< Yoel 2 >
1 Miku kpẽ le Zion! Miku aʋadzedze ƒe kpẽ la be woasee le nye to kɔkɔe la dzi! Anyigbadzitɔwo katã nedzo nyanyanya kple vɔvɔ̃, elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke la tu aƒe vɔ.
Vuthelani uphondo eZiyoni, lihlabe umkhosi entabeni yami engcwele; kabathuthumele bonke abahlali belizwe, ngoba usuku lweNkosi luyeza, ngoba luseduze.
2 Anye viviti kple blukɔ ƒe ŋkeke, eye lilikpo kple viviti tsiɖitsiɖi ado. Abe ale si ŋdikekeli klẽna ɖe towo tame ene la, nenema ke aʋakɔ gã sẽŋu aɖe avae. Ame siawo la, womekpɔ wo tɔgbi kpɔ o, eye womagakpɔ wo tɔgbi kpɔ le xexea me ƒe dzidzimewo dome o!
Usuku lomnyama lobumnyama, usuku lwamayezi lomnyama onzima, njengemadabukakusa lembese phezu kwezintaba; isizwe esikhulu lesilamandla, kakuzanga kube khona esinjengaso kusukela endulo, futhi kakusayikuba khona emva kwaso kuze kube yiminyaka yezizukulwana lezizukulwana.
3 Dzo bibi le nu fiam le wo ŋgɔ eye dzo ƒe aɖewo le wo megbe. Anyigba la le ŋgɔ abe Edenbɔ ene gake ezua gbegbe le wo megbe. Naneke mate ŋu asi le enu o.
Umlilo uyaqeda phambi kwaso, langemva kwaso kuvutha ilangabi. Phambi kwaso ilizwe lifanana lesivande seEdeni, kodwa ngemva kwaso liyinkangala yencithakalo; yebo kakulakuphunyuka kuso.
4 Wodzena abe sɔwo ene eye woƒua du abe sɔdolawo ene.
Isimo saso sinjengesimo samabhiza, lanjengabagadi bamabhiza ngokunjalo bazagijima.
5 Wole kpo tim le towo tame, woƒe afɔziwo le ɖiɖim abe tasiaɖamwo tɔ ene eye abe dzoe le gbe ƒuƒu bim ene. Wole du ƒum abe asrafo kalẽtɔwoe le du dzi yina ɖe aʋa ene.
Bazakweqa njengomsindo wezinqola ezingqongeni zezintaba, njengomsindo welangabi lomlilo oqeda izidindi, njengabantu abalamandla abahlelelwe impi.
6 Dukɔwo kpɔe hedzo nyanyanya eye woƒe mowo fu tititi le vɔvɔ̃ ta.
Phambi kobuso babo abantu bazakuba lobuhlungu; bonke ubuso buzanyukumala.
7 Wozɔ yi ŋgɔ kple kalẽ abe aʋawɔlawo ene eye woflɔ gliawo abe asrafowo ene. Wo katã yi ŋgɔgbe eye ɖeke meto miame alo ɖusime o.
Bazagijima njengamaqhawe, bakhwele imiduli njengamadoda empi, bahambe ngulowo lalowo ngezindlela zakhe, kabayikuphambuka emikhondweni yabo.
8 Ɖeke mebe ɖe nɔvia xa o. Ame sia ame le enɔƒe pɛpɛpɛ Aʋawɔnu aɖeke mate ŋu anɔ te ɖe wo ŋu o.
Kabasunduzani omunye lomunye; bazahamba ngulowo lalowo ngomgwaqo wakhe omkhulu; lapho bewela phezu kwesikhali, kabayikulimala.
9 Wo katã lũ ɖe du la dzi; woflɔ gli la zɔ etame hege ɖe aƒewo kple xɔwo me abe ale si fiafitɔ toa fesre nue ene.
Bazahaluzela bedabula umuzi, bagijime phezu komduli, bakhwele bangene ezindlini, bangene ngamawindi njengesela.
10 Anyigba ʋuʋu kpekpekpe eye dziƒo dzo nyanyanya le wo ŋgɔ. Ɣe kple ɣleti do viviti eye ɣletiviwo megaklẽ o.
Umhlaba uzanyikinyeka phambi kwabo, amazulu athuthumele; ilanga lenyanga kube mnyama, lezinkanyezi zigodle ukukhanya kwazo.
11 Yehowa ŋutɔ le eƒe aʋakɔ la ŋgɔ le gbe ɖem. Esiae nye eƒe aʋakɔ gã la eye ame siwo le eƒe gbeɖeɖe dzi wɔm la nye ame sesẽwo. Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke la anye ŋkeke gã, ŋɔdzi kple vɔvɔ̃ anɔ eŋu. Ame kae ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe enu?
Njalo iNkosi izakhupha ilizwi layo phambi kwebutho layo, ngoba inkamba yayo inkulu kakhulu; ngoba ilamandla eyenza ilizwi layo; ngoba usuku lweNkosi lukhulu, luyesabeka kakhulu; ngubani-ke ongalumela?
12 “Eya ta Yehowa be, ‘Mitrɔ ɖe ŋunye azɔ, kple miaƒe dzi blibo. Miva kple nutsitsidɔ, avifafa kple konyifafa.’”
Ngakho lakhathesi, itsho iNkosi, phendukelani kimi ngenhliziyo yenu yonke, langokuzila ukudla, langokukhala inyembezi, langokulila.
13 Midze miaƒe dziwo, menye miaƒe awuwo o. Mitrɔ ɖe Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ŋu, elabena amenuveve kple nublanuikpɔkpɔ bɔ ɖe esi. Medoa dziku kabakaba o, eƒe dɔ me nyo, eye metsia dzi be yeahe to na ame o.
Lidabule inhliziyo yenu, hatshi izembatho zenu, liphendukele eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wenu, ngoba ilesisa lesihawu, iphuza ukuthukuthela, njalo inkulu ngomusa, iyazisola ngobubi.
14 Ame kae nya be ɖewohĩ atrɔ ave mía nu eye wòagblẽ yayra ɖi na mí? Ekema míagatsɔ nuɖuvɔsa kple nunovɔsa vɛ na Yehowa, mia Mawu la.
Ngubani owaziyo, ingaphenduka izisole, itshiye isibusiso ngemva kwayo, umnikelo wokudla lomnikelo wokunathwayo eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wenu.
15 Miku kpẽ le Zion! Miɖo nutsitsidɔ kɔkɔe eye miyɔ takpekpe tɔxɛ.
Vuthelani uphondo eZiyoni, yehlukanisani ukuzila ukudla, libize umhlangano onzulu,
16 Miƒo ameawo nu ƒu; mikɔ ameha la ŋuti, ame tsitsiwo, ɖeviwo kple vi nonowo siaa. Ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ nedo tso eƒe xɔ me eye ŋugbetɔ nedo go tso xɔ gã me.
libuthanise abantu, lingcwelise ibandla, lihlanganise abadala, libuthanise abantwana, labamunya amabele; umyeni kaphume ekamelweni lakhe, lomakoti ekamelweni lakhe.
17 Nunɔla siwo subɔna le Yehowa ŋkume la netsi tsitre ɖe ameawo kple vɔsamlekpui la dome, afa avi ado gbe ɖa be, “Yehowa, kpɔ nublanui na wò dukɔ; mègana wò domenyinu nazu fewuɖunu kple ŋukpenanu le dukɔwo dome o. Nu ka ta dukɔwo anɔ gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Afi ka woƒe Mawu la le?’”
Kakuthi abapristi, izikhonzi zeNkosi, bakhale inyembezi phakathi kwekhulusi lelathi, bathi: Yekela abantu bakho, Nkosi; unganikeli ilifa lakho ehlazweni, ukuthi abahedeni bababuse. Bazatsholoni phakathi kwezizwe ukuthi: Ungaphi uNkulunkulu wabo?
18 Ekema Yehowa aʋã ŋu ɖe dukɔ la nu, eye wòakpɔ nublanui na eƒe amewo.
Khona iNkosi izatshisekela ilizwe layo, ihawukele abantu bayo.
19 Yehowa aɖo eŋu be, “Kpɔ ɖa, mele bli, wain yeye kple ami ɖom ɖe mi be miaɖi ƒo. Nyemagawɔ mi mianye fewuɖunu na dukɔwo azɔ o.
Yebo iNkosi izaphendula ithi ebantwini bayo: Khangelani, ngizalithumela amabele lewayini elitsha lamafutha, ukuthi lisuthe ngakho; kangisayikulenza inhlamba phakathi kwezizwe.
20 “Maɖe asrafo siwo tso dzigbeme la ɖa le mia gbɔ, matrɔ wo aɖo ɖe kuɖiɖinyigba kple gbegbe. Matsɔ ŋgɔgbenɔlawo ade ɣedzeƒeƒu la me eye matsɔ megbenɔlawo ade ɣetoɖoƒeƒu la me. Ale woƒe ʋeʋẽ kũu la axɔ anyigba la dzi.” Vavã, Yehowa wɔ nukunu triakɔ aɖe.
Kodwa ngizasusela khatshana lani okuvela enyakatho, ngikuxotshele elizweni elomileyo leliyinkangala, ubuso bakho buqonde ngaselwandle lwempumalanga, lokucina kwakho ngaselwandle olungemuva; njalo kwenyuke ivumba lakho, kwenyuke iphunga lakho elibi, ngoba kwenze izinto ezinkulu.
21 Nye dukɔ, mègavɔ̃ o; kpɔ dzidzɔ eye nàtso aseye azɔ elabena Yehowa wɔ nukunu gãwo na wò.
Ungesabi, lizwe, jabula uthokoze, ngoba iNkosi yenze izinto ezinkulu.
22 Mi gbemelãwo katã, migavɔ̃ o, elabena lãnyiƒewo agada ama abe tsã ene. Atiwo agatse ku eye gbotiwo kple wainkawo agatse kplanyaa abe tsã ene.
Lingesabi, zinyamazana zeganga, ngoba amadlelo enkangala asehlumile; ngoba isihlahla sithela isithelo saso, umkhiwa levini kunike amandla akho.
23 O, mi Ziontɔwo, dzi nedzɔ mi le Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la me! Elabena tsidzadza si wòɖo ɖa la nye eƒe tsɔtsɔke ƒe dzesi. Adame kple kelemetsiwo adza ɖe ɖoɖo nu pɛpɛpɛ.
Lani bantwana beZiyoni, thabani lithokoze eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wenu; ngoba ilinikile izulu lensewula ngokulunga, yalinisela izulu, izulu lensewula lezulu lamuva njengakuqala.
24 Lu ayɔ lugbɔƒe fũu, eye wain kple ami asɔ gbɔ ɖe nudzraɖoƒewo.
Lamabala okubhulela azagcwala amabele, lezikhamelo zewayini ziphuphume ngewayini elitsha lamafutha.
25 “Magaɖo ƒe siwo ʋetsuviwo, ʋetrawo, abɔwo kple ŋɔwo ɖu nu la teƒe na mi. Woawoe nye nye aʋakɔ gã si medɔ ɖe mia ŋu.
Njalo ngizabuyisela kini iminyaka eyadliwa yintothoviyane, yisikhonyane, leqhwagi, lenswabanda, ibutho lami elikhulu engalithumela phakathi kwenu.
26 Miaɖu nu aɖi ƒo abe tsã ene eye miakafu Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la. Miakafu Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ, ame si wɔ nukunu siawo katã na mi. Ŋu magakpe nye dukɔ azɔ o.
Njalo lizakudla lokudla, lisuthe, lidumise ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu wenu, oliphethe ngokumangalisayo. Njalo abantu bami kabayikuyangiswa lanininini.
27 Mianyae be mele afii le nye dukɔ Israel dome, eye mianyae hã be nye Yehowa, ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ koe nye miaƒe Mawu. Ŋu magakpe nye dukɔ la azɔ o.
Njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngiphakathi kukaIsrayeli, lokuthi ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu, njalo kakho omunye. Njalo abantu bami kabayikuyangiswa lanininini.
28 “Le nu siawo megbe la, matrɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ akɔ ɖe amewo katã dzi! Mia viŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo agblɔ nya ɖi, miaƒe ame tsitsiwo aku drɔ̃ewo eye miaƒe ɖekakpuiwo akpɔ ŋutegawo.
Kuzakuthi emva kwalokho ngithele uMoya wami phezu kwayo yonke inyama; njalo amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu azaprofetha; abadala benu baphuphe amaphupho, amajaha enu abone imibono.
29 Matrɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ la akɔ ɖe nye subɔlawo katã dzi, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa dzi le ŋkeke mawo me
Yebo, laphezu kwenceku laphezu kwencekukazi ngizathela uMoya wami ngalezonsuku.
30 eye mana dzesi wɔnukuwo nado ɖe dziƒo kple anyigba dzi, siwo anye ʋu, dzo kple dzudzɔ babla kɔtɔɔ.
Njalo ngizaveza izimangaliso emazulwini lemhlabeni, igazi, lomlilo, lezinsika zentuthu.
31 Ɣe ado viviti eye ɣleti atrɔ zu ʋu hafi Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkeke gã, dziŋɔ la nava ɖo.
Ilanga lizaphenduka libe ngumnyama, lenyanga ibe ligazi, lungakafiki usuku lweNkosi olukhulu lolwesabekayo.
32 Ame sia ame si yɔa Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkɔa la, akpɔ ɖeɖe eye xɔname anɔ Zion towo dzi kple Yerusalem kple ame siwo Aƒetɔ yɔ la dome abe ale si Aƒetɔ la do ŋugbee la ene.
Kuzakuthi-ke loba ngubani ozabiza ibizo leNkosi asindiswe; ngoba entabeni yeZiyoni leJerusalema kuzakuba khona ukukhululwa, njengokutsho kweNkosi, laphakathi kwabaseleyo iNkosi ezababiza.
