Elkosini Nahum anisoadehunu nwoma a ɛyɛ nkɔmhyɛ a ɛfa Ninewe ho.
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.
Awurade yɛ ninkunfoɔ ne aweretɔ Onyankopɔn, Awurade tɔ wedeɛ na abufuo ahyɛ no ma. Awurade tɔ nʼatamfoɔ so wedeɛ na nʼabufuo tena wɔn so.
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.
Awurade bo kyɛre fu, na ne tumi so, na ɔtwe ɔfɔdifoɔ aso. Ne kwan wɔ ntwahoframa ne ahum mu, omununkum yɛ ne nan ase mfuturo.
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.
Ɔteatea ɛpo na ɔma ɛwe; ɔma nsubɔntene nyinaa wewe. Basan ne Karmel twintwam na Lebanon frɔmfrɔmyɛ nso kusa.
5 Towo ʋuʋu kpekpekpe, eye togbɛwo lolõ gbanaa le eŋkume, anyigba kple edzinɔlawo katã ʋuʋu le eŋkume.
Mmepɔ woso biribiri nʼanim na nkokoɔ nane. Asase, ewiase ne wɔn a wɔwɔ mu nyinaa woso nʼanim.
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.
Hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina nʼabufuo ano? Hwan na ɔbɛtumi atena nʼabufuhyeɛ mu? Nʼabufuo hwie te sɛ ogya; abotan yam wɔ nʼanim.
7 Yehowa nyo, elabena enye sitsoƒe le xaxa me! Eléa be na ame si xɔa edzi sena.
Awurade yɛ, ɔyɛ ahohia mu dwanekɔbea. Nʼani wɔ wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to no so no so.
8 Ke atsrɔ̃ Ninive kple tɔɖɔɖɔ, eye wòanya eƒe futɔwo aɖo ɖe viviti me.
Nanso, ɔnam nsuyire nwanwasoɔ so bɛma Ninewe aba awieeɛ. Ɔbɛtaa nʼatamfoɔ akɔduru esum kabii mu.
9 Nugbe ɖe sia ɖe si woɖo ɖe Yehowa ŋu la, mana wòadze edzi o, ke boŋ gbegblẽ mava na wo zi evelia o.
Ɛpɔ biara a wɔbɛbɔ atia Awurade no, ɔbɛsɛe no; ɔhaw biara remma ne mprenu so.
10 Woabla wo ɖe ŋuve me, woano woawo ŋutɔ ƒe wain amu, eye woabi abe gbe ƒuƒu ene.
Wɔde nkasɛɛ bɛkyekyere wɔn ho, na ɛberɛ a wɔn nsa aboro wɔn no wɔbɛhye wɔn sɛ wira dwaneeɛ a wɔaboa ano.
11 O Ninive, mewòe ame si ɖo nugbe ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eye wòɖo aɖaŋu vlo na amewo la do tso.
Ao, Ninewe, wo mu na deɛ ɔbɔ ɛpɔ bɔne tia Awurade na ɔtu fo bɔne no firie.
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.
Deɛ Awurade seɛ nie: “Ɛwom sɛ wɔwɔ apamfoɔ a wɔdɔɔso deɛ, nanso wɔbɛsɛe wɔn ama wɔayera. Ao Yuda, ɛwom sɛ mama ɔhaw aba wo so, nanso merenyɛ saa bio.
13 Azɔ la, maŋe kɔkuti le wò kɔ, eye matu ka wò tso bablawo me.”
Afei, mɛbubu kɔnnua a ɛda wo kɔn mu na matete nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn no mu.”
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.”
Ninewe, Awurade aka ɔhyɛ asɛm a ɛfa wo ho: “Worennya asefoɔ a wo din bɛda wɔn so. Mɛsɛe nsɛsodeɛ a wɔasene ne ahoni a wɔaguo a ɛsisi wʼabosonnan mu no. Mɛsiesie wʼadamena ɛfiri sɛ wadane ayɛ atantanneɛ.”
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.
Hwɛ mmepɔ no so, deɛ a ɔde asɛmpa no ba no anammɔn ɔno na ɔka asomdwoesɛm! Ao, Yuda di wʼafahyɛ na di wɔ bɔhyɛ so. Nnipa bɔne rentu wo so sa bio; Wɔbɛsɛe wɔn pasaa.
