Hezekiel 13
1 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
2 “Ame vi, gblɔ nya ɖi ɖe Israel ƒe nyagblɔɖila siwo le nya gblɔm ɖi fifia la ŋu. Gblɔe na wo dometɔ siwo gblɔa nya ɖi tso woawo ŋutɔ ƒe susu me be, ‘Mise Yehowa ƒe nya!’”
“Ndodana yomuntu, phrofitha umelana labaphrofethi bako-Israyeli abaphrofethayo khathesi. Uthi kulabo abaphrofetha okuvela emicabangweni yabo: ‘Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo!
3 Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si. Baba na nyagblɔɖila siwo nye abunɛtɔwo, ame siwo dzea woawo ŋutɔ ƒe gbɔgbɔ yome, eye womekpɔa naneke o!
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Maye kubaphrofethi abayizithutha abalandela umoya wabo kodwa bengabonanga lutho!
4 O Israel, wò nyagblɔɖilawo le abe abei siwo le gli gbagbãwo dome ene.
Abaphrofethi bakho, we Israyeli, banjengamakhanka asemanxiweni.
5 Mieyi glia ƒe gbagbãƒewo ne miadzrae ɖo na Israel ƒe aƒe la, ale be wòate ŋu anɔ te sesĩe le aʋa me le Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke la dzi o.
Kawuyanga phezulu ezikhexeni emdulini ukuba uwulungisele indlu ka-Israyeli ukuze uqine empini ngosuku lukaThixo.
6 Woƒe ŋutegawo nye aʋatso, eye woƒe nukakawo nye alakpa; wogblɔna be, “Yehowae gblɔe,” le esime Yehowa medɔ wo o, ke wokpɔa mɔ be, yewoƒe nyawo nava eme.
Imibono yabo iyinkohliso njalo lobungoma babo bungamanga. Bathi, “uThixo uthi,” yena uThixo engabathumanga; kodwa bathembe ukuthi amazwi abo azagcwaliseka.
7 Ɖe miekpɔa aʋatsoŋutegawo, eye miekaa alakpanu esi miegblɔ be, “Yehowae gblɔe” evɔ nyemegblɔ nenema oa?
Kalikayiboni imibono yenkohliso na, njalo lakhuluma ubungoma bamanga lapho lisithi, “uThixo uthi,” lanxa mina ngingatshongo?
8 “Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Le miaƒe nya dzodzrowo kple miaƒe alakpaŋutegawo ta la, metso ɖe mia ŋu. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngenxa yamazwi enu enkohliso kanye lemibono yenu yamanga, ngimelana lani, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
9 Makɔ nye asi dzi ɖe nyagblɔɖila siwo kpɔa alakpaŋutegawo ŋu, eye womanɔ nye amewo ƒe aɖaŋudelawo dome o. Wokaa aʋatsonukakawo, womaŋlɔ woƒe ŋkɔwo ɖe Israel ƒe aƒemetɔwo dome o, eye womage ɖe Israel ƒe anyigba dzi hã o. Ekema mianya be, nyee nye Aƒetɔ Yehowa.’”
Isandla sami sizamelana labaphrofethi ababona imibono yenkohliso bakhulume ubungoma bamanga. Kabayikuba ngabenhlangano yabantu bami kumbe balotshwe emibhalweni yendlu ka-Israyeli, loba bangene elizweni lako-Israyeli. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo Wobukhosi.
10 “Le esime wokplɔ nye amewo trae to gbɔgblɔ me be, ‘Ŋutifafa’ li, esime ŋutifafa menɔ anyi o, eye ne wotu gli masemasẽ aɖe la, wosiaa akalo nɛ la,
Ngenxa yokuthi bedukisa abantu bami, besithi “Ukuthula,” khona ukuthula kungekho, njalo ngoba, nxa kwakhiwe umduli ongaqinanga, bayawubhada ngekalaga,
11 eya ta gblɔ na akalosilawo be, gli la le mumu ge. Tsi adza bababa, maɖo tsikpe ɖa, eye mana ahom sesẽwo natu.
ngakho tshela labo abawubhada ngekalaga ukuthi uzadilika. Kuzakuza isihlambi sezulu, njalo ngizaletha isiqhotho esitshaya phansi, kuqhamuke umoya olamandla.
12 Ne gli la mu la, ɖe amewo mabia mi be, ‘Afi ka akalo si miesi nɛ la le o’ mahã?”
Lapho umduli udilika, abantu kabayikulibuza na bathi, “Ingaphi ikalaga elawubhada ngayo?”
13 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Eya ta le nye dɔmedzoe me la, mana ya sesẽ aɖe naƒo, eye le nye dziku me la, mana tsikpe kple tsi nadza bababa, eye woagblẽ nu.
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngolaka lwami ngizadedela umoya olamandla, kuthi ngokuthukuthela kwami isiqhotho lesihlambi sezulu kune ngentukuthelo ebhubhisayo.
14 Mamu gli si miesi akalo na, magbãe wòasɔ kple anyigba, ale be eƒe gɔmeɖoɖo natsi gota. Ne emu la, atsrɔ̃ mi, ekema mianyae be, nyee nye Yehowa.
Ngizadiliza umduli eliwubhade ngekalaga ngiwuwisele phansi ukuze isisekelo sawo sibe segcekeni. Nxa ususiwa lizafela kuwo; njalo lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.
15 Ale maɖe nye dziku helĩhelĩ ɖe gli la kple ame siwo si akalo nɛ la ŋu. Magblɔ na mi be, “Gli la megali o, eya ta ame siwo si akalo nɛ la hã maganɔ anyi o.
Ngakho ngizachitha ulaka lwami ngimelane lomduli kanye lalabo abawubhada ngekalaga. Ngizakuthi kini, “Umduli kawusekho njalo yiso leso lakulabo abawucomba ngekalaga,
16 Israel ƒe nyagblɔɖila siwo gblɔ nya ɖi le Yerusalem la, kpɔ ŋutifafa ƒe ŋutega, le esime ŋutifafa aɖeke menɔ anyi o. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”’
labobaphrofethi bako-Israyeli abaphrofetha ngeJerusalema babona imibono yokuthula ngalo, khona ukuthula kungekho, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.”’
17 “Azɔ, ame vi, trɔ wò mo ɖe wò amewo ƒe vinyɔnuvi siwo gblɔ nya ɖi le woawo ŋutɔ ƒe susu nu la ŋu. Gblɔ nya ɖi tsi tsitre ɖe wo ŋu,
Khathesi-ke ndodana yomuntu, melana lamadodakazi abantu bakini aphrofetha okwemicabango yawo. Phrofetha umelana lawo
18 nàgblɔ be nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, ‘Baba na nyɔnu siwo doa dzokawo ɖe woƒe alɔnuwo katã, eye wowɔa motsyɔnu didime vovovowo ɖe ta, ale be woatre mɔ na amewo. Ɖe miatre mɔ na nye amewo ƒe agbe, ke miaɖe miawo ŋutɔ tɔa?
uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Maye kwabesifazane abathungela intebe ezihlakaleni zabo zonke benze lezimbombozo zamakhanda abo ezilobude obehlukeneyo ukuze bathiye abantu. Lizathiya impilo yabantu bami kodwa lilondoloze eyenu na?
19 Miegblɔ nya vlowo ɖe ŋunye le nye amewo dome ɖe lu asiʋlo ʋɛ aɖewo kple abolo kakɛwo ta. To miaƒe aʋatsokaka na nye ame siwo ɖoa to miaƒe alakpanyawo me la, miewu ame siwo maku hafi o, eye mieɖe ame siwo matsi agbe hafi o la ƒe agbe.’
Lingithukile phakathi kwabantu bami ngenxa yohetshezana lwebhali kanye lemvuthuluka yesinkwa. Ngokuqamba amanga ebantwini bami, abawalalelayo amanga, selibabulele labo ababengamelanga bafe, kodwa layekela abangafanelanga ukuphila.
20 “Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Metsi tsitre ɖe miaƒe dzoka siwo mietsɔna ɖea amewo abe xeviwo ene la ŋuti, eye maɖe wo ɖa le miaƒe abɔwo ŋu. Mana ablɔɖe ame siwo mietre mɔ na abe xeviwo ene.
Ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngimelana lezintebe zenu elithiya abantu ngazo njengenyoni njalo ngizazidabula ezingalweni zenu; ngizabakhulula abantu elibathiya njengenyoni.
21 Mavuvu miaƒe motsyɔnuwo, maɖe nye amewo tso miaƒe asi me, eye womaganɔ miaƒe ŋusẽ te o. Ekema mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.
Izimbombozo zenu ngizazidabula ngikhulule abantu bami ezandleni zenu, njalo kabayikuba ngaphansi kwamandla okubazingela kwenu. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.
22 Esi mietsɔ alakpa ɖe dzi le ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒo le esime nyemeda nuxaxa ɖe wo dzi o, eye esi miedo ŋusẽ ame vɔ̃ɖiwo be womagaɖe asi le woƒe mɔ vɔ̃ɖiwo ŋu o, ale be woaɖe woƒe agbe o ta la,
Ngenxa yokuthi lenyelisa inhliziyo zabalungileyo ngamanga enu, lapho ngangingabalethelanga sizi, njalo ngoba lakhuthaza ababi ukuba bangaphenduki ezindleleni zabo ezimbi ngalokho basilise ukuphila kwabo,
23 miagakpɔ alakpaŋutegawo o, eye miagagblɔ alakpanyawo ɖi o. Maɖe nye amewo tso miaƒe asi me. Ekema mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
ngakho kaliyikubona imibono yamanga futhi loba izenzo zobungoma. Abantu bami ngizabahlenga ezandleni zenu. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.’”
