U-Isaya 5
1 Ngizahlabelela lowo engimthandayo ingoma ngesivini sakhe: Othandwa yimi wayelesivini eqaqeni oluvundileyo.
Mɛto dwom ama me dɔfo ɛdwom a ɛfa ne bobe turo ho: Na me dɔfo wɔ bobe turo bi wɔ asasebereɛ bi a ɛda bepɔ ani.
2 Wasigebha, wasusa amatshe kuso, wahlanyela kuso amavini amahle. Wakha umphotshongo ophakemeyo phakathi kwaso njalo wagebha lesikhamelo sewayini kuso. Walindela izithelo ezinhle, kodwa amavini athela ezimbi kuphela.
Ɔfuntum asase no yiyii mu aboɔ, na ɔduaa bobe a ɛyɛ papa wɔ so. Ɔsii ɔwɛn aban wɔ mfimfini na ɔtuu nsakyimena nso. Afei, ɔhwɛɛ anim sɛ ɔbɛtwa bobe aba pa, nanso ɛsoo aba bɔne.
3 “Manje-ke lina abahlala eJerusalema lani madoda akoJuda, yahlulelani phakathi kwami lesivini sami.
“Afei, mo a motete Yerusalem ne Yuda mmarima, mommu me ne me bobe turo ntam atɛn.
4 Kuyini okudlula lapho okwakumele kwenziwe esivinini sami engingakwenzanga kuso na? Lapho ngangilindele izithelo ezinhle kungani sona sathela ezimbi kuphela na?
Ɛdeɛn bio na anka ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ ma me bobe turo boro deɛ mayɛ yi so? Ɛberɛ a merehwɛ anim sɛ menya bobe a ɛyɛ no adɛn enti na ɛsoo aba bɔne?
5 Khathesi-ke sengizalitshela engizakwenza esivinini sami: Ngizasusa uthango lwaso; sizadilizwa. Ngizabhidliza umduli waso, sizagxotshwa ngezinyawo.
Afei, mɛka deɛ merebɛyɛ me bobefuo no akyerɛ wo: Mɛyi ɛho ban no afiri hɔ, na wɔbɛsɛe no; mɛbubu ɛho fasuo, na wɔbɛtiatia so.
6 Ngizasenza sibe liganga kungabikho ukuthenwa kumbe ukuhlakulwa; inkotha lameva kuzakhula kuso. Ngizalaya amayezi anganisi zulu kuso.”
Mɛma ayɛ asase a ɛda mpan a worenyiyi mu na wɔnyɛ so adwuma, ɔhwerɛm ne nkasɛɛ bɛnyini wɔ so. Mɛhyɛ omununkum na wantɔ nsuo angu so.”
7 Isivini sikaThixo uSomandla yindlu ka-Israyeli; abantu bakoJuda bayinsimu eligugu kuye. Wayelindele okufaneleyo, kodwa wabona ukuchitheka kwegazi; endaweni yokulunga, wezwa ukukhala kosizi.
Asafo Awurade bobe turo no yɛ Israel fie, na Yuda mmarima yɛ turo a nʼani gye ho. Ɔpɛɛ atɛn tenenee nanso ɔhunuu mogyahwiegu; ɔpɛɛ tenenee nanso ɔtee mmɔborɔ su.
8 Maye kini elengeza izindlu ngezindlu lihlanganise insimu ensimini kuze kusweleke indawo eseleyo, njalo lihlala lodwa elizweni.
Nnome nka mo a mode efie ka efie ho na mogyegye mfuo bobɔ soɔ kɔsi sɛ asase no bɛsa na ɛka mo nko ara wɔ asase no so.
9 UThixo uSomandla usetshilo ngisizwa wathi: “Ngeqiniso izindlu ezinengi zizakuba ngamanxiwa; ezinkulu ezinhle zisale zingaselamuntu ohlala kuzo.
Asafo Awurade apae mu aka ama mate: “Nokorɛm afie akɛseɛ no bɛda mpan, na mmorɔsan fɛfɛ no, obiara rentena mu.
10 Izindima ezilitshumi zesivini zizathela ifatshi elilodwa lewayini, ihomeri lenhlanyelo lithele ihefa lamabele.”
Bobefuo kɛseɛ pa ara no nsã kakra bi na ɛbɛfiri mu. Aba lita aduonu baako a wɔdua no wɔbɛnya so lita aduonu mmienu pɛ.”
11 Maye kulabo abavuka ngovivi ekuseni begijimela ukunatha utshwala; abaqhubekayo kuze kube phakathi kobusuku baze badakwe butshwala.
Wɔnnue, wɔn a wɔsɔre anɔpahema kɔhwehwɛ wɔn nsã akyiri kwan, wɔn a wɔsiri pɛ kɔsi sɛ nsã bɛbo wɔn.
12 Balamachacho lemihubhe emadilini abo, amagedla, imihlanga, lewayini, kodwa kabazinaki izenzo zikaThixo, akukho nhlonipho yomsebenzi wezandla zakhe.
Wɔbɔ sankuten ne bɛnta wɔ wɔn apontoɔ ase, akasaeɛ, ne atɛntɛbɛn ne nsã, nanso wɔtwiri deɛ Awurade ayɛ, na wɔmmu ne nsa ano adwuma.
13 Ngakho-ke abantu bami bazakuya ekuthunjweni ngenxa yokungazwisisi; izikhulu zabo zizabulawa yindlala lenengi labo lizakoma ngomhawu wamanzi.
Ɛno enti, me nkurɔfoɔ bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnni nteaseɛ; ɛkɔm bɛkum wɔn mu atitire na osukɔm bɛtware wɔn mu bebree.
14 Ngakho indawo yabafileyo izakwelula imihlathi yayo, ikhamise umlomo wayo okungelamkhawulo; izikhulu zabo lenengi labo bawele phakathi labo bonke abaxokozelayo labazithokozisayo. (Sheol h7585)
Enti, damena akɔnnɔ yɛ kɛseɛ na ɔbue nʼanom bayaa; na emu na atitire ne ɛdɔm no bɛkɔ wɔne wɔn a wɔsa na wɔgye wɔn ani. (Sheol h7585)
15 Abantu bazakwehliselwa phansi, abantu bazathobekiswa, amehlo abaziphakamisayo athotshiswe.
Enti, wɔbɛbrɛ onipa ase na wama adasamma aboto. Wɔbɛbrɛ ɔhantanni ase,
16 Kodwa uThixo uSomandla uzaphakanyiswa ngokwahlulela kwakhe okuhle; ubungcwele bukaNkulunkulu buzabonakala ngokulunga kwakhe.
nanso Asafo Awurade atɛntenenee bɛpagya no, na Kronkron Onyankopɔn de ne tenenee bɛda ne ho adi sɛ Ɔkronkronni.
17 Lapho-ke izimvu zizakudla angathi kusemadlelweni azo, amazinyane adle emanxiweni ezinothi.
Afei nnwan bɛkɔ adidi te sɛ deɛ wɔwɔ wɔn adidibea; nnwammaa bɛdidi wɔ asikafoɔ amanfo so.
18 Maye kulabo abahudula isono ngentambo zenkohliso lobubi kungathi kungamagoda enqola,
Monnue, mo a mode nnaadaa nhoma twetwe bɔne, na mode nteaseɛnam ntampehoma twetwe amumuyɛ.
19 kulabo abathi, “UNkulunkulu kaphangise, kaphangisise umsebenzi wakhe ukuze siwubone. Kalisondele icebo loNgcwele ka-Israyeli kalize ukuze silazi.”
Monnue, mo a moka sɛ, “Onyankopɔn nyɛ ntɛm, ɔnyɛ nʼadwuma ntɛm sɛdeɛ yɛbɛhunu. Ma ɛmmɛn, Israel Ɔkronkronni no nhyehyɛeɛ no mmra, sɛdeɛ yɛbɛhunu.”
20 Maye kulabo abathi okubi kuhle bathi okuhle kubi, ababeka umnyama esikhundleni sokukhanya; ukukhanya esikhundleni somnyama; ababeka okubabayo esikhundleni sokumnandi, okumnandi esikhundleni sokubabayo.
Monnue, mo a mofrɛ bɔne sɛ papa na papa nso sɛ bɔne, mo a mode esum si hann anan mu na hann si esum anan mu, mo a mofrɛ nwononwono sɛ dɛɛdɛ ne dɛɛdɛ sɛ nwononwono.
21 Maye kulabo abahlakaniphileyo emehlweni abo njalo besile ekuboneni kwabo.
Monnue, mo a mobu mo ho anyansafoɔ, mo ankasa ani so ne anitefoɔ mo ankasa ani so.
22 Maye kulabo abangamaqhawe ekunatheni iwayini njalo bezintshantshu ekuhlanganiseni okunathwayo,
Monnue mo a wɔfrɛ mo akatakyie wɔ nsanom mu ne ahoɔdenfoɔ wɔ nsã afrafra mu.
23 abakhulula abalamacala ngenxa yokufunjathiswa. Kodwa banqabele abamsulwa imfanelo yabo.
Mo a mogye adanmudeɛ, na mo gyae deɛ ɔdi fɔ na mo bu deɛ ɔdi bem no fɔ.
24 Ngakho-ke, njengalokhu umlilo utshisa inhlanga, utshani obomileyo buphelela phakathi kwamalangabi, ngokunjalo impande zabo zizabola. Lamaluba abo aphephuke njengothuli; ngoba bawalile umthetho kaThixo uSomandla balidelela ilizwi loNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Enti, sɛdeɛ egyadɛreɛ hye wira dwaneeɛ na ɛserɛ a awo yera wɔ ogyaframa mu no, saa ara na mo nhini bɛporɔ, na mo nhwiren nso atu akɔ sɛ mfuturo; ɛfiri sɛ moapo Asafo Awurade mmara na moatwiri Israel Kronkronni no asɛm.
25 Ngakho ulaka lukaThixo luzavutha ebantwini bakhe; isandla sakhe siphakeme njalo uyabatshaya. Izintaba ziyanyikinyeka, izidumbu zabafileyo zinjengezibi ezindleleni. Ikanti kukho konke lokhu ulaka lwakhe kaluphelanga, isandla sakhe silokhu siphakanyisiwe.
Enti Awurade abufuo aba ne nkurɔfoɔ so, wapagya ne nsa na ɔde rebɔ wɔn ahwe fam. Mmepɔ no woso, na afunu ayɛ sɛ mmɔntene so wira. Nanso yei nyinaa akyi, ne bo nnwoeɛ, na ne nsa da so wɔ soro.
26 Uphakamisela izizwe ezikude uphawu, ubatshayela ikhwelo abasemaphethelweni omhlaba. Nampa besiza ngokuphangisa langejubane!
Ɔpagya frankaa ma akyirikyiri aman, ɔhyɛne abɛn de frɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ asase ano. Wɔn na wɔreba no, ɔherɛ so ne ntɛm so!
27 Kakho omunye wabo odinwayo loba okhubekayo, kakho owozelayo kumbe olalayo, akukho bhanti elixegiswayo ekhalweni, akukho ntambo yenyathelo equmekileyo.
Wɔn mu biara mmrɛ na ɔnsunti, obiara ntɔ nko na ɔnna; abɔsoɔ biara mu rengo wɔ asene mu na mpaboa ahoma biara nso rente.
28 Imitshoko yabo ibukhali, wonke amadandili abo agotshisiwe; amasondo amabhiza abo afana lelitshe elilukhuni, amavili ezinqola zabo zokulwa anjengesivunguzane.
Wɔn agyan ano yɛ nnam, na wɔn tadua nyinaa ayɛ krado; wɔn apɔnkɔ ntɔte te sɛ twerɛboɔ, wɔn nteaseɛnam ntwahonan te sɛ twahoframa.
29 Ukubhonga kwabo kufana lokwesilwane, babhonga njengezilwane ezikhulayo, bayabhavuma lapho bebamba inyamazana edliwayo, babaleke layo kungekho ongabemuka.
Wɔn mmobɔmu te sɛ gyata deɛ, na wɔbobɔm sɛ gyata mma; wɔpɔso kyere wɔn hanam na wɔde no kɔ a ɔgyefoɔ biara nni hɔ.
30 Ngalolosuku bazabhavumela phezu kwayo njengokubhavuma kolwandle. Njalo nxa umuntu ekhangela ilizwe, uzabona umnyama losizi; lelanga lizakwenziwa libe mnyama ngamayezi.
Ɛda no wɔbɛbobɔ mu agu ne so sɛdeɛ ɛpo woro soɔ. Na sɛ obi hwɛ asase no a, ɔbɛhunu esum kabisii ne ahohiahia; omununkum bɛma hann aduru sum.
