< UJeremiya 10 >

1 Zwana okutshiwo nguThixo kuwe, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli.
Montie deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛ mo, Ao Israel fiefoɔ.
2 UThixo uthi: “Lingazifundi izindlela zezizwe kumbe ukwethuswa yizibonakaliso zasemkhathini, lanxa nje izizwe zisethuswa yizo.
Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Monnsua amanaman no akwan na momma ewiem nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ mmɔ mo hu. Ɛwom sɛ yeinom bɔ amanaman no hu
3 Ngoba imikhuba yabantu iyize, bagamula isihlahla ehlathini, ingcwethi isibaze ngetshizela yayo.
nanso nkurɔfoɔ no amanneɛ nka hwee; wɔtwa dua firi kwaeɛm, na odwumfoɔ de ne fitiiɛ asene.
4 Bayasicecisa ngesiliva langegolide, basibethele ngesando langezipikili ukuze singanyikinyeki.
Wɔde dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ hyehyɛ no; wɔde nnadewa ne asaeɛ bobɔ si hɔ sɛdeɛ ɛrenhwe fam.
5 Njengezinto zokwethusa endimeni yamajodo, izithombe zabo azikhulumi, kumele zithwalwe ngoba azingeke zihambe. Lingazesabi, azingeke zenze okubi, lokuhle azingeke zikwenze.”
Ɛte sɛ kaakaammotobi a ɛsi ɛferɛ mfikyifuo mu, wɔn ahoni no ntumi nkasa; ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsoa wɔn ɛfiri sɛ wɔntumi nnante. Monnsuro wɔn; wɔrentumi nha mo na wɔrentumi nyɛ adepa biara nso.”
6 Kakho ofana lawe, wena Thixo, wena umkhulu, lebizo lakho lilamandla amakhulu.
Obiara nte sɛ wo, Ao Awurade; woyɛ kɛseɛ na wo din wɔ tumi.
7 Ngubani ongeke akwesabe, wena Nkosi yezizwe? Lokhu kukufanele. Phakathi kwabantu bonke abahlakaniphileyo bezizwe lakuyo yonke imibuso yabo, kakho onjengawe.
Hwan na ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔdi wo ni, Ao, amansanhene? Yei na ɛfata woɔ. Amanaman no so anyansafoɔ nyinaa mu ne wɔn ahennie nyinaa mu, obiara ne wo nsɛ.
8 Bonke kabalangqondo njalo bayizithutha, bafundiswa yizithombe zezigodo eziyize.
Wɔn nyinaa yɛ adwenemherɛfoɔ ne nkwaseafoɔ; dua ahoni a ɛho nni mfasoɔ na ɛma wɔn nkyerɛkyerɛ.
9 Isiliva esikhandiweyo siyalethwa sivela eThashishi legolide livela e-Ufazi. Okwenziwe yingcwethi lomkhandi wegolide kugqokiswa okuluhlaza lokuyibubende, njalo konke kwenziwe zingcitshi.
Wɔde dwetɛ a wɔaboro firi Tarsis ba ne sikakɔkɔɔ nso firi Ufas ba. Ɛyɛ deɛ odwumfoɔ ne sikadwumfoɔ ayɛ a wɔde ntoma bibire ne beredum afira no. Ne nyinaa yɛ adwumfoɔ anyansafoɔ nsa ano adwuma.
10 Kodwa uThixo unguNkulunkulu oqotho, unguNkulunkulu ophilayo, iNkosi yanininini. Lapho ethukuthele, umhlaba uyagedezela, izizwe azingeke zimelane lolaka lwakhe.
Nanso, Awurade ne nokorɛ Onyankopɔn no; ɔno ne Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ, daapem Ɔhene no. Sɛ ne bo fu a, asase woso; na amanaman no ntumi nnyina nʼabufuhyeɛ ano.
11 “Batshele lokhu uthi, onkulunkulu laba, abangawenzanga amazulu lomhlaba, bazabhubha emhlabeni langaphansi kwamazulu.”
“Ka yei kyerɛ wɔn: ‘Saa anyame a ɛnyɛ wɔn na wɔyɛɛ ɔsoro ne asase no bɛyera afiri asase so ne ɔsorosoro ase.’”
12 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wenza umhlaba ngamandla akhe, wamisa umhlaba ngokuhlakanipha kwakhe, njalo wendlala lamazulu ngokuqedisisa kwakhe.
Nanso, Onyankopɔn de ne tumi bɔɔ asase; ɔtoo ewiase fapem wɔ ne nyansa mu na ɔde ne nhunumu trɛɛ ɔsorosoro mu.
13 Lapho evungama, amanzi asemazulwini ayahlokoma, wenza amayezi aphakame evela emikhawulweni yomhlaba. Uthumela umbane ulezulu njalo akhuphe umoya eziphaleni zakhe.
Sɛ ɔdwidwa aprannaa a, ɔsorosoro nsuo bobom; ɔma omununkum ma ne ho so firi nsase ano. Ɔde ayerɛmo ka osutɔ ho ba na ɔgyaa mframa mu firi nʼakoradan mu.
14 Abantu bonke kabalangqondo njalo kabalalwazi, wonke umkhandi wegolide uyangiswa yizithombe zakhe. Izithombe zakhe azenzayo ziyinkohliso, kazilamphefumulo phakathi kwazo.
Onipa biara nnim nyansa, na ɔnni nimdeɛ; sikadwumfoɔ biara anim gu ase, ɛsiane nʼahoni enti. Ne nsɛsodeɛ yɛ atorɔ; wɔnni ahomeɛ biara wɔ wɔn mu.
15 Ziyize, izinto zenhlekisa nje, lapho ukwahlulelwa kwazo sekufikile, zizabhubha.
Wɔn ho nni mfasoɔ, na wɔyɛ aseredeɛ nneɛma. Sɛ wɔn atemmuo duru so a, wɔbɛyera.
16 Lowo oyiNgxenye kaJakhobe kafani lalaba, ngoba unguMenzi wezinto zonke, kubalwa lo-Israyeli, isizwe selifa lakhe, ibizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
Deɛ ɔyɛ Yakob Kyɛfa no nte sɛ yeinom, ɛfiri sɛ ɔno ne adeɛ nyinaa Yɛfoɔ, a Israel, abusua a ɛyɛ nʼagyapadeɛ nso ka ho, Asafo Awurade ne ne din.
17 Qoqani impahla yenu ukuba lisuke elizweni, lina elihlezi livinjezelwe.
Mommoaboa mo ahodeɛ ano mfiri asase no so, mo a motete nkuro a wɔatua mu.
18 Ngoba uThixo uthi, “Ngalesisikhathi ngizabaphosela phandle labo abahlala kulelilizwe, ngizabehlisela usizi ukuze bathunjwe.”
Na yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Saa ɛberɛ yi mɛto wɔn a wɔtete asase yi so atwene; mede amanehunu bɛba wɔn so sɛdeɛ wɔbɛfa wɔn nnommum.”
19 Maye mina ngenxa yokulimala kwami! Inxeba lami kalelapheki! Ikanti ngazitshela ngathi, “Lo ngumkhuhlane wami, njalo kumele ngiwubekezelele.”
Me pira yi enti mennue; mʼapirakuro yɛ koankorɔ! Nanso mehyɛɛ me ho den sɛ, “Yei ne me yadeɛ, na ɛsɛ sɛ memia mʼani.”
20 Ithente lami lidiliziwe, izintambo zalo zonke ziqumekile. Amadodana ami asukile kimi njalo kawasekho, kakho oseleyo ukuba angimisele ithente lami, loba ongangilungisela amakhetheni ami.
Wɔasɛe me ntomadan; wɔatwitwa ne nhoma nyinaa mu. Wɔafa me mma nyinaa kɔ a merenhunu wɔn bio; anka obiara a ɔbɛsi me ntomadan anaa ɔbɛsiesie me suhyɛ.
21 Abelusi kabalangqondo njalo kabambuzi uThixo, ngakho kabaphumeleli, njalo lemihlambi yabo yonke ihlakazekile.
Nnwanhwɛfoɔ no yɛ adwenemherɛfoɔ. Wɔmmisa Awurade akyiri ɛkwan; ɛno enti ɛnsi wɔn yie na wɔn nnwankuo no abɔ ahwete.
22 Lalelani! Umbiko uyeza, ukuxokozela okukhulu okuvela elizweni lenyakatho! Kuzakwenza amadolobho akoJuda achitheke, abe yizikhundla zamakhanka.
Montie! Amaneɛ no reba, basabasayɛ kɛseɛ a ɛfiri atifi fam asase bi so! Ɛbɛma Yuda nkuro ada mpan, na ayɛ sakraman atuo.
23 Ngiyazi, Oh Thixo, ukuthi ukuphila komuntu akusikho kwakhe, umuntu akusikho kwakhe ukuthi aqondise izinyathelo zakhe.
Ao Awurade, menim sɛ, onipa nkwa nyɛ ne dea; na ɛnyɛ onipa na ɔkyerɛkyerɛ nʼanammɔntuo.
24 Ngiqondise Thixo, kodwa kube ngokulunga, kungabi ngolaka lwakho, hlezi ungenze ngibe yize.
Tene me so, Awurade, wɔ tenenee mu, mfiri wʼabofuo mu ntwe mʼaso anyɛ saa a, mɛwu.
25 Yehlisela ulaka lwakho phezu kwezizwe ezingakwamukeliyo, phezu kwabantu abangakhuleki ebizweni lakho. Ngoba bamdlile uJakhobe, bamdlile waphela bachitha lelizwe lakhe.
Hwie wʼabufuhyeɛ no gu amanaman a wɔnnye wo ntom no so, nnipa a wɔmmɔ wo din no so. Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔasɛe Yakob wɔasɛe no koraa na wɔasɛe nʼasase a wɔwoo no too so.
