Isaya 12

1 Pazuva iro muchati, “Ndichakurumbidzai, imi Jehovha, kunyange makanga makanditsamwira, kutsamwa kwenyu kwakadzorwa uye makandinyaradza.

Thou shalt say, therefore, in that day, I will praise thee, O Yahweh! Though thou hast been angry with me, Thine anger turneth back. And thou dost comfort me.

2 Zvirokwazvo Mwari ndiye ruponeso rwangu; ndichavimba naye uye handingatyi. Jehovha, Jehovha ndiye simba rangu nerwiyo rwangu; ava ruponeso rwangu.”

Lo, GOD is my salvation! I will trust and not dread, —For, my might and melody, is Yah, Yahweh, And he hath become mine, by salvation.

3 Nomufaro muchachera mvura kubva mumatsime oruponeso.

Therefore shall ye draw water, with rejoicing, —out of the fountains of salvation.

4 Pazuva iro muchati, “Vongai Jehovha, danai kuzita rake; zivisai zvaakaita pakati pendudzi, uye muparidze kuti zita rake risimudzirwe.

And ye shall say in that day, Praise Yahweh. Call upon his Name, Make known among the peoples, his doings, —Bring to remembrance that, exalted, is his Name!

5 Imbirai Jehovha, nokuti akaita zvinhu zvinoshamisa; izvi ngazvizivikanwe pasi pose.

Praise in song Yahweh, For a splendid thing, hath he done, —Well known, is this in all the earth.

6 Pururudzai uye muimbe nomufaro, imi vanhu veZioni, nokuti Mutsvene waIsraeri mukuru pakati penyu.”

Make shrill thy voice and sing out thou inhabitress of Zion, —That great in the midst of thee, is the Holy One of Israel.
