UJeremiya 30
1 Ilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini lisithi:
Asɛm a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ nie:
2 Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, isithi: Zibhalele encwadini wonke amazwi engiwakhulume kuwe.
“Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, seɛ: ‘Twerɛ nsɛm a maka akyerɛ wo nyinaa gu nwoma mu.
3 Ngoba khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, ukuthi ngizabuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabantu bami uIsrayeli loJuda, itsho iNkosi, ngibabuyisele elizweni engalinika oyise, njalo bazakudla ilifa lalo.
Nna bi reba,’ sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ, ‘a mede me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ ne Yudafoɔ bɛfiri nnommum mu asane aba na mede wɔn aba asase a mede me maa wɔn agyanom sɛ wɔmfa ntena so,’ Awurade na ɔseɛ.”
4 Lala ngamazwi iNkosi eyawakhuluma mayelana loIsrayeli lamayelana loJuda.
Yei ne nsɛm a Awurade ka faa Israel ne Yuda ho:
5 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Sizwile ilizwi lokuthuthumela; kulokwesaba, hatshi ukuthula.
“Deɛ Awurade seɛ nie: “‘Akomatuo nteateam na mete, mete ehu, na ɛnyɛ asomdwoeɛ.
6 Ake libuze, libone uba indoda ingabeletha yini? Kungani ngibona ngulowo lalowo owesilisa isandla sakhe siphezu kokhalo lwakhe njengowesifazana obelethayo, lobuso bonke sebuphenduke baba mhlotshana?
Mommisa na monhunu: Ɔbarima bɛtumi awo mma anaa? Afei, adɛn enti na mehunu ɔbarima ɔhoɔdenfoɔ biara sɛ ne nsa gu ne yafunu so te sɛ ɔbaa a ɔwɔ awokoɔ mu, na anim biara ayɛ bosaa saa?
7 Maye! ngoba lukhulu lolosuku, okokuthi kalukho olunjengalo; kuyisikhathi sokuhlupheka kukaJakobe, kodwa uzasindiswa kukho.
Sɛdeɛ da no bɛyɛ hu afa! Ɛda biara renyɛ sɛ ɛno. Ɛbɛyɛ amanehunu berɛ ama Yakob, nanso, wɔbɛyi no afiri mu.
8 Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, ngizakwephula ijogwe lakhe entanyeni yakho, ngiqamule izibopho zakho; labezizwe kabasayikumsebenzisa.
“‘Saa ɛda no,’ Asafo Awurade na ɔseɛ, ‘Mɛbubu kɔnnua no afiri wɔn kɔn mu, na matete wɔn nkyehoma no mu; ananafoɔ remfa wɔn nyɛ nkoa bio.
9 Kodwa bazasebenzela uJehova, uNkulunkulu wabo, loDavida inkosi yabo engizabavusela yena.
Na mmom wɔbɛsom Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn ne Dawid wɔn ɔhene, a mɛpagya no ama wɔn.
10 Ngakho wena ungesabi, nceku yami Jakobe, itsho iNkosi; futhi ungatshaywa luvalo, Israyeli; ngoba khangela, ngizakusindisa ukhatshana, lenzalo yakho elizweni lokuthunjwa kwayo; njalo uJakobe uzaphenduka, athule, onwabe, njalo kakho ozamenza esabe.
“‘Enti nsuro, Ao Yakob, me ɔsomfoɔ; mma wʼaba mu mmu, Ao Israel,’ deɛ Awurade seɛ nie. ‘Nokorɛm mɛgye wo afiri akyirikyiri, ne wʼasefoɔ afiri wɔn nnommumfa asase so. Yakob bɛsane anya asomdwoeɛ ne banbɔ na obiara renhunahuna no bio.
11 Ngoba mina ngilawe, itsho iNkosi, ukukusindisa; ngoba ngizakwenza ukuphela kuzo zonke izizwe engikuhlakazele khona, kodwa kangiyikwenza ukuphela kuwe; kodwa ngizakulaya ngokufaneleyo, kangiyikukuyekela ungajeziswanga ngokupheleleyo.
Me ne wo wɔ hɔ na mɛgye wo nkwa,’ Awurade na ɔseɛ. ‘Ɛwom sɛ mesɛe amanaman no nyinaa pasaa, wɔn a mebɔ mo hwete wɔ wɔn mu no, nanso merensɛe mo korakora. Mɛtenetene mo nanso mɛyɛ no tenenee ɛkwan so; meremma mo mfa mo ho nni koraa a merentwe mo aso.’
12 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Ukwaphuka kwakho kakwelapheki, isilonda sakho sibi.
“Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “‘Wo apirakuro ayɛ koankorɔ, na ɛnni asaeɛ.
13 Kakho owahlulela udaba lwakho, ukuthi abophe isilonda sakho; kawulamithi epholisayo.
Obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛka bi ama wo, wo kuro no rennya aduro, na worennya ayaresa.
14 Zonke izithandwa zakho zikukhohliwe; kazikudingi; ngoba ngikutshayile ngokutshaya kwesitha, ngokulaywa kololunya, ngenxa yobunengi besiphambeko sakho, izono zakho zandile.
Wʼapamfoɔ nyinaa werɛ afiri wo; wo ho biribiara mfa wɔn ho. Mabɔ wo sɛdeɛ wo ɔtamfoɔ bɛyɛ na matwe wʼaso sɛdeɛ otirimuɔdenfoɔ bɛtwe, ɛfiri sɛ wʼafɔdie so dodo na wʼamumuyɛ nso dɔɔso.
15 Ukhalelani ngokwephuka kwakho? Usizi lwakho kalwelapheki ngenxa yobunengi besiphambeko sakho; ngoba izono zakho zandile, ngizenzile lezizinto kuwe.
Adɛn enti na wosu denden wɔ wʼapirakuro ho, wo yeadie a ano nni aduro ho? Wʼafɔdie kɛseɛ ne wʼamumuyɛ bebrebe enti na mede saa nneɛma yi ayɛ woɔ.
16 Ngakho bonke abakudlayo bazadliwa; lazo zonke izitha zakho, zonke zizakuya ekuthunjweni; labakuphangayo bazakuba yimpango, labo bonke abakwemukayo ngizabanikela ekwemukweni.
“‘Nanso wɔbɛsɛe wɔn a wɔsɛe mo; mo atamfoɔ nyinaa bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu. Wɔn a wɔfom mo no, wɔbɛfom wɔn. Wɔn a wɔto hyɛɛ mo so no, mɛto ahyɛ wɔn so.
17 Ngoba ngizakwenyusela ukuphila kuwe, ngikwelaphe emanxebeni akho, itsho iNkosi; ngoba bakubize ngokuthi oXotshiweyo, besithi: YiZiyoni, kakulamuntu oyidingayo.
Nanso mɛma wo ahoɔden bio na masa wo apirakuro,’ Awurade na ɔseɛ, ‘ɛfiri sɛ wɔfrɛ wo deɛ wɔapam noɔ, Sion a wo ho nhia obiara.’
18 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, ngizabuyisa ukuthunjwa kwamathente kaJakobe, ngihawukele amakhaya abo; njalo umuzi uzakwakhiwa phezu kwenqumbi yawo, lesigodlo sizahlala njengomkhuba waso.
“Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “‘Mɛsane de Yakob ntomadan mu ahonyadeɛ aba na manya ayamhyehyeɛ ama nʼatenaeɛ ahodoɔ no; wɔbɛkyekyere kuropɔn no bio wɔ ne mmubuiɛ so, na ahemfie no bɛsi deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɛsie.
19 Njalo kuzaphuma kubo ukubonga, lelizwi labathokozayo; njalo ngizabandisa, kabayikuba balutshwana; ngibadumise, kabayikweyiswa.
Wɔn mu na aseda nnwom bɛfiri aba ne ahosɛpɛ nnyegyeɛ. Mɛma wɔadɔɔso, na wɔn dodoɔ no so rente; mɛhyɛ wɔn animuonyam, na wɔremmu wɔn abomfiaa.
20 Labantwana babo bazakuba njengendulo, lenhlangano yabo izamiswa phambi kwami; njalo ngizajezisa bonke ababacindezelayo.
Wɔn mma bɛdi yie sɛ kane no, mɛma wɔn asafo atim wɔ mʼanim; wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so nyinaa mɛtwe wɔn aso.
21 Lesikhulu sabo sizavela kubo, lombusi wabo uzaphuma evela phakathi kwabo; njalo ngizamsondeza, asondele kimi; ngoba ngubani lowo ongenza inhliziyo yakhe isibambiso sokusondela kimi? itsho iNkosi.
Wɔn adikanfoɔ bɛyɛ wɔn mu baako; na wɔn sodifoɔ bɛfiri wɔn mu. Mɛka no abata me ho na wabɛn me, na hwan na ɔno ankasa bɛtumi de ne ho ama sɛ ɔbɛbɛn me?’ Awurade na ɔseɛ.
22 Njalo lizakuba ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu.
‘Enti mobɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mayɛ mo Onyankopɔn.’”
23 Khangelani isivunguzane seNkosi, ukuvutha kuphumile, isivunguzane esikhukhulayo; sizakwehla ngamandla phezu kwekhanda lababi.
Hwɛ, Awurade ahum bɛtu abufuhyeɛ mu, ntwahoframa bɛdi kyinhyia wɔ amumuyɛfoɔ mpampam.
24 Ukuvutha kolaka lweNkosi kakuyikudeda, ize ikwenze, ize iqinise injongo zenhliziyo yayo; ekucineni kwezinsuku lizanakana ngalokhu.
Awurade abufuo rennwo kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛwie nʼakoma mu nhyehyɛeɛ nyinaa. Nna a ɛreba no mu no mobɛte yei ase.
