< Isaya 56 >
1 Zvanzi naJehovha: “Chengetedzai kururamisira mugoita zvakanaka, nokuti ruponeso rwangu rwava pedyo, uye kururama kwangu kuchakurumidza kuratidzwa.
2 Akaropafadzwa munhu anoita izvi, munhu anozvibatisisa, anochengeta Sabata asingarisvibisi, uye anodzivisa ruoko rwake kuita chinhu chakaipa.”
3 Mutorwa akanamatira kuna Jehovha ngaarege kuti, “Zvirokwazvo Jehovha achandiparadzanisa navanhu vake.” Uye nomuyunaki ngaarege kugununʼuna achiti, “Ndinongova zvangu muti wakaoma.”
4 Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha: “Kuvayunaki vanochengeta maSabata angu, vanosarudza zvinondifadza, uye vanobatirira pasungano yangu,
5 kwavari ndichapa, mukati metemberi yangu namasvingo ayo, chirangaridzo nezita riri nani kupfuura vanakomana navanasikana; ndichavapa zita risingaperi, risingazoparadzwi.
6 Uye vatorwa vakazvipira kuna Jehovha kuti vamushumire, kuti vade zita raJehovha, uye vamunamate, vose vanochengeta Sabata vasingarisvibisi vachibatisisa sungano yangu,
7 ivava ndichavauyisa kugomo rangu dzvene ndigovapa mufaro muimba yangu yokunyengetera. Zvipiriso zvavo zvinopiswa nezvibayiro zvichagamuchirwa paaritari yangu; nokuti imba yangu ichanzi imba yokunyengetera yendudzi dzose.”
8 Ishe Jehovha anoti, iye anounganidza vakatapwa vaIsraeri, “Ndichaunganidzazve vamwe kwavari, tisingaverengeri avo vakaunganidzwa kare.”
9 Uyai, imi mose zvikara zvesango, uyai mudye, imi mose zvikara zvesango!
10 Nharirire dzeIsraeri mapofu, vose vanoshayiwa zivo; vose imbwa dzisingahukuri, hadzigoni kuhukura; dzinovata pose pose dzichingorota, dzinofarira kuvata.
11 Imbwa dzinokara zvikuru; dzisingamboguti. Vafudzi vanoshayiwa kunzwisisa: vose vanotsaukira kunzira yavo pachavo, mumwe nomumwe anotsvaka zvinomupfumisa.
12 Mumwe nomumwe anodanidzira achiti, “Uyai, regai nditore waini! Regai tinwe tigute nedoro! Uye mangwana achafanana nanhasi, kana kutopfuura.”
