UNkulunkulu ukhuza isizwe sakoJuda esonayo
1Umbono kaIsayaa indodana kaAmozi, awubona ngoJuda leJerusalema, ensukwinib zaboUziyac, uJothamud, uAhazie, uHezekhiyaf, amakhosi akoJuda.
2 Zwaninig, mazulu, ubeke indlebeh, mhlaba, ngoba iNkosi isikhulumile, yathi: Ngondlile ngakhulisa abantwanai, kodwa bona bangivukele. 3 Inkabi iyamazi umniniyoj, lobabhemi umkolok womnikazi wakhe; kodwa uIsrayeli kazilm, abantu bami kabaqedisisin. 4 Hawu, isizwe esonayo, abantu abasindwa yibubi, inzaloo yabenzi bobubi, abantwana abonakalisayo! Bayitshiyile iNkosi, bamdelelep oNgcwele kaIsrayeli, bahlehlele nyovane.
5 Lizatshayelwaniq futhi? Belizaqhubeka livukela; ikhanda lonke liyagula, lenhliziyo yonke ibuthakathaka. 6 Kusukela kungaphansi yonyawo kuze kufike ekhanda kakulandawo ephilileyor kukho, kodwa izilondas lemivimvinyatu lamanxebav ophayo; kakukhanywanga, kakubotshwanga, kakuthanjiswanga ngamafuthaw. 7 Ilizwex lakini liyincithakalo, imizi yenu itshiswe ngomlilo, umhlaba wenu abezizwe bawudla phambi kwenu, njaloy kulencithakalo, njengokugenqulwa ngabemzini. 8 Indodakazi yeZiyoni isele-kez njengedumba esivinini, njengengalanea ensiminib yamakhomane, njengomuzi ovinjezelweyo. 9 Ubac iNkosi yamabandla ibingasitshiyelangad insali eyingcosana, besizakuba njengeSodomae, sifanane leGomoraf.
10 Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, babusig beSodomah, libeke indlebe kumlayo kaNkulunkulu wethu, bantu beGomora. 11 Buyini kimi ubunengi bemihlatshelo yenu? itsho iNkosii. Ngenelisiwe yiminikelo yokutshiswa yezinqama langamahwahwa okunonisiweyo; legazi lamajongosi lelamawundlu lelezimpongo kangithokozi ngalo. 12 Lapho lisizabonakala phambi kwamij, ngubani obize lokhu esandleni senuk, ukugxoba amaguma amil? 13 Lingabe lisaletha umnikelo oyize; impepha iyisinengiso kimi; ukuthwasa kwenyangamn, lesabathao, ukubizwa kwenhlangano, ngingekumelep; kuyisiphambeko, ngitsho umhlangano onzuluq. 14 Umphefumulo wami uyakuzonda ukuthwasa kwezinyangar zenu lemikhosi yenu emisiweyos; kungumthwalo kimit, sengikhathele yikukuthwalau. 15 Lalapho liselula izandla zenuv ngizalifihlela amehlo amiw; njalo nxa lisandisa umkhuleko kangiyikuzwa; izandla zenu zigcwele igazix.
16 Gezani, lizihlambululey; susani ububi bezenzo zenu phambi kwamehlo ami; yekelani ukwenza okubiz; 17 fundani ukwenza okuhle; dingani isahluleloab; sizani ocindezelweyo; yehlulelanic intandaned; melani umfelokazie.
18 Wozani khathesi, siqondisanef, itsho iNkosi; loba izono zenu zinjengokubomvu gebhu, zizakuba mhlophe njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyog; loba zibomvu njengokubomvu kakhulu, zizakuba njengoboya bezimvu. 19 Uba livuma lilalela, lizakudla okuhle kwelizwe; 20 kodwa uba lisala libe lenkani, lizadliwa yinkemba; ngoba umlomo weNkosi ukhulumileh.
Ukwahlulelwa lokukhululwa kweZiyoni
21 Yeka, umuzi othembekileyo usube liwule!i Wawugcwele isahlulelo, ukulunga kwakuhlezi kuwo, kodwa khathesi ababulali. 22 Isiliva sakho sesibe ngamanyelej; iwayini lakho laxubana lamanzik. 23 Iziphathamandla zakho zingabahlamukil labangane bamaselam; ngulowo lalowo uthanda isiphon, azingele izivalamlomo; kazehluleli izintandaneo, lendaba yomfelokazi kayifiki kuzo.
24 Ngakho itsho iNkosi, iNkosi yamabandlap, oLamandla wakoIsrayeliq: E, ngizaziduduza ngezitha zamir, ngiziphindisele kwabamelana lamis. 25 Ngizabuyisela isandla sami phezu kwakhot, ngicwengisise amanyele akho, ngisuseu yonke ingcekeza yokucwengwa kwakhov. 26 Ngizabuyisela abahluleli bakho njengekuqaleniw, labeluleki bakho njengakuqala; emva kwalokho ubizwe ngokuthi ngumuzi wokulunga, umuzi othembekileyox. 27 IZiyoni izahlengwa ngesahlulelo, labaphendukayo bayo ngokulunga. 28 Lokwephulwa kwabaphambukiyz lokwezoni kuzakuba kanyekanye, labadela iNkosi baqedwea. 29 Ngoba bazakuba lenhloni ngezihlahla zama-okhi*b elaliziloyisa, liyangeke ngezivande elizikhethileyoc. 30 Ngoba lizakuba njengesihlahla se-okhi omahlamvu aso ayabunad, lanjengesivande esingelamanzie. 31 Njalo olamandla uzakuba lifilakisi eliyizibif, lomenzi walo abe yinhlansi; njalo kuzakutsha kokubili kanyekanyeg, kungabi khona ocitshayo.
