Isaiah 27
Ukukhululwa Kuka-Israyeli
1Ngalolosuku,uThixo uzajezisa ngenkemba yakhe,
inkemba yakhe eyesabekayo, enkulu njalo elamandla,
uLeviyathani inyoka endizayo,
uLeviyathini inyoka egoqanayo;
uzayibulala inunu yasolwandle.
2Ngalolosuku:
“Hlabelani ngesivini esithela izithelo.
3Mina Thixo, ngiyasilinda;
ngiyasithelezela kokuphela.
Ngisilinda emini lebusuku
ukuze kungabikhona owenza okubi kuso.
4Angithukuthelanga.
Sengathi kungabe kulokhula lameva okumelana lami!
Bengizakulanda ngilwe lakho empini;
bengizakutshisa konke ngomlilo.
5Loba phela kabeze bazephephela kimi;
kabenze ukuthula lami,
yebo, kabenze ukuthula lami.”
6Ensukwini ezizayo uJakhobe uzagxila,
u-Israyeli uzahluma akhahlele
agcwalise umhlaba wonke ngezithelo.
7 UThixo usemtshayile na
njengokutshaya kwakhe abamtshayayo?
Usebulewe na
njengokubulawa kwalabo abambulalayo?
8Ngempi langokumxotsha elizweni ulwe laye,
ngesiphepho sakhe esesabekayo umsusela phandle,
njengamhla kuvunguza umoya wasempumalanga.
9Ngalokhu-ke ukona kukaJakhobe kuzahlawulelwa,
njalo lokhu kuzakuba yisithelo esigcweleyo
esokususwa kwesono sakhe:
Lapho esenza wonke amatshe e-alithare
abe njengamatshe ekalaga avuthuzwe izicucu,
akulazinsika zika-Ashera kumbe ama-alithare empepha
azatshiywa emi.
10Idolobho elivikelweyo libhidlikile,
indawo yokuhlala etshiyiweyo, yadelwa njengenkangala;
lapho asesidla khona amathole
lapho alala khona phansi;
aphundla ingatsha zalo zisale zize.
11Lapho ingatsha zalo sezomile, ziyephulwa
kuze abesifazane babase umlilo ngazo.
Ngoba laba ngabantu abangelakuzwisisa;
ngakho uMenzi wabo kalasihawu kubo,
loMdali wabo akayikuba lomusa kubo.
12Ngalolosuku uThixo uzabhula kusukela kuYufrathe ogelezayo kusiya eMhotsheni waseGibhithe, njalo lina abako-Israyeli lizabuthwa munye ngamunye. 13Njalo ngalolusuku kuzakhaliswa icilongo elikhulu. Labo ababelahlekele elizweni lase-Asiriya lababexotshelwe elizweni laseGibhithe bazabuya bakhonze uThixo phezu kwentaba engcwele eJerusalema.
