UHezekheli 36
1 “Ndodana yomuntu, phrofetha kuzo izintaba zako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Lina zintaba zako-Israyeli, zwanini ilizwi likaThixo.
“Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ Israel mmepɔw na ka se: ‘Israel mmepɔw, muntie Awurade asɛm.
2 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Isitha satsho ngani sathi, “Awu! Iziqongo zasendulo sezibe yilifa lethu.”’
Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛɛ na ɔtamfo no ka faa wo ho, “Aaa! Tete sorɔnsorɔmmea no abɛyɛ yɛn dea.”’
3 Ngakho-ke phrofetha uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngoba baliphanga njalo balixotsha bevela ezinhlangothini zonke laze laba yilifa lezinye izizwe lento yokunyeywa lokuchothozwa ngabantu,
Ɛno nti, hyɛ nkɔm na ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ wɔasɛe mo na wɔataataa mo wɔ afa nyinaa, na ɛno nti mobɛyɛɛ aman a aka no agyapade ne nnipa no ahohora nsɛnka ne atwetwesi,
4 ngakho-ke, lina zintaba zako-Israyeli, zwanini ilizwi likaThixo Wobukhosi: Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi kuzo izintaba lamaqaqa, ezindongeni lasezigodini, emanxiweni aphundlekileyo lasemadolobheni atshiyiweyo aphangwayo njalo ahlekwa ngezinye izizwe ezikuhanqileyo,
ɛno nti, Israel mmepɔw, muntie Otumfo Awurade asɛm: Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade ka kyerɛ mmepɔw ne nkoko, nsubon ne abon, nnwiriwii a ada mpan ne nea ayɛ amamfo, nkurow amamfo a wɔadwiriw agu na aman no nkae a atwa wɔn ho ahyia no di wɔn ho fɛw.
5 nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngokutshiseka kwami okukhulu sengikhulume ngimelana lezinye izizwe njalo lange-Edomi lonke, ngoba ngokuthaba langenzondo ezinhliziyweni zabo benza ilizwe lami elabo ukuze baphange amadlelo alo.’
Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mifi anem a emu yɛ den mu akasa atia amanaman a aka no ne Edom nyinaa, efisɛ wɔde fɛwdi ne adwemmɔne ayɛ me man wɔn agyapade, sɛnea wobetumi afom ne didibea.’
6 Ngakho phrofetha ngelizwe lako-Israyeli uthi kuzo izintaba lamaqaqa, indonga lezigodi: Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngikhuluma ngolaka lwami olulobukhwele ngoba lithwale isithuko sesizwe.
Ɛno nti, hyɛ nkɔm a ɛfa Israel asase ho, na ka kyerɛ mmepɔw ne nkoko, subon ne abon se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede ninkutwe mu anibere kasa, efisɛ amanaman no abu wo animtiaa.
7 Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngifunga izandla ziphakanyiselwe phezulu ukuthi izizwe ezilihanqileyo lazo zizathwala isithuko.
Enti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mema me nsa so ka ntam sɛ amanaman a atwa wo ho ahyia no nso, wobebu wɔn animtiaa.
8 Kodwa lina, lina zintaba zako-Israyeli, lizaveza ingatsha lezithelo zabantu bami u-Israyeli, ngoba sebezakuza ekhaya masinyane nje.
“‘Nanso mo, Israel mmepɔw, mubenya mman, asow aba ama me nkurɔfo Israelfo, efisɛ ɛrenkyɛ wɔbɛba fie.
9 Ngiyalinqinekela njalo ngizalikhangela ngomusa; lizalinywa lihlanyelwe,
Mo ho hia me na mehu mo mmɔbɔ; wobefuntum mo na wɔadua mo so aba,
10 njalo ngizakwandisa inani labantu phezu kwenu, lakuyo yonke indlu ka-Israyeli. Amadolobho kuzahlalwa kuwo futhi lamanxiwa avuselelwe.
na mɛma wo so nnipa adɔɔso, Israelfi nyinaa mpo, nnipa bɛtena wo nkurow no so bio, na wobesisi nnwiriwii no nso.
11 Ngizakwandisa inani labantu lelezinyamazana phezu kwenu: njalo kuzazalana kwande. Ngizahlalisa abantu phezu kwenu njengakudala njalo ngizalenza liphumelele kakhulu kulakudala. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.
Mɛma mmarima ne mmoa adɔɔso wɔ mo so na wɔbɛwowo na wɔadodɔ, mɛma nnipa atena wo mu te sɛ kan no na wɔbɛma woadi yiye asen kan no. Na afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
12 Ngizakwenza abantu, abantu bami bako-Israyeli bahambe phezu kwenu. Bazalenza libe ngababo, njalo lizakuba yilifa labo; kaliyikubemuka abantwana babo futhi.
Mɛma nkurɔfo, me nkurɔfo Israelfo, anantew wo so. Wɔbɛfa wo na wobɛyɛ wɔn agyapade na woremma wonni mmakɔm bio.
13 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngoba abantu bathi kini, ‘Lidla abantu lemuke isizwe senu abantwana baso,
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ nkurɔfo ka kyerɛ wo se, “Wukum nnipa we na woma wo man no hwere nʼadehye,”
14 ngakho-ke kaliyikudla abantu futhi loba lenze isizwe senu singabi labantwana, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
ɛno nti worenkum nnipa nwe bio na woremma wo man nhwere nʼadehye bio, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
15 Angiyikulenza lizwe izibhinqo zezizwe, njalo kalisayikuthwala izithuko zabantu loba ngenze ukuba isizwe senu siwe, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
Meremma wonte amanaman no fɛwdi bio, na worenhu nkurɔfo no animtiaabu bio, na wo man nso renhwe ase bio, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
16 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi njalo lisithi:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se,
17 “Ndodana yomuntu, abantu bako-Israyeli besahlala elizweni labo, balingcolisa ngendlela abaziphatha ngayo langezenzo zabo. Ukuziphatha kwabo kwakufana lokungcola kowesifazane kwanyanga zonke emehlweni ami.
“Onipa ba, bere a Israelfo te wɔn ankasa asase so no, wɔde wɔn abrabɔ ne wɔn nneyɛe guu asase no ho fi. Na wɔn abrabɔ te sɛ ɔbea ɔsram-sram afide wɔ mʼani so.
18 Ngakho ngehlisela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo ngoba babechithe igazi elizweni njalo ngoba babelingcolisile ngezithombe zabo.
Enti mihwiee mʼabufuwhyew guu wɔn so, efisɛ wɔahwie mogya agu asase no so na wɔde wɔn abosom agu hɔ fi.
19 Ngabachithela phakathi kwezizwe, njalo bahlakazekela emazweni; ngabahlulela ngokufanele ukuziphatha kwabo kanye lezenzo zabo.
Mebɔɔ wɔn ahwete wɔ amanaman mu, na wɔhwete faa amanaman mu; migyinaa wɔn abrabɔ ne wɔn nneyɛe so buu wɔn atɛn.
20 Loba ngaphi abaya khona phakathi kwezizwe balingcolisa ibizo lami elingcwele, ngoba kwathiwa ngabo, ‘Laba ngabantu bakaThixo, kodwa basuswa elizweni.’
Na baabiara a wɔkɔɔ wɔ amanaman mu no, woguu me din kronkron ho fi, efisɛ wɔka faa wɔn ho se, ‘Eyinom yɛ Awurade nkurɔfo, nanso na ɛsɛ sɛ wofi nʼasase so.’
21 Nganqinekela ibizo lami elingcwele, elangcoliswa yindlu ka-Israyeli phakathi kwezizwe abaya kuzo.
Me din kronkron ho hia me, nea Israelfi guu ho fi wɔ amanaman a wɔkɔɔ so mu no.
22 Ngakho tshono endlini ka-Israyeli uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Akusingenxa yakho, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, ukuthi ngizakwenza izinto lezi, kodwa ngenxa yebizo lami elingcwele, osulingcolisile phakathi kwezizwe lapho oye khona.
“Ɛno nti, ka kyerɛ Israelfi se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Israelfi, ɛnyɛ mo nti na merebɛyɛ saa nneɛma yi, na mmom me din kronkron no nti, nea muguu ho fi wɔ amanaman a mokɔɔ so mu no.
23 Ngizabonakalisa ubungcwele bebizo elikhulu, eselingcolisiwe phakathi kwezizwe, ibizo osulingcolisile phakathi kwazo. Lapho-ke izizwe zizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi, lapho sengizibonakalisa ngingcwele ngawe phambi kwamehlo azo.
Mɛda me din kɛseyɛ no kronkronyɛ a moagu ho fi wɔ amanaman mu no adi, din a moagu ho fi wɔ wɔn mu no. Sɛ mefa wo so da me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni ma wohu a, afei amanaman no behu sɛ mene Awurade no, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
24 Ngoba ngizakususa ezizweni; ngizakuqoqa emazweni wonke ngikubuyisele elizweni lakho.
“‘Na meyi mo afi amanaman no mu, mɛboaboa mo ano afi nsase no nyinaa so de mo asan aba mo ankasa asase so.
25 Ngizakuchela ngamanzi ahlanzekileyo, uzahlambuluka; ngizakuhlambulula kukho konke ukungcola kwakho kanye lakuzo zonke izithombe zakho.
Mede nsu kurunnyenn bɛpete mo so na mo ho atew: Mɛtew mo ho afi nkekae ne mo ahoni nyinaa ho.
26 Ngizakunika inhliziyo entsha ngifake lomoya omutsha phakathi kwakho; ngizasusa kuwe inhliziyo yakho yelitshe ngikunike inhliziyo yenyama.
Mɛma mo koma foforo na mede honhom foforo ahyɛ mo mu. Meyi koma a ɛte sɛ ɔbo no afi mo mu na mama mo koma foforo a ɛyɛ ɔhonam.
27 Njalo ngizafaka uMoya wami phakathi kwakho ngikwenze ulandele izimiso zami njalo unanzelele ukugcina imithetho yami.
Na mede me Honhom bɛhyɛ mo mu na mama moadi mʼahyɛde so na moahwɛ adi me mmara so.
28 Lizahlala elizweni engalinika okhokho benu; lizakuba ngabantu bami, mina ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wenu.
Mobɛtena asase a mede maa mo agyanom no so. Mobɛyɛ me nkurɔfo na mayɛ mo Nyankopɔn.
29 Ngizalikhulula kukho konke ukungcola kwenu. Ngizabiza amabele ngiwenze abe manengi njalo angiyikuletha indlala kini.
Mɛprapra mo ho fi nyinaa. Mɛma aduan aba ama abu so na meremma ɔkɔm mma mo so.
30 Ngizakwandisa izithelo zezihlahla kanye lamabele emasimini, ukuze lingabi lehlazo futhi phakathi kwezizwe ngenxa yendlala.
Mɛma nnua so aba ayɛ bebree na mfuw nso abɔ nnɔbae sɛnea ɔkɔm nti mo anim rengu ase bio wɔ amanaman no mu.
31 Lapho-ke lizakhumbula izindlela zenu ezimbi kanye lezono zenu ezingalunganga, njalo lizazizonda lina ngokwenu ngenxa yezono kanye lezenzo zenu ezenyanyekayo.
Afei mobɛkae mo akwammɔne ne mo amumɔyɛ, na mo bɔne ne akyiwade nti, mo ho bɛyɛ mo nwini.
32 Ngifuna ukuba likwazi ukuthi lokhu angikwenzeli lina, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi. Yangeka ube lenhloni ngenxa yokuziphatha kwakho, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli!
Mepɛ sɛ muhu sɛ ɛnyɛ mo nti na mereyɛ eyi, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni. Momfɛre na momma mo ani nwu wɔ mo abrabɔ ho Israelfi!
33 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngosuku engizakuhlambulula ngalo ezonweni zakho zonke, ngizahlalisa abantu emadolobheni akho, njalo lamanxiwa azavuselelwa.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Da a mɛtew mo ho afi mo bɔne ho no, mɛma nnipa atena mo nkurow so bio na wobesisi nnwiriwii no bio.
34 Ilizwe eliphundlekileyo lizalinywa kulokuthi lihlale liphundlekile emehlweni abo bonke abadabula phakathi kwalo.
Asase a ada mpan no, wobedua so nneɛma na ɛrenna hɔ kwa sɛnea na ɛte wɔ wɔn a na wotwa mu fa hɔ no ani so no.
35 Bazakuthi, “Ilizwe leli elaselenziwe laba lugwadule selibe njengesivande se-Edeni; amadolobho ayesengamanxiwa, ephundlekile njalo echithekile, khathesi asevikelwe ngezinqaba njalo sekuhlala abantu kuwo.”
Wɔbɛka se, “Saa asase a ada mpan yi ayɛ sɛ Eden turo, nkuropɔn a na adan nnwiriwii, ayɛ amamfo na asɛe yi, wɔabɔ ho ban na nnipa abɛtenatena mu.”
36 Lapho-ke izizwe ezilihanqileyo eziseleyo zizakwazi ukuthi mina Thixo sengikwakhe kutsha okwakudiliziwe njalo sengikuhlanyele kutsha okwakuphundlekile. Mina Thixo sengikhulumile njalo ngizakwenza lokhu.’
Afei aman a aka a atwa mo ho ahyia no behu sɛ me Awurade makyekyere nea na asɛe na madua wɔ nea na ada mpan so, me Awurade na maka na mɛyɛ.’
37 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizasivuma njalo isicelo sendlu ka-Israyeli ngibenzele lokhu: Ngizakwenza abantu bakibo babebanengi njengezimvu,
“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Metie Israelfi abisade na mayɛ eyi ama wɔn; Mɛma wɔn nkurɔfo adɔɔso sɛ nguan,
38 babebanengi njengemihlambi yemihlatshelo eJerusalema ngesikhathi semikhosi yalo emisiweyo. Ngokunjalo amadolobho achithekayo azagcwala ngamaxuku abantu. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.”
wɔbɛdɔɔso sɛ nguankuw a wɔde wɔn kɔ Yerusalem sɛ afɔrebɔde wɔ nʼafahyɛnna. Saa ara na nnipa dodow bɛhyɛ nkuropɔn a adwiriw no so ma. Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
