U-Isaya 1
1 Umbono kaIsaya indodana kaAmozi, awubona ngoJuda leJerusalema, ensukwini zaboUziya, uJothamu, uAhazi, uHezekhiya, amakhosi akoJuda.
Esiawoe nye gbedeasi siwo Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi, xɔ tso Yehowa gbɔ le ŋutega me, tso nu siwo ava dzɔ ɖe Yuda kple Yerusalem dzi la ŋuti. Exɔ gbedeasi siawo le Yuda fiawo, Uzia, Yotam, Ahaz kple Hezekia ŋɔli.
2 Zwanini, mazulu, ubeke indlebe, mhlaba, ngoba iNkosi isikhulumile, yathi: Ngondlile ngakhulisa abantwana, kodwa bona bangivukele.
O! Dziƒo kple anyigba, miɖo to miase nya si gblɔm Yehowa le. Yehowa be: “Ɖevi siwo menyi hekplɔ wo kple beléle la dze aglã ɖe ŋunye.
3 Inkabi iyamazi umniniyo, lobabhemi umkolo womnikazi wakhe; kodwa uIsrayeli kazi, abantu bami kabaqedisisi.
Nyitsu nyaa eƒe aƒetɔ, eye tedzi nyaa eƒe nuɖuƒe, ke Israel menyam o, eye nye amewo mese nye nyawo gɔme o.”
4 Hawu, isizwe esonayo, abantu abasindwa yibubi, inzalo yabenzi bobubi, abantwana abonakalisayo! Bayitshiyile iNkosi, bamdelele oNgcwele kaIsrayeli, bahlehlele nyovane.
O! Dukɔ si wɔ nu vɔ̃, ame siwo dzi nu vɔ̃ do agba ɖo, nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔlawo ƒe dzidzimeviwo, vi siwo nye nu tovo wɔlawo, wogbe nu le Yehowa gbɔ, wodo ŋunyɔ Israel ƒe kɔkɔetɔ la, eye wotrɔ megbe dee.
5 Lizatshayelwani futhi? Belizaqhubeka livukela; ikhanda lonke liyagula, lenhliziyo yonke ibuthakathaka.
Nu ka ta miedi be woanɔ mia ƒoƒo dzi? Nu ka ta miegale aglãdzedze dzi? Miaƒe ta katã xɔ abi, eye miaƒe dzi katã hã xɔ abi.
6 Kusukela kungaphansi yonyawo kuze kufike ekhanda kakulandawo ephilileyo kukho, kodwa izilonda lemivimvinya lamanxeba ophayo; kakukhanywanga, kakubotshwanga, kakuthanjiswanga ngamafutha.
Tso miaƒe afɔƒome va se ɖe miaƒe dzodome la, teƒe nyui aɖeke meli o, negbe abiwo, dodrowo, abi mumu siwo womeklɔ haɖe o alo ɖo amii loo alo bla o la koe li.
7 Ilizwe lakini liyincithakalo, imizi yenu itshiswe ngomlilo, umhlaba wenu abezizwe bawudla phambi kwenu, njalo kulencithakalo, njengokugenqulwa ngabemzini.
Miaƒe anyigba zu gbegbe, wotɔ dzo miaƒe duwo le miawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋkume, du bubu me tɔwo va ha miaƒe agblemenukuwo, eye wogblẽ miaƒe anyigba abe ale si amedzrowo wɔna ene.
8 Indodakazi yeZiyoni isele-ke njengedumba esivinini, njengengalane ensimini yamakhomane, njengomuzi ovinjezelweyo.
Zion nyɔnuvi tsi akogo abe agbadɔ si le waingble me ene, abe agblexɔe le dzamatregble me ene, eye abe du si ŋu futɔwo ɖe to ɖo ene.
9 Uba iNkosi yamabandla ibingasitshiyelanga insali eyingcosana, besizakuba njengeSodoma, sifanane leGomora.
Ɖe menye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ ye kpɔtɔ ame ʋɛ aɖewo ɖi na mi o la, anye ne woatsrɔ̃ Yudatɔwo katã, abe ale si wotsrɔ̃ ame sia ame le Sodom kple Gomora ene.
10 Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, babusi beSodoma, libeke indlebe kumlayo kaNkulunkulu wethu, bantu beGomora.
Mise Yehowa ƒe nya, mi Sodom dziɖulawo, milé fɔ ɖe míaƒe Mawu la ƒe se la ŋu, mi Gomoratɔwo!
11 Buyini kimi ubunengi bemihlatshelo yenu? itsho iNkosi. Ngenelisiwe yiminikelo yokutshiswa yezinqama langamahwahwa okunonisiweyo; legazi lamajongosi lelamawundlu lelezimpongo kangithokozi ngalo.
“Miaƒe vɔsa gbogboawo ɖe, nu ka wonye nam?” Yehowae gblɔe. “Miaƒe numevɔsa siwo miewɔna kple agbowo kple lã damiwo ƒe ami la, wu tsɔtsɔ nam. Nyitsuwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo ƒe ʋu medoa dzidzɔ nam o.
12 Lapho lisizabonakala phambi kwami, ngubani obize lokhu esandleni senu, ukugxoba amaguma ami?
Ne miedo ɖe nye ŋkume la, ame kae bia esia tso mia si be, mianɔ afɔɖi ƒom nye xɔxɔnuwo?
13 Lingabe lisaletha umnikelo oyize; impepha iyisinengiso kimi; ukuthwasa kwenyanga, lesabatha, ukubizwa kwenhlangano, ngingekumele; kuyisiphambeko, ngitsho umhlangano onzulu.
Midzudzɔ vɔsa gbɔlo siawo tsɔtsɔ vɛ! Miaƒe dzudzɔʋeʋĩwo dodo medoa dzidzɔ nam o. Nyemate ŋu atsɔ miaƒe takpekpe vɔ̃ɖi siwo nye dzinu yeyewo, Dzudzɔgbewo kple gbeƒãɖeɖe takpegbewo o.
14 Umphefumulo wami uyakuzonda ukuthwasa kwezinyanga zenu lemikhosi yenu emisiweyo; kungumthwalo kimi, sengikhathele yikukuthwala.
Melé fu miaƒe dzinu yeye ŋkekenyuiwo kple ŋkekenyui bubuawo. Wozu agba nam, eye nu ti kɔ nam le wo tsɔtsɔ me.
15 Lalapho liselula izandla zenu ngizalifihlela amehlo ami; njalo nxa lisandisa umkhuleko kangiyikuzwa; izandla zenu zigcwele igazi.
Ne miele gbe dom ɖa, keke miaƒe abɔwo me la, maɣla nye ŋkume ɖe mi, eye ne mieli kɔ gbedodoɖa gleglegle hã la, nyemaɖo to mi o, elabena miaƒe asiwo ƒo ʋu.
16 Gezani, lizihlambulule; susani ububi bezenzo zenu phambi kwamehlo ami; yekelani ukwenza okubi;
“Mile tsi ne mia ŋuti nakɔ. Miɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo ɖa le nye ŋkume! Midzudzɔ vɔ̃wɔwɔ,
17 fundani ukwenza okuhle; dingani isahlulelo; sizani ocindezelweyo; yehlulelani intandane; melani umfelokazi.
ne miasrɔ̃ nyuiwɔwɔ! Midi nuteƒewɔwɔ, eye mide dzi ƒo na ame siwo wote ɖe anyi. Miʋli tsyɔ̃eviwo ta, eye miaxɔ nya ɖe ahosiwo nu.
18 Wozani khathesi, siqondisane, itsho iNkosi; loba izono zenu zinjengokubomvu gebhu, zizakuba mhlophe njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyo; loba zibomvu njengokubomvu kakhulu, zizakuba njengoboya bezimvu.
“Miva, mina míade ŋugble ɖekae,” Yehowa gblɔe. “Togbɔ be miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo biã abe nyagãdzĩ ene hã la, woafu abe ɖetifu ene. Ne wobiã abe ʋu ene hã la, woafu abe alẽfu ɣi ene.
19 Uba livuma lilalela, lizakudla okuhle kwelizwe;
Ne mielɔ̃, eye mieɖo to la, miaɖu anyigba la ƒe nu nyuitɔwo.
20 kodwa uba lisala libe lenkani, lizadliwa yinkemba; ngoba umlomo weNkosi ukhulumile.
Ke ne miesẽ to, dze aglã la, yi atsrɔ̃ mi.” Elabena Yehowa ƒe nue gblɔe.
21 Yeka, umuzi othembekileyo usube liwule! Wawugcwele isahlulelo, ukulunga kwakuhlezi kuwo, kodwa khathesi ababulali.
Tsã la, wokpɔa nuteƒewɔwɔ kple dzɔdzɔenyenye le eme, ezu hlɔ̃dolawo ƒe du.
22 Isiliva sakho sesibe ngamanyele; iwayini lakho laxubana lamanzi.
Tsã la, klosalo si le keklẽm la wònye, ke azɔ la, elé ɣebia eye wòzu abe wain nyuitɔ si wotɔ tsii ene.
23 Iziphathamandla zakho zingabahlamuki labangane bamasela; ngulowo lalowo uthanda isipho, azingele izivalamlomo; kazehluleli izintandane, lendaba yomfelokazi kayifiki kuzo.
Wò dumegãwo zu aglãdzelawo kple fiafiwo xɔlɔ̃, wolɔ̃a zãnuxɔxɔ, eye wotia nunanawo yome. Womeʋlia tsyɔ̃eviwo ta o, eye ahosiwo ƒe nya medzɔna le woƒe ʋɔnu o.
24 Ngakho itsho iNkosi, iNkosi yamabandla, oLamandla wakoIsrayeli: E, ngizaziduduza ngezitha zami, ngiziphindisele kwabamelana lami.
Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Ŋusẽtɔ la gblɔe nye esi. “O! Makpɔ gbɔɖeme tso nye ketɔwo ƒe asi me, eye mabia hlɔ̃ nye futɔwo.
25 Ngizabuyisela isandla sami phezu kwakho, ngicwengisise amanyele akho, ngisuse yonke ingcekeza yokucwengwa kwakho.
Matrɔ atsi tsitre ɖe mia ŋu, atsra mia me, eye maɖe nu kuklui siwo nye ɖiƒoƒo la ɖa le mia me.
26 Ngizabuyisela abahluleli bakho njengekuqaleni, labeluleki bakho njengakuqala; emva kwalokho ubizwe ngokuthi ngumuzi wokulunga, umuzi othembekileyo.
Emegbe la, maɖo ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo na mi abe tsã ene, eye mana aɖaŋudelawo mi abe ale si wònɔ le gɔmedzedzea me ene. Emegbe la, woayɔ mi be Dzɔdzɔenyenye kple Nuteƒewɔwɔ ƒe Du.”
27 IZiyoni izahlengwa ngesahlulelo, labaphendukayo bayo ngokulunga.
Woaɖe Zion kple afia nyui tsotso, eye woaɖe eƒe dzimetrɔlawo kple dzɔdzɔenyenye.
28 Lokwephulwa kwabaphambuki lokwezoni kuzakuba kanyekanye, labadela iNkosi baqedwe.
Ke woagbã aglãdzelawo kple nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo siaa gudugudu, eye woatsrɔ̃ ame siwo gbe nu le Yehowa gbɔ.
29 Ngoba bazakuba lenhloni ngezihlahla zama-okhi elaliziloyisa, liyangeke ngezivande elizikhethileyo.
“Ŋu akpe mi le logoti siwo ŋu miekpɔa dzidzɔ le la ŋu; woade ŋukpe mo na mi le abɔ siwo mielɔ̃na la ta.
30 Ngoba lizakuba njengesihlahla se-okhi omahlamvu aso ayabuna, lanjengesivande esingelamanzi.
Miazu abe logoti aɖe si ƒe aŋgbawo yrɔ kple abɔ si me tsi aɖeke mele o la ene.
31 Njalo olamandla uzakuba lifilakisi eliyizibi, lomenzi walo abe yinhlansi; njalo kuzakutsha kokubili kanyekanye, kungabi khona ocitshayo.
Ame sesẽ la azu gbe ƒuƒu, eƒe dɔwɔwɔ azu dzoxi, wo ame eve la woabi, eye ame aɖeke mate ŋu atsii o.”
