Isaya 18
1 Ine nhamo nyika yokutinhira kwamapapiro inotevedza nzizi dzeEtiopia,
Tsoka kwa anthu a ku Kusi. Kumeneko kumamveka mkokomo wa mapiko a dzombe.
2 inotuma nhume nenzira yomugungwa, muzvikepe zvenhokwe pamusoro pemvura. Endai, imi nhume dzinokurumidza, kuvanhu vakareba uye vane ganda rinotsvedzerera, kuvanhu vanotyiwa kure napedyo, rudzi rune hasha nomutauro usinganzwisisiki, rune nyika yakakamurwa nenzizi.
Dziko limenelo limatumiza akazembe pa mtsinje wa Nailo, mʼmabwato amabango amene amayandama pa madzi, ndikunena kuti, “Pitani, inu amithenga aliwiro, kwa mtundu wa anthu ataliatali a khungu losalala, ndi woopedwa ndi anthu. Akazembe anatumidwa ku dziko la anthu amphamvu ndi logonjetsa anthu ena. Dziko lawo ndi logawikanagawikana ndi mitsinje.”
3 Imi mose muri pasi pose, imi munogara panyika, kana mureza wasimudzwa pamusoro pamakomo, muchauona, uye kana hwamanda yarira, muchainzwa.
Inu nonse anthu a pa dziko lonse, inu amene mumakhala pa dziko lapansi, pamene mbendera yakwezedwa pa mapiri yangʼanani, ndipo pamene lipenga lilira mumvere.
4 Zvanzi naJehovha kwandiri: “Ndicharamba ndinyerere uye ndichatarira ndiri paugaro hwangu, samanyirinyiri omushana unopisa, segore redova mukupisa kwokukohwa.”
Pakuti Yehova akunena kwa ine kuti, “Ndili chikhalire ku malo anga kuno, ndidzakhala chete, ndi kumangoyangʼana, monga momwe dzuwa limawalira nthawi yotentha, monganso momwe mame amagwera usiku pa nthawi yotentha yokolola.”
5 Nokuti, kukohwa kusati kwasvika, kana kutungira kwamaruva kwaguma, uye ruva rova muzambiringa woibva, achagura mabukira namapanga okurangura, achatemera pasi uye agorasira kure matavi akatandavara.
Pakuti, anthu asanayambe kukolola, maluwa atayoyoka ndiponso mphesa zitayamba kupsa, Iye adzadula mphukira ndi mipeni yosadzira, ndipo adzadula ndi kuchotsa nthambi zotambalala.
6 Zvose zvichasiyirwa magora omugomo nokuzvikara zvesango; shiri dzichazvidya chirimo chose, uye zvikara zvesango zvichazvidya muchando chose.
Mitembo ya anthu ankhondo adzasiyira mbalame zamʼmapiri zodya nyama ndiponso zirombo zakuthengo; mbalame zidzadya mitemboyo nthawi yonse ya chilimwe, ndipo zirombo zidzayidya pa nthawi yonse yachisanu.
7 Panguva iyoyo, zvipo zvichavigirwa Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, zvichibva kuvanhu vakareba vane ganda rinotsvedzerera, kubva kuvanhu vanotyiwa kwose kwose, rudzi rune hasha nomutauro usinganzwisisiki, rudzi rune nyika yakakamurwa nenzizi, zvipo zvichauyiswa kuZioni, nzvimbo yeZita raJehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Pa nthawi imeneyo anthu adzabwera ndi mphatso kwa Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, zochokera kwa anthu ataliatali ndi osalala, kuchokera kwa mtundu wa anthu woopedwa ndi anthu apafupi ndi akutali omwe, mtundu wa anthu amphamvu ndi a chiyankhulo chachilendo, anthu amene dziko lawo ndi logawikanagawikana ndi mitsinje. Adzabwera nazo mphatso ku Phiri la Ziyoni, ku malo a Dzina la Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
