Isaya 42
1 “Tarirai muranda wangu, wandinotsigira, musanangurwa wangu wandinofarira; Ndichaisa Mweya wangu pamusoro pake, uye achavigira ndudzi kururamisirwa.
“Nayu mtumiki wanga, amene ndimamuchirikiza, amene ndamusankha, amenenso ndimakondwera naye. Ndayika Mzimu wanga mwa Iyeyo, ndipo adzaweruza anthu a mitundu yonse mwachilungamo.
2 Haazodanidziri kana kuridza mhere, kana kusimudza inzwi munzira dzomuguta.
Iye sadzafuwula, sadzamveka mawu, kapena mawu ake kumveka mʼmisewu.
3 Rutsanga rwakapwanyika haangaruvhuni, uye nomwenje unopfungaira haazoudzimi. Mukutendeka, achavigira vanhu kururamisira;
Bango lophwanyika sadzalithyola, ndipo moto wozilala sadzawuzimitsa. Motero adzaonetsa kuti chilungamo ndicho choonadi;
4 haangakoniwi uye haangaperi simba kusvikira asimbisa kururamisirwa panyika. Zviwi zvichaisa tariro yazvo mumurayiro wake.”
sadzafowoka kapena kukhumudwa mpaka atakhazikitsa chilungamo pa dziko lapansi, ndi mpaka mayiko a mʼmbali mwa nyanja atafika poyembekezera malangizo ake.”
5 Zvanzi naMwari Jehovha, iye akasika matenga akaatatamura, akatambanudza nyika nezvose zvinobuda mairi, anopa kufema kuvanhu vayo, noupenyu kuna avo vanofamba pamusoro payo:
Yehova Mulungu amene analenga zamlengalenga ndi kuziyalika, amene analenga dziko lapansi ndi zonse zimene zimabereka, amenenso amapereka mpweya kwa anthu ake okhala mʼdzikomo, ndi moyo kwa onse oyendamo, akuti,
6 “Ini, Jehovha, ndakakudana mukururama; ndichabata ruoko rwako. Ndichakuchengeta ndigokuita kuti uve sungano yavanhu nechiedza kune veDzimwe Ndudzi,
“Ine Yehova, ndakuyitana chifukwa Ine ndine wolungama; ndikugwira dzanja ndipo ndidzakuteteza. Ndakupereka kukhala pangano langa kwa anthu ndi kuwunika kwa anthu a mitundu ina.
7 kuti usvinudze meso asingaoni, usunungure vakasungwa mutorongo uye usunungure vari mugomba, avo vagere murima.
Udzatsekula maso a anthu osaona, udzamasula anthu a mʼndende ndi kutulutsa mʼndende anthu okhala mu mdima.
8 “Ndini Jehovha; ndiro zita rangu! Handizopi kukudzwa kwangu kuno mumwe, kana kurumbidzwa kwangu kuzvifananidzo.
“Ine ndine Yehova: dzina langa ndi limenelo! Sindidzapereka ulemerero wanga kwa wina aliyense kapena matamando anga kwa mafano.
9 Tarira, zvinhu zvakare zvaitika, uye ndiri kutaura zvinhu zvitsva; izvo zvisati zvavapo ndinozvizivisa kwamuri.”
Taonani, zinthu zimene ndinalosera kale zachitikadi, ndipo ndikuwuzani zinthu zatsopano; zinthuzo zisanaonekere Ine ndakudziwitsani.”
10 Imbirai Jehovha rwiyo rutsva, murumbidzei kubva kumagumo enyika, imi munoburukira kugungwa, nezvose zviri mariri, imi zviwi, navose vanogaramo.
Imbirani Yehova nyimbo yatsopano, mutamandeni inu okhala mʼdziko lonse lapansi, inu amene mumayenda pa nyanja, nyanja ikokome ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo. Inu okhala pa zilumba tamandani Yehova.
11 Gwenga namaguta aro ngazvidanidzire; nzvimbo dzinogara Kedhari ngadzifare. Vanhu veSera ngavaimbe nomufaro; ngavapururudze pamusoro pemakomo.
Chipululu ndi mizinda yake zikweze mawu awo; midzi ya Akedara ikondwere. Anthu a ku Sela ayimbe mwachimwemwe; afuwule kuchokera pamwamba pa mapiri.
12 Ngavape rukudzo kuna Jehovha uye vaparidze rumbidzo yake kuzviwi.
Atamande Yehova ndipo alalike matamando ake kwa anthu apazilumba zonse.
13 Jehovha achabuda somunhu ane simba, semhare, achamutsa kushingaira kwake; nokudanidzira, achamutsa kurwa uye achakunda vavengi vake.
Yehova adzapita ku nkhondo ngati munthu wamphamvu, adzawutsa ukali wake ngati munthu wankhondo; akukuwa ndiponso akufuwula mfuwu wankhondo ndipo adzagonjetsa adani ake.
14 “Nokuti ndanga ndakanyarara kwenguva refu, ndanga ndinyerere uye ndichizvidzora. Asi zvino kufanana nomukadzi ari kusununguka, ndiri kudanidzira, ndiri kufemedzeka nokutakwaira.
Yehova akuti, “Ndakhala ndili chete kwa nthawi yayitali, ndakhala ndili phee osachita kanthu. Koma tsopano, ngati mayi pa nthawi yochira, ndi kubuwula ndi kupuma modukizadukiza ndipo ndili wefuwefu.
15 Ndichaparadza makomo nezvikomo, uye ndichaomesa zvose zvawo zvinomera; ndichashandura nzizi dzikava zviwi, uye madziva ndichaaomesa.
Ndidzawononga mapiri ndi zitunda ndipo ndidzawumitsa zomera zawo zonse; ndidzasandutsa mitsinje kukhala zilumba ndipo ndidzawumitsa maiwe.
16 Ndichatungamirira mapofu nenzira dzavasingazivi, nomumakwara avasina kuziva, ndichavatungamirira; ndichashandura rima rikava chiedza pamberi pavo uye ndichaita kuti nzvimbo dzakaipa dziti chechetere. Izvi ndizvo zvinhu zvandichaita; handizovasiya.
Ndidzatsogolera anthu osaona mʼmisewu imene sanayidziwe, ndidzawatsogolera mʼnjira zimene sanayendepo; ndidzasandutsa mdima wa kutsogolo kwawo kuti ukhale kuwala ndipo ndidzasalaza malo osalala. Zimenezi ndizo ndidzachite; sindidzawataya.
17 Asi ivo vanovimba nezvifananidzo, vanoti kune zvakaumbwa, ‘Ndimi vamwari vedu,’ vachadzoserwa shure mukunyadziswa kukuru.
Koma onse amene amadalira mafano amene amanena kwa mafanowo kuti, ‘ndinu milungu yathu,’ ndidzawachititsa manyazi kotheratu.
18 “Inzwai, imi matsi; tarirai, imi mapofu, muone!
“Imvani, agonthi inu; yangʼanani osaona inu, kuti muone!
19 Ndianiko bofu, asi muranda wangu, uye matsi kufanana nenhume yandinotuma? Ndianiko bofu rakafanana naiye akazvipira kwandiri, kana bofu rakafanana nomuranda waJehovha?
Ali wosaona ndani, si mtumiki wanga kodi? Ndipo ndani ali wosamva ngati mthenga amene ndamutuma? Kodi ndani ali wosaona ngati uja ndinachita naye pangano, kapena wosaona ndani ngati mtumiki wa Yehova?
20 Wakaona zvinhu zvizhinji, asi hauna kuva nehanya; nzeve dzako dzakazaruka, asi hauna chaunonzwa.”
Iwe waona zinthu zambiri, koma sunazisamale; makutu ako ndi otsekuka koma sumva kanthu.”
21 Zvakafadza Jehovha nokuda kwokururama kwake, kuti akudze murayiro wake uye aubwinyise.
Chinamukomera Yehova chifukwa cha chilungamo chake, kapena lamulo lake kukhala lalikulu ndi lopambana.
22 Asi ava ndivo vanhu vakapambwa uye vakabirwa, vose vakasungwa mumakomba kana kuti vakavanzwa mumatorongo. Vakava vabatwa, pasina anovarwira; vakaitwa chinhu chakapambwa, pasina anoti, “Vadzoserei kwavakabva.”
Koma awa ndi anthu amene afunkhidwa ndi kuwalanda zinthu zawo, onsewa anawakola mʼmaenje kapena akuwabisa mʼndende. Tsono asanduka chofunkha popanda wina wowapulumutsa kapena kunena kuti, “Abwezeni kwawo.”
23 Ndiani pakati penyu achateerera izvi, kana kurerekera nzeve dzake zvikuru panguva inouya?
Kodi ndani wa inu amene adzamvetsera zimenezi kapena kutchera khutu ndi kumva za mʼtsogolomo?
24 Ndiani akarega Jakobho achipambwa, akaendesa Israeri kuvapambi? Akanga asiri Jehovha here, iye watakatadzira? Nokuti havana kuda kutevera nzira dzake; havana kuteerera murayiro wake.
Ndani anapereka Yakobo kwa ofunkha, ndi Israeli kwa anthu akuba? Kodi si Yehova, amene ife tamuchimwirayu? Pakuti sanathe kutsatira njira zake; ndipo sanamvere malangizo ake.
25 Naizvozvo akadururira hasha dzake dzinopisa pamusoro pavo, iro bongozozo rehondo. Rakavaputira muvira romoto, asi havana kunzwisisa; rakavapisa, asi mwoyo yavo yakashaya hanya nazvo.
Motero anawakwiyira kwambiri, nawavutitsa ndi nkhondo. Anayatsa moto ponseponse mowazungulira komabe iwo sanamvetse; motowo unawapsereza, koma iwo sanatengepo phunziro ayi.
