U-Isaya 42
Inceku ezoletha ukwahlulelwa kwabezizwe
1Bheka, inceku yami engiyisekelayo; abakhethiweyo bami othokoza ngabo umphefumulo wami; ngibekile uMoya wami phezu kwakhe: uyakuletha ukwahlulela kwabezizwe.
2Akayikukhala noma aphakamise, nezwi lakhe alizwakali ezitaladini.
3Umhlanga owaphukileyo ngeke awuphule nefilakisi elithunqayo ngeke alicime;
4Akayikuphelelwa amandla, noma aphele amandla, aze akhiphe isahlulelo emhlabeni; neziqhingi ziyolindela umthetho wakhe.
5Usho kanje uNkulunkulu uJehova, owadala, oweneka izulu; owendlala umhlaba nokuphuma kuwo; onika abantu abakulo ukuphefumula, nabahamba kulo umoya;
6Mina, Jehova, ngikubizile ngokulunga, ngiyakubamba isandla sakho, ngikugcine, ngikubeke ube yisivumelwano sezizwe, ube ngukukhanya kwabezizwe;
7ukuze uvule amehlo ezimpumputhe, ukhiphe iziboshwa etilongweni nabahlezi ebumnyameni etilongweni.
8NginguJehova, yilo igama lami; angiyikunika omunye udumo lwami, nezithombe ezibaziweyo udumo lwami.
9Bhekani, izinto zakuqala sezifikile, ngimemezela izinto ezintsha; ngaphambi kokuba kuhlume, ngiyakutshela ngakho.
10Hlabelelani kuJehova ihubo elisha nodumo lwakhe kusukela emikhawulweni yomhlaba, nina enehlela elwandle nakho konke okukulo; iziqhingi nabakhileyo kuzo.
11Ihlane nemizi yalo makuliphakamise izwi lako, imizi lapho iKedari ihlezi; abakhileyo edwaleni mabahube, bajabule esiqongweni sezintaba.
12Mabamdumise uJehova, bamemezele udumo lwakhe eziqhingini.
13UJehova uyakuphuma njengeqhawe, avuse ukushisekela njengeqhawe; Uyakubiza, yebo, abhonge; uyakunqoba izitha zakhe.
14Ngathula isikhathi eside; Ngathula ngazibamba; manje ngizokhala njengowesifazane onentshebe; ngiyakubhubhisa masinyane, ngishwabadele.
15Ngiyakuchitha izintaba namagquma, ngomise zonke izitshalo zakho; ngiyakwenza imifula ibe yiziqhingi, ngomise namachibi.
16Ngizahambisa izimpumputhe ngendlela ezingayaziyo; ngizabahola ngezindlela abangazaziyo; ngiyokwenza kube lula ubumnyama phambi kwabo, ngiqondise izinto eziyisigwegwe. Lezi zinto ngiyakuzenza kubo, ngingabashiyi.
17Bazabuyiselwa emuva, bajabhe kakhulu abathembela ezithombeni ezibaziweyo, abathi ezithombeni ezibunjiweyo: Lingonkulunkulu bethu.
18Lalelani nina abayizithulu! bhekani, zimpumputhe, ukuze nibone.
19Ngubani oyimpumputhe ngaphandle kwenceku yami na? noma isithulu, njengesithunywa sami engisithumayo? Ngubani oyimpumputhe njengopheleleyo, oyimpumputhe njengenceku kaJehova na?
20nibona izinto eziningi, kepha aninaki; avule izindlebe zakhe, kodwa akezwa.
21UJehova uyathokoza ngokulunga kwakhe; uyakuwukhulisa umthetho, awenze uhlonipheke.
22Kepha lesi yisizwe esiphangiwe nesiphangiwe; bonke babhajwe emigodini, bafihlwe ematilongweni; bayimpango, akakho osindisayo; ngempango, akakho othi: ‘Ungabuyi.’
23Ngubani kini oyakulalela lokhu na? ngubani oyakulalela, ezwe esikhathini esizayo na?
24Ngubani owanikela uJakobe kube yimpango, no-Israyeli kubaphangi? Akusiye uJehova esone kuye na? ngoba abazange bahambe ezindleleni zakhe futhi abawulalelanga umthetho wakhe.
25Ngakho wathululela phezu kwakhe ukuvutha kolaka lwakhe namandla empi, kwamthungela inhlangothi zonke, kodwa yena engakwazi; wamshisa, kepha akakubekanga enhliziyweni.
