U-Isaya 61
1 UMoya weNkosi uJehova uphezu kwami, ngoba iNkosi ingigcobile ukuthi ngitshumayele indaba ezinhle kwabamnene; ingithumile ukubopha abalenhliziyo ezidabukileyo, ukumemezela inkululeko kwabathunjiweyo, lokuvulwa kwentolongo kwababotshiweyo;
Omwoyo wa Mukama Katonda ali ku nze, kubanga Mukama anfuseeko amafuta okubuulira abaavu n’abali obubi ebigambo ebirungi, antumye okuyimusa abalina emitima egimenyese. Okulangirira eddembe eri abawambe, n’abasibe bateebwe bave mu makomera.
2 ukumemezela umnyaka owemukelekayo weNkosi, losuku lwempindiselo lukaNkulunkulu wethu; ukududuza bonke abalilayo;
Okulangirira omwaka gwa Mukama ogw’okulabiramu obulungi bwe; olunaku lwa Mukama olw’okuwalanirako eggwanga era n’okuzzaamu amaanyi abo bonna abakungubaga.
3 ukumisa kwabalilayo beZiyoni, ukubanika ubuhle esikhundleni somlotha, amafutha enjabulo endaweni yokulila, isembatho sendumiso endaweni yomoya obuthakathaka; ukuze babizwe ngokuthi yizihlahla ezinkulu zokulunga, ukuhlanyelwa kweNkosi, ukuze idunyiswe.
Okugabirira abo bonna abali mu Sayuuni abakungubaga, okubawa engule ey’obubalagavu mu kifo ky’evvu, n’amafuta ag’essanyu mu kifo ky’ennaku. Ekyambalo ky’okutendereza mu kifo ky’omwoyo w’okukeŋŋeentererwa balyoke bayitibwe miti gy’abutuukirivu, ebisimbe bya Mukama, balyoke baweebwe ekitiibwa.
4 Njalo bazakwakha amanxiwa amadala, bavuse izincithakalo zakuqala, balungise imizi engamanxiwa, izincithakalo zezizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
Baliddamu bazimbe ebyali bizise, balirongoosa ebibuga ebyali byerabirwa edda.
5 Labezizwe bazakuma beluse imihlambi yenu, lamadodana awemzini abe ngabalimi benu labaphathi benu bezivini.
Abaamawanga balibalundira ebisibo byammwe, abagwira babakolere mu nnimiro zammwe ne mu nnimiro z’emizabbibu.
6 Kodwa lina lizabizwa ngokuthi lingabaPristi beNkosi; lithiwe liyiziKhonzi zikaNkulunkulu wethu; lizakudla inotho yabezizwe, lizincome ngodumo lwazo.
Era muyitibwe bakabona ba Mukama, abantu baliboogerako ng’abaweereza ba Mukama, mulirya obugagga bw’amawanga, era mu bugagga bwabwe mwe mulyenyumiririza.
7 Esikhundleni sehlazo lenu lizakuba lokuphindwe kabili; langokuyangeka bazajabula ngesabelo sabo; ngakho elizweni labo bazafuya okuphindwe kabili, intokozo elaphakade ibe ngeyabo.
Mu kifo ky’ensonyi, abantu bange baliddizibwawo emirundi ebiri. Mu kifo ky’okuswala basanyuke olw’ebyo bye balifuna era balifuna omugabo gwa mirundi ebiri, essanyu lyabwe liribeerera emirembe gyonna.
8 Ngoba mina Nkosi ngithanda isahlulelo; ngizonda impango emhlatshelweni otshiswayo; njalo ngizanika umvuzo wabo ngeqiniso, ngenze labo isivumelwano esilaphakade.
“Kubanga nze, Mukama, njagala obwenkanya, nkyawa okunyaga era n’obutali butuukirivu. Mu bwesigwa bwange ndibasasula era nkole nabo endagaano ey’emirembe n’emirembe.
9 Lenzalo yabo izakwaziwa phakathi kwabezizwe, lembewu yabo phakathi kwabantu; bonke abababonayo bazabazi ukuthi bayinzalo iNkosi eyibusisileyo.
N’ezzadde lyabwe liritutumuka nnyo mu mawanga n’abaana baabwe eri abantu. Abo bonna abalibalaba balibamanya, nti bantu Mukama be yawa omukisa.”
10 Ngizathokoza lokuthokoza eNkosini; umphefumulo wami uzajabula kuNkulunkulu wami; ngoba ungigqokise izembatho zosindiso; ungembese ngebhatshi lokulunga, njengomyeni ezicecise ngesiceciso sobukhosi, lanjengomakoti ezicecise ngokuligugu kwakhe.
Nsanyukira nnyo mu Mukama, emmeeme yange esanyukira mu Katonda wange. Kubanga annyambazizza ebyambalo eby’obulokozi era n’anteekako n’omunagiro ogw’obutuukirivu, ng’omugole omusajja bw’ayambala engule nga kabona, ng’omugole omukazi bw’ayambala amayinja ge ag’omuwendo.
11 Ngoba njengomhlaba uveza ihlumela lawo, lanjengesivande sikhulisa okuhlanyelweyo kiso, ngokunjalo iNkosi uJehova izakwenza ukulunga lodumo kuhlume phambi kwezizwe zonke.
Kuba nga ettaka bwe livaamu ebimera, era ng’ennimiro bwereetera ensigo okumeruka, bw’atyo Mukama Katonda bwalireeta obutuukirivu n’ettendo okumeruka, ensi zonna zikirabe.
