Isaya 16 - Siswati 1996 Bible

¹ Tfumelani emazinyane etimvu lesuka eSela, ngasehlane, aye entsabeni yeNdvodzakati yaseSiyoni, abe setfulo enkhosini yelive.

² Njengetinyoni letizulazulako nangabe tikhishwa etidlekeni, bayawuba njalo-ke nebafati bakaMowabi ematubukweni ase-Anoni.

³ Batsi kubakaJuda: “Sinikeni seluleko, nisentele sincumo. Nisisibekele ngesitfunti senu sibe njengebusuku emini, kala bha. Fihlani labo lababalekile, ningatsengisi ngalababalekele kini.

⁴ Hlalani nabo lababaleke kulakaMowabi, nibe sivikelo sabo kumbulali.” Umcindzeteli utawuphela, bese iyema imbhubhiso; umuntfu welutfutfuva utawunyamalala eveni;

⁵ bese sihlalo sebukhosi sima ngelutsandvo; nangekwetsembeka kuyawuhlala umuntfu kuso, umuntfu loyawuvela endlini yakaDavide, umehluleli loyakwehlulela ngekungakhetsi, ayisheshisise indlela yekulunga.

⁶ Sivile ngekutiphakamisa kwebakaMowabi, nangekuchosha kwabo lokukhulu nekutigcabha kwabo, nangekutigabatisa kwabo, nekucolosha kwabo; noko kutishaya sifuba kwabo kulite.

⁷ Ngako-ke emaMowabi ayawutikhalela; ayawulila ndzawonye ngelakaMowabi. Lilani nidzabuke ngenca yemakhekhe emagelebisi lomisiwe langasatfolakali eKhiri Heresi.

⁸ Emasimi aseHeshboni ayabuna, nemivini yaseSibima iyoma. Babusi betive babehlulwa liwayini lemivini yelikhetselo. Yebo, imivini leyake yenabela naseJaseri, yadzimate yefika nasehlane, yenaba yaze yayawufika naselwandle.

⁹ Ngako ngiyakhala, njengobe kukhala iJaseri, ngikhalela imivini yaseSibima. Awu! Heshboni, nawe Eleyale, nginenye etinyembetini! Kumemeta kwenjabulo ngetitselo tenu lesetivutsiwe kuthulisiwe, kwabindziswa nenjabulo ngetivuno tenu.

¹⁰ Injabulo nekutsakasa kususiwe emahlatsini etitselo lahlanyelwe; kute namunye losahlabela amemete etivinini, sekute losahluta liwayini ematjeni ekulihluta, ngobe ngikucedzile kumemeta.

¹¹ Inhlitiyo yami ililela iMowabi, ikhala njengelihabhu, lingekhatsi lami lilila ngeKhiri Heresi.

¹² Ngesikhatsi bakaMowabi babonakala endzaweni yabo lephakeme bavele batigugise bona nje; ngesikhatsi bayewukhuleka kuletithico tabo, abasasitakali ngalutfo.

¹³ Leli livi Simakadze lasavele alikhulumile macondzana nebakaMowabi.

¹⁴ Kodvwa nyalo Simakadze utsi: “Njengesisebenti lesenta sivumelwane seminyaka lemitsatfu nemcashi waso, balisisa kahle emalanga, ngobe ekugcineni kwaleso sikhatsi ludvumo lwakaMowabi luyawuba lihlazo, nalabo labayawube basele bayawuba mbalwa kakhulu futsi nabo bawombile.”
