¹Shoko rakaonekwa naIsaya, mwa nakomana waAmozi, pamusoro paJudha neJerusaremu.

¹This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

²Pamazuva okupedzisira zvichaitika kuti gomo reimba yaJehovha richasimbiswa pamusoro pamakomo, richakwiridzwa kupfuura zvikomo; marudzi ose achamhanyira kwariri.

²It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Yahweh’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.

³Vanhu vazhinji vachaendako vachiti, Uyai, ngatikwire kugomo raJehovha, kuimba yaMwari waJakove; iye achatidzidzisa nzira dzake, tichafamba mumakwara ake; nekuti murayiro uchabva paZiyoni, shoko raJehovha richabva Jerusaremu.

³Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

⁴Iye achatonga pakati pamarudzi, nokururamisira vanhu vazhinji; vachapfura minondo yavo vachiita mapadza, namapfumo avo vachiaita mapanga okuchekerera miti; rumwe rudzi harungazosimudziri rumwe rudzi munondo, havangazodzidzi kurwa.

⁴He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

⁵Iwe imba yaJakove, uyai tifambe muchiedza chaJehovha.

⁶nekuti imwi Jehovha makasiya vanhu venyu veimba yaJakove, nekuti vazere netsika dzinobva mabvazuva, vanouka savaFirisitia, vanobatana maoko navana vavatorwa.

⁶For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.

⁷Nyika yavo izere nesirivha nendarama, fuma yavo haiperi; nyika yavo izerewo namabhiza, nengoro dzavo dzokurwa hadziperi.

⁷Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.

⁸Nyika yavo izerewo nezvifananidzo; vanonamata zvakaitwa namaoko avo, izvo zvakaitwa nemimwe yavo.

⁸Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.

⁹Vanhu vaduku vakakotamiswa, navakuru vakaninipiswa; saka musavakangamwira.

⁹Man is brought low, and mankind is humbled; therefore don’t forgive them.

¹⁰Pinda mudombo uvande,muguruva, nokuda kwaJehovha anotyisa, uye nokuda kokubwinya koumambo hwake.

¹⁰Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of Yahweh, and from the glory of his majesty.

¹¹Kuzvikudza kwavanhu kuchaderedzwa, namanyawi avanhu achaninipiswa, Jehovha oga achakudzwa nezuva iro.

¹¹The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the haughtiness of men will be bowed down, and Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day.

¹²nekuti Jehovha wehondo ane zuva rake pamusoro pavose vanodada navanozvikudza, navana manyawi; vachaderedzwa;

¹²For there will be a day of Yahweh of Armies for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low:

¹³napamusoro pemisidhari yose yeRebhanoni yakareba yakakwirira; napamusoro pamiouki yose yeBhashani,

¹³For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,

¹⁴napamusoro pamakomo ose marefu, napamusoro pezvikomo zvose zvakakwirira,

¹⁴For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,

¹⁵napamusoro peshongwe dzose refu, napamusoro pamasvingo ose akasimbiswa,

¹⁵For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,

¹⁶napamusoro pezvikepe zvose zveTarishishi, napamusoro pezvifananidzo zvose zvinofadza.

¹⁶For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.

¹⁷Ukuru hwevanhu huchakotamiswa, nokuzvikudza kwavanhu kuchaderedzwa; Jehovha oga achakudzwa nezuva iro.

¹⁷The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.

¹⁸Zvifananidzo zvichapera chose.

¹⁹Vanhu vachapinda mumapako amatombo, nomumakomba muvhu, nokuda kwaJehovha anotyisa, uye nokuda kokubwinya koumambo hwake, kana achisimuka kuzunungusa nyika nesimba.

¹⁹Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Yahweh, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.

²⁰Nezuva iro vanhu vacharasa zvifananidzo zvavo zvesirivha nezvifananidzo zvavo zvendarama, zvavakazviitira kuti vazvinamate, vachizviisa kunhuta nezviremwaremwa;

²⁰In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

²¹vapinde mumapako amatombo, nomumikaha yamatombo makuru, nokuda kwaJehovha anotyisa, uye nokuda kokubwinya koumambo hwake, kana achisimuka kuzunungusa nyika nesimba.

²¹To go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Yahweh, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.

²²Regai munhu, anokufema mumhino dzake; nekuti anobatsireiko?

²²Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
