< UHezekheli 11 >
1 UMoya wasengiphakamisa, wangiletha esangweni lempumalanga lendlu yeNkosi, elikhangele ngempumalanga; khangela-ke, emnyango wesango kwakukhona amadoda angamatshumi amabili lanhlanu; laphakathi kwawo ngabona uJahazaniya indodana kaAzuri, loPelatiya indodana kaBhenaya, iziphathamandla zabantu.
Afei honhom no maa me so de me baa Awurade fi pon a ani kyerɛ apuei fam no ano. Na mmarima aduonu anum wɔ hɔ, na mihuu Asur babarima Yaasania ne Benaia babarima Pelatia a wɔyɛ nnipa no ntuanofo.
2 Wasesithi kimi: Ndodana yomuntu, lawa ngamadoda acabanga inkohlakalo, aceba iseluleko esibi kulumuzi,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Onipa ba, eyinom ne mmarima a wɔbɔ pɔw bɔne na wotu fo bɔne wɔ kuropɔn yi mu.
3 athi: Kakuseduze ukwakha izindlu; lumuzi uyimbiza, lathi siyinyama.
Wɔkae se, ‘Bere a wɔde sisi afi no nnuu so ana? Kuropɔn yɛ dadesɛn, na yɛyɛ nam.’
4 Ngakho profetha umelene lawo, profetha, ndodana yomuntu.
Ɛno nti hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn, hyɛ nkɔm, onipa ba.”
5 UMoya weNkosi wasewela phezu kwami, wathi kimi: Khuluma uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Litshilo njalo, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli, ngoba izinto ezivela engqondweni yenu, mina ngiyazazi yileyo laleyo yazo.
Afei, Awurade Honhom baa me so na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se menka se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Saa na moreka, mo Israel akannifo, nanso minim nsusuwii a ɛwɔ mo adwene mu.
6 Landisile ababuleweyo benu kulumuzi, lagcwalisa izitalada zawo ngababuleweyo.
Moakunkum nnipa bebree wɔ kuropɔn yi mu, na mode afunu ahyehyɛ ne mmɔnten so amaama.
7 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ababuleweyo benu elibabeke phakathi kwawo, bona bayinyama, lalo umuzi uyimbiza; kodwa lina ngizalikhupha phakathi kwawo.
“Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Afunu a moatotow apete hɔ no yɛ nam na kuropɔn yi ne dadesɛn no, nanso mɛpam mo afi mu.
8 Liyesabile inkemba, njalo ngizayiletha inkemba phezu kwenu, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Musuro afoa, na ɛno ara na mede bɛba mo so, sɛɛ na Awurade se.
9 Njalo ngizalikhupha phakathi kwawo, ngilinikele esandleni sabezizwe, ngenze izigwebo phakathi kwenu.
Mɛpam mo afi kuropɔn no mu na mede mo ahyɛ ananafo nsa, na matwe mo aso.
10 Lizakuwa ngenkemba, ngiligwebe emngceleni wakoIsrayeli; njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
Mobɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano, na mebu mu atɛn wɔ Israel asase so. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
11 Lo umuzi kawuyikuba yimbiza yenu, kumbe lina libe yinyama phakathi kwawo; ngizaligweba emngceleni wakoIsrayeli.
Saa kuropɔn yi remmɔ mo ho ban sɛnea dadesɛn bɔ nam a ɛwɔ mu no ho ban no; Mebu mo atɛn wɔ Israel asase so.
12 Njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi; ngoba kalihambanga ezimisweni zami, lezahlulelo zami kalizenzanga, kodwa lenze njengokwezahlulelo zezizwe ezilihanqileyo.
Na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no, efisɛ moanni mʼahyɛde so, moapo me mmara na nea aman a atwa mo ho ahyia no yɛ no na mo nso moyɛ.”
13 Kwasekusithi ngisaprofetha, uPelatiya indodana kaBhenaya wafa. Ngasengisithi mbo ngobuso bami phansi, ngamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu ngathi: Hawu, Nkosi Jehova, uzaqeda ngokupheleleyo yini insali yakoIsrayeli?
Afei bere a migu so rehyɛ nkɔm no, Benaia babarima Pelatia wui. Na mede mʼanim butuw fam suu dennen se, “Aa, Otumfo Awurade, wobɛtɔre Israel nkae yi ase koraa ana?”
14 Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
15 Ndodana yomuntu, abafowenu, abafowenu, abantu bezihlobo zakho, layo yonke indlu yakoIsrayeli, yonke, bayilabo abahlali beJerusalema abathi kubo: Sukani khatshana leNkosi; lelilizwe linikwe thina ukuze libe yilifa.
“Onipa ba, wo nuabarimanom, wɔn a wo ne wɔn yɛ mogya baako ne Israelfi nyinaa, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem kasa fa wɔn ho se, ‘Wɔne Awurade ntam kwan ware, na wɔde saa asase yi maa yɛn sɛ yɛn agyapade.’”
16 Ngakho wothi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lanxa ngibase khatshana phakathi kwezizwe, njalo lanxa ngibahlakaze phakathi kwamazwe, kanti ngizakuba kubo yindawo engcwele encinyane emazweni abafika kiwo.
“Ɛno nti ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛwɔ mu sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ akyirikyiri wɔ amanaman mu, hwetee wɔn guu nsase so de, nanso bere tiaa bi mu no meyɛɛ wɔn kronkronbea wɔ nsase a na wɔwɔ so no so.’
17 Ngakho wothi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Yebo, ngizaliqoqa ezizweni, ngilibuthe emazweni engilihlakazele kiwo, ngilinike ilizwe lakoIsrayeli.
“Enti ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mɛboaboa mo ano afi amanaman no ne nsase a mehwetee mo guu so no asan aba, na mede Israel asase bɛsan ama mo.’
18 Njalo bazafika kulo, basuse kulo zonke izinto ezinengekayo zalo lawo wonke amanyala alo.
“Wɔbɛsan aba so na wɔayiyi nsɛsode atantan ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no nyinaa.
19 Njalo ngizabanika inhliziyo eyodwa, ngifake umoya omutsha phakathi kwenu, ngikhuphe inhliziyo yelitshe enyameni yabo, ngibanike inhliziyo yenyama;
Mɛma wɔn koma koro na mede honhom foforo ahyɛ wɔn mu; meyi wɔn komaden no na mama wɔn koma a ɛyɛ mmerɛw.
20 ukuze bahambe ngezimiso zami, bagcine izahlulelo zami bazenze; njalo bazakuba ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo.
Afei wobedi mʼahyɛde so na wɔahwɛ akora me mmara yiye. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfo na mayɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn.
21 Kodwa labo abanhliziyo yabo ihamba ngokwenhliziyo yezinto zabo ezinengekayo lamanyala abo, ngizakwehlisela indlela yabo phezu kwekhanda labo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Nanso wɔn a wɔde wɔn koma ama nsɛsode atantan ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no de, mɛma nea wɔayɛ no abɔ wɔn ti so, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se.”
22 Amakherubhi asephakamisa impiko zawo, lamavili eceleni kwawo; lenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli yayiphezu kwawo ngaphezulu.
Afei kerubim no ne wɔn nkyimii trɛtrɛw wɔn ntaban mu, na Israel Nyankopɔn anuonyam konkɔn wɔn so.
23 Lenkazimulo yeNkosi yenyuka isuka phakathi komuzi, yema phezu kwentaba engasempumalanga komuzi.
Awurade anuonyam maa ne ho so fii kuropɔn no mu kogyinaa bepɔw a ɛwɔ apuei fam no atifi.
24 UMoya wasengiphakamisa, wangisa ngombono ngoMoya kaNkulunkulu eKhaladiya kubo abokuthunjwa. Ngokunjalo umbono engangiwubonile wenyuka wasuka kimi.
Honhom no maa me so de me baa nnommum a wɔwɔ Babilonia no nkyɛn wɔ anisoadehu a Onyankopɔn Honhom maa me no mu. Afei anisoade a mihuu no fii me so kɔɔ ɔsoro.
25 Ngasengikhuluma kubo abokuthunjwa wonke amazwi eNkosi eyayingibonise wona.
Na mekaa biribiara a Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me no kyerɛɛ nnommum no.
