1 Esiae nye nyagblɔɖi ɖe Damasko ŋu: “Kpɔ ɖa, Damasko maganye du abe tsã ene o, ke boŋ atrɔ azu aƒedo!
Isiqalekiso esimayelana leDamaseko: “Khangela iDamaseko kayisayikuba lidolobho kodwa izakuba yinqumbi yamanxiwa.
2 Woagblẽ Aroa ƒe duwo ɖi woatsi ƒuƒlu, eye wòazu nɔƒe na alẽha siwo atsyɔ akɔ anyi ɖe afi ma, eye ame aɖeke mado ŋɔdzi na wo o.
Amadolobho ase-Aroyeri azatshiywa, etshiyelwa imihlambi ezalala phansi kungekho ozayenza yesabe.
3 Efraim ƒe mɔ sesẽwo nu ayi kple Damasko ƒe fiaɖuƒe hã, eye Aram ƒe ame mamlɛawo ƒe ŋusẽ anɔ abe Israeltɔ ene.” Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
Idolobho elivikelweyo lizanyamalala ko-Efrayimi lamandla obukhosi eDamaseko; insalela ka-Aramu izakuba njengodumo lwabako-Israyeli,” kutsho uThixo uSomandla.
4 “Eva eme le ɣe ma ɣi be, Yakob ƒe ŋusẽ aɖiɖi, eye eƒe lãmemi avɔ keŋ.
“Ngalolusuku udumo lukaJakhobe luzakwehla; amafutha asemzimbeni wakhe azancipha.
5 Azu abe bligble si me woŋe bli le hegblẽ hɔ̃litiawo ɖe tsitrenu ene, eye abe ale si agbledela fɔa bli dzɔdzɔe le Refaim me ene.
Kuzakuba njengalapho umvuni evuna amabele amiyo evuna amabele ngengalo yakhe, njenganxa umuntu edobha izikhwebu zamabele eSigodini saseRefayi.
6 Kutsetse ʋɛ aɖewo asusɔ abe ale si ne wogbe amiti vɔ, eye kutsetse eve alo etɔ̃ aɖewo susɔna ɖe eƒe adzame ene. Wo ame ene alo atɔ̃ nɔa atiawo ƒe alɔwo dzi la ene.” Yehowa Israel ƒe Mawu lae gblɔe.
Ikanti ezinye izikhwebu zizasala, njengalapho isihlahla se-oliva sibhuliwe, kusale ama-oliva amabili loba amathathu ezingatsheni eziphezulu kakhulu, amane loba amahlanu ezingabeni zezithelo,” kutsho uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
7 Ɣe ma ɣi la, amegbetɔ atrɔ ɖe eƒe Wɔla ŋu, eye eƒe ŋkuwo anɔ Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la dzi.
Ngalolosuku abantu bazathembela kuMenzi wabo amehlo abo aphendukele koNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
8 Womagatrɔ ɖe woƒe vɔsamlekpui siwo woawo ŋutɔ wowɔ kple woƒe asiwo la ŋu o, eye womagabu aƒeli kple ɣelégba siwo woawo ŋutɔ wowɔ kple woƒe asiwo la o.
Abayikuthembela ema-alithareni, umsebenzi wezandla zabo, njalo kabayikuzinanza izinsika zika-Ashera lama-alithare empepha enziwa yiminwe yabo.
9 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, woƒe du sesẽ siwo wogblẽ ɖi na Israelviwo hesi dzo la anɔ abe gbegbe ene, eye woazu aƒedo.
Ngalolosuku amadolobho abo aqinileyo, abawatshiyayo ngenxa yama-Israyeli azafana lezindawo ezatshiyelwa izixukwana lezihlahlanyana. Konke kuzakuba yincithakalo.
10 Elabena èŋlɔ Mawu, wò xɔnametɔ la be, eye mèɖo ŋku agakpe si nye wò mɔ sesẽ la dzi o. Eya ta togbɔ be nèƒã nuku nyuiwo, eye nèdo du bubu me tɔwo ƒe wainkawo;
Selimkhohliwe uNkulunkulu uMsindisi wenu, kalilikhumbulanga iDwala, inqaba yenu. Ngakho lanxa ligxumeka izihlahla ezinhle, lihlanyele lamavini avela ezizweni,
11 togbɔ be gbe si gbe nèdoe la, ètɔ kpɔ ɖe eŋu, eye esi ŋu ke la, èna wò nukuawo ƒo se hã la, le nuŋegbe la, màŋe naneke wu fukpekpe kple vevesese o.
lanxa lingawenza akhule ngelanga elizawagxumeka ngalo, loba liwenze ahlume ngekuseni eliwahlanyele ngayo, kodwa isivuno sizakuba yize ngosuku lwesifo lobuhlungu obungelaphekiyo.
12 O! Dukɔ geɖewo ƒe agbodzedze. Wodze agbo abe tɔ dzeagbo ene! O! Woƒe amewo ƒe hoowɔwɔ. Wole hoo wɔm abe tɔ dzeagbowo ƒe hoowɔwɔ ene.
Maye, ukuhlokoma kwezizwe ezinengi, zihlokoma njengokuhlokoma kolwandle! Yeka ukuxokozela kwezizwe, zihuba njengokuhuba kwamanzi amanengi!
13 Togbɔ be ameawo le hoo wɔm abe tsi sesẽwo ƒe hoowɔwɔ ene hã la, ne èblu ɖe wo ta la, wosina yia megbe ke. Èɖe wo ɖe ŋu abe gbe ƒuƒuwo le towo dzi kple yali le ahom nu ene.
Lanxa izizwe zihuba njengokugubhuza kwamanzi, nxa ezikhuza zibalekela khatshana, njengamakhoba ephetshulwa ngumoya emaqaqeni, lanjengothuli olubangwa yisivunguzane.
14 Ŋɔdzi nɔa anyi le fiẽ me, gake wobuna ne ŋu ke. Esia nye ame siwo daa adzo mí la ƒe gome kple mía halawo ƒe dzidzenu.
Kusihlwa kuba lokuthuthumela. Kungakasi, kabasekho. Lesi yiso isabelo salabo abasikhuthuzayo, isabelo salabo abasihlaselayo.
