< UHezekheli 4 >

1 “Khathesi-ke, ndodana yomuntu, thatha umcephe webumba uwubeke phambi kwakho, udwebe kuwo idolobho laseJerusalema.
“Na afei, onipa ba, fa ntayaa bi to wʼanim na kurukyerɛw Yerusalem kuropɔn mfoni wɔ so.
2 Dweba ukuvinjezelwa kwalo: Misa izindawo zokuvinjezelwa kwalo, yakha umthezuko ngaphezu kwalo, misa inkamba zokulihlasela uphinde ulihonqolozele ngezigodo zokubhidliza.
Afei tua nʼano: Di ntuano dwuma ahorow tia no, yɛ pie tia no, yɛ mpampim ne nsraban wɔ ho, na sisi mpuran twa ne ho dantaban.
3 Emva kwalokho thatha umganu wensimbi, uwubeke unjengomduli wensimbi phakathi kwakho lomuzi ube usuphendulela ubuso bakho kuwo. Wena ukhangele ngakuwo umuzi, umuzi ube ngovinjezelweyo, wena ube ngumvimbezeli. Lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso endlini ka-Israyeli.
Afei, fa dade kyɛmfɛre to ɔfasu wɔ wo ne kuropɔn no ntam na dan wʼani kyerɛ no. Wobetua kuropɔn no ano na wo na wubetua nʼano. Eyi bɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne ama Israelfi.
4 Emva kwalokho lala ngomhlubulo wenxele, ubeke isono sendlu ka-Israyeli phezu kwakho. Kumele uthwale isono sabo okwalezonsuku ulele ngomhlubulo wakho.
“Afei da wo benkum so na fa Israel bɔne to wo ho so. Wobɛsoa wɔn bɔne nna dodow a wode da wo fa so no.
5 Sengikumisele inani linye lezinsuku njengeminyaka yezono zabo. Ngakho izono zendlu ka-Israyeli uzazithwala okwensuku ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye.
Mede wɔn bɔne mfe no ayɛ nna dodow ama wo. Enti nnafua ahaasa ne aduɔkron na wode bɛsoa Israelfi bɔne.
6 Emva kokuba usuqede lokhu, lala phansi futhi, khathesi kube ngomhlubulo wakho wokunene, uthwale isono sendlu kaJuda. Ngikumisele insuku ezingamatshumi amane, usuku olulodwa lumele umnyaka munye ngamunye.
“Ɛno akyi no, da bio wɔ wo nifa so na soa Yudafo bɔne adaduanan a da koro biara bɛyɛ afe baako.
7 Phendulela ubuso bakho ekuvinjezelweni kweJerusalema kuthi izingalo zakho zingembeswanga uphrofithe kubi ngeJerusalema.
Dan wʼani kyerɛ Yerusalem ntuano no na fa nsa pan hyɛ nkɔm tia no.
8 Ngizakubopha ngentambo ukuze ungatshibiliki usuka kwelinye icele usiya kwelinye uze uqede insuku zokuvinjezelwa kwakho.
Mede ntampehama bɛkyekyere wo sɛnea worentumi nnan wo ho kosi sɛ nna a wɔde tua mo ano no bɛba nʼawie.
9 Thatha ingqoloyi lebhali, indumba lelentili, inyawuthi lophoko; ukubeke embizeni yokugcinela ukusebenzise ekwenzeni ukudla kwakho. Kumele ukudle phakathi kwensuku ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye ulele ngomhlubulo wakho.
“Fa atoko ne awi, asɛ ne asedua, kɔkɔte ne aburow; fa ne nyinaa gu adekora kuruwa mu na fa to brodo a wubedi. Eyi na wubedi wɔ nnafua ahaasa ne aduɔkron a woda wo fa so no.
10 Linganisa amashekeli angamatshumi amabili okudla ozakudla usuku ngalunye njalo ukudle ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo.
Kari aduan gram ahannu ne aduasa aduonu a wubedi no da koro biara wɔ bere ano, bere ano.
11 Njalo linganisa okukodwa kwesithupha kwehini lamanzi uwanathe ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo.
Afei susuw nsu sukuruwa baako na nom no bere ano bere ano.
12 Dlana ukudla njengalapho usidla ikhekhe lebhali, ukupheke abantu bekhangele, inkuni zakho kube ngamalongwe abantu.”
Di aduan no sɛnea anka wubedi atoko ɔfam; to ma nnipa nhu na fa onipa agyanan yɛ ogya.”
13 UThixo wathi, “Ngokunjalo abantu bako-Israyeli bazakudla ukudla okungcolileyo phakathi kwezizwe engizabaxotshela kuzo.”
Awurade kae se: “Saa ara na Israelfo bedi aduan a wɔagu ho fi wɔ amanaman a mɛpam wɔn akɔ so no.”
14 Lapho-ke mina ngathi, “Akunjalo, Thixo Wobukhosi. Angikaze ngizingcolise. Kusukela ebutsheni bami kuze kube khathesi angikaze ngidle loba yini etholakale ifile kumbe edlithizwe yizinyamazana. Akulanyama engcolileyo eseyake yangena emlonyeni wami.”
Na mekae se, “Ɛnte saa, Otumfo Awurade! Minguu me ho fi da. Efi me mmofraase besi saa bere yi, minnii aboa funu anaa nea nkekaboa bi akum no atetew ne mu da. Nam a ɛho agu fi nkaa mʼano da.”
15 Wasesithi, “Kulungile. Ngizakuvumela ukuba upheke isinkwa sakho ngamalongwe enkomo esikhundleni samalongwe abantu.”
Awurade kae se, “eye, mɛma wode nantwi agyanan asi onipa de anan mu, na woato wo brodo wɔ so.”
16 Waphinda wathi kimi, “Ndodana yomuntu, ngizavala ukungeniswa kokudla eJerusalema. Abantu bazakudla ukudla kokwabelwa benqineka, banathe lamanzi okwabelwa bengelathemba,
Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Onipa ba, metwa aduan a wɔde ba Yerusalem so. Nnipa no de ahoyeraw bedi aduan a wɔkyekyɛ mu na wɔde abasamtu anom nsu a wɔkyekyɛ,
17 ngoba ukudla lamanzi kuzakuba yingcosana. Bazakwethuka lapho bebonana, njalo bazacikizeka ngenxa yezono zabo.”
efisɛ aduan ne nsu ho bɛyɛ na. Wɔn ho bedwiriw wɔn sɛ wohu wɔn ho wɔn ho, na wɔn bɔne nti wɔbɛfonfɔn.”
