1 UThixo wathi kimi, “Thatha isibhebhedu selitshe esikhulu ulobe kuso ngolimi olujwayelekileyo ukuthi: Maheri-Shalali-Hashi-Bhazi (okutsho ukuthi: abaphanga ukuhuquluza okuphangiweyo).
Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Tsɔ nuŋlɔkpe gã aɖe, eye nàŋlɔ ɖe edzi bena aboyonu, afɔnetsɔ, nuhaha, va kaba.
2 Ngizabiza u-Uriya umphristi loZakhariya indodana kaJebherekhiya njengabofakazi bami abathembekileyo.”
Mayɔ nunɔla Uria kple Zekaria, Yeberekia ƒe vi be woanye ɖasefo wɔnuteƒewo nam.”
3 Ngemva kwalokho ngaya kumphrofethikazi, wathatha isisu, wazala indodana. UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Mbize ngokuthi nguMaheri-Shalali-Hashi-Bhazi.
Ale mete ɖe nyɔnu nyagblɔɖila ŋu, eye wòfɔ fu hedzi ŋutsuvi. Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Mana ŋkɔe be Aboyonu, Afɔnetsɔ, Nuhaha, Va Kaba.
4 Kuzakuthi umfana engakakwazi ukuthi ‘Ubaba’ loba ‘Umama,’ inotho yaseDamaseko lempahla ethunjwe eSamariya kuzathathwa yinkosi yase-Asiriya.”
Hafi ɖevi la nate ŋu ayɔ ‘papa’ kple ‘dada’ la, Asiria fia aho aʋa ava dze Damasko kple Samaria dzi, eye wòalɔ woƒe kesinɔnuwo adzoe.”
5 UThixo wakhuluma kimi futhi wathi:
Yehowa gagblɔ nam be,
6 “Ngenxa yokuthi abantu laba sebewalile amanzi ageleza kuhle aseShilowa bethokozela uRezini lendodana kaRemaliya,
“Esi wònye be ame siawo gbe nu le Siloa tsi si tsana blewu la gbɔ, eye wokpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe Rezin kple Remalia ƒe vi ŋu la,
7 ngakho-ke iNkosi isiseduze ukubalethela izikhukhula zamanzi ezilamandla, eziyinkosi yase-Asiriya lobukhosi bayo bonke, zivela eYufrathe. Azachithekela ngaphandle kwayo yonke imigelo yawo, ageleze phezu kwamakhumbi ayo wonke,
eya ta Aƒetɔ la ana tɔsisi la ƒe tsi nyanyra sẽŋuwo ava kɔ ɖe wo dzi. Tɔɖɔɖɔ la anye Asiria fia le eƒe ŋɔdzi katã me. Tɔ la aɖɔ agbagba, eye wòage ɖe tɔʋuwo katã me;
8 afohlele koJuda, agcwale kulo, adlule phakathi kwalo efika entanyeni. Impiko zawo ezeluliweyo zizakwembesa ububanzi belizwe lakho, Awu, Emanuweli!”
asi ato Yuda, atsyɔ edzi agbagba, eye wòaɖɔ́ va se ɖe eƒe ve ke. Eƒe aʋala akeke atsyɔ miaƒe anyigba ƒe kekeme, O! Mawu li kpli mi!”
9 Hlabani umkhosi wempi lina zizwe, lichithwe! Lalelani lonke lina mazwe akude. Lungiselani impi, lichithwe! Lungiselani impi lichithwe!
Mi dukɔwo mido aʋaɣli, eye dzi naɖe le mia ƒo. Miƒu to anyi, mi ame siwo le didiƒenyigbawo dzi. Mibla akpa na aʋawɔwɔ, ke dzi neɖe le mia ƒo; mibla ali dzi, ke dzi neɖe le mia ƒo.
10 Lungisani icebo lenu, kodwa kalisoze liphumelele: bumbani isu lenu, kodwa kaliyikuma, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulathi.
Mide aɖaŋu na aʋawɔwɔ, gake woagblẽ miaƒe aɖaŋudede, miwɔ ɖoɖowo, gake womadze edzi o, elabena Mawu li kpli mi.
11 UThixo wakhuluma kimi isandla sakhe esilamandla siphezu kwami, engixwayisa ukuba ngingalandeli indlela yalababantu. Wathi:
Ale Yehowa ƒo nu kplim kple kakaɖedzi hede se nam be, magadze ame siawo yome o.
12 “Ungabokuthi kungamacebo amabi konke abantu laba abathi kungamacebo amabi; ungakwesabi abakwesabayo njalo ungakuqhuqhi.
Mègaxɔ nugbeɖoɖo si ame siawo le wɔwɔm la o, mègavɔ̃ nu siwo vɔ̃m wole la o, eye womegado ŋɔdzi na wò o.
13 UThixo uSomandla nguye okumele limazi engongcwele, nguye okumele limesabe, nguye okumele limqhuqhe.
Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la koe nye ame si miabu kɔkɔe. Eyae nye ame si ado ŋɔdzi na mi,
14 Uzakuba yisiphephelo; kodwa kuzo zombili izindlu zako-Israyeli uzakuba yilitshe elikhubekisa abantu ledwala elibenza bawe. Ebantwini baseJerusalema uzakuba yisifu lomjibila.
eye wòazu kɔkɔeƒe, gake anye agakpe kikli na Yuda kple Israel ƒe aƒe, esi woakli adze anyi. Gake anye xevimɔ kple adoboli na Yerusalemtɔwo.
15 Inengi labo lizakhubeka; bazakuwa bephuke, bazathiywa bathunjwe.”
Ame geɖewo aklii, adze anyi, eye woaŋe keŋkeŋ. Woatre mɔ alé wo.
16 Bopha ubufakazi besixwayiso, uqinise umthetho phakathi kwabafundi bakaNkulunkulu.
Bla ɖaseɖiɖi la, eye nàtre nye nufiafia nu le nye nusrɔ̃lawo dome.
17 Ngizamlindela uThixo, ofihlela indlu kaJakhobe ubuso bakhe. Ngizabeka ithemba lami kuye.
Makpɔ mɔ na Yehowa ame si le eƒe mo ɣlam ɖe Yakob ƒe aƒe la; maɖo dzi ɖe eŋu.
18 Mina ngilapha, kanye labantwana uThixo angiphe bona. Siyizibonakaliso lempawu ku-Israyeli ezivela kuThixo uSomandla, ohlala entabeni iZiyoni.
Kpɔ ɖa, nye kple vinye siwo Yehowa nam lae nye esi. Mienye dzesi kple kpɔɖeŋu le Israel tso Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ame si le Zion to la dzi la gbɔ.
19 Nxa abantu bekutshela ukuthi buza abalamadlozi labalemimoya yobuthakathi, labanyenyezayo bengunguza, kambe abantu akumelanga babuzisise uNkulunkulu wabo na? Kungani abaphilayo libabuzela kwabafayo na?
Ne amewo gblɔ na mi be, miyi miabia nu le ŋɔliyɔlawo kple afakalawo, ame siwo doa dalĩ kple ŋɔtimegbe gbɔ la, ɖe mele be amewo nabia nu woƒe Mawu boŋ oa? Ɖe woabia nu ame kukuwo na ame gbagbewoa?
20 Emthethweni lakubo ubufakazi! Nxa bengakhulumi ngokumayelana lelizwi leli, kabalakho ukukhanya kokusa.
Mitrɔ ɖe nye nufiafia kple ɖaseɖiɖiwo ŋu. Ne nu siwo wogblɔ mesɔ kple nye nyawo o la, ekema kekeli alo nyateƒe aɖeke mele wo tɔwo me o.
21 Bazazula lelizwe behlulukelwe, belambile. Lapho sebephalwe yindlala, bazathukuthela, bathuke inkosi yabo loNkulunkulu wabo bekhangele phezulu.
Woate wo ɖe anyi, eye dɔ awu wo. Woatsa tsaglãla le anyigba blibo la dzi, eye le dɔwuame ƒe sesẽ ta la woado dziku, aƒo fi ade woƒe fia kple woƒe Mawu.
22 Emva kwalokho bazakhangela emhlabeni babone usizi kuphela, lomnyama owesabekayo, njalo bazaphoselwa emnyameni opheleleyo.
Ekema woade wo to, ke nu si ko woakpɔe nye vevesese kple viviti kple blukɔ dziŋɔ, eye woatsɔ wo aƒu gbe ɖe viviti tsiɖitsiɖi me.
