Izaiya
30 Yahova alonga: “Dzedze kuna ana akukhonda bvera,+
Akuti asacita pinafuna iwo, tayu pinafuna ine,+
Akuti asacita cibverano* mwakukhonda tsogolerwa na nzimu wanga,
Toera kuthimizira madawo padzulu pa madawo.
2 Mwakukhonda kundibvundzisa,*+ iwo asatcitira mpaka ku Ejitu+
Toera kuenda katsidzikizwa na Farau*
Pontho toera acite Ejitu ninga nʼthundzi wawo wakuthawira!
3 Mbwenye citsidzikizo ca Farau cinadzakupasani manyadzo,
Pontho kuthawira mu nʼthundzi wa Ejitu kunadzakupwazisani.+
4 Atsogoleri ali ku Zoani,+
Pontho anthu adatumwa afika ku Anesi.
5 Iwo onsene anadzapaswa manyadzo
Na mbumba yakusowa basa,
Yakuti nee inaaphedza, pontho yakuti nee inaawinisa cinthu,
Mbwenye basi ene inaabweresera manyadzo na kutsukwala.”+
6 Mphangwa zakutonga zinalonga pya pinyama pya kunterero:
Apita na mu dziko yakunentsa na ya nyatwa,
Ya nkhalamu, nkhalamu zakulira,
Dziko ya nyoka za venenu na ya nyoka zakugopswa;
Iwo athukisa maburu mpfuma zawo,
Pontho miyoni yawo aiikha pa nthuku za makamelo.
Mbwenye pinthu pyenepi nee pinadzaphedza mbumba.
7 Thangwi ciphedzo ca Ejitu ndi cakusowa basa.+
Natenepa, ine ndampasa dzina yakuti “Raabhe,+ ule anakhala kwene nee kucita cinthu.”
8 “Cincino ndoko kakwate cinthu, ulembe pyenepi iwo mbakaona,
Lemba pinthu pyenepi mʼbukhu,+
Toera ntsogolo, pyenepi pikhale
Ninga umboni wakwenda na kwenda.+
10 Iwo asapanga anyakuona masomphenya: ‘Lekani kuona masomphenya,’
Pontho asapanga anyakuona pyantsogolo: ‘Lekani kutipanga masomphenya andimomwene.+
Tipangeni pinthu pyakutikomera* basi; muone masomphenya authambi.+
11 Siyani njira yadidi; pitani na njira inango.
Lekanibve kutipanga pya Wakucena wa Izraeli.’”+
12 Natenepa, Wakucena wa Izraeli alonga:
“Nakuti mukukhonda kubva pinalonga ine,+
Mbamunyindira kunyengeza na uthambi,
Pontho musakhulupira pyenepi,+
13 Madodo anewa anadzakhala kuna imwe ninga mpanda wakuti uli na nyandza,
Ninga mpanda wakulapha wakuti wasala pangʼono toera kugwa.
Mwakukhonda dikhira, iwo unadzagwa mu ndzidzi ubodzi ene.
14 Iwo unadzasweka ninga nkhali ikulu ya nyakuumba,
Yakuti isanyedzeka-nyedzeka mbikhonda kusala na dzinga ene
Toera kupalira nayo moto,
Peno kutunga nayo madzi mu ncera.”*
15 Ipi ndipyo pidalonga Yahova, Mbuya Wankulu Kakamwe, Wakucena wa Izraeli:
“Mungabwerera kuna ine mbamupfulika, munadzapulumuswa;
Imwe munadzakhala amphambvu mungapitiriza kukhala akukhurudzika mbamundinyindira.”+
Mbwenye imwe mwakhonda pyenepi.+
16 Mʼmbuto mwa pyenepi, imwe mwalonga: “Nkhabe, ife tinakwira makavalo mbatithawa!”
Natenepa imwe mwathawa.
“Tinadzakwira makavalo akuthamanga kakamwe!”+
Na thangwi ineyi, ale anafuna kukuthamangisani anathamanga kakamwe.+
17 Anthu 1.000 anadzatetemera thangwi yakuthuswa na munthu mʼbodzi;+
Thangwi yakuthuswa na anthu axanu, imwe munadzathawa,
Mpaka ale anafuna kusala akhale ninga muti wakulapha* padzulu paphiri,
Ninga muti wa cidzindikiro pa nthunda.+
18 Mbwenye Yahova asadikhira mwakupirira* toera kukucitirani udidi,+
Pontho iye anadzalamuka toera kukubverani ntsisi.+
Thangwi Yahova ndi Mulungu waulungami.+
Anyakutsandzaya ndi onsene ale anapitiriza kunʼdikhira.*+
19 Anthu angakhala mu Sioni ku Yerusalemu,+ imwe nee munadzalirabve.+ Mungakhuwa toera kuphemba ciphedzo, mwakukhonda penula, iye anadzakubverani ntsisi; iye anadzakutawirani mu ndzidzi ubodzi ene unabva iye phembo yanu.+ 20 Maseze Yahova anadzacitisa kuti nyatwa zikhale cakudya canu, madzi anu akhale kupondererwa,+ Mpfundzisi wanu Wankulu nee anadzabisalabve, pontho imwe munadzaona na maso anu Mpfundzisi wanu Wankulu.+ 21 Imwe mungaenda kunkono wamadyo peno wabzwere,+ makutu anu anadzabva fala nduli mwanu mbilonga: “Njira ndi iyi,+ fambani munjira ineyi.”
22 Pontho madzimunthu anu akusemwa akuti akhwazwa parata na madzimunthu anu a utale akukhwazwa ouro,*+ munadzaaona kukhala akunyanyasa. Imwe munadzaataya ninga munataya nkazi cinguwo cace cakumwezi, mbamulonga: “Bulukani pano!”*+ 23 Iye anadzabvumbisira madzi mbeu zinabzwala imwe mʼmataka,+ pontho mataka anadzabala pyakudya pizinji na pyadidi.+ Pa ntsiku ineyi, pifuyo pyanu pinadzadya pa mbuto yakuti iri na thongwe izinji.+ 24 Ngʼombe na maburu akuti asalima anadzadya cakudya cadidi cakumala kubvungazwa, cakuti camala kubuluswa mapwepwa.* 25 Pontho pa ntsiku inafuna kuphiwa anthu azinji nyumba za ndzulu zingagwa, mʼmapiri onsene akulapha na nʼnthunda zonsene zikulu munadzaoneka mphuno za madzi na mikulo.+ 26 Pa ntsiku yakuti Yahova anadzapyangirira cironda ca* mbumba yace,+ mbawangisa cironda cikulu cidaaphekesa iye,+ ceza ca mwezi wakudzala cinadzakhala ninga ceza ca dzuwa; pontho ceza ca dzuwa cinadzakhala cakugaka kakamwe mʼmaulendo akupiringana manomwe+ ninga ceza ca ntsiku zinomwe.
27 Onani! Dzina ya Yahova ikubwera kubuluka kutali.
Iyo iri na ukali wakugaka, pontho yazungulirwa na mitambo yakulemera.
Mulomo wace wadzala na kuipirwa,
Pontho lirimi yace yakhala ninga moto wakufudza.+
28 Nzimu* wace ndi ninga madzi anadzala mpaka nʼkhosi,
Toera kusukusa madzindza ninga pinacita munthu pakupepeta na cisero toera kubulusa pirombo;*
Pontho iye anadzamanga mulomo+ wa mbumba zenezi na nkhambala toera kuzifambisa munjira yakuipa.
29 Mbwenye nyimbo zanu zinadzakhala ninga nyimbo zinaimbwa namasiku
Mu ndzidzi unakhunganyika imwe toera kuenda ku* phwando,+
Pontho mitima yanu inadzatsandzaya ninga pinacita munthu
Anafamba mbakaliza* fulauta
Mu ndzidzi unaenda iye kuphiri ya Yahova, wakuti ndi Mwala wa Izraeli.+
30 Yahova anadzacitisa fala yace yamphambvu+ kubveka,
Pontho anadzapangiza nkono wace+ wakuti unadzabwera na ukali ukulu,+
Pabodzi na moto wakufudza,+
32 Ndzidzi onsene unafuna Yahova kumenya Asirya
Na ndodo yace yakutcunyusa nayo,
Kunadzabveka kulira kwa pandero na arpa+
Angalamusa nkono wace toera kumenyana nawo.+
Iye acitisambo kuti mbuto yakukoyera nkhuni ikhale yakuzika na ikulu,
Muli na moto uzinji na nkhuni zizinji.
Muya wa Yahova wakuti ndi ninga gowa ya enxofre
Unadzagasa moto mwenemo.
