< UHezekheli 29 >

1 Ngomnyaka wetshumi, ngenyanga yetshumi, ngolwetshumi lambili lwenyanga, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi, lisithi:
Mfe du so ɔsram a ɛto so du no da a ɛto so dumien no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
2 Ndodana yomuntu, misa ubuso bakho bumelene loFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, uprofethe umelene laye, njalo umelene layo yonke iGibhithe.
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Misraimhene Farao so na hyɛ nkɔm tia no ne Misraim nyinaa.
3 Khuluma uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngimelane lawe, Faro, nkosi yeGibhithe, umgobho omkhulu olele phakathi kwemifula yawo, othi: Umfula wami ngowami, ngazenzela wona.
Kasa kyerɛ no na ka se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se. “‘Me ne wo anya, Misraimhene Farao asuboa kɛse a woda wo nsuwansuwa mu.’” Woka se, “Nil yɛ mede; meyɛ maa me ho.”
4 Kodwa ngizafaka izingwegwe emihlathini yakho, ngenze inhlanzi zemifula yakho zinamathele emaxolweni akho, ngikukhuphule phakathi kwemifula yakho, lazo zonke inhlanzi zemifula yakho zizanamathela emaxolweni akho.
Na mede nnarewa besuso wʼabogye mu na mama mpataa a wɔwɔ wo nsuwansuwa mu no atetare wʼabon ho. Mɛtwe wo afi wo nsuwansuwa no mu, a mpataa no nyinaa tetare wo ho.
5 Njalo ngizakutshiya enkangala, wena lazo zonke inhlanzi zemifula yakho; uzawela ebusweni beganga; kawuyikuhlanganiswa, kawuyikubuthwa; ngizakunikela ube yikudla kuzo izilo zeganga lenyoni zamazulu.
Megyaw wo hɔ wɔ sare no so, wo ne mpataa a wɔwɔ wo nsuwansuwa mu no nyinaa. Mobɛhwe ase wɔ asase petee mu a wɔremma mo so bio. Mede wo bɛma asase so mmoa ne wim nnomaa sɛ wɔn aduan.
6 Labo bonke abahlali beGibhithe bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, ngoba bebeludondolo lomhlanga kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli.
Afei wɔn a wɔte Misraim nyinaa behu sɛ mene Awurade no. “‘Woayɛ sɛ demmire pema ama Israelfi.
7 Lapho bekubamba ngesandla, wephula wadabula lonke ihlombe labo; lalapho beseyama kuwe, wephuka, wenza zonke inkalo zabo zama.
Wɔde wɔn nsa soo wo mu no, wo mu bukaw ma wuhuruwii, wotwerii wo no, wo mu bu ma wobɔɔ pemmɔ.
8 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizaletha inkemba phezu kwakho, ngiqume kusuke kuwe umuntu lenyamazana.
“‘Ɛno nti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede afoa bɛba abɛko atia wo na makunkum wo mmarima ne wɔn mmoa.
9 Lelizwe leGibhithe lizakuba yincithakalo lenkangala. Khona bezakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi. Ngoba uthe: Umfula ngowami, mina-ke ngiwenzile.
Misraim bɛda mpan na asɛe. Ɛno na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade. “‘Efisɛ wokae se, “Nil yɛ me de; me na meyɛe,” enti
10 Ngakho, khangela, ngimelene lawe, ngimelene lemifula yakho; ngenze ilizwe leGibhithe libe yizincithakalo isibili lenkangala, kusukela emphotshongweni kusiya eSevene kuze kube semngceleni weEthiyophiya.
me ne wo ne wo nsuwansuwa na anya, na mɛma Misraim asase asɛe na ada mpan, efi Migdol kosi Aswan twa mu de kɔka Kus hye so.
11 Kakulanyawo lomuntu oluzadlula kilo, kakulanyawo lwenyamazana oluzadlula kilo; futhi kaliyikuhlalwa okweminyaka engamatshumi amane.
Onipa anaa aboa biara nan rensi so, obiara rentena so mfe aduanan.
12 Ngoba ngizakwenza ilizwe leGibhithe libe yincithakalo phakathi kwamazwe wonke achithekileyo; lemizi yalo phakathi kwemizi engamanxiwa izakuba yincithakalo okweminyaka engamatshumi amane; njalo ngizahlakaza amaGibhithe phakathi kwezizwe, ngiwasabalalise emazweni.
Mɛma Misraim asase no ada mpan wɔ nsase a asɛe mu na ne nkuropɔn bɛda mpan mfe aduanan wɔ wɔn nkuropɔn a asɛe no mu. Na mɛbɔ Misraimfo apete wɔ amanaman mu, na mahwete wɔn wɔ nsase so.
13 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi amane ngizabutha amaGibhithe ebantwini abahlakazekele khona.
“‘Nanso sɛɛ ne nea Otumfo Awurade se: Mfe aduanan akyi no, mɛboaboa Misraimfo ano afi aman a mebɔɔ wɔn petee so no so.
14 Njalo ngizabuyisela abathunjwa beGibhithe, ngibenze babuyele elizweni lePatrosi, elizweni lokuzalwa kwabo; lapho-ke bazakuba ngumbuso ophansi.
Mede wɔn befi nnommumfa mu aba na mede wɔn akɔ Misraim Atifi, wɔn nenanom asase. Ɛhɔ na wɔbɛyɛ ahenni mu kumaa bi.
15 Lizakuba phansi kulayo imibuso, futhi kalisayikuziphakamisa phezu kwezizwe; ngoba ngizabanciphisa ukuze bangabuyi babuse phezu kwezizwe.
Ɛbɛyɛ ahenni a ɛnyɛ den na ɛrentumi mma ne ho so wɔ aman a aka no mu. Mɛyɛ no ahenni a ɛrentumi nni aman afoforo so.
16 Njalo kalisayikuba lithemba kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli, eletha ukukhunjulwa kwesiphambeko, lapho bephenduka ukulandela bona. Kodwa bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uJehova.
Misraim renyɛ ɔman a Israelfo de wɔn ho bɛto no so bio, mmom ɛbɛkae wɔn bɔne a wɔyɛɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn ho kɔdan no de pɛɛ mmoa. Afei, wobehu sɛ mene Otumfo Awurade no.’”
17 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa, ngenyanga yokuqala, ngolokuqala lwenyanga, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi, lisithi:
Mfe aduonu ason so, ɔsram a edi kan no da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
18 Ndodana yomuntu, uNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni wenza ibutho lakhe lakhonza inkonzo enkulu limelene leTire; lonke ikhanda laphucwa, lalo lonke ihlombe lasutshulwa; kanti yena kalamvuzo, lebutho lakhe, ngenxa yeTire, ngenxa yenkonzo ayikhonza emelene layo.
“Onipa ba, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne nʼasraafo tuu Tiro so sa abran so, eti biara so pepae, na ɔbati nso so popɔree. Nanso ɔne nʼasraafo no annya hwee amfi adwumaden a wɔyɛ de tiaa Tiro no mu.
19 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizanikela ilizwe leGibhithe kuNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni; njalo uzathatha ixuku layo, athumbe ukuthunjwa kwayo, aphange impango yayo; njalo kuzakuba liholo lebutho lakhe.
Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede Misraim rebɛhyɛ Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar nsa na ɔbɛsoa nʼahode akɔ. Ɔbɛfom asase no de ayɛ akatua ama nʼasraafo.
20 Ngimnike ilizwe leGibhithe kube ngumvuzo akhonza ngawo kulo, ngoba bangisebenzela, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Mede Misraim ama no sɛ nʼadwumayɛ so akatua, efisɛ ɔne nʼakofo yɛ maa me, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
21 Ngalolosuku ngizakwenza uphondo lwendlu kaIsrayeli lukhahlele, ngikunike ukukhamisa komlomo phakathi kwabo. Njalo bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
“Saa da no mɛma abɛn bi afifi ama Israelfi, na mebue wʼano wɔ wɔn mu. Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
