< Yona 3 >
1 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yona omulundi ogwokubiri, n’amugamba nti,
Afei, Awurade asɛm baa Yona nkyɛn ne mprenu so sɛ,
2 “Genda mu kibuga ekinene Nineeve obalabule n’obubaka buno bwe nkuwa.”
“Kɔ Ninewe kuropɔn kɛseɛ no mu, na kɔpae mu ka asɛm a mede rema wo yi.”
3 Awo Yona n’agondera Mukama n’agenda e Nineeve. Nineeve kyali kibuga kya kitiibwa nnyo era nga kitwala ennaku ssatu okukibuna kyonna.
Yona yɛɛ ɔsetie maa Awurade asɛm no, na ɔkɔɔ Ninewe. Na Ninewe yɛ kuropɔn titire a wɔde nnansa na ɛhunu hɔ nyinaa.
4 Ku lunaku olwasooka Yona yatambula olunaku lwonna ng’agenda alangirira nti, “Bwe waliyitawo ennaku amakumi ana, Nineeve kirizikirira.”
Ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, Yona hyɛnee kuropɔn no mu, na ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ paee mu kaa sɛ, “Aka adaduanan na wɔadane Ninewe abutu.”
5 Abantu b’omu Nineeve ne bakkiriza Katonda, ne balangirira okusiiba ne beesiba ebibukutu, bonna okuva ku asinga ekitiibwa okutuuka ku asembayo okuba owa wansi.
Ninewefoɔ gyee Onyankopɔn diiɛ. Wɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔn nyinaa bɛdi abuada, ɛfiri ɔkɛseɛ so kɔsi ɔketewa so, na wɔafirafira ayitoma.
6 Amawulire gano bwe gaatuuka ku kabaka w’e Nineeve, n’ayimuka ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka, ne yeeyambulamu ekyambalo kye, ne yeesiba ekibukutu, n’atuula mu nfuufu.
Ɛberɛ a Ninewehene tee asɛm no, ɔsɔre firii nʼahennwa so, ɔworɔɔ nʼahenetadeɛ, Ɔfiraa ayitoma, na ɔtenaa mfuturo mu.
7 Kabaka teyakoma awo, wabula n’ayisa n’etteeka n’alibunya Nineeve yonna nga ligamba nti, Olw’ekiragiro kya kabaka n’abakungu be: “Tewaba muntu yenna, wadde ensolo oba eggana n’ekisibo, okukomba ku mmere wadde amazzi;
Afei, ɔmaa wɔbɔɔ dawuro wɔ Ninewe sɛ, “Mmara a ɛfiri ɔhene ne nʼatitire hɔ nie: “Obiara, sɛ ɔyɛ onipa anaa aboa, anantwikuo anaa nnwankuo, mmfa hwee nka nʼano; mma ɔnnnidi anaa ɔnnom.
8 naye buli muntu n’ekisibo bibikkibwe n’ebibukutu, era bikaabirire nnyo Katonda, era birekeraawo okwonoona n’okukola eby’obukambwe.
Na mmom nnipa ne mmoa mfa ayitoma nkata wɔn ho. Obiara mfa anibereɛ nsu mfrɛ Onyankopɔn. Wɔn mfiri wɔn akwammɔne so, na wɔnnyae basabasayɛ.
9 Ani amanyi? Oboolyawo Katonda anaakyusa ku kibonerezo kye, kye yatusalira n’akkakkanya obusungu bwe n’atatuzikiriza.”
Hwan na ɔnim? Ebia, Onyankopɔn bɛhunu yɛn mmɔbɔ, na watwe nʼabufuhyeɛ no a ɔnam so rebɛsɛe yɛn no asan.”
10 Awo Katonda bwe yalaba kye bakoze, ne baleka n’ebibi byabwe, n’abasonyiwa n’atabatuusaako kibonerezo, kye yali agambye okubatuusaako.
Na Onyankopɔn hunuu sɛdeɛ wɔyɛeɛ ne sɛdeɛ wɔsane firii wɔn akwammɔne ho no, ɔhunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ, na wansɛe wɔn sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no.
