< U-Isaya 22 >

1 Umthwalo wesigodi sombono. Kutheni kuwe khathesi, ukuthi ngulowo lalowo wakho akhwele empahleni zezindlu?
Nkɔmhyɛ a etia Anisoadehu Bon no: Dɛn na ɛhaw mo mprempren, a mo nyinaa aforo kɔ adan atifi yi,
2 Wena ogcwele imisindo, muzi oxokozelayo, dolobho elilentokozo, ababuleweyo bakho kababulawanga ngenkemba, kabafelanga empini.
kurow a basabasayɛ ahyɛ no ma, huuyɛ ne ahosɛpɛw kuropɔn? Ɛnyɛ afoa ano na wʼatɔfo hweree wɔn nkwa, na wɔanwuwu wɔ ɔko ano nso.
3 Bonke ababusi bakho babaleke kanyekanye, babotshwe ngabatshoki, bonke abatholakala kuwe, babotshiwe kanyekanye, babaleke besuka khatshana.
Mo akannifo nyinaa abɔ mu aguan; wɔamfa tadua ankyekye wɔn. Mo a wɔkyeree mo nyinaa wɔfaa mo nneduafo mo a muguan wɔ bere a na atamfo no wɔ akyirikyiri.
4 Ngenxa yalokhu ngathi: Susani amehlo kimi; kangikhale kabuhlungu; ungaphangisi ukungiduduza ngenxa yokuchitheka kwendodakazi yabantu bakithi.
Enti mekae se, “Mumfi me so na mintwa adwo. Monnkyekye me werɛ wɔ me nkurɔfo sɛe ho.”
5 Ngoba kulusuku lokusanganiseka, lolokunyathelela phansi, lolokuphithizela kweNkosi uJehova wamabandla esigodini sombono, lokudilizela phansi umduli, lolokuhlaba umkhosi kuze kube sentabeni.
Awurade, Asafo Awurade wɔ da bi ma huuyɛ, ntiatiaso ne ehu wɔ Anisoadehu Bon no mu, da a wɔde bubu afasu na wɔde su kyerɛ mmepɔw.
6 IElamu yathatha-ke isikhwama semitshoko, kanye lenqola, abantu, abagadi bamabhiza; leKiri yembula isihlangu.
Elam fa bɛmma no ka ne nteaseɛnamkafo ne apɔnkɔ ho; Kir ama kyɛm no so.
7 Kuzakuthi-ke izigodi zakho ezikhethekileyo zigcwala izinqola, labagadi bamabhiza bazihlele lokuzihlela ngasesangweni.
Nteaseɛnam ayɛ mo bon fɛfɛ no ma, na wɔde apɔnkɔsotefo agyinagyina kuropɔn apon no ano.
8 Njalo yena uzakwembula isimbombozo sakoJuda; langalolosuku wena uzakhangela izikhali zendlu yehlathi.
Wɔayi Yuda ho bammɔ no. Na da no wode wʼani too akode a ɛwɔ Kwae mu Ahemfi no so;
9 Njalo lizabona imikenke yomuzi kaDavida, ukuthi minengi, liqoqe amanzi echibini elingaphansi.
wuhuu sɛ Dawid Kuropɔn no, akwan bebree deda ne bammɔ mu woboaa nsu ano wɔ Ase Abura mu.
10 Lizabala izindlu zeJerusalema, lidilize izindlu ukuze liqinise umduli.
Wokan adan a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no na wudwiriw afi de boaa ɔfasu no ahoɔden.
11 Lizakwenza ichibi phakathi kwemiduli yomibili lisenzela amanzi omgodi omdala. Kodwa kaliyikukhangela kowakwenzayo, kalimnanzanga owakubumbayo kudala.
Woyɛɛ nsukorae wɔ afasu abien no ntam maa nsu a ɛwɔ Abura Dedaw mu no, nanso woanhwehwɛ Onipa ko a ɔyɛe, na woammu Onipa a ɔhyehyɛe dedaada no.
12 Langalolosuku iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izamemezela ukulila, lokukhala, lokuphucwa kwamakhanda, lokugqokwa kwesaka.
Awurade, Asafo Awurade, frɛɛ wo saa da no sɛ su na twa adwo, sɛ yi wo tinwi na fura atweaatam.
13 Kodwa khangela, injabulo lokuthaba, ukubulawa kwenkomo, lokuhlatshwa kwezimvu, ukudliwa kwenyama, lokunathwa kwewayini; lathi: Asidleni sinathe, ngoba kusasa sizakufa.
Nanso hwɛ, anigye ne ahosɛpɛw wɔ hɔ; wokunkum anantwi ne nguan; wɔwe nam na wɔbow nsa! Wɔka se, “Momma yennidi na yɛnnom, efisɛ, ɔkyena yebewu!”
14 Kodwa iNkosi yamabandla yembula endlebeni zami isithi: Isibili lesisono kaliyikusenzelwa inhlawulo yokuthula lize life, kutsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla.
Awurade, Asafo Awurade ayi me asotiw se, “Wɔremfa saa bɔne yi nkyɛ wo da kosi wo wuda,” sɛnea Awurade, Asafo Awurade se ni.
15 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova wamabandla: Hamba uye kulo umphathi, kuShebina, ophezu kwendlu, uthi:
Sɛɛ na Awurade, Asafo Awurade se, “Kɔ, kɔka kyerɛ saa ɔsomfo yi, Sebna a, ɔhwɛ ahemfi no so se,
16 Ulani lapha, njalo ulobani lapha, ukuthi uzigebhele ingcwaba lapha, njengozigebhela ingcwaba lakhe phezulu, ozigubhela indawo yokuhlala edwaleni?
Dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha na hena na ɔmaa wo kwan sɛ bɔ wo da wɔ ha, worebɔ wo da wɔ baabi a ɛkorɔn na woretwa wo homebea wɔ ɔbotan mu?
17 Khangela, iNkosi izakujikijela khatshana ngokujika kwendoda; izakugoqela ngokukugoqela,
“Hwɛ yiye, na Awurade rebeso wo mu den atow wo akyene, wo ɔhoɔdenfo.
18 ikuthandele lokukuthandela njengebhola eligoqelwayo; njengebhola izakuphosela elizweni elibanzi; lalapho uzafela, lalapho izinqola zodumo lwakho zizakuba lihlazo, olwendlu yenkosi yakho!
Ɔbɛbobɔw wo, ama woayɛ kurukuruwa, na watow wo akyene ɔman kɛse bi so hɔ na wubewu na wo teaseɛnam fɛfɛ no aka hɔ, wo a woyɛ ahohora ma wo wura fi!
19 Njalo ngizakusunduza usuke esikhundleni sakho, ikuwise ekumeni kwakho.
Megye wʼadwuma afi wo nsa mu na wɔayi wo afi wo dibea so.
20 Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku ngibize inceku yami uEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya;
“Saa da no, mɛfrɛ me somfo Eliakim a ɔyɛ Hilkia babarima.
21 ngizamgqokisa isigqoko sakho, ngimqinise ngebhanti lakho, nginikeze umbuso wakho esandleni sakhe; njalo yena uzakuba nguyise kubahlali beJerusalema lendlini yakoJuda.
Mede wʼatade yuu bɛhyɛ no na mede wʼabɔso abebare nʼasen mu na mede wo tumi ahyɛ ne nsa. Ɔbɛyɛ agya ama wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem ne Yuda fi.
22 Ngizabeka-ke isihluthulelo sendlu kaDavida ehlombe lakhe; yena uzavula kungavali muntu, avale kungavuli muntu.
Mede Dawid fi safe bɛma no; nea obebue no obiara rentumi nto mu; na nea ɔbɛto mu nso a obiara rentumi mmue.
23 Ngizambethela njengesikhonkwane endaweni eqinileyo; njalo uzakuba yisihlalo sobukhosi esilodumo endlini kayise.
Mɛbɔ ne so sɛ pɛe ama watim, ɔbɛyɛ anuonyam agua ama nʼagya fi.
24 Njalo bazaphanyeka phezu kwakhe udumo lonke lwendlu kayise, inzalo lembewu, zonke izitsha ezincinyane, kusukela ezitsheni zenkezo kusiya kuzo zonke izitsha zeziphiso.
Nʼabusua anuonyam nyinaa begyina ne so: nʼasefo ne ne nenanom, ne nkuku ne nkaka, fi nsanka, mprɛte so kosi nhina nyinaa so.
25 Ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, isikhonkwane esabethelwa endaweni eqinileyo sizasuswa, siganyulwe siwe; lomthwalo obuphezu kwaso uzaqunywa; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
“Saa da no,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni, “pɛe a wɔabɔ so ama atim no, betu ahwe fam na nʼadesoa no nso asɛe, Awurade, akasa!”
