U-Isaya 25:1-12
25 Awu Jehova, wena unguNkulunkulu wami.
Ngiyakuphakamisa njalo ngiyalidumisa ibizo lakho,Ngoba wenze izinto ezinhle kakhulu,+Izinto owawuhlose ukuzenza kusukela ezikhathini zasendulo,+Ngokuthembeka+ langobuqotho.
2 Wenze idolobho laba yinqwaba yamatshe,Wenza idolobho elivikelweyo laba lunxiwa.
Umphotshongo wabezizweni kawuseyilo idolobho,Njalo kalisoze liphinde lakhiwe.
3 Yikho abantu abalamandla bezakunika udumo,Idolobho lezizwe ezilolunya lizakwesaba.+
4 Ngoba usube yinqaba yomuntukazana,Inqaba yomyanga ekuhluphekeni kwakhe,+Isiphephelo sokucatshela izulu elina ngamandla,Lomthunzi wokucatshela ukutshisa.+
Lapho ulaka oluvuthayo lwabalesihluku lunjengesiphepho esitshaya emdulini,
5 Lanjengokutshisa elizweni elomileyo,Uyakuqeda ukuxokozela kwabantu bezizweni.
Ingoma yabalesihluku iyathuliswa,Njengokutshisa okuvalwa ngumthunzi weyezi.
6 Entabeni le+ uJehova wamabutho uzakwenzela abantu bonkeIdili elilezibiliboco,+Idili elilewayini elimnandi,Lokudla okuhlabusayo okulenyama enonileyo,*Lewayini elimnandi elicengekileyo.
7 Entabeni le yena uzasusa* isembeso esimboze bonke abantu,Asuse ilembu* eligubuzele izizwe zonke.
8 Uzakuqeda* ukufa kungasaphindi kube khona,+INkosi Enkulu uJehova izakwesula izinyembezi ebusweni babantu bonke.+
Izasusa ihlazo elisebantwini bayo kuwo wonke umhlaba,Ngoba uJehova ngokwakhe usekhulumile.
9 Ngalelolanga bazakuthi:
“Lo nguye uNkulunkulu wethu!+
Sithembele kuye,+Uzasisindisa.+
Lo nguJehova!
Sithembele kuye.
Kasithokozeni sijabule ngenxa yensindiso yakhe.”+
10 Isandla sikaJehova sizakuba phezu kwentaba le,+IMowabi izanyathelwa isendaweni yayo+Njengotshani obomileyo obunyathelelwa enqumbini yomquba.
11 Uzakwelula isandla sakhe ayitshaye iMowabiNjengomuntu obhukutshayo otshaya amanzi ngezandla zakhe.
Uzakuqeda ukuziphakamisa kwayo+Ngezandla zakhe ezilobungcitshi.
12 UzalidilizaIdolobho elivikelwe ngemiduli yakho* emide,
Uzaliwisela phansi, khona kanye ethulini.
