UHezekheli 36
1 Wena-ke ndodana yomuntu, profetha kuzo izintaba zakoIsrayeli, uthi: Lina zintaba zakoIsrayeli, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi.
“Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ Israel mmepɔ na ka sɛ: ‘Israel mmepɔ, montie Awurade asɛm.
2 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngoba isitha sitshilo simelene lani: Aha, ngitsho izindawo zasendulo eziphakemeyo ziyilifa lethu;
Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Sɛe na ɔtamfoɔ no ka faa wo ho, “Ahaa! Tete sorɔnsorɔmmea no abɛyɛ yɛn dea.”’
3 ngakho profetha uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngoba, yebo, ngoba bakwenze incithakalo, baliginya inhlangothi zonke, ukuze libe yilifa kuyo insali yabezizwe, liphakanyiswa endebeni zolimi, laba lunyeyo lwabantu;
Ɛno enti, hyɛ nkɔm na ka sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Esiane sɛ wɔasɛe mo na wɔataataa mo wɔ afa nyinaa, na ɛno enti mobɛyɛɛ aman a aka no agyapadeɛ ne ahohoradeɛ a ɛda wɔn a wɔsi wo atwetwe ano,
4 ngakho, lina zintaba zakoIsrayeli, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi uJehova: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova ezintabeni, lemaqaqeni, emifuleni, lezihotsheni, lemanxiweni achithekileyo, lemizini etshiyiweyo, esibe yimpango lenhlekisa kunsali yezizwe ezizingelezeleyo.
ɛno enti, Israel mmepɔ, montie Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm: Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade ka kyerɛ mmepɔ ne nkokoɔ, subɔnka ne bɔnhwa, mmubuiɛ a ada mpan ne deɛ ayɛ afo, fomfa nkuro a animguaseɛ aka wɔn wɔ aman no nkaeɛ a atwa wɔn ho ahyia no mu.
5 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Isibili ngomlilo wobukhwele bami sengikhulume ngimelene lensali yabezizwe, ngimelene leEdoma yonke, abazinikele ilizwe lami ukuthi libe yilifa ngentokozo yenhliziyo yonke, ngengqondo yokudelela, ngenxa yokuliphosa libe yimpango.
Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mefiri anem a emu yɛ den mu akasa atia amanaman a aka no ne Edom nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ wɔde fɛdie ne adwemmɔne ayɛ me ɔman wɔn agyapadeɛ sɛdeɛ wɔbɛtumi afom nʼadidibea.’
6 Ngakho profetha ngelizwe lakoIsrayeli, uthi ezintabeni, lemaqaqeni, emifuleni, lezihotsheni: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngikhulumile ebukhweleni bami lelakeni lwami, ngoba lithwele ihlazo lezizwe.
Ɛno enti, hyɛ nkɔm a ɛfa Israel asase ho, na ka kyerɛ mmepɔ ne nkokoɔ, subɔnhwa ne bɔnhwa sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mede ninkunutweɛ mu anibereɛ kasa, ɛfiri sɛ amanaman no abu wo animtiaa.
7 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Mina ngiphakamisile isandla sami. Isibili izizwe ezilihanqileyo, yizo ezizathwala ihlazo lazo.
Enti yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mema me nsa so ka ntam sɛ amanaman a atwa wo ho ahyia no nso, wɔbɛbu wɔn animtiaa.
8 Kodwa lina, zintaba zakoIsrayeli, lizaveza ingatsha zenu, lithele isithelo senu kubantu bami uIsrayeli, ngoba basondela ukubuya.
“‘Nanso mo, Israel mmepɔ, mobɛnya mman, aso aba ama me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ ɛrenkyɛre wɔbɛba efie.
9 Ngoba, khangelani, ngilani, ngiphendukele ngakini, njalo lizalinywa lihlanyelwe.
Mo ho hia me na mɛhunu mo mmɔbɔ; wɔbɛfuntum mo na wɔadua mo so aba,
10 Njalo ngizakwandisa abantu phezu kwenu, yonke indlu kaIsrayeli, yona yonke; lemizi izahlalwa, lamanxiwa azakwakhiwa.
na mɛma wo so nnipa adɔɔso. Israel efie nyinaa mpo, nnipa bɛtena wo nkuro no so bio, na wɔbɛsisi mmubuiɛ no nso.
11 Njalo ngizakwandisa phezu kwenu umuntu lenyamazana, njalo kuzakwanda kuthele izithelo; ngilenze lihlale njengasezindaweni zenu zendulo, ngikwenze kube kuhle kulezikhathi zenu zokuqala. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
Israel mmepɔ, mɛma mmarima ne mmoa adɔɔso mo so na wɔbɛwowo na wɔadɔre, mɛma nnipa atena wo mu te sɛ kane no na wɔbɛma woadi yie asene kane no. Na afei mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
12 Yebo ngizakwenza abantu bahambe phezu kwenu, abantu bami uIsrayeli; badle ilifa lakho, wena ube yilifa labo, kawusayikubenza bafelwe ngabantwana futhi.
Mɛma nkurɔfoɔ, me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ, anante wo so. Wɔbɛfa wo na wobɛyɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ na woremma wɔnni mmakuna bio.
13 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngoba bathi kini: Wena ungumudli wabantu, wenze izizwe zakho zifelwe ngabantwana.
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Esiane sɛ nkurɔfoɔ ka kyerɛ wo sɛ, “Israel asase, wokum nnipa we na woma wo ɔman no hwere nʼadehyeɛ” enti,
14 Ngakho kawusayikudla abantu, kawusayikukhubekisa izizwe zakho, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
worenkum nnipa nwe bio na woremma wo ɔman nhwere nʼadehyeɛ bio, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
15 Njalo kangisayikuzwakalisa kuwe ihlazo lezizwe, kawusayikuthwala inhloni zabantu, kawusayikukhubekisa izizwe, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Meremma wo nte amanaman no fɛdie bio, na worenhunu nkurɔfoɔ no animtiabuo bio, na wo ɔman nso renhwe ase bio, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.’”
16 Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
17 Ndodana yomuntu, abendlu kaIsrayeli besahlala elizweni lakibo, balingcolisa ngendlela yabo langezenzo zabo; indlela yabo phambi kwami yayifanana lokungcola kowesifazana osemfuleni.
“Onipa ba, ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ te wɔn ankasa asase soɔ no, wɔde wɔn abrabɔ ne wɔn nneyɛɛ guu asase no ho fi. Na wɔn abrabɔ te sɛ ɔbaa bosome nsabuo wɔ mʼani so.
18 Ngakho ngathululela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo ngenxa yegazi ababelichithe elizweni, langenxa yezithombe zabo ababelingcolise ngazo.
Enti mehwiee mʼabufuhyeɛ guu wɔn so ɛfiri sɛ wahwie mogya agu asase no so na wɔde wɔn abosom agu hɔ fi.
19 Ngasengibahlakaza phakathi kwezizwe, basabalaliswa phakathi kwamazwe; ngabahlulela njengokwendlela yabo lanjengokwezenzo zabo.
Mebɔɔ wɔn petee amanaman no so na wɔhwetee wɔn guu nsase no so; megyinaa wɔn abrabɔ ne wɔn nneyɛɛ so buu wɔn atɛn.
20 Lapho befika kwabezizwe, lapho abaya khona, bangcolisa ibizo lami elingcwele, lapho kwathiwa ngabo: Laba ngabantu beNkosi, baphume elizweni layo.
Na baabiara a wɔkɔɔ wɔ amanaman mu no, wɔguu me din kronkron ho fi, ɛfiri sɛ wɔkaa wɔ wɔn ho sɛ, ‘Yeinom yɛ Awurade nkurɔfoɔ, nanso na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfiri nʼasase so.’
21 Kodwa ngalihawukela ibizo lami elingcwele, indlu kaIsrayeli eyayilingcolise phakathi kwezizwe, lapho abaya khona.
Me din kronkron ho hia me, deɛ Israel efie guu ho fi wɔ amanaman a wɔkɔɔ so mu no.
22 Ngakho tshono kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Kangikwenzi ngenxa yenu, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli, kodwa ngenxa yebizo lami elingcwele, elilingcolisileyo phakathi kwezizwe, lapho elaya khona.
“Ɛno enti, ka kyerɛ Israel efie sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Israel efie, ɛnyɛ mo enti na merebɛyɛ saa nneɛma yi, na mmom me din kronkron no enti, deɛ moguu ho fi wɔ amanaman a mokɔɔ so mu no.
23 Njalo ngizangcwelisa ibizo lami elikhulu, elingcoliswe phakathi kwezizwe, elilingcolisileyo phakathi kwazo; lezizwe zizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, itsho iNkosi uJehova, lapho ngizangcweliswa kini emehlweni abo.
Mɛda me din kɛseyɛ no kronkronyɛ a woagu ho fi wɔ amanaman mu no adi, edin a woagu ho fi wɔ wɔn mu no. Sɛ mefa wo so da me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni ma wɔhunu a, afei amanaman no bɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
24 Ngoba ngizalithatha ezizweni, ngilibuthe emazweni wonke, ngililethe elizweni lenu.
“‘Na mɛyi wo afiri amanaman no mu, mɛboaboa mo ano afiri nsase no nyinaa so de mo asane aba mo ankasa asase so.
25 Khona ngizafafaza amanzi ahlambulukileyo phezu kwenu, lihlambuluke; kukho konke ukungcola kwenu, lakuzo zonke izithombe zenu, ngizalihlambulula.
Mede nsuo korɔgyenn bɛpete mo so na mo ho ate: Mɛte mo ho afiri nkekaawa ne mo ahoni nyinaa ho.
26 Ngilinike inhliziyo entsha, ngifake umoya omutsha phakathi kwenu, ngisuse inhliziyo yelitshe enyameni yenu, ngilinike inhliziyo yenyama.
Mɛma wo akoma foforɔ na mede honhom foforɔ ahyɛ wo mu. Mɛyi akoma a ɛte sɛ ɛboɔ no afiri wo mu na mama wo akoma foforɔ a ɛte sɛ honam.
27 Ngifake uMoya wami phakathi kwenu, ngilenze ukuthi lihambe ngezimiso zami, ligcine izahlulelo zami lizenze.
Na mede me Honhom bɛhyɛ wo mu na mama woadi mʼahyɛdeɛ so na woahwɛ adi me mmara so.
28 Lizahlala-ke elizweni engalinika oyihlo, libe ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu.
Mobɛtena asase a mede maa mo agyanom no so. Mobɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ na mayɛ mo Onyankopɔn.
29 Njalo ngizalisindisa kukho konke ukungcola kwenu; ngibize amabele, ngiwandise, ngingabeki ndlala phezu kwenu.
Mɛprapra mo ho fi nyinaa. Mɛma aduane aba ama abu so na meremma ɛkɔm mma mo so.
30 Ngandise isithelo sesihlahla, lesivuno sensimu, ukuze lingaphindi lemukele ihlazo lendlala phakathi kwezizwe.
Mɛma nnua so aba ayɛ bebree na mfuo nso abɔ nnɔbaeɛ sɛdeɛ ɛkɔm enti mo anim rengu ase bio wɔ amanaman no mu.
31 Khona lizakhumbula izindlela zenu ezimbi lezenzo zenu ezingalunganga; linengeke ngani ngokwenu ngobubi benu langenxa yezinengiso zenu.
Afei, wobɛkae wʼakwammɔne ne wʼamumuyɛ, na wo bɔne ne akyiwadeɛ enti, wo ho bɛyɛ wo nwunu.
32 Kangikwenzi ngenxa yenu, itsho iNkosi uJehova; kakwaziwe kini. Banini lenhloni libe lehlazo ngenxa yezindlela zenu, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli.
Mepɛ sɛ mohunu sɛ ɛnyɛ mo enti na mereyɛ yei, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie. Momfɛre na momma mo ani nnwu wɔ mo abrabɔ ho, Ao Israel efie.
33 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Mhla ngilihlambulula kubo bonke ububi benu, ngizakwenza imizi ihlalwe, lamanxiwa akhiwe.
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛda a mɛte mo ho afiri mo bɔne ho no, mɛma nnipa atena mo nkuro so bio na wɔbɛsisi mmubuiɛ no bio.
34 Lelizwe elichithekileyo lizalinywa, endaweni yokuthi beliyinkangala emehlweni abo bonke abadlulayo.
Asase a ada mpan no, wɔbɛdua so nneɛma na ɛrenna hɔ kwa sɛdeɛ na ɛteɛ wɔ wɔn a na wɔtwam hɔ no ani soɔ no.
35 Njalo bazakuthi: Lelilizwe ebeselichithekile selinjengesivande seEdeni; lemizi eyinkangala lengamanxiwa lediliziweyo isibiyelwe yahlalwa.
Wɔbɛka sɛ, “Saa asase a ada mpan yi ayɛ sɛ Eden turo. Nkuropɔn a na adane mmubuiɛ, ayɛ afoafo na asɛe yi, wɔabɔ ho ban na nnipa abɛtenatena mu.”
36 Khona izizwe ezisele zilizingelezele zizakwazi ukuthi mina iNkosi ngakha indawo ezidiliziweyo, ngihlanyele ezichithekileyo. Mina Nkosi ngikhulumile, ngizakwenza.
Afei aman a aka a atwa wo ho ahyia no bɛhunu sɛ me Awurade, makyekyere deɛ na asɛeɛ na madua wɔ deɛ na ada mpan soɔ, me Awurade na maka na mɛyɛ.’
37 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Langalokhu ngizacelwa yindlu kaIsrayeli, ukuthi ngiyenzele khona; ngizabandisa ngabantu njengomhlambi.
“Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mɛtie Israel efie abisadeɛ na mayɛ yei ama wɔn; Mɛma wɔn nkurɔfoɔ adɔɔso sɛ nnwan,
38 Njengomhlambi ongcwele, njengomhlambi weJerusalema emikhosini yawo emisiweyo, ngokunjalo imizi echithekileyo izagcwala ngemihlambi yabantu. Khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
wɔbɛdɔɔso sɛ nnwankuo a wɔde wɔn kɔ Yerusalem sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ wɔ afahyɛ nna. Saa ara na nnipa dodoɔ bɛhyɛ nkuropɔn a abubuo no so ma. Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
