U-Isaya 7
INkosi ikhuluma no-Isaya
1Ezinsukwini zika-Ahazi indodana kaJothamu ka-Uziya inkosi yakwaJuda uResini inkosi yase-Aramu noPheka indodana kaRemaliya inkosi yakwa-Israyeli benyukela eJerusalema ukulwa nalo, kodwa akakwazanga ukukunqoba.
2Kwabikelwa indlu kaDavide, kwathiwa: “I-Aramu ihlangene no-Efrayimi.” Inhliziyo yakhe yanyakaziswa, nenhliziyo yabantu bakhe njengemithi yehlathi inyakaziswa ngumoya.
3Wayesethi uJehova ku-Isaya: “Hamba manje umhlangabeze u-Ahazi, wena noSheyari-jasub indodana yakho, ekugcineni komsele wedamu lasenhla, endleleni yasensimini yomhlanzi wezingubo;
4Wathi kuye: “Nakekela, uthule; ningesabi, ningadangali ngenxa yemisila yomibili yale mililo ethunqayo, ngenxa yolaka lukaResini phezu kwe-Aramu nendodana kaRemaliya.
5Ngokuba ama-Aramu, no-Efrayimi, nendodana kaRemaliya, babenecebo elibi ngani, bethi:
6Masikhuphuke silwe noJuda, simxabanise, sisenzele ukufohla, sibeke inkosi phakathi kwakhe, indodana kaThabehali.
7Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Kakuyikuba khona, njalo kakuyikwenzeka.
8Ngokuba inhloko yama-Aramu yiDamaseku, nenhloko yeDamaseku nguResini; phakathi kweminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha nanhlanu u-Efrayimi uyakwaphulwa angabi yisizwe.
9Inhloko ka-Efrayimi yiSamariya, nenhloko yeSamariya yindodana kaRemaliya. Uma ningakholwa, anisoze naqinisekiswa.
10UJehova waphinda wakhuluma ku-Ahazi, wathi:
11Cela isibonakaliso kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho; buza ekujuleni loba ekuphakameni phezulu.
12Kepha u-Ahazi wathi: “Angiyikucela, futhi angiyikumlinga uJehova.”
13Wasesithi: Lalela, wena ndlu kaDavida! Kuyinto encane kini ukukhathaza abantu, kodwa nizokhathala noNkulunkulu wami?
14Ngakho-ke iNkosi uqobo izakunika isibonakaliso; Bheka, intombi iyakukhulelwa, izale indodana, iyibize ngokuthi u-Imanuweli.
15Kufanele adle ibhotela noju lwezinyosi, ukuze akwazi ukwala okubi akhethe okuhle.
16Ngoba ngaphambi kokuba umfana akwazi ukwala okubi futhi akhethe okuhle, izwe elizondayo liyoshiywa amakhosi alo amabili.
17UJehova uyakwehlisela phezu kwakho nakubantu bakho naphezu kwendlu kayihlo izinsuku ezingazange zibe khona kusukela osukwini u-Efrayimi asuka ngalo kwaJuda; inkosi yase-Asiriya.
18Ngalolo suku uJehova uyakushaya ikhwelo phezu kwempukane esekupheleni kwemifula yaseGibhithe naphezu kwezinyosi ezisezweni lase-Asiriya.
19Ziyofika ziphumule zonke ezigodini eziyincithakalo nasemigodini yamadwala naphezu kwawo wonke ameva naphezu kwazo zonke izihlahla.
20Ngalolo suku uJehova uyakuphuca ikhanda nezinwele zezinyawo ngempuco eqashwe yibo ngaphesheya koMfula iNayile ngesandla senkosi yase-Asiriya, futhi iyoqeda nentshebe.
21Ngalolosuku umuntu uyakwelusa ithokazi nezimvu ezimbili;
22Futhi ngenxa yobisi oluningi abalunikezayo, uyodla ibhotela; ngokuba bonke abasala ezweni bayakudla ibhotela nezinyosi.
23Ngalolo suku yonke indawo lapho kwakukhona imivini eyinkulungwane ngezinhlamvu zesiliva eziyinkulungwane, iyoba ngeyekhakhasi nameva.
24Abantu bayofika lapho bephethe iminsalo nemicibisholo; ngokuba izwe lonke liyakuba yikhakhasi nameva.
25Kuwo wonke amagquma ayogezwa ngenduku akuyikubakho ukwesatshwa kwamakhakhasi nameva, kepha kuyakuba ngelokuxosha izinkomo nokunyathela imfuyo encane.
