Isaya 48
1 “Inzwai izvi, imi imba yaJakobho, makatumidzwa zita raIsraeri, uye muchibva kurudzi rwaJudha, imi munoita mhiko muzita raJehovha, uye munodana kuna Mwari waIsraeri, asi musingaiti muzvokwadi kana mukururama,
Listen to this O house of Jacob those [who] are called by [the] name of Israel and from [the] waters of Judah they came out those [who] swear - by [the] name of Yahweh and [the] God of Israel they bring to remembrance not in truth and not in righteousness.
2 imi munozviti vagari vomuguta dzvene, muchivimba naMwari weIsraeri; Jehovha Wamasimba Ose ndiro zita rake:
For from [the] city of holiness they have called themselves and on [the] God of Israel they have supported themselves [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
3 Ndakazivisa zvinhu zvakare, kare kare, muromo wangu wakazvireva uye ndakaita kuti zvizivikanwe; ipapo nokukurumidza ndakazviita, uye zvikaitika.
The former [things] from then I declared and from mouth my they went out and I proclaimed them suddenly I acted and they came.
4 Nokuti ndaiziva kuti mwoyo wako wakanga wakasindimara sei; nokuti mutsipa wako wakanga uri runda rwesimbi, huma yako yakanga iri ndarira.
For knew I that [were] stubborn you and [was] a sinew of iron neck your and forehead your [was] bronze.
5 Naizvozvo ndakakuudza zvinhu izvi kare kare; zvisati zvaitika ndakazvizivisa kwauri, kuitira kuti urege kuzoti, ‘Zvifananidzo zvangu, ndizvo zvakazviita; mufananidzo wangu wedanda namwari wangu wesimbi ndizvo zvakarayira izvozvo.’
And I declared [them] to you from then before it came I proclaimed to you lest you should say idol my it did them and carved image my and molten image my it commanded them.
6 Wakazvinzwa zvinhu izvi; zvitarire zvose. Haungazvibvumi here? “Kubva zvino ndichakuzivisa zvinhu zvitsva, zvakavanzika zvausingazivi.
You have heard look at all of it and you ¿ not will you tell I will proclaim to you new [things] from now and secret [things] and not you have known them.
7 Zvava kusikwa zvino, uye hakusi kare; hauna kumbozvinzwa zuva ranhasi risati rasvika. Saka haugoni kuti, ‘Hongu, ndaizviziva.’
Now they have been created and not from then and before a day and not you had heard of them lest you should say here! I knew them.
8 Hauna kumbonzwa kana kunzwisisa; kubva kare nzeve yako yakanga isina kudziurwa. Ndinoziva kwazvo kuti uri munyengeri akadii; wakanzi mhandu kubva pakuzvarwa kwako.
Neither not you heard nor not you knew nor from then not it opened ear your for I knew certainly you will act treacherously and a rebel from [the] womb it has been called to you.
9 Nokuda kwezita rangu ndinononoka kutsamwa; nokuda kwokurumbidzwa kwangu ndinozvidzora pamusoro pako, kuti ndisakuparadza.
For [the] sake of name my I will make long anger my and praise my I will restrain myself to you to not to cut off you.
10 Tarira, ndakakunatsa, kunyange zvisina kuita sesirivha; ndakakuedza muchoto chokutambudzika.
Here! I have refined you and not silver I have chosen you in a furnace of affliction.
11 Nokuda kwangu, nokuda kwangu, ndinoita izvi. Ko, ndingaregererei zita rangu richimhurwa? Handingapi kukudzwa kwangu kuno mumwe.
For own sake my for own sake my I will act for how? will it be profaned and glory my to another not I will give.
12 “Nditeerere, iwe Jakobho, Israeri, wandakadaidza; ndini iye: ndini wokutanga uye ndini wokupedzisira.
Listen to me O Jacob and Israel called [one] my I [am] he I [am] first also I [am] last.
13 Ruoko rwangu ndirwo rwakateya nheyo dzenyika, uye ruoko rwangu rworudyi rwakatambanudza matenga; pandinozvidana, zvose zvinomira pamwe chete.
Also hand my it founded [the] earth and right [hand] my it spread out [the] heavens [am] calling I to them they stand together.
14 “Unganai pamwe chete, imi mose muteerere; Ndechipiko chimwe chezvifananidzo chakakuudzai kuti zvinhu izvi zvichaitika? Iye anodikanwa naJehovha achaita zvakarongwa naJehovha pamusoro peBhabhironi; ruoko rwake rucharwisa vaBhabhironi.
Gather together all of you and listen who? among them has he declared these [things] Yahweh he loves him he will execute pleasure his on Babylon and arm his [the] Chaldeans.
15 Ini, iyeni ndataura; hongu, ndamudana. Ndichauya naye, uye achabudirira pane zvaanotumwa.
I I I have spoken also I have summoned him I have brought him and he will make successful way his.
16 “Swederai kwandiri muteerere izvi: “Kubvira pachiziviso chokutanga handina kumbotaura muchivande; panguva yazvinoitika, ndinenge ndiripo.” Uye zvino Ishe Jehovha andituma noMweya wake.
Draw near to me listen to this not from [the] beginning in secrecy I have spoken from [the] time happened it [was] there I and now [the] Lord Yahweh he has sent me and spirit his.
17 Zvanzi naJehovha Mudzikinuri wako, Mutsvene waIsraeri: “Ndini Jehovha Mwari wako, anokudzidzisa zvinokubatsira, anokutungamirira munzira yaunofanira kufamba nayo.
Thus he says Yahweh redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel I [am] Yahweh God your [who] teaches you to profit [who] leads you in [the] way [which] you will go.
18 Dai chete wakanga wateerera mirayiro yangu, rugare rwako rungadai rwakaita sorwizi, kururama kwako samafungu egungwa.
If you had paid attention to commandments my and it was like river peace your and righteousness your like [the] waves of the sea.
19 Zvizvarwa zvako zvingadai zvakaita sejecha, navana vako vakaita setsanga dzejecha dzisingaverengeki; zita ravo haraimboparara kana kuparadzwa pamberi pangu.”
And it was like the sand offspring your and [the] descendants of inward parts your like grains its not it will be cut off and not it will be destroyed name its from to before me.
20 Mudai muBhabhironi, tizai vaBhabhironi! Zivisai izvi nomufaro mukuru, uye muzviparidze. Zvitumirei kumagumo enyika; muti, “Jehovha adzikinura muranda wake Jakobho.”
Go out from Babylon flee from [the] Chaldeans with a sound of a shout of joy declare proclaim this send out it to [the] end of the earth say he has redeemed Yahweh servant his Jacob.
21 Havana kunzwa nyota paakavatungamirira mugwenga; akaita kuti mvura iyerere ichibva mudombo, achiitira ivo; akatsemura dombo mvura ikatubuka.
And not they were thirsty [when] in [the] waste places he led them water from a rock he caused to flow for them and he split open a rock and they flowed out waters.
22 “Vakaipa havana rugare,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Not peace he says Yahweh [belongs] to wicked [people].
