Yeremiya 3

1 “Omusajja bw’agoba mukazi we, omukazi oyo n’agenda n’afuuka ow’omusajja omulala, omusajja we alimukomyawo nate? Ensi eba teyonoonekedde ddala nnyo? Naye obadde nga malaaya, ng’olina abasajja bangi; naye kaakano oyagala okukomawo gye ndi?” bw’ayogera Mukama.

“Sɛ ɔbarima gyaa ne yere na ɔbaa no kɔware ɔbarima foforɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima no sane kɔ ɔbaa no nkyɛn anaa? Ɛremma asase no ho ngu fi koraa anaa? Nanso, wo ne adɔfoɔ bebree abɔ adwaman, na seesei deɛ wobɛsane aba me nkyɛn anaa?” Awurade na ɔseɛ.

2 Yimusa amaaso go olabe ku ntikko y’obusozi. Waliwo ekifo we bateebakira naawe? Ku mabbali g’ekkubo we watulanga n’olinda abasajja ng’oli nga Omuwalabu mu ddungu; n’olyoka oyonoona ensi n’obwenzi bwo n’ekibi kyo.

“Ma wʼani so hwɛ nkokoɔ no so. Baabi wɔ hɔ a wɔntoo wo monnaa da anaa? Wotenaa kwankyɛn twɛnee adɔfoɔ, wotenaa sɛ mmoahwɛfoɔ a wɔdi atutena wɔ anweatam so. Woagu asase no ho fi wode wʼadwamammɔ ne wʼamumuyɛ na ayɛ.

3 Noolwekyo enkuba kyevudde eziyizibwa, n’enkuba eya ttoggo n’etetonnya. Naye era otemya nga malaaya tokwatibwa nsonyi.

Enti wɔatwe obosuo asan, na osutɔberɛ nsuo antɔ. Nanso wʼanim ayɛ sɛ odwamanfoɔ a ɔmfɛre hwee; wʼani nwu hwee.

4 Tewakaŋŋamba nti Kitange ggwe mukwano gwange okuva mu buto bwange,

Nanso, woka kyerɛ me sɛ: ‘Mʼagya, mʼadamfo firi me mmabunuberɛ mu,

5 onoonyiigira ddala emirembe gyonna, olisunguwala emirembe gyonna? Bw’otyo bw’oyogera, naye okoze ebibi byonna ebisoboka.

wobo bɛfu biribiara anaa? Wʼabofuhyeɛ no bɛkɔ so daa anaa?’ Sei na wokasa, nanso woyɛ bɔne nyinaa sɛdeɛ wotumi.”

6 Mu nnaku z’obufuzi bwa kabaka Yosiya Mukama yayogera nange n’aŋŋamba nti, “Olabye Isirayiri etali neesigwa ky’ekoze? Agenze ku buli kasozi na buli wansi w’omuti oguyimiridde ne yeeyisa ng’omukazi omwenzi.

Ɔhene Yosia adedie berɛ so no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Woahunu deɛ Israel a ɔnni nokorɛ no ayɛ? Wakɔ nkokoɔ nyinaa so ne dua adendan nyinaa ase akɔsɛe awadeɛ wɔ hɔ.

7 Nalowooza nti, Bw’alimala okukola bino byonna agenda kudda gye ndi naye teyadda, era muganda we atali mwesigwa Yuda n’akiraba.

Mesusuu sɛ, anka wayɛ yeinom nyinaa akyi no, ɔbɛsane aba me nkyɛn, nanso wamma, na ne nuabaa Yuda a ɔno nso nka nokorɛ no hunuiɛ.

8 Yalaba nti bwe namala okugoba Isirayiri eyanvaako, ne muwa n’ebbaluwa ey’okumugoba olw’obwenzi bwe. Naye ate ne ndaba muganda we atali mwesigwa Yuda nga taliimu kutya, naye n’agenda n’akola obwenzi.

Memaa Israel a ɔnni nokorɛ no awaregyaeɛ nwoma na mepamoo no ɛsiane nʼawaresɛe abrabɔ. Nanso mehunuu sɛ ne nuabaa Yuda a ɔnni nokorɛ no ansuro; ɔno nso kɔbɔɔ awaresɛeɛ bra.

9 Awo obwenzi bwe bwatuuka ne bumwanguyira nnyo n’ayenda n’asinza amayinja n’ebikonge.

Esiane sɛ Israel adwamammɔ anyɛ no asɛm hia enti, ɔde efi kaa asase no na ɔne aboɔ ne nnua bɔɔ adwaman.

10 Naye wadde nga byonna bimaze okubaawo, muganda we Yuda atali mwesigwa, teyakomawo gye ndi na mutima gwe gwonna, naye yali alimbalimba,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Yeinom nyinaa akyi no, ne nuabaa Yuda a ɔnni nokorɛ no ansane nʼakyi nokorɛm amma me nkyɛn. Ɔde nʼanim na ɛkyerɛeɛ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.

11 Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, Isirayiri asudde obwesigwa, mutukuvu okusinga Yuda atali mwesigwa.

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Israel a ɔnni nokorɛ no tene sene Yuda nkontompo ni.

12 Genda obuulire abantu b’omu bukiikakkono obubaka buno, obagambe nti, “‘Komawo ggwe Isirayiri, eyanvaako,’ bw’ayogera Mukama. ‘Siribatunuuliza busungu kubanga ndi waakisa,’ bw’ayogera Mukama; ‘Sirisiba busungu ku mwoyo emirembe gyonna.

Kɔ, fa wʼani kyerɛ atifi fam kɔka saa nsɛm yi kyerɛ wɔn: “‘Sane wʼakyi, Israel a ɔnni nokorɛ,’ Sei na Awurade seɛ, ‘Meremmuna nkyerɛ wo bio, ɛfiri sɛ meyɛ mmɔborɔhunufoɔ,’ sei na Awurade seɛ, ‘Me bo renfu afebɔɔ.

13 Mukkirize bukkiriza ekibi kyammwe, mwajeemera Mukama Katonda wammwe, mwasinza bakatonda abalala, wansi wa buli muti oguyimiridde, era ne mutaŋŋondera,’” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Gye wo afɔdie to mu, woayɛ dɔm atia Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, woakyekyɛ wʼadɔeɛ mu ama ananafoɔ anyame wɔ dua biara a adendan ase, na woanyɛ ɔsetie amma me,’” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.

14 “Mukomeewo mmwe abaana abanvaako,” bw’ayogera Mukama; “kubanga nze bbammwe, era ndibalondamu omu ku omu okuva mu buli kibuga, babiri babiri okuva mu buli kika mbaleete ku lusozi Sayuuni.

“Monsane mo akyi, mo akyirisanfoɔ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “ɛfiri sɛ meyɛ mo kunu. Mɛyi wo; ɔbaako bɛfiri kuro mu na mmienu afiri abusuakuo mu, na mede mo aba Sion.

15 Era ndibawa abasumba abakola ng’omutima gwange bwe gwagala, abalibakulembera mu kumanya era ne mu kutegeera.

Afei mɛma mo nnwanhwɛfoɔ a wɔda mʼakoma so, wɔn a wɔde nimdeɛ ne nteaseɛ bɛkyerɛ mo ɛkwan.

16 Ennaku bwe zirituuka nga mwaze era nga muli bangi nnyo mu nsi,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “abantu baliba tebakyayogera ku Ssanduuko y’Endagaano. Baliba tebakyagirowooza nako, okugijjukira; oba okulumwa emitima olw’obutaba nayo wadde okukola endala.

Saa nna no mu, sɛ mo dɔɔso bebree wɔ asase no so a,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “nnipa renka bio sɛ, ‘Awurade yɛn ani agyina apam adaka no.’ Ɛremma wɔn adwene mu anaa wɔrenka saa bio; na wɔrenyɛ apam adaka foforɔ nso.

17 Ebbanga lyonna Yerusaalemi kiriyitibwa Entebe ya Mukama ey’Obwakabaka, amawanga gonna mwe ganaakuŋŋaaniranga okumugulumiza Mukama mu Yerusaalemi era tebaliddayo kugoberera mitima gyabwe minyoomi.

Saa ɛberɛ no, wɔbɛfrɛ Yerusalem Awurade Ahennwa, na amanaman nyinaa bɛhyia wɔ Yerusalem abɛkamfo Awurade din. Na wɔrenni wɔn akoma bɔne a ɛma wɔn yɛ asoɔden no akyi bio.

18 Mu nnaku ezo ennyumba ya Yuda eryegatta ku nnyumba ya Isirayiri, era bombi awamu baliva mu nsi ey’omu bukiikakkono ne bajja mu nsi gye ndiwa bakitammwe okuba omugabo.

Saa nna no mu, Yudafie bɛka Israel efie ho, na wɔabɔ mu afiri atifi fam asase bi so aba asase a mede maa mo agyanom sɛ agyapadeɛ no so.

19 “Nze kennyini nalowooza “nga nayagala okubayisanga nga batabani bange, era mbawe ensi eyeegombebwa, nga gwe mugabo ogusinga obulungi mu mawanga gonna. Nalowooza nti mulimpita ‘Kitammwe,’ ne mutanvaako ne mwongera okungoberera.

“Mʼankasa mekaa sɛ, ‘Anka ɛbɛyɛ me anigye sɛ mɛyɛ mo sɛ mma na mama mo asase a ɛyɛ, agyapadeɛ a ɛdi mu ma ɔman biara.’ Mesusuiɛ sɛ mobɛfrɛ me ‘Agya’ na monnane mo ho mfiri mʼakyi.

20 Naye ng’omukazi atali mwesigwa eri bba bw’abeera, bwe mutyo bwe mutabadde beesigwa gye ndi, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Nanso, sɛdeɛ ɔbaa a ɔnni ne kunu nokorɛ no, saa ara na moanni me nokorɛ, Ao Israel efie,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.

21 Okukaaba kw’Abaana ba Isirayiri kuwuliddwa ku ntikko z’ensozi ezitaliiko kantu, nga bakaaba n’okwegayirira, kubanga baatambulira mu kukola ebibi, ne beerabira Mukama Katonda waabwe.

Wɔte esu bi wɔ nkokoɔ no so, ɛyɛ Israelfoɔ agyaadwotwa ne nkotosrɛ, ɛfiri sɛ wɔakyeakyea wɔn akwan na wɔn werɛ afiri Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn.

22 “Mukomeewo mmwe abantu abatali beesigwa, nnaabawonya ne mbafuula abeesigwa.” Ne mugamba nti, “Weewaawo tujja kudda gy’oli, kubanga ggwe Mukama Katonda waffe.

“Monsane mmra, ɔyera mma; mɛsa mo akyirisane yadeɛ no.” “Aane, yɛbɛba wo nkyɛn, ɛfiri sɛ wo ne Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn.

23 Ddala okusuubira obuyambi okuva mu nsozi gye twasinzizanga bakatonda abalala temuli kantu. Ddala mu Mukama Katonda waffe mwe muli obulokozi bwa Isirayiri.

Nokorɛm, ahoni hooyɛ wɔ nkokoɔ ne mmepɔ so no yɛ nnaadaa; nokorɛm, Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn mu na Israel nkwagyeɛ wɔ.

24 Naye okuva mu buto bwaffe bakatonda abo abalala abatagasa balidde ne bamalawo ebibala bakitaffe bye baamalirako amaanyi gaabwe, embuzi zaabwe, n’ente zaabwe, batabani baabwe ne bawala baabwe.

Ɛfiri yɛn mmɔfraase, anyame huhuo adi yɛn agyanom nsa ano adwuma so aba, wɔn nnwankuo ne anantwie, wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa.

25 Leka tugalamire, ng’ensonyi zitutta, n’obuswavu bwaffe butuyitiridde kubanga twonoonye eri Mukama Katonda waffe, ffe ne bakadde baffe, okuva mu buto bwaffe n’okutuusa ku lunaku luno; kubanga tetugondedde ddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda waffe.”

Momma yɛmfa yɛn aniwuo nneda fam na yɛn ahohora nkata yɛn so. Yɛayɛ bɔne atia Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn, yɛn ne yɛn agyanom; ɛfiri yɛn mmɔfraase bɛsi ɛnnɛ yɛanyɛ ɔsetie amma Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn.”
