< Yesaya 3 >
1 Kpɔ ɖa, Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, aɖo asi Yerusalem kple Yuda ƒe nuɖuɖu kple tsi ƒe kpɔtsoƒewo kple dzikpɔkpɔ dzi. Aɖo asi nuɖuɖu kple tsinono siwo katã wònaa wo la dzi.
Khangelani khathesi UThixo, uThixo uSomandla usezasusa eJerusalema lelizweni lakoJuda okufunekayo losizo: konke ukudla lamanzi,
2 Aɖo asi eƒe kalẽtɔwo kple aʋawɔlawo, ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo kple nyagblɔɖilawo, afakalawo kple dumegãwo,
iqhawe lebutho, umahluleli lomphrofethi, isangoma lomuntu omdala,
3 ame blaatɔ̃wo: ƒe amegãwo, amegã bubuwo, aɖaŋudelawo, aɖaŋudɔwɔlawo kple gbesalawo dzi.
induna yebutho labangamatshumi amahlanu lamadoda ayizikhulu, umeluleki, ingcitshi yemisebenzi, lesanuse esihlakaniphileyo.
4 Matsɔ ɖeviwo awɔ woƒe amegãwoe, eye ɖevi suewo anye wo dzi ɖulawo.
“Ngizakwenza abafana babeyizikhulu zabo; abantwana nje bazababusa.”
5 Amewo ate wo nɔewo ɖe to, ŋutsu atso ɖe ŋutsu ŋu, aƒelika ɖe aƒelika ŋu, sɔhɛwo atso ɖe ame tsitsiwo ŋu, eye yakamewo atso ɖe bubumewo ŋu.
Abantu bazancindezelana, umuntu avukele umuntu, umakhelwane avukele umakhelwane. Abatsha bazavukela abadala, abeyisekayo bavukele abahlonitshwa.
6 Ŋutsu alé nɔvia ŋutsu le fofoa ƒe aƒe me agblɔ be, “Wò ya avɔ le ŋuwò, nye mia kplɔla ne nàkpɔ aƒe gbagbã sia dzi.”
Indoda izabamba omunye wabafowabo emzini kayise ithi, “Ulesembatho, woba ngumkhokheli wethu, inqwaba yamanxiwa le izakuba ngaphansi kombuso wakho.”
7 Le ŋkeke ma me la, aɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ŋutete mele ŋunye o, nuɖuɖu alo nutata mele nye aƒe me o, eya ta migawɔm ame siawo kplɔlae o.”
Kodwa ngalolosuku uzakhala athi, “Angilamasiza. Endlini yami akulakudla loba izigqoko; ungangenzi umkhokheli wabantu.”
8 Yerusalem le mumum sɔgɔsɔgɔ, Yuda le anyi dzem. Woƒe nyawo kple woƒe nuwɔwɔ tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋu. Wogbe eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe amegbɔnɔnɔ.
IJerusalema liyadiyazela, uJuda uyawa; amazwi abo lezenzo zabo kuphambene loThixo, kweyisa ubukhosi bakhe.
9 Woɖe woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖe go abe Sodom ene, eye womeɣla wo o. Baba na wo! Wohe gbegblẽ va wo ɖokuiwo dzi.
Ukukhangeleka kobuso babo kufakaza kubi ngabo; babukisa izono zabo njengeSodoma; kabazifihli. Maye kubo! Bazilethele incithakalo phezu kwabo.
10 Gblɔe na dzɔdzɔetɔwo be nuwo adze edzi na wo, elabena woaɖu woƒe nuwɔnawo ƒe kutsetsewo.
Tshela abalungileyo ukuthi kuzakuba kuhle kubo, ngoba bazakholisa izithelo zezenzo zabo.
11 Baba na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo, gbegblẽ ava wo dzi. Woaxe nu siwo woƒe asiwo wɔ la ƒe fetu na wo.
Maye kwababi! Incithakalo isiphezu kwabo! Bazaphindiselwa ngalokho izandla zabo ezikwenzileyo.
12 Sɔhɛwo te nye amewo ɖe to, eye nyɔnuwo nye woƒe dziɖulawo. O! Nye amewo, mia kplɔlawo kplɔ mi trae, wote mi ɖa le mɔ la dzi.
Abatsha bancindezela abantu bami, abesifazane bayababusa. Awu, bantu bami, abakhokheli benu bayaliduhisa; bayaliphambula endleleni.
13 Yehowa nɔ anyi ɖe enɔƒe le ʋɔnu. Etso be wòadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu ameawo.
UThixo uphakama ukuba afakaze indaba yakhe, uyasukuma ukuba ahlulele abantu.
14 Yehowa bu fɔ eƒe amewo, eƒe dumegãwo kple kplɔlawo be, “Miawoe tsrɔ̃ nye waingble. Mieli kɔ nu siwo mieha le ame dahewo si la ɖe miaƒe aƒewo me.
UThixo uqalisa ukwahlulela abadala labakhokheli babantu esithi, “Yini elitshabalalise isivini sami; elikuthumbe kubayanga kusezindlini zenu.
15 Nu ka gblɔm miele esi miegbã nye amewo, eye mieto mo na ame dahewo nyanyanya?” Aƒetɔ, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
Litshoni ngokuchoboza abantu bami langokuchola ubuso babayanga?” kutsho iNkosi, uThixo uSomandla.
16 “Zion nyɔnuwo dana, wolia kɔ ganɛ hafi nɔa zɔzɔm. Woɖoa ahĩamo, nɔa zɔzɔm, nɔa ble nyem xatsɛxatsɛ, eye gavi siwo le woƒe afɔkɔe la nɔa ɖiɖim gliŋgliŋgliŋ.
UThixo uthi, “Abesifazane baseZiyoni bayaziphakamisa, bahamba belule izintamo, behuga ngamehlo abo, begwenxeka ngamanyathelo amancane, izigqizo zikhencezela enqagaleni zabo.
17 Eya ta Aƒetɔ Yehowa ana be Zion nyɔnuwo ƒe ta nabebe kple abi, Yehowa ana be ta nakpa na wo.”
Ngakho-ke uThixo uzakwenza amakhanda abesifazane baseZiyoni abe lezilonda; uThixo uzakwenza isikhumba samakhanda abo siphuceke.”
18 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, Aƒetɔ aɖe woƒe atsyɔ̃ɖonuwo ɖa le wo ŋu: aɖe alɔnugɛwo, tablanuwo, kɔga nyuiwo,
Ngalolosuku uThixo uzahluthuna imiceciso yabo: amasongo, imincwazi, lemigaxo yentanyeni
19 aɖe togɛwo, alɔnugɛwo kple motsyɔnuwo ɖa.
amacici, izigqizo lezimbombozo,
20 Aɖe tablanuwo, klodzonuwo, dɔmeblanuwo, amiʋeʋĩtukpawo, sebewo,
amaqhiye, izigetsho lamabhanti; amambodlela amakha lezintebe,
21 ŋkɔsigɛwo kple ŋɔtigɛwo ɖa.
indandatho ezilophawu lamasongo empumulo,
22 Aɖe awu ʋlaya nyuiwo, kukuwo, vuvɔmewuwo, akplowo;
izembatho ezinhle lezingubo lezigqoko, izikhwama
23 ahuhɔ̃ewo, aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awuwo, agowuwo kple sedawuwo ɖa.
lezibuko, lezigqoko zelineni, imiqhele lamaveli.
24 Be woanɔ ʋeʋẽm lĩlĩlĩ teƒe la, woaʋẽ kũu; adagbika axɔ ɖe alidziblanu nyui teƒe, tabebe axɔ ɖe ɖa ŋɔŋɔe ƒoƒo teƒe, akpanyatata axɔ ɖe awu ʋlaya, nyui teƒe, eye ŋutilãléayi axɔ ɖe ŋutilã zɔzrɔ̃e teƒe.
Endaweni yephunga elimnandi kuzakuba lomnuko omubi; endaweni yebhanti kuzakuba legoda, endaweni yenwele ezilungiswe kuhle kuzakuba lempabanga, endaweni yezigqoko ezinhle kuzakuba ngamasaka, endaweni yobuhle, kuzakuba lihlazo.
25 Wò ŋutsuwo atsi yi nu, eye wò aʋawɔlawo atsi aʋa.
Amadoda akini azakuwa ngenkemba, kanjalo lamabutho akini empini.
26 Zion ƒe agbowo afa konyi, afa avi, anɔ anyi ɖe anyigba abe wɔnamanɔŋutɔ ene.
Amasango aseZiyoni azakhala alile, kuthi yona ihlale phansi ichithekile.
