¹In that day Jehovah, with his sore and great and strong sword, will visit leviathan the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he will slay the monster that is in the sea.

¹Nezuva iro Jehovha acharova nomunondo wake mukukutu, mukuru, noune simba, revhiatani, iyo nyoka inokurumidza, iyo, nyoka yakagonyana; achauraya chikara chiri mugungwa.

²In that day [there shall be] a vineyard of pure wine; sing concerning it:

²Nezuva iro vachaimba vachiti, Munda wemizambiringa, chiuimbirai!

³I Jehovah keep it, I will water it every moment; lest any harm it, I will keep it night and day.

³Ini Jehovha ndini muchengeti wawo; ndichaudiridza nguva imwe neimwe; ndichauchengeta masikati nousiku, kuti urege kutadzirwa nomunhu.

⁴Fury is not in me. Oh that I had briars [and] thorns in battle against me! I would march against them, I would burn them together.

⁴Ini handina hasha; dai rukato nemhinzwa zvairwa neni! Ndaizvivamba, ndaizvipisa pamwechete.

⁵Or let him take hold of my strength; let him make peace with me: [yea,] let him make peace with me.

⁵Kana asingadaro, ngaabate simba rangu, ayanane neni, ngaayanane neni.

⁶In the future Jacob shall take root; Israel shall blossom and bud, and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.

⁶Namazuva anouya Jakove achamera midzi; Isiraeri achatunga maruva nokutumbuka; vachazadza nyika yose nezvibereko.

⁷Hath he smitten him according to the smiting of those that smote him? Is he slain according to the slaughter of those slain by him?

⁷Ko akavarova iye sezvaakarova avo vakavarova here? Ko vakaurawa nokuurawa kwaivo vakaurawa navo here?

⁸In measure, when sending her away, didst thou contend with her: he hath taken [her] away with his rough wind in the day of the east wind.

⁸Pakuvadzinga kwenyu makarwa navo nechiyero chakafanira; wakavabvisa nemhepo yake ine simba nezuva remhepo yokumabvazuva.

⁹By this, therefore, shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit of the taking away of his sin: when he shall make all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are crumbled in pieces, -- the Asherahs and the sun-images shall not stand.

⁹Saka nenzira iyi zvakaipa zvaJakove zvichadzikunurwa; izvi ndizvo zvibereko zvose zvokubviswa kwezvivi zvake, kana achiita mabwe ose earitari ave samabwe omunyaka akaputswa-putswa, kuti miti yakatsaurwa nemifananidzo yezuva zvirege kuzomiswa.

¹⁰For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken like a wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume its boughs.

¹⁰nekuti guta, rakakombwa norusvingo, rasiiwa riri roga, hwava hugaro hwasiiwa riri dongo, serenje; ndipo pachava namafuro emhuru, ndipo paichavata pasi, ichidya mashizha apo.

¹¹When its branches are withered they shall be broken off; women shall come [and] set them on fire. For it is a people of no intelligence; therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he who formed them will shew them no favour.

¹¹Kana matavi apo aoma, achavhumwa; vakadzi vachauya vachiapisa; nekuti vanhu ava havana njere; saka akavaita haangavi netsitsi navo, akavaumba haangavi norudo navo.

¹²And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah shall beat out from the flood of the river unto the torrent of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, [ye] children of Israel.

¹²Zvino nezuva iro Jehovha achapura zviyo kubvira pamvura yoRwizi kusvikira parukova rweEgipita; imwi muchaunganidzwa, muchiita mumwe-mumwe, imwi vana vaIsiraeti.

¹³And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come that were perishing in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.

¹³Zvino nezuva iro hwamanda huru icharidzwa; vakanga voparara panyika yeAsiria, navakanga vadzingirwa kunyika yeEgipita, vachauya; vachanamata Jehovha pagomo dzvene paJerusaremu.
