U-Isaya 51

1 Lalelani kimi, lina elidingisisa ukulunga, lina elidinga iNkosi; khangelani edwaleni elacezulwa kulo, lemlindini wegodi elagejwa kuwo.

“Fanongo kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku muimui ki he māʻoniʻoni, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku kumi kia Sihova: vakai ki he maka naʻe tā mei ai ʻakimoutolu, pea ki he ava ʻoe luo naʻe keli ʻakimoutolu mei ai.

2 Khangelani kuAbrahama uyihlo, lakuSara owalizalayo; ngoba ngambiza eyedwa, ngambusisa, ngamandisa.

Vakai kia ʻEpalahame ko hoʻomou tamai, pea kia Sela naʻa ne fua ʻakimoutolu: he naʻaku ui ia tokotaha pe, pea tāpuaki ia, pea u fakatokolahi ia.

3 Ngoba iNkosi izayiduduza iZiyoni, iduduze wonke amanxiwa ayo, njalo izakwenza inkangala yayo ifanane leEdeni, logwadule lwayo lufanane lensimu yeNkosi; injabulo lentokozo kuzatholakala kuyo, ukubonga lelizwi lokuhlabelela.

Koeʻuhi ʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sihova ʻi Saione: te ne fakafiemālieʻi hono ngaahi potu lala kotoa pē; pea te ne ngaohi hono toafa ke hangē ko Iteni, pea ko hono potu liʻaki ʻo hangē ko e ngoue ʻa Sihova; ʻe ʻilo ʻi ai ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka, ko e fakafetaʻi, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe Saame.

4 Lalelani kimi, bantu bami, libeke indlebe kimi, sizwe sami; ngoba umlayo uzaphuma kimi, njalo ngizakwenza ukwahlulela kwami kuphumule kube yikukhanya kwabantu.

“Fanongo kiate au, ʻa hoku kakai, pea tokanga kiate au, ʻa hoku puleʻanga: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻalu atu ʻiate au ha fono, pea te u ngaohi ʻeku fakamaau ke nofo ko e maama ʻoe kakai.

5 Ukulunga kwami kuseduze, usindiso lwami luphumile, lengalo zami zizakwehlulela abantu; izihlenge zingilindele, zithembele engalweni yami.

‌ʻOku ofi ʻeku māʻoniʻoni; kuo ʻalu atu ʻeku fakamoʻui, pea ʻe fakamaau ʻe hoku nima ʻae kakai; ʻe tatali kiate au ʻae ngaahi motu, pea te nau falala ki hoku nima.

6 Phakamiselani amehlo enu emazulwini, likhangele emhlabeni phansi; ngoba amazulu azanyamalala njengentuthu, lomhlaba uguge njengesembatho, labahlezi kuwo bafe ngokunjalo; kodwa usindiso lwami luzakuba phakade, lokulunga kwami kakuyikuchithwa.

Hiki hake homou mata ki he ngaahi langi, pea sio ki he māmani ʻi lalo: koeʻuhi ʻe mole fakafokifā ʻae ngaahi langi ʻo hangē ko e ʻohuafi, pea ʻe fakaʻau ʻo motuʻa ʻa māmani ʻo hangē ko e kofu, pea ʻe mate foki mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ai: ka ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻa ʻeku fakamoʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai ngata ʻeku māʻoniʻoni.

7 Lalelani kimi, lina elazi ukulunga, abantu abamlayo wami usenhliziyweni yabo; lingesabi ukusola kwabantu, kumbe lethuswe yizithuko zabo.

“Fanongo kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku ʻilo ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻae kakai ʻoku ʻi honau loto ʻa ʻeku fono; ʻoua te mou manavahē ki he valoki ʻae kakai, pea ʻoua te mou ilifia ʻi heʻenau lauʻikovi.

8 Ngoba inundu izabadla njengesembatho, lempethu ibadle njengoboya bezimvu, kodwa ukulunga kwami kuzakuba laphakade, losindiso lwami esizukulwaneni lezizukulwana.

Koeʻuhi ʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ane ʻo hangē ko e kofu, pea ʻe kai ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻuanga ʻo hangē ko e fulufuluʻi sipi: ka ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻa ʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pea ko ʻeku fakamoʻui mei he toʻutangata ki he toʻutangata.”

9 Vuka, vuka, uzembathise amandla, wena ngalo yeNkosi; vuka njengensukwini zendulo, ezizukulwaneni zaphakade. Kawusuwe yini lowo owaquma iRahabi, wagwaza umgobho?

Ke ke ʻā, ke ke ʻā, ʻai ʻae mālohi, ʻE nima ʻo Sihova; ke ke ʻā, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa, ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata ʻi muʻa. ʻIkai ko koe ia naʻe tuʻusi ʻa Lehapi, pea naʻe taaʻi ʻae talākoni?

10 Kawusuwe yini lowo owomisa ulwandle, amanzi enziki enkulu, owenza ukujula kolwandle kwaba yindlela yokuchapha kwabahlengiweyo?

‌ʻIkai ko koe ia kuo ke fakamōmoa ʻae tahi, ʻae ngaahi vai ʻoe fuʻu moana; ʻa koe kuo ngaohi ʻae ngaahi loloto ʻoe tahi koe hala ke ʻalu ai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi?

11 Ngakho abahlengiweyo beNkosi bazaphenduka, beze eZiyoni ngokuhlabelela; lentokozo elaphakade izakuba phezu kwekhanda labo; bazazuza intokozo lenjabulo, usizi lokububula kuzabaleka.

Ko ia, ʻe toe foki mai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi ʻe Sihova, pea haʻu mo e hiva ki Saione; pea ʻe ʻi honau ʻulu ʻae fiefia ʻo taʻengata: te nau maʻu ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka; pea ʻe puna atu ʻae mamahi mo e tangi.

12 Mina, mina nginguye oliduduzayo; ungubani wena ozakwesaba umuntu ozakufa, lendodana yomuntu ezakwenziwa ibe njengotshani?

“Ko au, ʻio, ko au ia, ʻoku fakafiemālieʻi koe: ko hai koe, ke ke manavahē ki ha tangata ʻaia ʻe mate, pea ki he foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia ʻe ngaohi ʻo hangē ko e mohuku;

13 Ubusukhohlwa iNkosi, umenzi wakho, eyendlala amazulu, yabeka izisekelo zomhlaba, uqhubeka usesaba usuku lonke ngenxa yentukuthelo yomcindezeli, kungathi uzimisele ukuchitha? Ingaphi-ke intukuthelo yomcindezeli?

Pea ʻoku ke fakangalongaloʻi ʻa Sihova ko ho tupuʻanga, ʻaia kuo ne fofola ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ai mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani; pea kuo ke manavahē maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e ʻita ʻo ia ʻoku fakamālohi, ʻo hangē ʻoku ne te u ke fakaʻauha? Pea kofaʻā ia ʻae lili ʻoe fakamālohi?

14 Isibotshwa esithunjiweyo siyaphangisa ukuze sikhululwe; singafeli emgodini, lokudla kwaso kungasweleki.

‌ʻOku lele toʻotoʻo ʻae pōpula ke vete ia, pea ke ʻoua naʻa mate ia ʻi he luo, pea ke ʻoua naʻa ʻosi ʻene mā.

15 Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho eyavusa ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome; iNkosi yamabandla libizo layo.

Ka ko au ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, naʻaku vaeua ʻae tahi, ʻaia naʻe ʻuʻulu hono peau: ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.

16 Njalo ngifakile amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho, ngakusibekela emthunzini wesandla sami, ukuze ngihlanyele amazulu, ngibeke izisekelo zomhlaba, ngithi kuyo iZiyoni: Wena uyisizwe sami.

Pea kuo u ʻai ʻeku ngaahi lea ki ho ngutu, pea kuo u fufū koe ʻaki ʻae malumalu ʻo hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke u tō ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ʻai mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani, pea pehē ki Saione, Ko koe ko hoku kakai.’”

17 Vuka, vuka, usukume, Jerusalema, wena onathe esandleni seNkosi inkezo yolaka lwayo, wanatha inzece zenkezo yokudengezela, wazikhoca.

Ke ke ʻā, ke ke ʻā, Tuʻu hake, ʻE Selūsalema, ʻa koe kuo inu ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻae ipu ʻo hono houhau; kuo ke inu ʻae efe ʻoe ipu ʻoe tetetete, pea tatau ia.

18 Kakho ongayikhokhela kuwo wonke amadodana ewazeleyo; njalo kakho ongayibamba ngesandla kuwo wonke amadodana ewakhulisileyo.

‌ʻOku ʻikai ha taha ke fakahinohino ia ʻi he ngaahi foha kotoa pē kuo ne fanauʻi; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha niʻihi ʻoku puke ki hono nima ʻi he ngaahi foha kotoa pē kuo ne tauhi.

19 Lokhu kokubili kukwehlele, ngubani ozakuzwela usizi? Incithakalo, lokubhujiswa, lendlala, lenkemba; ngizakududuza ngobani?

Kuo hoko ʻae meʻa ni ʻe ua kiate koe; ko hai ʻe mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe? Ko e maumau, mo fakaʻauha, mo e honge, mo e heletā: te u fakafiemālieʻi koe ʻia hai?

20 Amadodana akho aphelelwe ngamandla, alele esihlokweni sezitalada zonke, njengenkunzi yendle embuleni; agcwele ulaka lweNkosi, ukukhuza kukaNkulunkulu wakho.

Kuo pongia hoʻo ngaahi foha, ʻoku nau tokoto ʻi he ʻulu ʻoe ngaahi hala kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e pulu tangata ʻoku hehengi ʻi he kupenga: ʻoku nau fonu ʻi he houhau ʻo Sihova, mo e valoki mei ho ʻOtua.

21 Ngakho khathesi zwana lokhu, wena ohluphekayo lodakiweyo, kodwa hatshi ngewayini.

Ko ia fanongo ki he meʻa ni, ʻa koe ko e mahaki, mo e konā, kae ʻikai ʻi he uaine:

22 Itsho njalo iNkosi yakho, uJehova loNkulunkulu wakho olabhelela udaba lwabantu bakhe: Khangela, ngisusile esandleni sakho inkezo yokudengezela, inzece zenkezo yolaka lwami, kawusayikuyinatha futhi.

‌ʻOku pehē ho ʻEiki ko Sihova, pea ko ho ʻOtua ʻoku langomakiʻi ʻa hono kakai, “Vakai, kuo u toʻo mei ho nima ʻae ipu ʻoe tetetete, ʻio, ʻae efe ʻoe ipu ʻo hoku houhau; ʻe ʻikai te ke toe inu ia;

23 Kodwa ngizayibeka esandleni salabo abakuhluphayo, abathe emphefumulweni wakho: Khothama, ukuze sedlule phezulu; usubeke umhlana wakho njengomhlabathi, lanjengesitalada kwabadlula phezulu.

Ka te u ʻai ia ki he nima ʻonautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi koe; ʻakinautolu kuo pehē ki ho laumālie, ‘Punou hifo, ka mau laka atu:’ pea kuo ke fakatokoto ho sino ʻo hangē ko e kelekele, pea hangē ko e hala, kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu ai.”
