UIsaya 42 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

42 ¹“Khangela umkhonzi wam, endimxhasayo, umnyulwa wam, lowo umphefumlo wam okholwayo nguye. Ndibeke uMoya wam phezu kwakhe; uya kuzisa ubulungisa ezintlangeni. ^a a v1 UMateyu lo Mkhonzi uthanjiswe nguMoya umthelekisa ngqo noYesu — ecaphula ezi ndinyana zobulungiseleli bakhe bokuphilisa kuMateyu 12:18-21. UMkhonzi weengoma ezine zoMkhonzi zikaIsaya nguYesu, uSirayeli oyinyaniso. ²Akayi kudanduluka okanye aphakamise izwi lakhe, okanye alivakalise esitratweni. ³Akayi kwaphula ingcongolo eyaphukileyo okanye acime umsonto otshayo buthathaka; ngokuthembeka uya kuzisa ubulungisa. ⁴Akayi kutyhafa okanye aqotywe ade amise ubulungisa emhlabeni; iziqithi zilindele imfundiso yakhe.”

⁵Utsho oku uBawo wethu—yena owadala amazulu waza wawolula, owaneka ihlabathi noko kuphuma kulo, onika umphefumlo ebantwini abaphezu kwalo, nomoya kwabo bahamba kulo:

⁶“NdinguBawo wakho; ngobulungisa ndikubizile; ndiya kubamba isandla sakho ndikulondoloze; ndiya kukwenza umnqophiso ebantwini, isikhanyiso ezintlangeni, ⁷ukuvula amehlo emfama, ukukhupha amakhonkxwa emhadini—abo bahleli ebumnyameni endlwini yentolongo.

⁸“NdinguBawo wakho; ligama lam elo; uzuko lwam andilunikeli omnye, nendumiso yam kwimifanekiso eqingqiweyo. ⁹Yabona, izinto zangaphambili zizalisekile, nezinto ezintsha ndizivakalisa ngoku; phambi kokuba zihlume, ndikuxelele ngazo.”

Vumani Ingoma Entsha

¹⁰Vumani ingoma entsha kuBawo wethu, indumiso yakhe isuka esiphelweni sehlabathi—nina abehlela elwandle, nako konke okuluzalisayo, iziqithi nabemi bazo. ¹¹Intlango nemizi yayo mayiphakamise izwi layo, imizana ahleli kuyo uKedare; abemi baseSela mabavume ngovuyo, mabadanduluke ezincotsheni zeentaba. ¹²Mabazukise uBawo wethu, bavakalise indumiso yakhe eziqithini. ¹³uBawo wethu uphuma njengegorha; njengandoda yemfazwe uvusa ikhwele lakhe; uyamemeza, uyadanduluka, woyisa iintshaba zakhe.

¹⁴Ixesha elide bendithe cwaka; bendizolile ndizibambile mna. Ngoku ndiya kukhala njengomfazi onenimba; ndiya kukhefuza ndiphefumle kanyekanye. ¹⁵Ndiya kuzibhuqa iintaba neenduli ndenze lome lonke uhlaza lwazo; ndiya kuyijika imilambo ibe ziziqithi, ndiwomise amachibi. ¹⁶Ndiya kuzikhokela iimfama ngeendlela ezingazaziyo; ndizikhaphe emendweni ezingawaziyo. Ndiya kubujika ubumnyama obuphambi kwazo bube kukukhanya, neendawo ezimagqagala zibe lithabazi. Zezi izinto endiya kuzenza, yaye andiyi kuzishiya. ¹⁷Baya kubuyiselwa umva badane kuphele—abo bakholosa ngemifanekiso eqingqiweyo, abathi kwimifanekiso etyhidiweyo: “Ningoothixo bethu.”

Amehlo Angayi Kubona

¹⁸Nina zithulu, vani; nani ziimfama, khangelani, ukuze nibone. ¹⁹Ngubani na oyimfama ngaphandle komkhonzi wam, okanye osisithulu njengesithunywa endisithumayo? Ngubani na oyimfama njengalowo unoxolo nam, oyimfama njengomkhonzi kaBawo wethu? ^b b v19 USirayeli ubizwa apha ngokuba ngumkhonzi — abantu ababizelwe ukuba bangqinele uBawo wethu, kodwa beziimfama bezizithulu kolo bizo. Ngaphambili kwesi sahluko sinye (iindinyana 1-9), uMkhonzi nguYesu — uSirayeli wokwenene ozalisekisa oko uSirayeli awayengenakukwenza. ²⁰Ubone izinto ezininzi, kodwa awuziqwalaseli; iindlebe zakho zivuliwe, kodwa akuva.

²¹UBawo wethu wayekholisekile, ngenxa yobulungisa bakhe, ukuwenza mkhulu umyalelo wakhe, awuzukise. ²²Kodwa aba ngabantu abaphangiweyo nabathinjiweyo, bonke bebhaqwe emingxunyeni, befihlwe ezintolongweni. Baphenduke amaxhoba kungekho bani wokuhlangula, baba zizinto eziphangiweyo kungekho bani othi: “Buyisela!”

²³Ngubani na kuni oya kukuphulaphula oku, obeke indlebe aphulaphule oko kuzayo? ²⁴Ngubani na owamnikela uYakobi kumphangi, noSirayeli kwabaphangi? Asinguye na uBawo wethu, esimonileyo? Abavumanga ukuhamba ngeendlela zakhe, abawuthobela umyalelo wakhe. ²⁵Ngoko wabaphalazela ubushushu bomsindo wakhe namandla emfazwe. Yavutha kubo ngeenxa zonke, kodwa abaqondanga; yabatshisa, kodwa abakubekanga entliziyweni.
