Isaya anoprofita pamusoro pokuwa kwaSenakeribhi
20 Ipapo Isaya mwanakomana waAmozi akatuma shoko kuna Hezekia akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: Mwari waIsraeri: Ndanzwa munyengetero wako pamusoro paSenakeribhi mambo weAsiria. 21 Iri ndiro shoko rakataurwa naJehovha pamusoro pake:
“ ‘Mhandara Mwanasikana weZioni
anokushora uye anokuseka.
Mwanasikana weJerusarema
anogutsurira musoro uchitiza.
22 Ndianiko wawakazvidza uye ukamhura?
Wakasimudzira inzwi rako kuna aniko
uye ukasimudza meso ako mukuzvikudza?
Ndiye Mutsvene waIsraeri!
23 Nenhume dzako
wakaunganidza zvituko kuna Jehovha.
Uye wakati,
“Nengoro dzangu zhinji
ndakakwira makomo marefu,
nzvimbo refu refu dzeRebhanoni.
Ndakatemera pasi misidhari yayo yakareba,
nemipaini yayo yakaisvonaka.
Ndakasvika kumasango ayo kure kure,
masango ayo akanakisisa.
24 Ndakachera matsime munyika yavatorwa,
uye ndikanwa mvura ikoko.
Netsoka dzangu ndakaomesa
hova dzose dzeIjipiti.”
25 “ ‘Hauna kunzwa here?
Ndakazviita kare kare.
Mumazuva akare ndakazvironga;
zvino ndaita kuti zviitike,
kuti wakashandura maguta
akakomberedzwa akava murwi wamatombo.
26 Vanhu vawo, vakapedzwa simba,
vakavhundutswa uye vakanyadziswa.
Vakafanana nembesa dziri muminda,
samabukira omuriwo mutete akasvibira,
souswa huri pamusoro pemba,
hwakatsva husati hwakura.
27 “ ‘Asi ndinoziva paunogara,
uye kwaunobva nokwaunoenda,
uye kuti wakanditsamwira sei.
28 Nokuti wakanditsamwira
uye kuzvikudza kwako kwasvika munzeve dzangu,
ndichaisa chiredzo changu mumhino dzako,
nematomhu angu mumuromo mako,
uye ndichakuita kuti udzokere
nenzira yawakauya nayo.’
29 “Ichi ndicho chichava chiratidzo chako, iwe Hezekia:
“Gore rino uchadya zvinongomera zvoga,
uye mugore rechipiri zvinobva muna izvozvo.
Asi mugore rechitatu mudyare mugokohwa,
mudyare mizambiringa uye mugodya michero yawo.
30 Uyezve vakasara veimba yaJudha
vachadzika midzi pasi vagobereka michero pamusoro.
31 Nokuti muJerusarema muchabuda vakasara,
uye muGomo reZioni muchabuda chikwata chavachapunyuka.
Kushingaira kwaJehovha Wamasimba Ose kuchazviita.
32 “Naizvozvo, zvanzi naJehovha pamusoro pamambo weAsiria:
“ ‘Haazopindi muguta iri
kana kupfura museve pano.
Haangauyi mberi kwaro nenhoo,
kana kurikomberedza negomo revhu;
33 Nenzira yaakauya nayo achadzokera, haazopindi muguta rino,
ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
34 Ndichadzivirira guta rino uye ndichariponesa,
nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwaDhavhidhi muranda wangu.’ ”
35 Usiku ihwohwo mutumwa waJehovha akaenda akauraya varume zviuru zana namakumi masere nezvishanu mumusasa wavaAsiria. Vanhu pavakati vachimuka mangwana acho, wanei heyo mitumbi yavakafa! 36 Saka Senakeribhi mambo weAsiria akaparadza musasa akadzokera kuNinevhe akandogarako.
37 Rimwe zuva, paakanga achinamata mutemberi yamwari wake Nisiroki, vanakomana vake, Adhiramereki naSharezeri vakamuuraya nomunondo, vakatizira kunyika yeArarati. Esarihadhoni mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
