Hezekiel 12
1 Yehowa ƒe gbe va nam be,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika futhi kimi lisithi:
2 “Ame vi, èle dukɔ dzeaglã aɖe me. Ŋku li na ameawo be woakpɔ nu, gake womekpɔa nu o, to li na wo be woase nu, gake womesea nu o, elabena wonye aglãdzelawo.
Ndodana yomuntu, uhlala phakathi kwendlu evukelayo, abalamehlo okubona, kodwa bengaboni, balendlebe zokuzwa, kodwa bengezwa; ngoba bayindlu evukelayo.
3 “Eya ta ame vi, ƒo ƒu wò nuwo hena aboyomeyiyi. Le ŋkeke me, esi ameawo le kpɔwòm la, dze mɔ tso afi si nèle, nàyi teƒe bubu. Ɖewohĩ woase egɔme togbɔ be wonye aglãdzelawo hã.
Ngakho, wena ndodana yomuntu, zenzele impahla yokuthunjwa, usuke emini phambi kwamehlo abo, usuke endaweni yakho uye kwenye indawo phambi kwamehlo abo. Mhlawumbe bazabona lanxa beyindlu evukelayo.
4 Le ŋkeke me la, esime wole kpɔwòm la, ɖe wò nu siwo nètsɔ do agbae na aboyomeyiyi la ɖe go. Ekema le fiẽ me la, esi wole kpɔwòm la, dze mɔ abe ame siwo yina aboyo me ene.
Ubusukhupha impahla yakho emini phambi kwamehlo abo njengempahla yokuthunjwa; wena-ke uzaphuma ntambama phambi kwamehlo abo njengabaphuma besiya ekuthunjweni.
5 Esi wole kpɔwòm la, ŋɔ gli la, eye nàtsɔ wò nuwo to gli ŋɔŋɔ la me.
Uzibhobozele umduli phambi kwamehlo abo, uyikhuphe kiwo.
6 Tsɔ wo ɖe wò abɔta le woƒe ŋkume, eye nàtsɔ wo adzoe ne blukɔ do. Tsyɔ nu mo ale be màkpɔ anyigba la o, elabena metsɔ wò wɔ dzesii na Israel ƒe aƒe la.”
Phambi kwamehlo abo uzayithwala emahlombe, uyikhiphe emnyameni, ugubuzele ubuso bakho ukuze ungaboni umhlabathi; ngoba ngikubeke waba yisibonakaliso kuyo indlu yakoIsrayeli.
7 Ale mewɔ nu si wòɖo nam. Le ŋkeke me la, metsɔ nye nuwo do agbae na aboyomeyiyi. Le fiẽ me la, meŋɔ gli la kple nye asiwo. Esi blukɔ do la, metsɔ nye nuwo ɖe abɔta, do goe le ameawo ŋkume.
Ngasengisenza ngokunjalo njengokulaywa kwami: Ngakhupha impahla yami emini, njengempahla yokuthunjwa; kwathi kusihlwa ngazibhobozela umduli ngesandla, ngayikhupha emnyameni ngayithwala emahlombe phambi kwamehlo abo.
8 Le ŋdi me la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ekuseni ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
9 “Ame vi, ɖe Israel ƒe aƒe dzeaglã ma me tɔwo mebia wò be, ‘Nu ka wɔm nèle?’ o mahã.
Ndodana yomuntu, kayitshongo yini kuwe indlu kaIsrayeli, indlu evukelayo, ukuthi: Wenzani?
10 “Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: gbedeasi sia ku ɖe fiavi si le Yerusalem kple Israel ƒe aƒe blibo la me tɔ siwo le afi ma la ŋu.’
Tshono kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lo umthwalo umayelana lesiphathamandla eJerusalema, layo yonke indlu kaIsrayeli ephakathi kwabo.
11 Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Dzesie menye na mi.’ “Nu si mewɔ la, nu ma woawɔ na wo. Woalé wo ayi aboyo mee.
Wothi: Ngiyisibonakaliso senu; njengoba ngenzile, kuzakwenziwa njalo kubo, bazakuya ekuthunjweni ngokuthunjwa.
12 “Fiavi si le wo dome la, atsɔ eƒe nuwo ɖe abɔta adzo ne blukɔ do, eye woaɖe do ɖe gli la me nɛ be wòado to eme. Atsɔ nu atsyɔ eƒe mo ale be mate ŋu akpɔ anyigba la o.
Njalo isiphathamandla esiphakathi kwabo sizayithwala emahlombe emnyameni, siphume; bazabhoboza umduli ukuze bakhuphe ngawo; sizagubuzela ubuso baso, ukuze singaboni umhlabathi ngamehlo.
13 Maɖo nye ɖɔ nɛ, eye nye mɔ aɖee. Makplɔe ayi Babilonia, le Kaldeatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi, gake makpɔ anyigba la o, eye wòaku ɖe afi ma.
Njalo ngizakwendlala imbule lami phezu kwaso, ukuthi sibanjwe emgibeni wami; ngisilethe eBhabhiloni, ilizwe lamaKhaladiya; kanti kasiyikulibona, loba sizafela khona.
14 Makaka ame siwo katã ƒo xlãe, eŋumewo kple eƒe aʋawɔlawo katã ɖe yawo nu, eye mati wo yome kple yi.
Labo bonke abasihanqileyo ukuba lusizo lwaso lalo lonke ibutho laso ngizabahlakazela kuwo wonke umoya; ngihwatshe inkemba emva kwabo.
15 “Woanya be, nyee nye Yehowa, ne mekaka wo ɖe dukɔwo me kple anyigbawo dzi.
Khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi nxa ngibahlakazela ezizweni, ngibachithachithela emazweni.
16 Ke maɖe wo dometɔ ʋɛ aɖewo tso yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ ƒe asi me, ale be woaɖe gbeƒã woƒe ŋunyɔnuwɔnawo le dukɔ siwo me woayi. Ekema woanya be, nyee nye Yehowa.”
Kodwa ngizatshiya amadoda amalutshwana kubo asuke enkembeni, endlaleni, lakumatshayabhuqe wesifo, ukuze balandise ngawo wonke amanyala abo phakathi kwezizwe abazafika kizo; njalo bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
17 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
18 “Ame vi, nɔ ƒoƒom kpakpakpa ne èle wò abolo ɖum, eye nànɔ dzodzom nyanyanya kple vɔvɔ̃ ne èle wò tsi nom.
Ndodana yomuntu, dlana isinkwa sakho ngokuqhaqhazela, unathe amanzi akho ngokuthuthumela langokukhathazeka.
19 Gblɔ na anyigba la dzi tɔwo be, ‘Esiae nye nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ tso ame siwo le Yerusalem dua me kple Israel ƒe anyigba dzi la ŋu. Woaɖu woƒe nu le dzimaɖeɖi me, eye woano woƒe tsi le dziɖeleameƒo me, elabena woaɖe nu siwo katã le anyigba la dzi ɖa le ame siwo katã le afi ma la ƒe ŋutasẽnuwo wɔwɔ ta.
Ubususithi ebantwini belizwe: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova ngabahlali beJerusalema, ngelizwe lakoIsrayeli: Bazakudla isinkwa sabo ngokukhathazeka, banathe amanzi abo ngokwesabisayo, ukuze ilizwe labo libe lunxiwa ngokugcwala kwalo ngenxa yodlakela lwabo bonke abahlala kilo.
20 Du siwo me ameawo le la azu aƒedo, eye anyigba la azu gbegbe. Ekema mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
Lemizi okuhlalwa kiyo izakuba ngamanxiwa, lelizwe libe yinkangala; njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
21 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
22 “Ame vi, nu kae nye lododo sia si le mia si le Israel ƒe anyigba dzi be, ‘Ŋkekeawo le yiyim, eye ŋutega ɖe sia ɖe nye dzodzro.’
Ndodana yomuntu, kuyini lesisaga elilaso elizweni lakoIsrayeli esithi: Insuku ziyelulwa, lawo wonke umbono uyabhubha?
23 Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Matsi lododo sia nu, eye womagadoe azɔ le Israel o.’ Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Ŋkeke siwo me ŋutega ɖe sia ɖe nava eme la gogo.
Ngakho batshele uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngizakwenza lesisaga siphele, njalo kabasayikusisebenzisa njengesaga koIsrayeli; kodwa tshono kubo: Kusondele izinsuku lelizwi lawo wonke umbono.
24 Elabena aʋatsoŋutegawo alo alakpanukaka la, maganɔ anyi le Israelviwo dome o.
Ngoba kakusayikuba khona lamunye umbono oyize, lokuvumisa okubutshelezi phakathi kwendlu yakoIsrayeli.
25 Ke nye Yehowa magblɔ nya si magblɔ, eye wòava eme enumake. Elabena le miaƒe ŋkekewo me la, mana nya sia nya si megblɔ ɖe mi aglãdzelawo ŋu la nava eme; nenemae Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ.’”
Ngoba mina Nkosi ngizakhuluma; ilizwi engizalikhuluma lizakwenzeka, kalisayikuphuziswa; ngoba ezinsukwini zenu, lina ndlu evukelayo, ngizakhuluma ilizwi, ngilenze, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
26 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Lafika futhi kimi ilizwi leNkosi lisithi:
27 “Ame vi, Israel ƒe aƒe la le gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Ŋutega si wòkpɔna la ava eme le ƒe geɖewo megbe, eye wògblɔa nya ɖi tso ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe si gbɔna la ŋu.’
Ndodana yomuntu, khangela, abendlu yakoIsrayeli bathi: Umbono awubonayo ungowensuku ezinengi, njalo uprofetha ngezikhathi ezikhatshana.
28 “Eya ta gblɔ na wo be, Nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye, ‘Nye nyawo dometɔ aɖeke magahe ɖe megbe azɔ o. Nya sia nya si megblɔ la ava eme.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ lae gblɔe.”
Ngakho uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Kakusayikuphuziswa lelilodwa lamazwi ami, kodwa ilizwi engizalikhuluma lizakwenzeka, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
