Nahum 1
1 Esiae nye nyagblɔɖi si Mawu ɖe fia Nyagblɔɖila Nahum, Elkositɔ, le ŋutega me tso nu si ava dzɔ ɖe Ninive dzi la ŋu, eye wòŋlɔe ɖe agbalẽ sia me.
Umthwalo weNineve. Ugwalo lombono kaNahume umElikoshi.
2 Yehowa nye Mawu ʋãŋu kple hlɔ̃biala. Ebiaa hlɔ̃, eye wòyɔ fũu kple dɔmedzoe. Yehowa biaa hlɔ̃ eƒe ketɔwo, eye wòléa dziku ɖi na eƒe futɔwo.
INkosi inguNkulunkulu olomona lophindiselayo; iNkosi ingumphindiseli, njalo ilolaka; iNkosi ingumphindiseli ezitheni zayo, igcinela izitha zayo ulaka.
3 Yehowa medoa dziku kaɖikaɖi o, ŋusẽ triakɔ le esi, eye magbe tohehe na agɔdzela o. Eƒe mɔwo to ahom kple ya sẽsewo me, eye lilikpowoe nye eƒe afɔ ƒe ʋuʋudedi.
INkosi iyaphuza ukuthukuthela, njalo yinkulu ngamandla, kayiyikumkhulula lokumkhulula olecala; iNkosi, indlela yayo isesivunguzaneni lesiphepheni, lamayezi aluthuli lwenyawo zayo.
4 Eblu ɖe atsiaƒu ta wòmie, eye wòna tɔsisiwo me ƒu kplakplakpla. Basan kple Karmel ƒe lãnyiƒe damawo zu gbegbe, eye Lebanon ƒe ave damawo zu dzogbe.
Ikhuza ulwandle, ilwenze lome, yomise yonke imifula: IBashani iyabuna, leKharmeli, leluba leLebhanoni liyabuna.
5 Towo ʋuʋu kpekpekpe, eye togbɛwo lolõ gbanaa le eŋkume, anyigba kple edzinɔlawo katã ʋuʋu le eŋkume.
Izintaba ziyanyikinyeka phambi kwayo, lamaqaqa ayancibilika; lelizwe liyaphakama phambi kwayo, lomhlaba, labo bonke abahlala kuwo.
6 Ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe eƒe dziku nu? Ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe eƒe dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ la nu? Ekɔ eƒe dɔmedzoe ɖe anyi abe dzo ene, eye agakpewo kaka le eŋkume.
Ngubani ongema phambi kwentukuthelo yayo? Njalo ngubani ongema ekuvutheni kolaka lwayo? Intukuthelo yayo iyathululeka njengomlilo, lamadwala adilizwe yiyo.
7 Yehowa nyo, elabena enye sitsoƒe le xaxa me! Eléa be na ame si xɔa edzi sena.
INkosi ilungile, iyinqaba ngosuku lwenhlupheko; iyabazi abathembela kuyo.
8 Ke atsrɔ̃ Ninive kple tɔɖɔɖɔ, eye wòanya eƒe futɔwo aɖo ɖe viviti me.
Kodwa ngesikhukhula esiphuphumayo izaqeda indawo yakho, lobumnyama buxotshane lezitha zayo.
9 Nugbe ɖe sia ɖe si woɖo ɖe Yehowa ŋu la, mana wòadze edzi o, ke boŋ gbegblẽ mava na wo zi evelia o.
Lenza amacebo bani amelane leNkosi? Yona izakwenza isiphetho esipheleleyo; ukuhlupheka kakuyikuvuka ngokwesibili.
10 Woabla wo ɖe ŋuve me, woano woawo ŋutɔ ƒe wain amu, eye woabi abe gbe ƒuƒu ene.
Ngoba besathandelene njengameva, bedakiwe njengezidakwa, bazaqedwa njengamabibi omileyo ngokugcweleyo.
11 O Ninive, mewòe ame si ɖo nugbe ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eye wòɖo aɖaŋu vlo na amewo la do tso.
Kuphumile kuwe onakana okubi emelene leNkosi, umcebisi omubi.
12 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Togbɔ be wosɔ gbɔ, eye kpeɖeŋutɔwo le wo si hã la, wo katã woatsrɔ̃, eye wo nu ava ayi. O Yuda, togbɔ be mede abi ŋuwò hã la, nyemagade abi ŋuwò azɔ o.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Loba bevikelekile, langokunjalo bebanengi, kanti ngokunjalo bazaqunywa, lapho esedlula. Loba ngikuhluphile, kangisayikukuhlupha.
13 Azɔ la, maŋe kɔkuti le wò kɔ, eye matu ka wò tso bablawo me.”
Ngoba khathesi ngizakwephula ijogwe lakhe lisuke kuwe, ngiqamule izibopho zakho.
14 Yehowa de se tso wò Ninive ŋuti be: “Womayɔ wò ŋkɔ ɖe dzidzime aɖeke ŋuti o. Mafli miaƒe aklamakpakpɛwo, eye magbã legba siwo mieli ɖe miaƒe mawuwo ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Maɖe yɔdo na mi, elabena mieganyo na naneke o.”
Njalo iNkosi ilayile ngawe ukuthi kakusayikuhlanyelwa lutho lwebizo lakho; ngizaquma izithombe ezibaziweyo lezithombe ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa ziphume endlini yabonkulunkulu bakho; ngizakwenza ingcwaba lakho; ngoba udelelekile.
15 Kpɔ ɖa, dɔlawo tso towo dzi gbɔna kple nya nyui, eye wole gbeƒã ɖem ŋutifafa! O Yuda, ɖu wò ŋkekenyuiwo, eye nàxe wò adzɔgbeɖefewo. Ame vɔ̃ɖiwo magava aha wò azɔ o, elabena woatsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ.
Khangelani ezintabeni izinyawo zoletha izindaba ezinhle, omemezela ukuthula! Wena Juda, gubha imikhosi yakho, khokha izifungo zakho; ngoba omubi kasayikudabula kuwe futhi, uqunyiwe ngokupheleleyo.
