Isaya 26
1 Pazuva iro rwiyo urwu ruchaimbwa munyika yaJudha: Tine guta rakasimba; Mwari anoita kuti ruponeso ruve masvingo nenhare dzaro.
Tsiku limenelo anthu a mʼdziko la Yuda adzayimba nyimbo iyi. Tili ndi mzinda wolimba. Mulungu amawuteteza ndi zipupa ndi malinga.
2 Zarurai masuo kuti rudzi rwakarurama rupinde, rudzi runochengeta kutenda.
Tsekulani zipata za mzinda kuti mtundu wolungama ndi wokhulupirika ulowemo.
3 Muchachengeta murugare rwakakwana munhu ane mufungo wakasimba, nokuti anovimba nemi.
Inu mudzamupatsa munthu wa mtima wokhazikika mtendere weniweni.
4 Vimba naJehovha nokusingaperi, nokuti Jehovha, iye Jehovha ndiye Dombo rokusingaperi.
Mudalireni Yehova mpaka muyaya, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu ndiye Thanthwe losatha.
5 Anoderedza avo vagere pakakwirira, anodzikisa pasi guta rapamusoro; anorideredza kusvikira pavhu uye anorikanda muguruva.
Iye amatsitsa anthu amene amadziyika pamwamba, iye amagwetsa pansi mzinda wodzitukumula, amagumula makoma ake ndi kuwagwetsa pansi pa fumbi penipeni.
6 Tsoka dzicharitsikirira pasi, tsoka dzavakamanikidzwa, idzo tsoka dzavarombo.
Mapazi a anthu akuwupondereza, mapazi a anthu oponderezedwa, mapazi anthu osauka.
7 Nzira yavakarurama yakati chechetere; imi Akarurama, munoita kuti nzira yavakarurama iti chechetere.
Njira ya munthu wolungama ndi yosalaza, Inu Wolungamayo, mumasalaza njira ya wolungama.
8 Hongu, Jehovha tichifamba munzira yomurayiro wenyu, tinokumirirai; zita renyu nemukurumbira wenyu ndizvo chishuwo chemwoyo yedu.
Inde Yehova, timayenda mʼnjira zanu zolungama, ife timayembekezera Inu; mitima yathu imakhumba kukumbukira ndi kulemekeza dzina lanu.
9 Mwoyo wangu unokushuvai pausiku; mangwanani, mweya wangu unokupangai. Kutonga kwenyu pakunouya panyika, vanhu vanogara panyika vanodzidza zvokururama.
Moyo wanga umalakalaka Inu usiku wonse; nthawi yammawa ndimafunafuna Inu. Pamene muweruza dziko lapansi anthu amaphunzira kuchita chilungamo.
10 Kunyange nyasha dzichiratidzwa kuna vakaipa, ivo havadzidzi kururama; kunyange munyika yokururama, vanongoramba vachiita zvakaipa, uye havana hanya noukuru hwaJehovha.
Ngakhale mukomere mtima anthu oyipa, saphunzira chilungamo. Amachita zoyipa mʼdziko la chilungamo, ndipo sazindikira ululu wa Yehova.
11 Haiwa Jehovha, ruoko rwenyu rwakasimudzirwa kumusoro, asi havaruoni. Ngavaone kushingaira kwenyu pamusoro pavanhu venyu vagonyadziswa; moto wakachengeterwa vavengi venyu ngauvaparadze.
Inu Yehova, mwatukula dzanja lanu kuti muwalange, koma iwo sakuliona dzanjalo. Aloleni anthu aone ndi kuchita manyazi poona mmene mukondera anthu anu; ndipo moto umene mwasonkhera adani anu uwapsereze.
12 Jehovha, imi munotigadzirira rugare; zvose zvatakakwanisa ndimi makatiitira.
Yehova, mumatipatsa mtendere; ndipo zonse zimene ife tinazichita munatichitira ndinu.
13 Haiwa Jehovha Mwari wedu, mamwe madzishe kunze kwenyu akatitonga, asi zita renyu ndiro ratinokudza chete.
Inu Yehova Mulungu wathu, ngakhale takhala tikulamulidwa ndi ena mʼmalo mwanu, koma ife timalemekeza dzina lanu lokha.
14 Ivo vakafa zvino, havachararamizve; mweya yavakafa haimuki. Makavaranga mukavaparadza; makabvisa chirangaridzo chavo.
Iwo tsopano sadzadzukanso; mizimu yawo sidzabwera kudzativutitsa pakuti mwawalanga ndipo mwawawononga; palibenso amene amawakumbukira.
15 Makakurisa rudzi, imi Jehovha; makakurisa rudzi. Makazviwanira mukurumbira; mukakurisa miganhu yose yenyika.
Inu Yehova, mwaukulitsa mtundu wathu; mwauchulukitsa ndithu ndipo mwalandirapo ulemu; mwaukuza mbali zonse za dziko.
16 Jehovha, vakauya kwamuri mumatambudziko avo; pamakavarova, havana kugona kuzevezera munyengetero.
Yehova, anthu anu anabwera kwa Inu pamene anali mʼmasautso; pamene munawalanga, iwo anapemphera kwa Inu.
17 Sezvinoita mukadzi ane mimba oda kusununguka, anomonyoroka mukurwadziwa kwake, agochema kwazvo, ndizvo zvatakanga takaita pamberi penyu, imi Jehovha.
Monga mayi woyembekezera pamene nthawi yake yobereka yayandikira amamva kupweteka ndipo amalira ndi ululu, ifenso tinali chimodzimodzi pamaso panu, Inu Yehova.
18 Takanga tine mimba, tichimonyoroka mukurwadziwa, asi takabereka mhepo. Hatina kuvigira nyika ruponeso; hatina chatakaberekera vanhu venyika.
Ife chimodzimodzi tinamva ululu, ngati mayi pa nthawi yobala mwana, koma sitinapindulepo kanthu, kapena kupulumutsa dziko lapansi; sitinabadwitse anthu atsopano pa dziko pano.
19 Asi vakafa venyu vachararama; miviri yavo ichamuka. Imi mugere muguruva, mukai mupembere. Dova renyu rakaita sedova ramangwanani; nyika ichabudisa vakafa vayo.
Koma anthu anu amene anafa adzakhalanso ndi moyo; matupi awo adzadzuka. Iwo amene ali ku fumbi tsopano adzadzuka ndi kuyimba mosangalala. Monga mame amafewetsa pansi kutsitsimutsa zomera, momwenso Yehova adzaukitsa anthu amene anafa kale.
20 Chiendai, vanhu vangu, pindai mumakamuri enyu, mugopfiga mikova shure kwenyu; muvande kwechinguva kusvikira kutsamwa kwake kwapfuura.
Abale anga, pitani mukalowe mʼnyumba zanu ndipo mukadzitsekere; mukabisale kwa kanthawi kochepa mpaka ukali wake utatha.
21 Tarirai, Jehovha ari kubuda muugaro hwake, kuti arange vanhu venyika nokuda kwezvivi zvavo. Nyika ichafukura ropa rakateurwa pamusoro payo; haichazovanzizve vakaurayiwa vayo.
Taonani, Yehova akubwera kuchokera kumene amakhala; akubwera kudzalanga anthu a dziko lapansi chifukwa cha machimo awo. Dziko lapansi lidzawulula magazi amene anakhetsedwa pa dzikolo; dziko lapansi silidzabisanso mitembo ya anthu ophedwa.
