Isaya 27
1 Pazuva iro, Jehovha acharanga nomunondo wake, iwo munondo wake mukuru une simba uye unotyisa, Revhiatani nyoka inokurumidza, Revhiatani nyoka inogonyana; achauraya chikara chomugungwa.
In that day God shall bring [his] holy and great and strong sword upon the dragon, even the serpent that flees, upon the dragon, the crooked serpent: he shall destroy the dragon.
2 Pazuva iro, “Imbai nezvomuzambiringa unobereka:
In that day [there shall be] a fair vineyard, [and] a desire to commence [a song] concerning it.
3 Ini Jehovha ndini ndinouchengeta; ndinoramba ndichiudiridzira. Ndinourinda masikati nousiku kuitira kuti parege kuva neanoukanganisa.
I am a strong city, a city in a siege: in vain shall I water it; for it shall be taken by night, and by day the wall shall fall.
4 Handina kutsamwa. Dai paingova nerukato neminzwa zvinorwa neni! Ndaienda kundorwa nazvo; ndaizvipisa zvose nomoto.
There is no woman that has not taken hold of it; who will set me to watch stubble in the field? because of this enemy I have set her aside; therefore on this account the Lord has done all that he appointed.
5 Kana kuti ngazviuye zvizovanda kwandiri; ngazviyanane neni, hongu, ngazviyanane neni.”
I am burnt up; they that dwell in her shall cry, Let us make peace with him, let us make peace,
6 Mumazuva anouya, Jakobho achadzika midzi, Israeri achabukira uye achatunga maruva, agozadza nyika yose nomuchero,
they that are coming are the children of Jacob. Israel shall bud and blossom, and the world shall be filled with his fruit.
7 Ko, Jehovha akamurova here sezvaanorova avo vakamurova? Akaurayiwa here sokuurayiwa kwakaitwa avo vakamuuraya?
Shall he himself be thus struck, even as he struck? and as he killed, shall he be thus slain?
8 Muhondo makarwa naye mukamudzinga, nokurwisa kwake kunotyisa akamudzinga, sezvinoitika pazuva rinovhuvhuta mhepo yokumabvazuva.
Fighting and reproaching he will dismiss them; did you not meditate with a harsh spirit, to kill them with a wrathful spirit?
9 Zvino nenzira iyi, mhosva yaJakobho ichadzikinurwa, uye izvi zvichava chibereko chakazara chokubviswa kwechivi chake: Paanoita kuti aritari dzose dzifanane namabwe omunyaka akaputswa-putswa, hapana matanda aAshera kana aritari dzezvinonhuhwira zvichasiyiwa zvakamira.
Therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be taken away; and this is his blessing, when I shall have taken away his sin; when they shall have broken to pieces all the stones of the altars as fine dust, and their trees shall not remain, and their idols shall be cut off, as a thicket afar off.
10 Guta rakakomberedzwa norusvingo rasiyiwa rava dongo, hwava ugaro hwakasiyiwa, kufanana nerenje; mhuru dzofura ikoko, uye ikoko ndiko kwadzinovata; dzinosiya matavi asisina chinhu.
The flock that lived [there] shall be left, as a deserted flock; and [the ground] shall be for a long time for pasture, and there shall flocks lie down to rest.
11 Panooma matavi acho, anovhuniwa, uye vakadzi vanouya vovesa moto nawo. Nokuti vanhu ava havana njere; nokudaro Muiti wavo haachina tsitsi pamusoro pavo, uye Musiki wavo haangavaitiri nyasha.
And after a time there shall be in it no green thing because of [the grass] being parched. Come hither, you women that come from a sight; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore he that made them shall have no pity upon them, and he that formed them shall have no mercy [upon them].
12 Pazuva iro Jehovha achapura kubva panoyerera Yufuratesi kusvikira paRukova rweIjipiti, uye imi vaIsraeri, muchaunganidzwa muchiita mumwe mumwe.
And it shall come to pass in that day [that] God shall fence [men] off from the channel of the river as far as Rhinocorura; but do you gather one by one the children of Israel.
13 Uye pazuva iro hwamanda huru icharira. Vakanga vofira muAsiria uye navaya vakanga vatizira kuIjipiti vachauya kuzonamata Jehovha pamusoro pegomo dzvene riri muJerusarema.
And it shall come to pass in that day [that] they shall blow the great trumpet, and the lost ones in the land of the Assyrians shall come, and the lost ones in Egypt, and shall worship the Lord on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
