Isaiah 26
Ingoma Yokubonga
1Ngalolosuku ingoma le izahlatshelwa elizweni lakoJuda:Siledolobho eliqinileyo;
uNkulunkulu wenza ukusindisa
kube yimiduli yalo lezivikelo.
2Vulani amasango
ukuze isizwe esilungileyo singene,
isizwe esigcina ukuthembeka.
3Lizamemeza abe lokuthula okupheleleyo
lowo olengqondo ebambelelayo,
ngoba wethemba kuwe.
4Thembani uThixo kokuphela,
ngoba uThixo, uThixo ngokwakhe, uliDwala laphakade.
5Ubehlisela phansi abahlala engqongeni;
ulehlisela phansi idolobho eliphakemeyo,
ulidilizela emhlabathini,
aliphosele phansi othulini.
6Inyawo zilinyathelela phansi,
inyawo zabancindezelweyo,
amanyathelo abayanga.
7Indlela yabalungileyo iqondile;
awu wena oQotho,
wenza indlela yabalungileyo ibe butshelezi.
8Yebo, Thixo, sihamba endleleni yemithetho yakho,
siyakulindela;
ibizo lakho lodumo lwakho
kulangathelelwa zinhliziyo zethu.
9Umphefumulo wami uyakulangazelela ebusuku,
ekuseni umoya wami uyakukhumbula.
Lapho ukwahlulela kwakho kufika emhlabeni,
abantu basemhlabeni bayakufunda ukulunga.
10Lanxa ababi betshengiswa umusa,
kabakufundi ukulunga;
laselizweni lokulunga baqhubeka besenza okubi,
bengabunaki ubukhosi bukaThixo.
11Oh Thixo, isandla sakho siphakanyiselwe phezulu,
kodwa kabasiboni.
Babonise ukutshisekela kwakho abantu bakho bayangiswe;
umlilo olungiselwe izitha zakho kawubaqede.
12 Thixo, usilethela ukuthula;
konke esesikufezile sikwenzelwe nguwe.
13Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wethu, amanye amakhosi ngaphandle kwakho ake asibusa,
kodwa ibizo lakho yilo lodwa esilidumisayo.
14Khathesi asafa, kawasaphili;
imimoya leyana eyahambayo kayivuki.
Wawajezisa, wawatshabalalisa;
wesula konke ukukhunjulwa kwawo.
15Usandisile isizwe, Oh Thixo;
usandisile isizwe.
Uzilethele udumo;
uyiqhelisile yonke imikhawulo yelizwe.
16 Thixo, beza kuwe ekuhluphekeni kwabo;
kwathi lapho usubajezisile
banelisa ukunyenyeza umkhuleko.
17Njengowesifazane okhulelweyo lapho esezabeletha
uyabhinqika ekhaliswa yibuhlungu,
lathi sabanjalo phambi kwakho, Oh Thixo.
18Sasikhulelwe, sabhinqika ebuhlungwini,
kodwa sazala umoya.
Kasilethanga nsindiso emhlabeni;
kasibazalelanga lutho abantu basemhlabeni.
19Kodwa abafileyo bakho bazaphila Thixo,
imizimba yabo izavuka.
Lina elihlala othulini,
vukani lihlabelele ngentokozo.
Amazolo enu afana lamazolo ekuseni;
umhlaba uzabaveza abafileyo bawo.
20Hambani bantu bami, ngenani ezindlini zenu,
lizivalele phakathi;
lizifihle okwesikhatshana
ulaka lwakhe luze luphele.
21Khangelani, uThixo uyaphuma lapho ahlala khona
ukuba ajezise abantu basemhlabeni ngenxa yezono zabo.
Umhlaba uzaveza igazi elachithwa kuwo;
kawusayikubafihla ababulawayo bawo.
