1Mweya waIshe Jehovha uri pamusoro pangu; nekuti Jehovha akandizodza kuti ndiparidzire vanyoro mashoko akanaka; akandituma kuti ndirape vanemoyo yakaputsika, kuti ndiparidzire vakatapwa kusunungurwa, nokuna vakasungwa kuti vachazarurirwa;
1The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is on me; because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to those who are bound;
2kuti ndiparidzire gore retsitsi dzaJehovha, nezuva rokutsiva raMwari wedu; kuti ndinyaradze vose vanochema;
2to proclaim the year of Yahweh’s favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;
3kuti ndigadzire vanochema paZiyoni vapiwe korona panzvimbo yamadota, mafuta omufaro panzvimbo yokuchema, nenguvo yokurumbidza panzvimbo yomweya waziya; kuti vanzi miti yokururama, chakasimwa chaJehovha, kuti iye akudzwe.
3to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Yahweh, that he may be glorified.
4Ipapo vachavaka matongo akare, vachamutsazve nzvimbo dzakaparadzwa dzokutanga, vachagadzira maguta akanga aitwa matongo, nezvose zvakaparadzwa zvamarudzi namarudzi.
4They shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
5Vatorwa vachamira vachifudza mapoka enyu amakwai, navaeni vachava varimi venyu navagadziri vemizambiringa yenyu.
5Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and foreigners shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6Asi imwi muchanzi vaPristi vaJehovha vanhu vachakutumidzai Vashumiri vaMwari wedu; muchadya fuma yamarudzi avanhu, muchazvirumbidza nokukudzwa kwawo.
6But you shall be named the priests of Yahweh; men will call you the ministers of our God: you will eat the wealth of the nations, and you will boast in their glory.
7Panzvimbo yokunyadziswa kwenyu, muchapiwa migove miviri; panzvimbo yokushorwa vachafarira mugove wavo; naizvozvo panyika yavo vachava nemigove miviri, vachava nomufaro usingaperi.
7Instead of your shame you shall have double; and instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be to them.
8nekuti ini Jehovha ndinoda zvakarurama, ndinovenga kupamba pamwechete nezvakaipa; ndichavaripira zvirokwazvo, uye ndichaita sungano isingaperi navo.
8“For I, Yahweh, love justice, I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9Vana vavo vachazikamwa pakati pamarudzi, nezvibereko zvavo pakati pavanhu; vose vanovaona vachavaziva kuti ndirwo rudzi rwakaropafadzwa naJehovha.
9Their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which Yahweh has blessed.”
10Ndichafarira Jehovha kwazvo, mweya wangu uchava nomufaro munaMwari wangu; nekuti akandifukidza nguvo dzoruponeso, akandipfekedza chokufuka chokururama, somuwani anoshonga korona, uye somwenga unozvishongedza noukomba hwake.
10I will greatly rejoice in Yahweh, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation, he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11nekuti nyika sezvainobudisa miti yayo, nomunda sezvaunomeresa zvakadzvarwamo, saizvozvo Ishe Jehovha achameresa kururama nokurumbidzwa pamberi pamarudzi ose.
11For as the earth brings forth its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord Yahweh will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
