Amahubo 78
1 Ihubo ka-Asafu Zwanini imfundiso yami, bantu bami; lilalele amazwi omlomo wami.
Asaf dwom. Me nkurɔfo, muntie me nkyerɛkyerɛ; monyɛ aso mma mʼanom nsɛm.
2 Ngizavula umlomo wami ngemifanekiso, ngizakutsho izinto ezifihlekileyo, izinto zekadeni,
Mɛkasa wɔ abebu mu, mɛka ahintasɛm, teteete nneɛma no,
3 esakuzwayo lesikwaziyo esakutshelwa ngokhokho bethu.
nneɛma a yɛate na yɛahu; nneɛma a yɛn agyanom aka ho asɛm akyerɛ yɛn.
4 Kasizukuzifihlela abantwana babo; sizasitshela isizukulwane esizayo ngemisebenzi emangalisayo kaThixo, amandla akhe, lemimangaliso aseyenzile.
Yɛremfa nkame wɔn mma; yɛbɛka akyerɛ nkyirimma Awurade nneyɛe a ɛfata nkamfo no, ne tumi ne anwonwade a wayɛ no.
5 Wamisela uJakhobe imithetho wabeka umlayo ko-Israyeli, walaya okhokho bethu ukuthi bawufundise abantwababo,
Ɔyɛɛ ahyɛde maa Yakob na ɔyɛɛ mmara wɔ Israel, nea ɔhyɛɛ yɛn nenanom sɛ wɔnkyerɛ wɔn mma,
6 ukuze aziwe yisizukulwane esilandelayo, kanye labantwana abazazalwa, kuthi labo batshele abantwababo.
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a nkyirimma besua, mpo mmofra a wonnya nwoo wɔn, na wɔn nso akyerɛkyerɛ wɔn mma.
7 Yikho-ke bazabeka ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu njalo abasoze bakhohlwa izenzo zakhe kodwa bagcine imilayo yakhe.
Afei wɔde wɔn ho bɛto Onyankopɔn so, na wɔn werɛ remfi ne nneyɛe, na wobedi nʼahyɛde so.
8 Kabayikuba njengabokhokho babo ababeyisizukulwana esilobuqholo lesihlamukayo, onhliziyo zabo zazingazinikelanga kuNkulunkulu omoya yabo yayingathembekanga kuye.
Wɔrenyɛ sɛ wɔn nenanom, a na wɔyɛ asoɔdenfo ne atuatewfo, wɔn a wonni Onyankopɔn nokware wɔ wɔn koma mu na woyɛ honhom mu atorofo ma no no.
9 Amadoda ako-Efrayimi, loba ayehlomile ngemitshoko, afulathela mhla welanga lempi;
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ na Efraim mmarima kurakura agyan, nanso ɔko da no woguanee;
10 kabasigcinanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bala ukuphila ngomthetho wakhe.
Wɔanni Onyankopɔn apam no so, wɔampɛ sɛ wodi ne mmara no so.
11 Bakhohlwa lokho ayekwenzile, izimanga ayebatshengise zona.
Wɔn werɛ fii nea wayɛ, anwonwade a wayɛ akyerɛ wɔn no.
12 Wenza imimangaliso oyise bekhangele elizweni laseGibhithe, esigodini saseZowani.
Ɔyɛɛ anwonwade wɔ wɔn nenanom anim, wɔ Soan mantam a ɛwɔ Misraim asase so.
13 Walwahlukanisa ulwandle wabahola bachapha; wenza amanzi ema aqina saka njengomduli.
Ɔkyɛɛ po mu na ɔde wɔn faa mu. Ɔmaa nsu no gyinaa sɛ afasu.
14 Wabahola ngeyezi emini njalo ngokukhanya komlilo ubusuku bonke.
Ɔde omununkum dii wɔn anim awia na ɔde ogyatɛn dii wɔn anim anadwo nyinaa.
15 Wawaqhekeza amadwala enkangala wabapha amanzi amanengi njengolwandle;
Ɔpaee ɔbotan mu wɔ sare so, na ɔmaa wɔn nsu a ɛdɔɔso sɛ po;
16 wantshazisa impophoma emadwaleni amawa wenza amanzi ageleza njengemifula.
Ɔmaa asuti fii abotan mu na ɔmaa nsu sen sɛ nsubɔnten.
17 Kodwa baqhubeka besona phambi kwakhe, bamhlamukela enkangala yena oPhezukonke.
Nanso wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne tiaa no, wɔsɔre tiaa Ɔsorosoroni no wɔ sare no so.
18 Bamlinga uNkulunkulu ngabomo ngokucela ukudla ababekutshisekela.
Wɔhyɛɛ da kaa aduan a wɔpɛ, de sɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛe.
19 Bamchothoza uNkulunkulu besithi, “Kambe uNkulunkulu angendlala itafula lokudlela enkangala na?
Wɔkasa tiaa Onyankopɔn se, “Onyankopɔn betumi ato pon wɔ sare so ana?
20 Wathi lapho etshaya idwala, amanzi antshantshaza, kwageleza amanzi amanengi. Kodwa angasipha njalo lokudla na? Angabalethela inyama abantu bakhe na?”
Ɔde ade bɔɔ ɔbotan mu no, nsu tue fii mu, na nsuwa sen buu so. Na obetumi ama yɛn aduan nso? Obetumi ama ne nkurɔfo nam ana?”
21 UThixo wathi ebezwa wathukuthela kakhulu; umlilo wakhe wavuthela kuJakhobe, ulaka lwakhe lwaqina ku-Israyeli,
Bere a Awurade tee nea wɔreka no, ne bo fuw yiye; ne gya beguu Yakob so, na nʼabufuwhyew sɔre tiaa Israel,
22 ngoba kabamkholwanga uNkulunkulu njalo kabawathembanga amandla okuhlenga kwakhe.
efisɛ na wonni Onyankopɔn mu gyidi anaasɛ ne nkwagye mu ahotoso.
23 Loba kunjalo walaya umkhathi ngaphezulu wavula iminyango yamazulu;
Nanso ɔkasa kyerɛɛ ɔsoro wɔ ɔhyɛ so; na obuee ɔsorosoro apon.
24 wanisa imana ukuthi badle abantu, wabapha amabele asezulwini.
Ɔtɔɔ mana guu fam maa nnipa no sɛ wunni, ɔmaa wɔn ɔsoro aduan.
25 Abantu badla isinkwa sezingilosi; wabathumela konke ukudla ababengakudla.
Nnipa dii abɔfo aduan; ɔmaa wɔn aduan a wobetumi adi nyinaa.
26 Wawukhulula umoya wempumalanga uvela emazulwini, wawukhulula umoya weningizimu ngamandla akhe.
Ogyaa apuei mframa fi ɔsoro, na ofi ne tumi mu bɔɔ atɔe mframa.
27 Wanisela inyama kubo njengothuli, izinyoni eziphaphayo zaba njengetshebetshebe ogwini lolwandle.
Ɔtɔɔ nam sɛ mfutuma guu wɔn so, nnomaa a wotu bebree sɛ mpoano nwea.
28 Wazenza zehlela phakathi kwezihonqo zabo, indawana yonke emathenteni abo.
Ɔma wɔbaa fam kɔɔ wɔn atenae, ne wɔn ntamadan ho nyinaa.
29 Bazitika baze bakhangela, ngoba wayebaphe ababekade bekukhalela.
Wodidi maa aduan no boroo wɔn so efisɛ ɔmaa wɔn nea wɔhwehwɛ.
30 Kodwa bengakakutshiyi lokho kudla ababekukhalela belokhu besakunambitha emilonyeni yabo,
Nanso ansa na wobefi aduan a wɔhwehwɛ no ho, bere a ɛhyehyɛ wɔn anom mpo no,
31 ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwavutha kubo; wabulala zona iziqwabalanda zabo, wawahemula amajaha ako-Israyeli.
Onyankopɔn abufuw sɔree wɔn so; okum ahoɔdenfo a wɔwɔ wɔn mu twitwaa Israel mmerante gui.
32 Phezu kwakho konke lokhu baqhubeka besona; phezu kwezimanga zakhe, kabazange bakholwe.
Eyinom nyinaa akyi, wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne; nʼanwonwade akyi no, wɔannye anni.
33 Ngakho wenza insuku zabo zaphelela ezeni njalo leminyaka yabo yagcwala ukwesaba.
Enti otwaa wɔn nna so te sɛ ahuru yɛɛ wɔn mfe awiei huhuuhu.
34 Kwakusithi uNkulunkulu angababulala, bamdinge; baphendukele kuye njalo ngokutshiseka.
Bere biara a Onyankopɔn bekum wɔn no, wɔhwehwɛ no na wɔpere wɔn ho san ba ne nkyɛn.
35 Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayelidwala labo, ukuthi uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke wayenguMhlengi wabo.
Wɔkaee sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ wɔn botan, sɛ Ɔsorosoro Nyankopɔn no yɛ wɔn Gyefo.
36 Kodwa-ke kwakuyikumyenga ngemilomo yabo, beqamba amanga kuye ngendimi zabo;
Nanso wɔde wɔn ano bɛdaadaa no, na wɔde wɔn tɛkrɛma atwa atoro akyerɛ no;
37 inhliziyo zabo zazingabambelelanga kuye, babengathembekanga esivumelwaneni sakhe.
wɔn koma nni no nokware, na wonni nʼapam no so.
38 Kodwa wayelesihawu; wazithethelela izono zabo kaze ababhubhisa. Isikhathi ngesikhathi waluthoba ulaka lwakhe akaze akuqubula konke ukuthukuthela kwakhe.
Nanso na ɔyɛ ahummɔbɔ; ɔde wɔn amumɔyɛ kyɛɛ wɔn a wansɛe wɔn. Mpɛn pii, ɔtwentwɛn nʼabufuw so na wanhwie nʼabufuwhyew nyinaa.
39 Wakhumbula ukuthi babeyinyama nje intshongolo eyedlulayo nje ingabe isabuya.
Ɔkaee sɛ wɔyɛ ɔhonam ara kwa, mframa bi a ɛbɔ twa mu na ɛnsan nʼakyi.
40 Kodwa ukuthi bamhlamukela kanengi njani enkangala, bamdabukisa egwaduleni!
Mpɛn ahe na wɔansɔre antia no wɔ sare no so hɔ, na mpɛn ahe na wɔamma ne werɛ anhow wɔ asase wosee no so!
41 Baphindaphinda ukulinga uNkulunkulu; bamthukuthelisa oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛɛ bere biara; na woyii Israel Ɔkronkronni no abufuw.
42 Kabawakhumbulanga amandla akhe usuku abakhulula ngalo kumncindezeli,
Wɔn werɛ fii ne tumi no, da a ogyee wɔn fii wɔn nhyɛsofo nsam no,
43 usuku lapho aveza khona izibonakaliso zakhe ezimangalisayo eGibhithe, izimanga zakhe esigodini saseZowani.
da a ɔyɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne nwonwaso wɔ Misraim no ne nʼanwonwade wɔ Soan mantam mu no.
44 Waguqula imifula yabo yaba ligazi; behluleka ukunatha ezifuleni zabo.
Ɔmaa wɔn nsubɔnten dan mogya; wɔantumi annom wɔn nsuten mu nsu.
45 Wathumela imihlambi yezibawu zabantinya, lamaxoxo ababhuqayo.
Ɔmaa nwansenadɔm baa wɔn so bɛhaw wɔn na mpɔtorɔ nso bɛsɛee wɔn asase.
46 Amabele abo wawathela izintethe, izithelo zabo isikhongwane.
Ɔmaa tɛwtɛw bedii wɔn mfuw so aduan na ɔde wɔn nnɔbae nso maa mmoadabi.
47 Wathintitha amavini abo ngesiqhotho lemikhiwa yabo yesikhamore wayitshazisa ngongqwaqwane.
Ɔde mparuwbo sɛee wɔn bobe na ɔde sukyerɛmma sɛee wɔn ankye nnua.
48 Inkomo zabo wazithela ngesiqhotho, izifuyo zabo zadliwa yizikhatha zombane.
Ɔde sukyerɛmma kum wɔn anantwi ɔde anyinam kum wɔn nyɛmmoa.
49 Wabathululela ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo, intukuthelo yakhe, ukucunuka lenzondo ixuku lezingilosi ezibhubhisayo.
Ohwiee nʼabufuwhyew guu wɔn so, abufuw, anibere ne ɔtan; abɔfo asɛefo kuw no.
50 Wayilungisa indlela yolaka lwakhe; kabaphephisanga ekufeni kodwa wabanikela emikhuhlaneni.
Ɔbɔɔ kwan maa nʼabufuw; na wamfa wɔn nkwa ankyɛ wɔn, mmom, ɔde wɔn maa ɔyaredɔm.
51 Wawabulala wonke amazibulo aseGibhithe, izithelo zabo zokuqala zokuba ngamadoda emathenteni kaHamu.
Okunkum Misraimfo mmakan nyinaa, Ham ntamadan mu nnipa mu abakan.
52 Kodwa wabakhupha abantu bakhe njengomhlambi wezimvu; wabahola njengezimvu bedabula inkangala.
Nanso oyii ne nkurɔfo fii mu sɛ nguankuw; odii wɔn anim sɛ nguan wɔ sare no so.
53 Wabakhokhela ngonanzelelo, ngakho babengesabi; kodwa ulwandle lwazigubuzela izitha zabo.
Odii wɔn anim dwoodwoo, enti wɔansuro; nanso wɔn atamfo de, po asorɔkye bu faa wɔn so.
54 Kanjalo wabaletha emngceleni welizwe lakhe elingcwele, elizweni lamaqaqa ayelithethe ngesandla sakhe sokunene.
Sɛɛ na ɔyɛ de wɔn baa nʼasase kronkron no ahye so, bepɔw asase a ɔde ne nsa nifa gyee no.
55 Wazixotsha izizwe phambi kwabo wabahlukanisela ilizwe lazo laba yilifa; wahlalisa izizwana zako-Israyeli emizini yazo.
Ɔpam amanaman a wɔwɔ wɔn anim no na ɔkyekyɛɛ wɔn nsase no mu maa wɔn sɛ wɔn agyapade; ɔbɔɔ Israel mmusuakuw no atenase wɔ wɔn afi mu.
56 Kodwa bamlinga uNkulunkulu, bamhlamukela oPhezukonke; kabayigcinanga imilayo yakhe.
Nanso wɔsɔɔ Onyankopɔn hwɛe, na wɔsɔre tiaa Ɔsorosoroni no; na wɔanni ne mmara so.
57 Njengabokhokho babo babengathembekanga bengakholwa, ungeke wathemba njengedandili elenziwe kubi.
Wɔyɛɛ sɛ wɔn agyanom, wɔanni nokware na wɔannya gyidi, ahotoso nni wɔn mu na wɔte sɛ agyan a asɛe.
58 Bamvusa ulaka ngezindawo zabo eziphezulu; baqubula ubukhwele bakhe ngezithombe zabo.
Wɔde wɔn sorɔnsorɔmmea hyɛɛ no abufuw na wɔn ahoni maa ne ninkutwe mu yɛɛ den.
59 Wathi uNkulunkulu ngokukuzwa lokho, wathukuthela kakhulu; wamlahla qobo lokumlahla u-Israyeli.
Onyankopɔn tee wɔn nka no, ne bo fuwii; na ɔpoo Israel korakora.
60 Walidela ithabanikeli lakhe eShilo, ithente ayelakhile phakathi kwabantu.
Ogyaw nʼatenae a ɛwɔ Silo no, ntamadan a wasi wɔ nnipa mu no.
61 Umphongolo wakhe wamandla wawusa ekuthunjweni, inkazimulo yakhe ezandleni zesitha.
Ɔde Apam Adaka a ɛyɛ ne tumi no kɔɔ nnommum mu, nʼanuonyam kɔɔ atamfo nsam.
62 Abantu bakhe wabanikela ukudliwa yinkemba; wayethukuthele kakhulu ngelifa lakhe.
Ɔde ne nkurɔfo maa afoa; ne bo fuw nʼagyapade yiye.
63 Umlilo waziqeda izinsizwa zabo, izintombi zabo zaswela izingoma zomtshado;
Ogya hyew wɔn mmerante kum wɔn, na wɔn mmabaa annya ayeforohyia dwom anto;
64 abaphristi babo babulawa ngenkemba, abafelokazi babo behluleka ukulila.
Wɔn asɔfo wuwuu afoa ano, na wɔn akunafo antumi ansu.
65 INkosi yasivuka njengokade esebuthongweni, njengomuntu ephaphama ekudakweni yiwayini.
Afei Awurade sɔree sɛnea ofi nna mu no, sɛnea ɔbarima a wabow nsa nyan fi nnahɔɔ mu no.
66 Wazitshaya zahlehla izitha zakhe; waziyangisa okungapheliyo.
Ɔbobɔɔ nʼatamfo ma woguan kɔɔ wɔn akyi; ɔhyɛɛ wɔn aniwu afebɔɔ.
67 Khonapho-ke wawakhalala amathente kaJosefa, akaze asikhetha isizwana sika-Efrayimi;
Afei ɔpoo Yosef ntamadan no, na wamfa Efraim abusuakuw no nso;
68 kodwa wakhetha isizwana sikaJuda, iNtaba iZiyoni ayeyithanda.
Na mmom, ɔfaa Yuda abusuakuw no, Bepɔw Sion a ɔdɔ no no.
69 Wakha indlu yakhe engcwele njengeziqongo, njengomhlaba awumisela ingunaphakade.
Osii ne kronkronbea te sɛ sorɔnsorɔmmea, te sɛ asase a etim hɔ daa.
70 Wakhetha uDavida inceku yakhe wamthatha ezilugwini zezimvu;
Oyii ne somfo Dawid, ɔfrɛɛ no fii nguannan mu;
71 wamsusa ekweluseni izimvu wamletha ukuba ngumelusi wabantu bakhe uJakhobe, baka-Israyeli ilifa lakhe.
fii nguan akyi na ɔde no bae se ɔmmɛyɛ oguanhwɛfo mma ne nkurɔfo Yakob, mma Israel a wɔyɛ nʼagyapade.
72 Njalo uDavida wabelusa ngobuqotho benhliziyo; wabakhokhela ngesandla sobungcitshi.
Na Dawid de koma pa hwɛɛ wɔn so na ɔde ne nimdeɛ dii wɔn anim.
