Chiweruzo ndi Chipulumutso
1“Ndinali wokonzeka kumva mapemphero a amene sankandipempha kanthu;
ndipo ndinalola kuti anthu amene ankandifunafuna kuti andipeze.
Kwa mtundu wa anthu umene sunkapempha chithandizo kwa Ine,
ndinati, ‘Ine ndili pano, Ine ndili pano.’
2Tsiku lonse ndatambasulira manja anga
anthu owukira aja,
amene amachita zoyipa,
natsatira zokhumba zawo.
3Ndatambasulira manja anga anthu aja amene nthawi zonse amandikwiyitsa
mopanda manyazi.
Iwo amapereka nsembe mʼminda
ndi kufukiza lubani pa maguwa ansembe a njerwa.
4Amakatandala ku manda
ndipo amakachezera usiku wonse kumalo obisika.
Amadya nyama ya nkhumba,
ndipo mʼmiphika mwawo muli msunzi wa nyama yodetsedwa.
5Amawuza ena kuti, ‘Khala patali usandiyandikire,
chifukwa ungatengere kupatulika kwanga!’
Ukali wanga pa anthu otere uli ngati utsi mphuno zanga,
ngati moto umene umayaka tsiku lonse.
6“Taonani, ndatsimikiza kale mlandu ndi chilango chawo;
sindidzakhala chete koma ndidzawalanga kwathunthu
chifukwa cha machimo awo
7ndi a makolo awo,”
akutero Yehova.
“Chifukwa anapereka nsembe zopsereza pa mapiri
ndi kundinyoza Ine pa zitunda zawo,
Ine ndidzawalanga kwathunthu potsata
zimene anachita kale.”
8Yehova akuti,
“Pamene madzi akanapezeka mu phava la mphesa
ndipo anthu amati, ‘Musawononge phavalo,
popeza madzi ena abwino akanalimobe mʼphavalo,’
Inenso chifukwa cha mtumiki wanga;
sindidzawononga onse.
9Ndidzatulutsa zidzukulu mʼbanja la Yakobo,
ndipo a banja la Yuda adzalandira mapiri anga ngati cholowa chawo.
Anthu anga osankhidwa adzalandira zimenezi,
ndipo atumiki anga adzakhala kumeneko.
10Chigwa cha Saroni chidzakhala kodyetserako nkhosa,
ndipo chigwa cha Akori chidzakhala malo opumirako ngʼombe
kwa anthu anga ondifunafuna Ine.
11“Koma inu amene mumasiya Yehova
ndi kuyiwala phiri langa lopatulika,
amene munamukonzera Gadi chakudya
ndi kuthirira Meni chakumwa,
12ndidzakuperekani ku lupanga ngati nsembe,
ndipo nonse mudzaphedwa;
chifukwa simunayankhe pamene ndinakuyitanani,
ndinayankhula koma simunamvere.
Munachita zoyipa pamaso panga
ndipo munasankha kuchita zoyipa zomwe sindikondwera nazo.”
13Nʼchifukwa chake Ambuye Yehova akuti,
“Atumiki anga adzadya,
koma inu mudzakhala ndi njala;
atumiki anga adzamwa,
koma inu mudzakhala ndi ludzu;
atumiki anga adzakondwa,
koma inu mudzakhala ndi manyazi.
14Atumiki anga adzayimba
mosangalala,
koma inu mudzalira kwambiri
chifukwa chovutika mu mtima
ndipo mudzalira mofuwula chifukwa mudzamva kuwawa mu mtima.
15Anthu anga osankhidwa
adzatchula dzina lanu potemberera.
Ambuye Yehova adzakuphani,
koma atumiki ake adzawapatsa dzina lina.
16Aliyense wopempha dalitso mʼdzikomo
adzachita zimenezo kwa Mulungu woona;
ndipo aliyense wochita malumbiro mʼdzikomo
adzalumbira mwa Mulungu woona.
Pakuti mavuto akale adzayiwalika
ndipo adzachotsedwa pamaso panga.
Chilengedwe Chatsopano
17“Taonani, ndikulenga
mlengalenga mwatsopano ndi dziko lapansi latsopano.
Zinthu zakale sizidzakumbukika,
zidzayiwalika kotheratu.
18Koma inu mukhale osangalala ndi okondwa mpaka muyaya
chifukwa cha zimene ndikulenga,
pakuti ndikulenga Yerusalemu kukhala malo wosangalatsa
ndipo anthu ake adzakhala achimwemwe.
19Ine ndidzakondwa chifuwa cha Yerusalemu
ndipo ndidzasangalala chifukwa cha anthu anga.
Kumeneko sikudzamvekanso kulira
ndi mfuwu wodandaula.
20“Ana sadzafa ali akhanda
ndipo nkhalamba zonse zidzakwaniritsa zaka zawo zonse.
Wamngʼono mwa iwo
adzafa ali ndi zaka 100.
Amene adzalephere kufika zaka 100
adzatengedwa kukhala
wotembereredwa.
21Anthu adzamanga nyumba ndi kukhalamo,
adzadzala mpesa ndipo adzadya zipatso zake.
22Sadzamanganso nyumba anthu ena nʼkukhalamo,
kapena kudzala ndi ena nʼkudya.
Pakuti anthu anga adzakhala ndi moyo
wautali ngati mitengo.
Osankhidwa anga adzakondwera ndi ntchito
ya manja awo nthawi yayitali.
23Sadzagwira ntchito pachabe
kapena kubereka ana kuti aone tsoka;
chifukwa adzakhala anthu odalitsidwa ndi Yehova,
iwowo pamodzi ndi adzukulu awo omwe.
24Ndidzawayankha ngakhale asanathe nʼkupempha komwe.
Pamene akuyankhula kumene Ine ndidzakhala nditamva kale.
25Mʼmbulu ndi mwana wankhosa wamkazi zidzadyera pamodzi.
Mkango udzadya udzu monga ngʼombe,
koma fumbi ndiye chidzakhale chakudya cha njoka.
Pa phiri langa lopatulika sipadzakhala
chinthu chopweteka kapena chowononga,”
akutero Yehova.
1I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. 2I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts; 3A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;65.3 upon…: Heb. upon bricks 4Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;65.4 broth: or, pieces 5Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.65.5 nose: or, anger 6Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom, 7Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8¶ Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes, that I may not destroy them all. 9And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. 10And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
11¶ But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.65.11 troop: or, Gad65.11 number: or, Meni, a pagan god 12Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not. 13Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: 14Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.65.14 vexation: Heb. breaking 15And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name: 16That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
17¶ For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.65.17 come…: Heb. come upon the heart 18But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. 19And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. 20There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. 21And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. 22They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.65.22 shall long…: Heb. shall make them continue long, or, shall wear out 23They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them. 24And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. 25The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
