1 “Ngalelolanga umthombo uzavulelwa indlu kaDavida labakhileyo eJerusalema, ukubahlanza izono lokungcola.
“Saa da no, wobetu asubura ama Dawidfi ne Yerusalemfo de ahohoro wɔn bɔne ne wɔn ho fi.
2 Ngalelolanga ngizawasusa amabizo ezithombe elizweni ukuze zingakhunjulwa njalo,” kutsho uThixo uSomandla. “Ngizabasusa abaphrofethi kanye lomoya wokungcola phakathi kwelizwe.
“Saa da no, meyi ahoni no din afi asase no so, na wɔrenkae wɔn bio,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni. “Meyi adiyifo ne fi honhom afi asase no so.
3 Nxa ezabe elokhu ekhona ophrofethayo, uyise lonina abamzalayo bazakuthi kuye, ‘Kumele ufe ngoba usukhulume amanga ngegama likaThixo.’ Uzakuthi ephrofitha abazali bakhe ngokwabo bazamgwaza.
Sɛ obi kɔ so hyɛ nkɔm a agya ne ɛna a wɔwoo saa nipa no bɛka akyerɛ no se, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ wuwu, efisɛ, wode Awurade din atwa atoro.’ Sɛ ɔhyɛ nkɔm a, ɔno ankasa awofo bɛwɔ no afoa.
4 Ngalelolanga ngulowo lalowo umphrofethi uzaba lamanhloni ngombono wakhe wokuphrofetha. Akayikwembatha isivunulo somphrofethi esoboya ezama ukukhohlisa.
“Saa da no, odiyifo biara ani bewu wɔ ne nkɔmhyɛ anisoadehu ho. Ɔrenhyɛ odiyifo atade a wɔde nwi ayɛ no mfa nnaadaa nnipa.
5 Uzakuthi, ‘Kangisuye umphrofethi, ngingumlimi; umhlabathi uyilapho okulokuphila kwami kusukela ebutsheni bami’
Ɔbɛka se, ‘Menyɛ odiyifo. Meyɛ okuafo. Na efi me mmerantebere mu, asase yi so na minya mʼano aduan.’
6 Aluba ebuzwa kuthiwe, ‘Ngawani amanxeba la asemzimbeni wakho?’ Uzaphendula athi, ‘Ngamanxeba engawazuza endlini yabangane bami.’
Na sɛ obi bisa no se, ‘Akuru bɛn na ɛwɔ wo ho yi a?’ Obebua se, ‘Ɛyɛ akuru a minyaa wɔ me nnamfonom fi.’”
7 Vuka, wena nkemba, vukela umelusi wami, uvukele umuntu osekhwapheni lami!” kutsho uThixo uSomandla. “Tshaya umelusi, izimvu zizahlakazeka, njalo ngizaphendula isandla sami ngitshaye ezincinyane.
“Sɔre, afoa, sɔre tia me guanhwɛfo, tia onipa a ɔbɛn me!” Sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni. “Bɔ oguanhwɛfo no, na nguan no bɛbɔ ahwete, na mɛma me nsa so atia nguantenmma no.
8 Kulolonke ilizwe,” kutsho uThixo, “ezimbili kwezintathu zizatshaywa zife; kodwa ingxenye yesithathu izasala kulo.
Asase no so nyinaa,” sɛnea Awurade se ni, “Wɔbɛbɔ nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu abien ahwe fam ma wɔawuwu; na nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako bɛka wɔ so.
9 Le ingxenye yesithathu ngizayifaka emlilweni; ngizabancibilikisa ngibacenge njengesiliva ngibahlolisise njengegolide. Bazalibiza ibizo lami, lami ngizabaphendula; ngizakuthi, ‘Bangabantu bami,’ labo bazakuthi, ‘UThixo unguNkulunkulu wethu.’”
Mede nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako yi bɛfa ogya mu; mɛnan wɔn te sɛnea wɔnan dwetɛ, na masɔn wɔn so sɛ sikakɔkɔɔ. Wɔbɛbɔ me din afrɛ me, na megye wɔn so. Mɛka se, ‘Wɔyɛ me nkurɔfo,’ na wɔbɛka se, ‘Awurade yɛ yɛn Nyankopɔn.’”
