Yesaya 48
1 “O! Yakob ƒe aƒe, miɖo to nya sia. Mi ame siwo ŋu woyɔ Israel ɖo, eye mietso Yuda ƒe dzidzime me. Mi ame siwo ka atam kple Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ, eye mieyɔa Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ, gake menye le nyateƒe alo dzɔdzɔenyenye me o.
Zwanini lokhu, lina ndlu kaJakobe, elabizwa ngebizo likaIsrayeli, elaphuma emanzini akoJuda, elifunga ngebizo leNkosi, elikhumbuza ngoNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kodwa kungeyisikho ngeqiniso, njalo kungeyisikho ngokulunga.
2 Mi ame siwo yɔa mia ɖokuiwo be du kɔkɔe la me tɔwo, eye mieɖo ŋu ɖe Israel ƒe Mawu la ŋu, ame si ŋkɔe nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ.
Ngoba bazibiza ngokuthi bangabomuzi oyingcwele, beseyama kuNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli; iNkosi yamabandla libizo lakhe.
3 Megblɔ nu siwo dzɔ va yi la da ɖi xoxo. Metsɔ nye nu ɖe gbeƒã wo, eye mena mienya wo. Meɖe zɔ, kasia wo katã wova eme,
Ngamemezela izinto zamandulo kwasekuqaleni, zaphuma emlonyeni wami, ngazizwakalisa; ngenza masinyane, zafika.
4 elabena menya ale si miaƒe dzi me sẽe. Miaƒe kɔwo lia abe gakpo ene, eye miaƒe tagbɔ sẽ abe akɔbli ene,
Ngoba ngangisazi ukuthi ulukhuni, lentamo yakho ingumsipha wensimbi, lebunzi lakho lilithusi;
5 eya ta megblɔ nu siawo na mi gbe aɖe gbe ʋĩi va yi. Hafi woava adzɔ la, meɖe gbeƒã na mi be miagagblɔ be, ‘Nye legbawoe wɔ wo. Nye aklamakpakpɛwo kple akɔblimawue ɖo wo da ɖi,’ o.
ngitsho kwasekuqaleni ngamemezela kuwe, kungakenzakali ngakwenza wakuzwa, hlezi uthi: Isithombe sami sizenzile, lesithombe sami esibaziweyo, lesithombe sami esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa sikulayile.
6 Miese esiawo katã. Mikpɔ wo katã ɖa. Ɖe mialɔ̃ be wole eme oa? “Tso azɔ dzi la, maƒo nu tso nu yeyewo ŋu na mi, tso nu siwo le ɣaɣla, eye mienya wo o la ŋuti na mi.
Usuzwile, khangela konke lokhu; njalo kaliyikukumemezela yini? Ngikwenze uzwe izinto ezintsha kusukela khathesi, lezinto ezifihlakeleyo obungazazi.
7 Fifia ko wowɔ wo. Wo wɔɣi medidi o. Miese woƒe ŋkɔ kpɔ abe egbea ene o, eya ta miate ŋu agblɔ be, ‘Ɛ̃ mienya wo’ o.
Zidalwe khathesi, kungeyisikho ekuqaleni; ngitsho lungakafiki lolusuku ungakezwa ngazo, hlezi uthi: Khangela, bengizazi.
8 Miesee kpɔ loo alo se egɔme o. Tso blema ke, miaƒe towo meʋu o. Menya ale si miebaɖae la nyuie. Woyɔa mi tso ɖevime ke be, aglãdzelawo.
Yebo, kawuzwanga; yebo, kawazanga; yebo, kusukela ngalesosikhathi indlebe yakho yayingavulekanga; ngoba bengisazi ukuthi uzakwenza lokwenza ngenkohliso, wabizwa ngokuthi uyisiphambuki kusukela esizalweni.
9 Le nye ŋutɔ nye ŋkɔ ta la, mehe nye dɔmedzoe ɖe megbe. Le nye kafukafu ta la, nyemena wòva mia dzi o, be nyematsrɔ̃ mi o.
Ngenxa yebizo lami ngizaphuzisa ulaka lwami, langenxa yodumo lwami ngizibambe ngawe, ukuze ngingakuqumi.
10 Kpɔ ɖa, melolõ mi, gake menye abe klosalo ene o. Medo mi kpɔ le fuwɔame ƒe kpodzo me.
Khangela, ngikuhlolile, kodwa hatshi ngesiliva, ngikukhethile esithandweni senhlupheko.
11 Le nye ŋutɔ ta, mewɔ esia ɖo. Aleke maɖe mɔ be woaɖi gbɔ̃m? Nyematsɔ nye ŋutikɔkɔe na ame bubu o.”
Ngenxa yami, ngenxa yami ngiyakwenza; ngoba ibizo lami lingangcoliswa njani? Njalo kangiyikunika udumo lwami komunye.
12 “O! Yakob, ɖo tom, Israel, ame si meyɔ. Nyee nye gbãtɔ, eye nyee nye mlɔetɔ hã.
Ngilalela, Jakobe, lawe Israyeli obiziweyo wami: Nginguye; ngingowokuqala, njalo ngingowokucina.
13 Nye ŋutɔe tsɔ nye asiwo ɖo anyigba gɔme anyi, eye nye nuɖusibɔe metsɔ keke dziwo mee. Ne meyɔ wo la, wo katã wotsona ɖekae.
Isandla sami laso sabeka isisekelo somhlaba, lesandla sami sokunene sendlale amazulu; lapho ngikubiza, kuyasukuma kanyekanye.
14 “Mi katã miva ƒo ƒu ne miaɖo to afii. Legbawo dometɔ kae gblɔ nu siawo da ɖi? Ame si Yehowa tia la ana Yehowa ƒe tameɖoɖo ɖe Babilonia ŋu nava eme, eye wòakɔ eƒe abɔ dzi ɖe Babiloniatɔwo ŋu.
Buthanani lina lonke, lizwe; ngubani phakathi kwabo omemezele lezizinto? INkosi imthandile; izakwenza intando yayo eBhabhiloni, lengalo yayo izakuba phezu kwamaKhaladiya.
15 Nye, nye koe ƒo nu. Ɛ̃, nyee yɔe. Makplɔe vɛ, eye wòakpɔ dzidzedze le eƒe dɔdeasi la me.
Mina uqobo ngikhulumile; yebo ngambiza, ngimlethile, njalo uzaphumelelisa indlela yakhe.
16 “Mite ɖe ŋunye kpokploe ne miaɖo to nya sia, nyemeƒo nu le bebeme o.” Esi wòva eme la, menɔ afi ma? Azɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la dɔm kple eƒe Gbɔgbɔ.
Sondelani kimi, lizwe lokhu; kangikhulumanga ensitha kusukela ekuqaleni; kusukela kulesosikhathi kusenzeka, ngikhona. Khathesi-ke iNkosi uJehova kanye loMoya wayo ingithumile.
17 Ale Yehowa, wò Ɖela, Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la gblɔe nye esi, “Nyee nye Yehowa, wò Mawu, si fiaa nu si nyo na wò la wò, ame si fiaa mɔ si nàto la wò.
Itsho njalo iNkosi, uMhlengi wakho, oNgcwele kaIsrayeli: NgiyiNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, ekufundisa okukusizayo, ekukhokhela ngendlela ofanele ukuthi uhambe ngayo.
18 Nenye ɖe nèɖo to nye sededewo la, anye ne wò ŋutifafa anɔ sisim abe tɔsisi ene, eye wò dzɔdzɔenyenye anɔ abe ƒutsotsoe ene.
Kungathi ngabe walalela imilayo yami! Khona ukuthula kwakho kwakuzakuba njengomfula, lokulunga kwakho njengamagagasi olwandle.
19 Wò dzidzimeviwo ɖe woasɔ gbɔ abe ke ene, eye viwòwo abe ƒutake si womate ŋu axlẽ o la ene. Womaɖe woƒe ŋkɔwo ɖa loo alo woatsrɔ̃ le ŋkunye me o.”
Inzalo yakho layo yayizakuba njengetshebetshebe, lembewu yemibilini yakho njengezinhlamvu zalo; ibizo lawo belingayikuqunywa kumbe lichithwe lisuke phambi kwami.
20 Midzo le Babilonia, misi le Babiloniatɔwo gbɔ! Mitsɔ dzidzɔɣli ɖe gbeƒã esia, eye mido bobloe. Miɖo du ɖe anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke be, “Yehowa ɖe eƒe dɔla Yakob”
Phumani eBhabhiloni, libalekele amaKhaladiya, limemeze ngelizwi lokuhlabelela, likuzwakalise, likuphumisele ngasemkhawulweni womhlaba, lithi: INkosi ihlengile inceku yayo uJakobe.
21 Tsikɔ mewu wo esi wòkplɔ wo to gbedzi o. Ena tsi do tso agakpe me na wo. Egbã agakpe la, eye tsi do bababa.
Njalo kabomanga lapho ibakhokhela bedabula izinkangala; yenza amanzi abagelezela evela edwaleni, futhi yaqhekeza idwala, lamanzi ampompoza.
22 Yehowa be, “Ŋutifafa meli na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo o.”
Akulakuthula, itsho INkosi, kwabakhohlakeleyo.
