U-Isaya 5
1 Ake ngihlabelele othandiweyo wami ingoma yomthandwa wami ngesivini sakhe. Othandiweyo wami ulesivini oqaqeni oluvundileyo.
Mɛto dwom ama me dɔfo dwom a ɛfa ne bobeturo ho: Na me dɔfo wɔ bobe turo bi wɔ asasebere bi a ɛda bepɔw ani.
2 Wasibiyela, wakhupha amatshe kiso, wasihlanyela ngevini elikhethiweyo, wakha umphotshongo phakathi kwaso, wagubha lesikhamelo sewayini kiso; walindela ukuthi sizathela izithelo zevini, kodwa sathela izithelo zevini ezimunyu.
Ofuntum asase no, yiyii mu abo, na oduaa bobe a ɛyɛ papa wɔ so. Osii ɔwɛn aban wɔ mfimfini na otuu nsakyiamoa nso. Afei ɔhwɛɛ anim sɛ obetwa bobe aba pa, nanso ɛsow aba bɔne.
3 Ngakho-ke, bahlali beJerusalema, lani madoda akoJuda, ake lahlulele phakathi kwami lesivini sami.
“Afei mo a motete Yerusalem ne Yuda mmarima, mummu me ne me bobeturo ntam atɛn.
4 Ngabe kwenziwani okunye esivinini sami engingakwenzanga kuso? Ngalindelelani ukuthi sizathela izithelo zevini, kodwa sathela izithelo zevini ezimunyu?
Dɛn bio na anka ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ ma me bobeturo boro nea mayɛ yi so? Bere a merehwɛ anim sɛ minya bobe a eye no adɛn nti na ɛsow aba bɔne?
5 Ngakho-ke, ake ngilitshele engizakwenza esivinini sami: Ngizasusa uthango lwaso ukuze sibe lidlelo, ngidilize umduli waso ukuze sibe ngesokugxotshwa.
Afei mɛka nea merebɛyɛ me bobeturo no akyerɛ wo: Meyi ho ban no afi hɔ, na wɔbɛsɛe no; mebubu ho ɔfasu, na wobetiatia so.
6 Ngizasenza sibe liganga, singathenwa, singahlakulwa, kodwa kumile ameva lokhula oluhlabayo. Njalo ngizalaya amayezi ukuthi anganisi izulu phezu kwaso.
Mɛma ayɛ asase a ɛda mpan a worenyiyi mu na wɔnyɛ so adwuma, ohwirem ne nsɔe benyin wɔ so. Mɛhyɛ omununkum na wantɔ osu angu so.”
7 Ngoba isivini seNkosi yamabandla yindlu kaIsrayeli, labantu bakoJuda bayisithombo sentokozo zayo. Njalo yayilindele isahlulelo, kodwa khangela, ukuchithwa kwegazi; ukulunga, kodwa khangela, ukukhala.
Asafo Awurade bobeturo no yɛ Israelfi, na Yuda mmarima yɛ turo a nʼani gye ho. Ɔpɛɛ atɛntrenee nanso ohuu mogyahwiegu; ɔpɛɛ trenee nanso ɔtee mmɔborɔsu.
8 Maye kulabo abahlanganisa indlu lendlu, abasondeza insimu lensimu, kuze kusweleke indawo, lina-ke lihlale lodwa phakathi kwelizwe!
Nnome nka mo a mode ofi ka ofi ho na mugyigye mfuw bobɔ so kosi sɛ asase no bɛsa na ɛka mo nko ara wɔ asase no so.
9 Endlebeni zami iNkosi yamabandla yathi: Isibili izindlu ezinengi zizakuba ngamanxiwa, ezinkulu lezinhle zingabi lamhlali.
Asafo Awurade apae mu aka ama mate: “Nokwarem, afi akɛse no bɛda mpan, na aban afɛɛfɛ no, obiara rentena mu.
10 Ngoba indima ezilitshumi zesivini zizathela ibhathi elilodwa, lehomeri lenhlanyelo lithele i-efa.
Bobeturo kɛse pa ara no nsa kakraa bi na ebefi mu. Aba lita aduonu baako a wodua no wobenya so lita aduonu abien pɛ.”
11 Maye kwabavuka ekuseni kakhulu, bexotshana lokunathwayo okulamandla, balibale kuze kuhlwe, lize iwayini libalumathise!
Wonnue, wɔn a wɔsɔre anɔpahema kɔhwehwɛ wɔn nsa akyi kwan wɔn a wosii pɛ anadwo kosi sɛ nsa bɛbow wɔn.
12 Njalo ichacho lomhubhe, isigubhu lomhlanga, lewayini kusemadilini abo, kodwa kabananzi isenzo seNkosi, bengaboni umsebenzi wezandla zayo.
Wɔbɔ sankuten ne bɛnta wɔ wɔn aponto ase, akasae, ne atɛntɛbɛn ne nsa, nanso wotwiri nea Awurade ayɛ, na wommu ne nsa ano adwuma.
13 Ngakho abantu bami bazakuya ekuthunjweni ngenxa yokungabi lolwazi, lamadoda abo odumo alendlala, lenengi labo lizakoma ngumhawu.
Ɛno nti, me nkurɔfo bɛkɔ nnommum mu, efisɛ wonni ntease; ɔkɔm bekum wɔn mu atitiriw na osukɔm betware wɔn mu bebree.
14 Ngakho ingcwaba lizazinabulula, livule umlomo walo ube banzi ngokungelasilinganiso, kuze kwehle udumo lwabo lobunengi babo lenxokozelo yabo lothokozayo phakathi kwabo. (Sheol h7585)
Enti Owu bae nʼabogye mu na obue nʼanom bayaa; na mu na atitiriw ne dɔm no bɛkɔ wɔne wɔn a wɔsaw na wogye wɔn ani no. (Sheol h7585)
15 Lomuntukazana uzakwehliselwa phansi, lomuntu ophakemeyo athotshiswe, lamehlo abazikhukhumezayo athotshiswe.
Enti wɔbɛbrɛ onipa ase na wama adesamma abotow. Wɔbɛbrɛ ɔhantanni ase,
16 Kodwa iNkosi yamabandla izaphakanyiswa ngesahlulelo, loNkulunkulu ongcwele uzangcweliswa ngokulunga.
nanso Asafo Awurade atɛntrenee bɛma no so, na Ɔkronkron Nyankopɔn de ne trenee bɛda ne ho adi sɛ Ɔkronkronni.
17 Lamawundlu azakudla ngokwendlela yawo, labemzini badle amanxiwa abakhulupheleyo.
Afei nguan bɛkɔ adidi te sɛnea wɔwɔ wɔn adidibea; nguantenmma bedidi wɔ asikafo amamfo so.
18 Maye kwabadonsa isiphambeko ngentambo zeze, lesono njengamagoda enqola!
Munnue, mo a mode nnaadaa nhoma twetwe bɔne, na mode nteaseɛnam ntampehama twetwe amumɔyɛ.
19 Labo abathi: Kaphangise, aphangisise umsebenzi wakhe, ukuze siwubone; lecebo loNgcwele kaIsrayeli kalisondele lize, ukuze silazi.
Munnue, mo a moka se, “Onyankopɔn nyɛ ntɛm, ɔnyɛ nʼadwuma ntɛm sɛnea yebehu. Ma ɛmmɛn, Israel Ɔkronkronni no nhyehyɛe no mmra, sɛnea yebehu.”
20 Maye kwabathi kokubi kuhle, lakokuhle kubi, ababeka umnyama ube yikukhanya, lokukhanya kube ngumnyama, ababeka okubabayo kube mnandi, lokumnandi kube ngokubabayo!
Munnue, mo a mofrɛ bɔne sɛ papa na papa nso sɛ bɔne, mo a mode sum si hann anan mu na hann si sum anan mu, mo a mofrɛ nweenwen se dɛɛdɛ ne dɛɛdɛ se nweenwen.
21 Maye kwabahlakaniphileyo emehlweni abo, labaqedisisayo phambi kobuso babo!
Munnue, mo a mubu mo ho anyansafo, mo ankasa ani so ne anitewfo mo ankasa ani so.
22 Maye kwabangamaqhawe okunatha iwayini, lamadoda alamandla okuhlanganisa okunathwayo okulamandla;
Munnue mo a wɔfrɛ mo akatakyi wɔ nsanom mu ne ahoɔdenfo wɔ nsa afrafra mu.
23 abalungisisa okhohlakeleyo ngenxa yomvuzo, basuse ukulunga kwabalungileyo kubo!
Mo a mugye adanmude, na mugyaa nea odi fɔ na mubu nea odi bem no fɔ.
24 Ngakho njengolimi lomlilo lusidla isidindi sotshani, lamakhoba edilika ngelangabi, ngokunjalo impande yabo izakuba njengokubola, lempoko yabo iphephuke njengothuli; ngoba bewalile umlayo weNkosi yamabandla, balidelela ilizwi loNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
Enti sɛnea ogyaframa hyew nwuraguanee na sare a awo yera wɔ ogyaframa mu no, saa ara na mo ntin bɛporɔw, na mo nhwiren nso atu akɔ sɛ mfutuma; efisɛ moapo Asafo Awurade mmara na moatwiri Israel Kronkronni no asɛm.
25 Ngenxa yalokho ulaka lweNkosi lubavuthele abantu bayo, yelula isandla sayo imelene labo, yabatshaya, izintaba zaze zazamazama, lezidumbu zabo zaba njengengcekeza phakathi kwezitalada. Ngenxa yakho konke lokhu ulaka lwayo kaluphenduki, kodwa isandla sayo silokhu seluliwe.
Enti Awurade abufuw aba ne nkurɔfo so, wama ne nsa so, na ɔde rebɔ wɔn ahwe fam. Mmepɔw no wosow, na afunu ayɛ sɛ mmɔnten so nwura. Nanso eyi nyinaa akyi, ne bo nnwoo ɛ, na ne nsa da so wɔ soro.
26 Njalo izasiphakamisela isizwe isiboniso ikhatshana, isitshayele ikhwelo isekucineni komhlaba; khangela-ke, sizakuza masinyane ngejubane.
Ɔma frankaa so ma akyirikyiri aman, ɔhyɛn abɛn de frɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ asase ano. Wɔn na wɔreba no, afrɛ so ne ntɛm so!
27 Kakho ozadinwa, njalo kakho ozakhubeka phakathi kwaso, kakho ozawozela, njalo kakho ozalala, njalo kakho ozakhululelwa ibhanti lokhalo lwakhe, njalo kakho ozaqanyukelwa ngumchilo wamanyathela akhe.
Wɔn mu biara mmmrɛ na onhintiw, obiara ntɔ nko na ɔnna; abɔso biara mu nnwow wɔ asen mu na mpaboa hama biara nso rentew.
28 Omitshoko yakhe ibukhali, lomadandili akhe wonke agotshiwe; amasondo amabhiza akhe azabalwa njengelitshe elilukhuni, lamavili akhe njengesivunguzane.
Wɔn agyan ano yɛ nnam, na wɔn tadua nyinaa ayɛ krado; wɔn apɔnkɔ tɔte te sɛ ɔtwɛrebo, wɔn nteaseɛnam nkyimii te sɛ mfɛtɛ.
29 Ukubhonga kwakhe kuzakuba njengokwesilwane, njalo uzabhonga njengamabhongo esilwane, abhavume abambe impango, ayilethe ekuvikelekeni, njalo kungekho umemuki.
Wɔn mmobɔmu te sɛ gyata de, na wɔbobɔ mu sɛ gyatamma; wɔbobɔ mu kyere wɔn hanam na wɔde no kɔ a ogyefo biara nni hɔ.
30 Bazakubhavumela ngalolosuku njengokubhavuma kolwandle. Uba umuntu ekhangela emhlabeni, khangela-ke, umnyama, usizi, lokukhanya kwenziwe kwaba mnyama ngamayezi aso.
Da no wɔbɛbobɔ mu agu no so sɛnea po woro so no. Na sɛ obi hwɛ asase no a, obehu sum kabii ne ahohiahia; omununkum bɛma hann aduru sum.
