Isaya 8:1-22
8 Jehovha akati kwandiri: “Tora hwendefa guru+ unyore pariri nechinyoreso chinoshandiswa nevakawanda* kuti, ‘Maheri-sharari-hashi-bhazi.’*
2 Rega ndiite kuti ripupurirwe* nezvapupu zvakatendeka, mupristi Uriya+ naZekariya mwanakomana waJebherekiya.”
3 Ndakabva ndarara* nemuprofitakadzi,* uye akava nepamuviri, uye nekufamba kwenguva akasununguka mwanakomana.+ Jehovha akabva ati kwandiri: “Mutumidze kuti Maheri-sharari-hashi-bhazi,
4 nekuti mukomana wacho asati ava kugona kushevedzera kuti, ‘Baba vangu!’ uye ‘Amai vangu!’ pfuma yeDhamasiko nezvichapambwa kuSamariya zvichatakurwa pamberi pamambo weAsiriya.”+
5 Jehovha akataurazve neni achiti:
6 “Vanhu ava varamba mvura yeShiroa* inoyerera zvinyoronyoro+Uye vari kupembera nemufaro nekuda kwaRezini uye nekuda kwemwanakomana waRemariya,+
7 Saka Jehovha achaunza pavariMvura zhinji ine simba yeRwizi,*Iye mambo weAsiriya+ nembiri yake yese.
Achauya semvura inozadza rwiziYofashukira kumahombekombe arwo ese,
8 Opfuura nepakati peJudha.
Achafashamira opfuura, achisvika mumutsipa;+Mapapiro ake ayo akatambanudzwa achazadza upamhi hwenyika yako,Haiwa iwe Emanueri!”*+
9 Kuvadzai, haiwa imi marudzi, asi muchaputswa-putswa.
Teererai, imi mese munobva kunzvimbo dziri kure dzenyika!
Gadzirirai kurwa, asi muchaputswa-putswa!+
Gadzirirai kurwa, asi muchaputswa-putswa!
10 Rongai zano, asi richavhiringidzwa!
Taurai zvamunoda, asi hazvizobudiriri,Nekuti Mwari anesu!*+
11 Jehovha ataura neni ruoko rwake rune simba ruri pandiri, kuti andiyambire kuti ndirege kufamba nenzira yevanhu ava, achiti:
12 “Kunonzi nevanhu ava kupanduka, imi musakuti kupanduka!
Musatya zvavanotya;Musazvidedera.
13 Jehovha wemauto ndiye anofanira kuva mutsvene kwamuri,+Ndiye wamunofanira kutya,Uye ndiye anofanira kukudederesai.”+
14 Achava senzvimbo tsvene,Asi achavawo sedombo rekurovera paririUye seibwe rekugumbura+Kudzimba dzese mbiri dzaIsraeri,Sechiteyeso nemusungoKuvagari vemuJerusarema.
15 Vazhinji vavo vachagumburwa vowa, vokuvara;Vachateyiwa nemusungo, vobatwa.
16 Peta mashoko akanyorwa ekupupurira;Nama uvhare mutemo* pakati pevadzidzi vangu!
17 Ndicharamba ndakatarisira kuna Jehovha,*+ uyo ari kuvanzira imba yaJakobho chiso chake,+ uye ndichava netariro maari.
18 Inzwai! Ini nevana vandakapiwa naJehovha+ tiri zviratidzo+ nezvishamiso muIsraeri zvinobva kuna Jehovha wemauto, uyo anogara muGomo reZiyoni.
19 Kana vakati kwamuri: “Bvunzai masvikiro kana kuti vafemberi vanorira uye vanotaurira pasi pasi,” vanhu havafaniri kubvunza Mwari wavo here? Vanofanira kubvunza nezvevapenyu kuvakafa here?+
20 Pane kudaro, vanofanira kubvunza mutemo nemashoko akanyorwa ekupupurira!
Kana vakasataura zvinoenderana neshoko iri, havana chiedza.*+
21 Mumwe nemumwe achapfuura nemunyika yacho achinetseka chaizvo uye aine nzara;+ uye nemhaka yekuti ane nzara uye akatsamwa, achatuka mambo wake naMwari wake akatarisa kumusoro.
22 Achabva atarisa pasi, uye achangoona kutambudzika nerima chete, kusviba uye nguva dzakaoma, rima pasina chakajeka.
