U-Isaya 56:1-12
56 Nanku okutshiwo nguJehova:
“Qhubekani lisahlulela kuhle+ njalo lenze okulungileyo,Ngoba insindiso yami iyeza masinyane,Lokulunga kwami kuzabonakaliswa.+
2 Uyajabula umuntu okwenzayo lokhu,Lendodana yomuntu ebambelela kukho,Egcina iSabatha ingalingcolisi,+Ebamba isandla sayo ukuze singenzi loba yini embi.
3 Umuntu wesinye isizwe osebuye kuJehova+ akumelanga athi,‘UJehova uzangehlukanisa labantu bakhe sibili.’
Lomthenwa akumelanga athi, ‘Mina ngiyisihlahla esomileyo.’”
4 Nanku okutshiwo nguJehova: “Abathenwa abagcina amasabatha ami, abakhetha ukwenza okungithokozisayo bebambelela esivumelwaneni sami,
5 Ngizabenza babe lebizo kanye lesikhumbuzo endlini yami langaphakathi kwemiduli yami,Izinto ezingcono ukwedlula amadodana lamadodakazi.
Ngizabanika ibizo elizahlala kuze kube nini lanini,Ibizo elingasoze litshabalale.
6 Labezinye izizwe ababuya kuJehova ukuze bazomkhonza,Bathande ibizo likaJehova,+Lokuthi babe zinceku zakhe,Bonke abagcina iSabatha bangalingcolisi,Ababambelela esivumelwaneni sami,
7 Labo ngizabaletha entabeni yami engcwele,+Ngibenze bathokoze endlini yami yokuthandazela.
Iminikelo yabo yokutshiswa egcweleyo lemihlatshelo yabo izakwamukelwa e-alithareni lami.
Ngoba indlu yami izabizwa ngokuthi yindlu yokuthandazela yabantu bezizwe zonke.”+
8 INkosi Enkulu uJehova, yona ebuthelela abako-Israyeli abasabaleleyo+ ithi:
“Ngizaqoqela abanye kubo ngaphandle kwalabo abavele sebeqoqiwe.”+
9 Lina lonke zinyamazana zeganga buyani lizokudla,Lonke lina zinyamazana zeganga eziseguswini.+
10 Abalindi bakhe bayiziphofu,+ kakho loyedwa onanzelelayo.+
Bonke bayizinja eziyizimungulu, ezingenelisiyo ukukhonkotha,+
Ezikhefuzela zilele phansi, ezithanda ukuwozela.
11 Bayizinja eziyizihwaba,Ezingasuthiyo.
Bangabelusi abangazwisisiyo.+
Bonke bazihambela ngendlela yabo,Ngamunye wabo uzidingela inzuzo ngobuqili athi:
12 “Wozani, kahle ngibuye lewayini,
Asibubhudleni sibusuthe utshwala.+Kusasa kuzakuba njengalamuhla kodwa kuzabe kulilanga elihle kakhulukazi!”
