< UDutheronomi 32 >
1 Bekani indlebe, mazulu, ngizakhuluma, njalo zwana, mhlaba, amazwi omlomo wami.
Monyɛ aso, mo ɔsoro na mɛkasa; tie, wo asase, nsɛm a efi mʼanom.
2 Imfundiso yami izathonta njengezulu, inkulumo yami izathonta njengamazolo, njengomkhizo phezu kohlaza, lanjengemifefezo emibhideni.
Ma me nkyerɛkyerɛ ntɔ sɛ osu; na me nsɛm nsian sɛ obosu, sɛ osu a ɛpete gu sare foforo so, sɛ osu mmoroso wɔ afifide foforo so.
3 Ngoba ngizamemezela ibizo leNkosi. Mnikeni ubukhulu uNkulunkulu wethu.
Mɛbɔ Awurade din. O, monkamfo yɛn Nyankopɔn kɛseyɛ!
4 UliDwala, umsebenzi wakhe uphelele, ngoba zonke indlela zakhe ziyizahlulelo. UNkulunkulu weqiniso, ongelabubi, ulungile, uqondile.
Ɔne Ɔbotan no, ne nnwuma so nni, na nʼakwan nyinaa ye. Onyankopɔn nokwafo a ɔnyɛ mfomso, Ɔtreneeni ne ɔnokwafo ne no.
5 Bonile kuye, kabasibo abantwana bakhe, isici ngesabo, bayisizukulwana esigobileyo lesiphambeneyo.
Porɔwee adidi wɔn mu na wɔnyɛ ne mma; wɔyɛ awo ntoatoaso akɔntɔnkyefo aniwufo.
6 Lingahlawula lokho eNkosini yini, bantu abayizithutha labangahlakaniphanga? Kayisuye yini uyihlo owakuthengayo, wakwenza, wakumisa?
Saa ne ɔkwan a ɛsɛ sɛ mofa so tua Awurade ka ni ana, mo nkwaseafo ne adwenharefo? Ɛnyɛ ɔno ne mo Agya, mo yɛfo no? Ɛnyɛ ɔno na ɔbɔɔ mo na ɔmaa mo nnyinaso?
7 Khumbula insuku zendulo, unakane iminyaka yesizukulwana ngesizukulwana. Buza uyihlo, uzakulandisela, abadala bakho, bazakutshela.
Monkae tete nna; munnwen tete awo ntoatoaso no ho. Mummisa mo agya na ɔbɛkyerɛ mo. Mummisa mo mpanyimfo na wɔbɛkyerɛ mo ase.
8 Lapho oPhezukonke enika izizwe ilifa, lapho esehlukanisa amadodana kaAdamu, wamisa imingcele yezizwe njengenani labantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Bere a Ɔsorosoroni no maa amanaman no agyapade, na ɔkyekyɛɛ adesamma nyinaa mu no, ɔtotoo ahye maa nnipa no sɛnea Israelmma no dodow te.
9 Ngoba isabelo seNkosi ngabantu bayo, uJakobe uyinkatho yelifa layo.
Efisɛ Israelfo yɛ Awurade kyɛfa; Yakob yɛ nʼagyapade wɔde maa no.
10 Wamfica elizweni eliyinkangala, lenkangala engelalutho ebhongayo. Wamkhokhela wambhodisa, wamfundisa, wamgcina njengenhlamvu yelihlo lakhe.
Ohuu no wɔ sare asase so, asase kesee a hwee nni so so. Ɔde no sie hwɛɛ ne so; ɔbɔɔ ne ho ban sɛ nʼaniwa kurutiayisi,
11 Njengokhozi olunyakazisa isidleke salo, lundiza phezu kwamaphuphu alo, luselula impiko zalo, luwathatha, luwathwale ngezimpaphe zalo,
sɛ ɔkɔre a ɔhwanyan ne berebuw mu na ɔbɔ mfamfia fa ne mma ho, na ɔtrɛw ne ntaban mu buma no, soaa no kɔɔ no.
12 iNkosi yodwa yamkhokhela, njalo kwakungekho layo unkulunkulu wabezizwe.
Awurade nkutoo na ɔkyerɛɛ no kwan; na ananafo nyame biara nka ne ho.
13 Yamgadisa endaweni eziphakemeyo zomhlaba, ukuze adle izithelo zensimu. Yamondla ngoluju oluvela edwaleni, lamafutha aphuma elitsheni elilukhuni ledwala,
Ɔma no nantew faa asase no nkoko so; na ɔde mfuw so nnuaba bɔɔ no akɔnhama; Ɔde ɔbotan mu wo ne ngo a efi abohemaa mu,
14 izankefu zenkomo, lochago lwembuzi, kanye lamafutha amawundlu, lezinqama zohlobo lweBashani, lezimpongo, kanye lamahwahwa ezinso zengqoloyi; wena wasunatha igazi lezithelo zesivini, iwayini.
nyɛmmoa mu nufusu ne srade, nguamma ne mmirekyi a wɔadɔ srade, Basan adwennini a wɔpaw ne atoko muhumuhu siesiee no. Monom nsa papa a efi bobe mu.
15 Kodwa uJeshuruni wazimuka wakhaba. Usuzimukile, wakhuluphala, wembeswa ngamahwahwa. Yena wadela uNkulunkulu owamenzayo, wadelela iDwala losindiso lwakhe.
Yeshurun dɔɔ srade na onyaa ahoɔden; aduan ma wɔyɛɛ duru, yɛɛ pemee. Wɔtoo Onyankopɔn a ɔbɔɔ wɔn no asaworam; wɔpoo wɔn Nkwagye Botan no.
16 Bambangela ubukhwele ngokwezizwe, bamthukuthelisa ngezinengiso.
Wɔma ɔtwee ninkunu wɔ wɔn ananafo anyame no ho na wɔde wɔn abosom a okyi no hyɛɛ no abufuw.
17 Bahlabela amadimoni, hatshi uNkulunkulu, onkulunkulu ababengabazi, abatsha abavela eduze, oyihlo abangabesabanga.
Wɔbɔɔ afɔre maa atoro anyame a wɔnyɛ Onyankopɔn, anyame a na wonnim wɔn, anyame a wɔbaa nnansa yi ara, anyame a na mo agyanom nsuro wɔn.
18 IDwala elakuzalayo ulikhohliwe, wamkhohlwa uNkulunkulu owakuzalayo.
Mopaa Ɔbotan a ɔyɛɛ mo agya no. Mo werɛ fii Onyankopɔn a ɔwoo mo no.
19 Kwathi iNkosi ikubona, yanengwa yibo, ngenxa yentukuthelo yamadodana ayo lamadodakazi ayo.
Awurade huu eyi na ɔpoo wɔn efisɛ ne mmabarima ne ne mmabea hyɛɛ no abufuw.
20 Yasisithi: Ngizabafihlela ubuso bami, ngibone ukuthi ukuphela kwabo kuzakuba yini; ngoba bayisizukulwana esiphambeneyo, abantwana okungelakuthembeka kibo.
Ɔkae se, “Mede mʼanim behintaw wɔn na wɔahu sɛnea wɔn awiei bɛyɛ Efisɛ, wɔyɛ awo ntoatoaso akɔntɔnkyefo; mma a wonni nokware.
21 Bona bangenze ngaba lobukhwele ngokungesuye uNkulunkulu; bangithukuthelisile ngezinto zabo eziyize. Ngakho ngizabenza babe lobukhwele ngabangeyisibo abantu; ngibathukuthelise ngesizwe esiyisithutha.
Wɔde nea ɛnyɛ Onyame ahyɛ me ninkutwe na wɔde wɔn ahoni ahuhuw no ahyɛ me abufuw. Mɛma wɔn ani abere nnipa a wɔnyɛ me nkurɔfo. Mɛma ɔman a wonni ntease no ahyɛ wɔn abufuw.
22 Ngoba umlilo usubasiwe entukuthelweni yami, uyavutha kuze kube sesihogweni esingaphansi kakhulu; uzaqeda umhlaba lezithelo zawo, ulumathise izisekelo zezintaba. (Sheol )
Efisɛ mʼabufuwhyew befita ogya mu, nea ɛhyew kɔka awufo a wɔwɔ asase ase no. Ɛbɛsɛe asase ne so nnɔbae na ɛpaapae mmepɔw fapem. (Sheol )
23 Ngizabuthelela ububi phezu kwabo, ngiqedele imitshoko yami kubo.
“Mɛhɔre amanehunu ahorow no siw wɔ wɔn so na matow me bɛmma awowɔ wɔn.
24 Bazamunywa yindlala, baqedwe yikutshisa lencithakalo ebabayo; njalo ngizathumela phakathi kwabo amazinyo ezilo, lobuhlungu bezihuquzelayo zothuli.
Mede ɔkɔm kɛse, atiridiinini ne owuyare a ɛsɛe ade; mɛsoma nkekammoa se aba wɔn so; nhurutoa a wɔtow si wɔ mfutuma mu no ano bɔre.
25 Ngaphandle inkemba izabenza bafelwe, ngokunjalo uvalo ezindlini ezingaphakathi, ijaha lalo lentombi emsulwa, omunyayo kanye lendoda eyimpunga.
Afoa bɛma wɔahwere wɔn mma wɔ abɔnten so; wɔn afi mu, ehu bɛtɔ wɔn so. Mmerante ne mmabaa, mmofra ne nkwakoraa ase bɛhyew.
26 Ngathi: Ngizabahlakaza, ngenze ukukhunjulwa kwabo kuphele phakathi kwabantu;
Mekae se mɛbɔ wɔn ahwete na mapepa wɔn din afi nnipa adwene mu.
27 uba bengingesabi intukuthelo yesitha, hlezi abazondi babo bahlanekele, hlezi bathi: Isandla sethu siphakeme; leNkosi kakusiyo eyenze konke lokhu.
Nanso misuroo ɔtamfo fɛwdi, anyɛ a na ɔtamfo ante ase aka se, ‘Yɛn nsa adi nkonim; Ɛnyɛ Awurade na ɔyɛɛ eyinom nyinaa.’”
28 Ngoba bayisizwe esingelakwelulekwa, njalo kakukho ukuqedisisa kubo.
Israel yɛ ɔman a wonni adwene. Obi nni wɔn mu a ɔwɔ nhumu.
29 Kwangathi ngabe bebehlakaniphile, bebengaqedisisa lokhu, bazwisise isiphetho sabo!
Sɛ anka wɔyɛ anyansafo na wɔbɛte eyi ase, na wɔahu nea wɔn awiei bɛyɛ ɛ!
30 Oyedwa angaxotsha njani abayinkulungwane, lababili babalekise abayizinkulungwane ezilitshumi, ngaphandle kokuthi iDwala labo libathengisile, leNkosi ibanikele?
Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na onipa baako ataa nnipa apem, na baanu bɛma mpem du aguan, gye sɛ wɔn Botan atɔn wɔn gye sɛ Awurade ayi wɔn ama.
31 Ngoba idwala labo kalinjengeDwala lethu; njengoba izitha zethu zingabahluleli.
Efisɛ wɔn botan nte sɛ yɛn Botan, sɛnea yɛn atamfo mpo gye to mu no.
32 Ngoba ivini labo livela evinini leSodoma, lemasimini eGomora; izithelo zabo zesivini ziyizithelo zesivini zenyongo; zilamahlukuzo ababayo.
Wɔn bobe fi Sodom bobe mu na efi Gomora mfuw mu. Awuduru ahyɛ wɔn bobe aba mma, na bɔnwoma ahyɛ wɔn kasiaw amaama.
33 Iwayini labo liyibuhlungu bemigobho, lobuhlungu obulesihluku bamabululu.
Wɔn bobesa yɛ awɔ ano bɔre; aprammiri ano bɔrewerɛmfo.
34 Lokho kakubekiwe kimi yini, kunanyekiwe emagugwini ami?
“So menkoraa eyi mmoroso, na mensɔw ano wɔ mʼademude mu ana
35 Ngeyami impindiselo lokubuyisela, ngesikhathi sokutshelela konyawo lwabo; ngoba usuku lwengozi yabo selusondele, lezinto abazilungiselweyo ziyaphangisa.
Mɛtɔ were; metua so ka. Wɔn nan bɛwatiri bere a ɛsɛ mu; wɔn atoyerɛnkyɛm no abɛn na wɔn sɛe taa wɔn.”
36 Ngoba iNkosi izabahlulela abantu bayo, izisole ngenceku zayo, lapho ibona ukuthi amandla asehambile, lokuthi kakho ovalelweyo lokhululekileyo.
Awurade bebu ne nkurɔfo atɛn na wasesa nʼadwene wɔ ne nkoa ho, bere a wahu sɛ wɔn ahoɔden asa, na ɛnkaa obiara, akoa anaa ɔdehye.
37 Khona izakuthi: Bangaphi onkulunkulu babo, idwala ababephephela kulo,
Obebisa se, “Afei wɔn anyame no wɔ he, ɔbotan a wɔde yɛɛ wɔn guankɔbea,
38 abadla amafutha emihlatshelo yabo, banatha iwayini lomnikelo wabo wokuthululwa? Kabavuke, balisize, babe yisivikelo senu.
anyame a wodii wɔn afɔrebɔde mu srade na wɔnom wɔn ɔnom afɔrebɔ mu nsa no? Ma wɔnsɔre mmɛboa mo! Ma womegye mo!
39 Bonani khathesi ukuthi mina, nginguye, njalo kakho unkulunkulu olami; mina ngiyabulala, njalo ngiphilise; ngiyatshaya, njalo mina ngelaphe; njalo kakho ongahluthuna esandleni sami.
“Afei, munhu sɛ, me ara me ne no! Onyame biara nni hɔ sɛ me! Me na mikum na mema nkwa: Me na mipira, na mɛkyekye, na obi rentumi nnye mfi me nsam.
40 Ngoba ngiphakamisela isandla sami emazulwini, ngithi: Ngiyaphila kuze kube phakade,
Mema me nsa so kyerɛ ɔsoro de nidi sua sɛ: Sɛ mete ase daa yi,
41 nxa ngilola inkemba yami ephazimayo, lesandla sami sibambelela ekwahluleleni, ngizabuyisela impindiselo ezitheni zami, ngibavuze abangizondayo.
sɛ mesew me afoa a ɛpa yerɛwyerɛw no na mifi atemmu mu so mu kuaw a, mɛtɔ mʼatamfo so were na matua wɔn a wokyi me ka.
42 Ngizadakisa imitshoko yami ngegazi, lenkemba yami izakudla inyama, ngegazi labagwaziweyo labathunjiweyo, ekuqaliseni kwezimpindiselo ngimelene lesitha.
Mɛma me bɛmma anom mogya abow, na mʼafoa adi ɔhonam, atɔfo ne nnommumfo mogya, atamfo ntuanofo no ti.”
43 Thokozani zizwe, bantu bayo; ngoba izaphindisela igazi lenceku zayo, ibuyisele impindiselo kuzitha zayo, yenzele ilizwe layo, abantu bayo, inhlawulo yokuthula.
Mo aman, mo ne ne nkurɔfo nni ahurusi, efisɛ ɔbɛtɔ ne nkoa mogya so were; ɔbɛtɔ were wɔ nʼatamfo so na wapata ama nʼasase ne ne nkurɔfo.
44 UMozisi wasesiza, wakhuluma wonke amazwi alingoma endlebeni zabantu, yena loHoseya indodana kaNuni.
Mose ne Nun babarima Hosea ba bɛkaa dwom yi mu nsɛm nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no.
45 UMozisi eseqedile ukukhuluma wonke lamazwi kuIsrayeli wonke,
Mose woroo saa dwom no mu nsɛm no kyerɛɛ Israelfo no wiee no,
46 wathi kubo: Bekani inhliziyo yenu kuwo wonke amazwi engiwafakaza phakathi kwenu lamuhla, ukuthi libalaye abantwana benu bagcine ukuwenza wonke amazwi alumlayo.
ɔka kaa ho se, “Momfa nsɛm a maka akyerɛ mo no nyinaa nsie mo koma mu. Monka nkyerɛ mo mma nso, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobedi saa mmara yi mu nsɛm nyinaa so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
47 Ngoba kakusiyo into eyize kini, ngoba kuyimpilo yenu; ngalinto lizakwelula izinsuku elizweni elichapha iJordani ukuya kulo ukudla ilifa lalo.
Saa nkyerɛkyerɛ yi nyɛ nsɛm bi a wɔde rema mo kwa, ɛyɛ mo nkwa! Sɛ mudi so a, mubenyin akyɛ wɔ asase a moretwa Asubɔnten Yordan akɔfa no so.”
48 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi ngalona lolosuku isithi:
Da no ara, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
49 Yenyukela kule intaba yeAbarimi, intaba yeNebo, eselizweni lakoMowabi emaqondana leJeriko, ubone ilizwe leKhanani engilinika abantwana bakoIsrayeli ukuba yilifa,
“Kɔ Moab, kɔ mmepɔw a ɛwɔ asu no apuei no so, na foro Nebo bepɔw a ɛne Yeriko di nhwɛanim no. To wʼani hwɛ Kanaan asase no, asase a mede rema Israelfo sɛ wɔn agyapade no.
50 ufele entabeni owenyukela kuyo, ubuthelwe ebantwini bakini, njengoAroni umnewenu efela entabeni yeHori, wabuthelwa ebantwini bakibo.
Bepɔw a woaforo no so hɔ na wobɛkɔ akɔka wʼagyanom ho, sɛnea wo nua Aaron wuu wɔ Hor bepɔw so kɔkaa nʼagyanom ho no.
51 Ngenxa yokuthi laphambana lami phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli emanzini eMeriba-Kadeshi enkangala yeZini; ngoba kalingingcwelisanga phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Efisɛ mo baanu dii me huammɔ wɔ Israelfo mu wɔ Meriba ne Kades asu ho wɔ Sin sare so. Moanni me kronkronyɛ ho adanse ankyerɛ Israelfo no wɔ hɔ.
52 Ngoba unganeno uzalibona ilizwe, kodwa kawuyikungena khona, elizweni engilinika abantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Ɛno nti, mubehu asase no afi akyiri, nanso morenkɔ asase a mede rema Israelfo no so.”
