ʻIsaia 12

1 Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te ke pehē, “ʻE Sihova, te u fakafetaʻi kiate koe: he neongo ne ke houhau, ka kuo ke fakafiemālieʻi au.

Ngalolosuku wena uzakuthi: “Ngizakubonga Oh Thixo. Lanxa wawungithukuthelele ulaka lwakho seluphelile, njalo usungiduduzile.

2 Vakai, ko e ʻOtua ko hoku fakamoʻui te u falala, ka e ʻikai manavahē: he ko e ʻEiki ko Sihova ko hoku mālohi ia mo ʻeku hiva; pea kuo hoko foki ia ko hoku fakamoʻui.”

Ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu uyinsindiso yami; ngizathemba ngingesabi. UThixo, uThixo ngokwakhe ungamandla lengoma yami; usebe yinsindiso yami.”

3 Ko ia te mou ʻutu ʻae vai ʻi he fiefia mei he ngaahi matavai ʻoe moʻui.

Ngentokozo uzakukha amanzi emithonjeni yensindiso.

4 Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te mou pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ui ki hono huafa, fakahā ʻene ngaahi ngāue ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, fakamatala kuo hiki hake hono huafa.

Ngalolosuku uzakuthi: “Mbongeni uThixo, bizani ibizo lakhe, zaziseni izizwe ngalokhu akwenzileyo, limemezele ukuthi ibizo lakhe liphakeme.

5 Hiva kia Sihova; he kuo ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lelei ʻaupito: ʻoku ʻilo ia ʻe māmani kotoa pē.

Hlabelelani kuThixo, ngoba wenze izinto ezinhle kakhulu; lokhu kwenzeni kwazakale emhlabeni wonke.

6 Kalanga pea mavava ʻi he fiefia, ʻa koe ʻoku nofo ʻi Saione: he ʻoku lahi ʻae tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli ʻoku ʻiate koe.”

Memezani kakhulu lihlabele ngokuthokoza, bantu baseZiyoni, ngoba mkhulu oNgcwele ka-Israyeli phakathi kwenu.”
