UIsaya

Isahluko 51

Phulaphulani kum, nina babusukelayo ubulungisa, bamquqelayo uYehova; bhekani eweni enaxholwa kulo, nasesigingqini somhadi enembiwa kuwo.
2 Bhekani kuAbraham uyihlo, nakuSara owanizalayo; kuba waye emnye ndakumbiza, ndakumsikelela, ndakumandisa.
3 Ngokuba uYehova uyithuthuzele iZiyon, uwathuthuzele onke amanxuwa ayo, wayenza intlango yayo yanjenge-Eden, nenkqantosi yayo yanjengomyezo kaYehova; kufumaneka imihlali nemivuyo kuyo, imibulelo nezwi lohadi.
4 Ndibazeleni indlebe, bantu bam; ndibekeleni indlebe, sizwe sam; ngokuba isiyalelo siya kuphuma kum, ndilizinzise isiko lam, ukuba libe sisikhanyiso sezizwe.
5 Busondele ubulungisa bam, luphumile usindiso lwam; iingalo zam ziya kugweba izizwe, iziqithi zithembele kum, zilindele engalweni yam.
6 Phakamiselani ezulwini amehlo enu, nibheke nasemhlabeni phantsi; ngokuba izulu liya kuthi shwaka njengomsi, wonakale umhlaba njengengubo, nabemi bawo bafe ngokunjalo, lube ngonaphakade lona usindiso lwam, bungaqotywa ubulungisa bam.
7 Phulaphulani kum, nina nibaziyo ubulungisa, bantu banesiyalo sam entliziyweni yabo; musani ukukoyika ukungcikiva kwabafo, ningaqhiphuki umbilini kukunyelisa kwabo.
8 Kuba amanundu aya kubadla njengengubo, umbungu ubadle njengoboya begusha; ke bona ubulungisa bam buya kuba ngunaphakade, nosindiso lwam lube kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
9 Vuka, vuka, nxiba amandla, ngalo kaYehova! Vuka, njengokwemihla yamandulo, njengokwezizukulwana zaphakade! Asinguwe na lowa wachitha uRahabhi, wayihlaba ingwenya?
10 Asinguwe na lowa womisa ulwandle, amanzi enzonzobila enkulu; iinzulu zolwandle wazenza indlela yokuwela abahlawulelweyo?
11 Ke abakhululwa bakaYehova baya kubuya babuye, beze eZiyon bememelela, benovuyo olungunaphakade phezu kweentloko zabo; baya kufumana imihlali nemivuyo, sisabe isingqala nokuncwina.
12 Mna ndinguye uMthuthuzeli wenu; ungubani na wena, ukuba woyike umfo oza kufa, nonyana womntu owenziwe wanga yingca;
13 ukuba umlibale uYehova uMenzi wakho, uManeki wezulu, uMseki wehlabathi; ukuba uhlale unkwantya imini yonke bubushushu bombandezeli, ngokokuba exunela ukonakalisa; buphi na ke ubushushu bombandezeli?
14 Ogotyiweyo ngamakhamandela wobehle akhululwe, angafeli esihogweni, angasisweli isonka sakhe.
15 Kuba ndinguYehova uThixo wakho, uMlatyuzisi wolwandle, agqume amaza alo, ogama lakhe linguYehova wemikhosi.
16 Ndiwabekile amazwi am emlonyeni wakho, ndakugubungela ngesithunzi sesandla sam, ukuba ndityale izulu, ukuba ndiseke ihlabathi, ukuba ndithi kwiZiyon, Ningabantu bam.
17 Zivuse, zivuse, suk’ ume, Yerusalem wena uyiseleyo esandleni sikaYehova indebe yobushushu bakhe; uyisele wayifinca indebe enombilini ehexisayo.
18 Bekungekho namnye uyithundezayo iYerusalem, phakathi koonyana bonke eyabazalayo; bekungekho namnye uyibambe ngesandla, phakathi koonyana bonke eyabakhulisayo.
19 Zazimbini izinto ezakuhlelayo; ngubani na owakukhuzayo? Yimbuqo nokwaphuka, yindlala nekrele; bendingathini na ukukuthuthuzela?
20 Oonyana bakho bawa isiduli, balala emantloko ezitrato zonke, njengeula eli libanjisiweyo; bazele bubushushu bukaYehova, kukukhalima koThixo wakho.
21 Ngako oko, khawuve le nto, wena ludwayinge, unxilayo kodwa kungengayo iwayini;
22 itsho iNkosi yakho uYehova, uThixo wakho obathethelelayo abantu bakhe, ukuthi, Yabona, ndiyayithabatha esandleni sakho indebe ehexisayo, indebe enombilini yobushushu bam; akusayi kuphinda usele kuyo.
23 Ndoyibeka esandleni sabakwenza isingqala, ababesithi kumphefumlo wakho, Qubuda sigqithe, waza wena wawenza umhlana wakho wanjengomhlaba, wanjengesitrato kwabagqitha phezu kwawo.
