U-Isaya 31
1 Maye kulabo abehlela usizo eGibhithe, abeyama emabhizeni, bethemba izinqola ngoba zizinengi, labagadi bamabhiza ngoba belamandla kakhulu, kodwa bengakhangeli koNgcwele kaIsrayeli, njalo bengadingi iNkosi!
Wonnue, wɔn a wɔkɔ Misraim kɔhwehwɛ mmoa, wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to apɔnkɔ so, wɔn a wogye wɔn nteaseɛnam dodow ne wɔn apɔnkɔsotefo ahoɔden mmoroso no di, na wɔnhwɛ Israel Kronkronni no, anaasɛ wɔmpɛ mmoa mfi Awurade hɔ.
2 Kanti layo ihlakaniphile, izaletha ububi, njalo kayiyikuwabuyisa amazwi ayo; kodwa izavukela indlu yabenzi bobubi, njalo imelene losizo lwabenzi beziphambeko.
Nanso Awurade yɛ onyansafo a obetumi de ɔhaw aba; ɔnsesa nʼano. Ɔbɛsɔre atia amumɔyɛfo fi, ne wɔn a wɔboa nnebɔneyɛfo.
3 Ngoba amaGibhithe angabantu, kabasuNkulunkulu, lamabhiza awo ayinyama, kawayisimoya. Lapho iNkosi izakwelula isandla sayo, osizayo uzakhubeka losizwayo uzakuwa phansi, njalo bonke baphele kanyekanye.
Na Misraimfo yi yɛ nnipa kɛkɛ, wɔnyɛ Onyankopɔn. Wɔn apɔnkɔ yɛ ɔhonam na wɔnyɛ honhom. Sɛ Awurade teɛ ne nsa a, ɔboafo bɛwatiri na nea wɔboa no no bɛhwe ase; wɔn baanu bɛbɔ mu asɛe.
4 Ngoba iNkosi itsho njalo kimi: Njengesilwane lebhongo lesilwane kubhongela phezu kwempango yakho, lapho ixuku labelusi libizelwe ukumelana laso, kasiyikwesaba ilizwi labo, njalo kasiyikuzithoba ngenxa yomsindo wabo; ngokunjalo iNkosi yamabandla izakwehla ukulwela intaba yeZiyoni loqaqa lwayo.
Sɛɛ na Awurade ka kyerɛ me: “Sɛnea gyata woro so, sɛnea gyata kokroo woro so gu ne hanam so no a mpo sɛ wɔfrɛ nguanhwɛfo dɔm kɔ no so a, wɔn nteɛteɛmu mmɔ no hu na wɔn huuyɛ nso nhaw no no, saa ara na Asafo Awurade besian abɛko wɔ Sion Bepɔw ne ne sorɔnsorɔmmea so.
5 Njengenyoni eziphaphayo, ngokunjalo iNkosi yamabandla izavikela iJerusalema; ivikela, izayophula; isedlula, iyikhulule.
Sɛnea nnomaa tu gyina faako wɔ wim no saa ara na Asafo Awurade bɛbɔ Yerusalem ho ban; ɔbɛbɔ ne ho ban na wagye no, obegyaa no na wagye no asi hɔ.”
6 Phendukelani kuyo okuyo abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahlubuke ngokujulileyo.
Monsan nkɔ nea moayɛ dɔm atia no no nkyɛn, Israelfo.
7 Ngoba ngalolosuku bazalahla, wonke umuntu izithombe zakhe zesiliva lezithombe zakhe zegolide, ozandla zenu zilenzele zona ukuba yisono.
Da no mo mu biara bɛpo dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ ahoni a mode mo nsa a ɛho agu fi ayɛ no.
8 ISiriya izakuwa-ke ngenkemba engeyisiyo yomuntu olamandla, lenkemba engeyisiyo yomuntukazana izayiqeda; kodwa izabalekela inkemba, lamajaha ayo abe yizibhalwa.
“Asiria bɛhwe ase wɔ afoa a ɛnyɛ onipa de ano; afoa a ɛnyɛ onipa de bɛsɛe wɔn. Wobeguan afi afoa no ano na wɔbɛma wɔn mmerante ayɛ ɔhyɛ adwuma.
9 Izakwedlulela edwaleni layo ngokwesaba, leziphathamandla zayo zesabe uphawu, itsho iNkosi, omlilo wayo useZiyoni, lesithando sayo siseJerusalema.
Wɔn abandennen bebubu, ehu nti; wohu akofo frankaa a, wɔn asraafo mpanyimfo bɛbɔ huboa,” sɛɛ na Awurade se, nea ne gya wɔ Sion, na ne fononoo si Yerusalem no.
