U-Isaya 65 Izinceku zeNkosi

¹ Ngifunwa yilabo abangangicelanga; Ngatholwa yilabo ababengangifuni; ngathi: Bheka, ngingowesizwe igama lami elingabizwanga phezu kwaso.

² Ngelulé izandla zami usuku lonke kubantu abahlubukayo, abahamba ngendlela engeyinhle, belandela imicabango yabo;

³ Abantu abangiklolodela njalo ebusweni bami; abahlabela emasimini, bashise impepho ema-altare ezitini;

⁴ ababehlala emangcwabeni, belala emangcwabeni, bedla inyama yengulube, lesobho eliyisinengiso lisezintsheni zabo;

⁵ abathi: Yima wena, ungasondeli kimi; ngokuba mina ngingcwele kunawe. Kungumusi emakhaleni ami, umlilo ovutha usuku lonke.

⁶ Bheka, kulotshiwe phambi kobuso bami ukuthi: Kangiyikuthula, kepha ngiyakubabuyisela esifubeni sabo,

⁷ Ububi benu nobubi bawoyihlo kanyekanye, usho uJehova, owathunqa umusi ezintabeni, wangihlambalaza emagqumeni; ngalokho ngiyakulinganisa umsebenzi wabo wangaphambili esifubeni sabo.

⁸ Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Njengalokhu kufunyanwa ulele ehlukuzweni, nokuthi: ‘Ungawubhubhisi; ngokuba isibusiso sikuyo; ngiyakwenza kanjalo ngenxa yezinceku zami, ukuze ngingababhubhisi bonke.

⁹ Ngiyakuveza inzalo kuJakobe, nendlalifa yezintaba zami kuJuda; nabakhethiweyo bami bayakulidla, nezinceku zami ziyakuhlala khona.

¹⁰ Futhi iSharoni iyoba yizibaya nesigodi sase-Agori sibe yindawo yezinkomo yabantu bami abangifunile.

¹¹ Kepha nina ningabashiya uJehova, nikhohlwe intaba yami engcwele, nilungisele lelo bhande itafula, ninikele ngomnikelo wokuphuzwa walelo nani.

¹² Ngakho ngizalibeka njengenkemba, njalo lizakhothama lonke phambi kokuhlatshwa; ngoba lapho ngibiza, kaliphendulanga; lapho ngikhuluma, anizwanga; kodwa ngenza okubi emehlweni ami, ngakhetha engingathokozi ngakho.

¹³ Ngalokho isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Bhekani, izinceku zami ziyakudla, kepha nina niyakulamba; bhekani, izinceku zami ziyakuphuza, kepha nina niyokoma; bhekani, izinceku zami ziyakujabula, kepha nina niyakuba namahloni.

¹⁴ Bhekani, izinceku zami ziyakuhlabelela ngokuthokoza kwenhliziyo, kepha nina niyokhala ngokudabuka kwenhliziyo, nikhale ngokudabuka komoya.

¹⁵ Kumelwe nishiye igama lenu njengesiqalekiso kwabakhethiweyo bami, ngoba iNkosi uJehova iyonibulala futhi ibize izinceku zayo ngelinye igama.

¹⁶ Ukuthi ozibusisayo emhlabeni uzakubusiswa kuNkulunkulu weqiniso; lalowo ofunga emhlabeni uzafunga uNkulunkulu weqiniso; ngoba izinhlupheko zakuqala sezikhohliwe, ngoba zisithekile emehlweni ami.

¹⁷ Ngokuba bhekani, ngiyadala amazulu amasha nomhlaba omusha, futhi okokuqala ngeke kucatshangwe noma kufike emqondweni.

¹⁸ Kodwa thokozani, lethabe kuze kube nininini ngengikudalayo;

¹⁹ Ngiyakwethaba ngeJerusalema, ngethabe ngabantu bami;

²⁰ Ngeke kusaba khona usana lwezinsuku, noma ixhegu elingakazigcwalisi izinsuku zalo; ngoba umfana uyakufa eleminyaka eyikhulu; kepha isoni esineminyaka eyikhulu siyakuqalekiswa.

²¹ Bayokwakha izindlu bahlale kuzo; bayakutshala izivini, badle izithelo zazo.

²² Abayikwakha, bahlale kwelinye; abayikutshala, badle esinye, ngokuba njengezinsuku zomuthi ziyakuba njalo izinsuku zabantu bami, nabakhethiweyo bami bayakuthokozela umsebenzi wezandla zabo.

²³ Abayikushikashikela ize, bazalele izinhlupheko; ngokuba bayinzalo yababusisiweyo bakaJehova, nenzalo yabo inabo.

²⁴ Kuyothi bengakangibizi, ngiphendule; kuthi besakhuluma, ngizwe.

²⁵ Impisi newundlu kuyakudla ndawonye, ingonyama idle utshani njengenkunzi, nothuli lube yinyama yenyoka. Aziyikwenza okubi, zingachithi kuyo yonke intaba yami engcwele,” usho uJehova.
