< Koseya 1 >
1 Buno bwe bubaka bwa Mukama bwe yawa Koseya mutabani wa Beeri mu mulembe gwa Uzziya, n’ogwa Yosamu, n’ogwa Akazi n’ogwa Keezeekiya, nga be bakabaka ba Yuda, ne mu mulembe gwa Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Yowaasi, nga ye kabaka wa Isirayiri.
Ɛberɛ a Usia, Yotam, Ahas ne Hesekia yɛ ahemfo wɔ Yuda, na Yoas babarima Yeroboam di ɔhene wɔ Israel no, Awurade de saa nsɛm yi baa Beeri babarima Hosea nkyɛn.
2 Awo Mukama bwe yasooka okwogera eri Koseya, yamulagira nti, “Ggenda owase omukazi malaaya, omuzaalemu abaana, era banaayitibwanga abaana aboobwamalaaya, kubanga ensi eyitirizza okukola ekibi eky’obwenzi, n’eva ku Mukama.”
Ɛberɛ a Awurade dii ɛkan kasa faa Hosea so no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔware odwamanfoɔ, na wo ne no nwo, ɛfiri sɛ ɔman no di adwamammɔ ho fɔ na wɔnam so atete wɔ ne Onyankopɔn ntam.”
3 Awo n’awasa Gomeri muwala wa Dibulayimu, n’aba olubuto, n’amuzaalira omwana wabulenzi.
Enti, ɔwaree Diblaim babaa Gomer, na ɔnyinsɛnee, woo ɔbabarima maa no.
4 Mukama n’agamba Koseya nti, “Mmutuume erinnya Yezuleeri, kubanga nnaatera okubonereza ennyumba ya Yeeku, olw’okuyiwa omusaayi gw’abantu ab’e Yezuleeri, era ndimalawo obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “To ne din Yesreel, ɛfiri sɛ, merebɛtwe ɔhene Yehu fie aso, de atua awudie a ɔdii wɔ Yesreel no so ka. Na mede Israel ahennie bɛba awieeɛ.
5 Ku lunaku olwo omutego gwa Isirayiri ndigumenyera mu Kiwonvu kya Yezuleeri.”
Saa ɛda no, mɛbubu Israel tadua wɔ Yesreel bɔnhwa no mu.”
6 Gomeri n’aba olubuto olulala, n’azaala omwana wabuwala. Mukama n’agamba Koseya nti, “Mmutuume erinnya Lolukama, kubanga ennyumba ya Isirayiri ndiba sikyagyagala, si kulwa nga mbasonyiwa.
Gomer nyinsɛnee bio, na ɔwoo ɔbabaa. Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Hosea sɛ, “To ne din Lo-ruhama ɛfiri sɛ, merenna me dɔ adi nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ mma bio, na meremfa wɔn ho nnkyɛ wɔn koraa.
7 Naye ab’ennyumba ya Yuda ndibaagala, era ndibalokola, si na kasaale, newaakubadde ekitala, newaakubadde entalo, newaakubadde embalaasi newaakubadde abeebagala embalaasi, wabula nze kennyini Mukama Katonda waabwe nze ndibaagala era ne mbalokola.”
Nanso, mɛyi me dɔ akyerɛ Yudafoɔ. Me Awurade wɔn Onyankopɔn, mede me tumi bɛgye wɔn afiri wɔn atamfoɔ nsam a meremfa tadua, akofena anaa ɔko anaa apɔnkɔ ne apɔnkɔsotefoɔ.”
8 Awo Gomeri bwe yamala okuggya Lolukama ku mabeere, n’aba olubuto olulala n’azaala omwana wabulenzi.
Ɛberɛ a Gomer twaa Lo-ruhama nufoɔ akyi no, ɔwoo ɔba barima foforɔ.
9 Mukama n’ayogera nti, “Mmutuume erinnya Lowami, kubanga temukyali bantu bange, nange sikyali Katonda wammwe.
Na Awurade kaa sɛ, “To ne din Lo-ami, ɛfiri sɛ monnyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ na mennyɛ mo Onyankopɔn.
10 “Naye ekiseera kirituuka abantu ba Isirayiri ne baba bangi ng’omusenyu ogw’oku nnyanja, ogutayinzika kupimibwa newaakubadde okubalibwa olw’obungi bwagwo. Mu kifo ky’okuyitibwa abatali bantu bange, baliyitibwa, baana ba Katonda omulamu.
“Nanso, Israelfoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ mpoano anwea a wɔntumi nkane wɔn. Beaeɛ a wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Monnyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ’ no, wɔbɛka sɛ, ‘Moyɛ Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ mma.’
11 Abantu ba Yuda baliddamu okwegatta n’abantu ba Isirayiri ne beerondamu omukulembeze, ne bava mu buwaŋŋanguse, era olunaku lwa Yezuleeri luliba lukulu.”
Na Yudafoɔ ne Israelfoɔ bɛka abɔ mu bio, na wɔbɛyi ɔkwankyerɛfoɔ baako ama wɔn, na wɔn nyinaa bɛsane afiri nnommum no mu aba. Saa ɛda no bɛyɛ da kɛseɛ ama Yesreel.”
