< Zekaria 14 >
1 Zuva raJehovha richauya zvawakapamba pazvichagoverwa pakati penyu.
Khangela, usuku lweNkosi luyeza, lempango yakho izakwehlukaniswa phakathi kwakho.
2 Ndichaunganidza ndudzi dzose kuJerusarema kuti dzirwise; guta richatorwa, dzimba dzigopambwa, uye vakadzi vachachinyiwa. Hafu yeguta ichatapwa, asi vamwe vanhu vose havazobviswi muguta.
Ngoba ngizabuthanisa zonke izizwe zimelane leJerusalema empini; njalo umuzi uzathunjwa, lezindlu ziphangwe, labesifazana badlwengulwe; lengxenye yomuzi izaphuma iye ekuthunjweni, kodwa insali yabantu kayiyikuqunywa isuke emzini.
3 Ipapo Jehovha achabuda kuti andorwisa ndudzi idzodzo, sokurwa kwaanoita pazuva rehondo.
Khona iNkosi izaphuma, ilwe imelene lalezozizwe, njengamhla isilwa ngosuku lwempi.
4 Pazuva iroro tsoka dzake dzichamira paGomo reMiorivhi, kumabvazuva kweJerusarema, uye Gomo reMiorivhi richapamuka napakati kubva kumabvazuva kusvikira kumadokero, pagoita mupata mukuru kwazvo, imwe hafu yegomo ichatsedukira kurutivi rwokumusoro uye imwe hafu ichatsedukira zasi.
Langalolosuku inyawo zayo zizakuma entabeni yeMihlwathi, emaqondana leJerusalema ngasempumalanga; lentaba yeMihlwathi izaqhekezeka phakathi kwayo ngasempumalanga langasentshonalanga, kube lesihotsha esikhulukazi; lengxenye yentaba izatshedela ngasenyakatho, lengxenye yayo ngaseningizimu.
5 Muchatiza nomumupata wegomo rangu, nokuti uchasvika kuAzeri. Muchatiza sokutiza kwamakaita pakudengenyeka kwenyika pamazuva aUzia mambo weJudha. Ipapo Jehovha Mwari wangu achauya, uye navatsvene vose pamwe chete naye.
Lizabaleka-ke ngesihotsha sezintaba zami; ngoba isihotsha sezintaba sizafinyelela eAzali. Yebo, lizabaleka njengokubaleka kwenu phambi kokuzamazama komhlaba ngezinsuku zikaUziya inkosi yakoJuda. Khona iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami izafika, labo bonke abangcwele belawe.
6 Pazuva iroro hakuzovi nechiedza, kutonhora kana chando.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku kungabi khona ukukhanya, kumbe mnyama.
7 Richava zuva rakasiyana namamwe, risina nguva dzousiku kana nguva dzamasikati, zuva rinozivikanwa naJehovha. Kana madekwana asvika, chiedza chichavapo.
Kodwa kuzakuba lusuku olulodwa oluzakwaziwa eNkosini, kungabi yimini, kungabi yibusuku; kodwa kuzakuthi ngesikhathi sakusihlwa kube khona ukukhanya.
8 Pazuva iroro mvura mhenyu ichayerera ichibuda muJerusarema, hafu kugungwa rokumabvazuva uye imwe hafu kugungwa rokumadokero, muzhizha nomuchando.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, amanzi aphilayo aphume eJerusalema; ingxenye yawo iye ngaselwandle lwasempumalanga, lengxenye yawo iye ngaselwandle lwentshonalanga; kuzakuba khona ehlobo lebusika.
9 Jehovha achava mambo panyika yose. Pazuva iroro pachava naJehovha mumwe chete, uye zita rake rigova zita rimwe chete roga.
Njalo uJehova uzakuba yiNkosi phezu komhlaba wonke; ngalolosuku kuzakuba leNkosi eyodwa, lebizo layo libe linye.
10 Nyika yose kubva kuGebha kusvikira kuRimoni, nechezasi kweJerusarema, ichava seArabha. Asi Jerusarema richasimudzirwa rigogara panzvimbo paro, kubva kuSuo raBhenjamini kusvikira kuSuo Rokutanga, kusvikirawo kuSuo Repakona, uye kubva kuShongwe yaHananeri kusvikira kuzvisviniro zvewaini zvamambo.
Ilizwe lonke lizaphendulwa libe njengegceke kusukela eGeba kuze kube seRimoni eningizimu kweJerusalema; liphakanyiswe, lihlale endaweni yalo, kusukela esangweni lakoBhenjamini kuze kube sendaweni yesango lokuqala, kuze kube sesangweni lengonsi, njalo kusukela emphotshongweni kaHananeli kuze kube sezikhamelweni zewayini zenkosi.
11 Ichagarwa; haichazoparadzwizve. Jerusarema richachengetedzeka.
Njalo bazahlala kilo, kungabe kusaba khona ukutshabalala; kodwa iJerusalema izahlala ivikelekile.
12 Iri ndiro denda Jehovha raacharova naro ndudzi dzose dzakarwisa Jerusarema: Nyama yavo ichaora vachakamira namakumbo avo, maziso avo achaorera mumakomba awo, uye rurimi rwomumwe nomumwe wavo ruchaorera mumukanwa make.
Lalokhu kuzakuba yinhlupheko iNkosi ezatshaya ngayo zonke izizwe ezilwe zimelene leJerusalema: Izabolisa inyama yazo zisemi ngenyawo zazo, lamehlo azo abolele ezikhoxweni zawo, lolimi lwazo lubolele emlonyeni wazo.
13 Pazuva iroro varume vacharohwa naJehovha nokutya kukuru. Murume mumwe nomumwe achabata ruoko rwomumwe wake, vagorwisana.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, isiphithiphithi esikhulu seNkosi sibe phakathi kwabo; babambe ngulowo lalowo isandla sikamakhelwane wakhe, futhi isandla sakhe siphakamele ukumelana lesandla sikamakhelwane wakhe.
14 Judhawo icharwa paJerusarema. Upfumi hwendudzi dzose dzakakomberedza Jerusarema huchatorwa, goridhe rakawanda, sirivha yakawanda nenguo zhinji.
LoJuda laye uzakulwa eJerusalema; lenotho yazo zonke izizwe ezizingelezeleyo izabuthwa, igolide lesiliva lezembatho ngobunengi obukhulu.
15 Denda rakafanana nairori richarova mabhiza namanyurusi, ngamera nembongoro, uye nezvipfuwo zvose zviri mumisasa iyoyo.
Izakuba njalo-ke inhlupheko yebhiza, eyembongolo, eyekamela, lekababhemi, leyazo zonke inyamazana ezizakuba kulezizinkamba, njengaleyonhlupheko.
16 Ipapo vachararama kubva kundudzi dzose dzakarwisa Jerusarema vachaenda gore negore kundonamata Mambo, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, uye nokundopemberera Mutambo waMatumba.
Kuzakuthi-ke, bonke abaseleyo ezizweni zonke ezazize ukumelana leJerusalema benyuke iminyaka ngeminyaka ukuyakhonza iNkosi, uJehova wamabandla, lokugcina umkhosi wamadumba.
17 Kana marudzi ose avanhu vapanyika akasaenda kuJerusarema kundonamata Mambo, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, mvura hainganayi munyika dzavo.
Kuzakuthi-ke loba ngubani ongayikwenyuka kuzo insapho zomhlaba aye eJerusalema ukukhonza iNkosi, uJehova wamabandla, kakuyikuba khona izulu phezu kwabo.
18 Kana vaIjipita vakasaenda uye vakasandonamatawo, mvura hainganayi munyika yavo. Jehovha achauyisa denda pamusoro pavo, denda raanorova naro ndudzi dzisingaendi kundopemberera Mutambo waMatumba.
Futhi uba usapho lweGibhithe lungenyuki luze, kakuyikuba lezulu phezu kwalo, kuzakuba lenhlupheko iNkosi ezatshaya ngayo izizwe ezingenyukeli ukuyagcina umkhosi wamadumba.
19 Ichi ndicho chichava chirango cheIjipiti uye nechirango chendudzi dzose dzisingaendi kundopemberera Mutambo waMatumba.
Lokhu kuzakuba yisijeziso sesono seGibhithe, lesijeziso sesono sazo zonke izizwe ezingenyukeli ukugcina umkhosi wamadumba.
20 Pazuva iroro pamabhero amabhiza pachanyorwa kuti, utsvene kuna jehovha, uye hari dzokubikira dziri mumba maJehovha dzichafanana nembiya tsvene dziri pamberi pearitari.
Ngalolosuku kuzakuba semabhereni amabhiza: UBUNGCWELE KUJEHOVA; lezimbiza endlini yeNkosi zizakuba njengemiganu yokufafaza phambi kwelathi.
21 Hari imwe neimwe iri muJerusarema nomuJudha ichava tsvene kuna Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, uye vose vachauya kuzobayira vachatora dzimwe hari vagodzibikira. Uye pazuva iro hakuchazovazve nomuKenani muimba yaJehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Yebo, yileyo laleyo imbiza eJerusalema lakoJuda izakuba yibungcwele eNkosini yamabandla, njalo bonke abenza umhlatshelo bazakuza bathathe kuzo, bapheke kuzo. Njalo kakusayikuba khona umKhanani endlini yeNkosi yamabandla ngalolosuku.
