UHezekheli 11
1 Lapho-ke uMoya wangiphakamisela phezulu wangisa esangweni lendlu kaThixo elikhangele empumalanga. Khonapho ekungeneni kwesango kwakulamadoda angamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, njalo phakathi kwawo ngabona uJazaniya indodana ka-Azuri kanye loPhelathiya indodana kaBhenayiya, abakhokheli babantu.
Afei, honhom no pagyaa me de me baa Awurade efie ɛpono a ani kyerɛ apueeɛ fam no ano. Na mmarima aduonu enum wɔ hɔ, na mehunuu Asur babarima Yaasania ne Benaia babarima Pelatia a wɔyɛ nnipa no ntuanofoɔ.
2 UThixo wathi kimi, “Ndodana yomuntu, laba yibo abantu abenza amacebo amabi, benika lezeluleko ezimbi kulelidolobho.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, yeinom ne mmarima a wɔrebɔ pɔ bɔne na wɔtu fo bɔne wɔ kuropɔn yi mu.
3 Bathi, ‘Masinyane nje akuyikuba yiso na isikhathi sokwakha izindlu? Idolobho leli liyimbiza yokupheka, njalo thina siyinyama.’
Wɔka sɛ, ‘Ɛberɛ a wɔde sisi afie nnuru so anaa? Kuropɔn no ayɛ sɛ dadesɛn, ɛnna yɛayɛ ɛnam a dadesɛn no bɔ yɛn ho ban.’
4 Ngakho-ke phrofetha okubi ngabo; phrofetha ndodana yomuntu.”
Ɛno enti hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn. Hyɛ nkɔm onipa ba.”
5 Lapho-ke uMoya kaThixo weza kimi wangitshela ukuba ngithi, Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Lokho yikho wena okutshoyo, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, kodwa mina ngiyakwazi okusengqondweni yakho.
Afei, Awurade Honhom baa me so na ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ. Menim deɛ moreka, ɛfiri sɛ menim nsusuiɛ a ɛwɔ mo adwene mu.
6 Sewabulala abantu abanengi phakathi kwedolobho leli wagcwalisa imigwaqo yalo ngabafileyo.”
Moakunkum nnipa bebree wɔ kuropɔn yi mu, na mode afunu ahyɛ ne mmɔntene so ma.
7 Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: “Izidumbu oziphosele lapho ziyinyama njalo idolobho leli liyimbiza, kodwa wena ngizakuxotshela ngaphandle kwalo.
“Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Kuro no yɛ dadesɛn deɛ, nanso emu ɛnam no yɛ nnipa a mode atirimuɔden akunkum wɔn apete hɔ. Ɛno enti, mɛpam mo afiri mu.
8 Inkemba uyayesaba, njalo inkemba yiyo engizayiletha ukuba imelane lawe, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
Mosuro akofena, na ɛno ara na mede bɛba mo so, sei na Awurade seɛ.
9 Ngizakuxotshela ngaphandle kwedolobho ngikunikele kwabezizweni ngiphinde ngikujezise.
Mɛpam mo afiri kuropɔn no mu na mede mo ahyɛ ananafoɔ nsa, na matwe mo aso.
10 Uzabulawa ngenkemba, njalo ngizakwahlulela emingceleni yako-Israyeli. Lapho-ke uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.
Mobɛtotɔ akofena ano, na mɛbu mu atɛn wɔ Israel asase so. Afei, mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
11 Idolobho leli kaliyikuba yimbiza yakho, kumbe wena ube yinyama phakathi kwalo; ngizakwahlulela emingceleni yako-Israyeli.
Saa kuropɔn yi remmɔ mo ho ban sɛdeɛ dadesɛn bɔ ɛnam a ɛwɔ mu no ho ban; Mɛbu mo atɛn wɔ Israel asase so.
12 Njalo uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo, ngoba izimiso zami kawuzilandelanga kumbe wagcina imithetho yami kodwa ulandele izenzo zezizwe ezikuhanqileyo.”
Na mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no, ɛfiri sɛ, moanni mʼahyɛdeɛ so, moapo me mmara, na deɛ aman a atwa mo ahyia no yɛ no na mo nso moyɛ.”
13 Kwathi lapho ngisaphrofitha, uPhelathiya indodana kaBhenayiya wafa. Ngakho ngathi mbo phansi ngobuso ngakhala ngelizwi eliphezulu ngisithi, “Awu, Thixo Wobukhosi! Uzaqothula insalela ka-Israyeli na?”
Afei ɛberɛ a megu rehyɛ nkɔm no, Benaia babarima Pelatia wuiɛ. Na mede mʼanim butuu fam suu denden sɛ, “Aa Otumfoɔ Awurade, wobɛtɔre Israel nkaeɛfoɔ yi ase koraa anaa?”
14 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
15 “Ndodana yomuntu, abafowenu, abafowenu abayizihlobo zakho zegazi kanye lendlu yonke ka-Israyeli, yibo labo abantu baseJerusalema abathe ngabo: ‘Bakhatshana loThixo kakhulu; ilizwe leli saliphiwa ukuba libe yilifa lethu.’”
“Onipa ba, wo nua mmarimma, wɔn a wo ne wɔn yɛ mogya baako ne Israel efie nyinaa, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem kasa fa wɔn ho sɛ, ‘Saa nkurɔfoɔ a wɔkɔɔ nnommum no ne Awurade ntam ɛkwan ware, ɛno enti na wɔde wɔn asase yi ama yɛn sɛ yɛn agyapadeɛ.’”
16 “Ngakho-ke wothi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lanxa ngabasa khatshana phakathi kwezizwe njalo ngabahlakazela phakathi kwamazwe, ikanti okwesikhatshana ngibe yindlu engcwele kubo emazweni abaye kuwo.’
“Ɛno enti ka sɛ, ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛwom sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ akyirikyiri wɔ amanaman mu, hwetee wɔn guu nsase so deɛ, nanso berɛ tiawa bi mu no, meyɛɛ wɔn kronkronbea wɔ nsase a na wɔwɔ soɔ no so.’
17 Ngakho-ke wothi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizakubutha ezizweni ngikubuyise ngikususa emazweni owawuhlakazekele kuwo, njalo ngizakunika ilizwe lako-Israyeli futhi.’
“Enti ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mɛboaboa mo ano afiri amanaman no ne nsase a mehwetee mo guu soɔ no asane aba, na mede Israel asase bɛsane ama mo.’
18 Bazabuyela kulo basuse zonke izifanekiso zalo ezihlazisayo kanye lezithombe ezenyanyekayo.
“Wɔbɛsane aba so na wɔayiyi nsɛsodeɛ tantane ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no nyinaa.
19 Ngizabanika inhliziyo engehlukananga ngifake lomoya omutsha phakathi kwabo; ngizasusa kubo inhliziyo yabo yelitshe ngibaphe inhliziyo yenyama.
Mɛma wɔn akoma korɔ na mede honhom foforɔ ahyɛ wɔn mu; mɛyi wɔn akomaden no na mama wɔn akoma a ɛyɛ mmrɛ.
20 Lapho-ke bazalandela izimiso zami baqaphele ukugcina imithetho yami. Bazakuba ngabantu bami, lami ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo.
Afei wɔbɛdi mʼahyɛdeɛ so na wɔahwɛ akora me mmara yie. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mayɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.
21 Kodwa labo abanhliziyo zabo zinikelwe ezifanekisweni zabo ezihlazisayo lasezithombeni ezenyanyekayo, lokhu abakwenzileyo ngizakwehlisela phezu kwamakhanda abo, kutsho Thixo Wobukhosi.”
Nanso wɔn a wɔde wɔn akoma ama nsɛsodeɛ tantane ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no deɛ, mɛma deɛ wɔayɛ no abɔ wɔn tiri so, sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ.”
22 Lapho-ke amakherubhi, ayelamavili emaceleni, elula impiko zawo, njalo inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli yayingaphezu kwawo.
Afei, Kerubim no ne wɔn ntwahonan trɛtrɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu, na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam konkɔnn wɔn so.
23 Inkazimulo kaThixo yaya phezulu isuka phakathi kwedolobho yayakuma ngaphezu kwentaba ngasempumalanga kwedolobho.
Awurade animuonyam pagyaa ne ho firii kuropɔn no mu kɔgyinaa bepɔ a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no atifi.
24 UMoya wangiphakamisela phezulu wangisa kwabathunjiweyo eBhabhiloni ngombono owawulethwe nguMoya kaNkulunkulu. Emva kwalokho umbono engangiwubonile wasuka kimi,
Honhom no pagyaa me de me baa atukɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ Babilonia no nkyɛn wɔ anisoadehunu a Onyankopɔn Honhom maa me no mu. Afei anisoadeɛ a mehunuiɛ no firii me so kɔɔ soro.
25 ngasengitshela abathunjiweyo konke Thixo ayengitshengise khona.
Na mekaa biribiara a Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me no kyerɛɛ atukɔfoɔ no.
