U-Isaya 64
1 Kungathi ungadabula amazulu, wehlele phansi, izintaba zigeleze ebukhoneni bakho;
if you tore [the] heavens you came down from before you mountains they shook.
2 njengokutshisa komlilo oncibilikisayo, umlilo wenze amanzi abile, ukulazisa ibizo lakho ezitheni zakho, ukuze izizwe zithuthumele ebukhoneni bakho.
As kindles fire brushwood water it boils fire to make known name your to opponents your from before you nations they will quake.
3 Ekwenzeni kwakho izinto ezesabekayo esasingazilindelanga, wehlela phansi; izintaba zageleza ebukhoneni bakho.
When doing you awesome [deeds] [which] not we were looking for you came down from before you mountains they shook.
4 Ngoba kusukela endulo kabezwanga, kabalalelanga ngendlebe, ilihlo kalibonanga, Nkulunkulu, ngaphandle kwakho, osebenzela lowo olindele kuye.
And from long ago not people have heard not people have given ear eye not it has seen a God besides you [who] he acts for [one who] waits for him.
5 Uhlangabeza othokozayo lowenza ukulunga, abakukhumbulayo ezindleleni zakho. Khangela, wena wathukuthela, ngoba sonile; kuzo kulokuqhubeka, njalo sizasindiswa.
You meet [one who] rejoices and [one who] does righteousness in ways your they remember you there! you you were angry and we sinned in them long duration so we may be saved?
6 Kodwa sonke sinjengongcolileyo, lakho konke ukulunga kwethu kunjengezidwedwe ezingcolileyo; njalo sonke siyabuna njengehlamvu, leziphambeko zethu, njengomoya, zisiphephule.
And we have become like unclean [person] all of us and [are] like a garment of menstruation all righteousness our and we have withered like leafage all of us and iniquities our like the wind they carry off us.
7 Njalo kakho obiza ibizo lakho, ozivusela ukubambelela kuwe; ngoba ufihlile ubuso bakho kithi, wasicikiza ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu.
And there not [is one who] calls on name your [one who] rouses himself to take hold on you for you have hidden face your from us and you have melted us in [the] hand of iniquity our.
8 Kodwa, khathesi, Nkosi, wena ungubaba wethu; thina silibumba, wena-ke ungumbumbi wethu; njalo sonke singumsebenzi wesandla sakho.
And now O Yahweh [are] father our you we [are] the clay and you [are] [the] [one who] formed us and [are] [the] work of hand your all of us.
9 Ungathukutheli wedlulise, Nkosi, ungakhumbuli ububi phakade. Khangela, ake ubone, sonke singabantu bakho.
May not you be angry O Yahweh up to muchness and may not for ever you remember iniquity here! look please [are] people your all of us.
10 Imizi yakho engcwele isiyinkangala, iZiyoni isiyinkangala, iJerusalema iyincithakalo.
[the] cities of Holiness your they have been a wilderness Zion a wilderness it has been Jerusalem [is] a desolation.
11 Indlu yethu engcwele leyethu enhle, lapho obaba abakudumisela khona, itshisiwe ngomlilo; lazo zonke izinto zethu ezithandekayo sezilunxiwa.
[the] house of Holiness our and splendor our where they praised you ancestors our it has become a burning of fire and all pleasant things our it has become a ruin.
12 Uzazithinta yini ngenxa yalezizinto, Nkosi? Uzathula yini, usihluphe wedlulise?
¿ On these [things] will you restrain yourself O Yahweh will you be silent? and will you afflict? us up to muchness.
