ʻIsaia 19
1 Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki ʻIsipite. Vakai, ʻoku heka ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻao ngaholo, ʻo hāʻele ki ʻIsipite: pea ʻe tetetete ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻe vaivai ʻae loto ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi loto ʻiate ia.
Isiphrofethi esimayelana leGibhithe sithi: Khangela uThixo ukhwele phezu kweyezi elilesiqubu esiza eGibhithe. Izithombe zaseGibhithe ziyathuthumela phambi kwakhe, njalo inhliziyo zamaGibhithe ziba buthakathaka ngaphakathi kwawo.
2 Pea te u fakafehiʻa ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ki he kakai ʻIsipite: pea ʻe tau ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono tokoua, pea taki taha ki hono kaungāʻapi; ʻae kolo ki he kolo, mo e puleʻanga ki he puleʻanga.
“Ngizadunga umGibhithe alwe lomGibhithe, umuntu uzakulwa lomfowabo, umakhelwane alwe lomakhelwane, idolobho lilwe ledolobho, umbuso ulwe lombuso.
3 Pea ʻe vaivai ʻae laumālie ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia; pea te u maumauʻi ʻae fakakaukau ʻaʻana: pea te nau kumi ki he ngaahi tamapua, pea ki he kau fiemana, pea kiate kinautolu ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie kovi, pea ki he kau kikite.
AbaseGibhithe bazaphelelwa lithemba, njalo ngizakwenza amacebo abo abe yize; bazabuza izithombe lemimoya yabafayo, amadlozi lezanuse.
4 Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Te u tuku atu ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsipite ki he nima ʻo ha ʻeiki ʻoku fakamamahi; pea ʻe puleʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe ha tuʻi ʻoku fai mālohi.
AbaseGibhithe ngizabanikela enkosini elesihluku, inkosi eyesabekayo izababusa,” kutsho iNkosi, uThixo uSomandla.
5 Pea ʻe maha ʻae ngaahi vai mei he tahi, pea ʻe fakaʻaʻau ke mōmoa ʻae vaitafe.
Amanzi omfula azakutsha, umfula uzacitsha, wome.
6 Pea te nau fakanamukūʻi ʻae ngaahi vaitafe; pea ko e ngaahi vai ʻoku mou faʻaki ki ai ʻe fakamaha pea ʻe mōmoa: ʻe mae ʻae ngaahi kaho mo e falaki.
Imigelo izanuka, izifula zaseGibhithe zizakwentsha zitshe. Imihlanga lebhuma kuzabuna,
7 Ko e ngoue ʻi he veʻe vai, ʻi he ngutu ʻoe ngaahi vai, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku tūtuuʻi ʻi he veʻe vai, ʻe mae, ʻe mole, pea ʻikai.
kanjalo lezihlahlanyana emakhunjini kaNayili lapho umfula othela khona. Konke okuhlanyelwe eduzane loNayili Kuzakoma, kuphephukele khatshana Kungabikhona.
8 ʻE mamahi foki ʻae kau toutai ika, pea ʻe lāunga mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku taumātaʻu ʻi he ngaahi vai, pea ʻe vaivai mo kinautolu ʻoku lafo kupenga ki he ngaahi vai.
Abagoli benhlanzi bazabubula balile, bonke abaphosa amawuka kuNayili, loba abajika amambule emanzini bazaphela amandla.
9 Pea ko kinautolu foki ʻoku ngaohi ʻae tupenu lelei, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku lalanga ʻae tupenu vavanga, ʻe fakaʻaʻau ke vaivai.
Labo abasebenzisa isikusha bazadangala, abeluka ilineni elihle bazaphelelwa lithemba.
10 Pea ʻe maumauʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻokinautolu ʻoku ngaohi ʻae ngaahi matapā mo e anovai ki he ika.
Izisebenzi zasemalenjini zizadana, njalo bonke abahola imiholo bazakuba lusizi.
11 Ko e moʻoni ko e kau vale ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Soani, ko e fakakaukau ʻoe kau poto ʻo Felo kuo hoko ia ko e fakakaukau vale: ko e hā ʻoku mou pehē ai kia Felo, Ko au ko e foha ʻoe poto, ko e hako ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻi muʻa?
Izikhulu zaseZowani azisilutho kodwa izithutha nje; abaluleki bakaFaro abahlakaniphileyo banika izeluleko zobuwula. Ungatsho kanjani kuFaro uthi, “Mina ngingomunye wamadoda ahlakaniphileyo, umfundi wamakhosi endulo?”
12 ʻOku ʻi fē ʻakinautolu? ʻOku ʻi fē hoʻo kau tangata poto? Tuku ke nau fakahā atu ni kiate koe, pea tuku ke nau ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻae finangalo ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ki ʻIsipite,
Khathesi bangaphi abantu bakini abahlakaniphileyo? Kabalitshengise balazise ngalokhu uThixo uSomandla asecebe ukukwenza emelana leGibhithe.
13 Kuo hoko ʻo vale ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Soani, kuo kākaaʻi ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Nofi; pea kuo nau fakahala ʻa ʻIsipite ʻae mālohiʻanga ʻo hono ngaahi faʻahinga.
Izikhulu zaseZowani sezibe yizithutha, abakhokheli baseMemfisi bakhohlisiwe, abazinsika zabantu bakhona sebedukise iGibhithe.
14 Kuo tuku ʻe Sihova ki honau lotolotonga ha laumālie talangataʻa: pea kuo nau fakahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsipite ʻi heʻene ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e tasipa ʻae tangata konā ʻi heʻene lua.
UThixo usethele umoya wesiyezi phakathi kwabo; benza iGibhithe ibhadazele kukho konke ekwenzayo, njengesidakwa sidiyazela emahlanzweni aso.
15 Pea ʻe ʻikai ha ngāue ki ʻIsipite, ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he ʻulu pe ko e iku, ʻe he vaʻa pe ko e tefito.
Akulalutho iGibhithe engalwenza, ikhanda loba umsila, ugatsha lwelala loba umhlanga.
16 ʻE tatau ʻa ʻIsipite ʻi he ʻaho ko ia mo e kau fefine: pea ʻe tetetete mo manavahē ia koeʻuhi ko e lulululu ʻoe nima ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻaia te ne lulululu kiate kinautolu.
Ngalolosuku abaseGibhithe bazafana labesifazane. Bazathuthumela ngokwesaba isandla esiphakanyisiweyo uThixo uSomandla abaphakamisele sona.
17 Pea ʻe hoko ʻae fonua ko Siuta ko e ilifiaʻanga ki ʻIsipite, pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku lea ki ai ʻe tetetete, koeʻuhi ko e tuʻutuʻuni ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻaia kuo ne fakakaukau ki ai.
Lelizwe lakoJuda lizaletha ukwesaba kwabaseGibhithe. Bonke okuzakhulunywa kubo ngoJuda bazathuthumela, ngenxa yalokho uThixo uSomandla aceba ukukwenza kubo.
18 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe lea ʻaki ʻae lea fakaKēnani ʻe he kolo ʻe nima ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea te nau fuakava kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; pea ʻe ui ʻae kolo ʻe taha, “Ko e kolo ʻoe fakaʻauha.”
Ngalolosuku amadolobho amahlanu aseGibhithe azakhuluma ulimi lwaseKhenani, afungele ukwethembeka kuThixo uSomandla. Elinye lawo lizathiwa liDolobho leNcithakalo.
19 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe ʻai ʻae feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova ʻi he loto fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, pea mo ha pou kia Sihova ʻi hono ngataʻanga.
Ngalolosuku kuzakuba le-alithari likaThixo phakathi kwelizwe laseGibhithe, lelitshe lesikhumbuzo sikaThixo emngceleni walo.
20 Pea ʻe hoko ia ko e fakaʻilonga pea ko e fakamoʻoni kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite: he te nau tangi kia Sihova koeʻuhi ko e kau fakamālohi, pea te ne fekau kiate kinautolu ha fakamoʻui, ko e tokotaha ʻoku lahi, pea te ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
Lizakuba yisibonakaliso lobufakazi kuThixo uSomandla elizweni laseGibhithe. Lapho bekhalaza kuThixo ngenxa yabancindezeli babo, uzabathumela umsindisi lomvikeli, abahlenge.
21 Pea ʻe ʻiloʻi ʻa Sihova ʻe ʻIsipite, pea ʻe ʻilo ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, pea te nau fai ʻae feilaulau mo e foaki; ʻio, te nau fuakava ʻaki ha fuakava kia Sihova, pea fai ki ai.
Kanjalo uThixo uzakwenza ukuba azakale kwabaseGibhithe, njalo ngalolosuku bazamvuma uThixo. Bazakhonza ngemihlatshelo langeminikelo yamabele; bazakwenza izifungo kuThixo, bazigcine.
22 Pea ʻe taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻIsipite: te ne taaʻi pea fakamoʻui: pea te nau toe tafoki kia Sihova, pea te ne tali ʻa ʻenau hū, pea te ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
UThixo uzatshaya iGibhithe ngesifo; uzabatshaya aphinde abasilise. Bazaphendukela kuThixo, njalo uzakuzwa imikhuleko yabo abasilise.
23 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe ai ha hala motuʻa mei ʻIsipite ki ʻAsilia, pea ʻe haʻu ʻae kau ʻAsilia ki ʻIsipite, pea ʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ki ʻAsilia, pea ʻe fai fakataha ʻae kakai ʻIsipite mo e kakai ʻAsilia.
Ngalolosuku bazakuba lomgwaqo osuka eGibhithe usiya e-Asiriya. Abase-Asiriya bazakuya eGibhithe, abeGibhithe labo baye e-Asiriya. AbaseGibhithe labase-Asiriya bazakhonza ndawonye.
24 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe lau ko hono toko tolu ʻa ʻIsileli fakataha mo ʻIsipite mo ʻAsilia, ʻio, ko e tāpuaki ʻi he loto fonua:
Ngalolosuku i-Israyeli izakuba ngeyesithathu kanye leGibhithe le-Asiriya kube yisibusiso emhlabeni.
25 ʻAia ʻe tāpuaki ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke monūʻia ʻa ʻIsipite ko hoku kakai, pea mo ʻAsilia ko e ngāue ʻa hoku nima, pea mo ʻIsileli ko hoku tofiʻa.’”
UThixo uSomandla uzababusisa esithi, “Kayibusiswe iGibhithe abantu bami, i-Asiriya umsebenzi wezandla zami le-Israyeli ilifa lami.”
