< UHezekheli 24 >
1 Ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye, ngenyanga yetshumi, ngosuku lwetshumi, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Afe a ɛto so akron no sram a ɛto so du no nnafua du so no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
2 “Ndodana yomuntu, bhala usuku lolu, usuku lolu lona ngokwalo, ngoba iNkosi yaseBhabhiloni isivimbezele iJerusalema ngalo kanye lolusuku.
“Onipa ba, kyerɛw saa da yi, saa da yi ara, efisɛ Babiloniahene atua Yerusalem nnɛ da yi ara.
3 Tshela indlu le ehlamukayo umfanekiso uthi kubo: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Beka imbiza yokupheka eziko; ibeke phezu kwamaseko uthele amanzi phakathi kwayo.
Ka kyerɛ saa atuatewfo yi, ka no wɔ mmebu mu kyerɛ wɔn se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Fa ɔsɛn no si gya so; fa si so na hwie nsu gu mu.
4 Faka phakathi kwayo amaqatha enyama, wonke amaqatha amahle, umlenze lesiphanga. Igcwalise ngamathambo amahle;
Fa namkum no gu mu, namkum a ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ no nyinaa, anan ne abasa. Fa nnompe a ɛte apɔw hyɛ no ma;
5 thatha okukhethiweyo emhlambini. Basela kakhulu ngenkuni usenzela amathambo; ixhwathise upheke amathambo phakathi kwayo.
fa nguankuw no mu nea odi mu. Fa nnyentia hyehyɛ ase ma nnompe no; ma enhuru na noa nnompe a ɛwɔ mu no.
6 Ngoba nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Maye kulo idolobho lokuchithwa kwegazi, kuyo imbiza esithombile, ukuthomba kwayo okungayikuphela! Thulula imbiza ukhuphe amaqhatha ngalinye ngalinye kungekho inkatho.
“‘Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Mogyahwiegu kuropɔn no nnue, nnome nka ɔsɛn a agye nkannare mprempren, na nea ɛwɔ mu aka mu no! Yiyi namkum no mmaako mmaako fi mu a wompaw mu koraa.
7 Ngakho igazi elachithwa lidolobho leli liphakathi kwalo: lalithululela edwaleni elize; kalilithululelanga phansi lapho umhlabathi owawungaligqibela khona.
“‘Mogya a ohwie guu no wɔ ne mfimfini: ohwie guu ɔbotan wosee so; wanhwie angu fam, baabi a mfutuma bɛkata so.
8 Ukuze ngivuse intukuthelo njalo ngiphindisele, ngabeka igazi lelo phezu kwedwala elize, ukuze lingagqitshelwa.
Sɛ ɛbɛhwanyan abufuwhyew ama aweretɔ nti mede ne mogya guu ɔbotan wosee so sɛnea ɛso renkata.
9 Ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Maye kulo idolobho lokuchithwa kwegazi! Lami futhi, ngizakwenza ibonda lenkuni eliphakemeyo.
“‘Enti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Mogyahwiegu kuropɔn no nnue! Me nso mɛhyehyɛ nnyansin no ama akɔ sorosoro.
10 Ngakho faka inkuni uphembe umlilo. Ipheke kuhle inyama, uhlanganisa leziyoliso; uyekele amathambo atshe.
Enti hyehyɛ nnyansin no na sɔ gya no. Noa nam no yiye, fa ahuamhuanne fra mu; na ma nnompe no nhyew.
11 Emva kwalokho beka imbiza engelalutho phezu kwamalahle ize itshise lethusi layo livuthe ukuze ukungcola kwayo kutshe kuphele lokuthomba kwayo kutshe kuphele.
Afei fa ɔsɛnhunu no si nnyansramma no so kosi sɛ ɛbɛdɔ na ayɛ kɔɔ sɛnea mu fi no bɛnan na nea ɛwɔ mu no bɛhyew asɛe.
12 Isiphuthise imizamo yonke; uqweqwe lokuthomba kwayo kalususwanga, loba langomlilo.
Wama ɔbrɛ no nyinaa ayɛ kwa; mu fi dodow no ankɔ, ogya mpo antumi anyi.
13 Khathesi ukungcola kwakho yisigwebo. Ngoba ngizamile ukukuhlambulula kodwa ubungeke uhlanjululwe ekungcoleni kwakho, kawuyikuhlambuluka futhi ukukuthukuthelela kwami kuze kudede.
“‘Fi a ɛwɔ wo mu no ne aniwu nneyɛe. Mebɔɔ mmɔden sɛ mɛhohoro wo ho, nanso woamma ho kwan, wo ho remfi bio kosi sɛ mʼabufuwhyew a etia wo no ano bedwo.
14 Mina Thixo sengikhulumile. Isikhathi sokuba ngenze sesifikile. Kangiyikuzithiba; kangiyikuba lesihawu, kumbe ngiyekethise. Uzakwahlulelwa mayelana lokuziphatha kwakho kanye lezenzo zakho, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
“‘Me Awurade na maka. Bere aso sɛ meyɛ biribi. Merentwentwɛn so; merennya ahummɔbɔ, na merengugow me ho. Wobegyina wo suban ne wo nneyɛe so abu wo atɛn, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
15 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
16 “Ndodana yomuntu, sekuseduze ukuthi ngokugalela okukodwa nje ngisuse kuwe intokozo yamehlo akho. Kodwa ungalili kumbe ukhale loba wehlise inyembezi.
“Onipa ba, merebɛbɔ wo baako na mafa ade a wʼani gye ho yiye. Nanso ntwa adwo, nni awerɛhow na ntew nusu.
17 Bubula uthule; ungalileli abafileyo. Bophela iqhiye yakho lamanyathela akho ezinyaweni zakho; ungambozi ingxenye yaphansi yobuso bakho loba udle ukudla komkhuba wabalilayo.”
Si apini komm; nni owufo ho awerɛhow. Ma wʼabotiri mmɔ wo na hyɛ wo mpaboa; nkata wʼano na nni amanne aduan a wɔn a wodi awerɛhow no di.”
18 Ngakho ngakhuluma labantu ekuseni, umkami wafa kusihlwa. Ekuseni kwakusisa ngenza njengokulaywa kwami.
Enti mekasa kyerɛɛ nnipa no anɔpa na nʼanwummere na me yere wui. Ade kyee no, meyɛɛ sɛnea wɔahyɛ me no.
19 Abantu basebengibuza besithi, “Kawuyikusitshela na ukuthi izinto lezi zilani lathi?”
Afei nnipa no bisaa me se, “Worenkyerɛ yɛn sɛnea nneyɛe yi si fa yɛn ho ana?”
20 Ngakho mina ngathi kubo, “Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Enti meka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
21 Tshono endlini ka-Israyeli uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Sekuseduze ukuthi ngingcolise indlu yami engcwele, inqaba eliziqhenya ngayo, intokozo yamehlo enu, into eliyithanda kakhulu. Amadodana lamadodakazi eliwatshiyileyo azabulawa ngenkemba.
Ka kyerɛ Israelfi se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Merebegu me kronkronbea ho fi; mo bammɔ dennen a mode hoahoa mo ho, nea mo ani gye ho, ade a mo koma da so. Mmabarima ne mmabea a mugyaw wɔn akyi no bɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano.
22 Njalo lizakwenza njengoba ngenzile. Kaliyikumboza ingxenye yaphansi yobuso benu loba lidle ukudla komkhuba wabalilayo.
Na mobɛyɛ sɛnea mayɛ yi, morenkata mo ano na morenni amanne aduan a wɔn a wodi awerɛhow di.
23 Lizafaka amaqhiye enu emakhanda enu lamanyathela enu ezinyaweni zenu. Kaliyikulila kumbe likhale kodwa lizacikizeka ngenxa yezono zenu njalo libubule phakathi kwenu.
Mobɛkɔ so abɔ mo abotiri ahyɛ mo mpaboa. Morenni awerɛhow na morensu, mmom mo so bɛtew esiane mo bɔne nti, na mubesisi apini wɔ mo mu.
24 UHezekhiyeli uzakuba yisibonakaliso kini; lizakwenza njengoba enzile. Nxa lokhu kusenzakala, lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo Wobukhosi.’
Hesekiel bɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnnede ama mo, mobɛyɛ sɛnea wayɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Na eyi si a na mubehu sɛ mene Otumfo Awurade no.’
25 Njalo wena, ndodana yomuntu, ngosuku engizasusa ngalo inqaba yabo, intokozo yabo lodumo, injabulo yamehlo abo, isifiso senhliziyo yabo, kanye lamadodana lamadodakazi abo futhi,
“Na wo, onipa ba, da a mɛfa wɔn aban dennen, wɔn ahosɛpɛw ne anuonyam, ade a wɔn ani gye ho, wɔn koma so ade, ne wɔn mmabarima ne wɔn mmabea nso no,
26 ngalolosuku isiphepheli yiso esizalandisa izindaba.
saa da no okyinkyinfo bi na ɔbɛba abɛka nea asi akyerɛ wo.
27 Ngalesosikhathi umlomo wakho uzavuleka; uzakhuluma laye njalo kawuyikuthula futhi. Ngakho uzakuba yisibonakaliso kubo, njalo bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.”
Saa bere no, wʼano bebue, wo ne no bɛkasa na worenyɛ komm bio. Wobɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnnede ama wɔn, na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
