< Yesaya 51 >
1 “Miɖo tom, mi ame siwo tia dzɔdzɔenyenye yome, eye miedia Yehowa. Mikpɔ agakpe si me woɖe mi tsoe kple fukpekpe si me woɖe mi le la dzi.
“Lalelani kimi lina elilandela ukulunga lidinga loThixo: Khangelani edwaleni elacezulwa kulo lasegodini lamatshe elambiwa kulo;
2 Mikpɔ mia fofo Abraham kple Sara, ame siwo dzi mi la dzi. Esi meyɔe la, eya ɖeka koe, gake meyrae, eye mewɔe wòzu ame geɖe.
khangelani ku-Abhrahama, uyihlo, lakuSara owalizalayo. Ekumbizeni kwami wayemunye, ngambusisa ngamandisa.
3 Yehowa afa akɔ na Zion godoo, eye anye kɔ akpɔ eƒe gli gbagbãwo kple dɔmetɔtrɔ. Atrɔ eƒe gbegbe wòazu Edenbɔ, eƒe kuɖinyigbawo abe Yehowa ƒe abɔ ene. Dzidzɔ kple vivisese anɔ afi ma eye akpedada kple hadzidzi hã anɔ afi ma.
Ngeqiniso uThixo uzaduduza iZiyoni abe lesihawu kuwo wonke amanxiwa alo; uzakwenza izinkangala zalo zibe njenge-Edeni, amazwe alo alugwadule afane lesivande sikaThixo. Ukuthaba lentokozo kuzafunyanwa kulo, kanye lokubonga lelizwi lokuhlabela.
4 “Nye amehawo, miɖo tom, nye dukɔ, miaƒe to nenɔ ŋunye: Nufiame atso gbɔnye, eye nye ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe dɔdrɔ̃ anye kekeli na dukɔwo.
Lalelani kimi, bantu bami; ungizwe lawe sizwe sami: Kuzaphuma umthetho uvela kimi; ukulunga kwami kuzakuba yikukhanya ezizweni.
5 Nye dzɔdzɔenyenye gbɔna kple du, nye ɖeɖe le mɔ dzi gbɔna, eye nye abɔ ahe afia nyui tsotso vɛ na dukɔwo. Ƒukpowo akpɔ mɔ nam, eye woalala kple mɔkpɔkpɔ anɔ nye alɔ sinu kpɔm.
Ukulunga kwami kusondela ngokuphangisa, insindiso yami iyeza, ingalo yami izaletha ukulunga ezizweni. Izihlenge zizakhangela kimi, zilinde zithembe amandla ami.
6 Mifɔ mo dzi ne miakpɔ dziƒo, mide mo to ne miakpɔ anyigba. Dziƒowo nu ava yi abe dzudzɔ ene. Anyigba anyunyɔ abe avɔ ene, eye edzinɔlawo aku abe tagbatsutsu ene, ke nye xɔname anɔ anyi ɖikaa, eye nye dzɔdzɔenyenye nu matsi gbeɖe o.
Phakamiselani amehlo enu phezulu emazulwini, likhangele lasemhlabeni phansi; amazulu azanyamalala njengentuthu; umhlaba uzaguga njengesigqoko abakhe kuwo bafe njengempukane. Kodwa insindiso yami izakuba khona kuze kube nininini, ukulunga kwami akuyikuphela.
7 “Miɖo tom, mi ame siwo nya nu si le dzɔdzɔe. Mi ame siwo ƒe dziwo me nye se la le, migavɔ̃ amewo ƒe mokaname o, eye woƒe dzu megado ŋɔdzi na mi o,
Ngizwani lina elikwaziyo okulungileyo lina bantu abagcina umthetho wami ezinhliziyweni zenu: Lingakwesabi ukugconwa ngabantu, kumbe lethuswe yizithuko zabo.
8 elabena gbagblaʋui aɖu wo abe avɔ ene, eye ŋɔ aɖu wo abe ɖetifu ene. Ke nye dzɔdzɔenyenye la anɔ anyi tegbee, eye nye xɔname anɔ anyi tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.”
Ngoba inondo izabadla njengesigqoko; impethu ibadle njengewulu. Kodwa ukulunga kwami kuzakuba khona kuze kube nininini; lensindiso yami ikhona kuzizukulwane zonke.”
9 Nyɔ, nyɔ! O! Yehowa ƒe alɔ, ne nàtsɔ ŋusẽ ado. Nyɔ abe le tsã ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo kple blemaŋɔliwo ene. Ɖe menye wòe fli Rahab kakɛkakɛ, eye nètsɔ nu ƒo ɖe lã dziŋɔ la oa?
Vuka, vuka, wena ngalo kaThixo; uzigqokise ngamandla akho! Vuka njengasezinsukwini zendulo, lanjengakuzizukulwane zakudala. Kayisuwe yini owaquma uRahabi waba yiziqa, wagwaza lesilo lesiyana na?
10 Ɖe menye wòe na atsiaƒu, tɔ goglo la me tsiwo mie, eye nèta mɔ ɖe atsiaƒu me be ame siwo woɖe la nato edzi ayi oa?
Kawusuwe yini owomisa ulwandle, amanzi atshona kakhulu, wenza umgwaqo ezinzikini zolwandle ukuze abahlengiweyo bachaphe na?
11 Yehowa ƒe ame siwo woɖe la atrɔ agbɔ. Woage ɖe Zion kple aseyetsotso, eye dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ anye fiakuku anɔ woƒe tawo dzi. Vivisese kple dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ asu wo si, eye nuxaxa kple hũɖeɖe abu ɖe wo.
Labahlengiweyo bakaThixo bazabuyela. Bazangena eZiyoni behlabelela, intokozo engapheliyo izakuba ngumqhele emakhanda abo. Bazakuba lokuthula lenjabulo, usizi lokububula kuzaphela.
12 “Nye, nye koe faa akɔ na mi. Ame kae nènye be nèle vɔvɔ̃m na amegbetɔ siwo le abe gbe ko ene?
“Mina, mina uqobo, nginguye oliduduzayo. Ungubani wena ukuba wesabe abantu abafayo, amadodana abantu, abutshani nje,
13 Nu ka ta nèŋlɔ Yehowa, wò Wɔla, si keke dziƒowo me, eye wòɖo anyigba ƒe agunu anyi la be? Nu ka ta ŋɔdzi léa wò gbe sia gbe le ameteɖeanyila ƒe dɔmedzoe ta, ame si ɖoe kplikpaa be yeagblẽ nu? Afi ka ameteɖeanyila ƒe dɔmedzoe la le azɔ?
uze ukhohlwe uThixo, uMenzi wakho, owendlala amazulu wabeka lezisekelo zomhlaba, ukuthi uhlale ngokwesaba okungapheliyo nsuku zonke ngenxa yolaka lomncindezeli, ohlose ukuchitha na? Ngoba lungaphi na ulaka lomncindezeli?
14 Woaɖe ga gamenɔla siwo le vɔvɔ̃m la kpuie. Womaku ɖe gaxɔ me loo alo abolo nahiã wo o,
Izibotshwa ezitshotshobeleyo zizakhululwa masinyazana, aziyikufela emajele azo, kumbe ziswele ukudla.
15 elabena nyee nye Yehowa, wò Mawu, ame si de adã atsiaƒu me be ƒutsotsoewo dze agbo. Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔe nye eŋkɔ.
Ngoba mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wakho, ophehla ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome, ibizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
16 Metsɔ nye nyawo de nuwò, eye meɣla wò ɖe nye asi ƒe vɔvɔli te. Nye ame si tsɔ dziƒowo ɖo wo teƒe heɖo anyigba gɔme anyi, eye megblɔ na Zion be, ‘Nye dukɔ nènye.’”
Ngifake amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho ngakwembesa ngomthunzi wesandla sami, mina engabeka amazulu endaweni yawo, ngabeka izisekelo zomhlaba, njalo othi kuZiyoni, ‘Lina lingabantu bami.’”
17 Nyɔ, nyɔ! O! Yerusalem, fɔ, wò ame si ƒe dɔmedzoekplu le Yehowa ƒe asi me. Wò ame si no nu muame la wòvɔ ƒioƒioƒio, kplu si nana amewo zɔna sɔgɔsɔgɔ.
Vuka, vuka! Phakama wena Jerusalema, wena onathe enkezweni esandleni sikaThixo inkezo yolaka lwakhe, wena oyikhoce wafika enzeceni zayo; inkezo eyenza amadoda adiyazele.
18 Viŋutsu siwo katã wòdzi la ɖeke meli afia mɔe o. Viŋutsu siwo katã wònyi la, ɖeke meli alé eƒe alɔnu o.
Kuwo wonke amadodana eliwazeleyo, kayikho eyayingalikhokhela; kuwo wonke amadodana elawondlayo, kayikho eyayingalibamba ngesandla.
19 Dzɔgbevɔ̃e evee dzɔ ɖe dziwò, ame kae ate ŋu afa akɔ na wò? Gbegblẽ kple tsɔtsrɔ̃, dɔwuame kple yi ƒo go wò, ame ka ate ŋu afa akɔ na wò.
Lezizingozi ezimbili zikwehlele; ngubani ongakududuza na? Incithakalo lokubhujiswa, indlala lenkemba, ngubani ongakududuza na?
20 Nu te viwò ŋutsuwo ŋu. Womlɔ mɔtata ɖe sia ɖe ƒe dzogoewo dzi abe avugbɔ̃e si ɖo mɔ me la ene. Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe kple wò Mawu la ƒe mokaname ɖi ƒo na wo,
Amadodana akho asephele amandla, aselala ezihlokweni zemigwaqo yonke njengebhalabhala elibanjwe ngumambule. Agcwele ulaka lukaThixo lokukhuza kukaNkulunkulu wakho.
21 eya ta ɖo to afii, wò ame si kpe hiã, eye nèmu aha, evɔ mèno wain hã o.
Ngakho-ke zwana lokhu wena ohluphekayo, lodakisiweyo kodwa kungasingewayini.
22 Ale wò Aƒetɔ, Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, wò Mawu si ʋli eƒe dukɔ ta la be, “Kpɔ ɖa, mexɔ kplu si na nèle mumum sɔgɔsɔgɔ la le asiwò. Màgano nye dɔmedzoe ƒe nu muame la le kplu sia me azɔ gbeɖe o.
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi bakho, uNkulunkulu wakho ovikela abantu bakhe: “Khangela, sengiyisusile esandleni sakho inkezo ekwenza udiyazele; leyonkezo engeyolaka lwami, awuyikunatha ngayo futhi.
23 Matsɔe ade asi na wò fuwɔamela siwo gblɔna na wò be, ‘Mlɔ anyi ne míazɔ dziwò ayi’, eye nèwɔ wò dzime abe anyigba kple mɔdodo ene be woato edzi ayi.”
Ngizayibeka ezandleni zabakuhluphayo, abathi kuwe, ‘Cambalala ukuze sihambe phezu kwakho.’ Wena-ke wenza umhlane wakho waba njengenhlabathi, lanjengomgwaqo okungahanjwa kuwo.”
