< Isaiah 35 >

1 The desert and the wildernes shall reioyce: and the waste ground shalbe glad and florish as the rose.
Inkangala legwadule kuzajabula ngabo; lehlane ithokoze, ikhahlele njengerosi,
2 It shall florish abundantly and shall greatly reioyce also and ioye: the glory of Lebanon shalbe giuen vnto it: the beautie of Carmel, and of Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellencie of our God.
ikhahlele kakhulu, ithokoze langentokozo lokuhlabelela. Inkazimulo yeLebhanoni izayinikwa, ubuhle beKharmeli leSharoni; khona kuzabona inkazimulo yeNkosi, ubukhosi bukaNkulunkulu wethu.
3 Strengthen the weake handes, and comfort the feeble knees.
Qinisani izandla ezibuthakathaka, liqinise amadolo axegayo.
4 Say vnto them that are fearefull, Bee you strong, feare not: beholde, your God commeth with vengeance: euen God with a recompense, he will come and saue you.
Tshonini kwabalenhliziyo ephangisayo lithi: Qinani, lingesabi. Khangelani, uNkulunkulu wenu uzakuza ngempindiselo, uNkulunkulu elomvuzo; yena uzakuza alisindise.
5 Then shall the eyes of the blinde be lightened, and the eares of the deafe be opened.
Khona amehlo eziphofu ezavuleka, lezindlebe zezacuthe zivuleke.
6 Then shall ye lame man leape as an hart, and the dumme mans tongue shall sing: for in the wildernes shall waters breake out, and riuers in ye desert.
Khona oqhulayo ezakweqa njengendluzele, lolimi lwesimungulu luhlabelele; ngoba amanzi azaqhekeza endaweni elugwadule, lezifula enkangala.
7 And the dry ground shalbe as a poole, and the thirstie (as springs of water in the habitation of dragons: where they lay) shall be a place for reedes and rushes.
Lomhlabathi otshileyo uzakuba lixhaphozi, lomhlabathi owomileyo ube yimithombo yamanzi. Endaweni yokuhlala yemigobho, endaweni yawo yokulala, kube lotshani lemihlanga lebhuma.
8 And there shalbe a path and a way, and the way shalbe called holy: the polluted shall not passe by it: for he shalbe with them, and walke in the way, and the fooles shall not erre.
Kuzakuba lomgwaqo omkhulu khona, lendlela, ezathiwa yindlela yobungcwele; ongcolileyo kayikudlula kuyo, kodwa izakuba ngeyalowo; abahambayo ngaleyondlela, loba beyizithutha, kabayikulahleka.
9 There shall be no lyon, nor noysome beastes shall ascend by it, neither shall they be found there, that the redeemed may walke.
Kakuyikuba khona isilwane lapho, lesilo esiphangayo kasiyikwenyuka phezu kwayo, kasiyikutholwa lapho; kodwa abahlengiweyo bazahamba ngayo.
10 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall returne and come to Zion with prayse: and euerlasting ioy shall bee vpon their heads: they shall obteine ioye and gladnesse, and sorow and mourning shall flee away.
Njalo abenzelwe inhlawulo yokuthula beNkosi bazabuyela, bafike eZiyoni ngengoma, belentokozo ephakade phezu kwekhanda labo; bazazuza intokozo lenjabulo, kubaleke-ke usizi lokububula.
