Isaya 14
1 Jehovha achanzwira Jakobho tsitsi; achasarudza Israeri zvakare uye achavagarisa munyika yavo. Vatorwa vachabatana navo vachanamatirana neimba yaJakobho.
Yehova adzachitira chifundo Yakobo; adzasankhanso Israeli ndi kuwalola kuti akhalenso mʼdziko lawo. Alendo adzabwera kudzakhala nawo ndi kudziphatika okha kukhala ngati a mʼnyumba ya Yakobo.
2 Ndudzi dzichavatora dzigovadzosera kunzvimbo yavo chaiyo. Uye imba yaIsraeri ichatora ndudzi kuti vave varandarume navarandakadzi munyika yaJehovha. Vachaita nhapwa vaya vaimbova vatapi vavo, uye vachabata ushe pamusoro pavaya vaimbova vamanikidzi vavo.
Anthu a mitundu ina adzaperekeza a Israeli ku dziko lawo. Tsono Aisraeli adzasandutsa anthu a mitundu ina aja kukhala antchito awo aamuna ndi aakazi mʼdziko la Yehova. Ndiye kuti Aisraeli adzasandutsa akapolo anthu amene kale anali ambuye awo. Iwo adzasandutsa akapolo anthu amene kale ankawalamulira ndi kuwazunza.
3 Pazuva ramuchapiwa rusununguko naJehovha kubva pakutambudzika, nokusagadzikana, nokubatwa noutsinye,
Yehova akadzakupumitsani ku zowawa ndi mavuto, ndiponso kuntchito yakalavulagaga imene ankakugwiritsani,
4 uchasveeredza mambo weBhabhironi uchiti: Haiwa, mumanikidzi apera sei! Haiwa, hasha dzake dzapera sei!
mudzayankhula monyogodola mfumu ya Babuloni kuti, Wopsinja uja watha! Ukali wake uja watha!
5 Jehovha akavhuna tsvimbo yavakaipa netsvimbo yamadzimambo,
Yehova wathyola chikwapu cha anthu oyipa, Iye waphwanya ndodo ya olamulira.
6 yaakarova nayo marudzi mukutsamwa nokurova kusingaperi, uye akakunda ndudzi nehasha nokurwisa kusingaperi.
Mfumu ya ku Babuloni inkakantha mitundu ya anthu mwaukali powamenya kosalekeza, Iyo inkagonjetsa anthu a mitundu ina mwaukali ndikuwazunza kosalekeza.
7 Nyika dzose dzazorora uye dzava norugare; votanga kufara nokuimba.
Koma tsopano mayiko onse ali pa mpumulo ndi pa mtendere; ndipo akuyimba mokondwa.
8 Kunyange nemiti yemisipuresi nemisidhari yokuRebhanoni inofara pamusoro pako ichiti, “Zvino zvawaparadzwa, hakuna varume vanotsvaka huni vachauya kuzotitema.”
Ngakhale mitengo ya payini ndi mikungudza ya ku Lebanoni ikuyimba za iwe mokondwa ndipo ikuti, “Chigwetsedwere chako pansi, palibe wina anabwera kudzatigwetsa.”
9 Pasi, iro sheori razungunuka kuti rinangane newe pakuuya kwako; riri kumutsa mweya yavakaenda kuti izokukwazisai, vose vakaenda vari vatungamiri munyika; rinoita kuti vasimuke pazvigaro zvavo zvoushe, vose vakanga vari madzimambo endudzi. (Sheol h7585)
Ku manda kwatekeseka kuti akulandire ukamabwera; mizimu ya anthu akufa, aja amene anali atsogoleri a dziko lapansi, yadzutsidwa. Onse amene anali mafumu a mitundu ya anthu ayimiritsidwa pa mipando yawo. (Sheol h7585)
10 Vose vachapindura, vachati kwauri, “Newewo hauchisina simba, sesu; wangofanana nesu.”
Onse adzayankha; adzanena kwa iwe kuti, “Iwenso watheratu mphamvu ngati ife; Iwe wafanana ndi ife.”
11 Kuzvikudza kwako kwose kwaderedzwa kusvika muguva, pamwe chete nokurira kworudimbwa rwako; honye dzawarirwa pasi pako uye makonye anokufukidza. (Sheol h7585)
Ulemerero wako wonse walowa mʼmanda, pamodzi ndi nyimbo za azeze ako; mphutsi zayalana pogona pako ndipo chofunda chako ndi nyongolotsi. (Sheol h7585)
12 Haiwa, wawa seiko, uchibva kudenga, iwe nyamasase yamangwanani, mwanakomana wamambakwedza! Wakakandwa panyika, iyewe wakambowisira ndudzi pasi!
Wagwa pansi bwanji kuchoka kumwamba, iwe nthanda, mwana wa mʼbandakucha! Wagwetsedwa pansi pa dziko lapansi, Iwe amene unagonjetsapo mitundu ya anthu!
13 Wakati mumwoyo mako, “Ndichakwira kudenga; ndichasimudzira chigaro changu choushe pamusoro penyeredzi dzaMwari; ndichagara pachigaro changu choushe pagomo reungano, pamusoro pegomo dzvene.
Mu mtima mwako unkanena kuti, “Ndidzakwera mpaka kumwamba; ndidzakhazika mpando wanga waufumu pamwamba pa nyenyezi za Mulungu; ndidzakhala pa mpando waufumu pa phiri losonkhanirako, pamwamba penipeni pa phiri la kumpoto.
14 Ndichakwira pamusoro-soro pamakore; ndichazviita seWokumusoro-soro.”
Ndidzakwera pamwamba pa mitambo; ndidzafanana ndi Wammwambamwamba.”
Koma watsitsidwa mʼmanda pansi penipeni pa dzenje. (Sheol h7585)
16 Vose vanokuona vanokunanʼanidza, vachafungisisa zvamagumo ako vachiti, “Ndiye here murume uya akazungunutsa nyika, akadederesa ushe,
Anthu akufa adzakupenyetsetsa nadzamalingalira za iwe nʼkumati, “Kodi uyu ndi munthu uja anagwedeza dziko lapansi ndi kunjenjemeretsa maufumu,
17 murume akaita kuti nyika ive gwenga, akaparadza maguta ayo, akasatendera vasungwa vake kudzokera kumusha?”
munthu amene anasandutsa dziko lonse chipululu, amene anagwetsa mizinda yake ndipo sankalola kuti anthu ogwidwa abwerere kwawo?”
18 Madzimambo ose endudzi ave mukukudzwa, mumwe nomumwe muguva rake.
Mafumu onse a mitundu ya anthu akugona mwaulemu aliyense mʼmanda akeake.
19 Asi iwe warasirwa kunze kweguva rako, kufanana nedavi rakaraswa; wakafukidzwa navakaurayiwa, naavo vakabayiwa nomunondo, avo vakadzika kumatombo egomba. Kufanana nechitunha chinotsikwa-tsikwa netsoka,
Koma iwe watayidwa kunja kwa manda ako, ngati nthambi yowola ndi yonyansa. Mtembo wako waphimbidwa ndi anthu ophedwa; amene anabayidwa ndi lupanga, anatsikira mʼdzenje lamiyala ngati mtembo woponderezedwa.
20 hauzobatani navo pakuvigwa kwako, nokuti wakaparadza nyika yako ukauraya vanhu vako. Vana vowakaipa havazotaurwi nezvavozve.
Sudzayikidwa nawo mʼmanda mwaulemu, chifukwa unawononga dziko lako ndi kupha anthu ako. Zidzukulu za anthu oyipa sizidzakumbukika nʼpangʼono pomwe.
21 Gadzirirai nzvimbo yokuurayira vanakomana vake nokuda kwezvivi zvamadzitateguru avo; havazosimuki kuti vagare nhaka yenyika vagozadza nyika namaguta avo
Konzani malo woti muphere ana ake aamuna chifukwa cha machimo a makolo awo; kuti angadzuke ndi kulanda dziko lapansi ndi kulidzaza dziko lonselo ndi mizinda yawo.
22 “Ndichavamukira ini,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Ndichabvisa zita rake navakasara vake kubva kuBhabhironi, vana vake navana vavana vake,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Ine ndidzathira nkhondo mzinda wa Babuloni. Ndidzachotseratu mu Babuloni dzina lake ndi onse otsaliramo. Ndiye kuti sipadzakhala ana kapena zidzukulu,” akutero Yehova.
23 “Ndichaishandura kuti ive nzvimbo yamazizi nenyika yamachawi; ndicharitsvaira nomutsvairo wokuparadza,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
“Ndidzawusandutsa mzindawo malo okhalamo anungu ndiponso dambo lamatope; ndidzawusesa ndi tsache lowononga,” akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
24 Jehovha Wamasimba Ose akapika achiti: “Zvirokwazo sezvandakafunga ndizvo zvichaitika, uye sezvandakarangarira ndizvo zvichaitika.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse walumbira kuti, “Ndithudi, monga ndaganizira ndidzachitadi choncho, ndipo monga momwe ndatsimikizira zidzakhala momwemo ndithu.
25 Ndichapwanya muAsiria munyika yangu; ndichamutsikirira pasi pamusoro pegomo rangu. Joko rake richabviswa kubva pavanhu vangu, nomutoro wake wokubva pamabvudzi avo.”
Ndidzawawononga Asiriya mʼdziko langa; ndidzawapondereza ndi mapazi pa mapiri anga; ndidzachotsa goli lawo pa anthu anga, ndipo ndidzachotsa katundu wawo pa mapewa awo.”
26 Iyi ndiyo pfungwa yakarongerwa nyika yose; urwu ndirwo ruoko rwakatambanudzirwa pamusoro pamarudzi ose.
Izi ndizo ndakonza kuti zichitike pa dziko lonse lapansi, ndatambasula dzanja pa anthu a mitundu yonse.
27 Nokuti Jehovha Wamasimba Ose akazvironga zvino ndianiko angamukonesa? Ruoko rwake rwakatambanudzwa ndianiko angarudzora?
Pakuti Yehova Wamphamvuzonse watsimikiza, ndipo ndani angamuletse? Dzanja lake latambasulidwa ndipo ndani angalibweze?
28 Shoko iri rakauya mugore rakafa Mambo Ahazi richiti:
Uthenga uwu unabwera chaka chimene mfumu Ahazi anamwalira:
29 Musafara imi mose vaFiristia, muchiti shamhu yakakurovai imi, yavhunika; nokuti kubva pamudzi wenyoka iyo pachabuda mvumbi, chibereko chayo chichava nyoka ino uturu hunobaya.
Musakondwere inu Afilisti nonse kuti Asiriya amene anali ngati ndodo yokukanthani anathedwa; chifukwa kuchokera ku njoka yomweyi (mfumu ya Aasiriya) mudzatuluka mphiri, ndipo chipatso chake chidzakhala njoka yaliwiro ndiponso yaululu.
30 Murombo wavarombo achawana mafuro, uye vanoshayiwa vacharara pasi murugare. Asi ndichaparadza mudzi wako nenzara; ichauraya vakasara vako.
Osaukitsitsa adzapeza chakudya ndipo amphawi adzakhala mwamtendere. Koma anthu ako ndidzawawononga ndi njala, ndipo njalayo idzapha ngakhale opulumuka ako.
31 Ungudza iwe suo! Chema, iwe guta! Nyungudukai, imi vaFiristia mose! Gore routsi riri kuuya richibva kumusoro, uye hapana achatiza pasimba raro.
Lirani kwambiri, anthu a pa chipata! Fuwulani kwambiri, anthu a mu mzinda! Njenjemerani ndi mantha, inu Afilisti nonse! Mtambo wa utsi ukuchokera kumpoto, ndipo palibe wamantha pakati pa ankhondo ake.
32 Ko, imhinduroi ichapiwa kunhume dzorudzi urwo? “Jehovha akasimbisa Zioni, uye mariri vanhu vake vanotambudzika vachawana pokuvanda.”
Kodi tidzawayankha chiyani amithenga a ku Filisitiya? “Yehova wakhazikitsa Ziyoni, ndipo mu mzinda wakewu, anthu ozunzika apeza populumukira.”
