< Isaya 11 >
1 Bukira richabva kudzinde raJese; Davi rinobva pamidzi yake richabereka muchero.
And there shall come forth a rod out of the root of Jesse, and a blossom shall come up from [his] root:
2 Mweya waJehovha uchagara pamusoro pake, mweya wouchenjeri newokunzwisisa, mweya wokurayira nowesimba, mweya wokuziva newokutya Jehovha,
and the Spirit of God shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and godliness shall fill him;
3 uye achafarira kutya Jehovha. Haazotongi nezvaanoona nameso ake, kana kutonga nezvaanonzwa nenzeve dzake,
the spirit of the fear of God. He shall not judge according to appearance, nor reprove according to report:
4 asi nokururama achatongera varombo, nokururamisira achatongera vanyoro vapanyika. Acharova nyika neshamhu yomuromo wake; nokufema kwemiromo yake achauraya vakaipa.
but he shall judge the cause of the lowly, and shall reprove the lowly of the earth: and he shall strike the earth with the word of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he destroy the ungodly one.
5 Kururuma ndiro richava bhanhire rake uye kutendeka bhanhire romuchiuno chake.
And he shall have his loins girded with righteousness, and his sides clothed with truth.
6 Bere richagara negwayana, ingwe ichavata pasi nembudzi, mhuru neshumba nezvakakodzwa zvichafura pamwe chete; uye mwana mudiki achazvitungamirira.
And the wolf shall feed with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the young calf and bull and lion shall feed together; and a little child shall lead them.
7 Mhou ichafura nebere, vana vazvo vachavata pasi pamwe chete, uye shumba ichadya uswa senzombe.
And the ox and bear shall feed together; and their young shall be together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
8 Mwana mucheche achatambira pedyo nomwena wemhakure, uye mwana mudiki achaisa ruoko rwake mumwena wenyoka.
And an infant shall put his hand on the holes of asps, and on the nest of young asps.
9 Hazvingazokuvadzi kana kuparadza pagomo rangu rose dzvene, nokuti nyika ichazara nokuziva Jehovha semvura zhinji inofukidza gungwa.
And they shall not hurt, nor shall they at all be able to destroy any one on my holy mountain: for the whole [world] is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as much water covers the seas.
10 Pazuva iro Mudzi waJese uchamira somureza wamarudzi; ndudzi dzichamhanyira kwaari, uye nzvimbo yake yokuzorora ichabwinya.
And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, and his rest shall be glorious.
11 Pazuva iro Jehovha achatambanudza ruoko rwake kechipiri kuti adzorezve vakasara ivo vanhu vake vakasiyiwa kubva kuAsiria, kubva zasi kweIjipiti, nokubva kumusoro kweIjipiti nokubva kuEtiopia, nokubva kuEramu, nokubva kuBhabhironi, nokuHamati uye nokubva kuzviwi zvegungwa.
And it shall be in that day, [that] the Lord shall again show his hand, to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, which shall be left by the Assyrians, and [that] from Egypt, and from the country of Babylon, and from Ethiopia, and from the Elamites, and from the rising of the sun, and out of Arabia.
12 Achasimudzira marudzi mureza uye achaunganidza vakadzingwa vaIsraeri; achaunganidza vakaparadzirwa vavanhu veJudha, kubva kumativi mana enyika.
And he shall lift up a standard for the nations, and he shall gather the lost ones of Israel, and he shall gather the dispersed of Juda from the four corners of the earth.
13 Godo raEfuremu richapera uye vavengi vavaJudha vachagurwa; Efuremu haachazovi negodo naJudha, naJudha haangaitire Efuremu hasha.
And the envy of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the enemies of Juda shall perish: Ephraim shall not envy Juda, and Juda shall not afflict Ephraim.
14 Asi vachawira pamusoro pamateru eFiristia kumavirazuva; pamwe chete vachapamba vanhu vokumabvazuva. Vachatora Edomu neMoabhu, uye vaAmoni vachava varanda vavo.
And they shall fly in the ships of the Philistines: they shall at the same time spoil the sea, and them [that come] from the east, and Idumea: and they shall lay their hands on Moab first; but the children of Ammon shall first obey [them.]
15 Jehovha achaomesa chose chikamu chegungwa reIjipiti; nemhepo inopisa achatsvaira noruoko rwake pamusoro peRwizi rweYufuratesi. Acharukamura-kamura agoruita hova nomwe, kuitira kuti vanhu vagone kuyambuka vachienda mhiri vakapfeka shangu.
And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and he shall lay his hand on the river with a strong wind, and he shall strike the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod.
16 Pachava nomugwagwa mukuru wavanhu vake vakasara, vakasiyiwa kubva kuAsiria, sezvazvakanga zviri kuvaIsraeri pavakabva kuIjipiti.
And there shall be a passage for my people that is left in Egypt: and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt.
