Isaya 9:18
Isaiah 9:18 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Hakika uovu huwaka kama moto; huteketeza michongoma na miiba, huwasha moto vichaka vya msituni, hujiviringisha kuelekea juu kama nguzo ya moshi.
Isaiah 9:18 in English
Isaiah 9:18 · Berean Standard Bible
For wickedness burns like a fire that consumes the thorns and briers and kindles the forest thickets which roll upward in billows of smoke.
Context
16Wale wanaowaongoza watu hawa wanawapotosha,
nao wale wanaoongozwa wamepotoka. 17Kwa hiyo Bwana hatawafurahia vijana,
wala hatawahurumia yatima na wajane,
kwa kuwa kila mmoja wao hamchi Mungu, nao ni waovu,
na kila kinywa kinanena upotovu.
Hata kwa haya yote, hasira yake haijageukia mbali,
mkono wake bado umeinuliwa juu. 18Hakika uovu huwaka kama moto;
huteketeza michongoma na miiba,
huwasha moto vichaka vya msituni,
hujiviringisha kuelekea juu kama nguzo ya moshi. 19Kwa hasira ya Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote
nchi itachomwa kwa moto,
nao watu watakuwa kuni za kuchochea moto.
Hakuna mtu atakayemhurumia ndugu yake. 20Upande wa kuume watakuwa wakitafuna,
lakini bado wataona njaa;
upande wa kushoto watakuwa wakila,
lakini hawatashiba.
Kila mmoja atajilisha kwa nyama ya mtoto wake mwenyewe:
