Isaya 11:1-16
11 Ihlumela+ lizokukhula esidindini sakaJese+Begodu ihlumela+ elikhula emrajinakhe lizokuthela iinthelo.
2 Ummoya kaJehova uzokuhlala kuye,+Ummoya wokuhlakanipha+ newokuzwisisa,Ummoya weseluleko newamandla,+Ummoya welwazi newokusaba uJehova.
3 Uzokuthaba ngokusaba uJehova.+
Angekhe ahlulele ngokwalokho akubona ngamehlwakhe,Namkha akhalime kwaphela ngokuvumelana nalokho akuzwa ngeendlebe zakhe.+
4 Uzokwahlulela abadududu ngokulunga,Begodu uzokukhalima abantu ngebanga labathobekileko bephasi ngokulunga.
Uzokubetha iphasi ngeswazi lomlomakhe+Begodu uzokubulala abakhohlakeleko ngommoya ophuma eendebeni zakhe.+
5 Ukulunga kuzokuba libhande edinini lakhe,Nokuthembeka kuzokuba libhande leenyonga zakhe.+
6 Ipisi izokuhlala isikhatjhana nemvana,+Imbuzana izokulala phasi nengwe,Ikonyana, ibhubezi nesilwana esinonileko* zizokuba ndawonye;*+
Begodu umsanyana uzozilusa.
7 Ikomo nebhere zizokudla ndawonye,Nabantwana bazo bazokulala ndawonye.
Ibhubezi lizokudla utjani njengekunzi.+
8 Umntwana omunyako uzokudlala lapho kulala khona ikhobhra,Nomntwana olunyulisiweko uzokufaka isandla sakhe emgodini wenyoka enetjhefu.
9 Angekhe zilimaze+Namkha zibange umonakalo kiyo yoke intabami ecwengileko+Ngokuqinisekileko iphasi lizabe lizele ilwazi lakaJehovaNjengamanzi agubuzese ilwandle.+
10 Ngelangelo umrabhu kaJese+ uzokujama njengetshwayo leentjhaba.+
Iintjhaba zizokuya kuye bona zifumane isinqophiso,+Begodu indawakhe yokuphumula izokuphazimula.
11 Ngelangelo uJehova uzokwelula isandla sakhe godu kwesibili, ahlenge abantu bakhe abaseleko, abasele e-Asiriya,+ eGibhide,+ ePatrosi,+ eKutjhe,+ e-Elamu,+ eTjhinari,* eRhamathi neenhlengeleni zelwandle.+
12 Uzokuphakamisela iintjhaba itshwayo begodu abuthelele abaphadlhaleleko bakwa-Israyeli,+ uzokubuthelela ndawonye abarhatjhekileko bakwaJuda emahlangothini womane wephasi.+
13 Umona wabakwa-Efrayimu uzokuqedwa,+Nalabo abanobutha nebakwaJuda bazokuqedwa.
Bakwa-Efrayimu angeze basaba nomona ngebakwaJuda,NebakwaJuda angeze basaba nobutha ngebakwa-Efrayimu.+
14 Bazokwehlela emehlelweni yamaFilista ngetjingalanga;Bazokudlelezela abantu bePumalanga.
Bazokuhlula bakwa-Edomu+ nebakwaMowabi,+Begodu amadodana wakwa-Amoni azobathobela.+
15 UJehova uzokuhlukanisa itheku lelwandle leGibhide+Begodu uzokuphakamisa isandla sakhe phezu koMlambo.*+
Ngommoyakhe otjhisako uzokubetha imilanjanayo* elikhomba,Begodu uzokwenza abantu bakhe bayame ngamapatlagwanabo.
16 Kuzokuba nendlela ekulu+ ephuma e-Asiriya yabantu bakhe abaseleko,+Njengombana bekunjalo ngabantu bakwa-Israyeli ngelanga abaphuma ngalo enarheni yeGibhide.
