Isaya 65:22
Isaiah 65:22 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Hawatajenga nyumba, nao watu wengine waishi ndani yake, au kupanda mazao na wengine wale. Kwa kuwa kama zilivyo siku za mti, ndivyo zitakavyokuwa siku za watu wangu, wateule wangu watafurahia kwa siku nyingi kazi za mikono yao.
Isaiah 65:22 in English
Isaiah 65:22 · Berean Standard Bible
No longer will they build houses for others to inhabit, nor plant for others to eat. For as is the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, and My chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands.
Context
20“Kamwe hatakuwepo tena ndani yake
mtoto mchanga atakayeishi siku chache tu,
au mzee ambaye hataishi akatimiza miaka yake.
Yeye atakayekufa akiwa na umri wa miaka mia moja
atahesabiwa kwamba ni kijana tu,
yeye ambaye hatafika miaka mia moja,
atahesabiwa kuwa amelaaniwa. 21Watajenga nyumba na kuishi ndani yake;
watapanda mashamba ya mizabibu na kula matunda yake. 22Hawatajenga nyumba, nao watu wengine waishi ndani yake,
au kupanda mazao na wengine wale.
Kwa kuwa kama zilivyo siku za mti,
ndivyo zitakavyokuwa siku za watu wangu,
wateule wangu watafurahia kwa siku nyingi
kazi za mikono yao. 23Hawatajitaabisha kwa kazi bure,
wala hawatazaa watoto ili wapatwe na majanga,
kwa kuwa watakuwa taifa lililobarikiwa na Bwana,
wao na wazao wao pamoja nao. 24Kabla hawajaita, nitajibu,
nao wakiwa katika kunena, nitasikia.
