UMikha 2
1 Maye kulabo abaceba ububi, kulabo abaceba ukwenza okubi emibhedeni yabo! Ekudabukeni kokusa bayakwenza ngoba kusemandleni abo ukukwenza.
Nnome nka wɔn a wɔfa amumɔyɛ ho adwene, wɔn a wɔbɔ pɔw bɔne wɔ wɔn mpa so! Wɔsɔre anɔpa kodi dwuma no, efisɛ wɔwɔ tumi sɛ wɔyɛ.
2 Bahawukela amasimu bawathumbe, kanye lezindlu, bazithathe. Badlelezela umuntu ngomuzi wakhe, lomuntu wakibo ngelifa lakhe.
Wɔn ani bere mfuw, na wogye. Na afi nso wɔfa. Wɔde nyansakorɔn gye nkurɔfo afi, na wɔn agyapade nso wogye.
3 Ngakho uThixo uthi: “Ngiceba ukwenza umonakalo kulababantu, elingeke liziphephise kuwo. Kalisayikuhamba ngokuziqhenya, ngoba kuzakuba yisikhathi sencithakalo.
Enti, sɛnea Awurade se ni, “Meredwene amanehunu a etia saa nkurɔfo yi ho na worentumi nyi wo ho mfi mu. Worentumi nnantew ahantan so bio, efisɛ ɛbɛyɛ bere bɔne.
4 Ngalolosuku abantu bazalihleka; bazaliklolodela ngale ingoma yokulila bathi: ‘Thina sichithwe okupheleleyo; ilifa labantu bami labiwe. Uyangithathela! Amasimu ethu uwanika abathengisi.’”
Saa da no, nnipa bɛserew mo. Wɔde saa awerɛhow dwom yi bedi mo ho fɛw se: ‘wɔasɛe yɛn koraa; wɔakyekyɛ me nkurɔfo ahode mu. Ogye fi me nsam! Na ɔde yɛn mfuw ma akɔnkɔnsafo.’”
5 Ngakho-ke kawuzukuba laye ebandleni likaThixo ozalabela ilizwe ngenkatho.
Enti morennya obi wɔ Awurade asafo mu a ɔde ntontobɔ bɛkyɛ asase no.
6 Abaphrofethi babo bathi, “Lingaphrofethi. Lingaphrofethi ngalezizinto; ihlazo kaliyikusehlela.”
“Monnhyɛ nkɔm,” saa na wɔn nkɔmhyɛfo no ka. “Monnhyɛ saa nneɛma yi ho nkɔm; animguase rento yɛn.”
7 Wena ndlu kaJakhobe, kufanele yini ukuba kuthiwe, “UMoya kaThixo uzondile na? Uyazenza izinto ezinje na?” “Amazwi ami kawenzi okulungileyo kuye ozindlela zakhe ziqondile na?
Mo Yakobfi, so wɔnka se, “Awurade Honhom nni boasetɔ ana? Ɔyɛ nneɛma a ɛte sɛɛ ana? “Ne nsɛm nyɛ nea nʼakwan teɛ no yiye ana?
8 Okwamanje abantu bami sebehlamuke njengesitha. Lihlubula ingubo eligugu kulabo abedlulayo linganakile, njengabantu abavela empini.
Akyiri no me nkurɔfo asɔre te sɛ ɔtamfo. Moworɔw ntade pa fi wɔn a wɔretwa mu a ɛmfa mo ho, ma wɔyɛ te sɛ asraafo a wofi akono.
9 Abesifazane babantu bami liyabaxotsha emizini yabo emihle. Lisusa isibusiso sami kokuphela ebantwaneni babo.
Mopam mmea a wɔwɔ me nkurɔfo mu fi wɔn afi afɛɛfɛ mu. Mugye me nhyira fi wɔn mma nsam afebɔɔ.
10 Sukani lihambe! Ngoba le akusindawo yenu yokuphumula, ngoba ingcolile, ichithekile, okungeke kulungiswe.
Sɔre, fi ha kɔ! Ha nyɛ faako a wɔhome, efisɛ ho agu fi, Wɔasɛe no, na ɛrenyɛ yiye bio.
11 Nxa umqambi wamanga lomkhohlisi efika athi, ‘Ngizaliphrofethela iwayini elinengi lotshwala,’ uyabe engumphrofethi walababantu nje kuphela!”
Sɛ ɔtorofo ne ɔdaadaafo ba bɛka se, ‘Mɛhyɛ nkɔm ama moanya nsa bebree a’ ɔbɛyɛ odiyifo a saa nkurɔfo yi pɛ.”
12 “Impela ngizalibutha lonke, wena Jakhobe; impela ngizabaqoqela ndawonye abako-Israyeli abasalayo. Ngizabaqoqela ndawonye njengezimvu esibayeni, njengomhlambi wezimvu emadlelweni awo; indawo ibe lokuphithizela kwabantu.
“Mɛboaboa mo nyinaa ano Yakob; nokware mɛka Israel nkae no nyinaa abɔ mu. Mɛka wɔn abɔ mu te sɛ nguan a wogu nguannan mu, te sɛ nguankuw a wɔwɔ adidibea; nnipa bɛhyɛ beae hɔ manyamanya.
13 Lowo ozavula indlela uzahamba phambi kwabo; bazafohla isango baphume. Inkosi yabo izadlulela phambi kwabo, uThixo abe phambi kwabo.”
Nea obue ɔkwan no bedi wɔn anim; wobebu apon no na wɔafi akɔ. Wɔn Hene no bɛsen adi wɔn anim, Awurade bɛyɛ wɔn ti.”
