UZekhariya 12
1 Isiphrofethi: ilizwi likaThixo mayelana lo-Israyeli. UThixo owachayayo amazulu, obeka isisekelo somhlaba, njalo owenza umphefumulo womuntu phakathi kwakhe, uthi:
Nkɔmhyɛ: Yei ne Awurade asɛm a ɛfa Israel ho. Awurade a ɔtrɛ ɔsoro mu, deɛ ɔto asase fapem, deɛ ɔyɛ honhom a ɔte onipa mu asɛm nie:
2 “Ngizakwenza iJerusalema ibe njengenkezo ezadakisa bonke abantu abakhelene layo. UJuda uzavinjezelwa laye njengeJerusalema.
“Merebɛyɛ Yerusalem kuruwa a ɛbɛma aman a atwa ne ho ahyia no atɔ ntintan. Wɔbɛto ahyɛ Yuda ne Yerusalem so.
3 Ngalelolanga, lapho izizwe zonke zomhlaba sezihlangene ukulwa laye, ngizakwenza iJerusalema ibe lidwala elingagudlukiyo elezizwe zonke. Bonke abazama ukulitshedisa bazazilimaza.
Saa ɛda no a ewiase aman nyinaa aboa wɔn ho ano retia no no, mɛma Yerusalem ayɛ ɔbotantim ama aman no nyinaa. Wɔn a wɔbɛpɛ sɛ wopire no no nyinaa bɛpirapira wɔn ho.
4 Ngalelolanga ngizakwenza wonke amabhiza ethuke labagadi bawo bahlanye,” kutsho uThixo. “Indlu kaJuda ngizahlala ngiyiqaphele, kodwa ngizaphumputhekisa wonke amabhiza ezizwe.
Saa ɛda no, mɛma ɔpɔnkɔ biara abɔ huboa, na mɛma ne sotefoɔ nso abɔ dam,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie. “Mɛbue mʼani ahwɛ Yuda fie, na mɛfirafira aman ahodoɔ no apɔnkɔ ani.
5 Lapho abakhokheli bakoJuda bazakuthi ezinhliziyweni zabo, ‘Abantu baseJerusalema baqinile, ngoba uThixo uSomandla unguNkulunkulu wabo.’
Na Yuda ntuanofoɔ bɛka wɔ wɔn akoma mu sɛ, ‘Yerusalemfoɔ yɛ ahoɔdenfoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ Asafo Awurade yɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.’
6 Ngalelolanga ngizakwenza abakhokheli bakoJuda babe njengebhodo phezu kwezikhuni, njengobhaqa oluvuthayo phakathi kwezithungo. Bazathungela ngapha langapha kutshe bonke abantu abakhelene labo, kodwa iJerusalema izasala imi injalo endaweni yayo.
“Saa ɛda no, mɛyɛ Yuda ntuanofoɔ sɛ ogya ayowaa a ɛhyɛ nnyina mu, te sɛ ogyatɛn a ɛrederɛ wɔ wira a wɔaboa ano mu. Wɔbɛhye nnipa a wɔatwa wɔn ho ahyia nyinaa wɔ benkum ne nifa, nanso hwee renka Yerusalem wɔ baabi a ɔwɔ hɔ.
7 UThixo uzasindisa imizi yakoJuda kuqala ukuze udumo lwendlu kaDavida lolwezakhamizi zaseJerusalema lungabi lukhulu kulolukaJuda.
“Awurade bɛbɔ Yuda atenaeɛ ho ban kane, sɛdeɛ Dawid fie ne wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem animuonyam renkyɛne Yudafoɔ animuonyam.
8 Ngalelolanga uThixo uzabavikela labo abahlala eJerusalema, kuze kuthi lobuthakathaka kakhulu phakathi kwabo uzakuba njengoDavida, lendlu kaDavida izakuba njengoNkulunkulu, njengeNgilosi kaThixo ihamba phambi kwabo.
Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛbɔ wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem ho ban, deɛ ɔyɛ mmerɛ koraa wɔ wɔn mu no bɛyɛ sɛ Dawid. Na Dawid asefoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn, te sɛ Awurade Bɔfoɔ a ɔdi wɔn anim.
9 Ngalelolanga ngizaphuma ngiyebhubhisa zonke izizwe ezihlasela iJerusalema.”
Saa ɛda no, mɛhyɛ aseɛ asɛe aman a wɔko tia Yerusalem nyinaa.
10 “Ngizathululela phezu kwendlu kaDavida laphezu kwabakhileyo eJerusalema umoya womusa lobubele. Bazakhangela kimi, mina abamgwazayo, bangililele njengomuntu elilela umntanakhe ozelwe yedwa, bamkhalele kabuhlungu njengomuntu ekhalela indodana yakhe elizibulo.
“Mehwie adom ne nkotosrɛ honhom agu Dawid fie ne wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem so. Wɔbɛhwɛ me a wɔahwire me, na wɔatwa adwo ama no te sɛ obi a ɔretwa adwo wɔ ɔba korɔ ho, na wɔasu yaaya te sɛ obi a ɔresu ne ba barima piesie.
11 Ngalelolanga isililo eJerusalema sizakuba sikhulu njengesililo sikaHadadi-Rimoni emagcekeni aseMegido.
Saa ɛda no agyaadwo twerɛ a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no ano bɛyɛ den te sɛ Hadad-Rimon agyaadwo twerɛ wɔ Megido asase tam so.
12 Ilizwe lizalila, yilesosizwana sisodwa, labafazi babo bebodwa; isizwana sendlu kaDavida labafazi babo, isizwana sendlu kaNathani labafazi babo,
Asase no sofoɔ nyinaa bɛdi awerɛhoɔ, abusua biara ne wɔn yerenom; Dawid fie abusua ne wɔn yerenom, Natan fie abusua ne wɔn yerenom,
13 isizwana sendlu kaLevi labafazi babo, isizwana sikaShimeyi labafazi babo,
Lewifie abusua ne wɔn yerenom, Simei abusua ne wɔn yerenom,
14 lazozonke izizwana labafazi bazo.”
ne mmusua a aka no nyinaa ne wɔn yerenom.
