< Yesaya 5 >
1 Azɔ mele ha dzi ge na nye lɔlɔ̃tɔ tso eƒe waingble ŋuti. Waingble aɖe le nye lɔlɔ̃tɔ si le togbɛ si nyoa nuku la dzi.
Ngizahlabelela lowo engimthandayo ingoma ngesivini sakhe: Othandwa yimi wayelesivini eqaqeni oluvundileyo.
2 Edzobo eme heɖe kpewo le eme, eye wòdo wainka nyuitɔwo ɖe eme. Etu gbetakpɔxɔ ɖe agble la titina, eye wòtu wainfiaƒe hã ɖe afi ma. Ele mɔ kpɔm na waintsetse nyuiwo, gake wotse wain vevewo.
Wasigebha, wasusa amatshe kuso, wahlanyela kuso amavini amahle. Wakha umphotshongo ophakemeyo phakathi kwaso njalo wagebha lesikhamelo sewayini kuso. Walindela izithelo ezinhle, kodwa amavini athela ezimbi kuphela.
3 “Azɔ, Yerusalem ŋutsuwo kple Yuda ŋutsuwo, miese ale si nya la katã va yii, eya ta midrɔ̃ ʋɔnu le nye kple nye waingble la dome.
“Manje-ke lina abahlala eJerusalema lani madoda akoJuda, yahlulelani phakathi kwami lesivini sami.
4 Nu ka wòle be mawɔ na nye waingble la esi nyemewɔ nɛ o? Ekema nu ka ta mele mɔ kpɔm na waintsetse nyuiwo, gake wain vevewo ko wòtse?
Kuyini okudlula lapho okwakumele kwenziwe esivinini sami engingakwenzanga kuso na? Lapho ngangilindele izithelo ezinhle kungani sona sathela ezimbi kuphela na?
5 Azɔ magblɔ nu si wɔ ge mala nye waingble la na mi. Magbã kpɔ ɖa le eŋuti, eye lãwo aɖui. Magbã gli le eŋu ne amewo nafanyae.
Khathesi-ke sengizalitshela engizakwenza esivinini sami: Ngizasusa uthango lwaso; sizadilizwa. Ngizabhidliza umduli waso, sizagxotshwa ngezinyawo.
6 Mawɔe wòazu gbegbe, womake eƒe alɔwo alo aga eme o, eye ŋuwo kple aŋɔkawo amie ɖe afi ma. Made se na lilikpowo be womagadza tsi ɖe edzi azɔ o.”
Ngizasenza sibe liganga kungabikho ukuthenwa kumbe ukuhlakulwa; inkotha lameva kuzakhula kuso. Ngizalaya amayezi anganisi zulu kuso.”
7 Israel ƒe aƒee nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ƒe waingble, eye Yuda ŋutsuwoe nye eƒe dzidzɔ ƒe wainka siwo wòdo. Ekpɔ mɔ na afia nyui tsotso, ke ʋukɔkɔɖi wòkpɔ; ekpɔ mɔ na nu dzɔdzɔe wɔwɔ, ke konyifavi koe ɖi.
Isivini sikaThixo uSomandla yindlu ka-Israyeli; abantu bakoJuda bayinsimu eligugu kuye. Wayelindele okufaneleyo, kodwa wabona ukuchitheka kwegazi; endaweni yokulunga, wezwa ukukhala kosizi.
8 Baba na mi ame siwo le xɔ tsiam ɖe xɔ nu, eye wole agble tsiam ɖe agble nu be teƒe aɖeke megasusɔ o, be woawo ɖeɖe naxɔ anyigba la dzi!
Maye kini elengeza izindlu ngezindlu lihlanganise insimu ensimini kuze kusweleke indawo eseleyo, njalo lihlala lodwa elizweni.
9 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ka atam mese kple nye towo, “Ne xɔ gãwo mezu gbegbe, eye dziƒoxɔ gãwo mezu aƒedowo o fĩi!
UThixo uSomandla usetshilo ngisizwa wathi: “Ngeqiniso izindlu ezinengi zizakuba ngamanxiwa; ezinkulu ezinhle zisale zingaselamuntu ohlala kuzo.
10 Woakpɔ wain adzafi ɖeka kple afã pɛ ko le waingble agbleka ewo sɔŋ me, eye ne woƒã bli agba ɖeka la, bli kotoku ɖeka pɛ ko woakpɔ le eme.”
Izindima ezilitshumi zesivini zizathela ifatshi elilodwa lewayini, ihomeri lenhlanyelo lithele ihefa lamabele.”
11 Baba na mi, ame siwo fɔna fɔŋli henɔa ho ʋlim le aha muame nono me, eye mienɔa wain yome va se ɖe zãtiƒe, eye wòmua mi tsiɖitsiɖi.
Maye kulabo abavuka ngovivi ekuseni begijimela ukunatha utshwala; abaqhubekayo kuze kube phakathi kobusuku baze badakwe butshwala.
12 Kasaŋkuwo kple saŋkuwo ɖina le miaƒe kplɔ̃ɖoƒewo, axatsɛwo, kpẽwo kple wain bɔna ɖe eŋu, gake wometsɔ ɖeke le eme na Yehowa ƒe dɔwɔwɔwo alo ade bubu eƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwo ŋu o.
Balamachacho lemihubhe emadilini abo, amagedla, imihlanga, lewayini, kodwa kabazinaki izenzo zikaThixo, akukho nhlonipho yomsebenzi wezandla zakhe.
13 Eya ta nye amewo ayi ɖe aboyome le nugɔmemasemase ta; dɔwuame awu woƒe ame ŋkutawo, eye tsikɔ awu ame haho la.
Ngakho-ke abantu bami bazakuya ekuthunjweni ngenxa yokungazwisisi; izikhulu zabo zizabulawa yindlala lenengi labo lizakoma ngomhawu wamanzi.
14 Eya ta nuɖuɖu le yɔdo dzrom vevie, eye wòke eƒe nu ɖi baa, eya ta Yerusalem ƒe ame ŋkutawo kple ame hahoawo age dze eme kple woƒe dzidzɔkpɔkpɔwo kple aglotutuwo katã. (Sheol )
Ngakho indawo yabafileyo izakwelula imihlathi yayo, ikhamise umlomo wayo okungelamkhawulo; izikhulu zabo lenengi labo bawele phakathi labo bonke abaxokozelayo labazithokozisayo. (Sheol )
15 Ale woaɖiɖi ame ɖe anyi, woabɔbɔ amegbetɔƒomea ɖe anyi, eye woate dadalawo ƒe ŋku ɖe to.
Abantu bazakwehliselwa phansi, abantu bazathobekiswa, amehlo abaziphakamisayo athotshiswe.
16 Ke woado Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ɖe dzi le eƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ me, eye Mawu Kɔkɔe la aɖe eƒe kɔkɔenyenye afia to eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye me.
Kodwa uThixo uSomandla uzaphakanyiswa ngokwahlulela kwakhe okuhle; ubungcwele bukaNkulunkulu buzabonakala ngokulunga kwakhe.
17 Ekema alẽwo aɖu gbe abe woawo ŋutɔ ƒe lãnyiƒee wole ene; eye alẽviwo aɖu nu le kesinɔtɔwo ƒe aƒedowo me.
Lapho-ke izimvu zizakudla angathi kusemadlelweni azo, amazinyane adle emanxiweni ezinothi.
18 Baba na ame siwo tsɔ beble ƒe kawo de dzidada le hehem, eye wode kekehekawo nu vɔ̃ hele hehem,
Maye kulabo abahudula isono ngentambo zenkohliso lobubi kungathi kungamagoda enqola,
19 ame siwo gblɔna be “Mawu newɔ kaba. Nedo tsɔtsɔe eƒe dɔ be miakpɔe; Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la ƒe aɖaŋudede neva kaba ne mianyae.”
kulabo abathi, “UNkulunkulu kaphangise, kaphangisise umsebenzi wakhe ukuze siwubone. Kalisondele icebo loNgcwele ka-Israyeli kalize ukuze silazi.”
20 Baba na ame siwo yɔ vɔ̃ be nyui, eye woyɔ nyui be vɔ̃, ame siwo tsɔ viviti ɖɔli kekeli, eye wotsɔ kekeli ɖɔli viviti. Ame siwo yɔa veve be vivi, eye woyɔa vivi be veve.
Maye kulabo abathi okubi kuhle bathi okuhle kubi, ababeka umnyama esikhundleni sokukhanya; ukukhanya esikhundleni somnyama; ababeka okubabayo esikhundleni sokumnandi, okumnandi esikhundleni sokubabayo.
21 Baba na ame siwo bua wo ɖokuiwo nunyalawoe, eye wonye aɖaŋudelawo le woawo ŋutɔ ɖokuiwo gbɔ.
Maye kulabo abahlakaniphileyo emehlweni abo njalo besile ekuboneni kwabo.
22 Baba na ame siwo nye kalẽawo le wain gã nono me, eye wonye dziɖulawo le ahamuamewo tɔtɔ me,
Maye kulabo abangamaqhawe ekunatheni iwayini njalo bezintshantshu ekuhlanganiseni okunathwayo,
23 ame siwo xɔa zãnu, eye wotsoa afia ŋkunɔ na agɔdzelawo; ke ame siwo ƒe nya dzɔ la, wodea wo nya me.
abakhulula abalamacala ngenxa yokufunjathiswa. Kodwa banqabele abamsulwa imfanelo yabo.
24 Eya ta abe ale si dzo ƒe aɖe fiaa bee, eye gbe ƒuƒu bina le dzo me ene la, nenema kee woƒe kewo anyunyɔ, eye ya aƒo woƒe seƒoƒowo adzoe abe ʋuʋudedi ene, elabena wogbe Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe nufiame, eye woɖe alɔme le Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la ƒe nyawo ŋu,
Ngakho-ke, njengalokhu umlilo utshisa inhlanga, utshani obomileyo buphelela phakathi kwamalangabi, ngokunjalo impande zabo zizabola. Lamaluba abo aphephuke njengothuli; ngoba bawalile umthetho kaThixo uSomandla balidelela ilizwi loNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
25 Eya ta Yehowa ƒe dziku bi ɖe eƒe amewo ŋu. Ekɔ eƒe alɔ dzi, eye wòƒo wo ƒu anyi. Towo ʋuʋu kpekpekpe, eye ŋutilã kukuwo le abe gbeɖuɖɔ le aɖukpo dzi ene. To esiawo katã gbɔ hã la, eƒe dziku nu mefa o, eƒe alɔ gale dzi ko.
Ngakho ulaka lukaThixo luzavutha ebantwini bakhe; isandla sakhe siphakeme njalo uyabatshaya. Izintaba ziyanyikinyeka, izidumbu zabafileyo zinjengezibi ezindleleni. Ikanti kukho konke lokhu ulaka lwakhe kaluphelanga, isandla sakhe silokhu siphakanyisiwe.
26 Ekɔ aflaga dzi na didiƒe dukɔwo, eye wòlia aku na ame siwo le anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke. Kpɔ ɖa, wova kaba kple du!
Uphakamisela izizwe ezikude uphawu, ubatshayela ikhwelo abasemaphethelweni omhlaba. Nampa besiza ngokuphangisa langejubane!
27 Ɖeɖi mete wo dometɔ aɖeke ŋu alo nu nati kɔ nɛ o. Ɖeka pɛ hã medɔ akɔlɔ̃e alo dɔ alɔ̃ o. Alidziblanu metu le ɖeke ƒe ali o, eye tokota metso le ɖeke ƒe afɔ o.
Kakho omunye wabo odinwayo loba okhubekayo, kakho owozelayo kumbe olalayo, akukho bhanti elixegiswayo ekhalweni, akukho ntambo yenyathelo equmekileyo.
28 Woƒe datiwo le ɖaɖam, eye woku woƒe dawo me. Woƒe sɔwo ƒe afɔwo le abe dzosigbewo ene, eye woƒe tasiaɖamwo ƒe afɔwo le abe yali ene.
Imitshoko yabo ibukhali, wonke amadandili abo agotshisiwe; amasondo amabhiza abo afana lelitshe elilukhuni, amavili ezinqola zabo zokulwa anjengesivunguzane.
29 Woƒe gbeɖeɖe le abe dzata tɔ ene, eye woɖea gbe abe dzataviwo ene. Wotea gbe heléa nu, eye wotsɔa nu si wolé la dzonae, ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔe le wo si o.
Ukubhonga kwabo kufana lokwesilwane, babhonga njengezilwane ezikhulayo, bayabhavuma lapho bebamba inyamazana edliwayo, babaleke layo kungekho ongabemuka.
30 Gbe ma gbe la, woaɖe gbe ɖe edzi abe atsiaƒu ene. Ne ame aɖe nye kɔ kpɔ anyigba la, viviti kple hiã ko wòakpɔ, eye lilikpowo gɔ̃ hã ana kekeli nado viviti.
Ngalolosuku bazabhavumela phezu kwayo njengokubhavuma kolwandle. Njalo nxa umuntu ekhangela ilizwe, uzabona umnyama losizi; lelanga lizakwenziwa libe mnyama ngamayezi.
