< U-Isaya 58 >
1 Memeza ngomphimbo, ungayekeli, uphakamise ilizwi lakho njengophondo, utshele abantu bami isiphambeko sabo, lendlu kaJakobe izono zabo.
“Monteɛ mu dennen, monnnyae. Momma mo nne so sɛ torobɛnto. Mompae mu nka me nkurɔfo atuatew nkyerɛ wɔn na monka Yakobfi nso nnebɔne nkyerɛ no.
2 Kanti bayangidinga mina usuku ngosuku, bethokoza ukwazi indlela zami; njengesizwe esenza ukulunga, esingadelanga isimiso sikaNkulunkulu waso, babuza kimi izimiso zokulunga, bathokoza ekusondeleni kuNkulunkulu.
Da biara da wɔhwehwɛ me; ayɛ sɛ wɔpere sɛ wobehu mʼakwan, te sɛ wɔyɛ ɔman a wɔyɛ nea ɛteɛ na wɔmpoo ne Nyankopɔn ahyɛde. Wobisa me hɔ gyinae a ɛteɛ na ayɛ sɛ wɔpɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛn wɔn.
3 Besithi: Kungani sizile ukudla, wena-ke ungaboni? Kungani sihluphe umphefumulo wethu, wena-ke ungakwazi? Khangelani, ngosuku lokuzila kwenu ukudla, lithola intokozo, licindezele zonke izisebenzi zenu.
Wɔka se, ‘Adɛn nti na yɛadi mmuada na woanhu yi? Adɛn nti na yɛabrɛ yɛn ho ase, na woanhwɛ yi?’ “Nanso mo mmuada da no, moyɛ nea mopɛ na musisi mo adwumayɛfo nyinaa.
4 Khangelani, lizila ukudla lisenzela ingxabano lokuphikisana, lokutshaya ngenqindi yenkohlakalo; lingazili ukudla njengalamuhla, ukwenza ilizwi lenu lizwakale phezulu.
Ntɔkwaw ne akasakasa na mode wie mo mmuadadi, ne akuturuku a mode bobɔ mo ho. Morentumi nni mmuada sɛnea moyɛ no nnɛ yi na moahwɛ anim sɛ wɔbɛte mo nne wɔ ɔsoro.
5 Kunjalo yini ukuzila ukudla engikukhethileyo? Lusuku lokuthi umuntu ahluphe umphefumulo wakhe yini? Ukuthi akhothamise ikhanda lakhe njengomhlanga, endlale phansi kwakhe isaka lomlotha? Lokhu ungakubiza yini ngokuthi yikuzila ukudla, losuku olwemukelekayo eNkosini?
Eyi ne mmuadadi a mepɛ ana? Da koro pɛ a onipa de brɛ ne ho ase no ana? Ɛne sɛ obi si ne ti ase te sɛ mfea na ɔtena atweaatam so ne nsõ mu nko ara ana? Eyi na mofrɛ no mmuadadi, da a ɛsɔ Awurade ani yi ni ana?
6 Kayisikho lokhu yini ukuzila ukudla engikukhethileyo: Ukuthukulula izibopho zobubi, ukukhulula imichilo yejogwe, ukuyekela abacindezelweyo bahambe bekhululekile, lokuthi lephule lonke ijogwe?
“Saa mmuadadi yi na mepɛ: sɛ mubeyiyi ntɛnkyew nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn na moasan konnua ahama, sɛ mubegyaa wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so na moabubu konnua biara.
7 Kayisikho yini ukwabela olambileyo isinkwa sakho, lokungenisa abayanga abayimihambuma endlini, lapho ubona onqunu umembese, lokuthi ungacatsheli inyama yakho?
So ɛnsɛ sɛ mo ne wɔn a ɔkɔm de wɔn kyɛ mo aduan na moma ohiani a ɔnenam no baabi tena; na muhu nea ɔda adagyaw a mumfura no ntama na munnyi mo ani mfi mo ankasa mo nkurɔfo ne mo abusuafo so ana?
8 Khona ukukhanya kwakho kuzaqhamuka njengokusa, lokusila kwakho kuhlume masinyane; lokulunga kwakho kuhambe phambi kwakho; inkazimulo yeNkosi ibe ngumvikeli wakho ngasemuva.
Ɛno na mo hann bepue te sɛ ahemadakye, na mo ayaresa aba ntɛm so; afei mo trenee bedi mo anim, na Awurade anuonyam bɛbɔ mo kyidɔm.
9 Khona uzabiza, iNkosi iphendule, uzakhala, ibisisithi: Khangela ngilapha. Uba ususa phakathi kwakho ijogwe, ukukhomba ngomunwe, lokukhuluma okubi,
Afei mobɛfrɛ, na Awurade begye mo so; mobɛteɛ mu ahwehwɛ mmoa, na ɔbɛka se: Mini. “Sɛ muyi nhyɛso konnua, nsa a moteɛ wɔ nnipa so ne ntwatoso fi hɔ,
10 ukhuphele olambileyo umphefumulo wakho, usuthise umphefumulo ohluphekileyo, khona ukukhanya kwakho kuzaphuma emnyameni, lobumnyama bakho bube njengemini enkulu.
na sɛ mohaw mo ho ma wɔn a ɔkɔm de wɔn na moma wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so no nea ehia wɔn a, ɛno de, mo akanea bɛhyerɛn wɔ sum mu, na mo anadwo bɛyɛ sɛ owigyinae.
11 Njalo iNkosi izakukhokhela njalonjalo, isuthise umphefumulo wakho engwaduleni, iqinise amathambo akho, ube njengesivande esithelelwayo, lanjengomthombo wamanzi, omanzi awo angapheliyo.
Awurade bɛkyerɛ mo kwan bere biara; ɔbɛma mo nea ehia mo wɔ asase wosee so na ɔbɛhyɛ mo nipadua den. Mobɛyɛ sɛ turo a wogugu so nsu yiye, sɛ asuwa a mu nsu nyow da.
12 Labakho bazakwakha amanxiwa amadala; uzavusa izisekelo zezizukulwana ngezizukulwana; uzabizwa ngokuthi: UMvalisikhala, uMbuyiseli wemikhondo yokuhlala.
Mo nkurɔfo bɛsan asi teteete nnwiriwii no, na wɔato fapem a akyɛ no; wɔbɛfrɛ mo Nea Osiesie Afasu a Abubu no, Nea Ogye Atenae Si Hɔ.
13 Uba uphendula unyawo lwakho lusuka kusabatha, ungenzi intokozo yakho ngosuku lwami olungcwele; ulibize isabatha ngokuthi yintokozo, olungcwele lweNkosi, oluhloniphekayo; njalo uluhlonipha, ungenzi indlela zakho, ungatholi intokozo yakho, loba ukhulume ilizwi lakho,
“Sɛ mohwɛ mo anammɔntu so yiye Homeda na moanyɛ nea mopɛ wɔ me da kronkron no, sɛ mofrɛ Homeda no anigye da na mudi Awurade da kronkron no ni na moamfa mo ara mo akwan so na moanyɛ nea mopɛ anaa moanka nsɛnhunu a,
14 khona uzazithokozisa eNkosini, ngizakugadisa ezindaweni eziphakemeyo zomhlaba, ngizakwenza udle ilifa likaJakobe uyihlo; ngoba umlomo weNkosi ukhulumile.
ɛno de mubenya anigye wɔ Awurade mu na mɛma mo anantew asase no sorɔnsorɔmmea so na moato pon wɔ mo agya Yakob agyapade so.” Awurade na waka.
