Isaya 3:1-26
3 Mambo umvwai! Aye Nkambo wa kine, Yehoba wa mabumba,Ubena kufumyamo mu Yelusalema ne mu Yuda bintu byonse byo bakinkamo manungo,Kajo konse ne mema onse,+
2 Babiyangala ne babilobo,Bamitonyi ne bangauzhi,+ bañanga ba lubuko ne bakulumpe.
3 Kabiji ukafumyamo ntangi wa bantu 50,+ kinemanga ne ufundañanako,Sendwe wa bingelekezha ne upanda bwanga.+
4 Nkalengela bansongwalume kwikala babinemanga babo,Kabiji bakebalamanga ku bantu babula kushikimana bulongo.
5 Bantu bakemanyikanga bene na bene,Ne kwiyanjisha mulwabo.+
Mwanyike ukakozha mukote,Ne muntutu wabula kunema ukalengululanga muntu ye banemeka.+
6 Muntu yense ukakwata mulongo wanji mu nzubo ya bashanji ne kumwambila’mba:
“Obewa uji na munkukumba, onkao mambo ikala ntangi wetu.
Lamanga mulumba wa bintu byo baonauna.”
7 Bino pa joja juba, aye ukakana amba:
“Amiwa kechi nsakwikala wa kovwa* pa bilonda byenu ne;Kechi nji na kajo nangwa bya kuvwala mu nzubo yami ne.
Kange mungalule kwikala ntangi wa bantu ne.”
8 Mambo Yelusalema waonaika,Kabiji Yuda wakunduka,Mambo bamulenga mambo Yehoba mu byambo ne mu byubilo byabo;Bamwesha milengulwila mu kyenyi* kyanji kya lukumo.+
9 Mwekelo yabo ibazhachisha bene,Kabiji bamwesha bubi bwabo patoka byonka byaubilenga bena Sodoma;+Kechi bebufya ne.
Malwa abo, mambo babena kwiletelela bya malwa abo bene!
10 Buula bantu baoloka amba bintu bikebawamina bingi;Bakebapesha pa bintu byo boba.*+
11 Malwa anji, muntu mubi!
Bya malwa bikamufikila,Mambo byonkatu byo aubile bakwabo, naye byo byo bakamuba!
12 Pakuba bantu bami, bebengijisha ku bantu bakanama,Kabiji bebalama ku banabakazhi.
Anweba bantu bami, bantangi benu babena kwimutwala mungi,Kabiji bavulañanya mashinda enu.+
13 Yehoba waimana’mba ebazhachishe;Winengezha kuchibila mambo mitundu ya bantu.
14 Yehoba ukachibila mambo bakulumpe ne babinemanga ba bantu banji.
“Mwasoka bujimi bwa miñanzañanza,Kabiji bintu byo mwaibila bayanji biji mu mazubo enu.”+
15 Nkambo Mfumu Yehoba wa mabumba waamba’mba,“Mwikitazha mwepi byo monauna bantu bamiNe kumanyika bayanji?”+
16 Yehoba waamba’mba: “Na mambo a kuba banabakazhi ba mu Ziona belundumika,Benda saka bainuna mitwe* yabo,Saka balelubula meso abo ne kwenda na kwilemena,Benda saka bajizha makosa aji mu tupokoso twabo,
17 Yehoba naye ukalengela banabakazhi ba mu Ziona kwikala na bilonda mu mitwe yabo,Kabiji Yehoba ukebalengela kusebeka nsuki ku bilungi byabo.+
18 Pa joja juba, Yehoba ukebavuula bintu bya buya, ko kuba’mba makosa o bavwala mu tupokoso,Ne bikome byo bavwala ku mitwe ne bintutu bikwabo byawama byo bavwala ku mutwe,+
19 Mashikiyo,* makosa ne tubisapi twa kuvweta ku meso,
20 Bitambala, tuminyololo to bavwala mu tupokoso ne tubisapi twawama to bakasa pa kyaji,*Mitumwa* muji binunka bulongo ne malungo a kwishika,*
21 Tumbalaminwe ne mashikiyo a kuvwala ku moona,
22 Mikangyo, bivwalo bya peulu, minkukumba ne bikwama,
23 Tutajilo+ ne bivwalo* bya linenyi,Bisapi byo bapomba ku mitwe ne tubisapi twa kuzhika ku meso.
24 Pafwainwa kwikala bwema bwa manyi a balasama,+ pakanunkanga byabola;Pafwainwa kwikala mushipi, pakekala jiponda;Pafwainwa kwikala nsuki, pakekala mabala;+Pafwainwa kwikala kivwalo kyawama, pakekala kisapi kya majila;+Kabiji pa mubiji pawama, pakekala mukovu.
25 Bantu benu bakafwa ku mpoko,Kabiji babiyangala benu bakafwa mu nkondo.+
26 Bibelo byanji bikajila ne kuba bulanda,+Kabiji ukekala panshi ne kushala mabokotu.”+
