UDutheronomi 2
1 “Sasesiphenduka siqonda enkangala ngendlela yoLwandle oluBomvu njengokulaywa kwami nguThixo. Okwesikhathi eside sasilokhu sibhoda ezweni lamaqaqa aseSeyiri.
Afei, yɛsan yɛn akyi de yɛn ani kyerɛɛ sare so wɔ baabi a Po Kɔkɔɔ no da hɔ sɛnea Awurade kyerɛɛ me sɛ menyɛ no. Yɛnantenantew faa Seir bepɔw man no ho nna bebree.
2 UThixo wasesithi kimi,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se,
3 ‘Selibhode labhoda ezweni lamaqaqa sekwanele; khathesi phendukani likhangele enyakatho.
“Moatwa afa saa ɔman a ɛda bepɔw yi so no ho mmere sann, enti monnan mo ani nkyerɛ atifi fam.
4 Nika abantu leziziqondiso: “Khathesi selizakwedlula elizweni labafowenu isizukulwane sika-Esawu, abahlala eSeyiri. Bazalesaba, kodwa libolimuka linanzelele.
Hyɛ ɔman no se, ‘Morebɛfa mo nuanom Edomfo, a wɔyɛ Esau asefo a wɔte Seir no asase so. Edomfo no besuro mo, nanso monhwɛ yiye.
5 Lingaboqala livuse impi ngoba angiyikulipha ilizwe labo, sengisitsho lesiqinti esilingana unyawo olulodwa. Nganika u-Esawu ilizwe laseSeyiri elamaqaqa ukuthi libe ngelakhe.
Monnhyɛ wɔn abufuw a ɛde ɔko bɛba na meremfa wɔn nsase no mu biara mma mo; mpo, baabi a mode mo anan besisi, efisɛ mede Seir bepɔw kurow ama Esau sɛ nʼatenae.
6 Lizababhadala ngesiliva libhadalela ukudla elizakudla lamanzi elizawanatha.”’
Aduan biara a mubedi ne nsu biara a mobɛnom no, momfa dwetɛ ntua wɔn ho ka.’”
7 UThixo uNkulunkulu wenu uyibusisile imisebenzi yezandla zenu. Ulikhokhele kulolonke uhambo lwenu phakathi kwenkangala enkulu kangaka. Iminyaka engamatshumi amane uThixo wenu ube lani, kalizange liswele lutho.
Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ahyira mo nsa ano nnwuma nyinaa. Wahwɛ mo so wɔ mo akwantu wɔ sare kakraa yi nyinaa so. Saa mfe aduanan yi nyinaa mu no, Awurade aka mo ho na hwee ho anhia mo.
8 Ngakho sahamba sedlula ezihlotsheni zethu isizukulwane sika-Esawu abahlala eSeyiri. Saphenduka sisuka emgwaqweni wase-Arabha okhwela usuka e-Elathi le-Eziyoni-Gebheri, sahamba ngomgwaqo wenkangala yaseMowabi.
Yetwa faa yɛn nuanom a wɔyɛ Esau asefo a wɔte Seir ho no. Yɛfaa Araba subon kwan no a efi Elat ne Esion-Geber no so na yɛbɛfaa Moab sare so kwan no so.
9 UThixo wasesithi kimi, ‘Lingahlukuluzi amaMowabi loba ukubavusela impi, ngoba angiyikulinika ngitsho lesiqintshana selizwe labo. Senginike ele-Ari isizukulwane sikaLothi ukuba kube yisabelo sabo.’”
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Monnhaw Moabfo no anaa monhyɛ wɔn abufuw a ɛde ɔko bɛba, na meremfa wɔn nsase no mu biara mma mo. Efisɛ mede Ar ama Lot asefo sɛ agyapade.”
10 (Ama-Emi ake ahlala khonapho, abantu abalamandla njalo abanengi kakhulu, futhi bebade njengama-Anakhi.
Kan no na Emifo na wɔte hɔ. Na wɔsoso na wɔdɔɔso a wɔwoware te sɛ Anakfo no.
11 Labo njengama-Anakhi babebalwa njengamaRefayi, kodwa amaMowabi ayebabiza ngokuthi ngama-Emi.
Wɔn nso, na wɔyɛ abran sɛ Anakfo no ara pɛ, a na wɔfrɛ wɔn Refaitefo, nanso Moabfo de, na wɔfrɛ wɔn Emifo.
12 AmaHori ayekade ehlala eSeyiri, kodwa adudulwa yisizukulwane sika-Esawu. Babhubhisa amaHori ayelapho basebesakha endaweni yawo, njengalokho okwenziwa ngabako-Israyeli ezweni abaliphiwa nguThixo ukuba libe yisabelo sabo.)
Kan no na Horifo na wɔte Seir, nanso Esau asefo no tuu wɔn fii hɔ. Wɔsɛee Horifo no tenaa wɔn anan mu sɛnea Israel yɛɛ wɔ asase a Awurade de maa wɔn sɛ wɔn agyapade no so no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
13 “UThixo wasesithi, ‘Khathesi sukani lichaphe isiHotsha saseZeredi.’ Ngakho sachapha isihotsha.
Na Awurade kae se, “Afei, sɔre na kotwa Sered bon no.” Enti yekotwaa obon no.
14 Kwedlula iminyaka engamatshumi amathathu leyisificaminwembili sisuke eKhadeshi Bhaneya sisiyachapha isiHotsha saseZeredi. Ngalesosikhathi, amadoda ebutho alesosizukulwane ayesebhubhile, njengokufungelwa kwabo nguThixo.
Na nna dodow a yɛde nantew fi Kades-Barnea besii sɛ yetwaa Sered bon no yɛ mfirihyia aduasa awotwe. Saa bere no, na mmarima a wɔanyinyin yiye a wobetumi akɔ ɔko no nyinaa awuwu wɔ sare no so sɛnea Awurade kaa ho ntam no.
15 UThixo wamelana labo waze wabatshabalalisa bonke ezihonqweni.
Na Awurade nsa tiaa wɔn ara kosi sɛ wɔn nyinaa wuwuu wɔ wɔn atenae hɔ.
16 Kwathi-ke sekufe abokucina emadodeni ebutho,
Saa nnipa yi mu akofo a otwa to wuu no pɛ,
17 uThixo wathi kimi,
na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se,
18 ‘Lamuhla uzakwedlula emangweni waseMowabi ngase-Ari.
“Nnɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wofa Ar wɔ Moab mantam mu.
19 Ekufikeni kwakho kuma-Amoni, ungawahlukuluzi loba ukuwavusela impi, ngoba angiyikukunika loba yiliphi ilizwe lama-Amoni. Ngilinike lesisizukulwane sikaLothi ukuba kube yisabelo sabo.’”
Na sɛ wudu Amonfo mu a, nhaw wɔn anaa nhyɛ wɔn abufuw a ɛde ɔko bɛba, efisɛ meremma mo Amorifo nsase no bi. Mede ama Lot asefo sɛ agyapade.”
20 (Leli lalo laliphathwa njengelizwe lamaRefayi ayehlala khonapho; kodwa ama-Amoni ayebabiza ngokuthi ngamaZamzumu.
Saa beae hɔ na abran akɛse a na Amonfo frɛ wɔn Samsumifo no te kan no.
21 Babengabantu abalamandla bebanengi kakhulu, njalo bebade njengama-Anakhi. UThixo wababhubhisa phambi kwama-Amoni, wona abadudulayo njalo ahlala endaweni yabo.
Na wɔyɛ nnipa ahoɔdenfo a wɔdɔɔso na wɔwoware te sɛ Anakfo no. Na Awurade sɛee Samsumifo no wɔ Amonfo anim ma wɔpam wɔn tenaa wɔn anan mu.
22 UThixo wayenze njalo esizukulwaneni sika-Esawu, esasiseSeyiri, ekubhubhiseni kwakhe amaHori phambi kwabo. Babadudula basebehlala endaweni yabo kuze kube lamuhla.
Saa ara na Awurade sɛee Horifo wɔ Esau asefo a na wɔte Seir no anim ma wɔpam wɔn, tenaa wɔn anan mu de besi nnɛ yi.
23 Kanti-ke okunjengama-Avi ayehlala emizini ekhatshana njengeGaza, amaKhafithori ayevela eKhafithori ababhubhisa asehlala endaweni yabo.)
Na Awifo a wɔtenaa nkuraa nkuraa trɛw koduu Gasa no nso, Kaftorfo a wofi Kaftor bɛsɛee wɔn, tenaa wɔn anan mu.
24 “‘Suka khathesi uchaphe uDonga lwase-Arinoni. Uyabona, senginikele esandleni sakho uSihoni umʼAmori inkosi yaseHeshibhoni kanye lelizwe lakhe. Qalisa ukuthatha lelilizwe ulwe impi laye.
“Sɔre kotwa Arnon Subon. Mede Hesbonhene Sihon a ɔyɛ Amorini no ne man ahyɛ wo nsa. Kɔtow hyɛ ne so, na monko, na fa.
25 Kusukela lamuhla ngizaqalisa ukuthelela izizwe zonke ngaphansi kwezulu ukukwesaba. Zizakuzwa indumela yakho zethuke zesabe zihlukuluzeke ngenxa yakho.’
Efi nnɛ yi ara, mede mo ho suro ne hu bɛhyɛ aman a wɔwɔ ɔsoro ase nyinaa mu. Wɔbɛte mo ho nsɛm na wɔn ho bɛpopo na mo nti, wɔanya adwenemhaw esiane mo nti.”
26 Kusukela enkangala yaseKhedemothi ngathumela izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yaseHeshibhoni ngisithi akubekhona ukuthula njalo ngisithi,
Mituu abɔfo fii Kedemot sare so kɔɔ Hesbonhene Sihon nkyɛn asomdwoe so kɔka kyerɛɛ no se,
27 ‘Sivumele sidabule elizweni lakho. Sizahamba ngomgwaqo omkhulu kuphela, asiyikuphambukela ngakwesokudla loba ngakwesokunxele.
“Ma yentwa mu mfa wo man mu ha. Yɛbɛfa ɔtempɔn no so tee; yɛremman mfa benkum anaa nifa.
28 Sithengisele ukudla lamanzi okunatha ngentengo yesiliva. Sivumele nje sedlule ngezinyawo,
Tɔn aduan ma yenni na tɔn nsu nso ma yɛnnom. Nea yɛrehwehwɛ ara ne ɔkwan a wobɛma yɛn ama yɛanantew atwa mu,
29 njengezizukulwane zika-Esawu ezihlala eSeyiri, kanye lamaMowabi ahlala e-Ari, asenzela khona, size sichaphe uJodani singene elizweni uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu asinika lona.’
sɛnea Esau asefo a na wɔte Seir ne Moabfo a na wɔte Ar yɛɛ yɛn no akosi sɛ yebetwa Yordan akɔ asase a Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, de rema yɛn no so.”
30 Kodwa uSihoni inkosi yaseHeshibhoni yala ukuthi sedlule. Ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu wayeyenze umoya wakhe waba lobuqholo lenhliziyo yakhe yaba lukhuni ukuze amnikele ezandleni zenu, njengoba esekwenzile khathesi.
Nanso Hesbonhene Sihon amma yɛantwa mu wɔ hɔ. Efisɛ na Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ayɛ ne honhom sisirii, apirim ne koma sɛnea ɔnam so de no bɛhyɛ mo nsam, sɛnea wayɛ no nnɛ yi.
31 UThixo wathi kimi, ‘Khangela, sengiqalisile ukunikela uSihoni lelizwe lakhe kuwe. Qalisa khathesi ukunqoba uthathe ilizwe lakhe.’
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Hwɛ, mafi ase de Sihon ne ne man ahyɛ wo nsam. Afei, fi ase na di wɔn so, na fa nʼasase no.”
32 Kwathi uSihoni ephuma lebutho lakhe ukusihlangabeza ekuhlaseleni eJahazi,
Bere a Sihon ne ne dɔm behyiaa yɛn sɛ wɔne yɛn rebɛko wɔ Yahas no,
33 uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu wamnikela kithi sambulala, yena kanye lamadodana akhe lebutho lakhe lonke.
Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, yii no maa yɛn ma yɛbobɔɔ ɔno, ne mmabarima ne nʼasraafo nyinaa hwehwee.
34 Ngalesosikhathi sathatha amadolobho akhe sawabhidliza, amadoda, abesifazane kanye labantwana. Kakho owasilayo.
Na yɛfaa ne nkurow nyinaa saa bere no sɛee ne mmarima, mmea ne mmofra a yɛannyaw obiara.
35 Kodwa izifuyo lakho konke esakuthumbayo emadolobheni esawanqobayo sazithathela khona.
Mmom, nyɛmmoa ne asade ahorow a ɛwɔ nkurow a yedii so no mu no de, yɛsoa kɔe.
36 Kusukela e-Aroweri emngceleni wodonga lwase-Arinoni, kanye lokusuka edolobheni elisedongeni, kusiya khonale eGiliyadi, akuladolobho elalingamelana lathi. UThixo uNkulunkulu wethu wawanikela wonke kithi.
Efi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon ano ne kurow a ɛda subon no mu no, ne mpo, de kosi Gilead no, kurow biara nni hɔ a na ɛsodi yɛ den ma yɛn; Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn de ne nyinaa hyɛɛ yɛn nsa.
37 Kodwa kusiya ngokulaya kukaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, alizange lingene elizweni lama-Amoni, kumbe elizweni elisemingceleni yomfula uJabhoki loba lelo elilamadolobho asemaqaqeni.”
Nanso, yɛankɔ Amorifo asase ne asase a ɛda Asubɔnten Yabok ho ne mmepɔw no so nkurow no baabiara a Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn hyɛɛ yɛn sɛ yɛnnkɔ so no so.
