UJeremiya 34
1 Ilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lapho uNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, lebutho lakhe lonke, lemibuso yonke yomhlaba yokubusa kwesandla sakhe, lazo zonke izizwe, babesilwa bemelene leJerusalema bemelene layo yonke imizi yayo, lisithi:
Bere a Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne nʼakofo ne nʼahenni nyinaa ne nnipa a wɔwɔ ahemman a odi so no mu reko tia Yerusalem ne nkurow a atwa ne ho ahyia no, saa asɛm yi fi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ se,
2 Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Hamba ukhulume kuZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda uthi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, nginikela lumuzi esandleni senkosi yeBhabhiloni, ukuthi iwutshise ngomlilo.
“Nea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se ni: Kɔ Yudahene Sedekia nkyɛn na kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Mede kuropɔn yi rebɛhyɛ Babiloniahene nsa, na ɔbɛhyew no dwerɛbee.
3 Lawe kawuyikuphunyuka esandleni sayo, kodwa uzabanjwa isibili, unikelwe esandleni sayo; lamehlo akho azabona amehlo enkosi yeBhabhiloni, lomlomo wayo uzakhuluma lomlomo wakho; njalo uzakuya eBhabhiloni.
Worenguan mfi ne nsam na nokware, wɔbɛkyere wo de wo akɔma no. Wode wʼani behu Babiloniahene na ɔne wo bɛkasa anim ne anim. Na wobɛkɔ Babilonia.
4 Kodwa zwana ilizwi leNkosi, Zedekhiya, nkosi yakoJuda: Itsho njalo iNkosi ngawe: Kawuyikufa ngenkemba.
“‘Nanso tie Awurade bɔhyɛ, Yudahene Sedekia. Sɛɛ na Awurade ka fa wo ho: Worennwu wɔ afoa ano;
5 Uzakufa ngokuthula, lanjengokubaselwa kwaboyihlo, amakhosi endulo, ayephambi kwakho, ngokunjalo bazakubasela, bakulilele, besithi: Maye inkosi! Ngoba mina ngilikhulumile lelolizwi, itsho iNkosi.
na wubewu asomdwoe mu. Sɛnea nnipa bɔɔ ayiyɛ gyatannaa de hyɛɛ wʼagyanom anuonyam, ahemfo dedaw a wodii wʼanim no, saa ara na wɔbɛbɔ gyatannaa ahyɛ wo anuonyam na wɔadi awerɛhow se, “Ao, owura!” Mʼankasa na mehyɛ saa bɔ yi, Awurade na ose.’”
6 UJeremiya umprofethi wasewakhuluma wonke lamazwi kuZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda eJerusalema,
Na odiyifo Yeremia kaa eyinom nyinaa kyerɛɛ Yudahene Sedekia wɔ Yerusalem,
7 lapho ibutho lenkosi yeBhabhiloni lisilwa limelene leJerusalema limelene layo yonke imizi yakoJuda eyayisele, limelene leLakishi limelene leAzeka; ngoba yiyo imizi ebiyelweyo eyayisisele phakathi kwemizi yakoJuda.
bere a Babiloniahene asraafo reko atia Yerusalem ne Yuda nkuropɔn, Lakis ne Aseka a na wogu so reko wɔ hɔ. Eyinom ne nkuropɔn a na aka wɔ Yuda a wɔwɔ bammɔ.
8 Ilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, emva kokuthi inkosi uZedekhiya esenzile isivumelwano labo bonke abantu ababeseJerusalema ukumemezela inkululeko kubo,
Asɛm no fi Awurade hɔ baa Yeremia nkyɛn wɔ bere a ɔhene Sedekia ne Yerusalemfo ayɛ apam sɛ wɔbɛma nkoa ahofadi no akyi.
9 ukuthi ngulowo lalowo ayekele isigqili sakhe sihambe sikhululekile, langulowo lalowo isigqilikazi sakhe, umHebheru kumbe umHebherukazi, ukuze kungabi khona umuntu owenza umJuda engumfowabo abe yisigqili.
Ɛsɛ sɛ obiara gyaa ne nkoa ne mfenaa Hebrifo; na obiara nni ho kwan sɛ ɔde ne yɔnko Yudani yɛ akoa.
10 Kwasekulalela zonke iziphathamandla labo bonke abantu ababengene lesosivumelwano sokuthi ngulowo lalowo ayekele isigqili sakhe langulowo lalowo isigqilikazi sakhe sihambe sikhululekile, bangaphindi bazenze zibe yizigqili; basebelalela, baziyekela zahamba.
Enti adwumayɛfo no nyinaa ne nnipa a wɔyɛɛ saa apam yi penee so sɛ wobegyaa wɔn nkoa ne mfenaa, na wɔremfa wɔn nyɛ nkoa bio. Wɔpenee so, na wogyaa wɔn.
11 Kodwa emva kwalokho baphenduka, bazibuyisa izigqili lezigqilikazi ababeziyekele zihambe zikhululekile, bazehlisela phansi zaba yizigqili lezigqilikazi.
Nanso akyiri no, wɔsesaa wɔn adwene na wɔsan faa nnipa a wogyaa wɔn no de wɔn yɛɛ nkoa bio.
12 Ngakho ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lisithi:
Na Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn se,
13 Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Mina ngenza isivumelwano laboyihlo mhla ngibakhupha elizweni leGibhithe, endlini yobugqili, ngisithi:
“Nea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni: Me ne mo agyanom yɛɛ apam bere a miyii wɔn fii Misraim, nkoasom asase so no. Mekae se,
14 Ekupheleni kweminyaka eyisikhombisa lizayekela ahambe, ngulowo lalowo umfowabo umHebheru owayethengiswe kuwe, esekusebenzele iminyaka eyisithupha, umyekele ahambe ekhululekile esuka kuwe. Kodwa oyihlo kabangilalelanga, kababekanga indlebe yabo.
‘Mfe ason biara no, ɛsɛ sɛ mo mu biara gyaa ne yɔnko Hebrini a watɔn ne ho ama no. Sɛ wasom mfe asia a gyaa no na ɔmfa ne ho nni.’ Nanso mo agyanom antie na wɔamfa mʼasɛm.
15 Lina seliphendukile lamuhla, lenza okulungileyo emehlweni ami, limemezela inkululeko, ngulowo lalowo kumakhelwane wakhe, lenza isivumelwano phambi kwami endlini ebizwa ngebizo lami.
Ɛnkyɛe koraa, nanso munuu mo ho na moyɛɛ nea eye wɔ mʼani so: Mo mu biara paee ahofadi maa ne manmma. Mpo moyɛɛ apam wɔ mʼanim, wɔ ofi a me Din da so no mu.
16 Kodwa liphendukile, langcolisa ibizo lami, libuyisa, ngulowo lalowo isigqili sakhe langulowo lalowo isigqilikazi sakhe, ebeliziyekele zahamba zikhululekile njengokufisa kwazo, lazehlisela phansi, zaba yizigqili lezigqilikazi zenu.
Nanso mprempren, moadan mo ho na moahura me din ho; mo mu biara asan akɔfa nkoa ne mfenaa a mugyaa wɔn sɛ wɔnkɔ baabiara a wɔpɛ no. Moahyɛ wɔn ama wɔayɛ mo nkoa bio.
17 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi: Lina kalingilalelanga, ukumemezela inkululeko, kube ngulowo lalowo kumfowabo langulowo lalowo kumakhelwane wakhe; khangelani, ngizamemezela kini, itsho iNkosi, inkululeko enkembeni, kumatshayabhuqe wesifo, lendlaleni; ngilinikele libe yisesabiso kuyo yonke imibuso yomhlaba.
“Afei nea Awurade se ni: Muntiee me na mompaee ahofadi mmaa mo ankasa nkurɔfo. Enti afei mepae ‘ahofadi’ ma mo, Awurade na ose. ‘Ahofadi’ a ebegyaa mo ama afoa, ɔyaredɔm ne ɔkɔm. Mɛma moayɛ akyiwade ama asase so ahenni ahorow nyinaa.
18 Nginikele amadoda aseqileyo isivumelwano sami, angaqinisanga amazwi esivumelwano asenza phambi kwami, lapho adabula ithole kabili, adlula phakathi kweziqa zalo;
Nnipa a wɔabu mʼapam so, na wɔanni nhyehyɛe a ɛwɔ apam a wɔayɛ wɔ mʼanim no so no, mɛyɛ wɔn sɛ nantwi ba a wɔpae ne mu abien na wɔnantew nʼafaafa no ntam no.
19 iziphathamandla zakoJuda, leziphathamandla zeJerusalema, abathenwa, labapristi, labo bonke abantu belizwe, abadabula phakathi kweziqa zethole.
Yuda ne Yerusalem ntuanofo, asennii adwumayɛfo, asɔfo ne asase no so nnipa no nyinaa a monantew faa nantwi ba no afaafa no ntam no,
20 Yebo, ngizabanikela esandleni sezitha zabo lesandleni salabo abadinga impilo yabo; lezidumbu zabo zizakuba yikudla kwenyoni zamazulu lenyamazana zomhlaba.
mede wɔn bɛma wɔn atamfo a wɔrehwehwɛ wɔn nkwa no. Wɔn afunu bɛyɛ aduan ama wim nnomaa ne asase so mmoa.
21 LoZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda leziphathamandla zakhe ngizabanikela esandleni sezitha zabo, lesandleni salabo abadinga impilo yabo, lesandleni sebutho lenkosi yeBhabhiloni, abenyuke basuka kini.
“Mede Yudahene Sedekia ne nʼadwumayɛfo bɛhyɛ wɔn atamfo a wɔrehwehwɛ wɔn nkwa, Babiloniahene asraafo a wɔatwe wɔn ho no nsa.
22 Khangelani, ngizalaya, itsho iNkosi, ngibabuyise kulumuzi; njalo bazakulwa bemelene lawo, bawuthumbe, bawutshise ngomlilo; lemizi yakoJuda ngizayenza ibe lunxiwa olungelamhlali.
Merebɛhyɛ, Awurade asɛm ni, na mɛsan de wɔn aba kuropɔn yi mu. Wɔbɛko atia no, wɔbɛfa, na wɔahyew no dwerɛbee. Na mɛma Yuda nkurow ada mpan a obiara rentumi ntena hɔ.”
