻaki au tokotaha pe; ko kinautolu ni, naʻa nau ʻi fē?”
22 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizaphakamisela izizwe isandla sami, ngimise uphawu lwami ebantwini; njalo bazaletha amadodana akho esifubeni, lamadodakazi akho bewetshete.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova, “Vakai, te u hiki hake hoku nima ki he kakai Senitaile, pea fokotuʻu ʻeku fuka ki he kakai: pea te nau ʻomi ho ngaahi foha ʻi honau nima, mo ho ngaahi ʻofefine ʻe fua ʻi honau uma.
23 Lamakhosi azakuba ngabondli bakho, lezindlovukazi zawo zibe ngabalizane bakho. Bazakukhothamela ngobuso emhlabathini, bakhothe uthuli lwezinyawo zakho. Njalo uzakwazi ukuthi mina ngiyiNkosi, ngoba abangithembayo kabayikuyangeka.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ko hoʻo ngaahi tamai ke tauhi fānau, pea ko e ngaahi tuʻi fefine ko hoʻo ngaahi fale ke tauhi hoʻo fānau: te nau punou hifo kiate koe ʻaki honau mata ki he kelekele, pea ʻemo ʻae efu ʻo ho vaʻe; pea te ke ʻilo ko au ko Sihova: pea ʻe ʻikai mā ʻakinautolu ʻoku tatali ʻiate au.”
24 Impango izathathwa yini kolamandla, kumbe umthunjwa ngokomthetho akhululwe?
‌ʻE toʻo ʻae koloa kuo vetea mei he mālohi, pe tukuange ʻae pōpula totonu?
25 Kodwa itsho njalo iNkosi: Yebo, abathunjiweyo beqhawe bazathathwa, lempango yabesabekayo izakophulwa; ngoba mina ngizalwisana laye olwisana lawe, mina-ke ngisindise abantwana bakho.
Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻIo ko e ngaahi pōpula ʻoe kakai mālohi ʻe faʻao, pea ʻe tuku atu ʻae koloa kuo vete ʻe he kakai fakamanavahē: koeʻuhi te u fai mo ia ʻoku fai mo koe, pea te u fakamoʻui hoʻo fānau.
26 Njalo ngizadlisa abacindezeli bakho eyabo inyama, badakwe ngelabo igazi kungathi ngewayini elimnandi. Njalo yonke inyama izakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi nginguMsindisi wakho, loMhlengi wakho, oLamandla kaJakobe.
Pea te u fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakamālohiʻi koe ʻaki honau sino ʻonautolu; pea te nau konā ʻi honau toto, ʻo hangē ha uaine foʻou: pea ʻe ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, Ko au ko Sihova ko ho Fakamoʻui, mo ho Huhuʻi, ko e Toko Taha Māfimafi ʻo Sēkope.”
