UIsaya
Isahluko 45
Utsho uYehova kumthanjiswa wakhe, kuKoreshi, endimbambe ngesandla sokunene, ukuba ndizinyathele iintlanga phambi kwakhe; ndikhulule amanqe ookumkani, ukuba ndizivule iingcango ezingambini, namasango angabi nakuvalwa:
2 ukuthi, Ndiya kuhamba phambi kwakho, ndilungelelanise iindawo ezimaqhubu, ndiqhekeze iingcango zobhedu, ndixakaxe nemivalo yesinyithi;
3 ndikunike ubuncwane obusemnyameni, neengqwebo ezisezintsithelweni; ukuze wazi, ukuba mna Yehova ndingulo ukubize ngegama, uThixo kaSirayeli.
4 Ngenxa yomkhonzi wam uYakobi, uSirayeli umnyulwa wam, ndakubiza ngegama lakho, ndakuthiya namanye amagama, ungandazi.
5 NdinguYehova; akukho wumbi, akukho Thixo ingendim.
6 Ndakubhinqa ungandazi, ukuze bazi, bethabathela ekuphumeni kwelanga bese nasekutshoneni kwalo, ukuba akukho namnye ingendim; ndinguYehova, akukho wumbi.
7 NdinguMenzi wokukhanya, uMdali wobumnyama, uMenzi woxolo, uMdali wobubi: mna Yehova ndinguMenzi wezo zinto zonke.
8 Vuzisani, mazulu phezulu, sikhumezele ubulungisa isibhakabhaka; mawuvuleke umhlaba, uqhame usindiso, uhlumise ubulungisa kunye: mna Yehova ndikudalile oko.
9 Yeha ke, obambana noMenzi wakhe! Ligophe emagopheni ezitya zomdongwe! Udongwe lunokuthi na kumbumbi walo, Wenza ntoni na? nomsebenzi wakho unokuthi na, Akunazandla?
10 Yeha ke, othi kuyise, Uzaleleni na? nakumfazi, Unanimba ngani na?
11 Utsho uYehova, oyiNgcwele kaSirayeli, uMenzi wakhe, ukuthi, buzani kum izinto ezizayo; oonyana bam nomsebenzi wezandla zam wuyalezeni kum.
12 Mna ndenza ihlabathi, ndadala abantu phezu kwalo; izandla zam, mna lo zaneka izulu, nomkhosi walo wonke ndawuwisela umthetho.
13 Mna ndimvelisile ngobulungisa, ndiya kuzilungelelanisa iindlela zakhe zonke. Yena uya kuwakha umzi wam, abakhulule abafuduswa bam, kungarholwanga nani, kungarholwanga sicengo; utsho uYehova wemikhosi.
14 Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Ukuxelenga kweYiputa nokurhweba kukaKushi nokwamaSebha, abafo abanewonga, kuya kuwelela kuwe kube kokwakho. Baya kuhamba emva kwakho, baya kuwela benemixokelelwane, baqubude kuwe; baya kuthandaza kuwe, besithi, Inene, ukuwe uThixo; akusekho thixo, akukho nokuba abe mnye.
15 Inyaniso, unguThixo ozisithelisayo, Thixo kaSirayeli, Msindisi.
16 Baya kudana, kananjalo bahlazeke bonke bephela; baya kuhamba behlazekile kunye abaziingcibi zezithixo.
17 USirayeli uya kusindiswa nguYehova ngosindiso olungunaphakade; aniyi kudaniswa, aniyi kuhlazeka, kude kuse emaphakadeni asephakadeni.
18 Ngokuba utsho uYehova, uMdali wezulu (nguye uThixo), uMenzi wehlabathi, uMseki walo, yena walizinzisayo (akalidalelanga ukuba kube senyanyeni, walibumba ukuba limiwe), ukuthi, NdinguYehova, akukho wumbi.
19 Andithethanga entsithelweni, endaweni emnyama yelizwe; anditshongo embewini kaYakobi ukuthi, Ndiquqeleni enyanyeni. Mna Yehova ndithetha ubulungisa, ndixela into ethe tye.
20 Buthani nize, sondelani kunye, nina basindileyo basezintlangeni: abanakwazi abathwali bomthi womfanekiso wabo oqinqiweyo, abathandazi bothixo ongasindisiyo.
21 Xelani, nifikise; ewe, mabacebisane kunye, ukuthi, Ngubani na owavisa oko kwabamandulo, owakuxelayo kwanini? Asindim na Yehova, ekungekho Thixo wumbi ingendim? UThixo onobulungisa, osindisayo, akakho ingendim.
22 Bhekani kum, nisindiswe, nonke ziphelo zehlabathi; ngokuba ndinguThixo, akukho wumbi.
23 Ndizifungile, ilizwi liphume emlonyeni ngobulungisa, aliyi kuguqulwa; lithe, Aya kuguqa kum onke amadolo, zifunge mna zonke iilwimi;
24 kuthiwe ngokubhekisele kum, KuYehova yedwa bubulungisa namandla, kuyiwa kuye; baya kudana bonke abavutha ngomsindo ngaye.
25 NgoYehova iya kugwetyelwa iqhayise yonke imbewu kaSirayeli.
