UJeremiya 42
1 Zasezisondela zonke induna zamabutho, loJohanani indodana kaKareya, loJezaniya indodana kaHoshaya, labo bonke abantu, kusukela komncinyane kuze kube komkhulu,
Afei asraafo mpanyimfo no nyinaa a Karea babarima Yohanan ne Hosaia babarima Yesania ka ho, ne nnipa no nyinaa, efi akumaa so kosi ɔkɛse so kɔɔ
2 bathi kuJeremiya umprofethi: Ake kuthi ukuncenga kwethu kuwe phambi kwakho, usikhulekele eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho, umele le insali yonke, ngoba sisele sibalutshwana kwabanengi, njengalokho amehlo akho esibona;
odiyifo Yeremia nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛsrɛ wo, tie yɛn adesrɛ yi na bɔ Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn mpae ma wɔn a wɔaka yi nyinaa. Sɛnea wuhu no, kan no na yɛdɔɔso nanso afei yɛaka kakraa bi.
3 ukuze iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, isazise indlela esizahamba ngayo, lento esizayenza.
Bɔ mpae sɛnea Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn bɛkyerɛ yɛn faako a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ ne nea ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ.”
4 UJeremiya umprofethi wasesithi kibo: Sengizwile; khangelani, ngizakhuleka eNkosini uNkulunkulu wenu njengokwamazwi enu; kuzakuthi-ke, lonke ilizwi iNkosi ezaliphendula ngizalitshela lona, kangiyikuligodlela lizwi.
Yeremia buaa wɔn se, “Mate mo asɛm no, na ɔkwan biara so mɛbɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn mpae sɛnea moasrɛ no; mɛka nea Awurade bɛka biara akyerɛ mo na meremfa hwee nsie mo.”
5 Bona basebesithi kuJeremiya: INkosi kayibe ngumfakazi oqinisileyo lothembekileyo phakathi kwethu, uba singenzi ngokunjalo njengalo lonke ilizwi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekuthuma kithi ngalo.
Na afei, wɔka kyerɛɛ Yeremia se, “Sɛ yɛanyɛ nea Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn soma wo se ka kyerɛ yɛn no a, ma ɔnyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafo ntia yɛn.
6 Loba kukuhle loba kukubi, sizalalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, esikuthuma kuyo, ukuze kusilungele lapho sililalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu.
Sɛ yɛpɛ o, sɛ yɛmpɛ o, yɛbɛyɛ osetie ama Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn a yɛresoma wo wɔ ne nkyɛn no, sɛnea ebesi yɛn yiye, na yebedi Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn asɛm so.”
7 Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwensuku ezilitshumi, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuJeremiya.
Nna du akyi no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia hɔ.
8 Wasebiza uJohanani indodana kaKareya, lazo zonke induna zamabutho ezazilaye, labantu bonke kusukela komncinyane kusiya komkhulu;
Enti ɔfrɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan ne asraafo mpanyimfo a wɔka ne ho ne nnipa no nyinaa; efi akumaa so kosi ɔkɛse so.
9 wathi kibo: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, elingithume kiyo ukuthi ngenze ukuncenga kwenu kuwe phambi kwayo:
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a mosomaa me sɛ memfa mo adesrɛ nkɔto nʼanim no se:
10 Uba lihlala lokuhlala kulelilizwe, ngizalakha ngingalidilizi, ngilihlanyele, ngingalisiphuni; ngoba ngiyazisola ngokubi engikwenzileyo kini.
‘Sɛ motena asase yi so a, mesiesie mo na merensɛe mo, medua mo na merentu mo ase, efisɛ me werɛ ahow wɔ amanehunu a mama aba mo so no ho.
11 Lingayesabi inkosi yeBhabhiloni eliyesabayo, lingayesabi, itsho iNkosi; ngoba mina ngilani ukuze ngilisindise ngilophule esandleni sayo.
Munnsuro Babiloniahene a mprempren musuro no no. Munnsuro no, Awurade na ose, efisɛ mene mo wɔ hɔ, megye mo, na mayi mo afi ne tumi ase.
12 Ngilinike izihawu, ukuze ibe lomusa kini, ilibuyisele elizweni lakini.
Mehu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔno nso ahu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔde mo asan aba mo asase so.’
13 Kodwa uba lisithi: Kasiyikuhlala kulelilizwe; ukuthi lingalaleli ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu;
“Nanso sɛ moka se, ‘Yɛrentena saa asase yi so,’ na ne saa nti moanyɛ osetie amma Awurade mo Nyankopɔn,
14 lisithi: Hatshi; kodwa sizangena elizweni leGibhithe, lapho esingayikubona impi khona, singayikuzwa ukukhala kophondo, singalambelanga isinkwa, sihlale khona;
na sɛ moka se, ‘Dabi, yɛbɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, faako a yɛrenhu ɔko, na yɛrente akobɛn nnyigyei na aduankɔm renne yɛn a,’
15 khathesi-ke, ngakho zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, nsali yakoJuda: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Uba lina libeka ubuso benu ngokupheleleyo ukuya eGibhithe, lingene ukuyahlala njengabezizwe khona,
ɛno de tie Awurade asɛm, mo Yuda nkae. Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se, ‘Sɛ moawe ahinam sɛ mobɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, na sɛ munya kɔtena hɔ a,
16 kuzakuthi-ke inkemba eliyesabayo izalifica khona elizweni leGibhithe, lendlala elinqineka ngayo izanamathela emva kwenu khona eGibhithe, lifele khona.
ɛno de afoa a musuro no bɛto mo wɔ hɔ na ɔkɔm a, mo koma tu wɔ ho no bedi mo akyi akɔ Misraim na hɔ na mubewuwu.
17 Bazakuba njalo bonke abantu ababeka ubuso babo ukuya eGibhithe, ukuze bahlale njengabezizwe khona; bazakufa ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo; njalo kabayikuba lensali kumbe ophunyuke phambi kokubi engizabehlisela khona.
Nokware wɔn a wɔasi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛkɔ Misraim akɔtena hɔ no bewuwu wɔ afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano, na wɔn mu baako po renka anaa ɔrenguan mfi amanehunu a mede bɛba wɔn so no mu.’
18 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Njengokuthululwa kolaka lwami lentukuthelo yami phezu kwabahlali beJerusalema, ngokunjalo intukuthelo yami izathululelwa phezu kwenu, nxa lingena eGibhithe. Njalo lizakuba yisithuko lokwesabekayo lesiqalekiso lehlazo, lingaphindi liyibone lindawo.
Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se, ‘Sɛnea mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew hwie guu nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem so no, saa ara na sɛ, mokɔ Misraim a, mʼabufuwhyew behwie agu mo so. Mobɛyɛ nnome, ahodwiriwde, afɔbu ne ahohora; morenhu saa beae yi bio.’
19 INkosi ithe ngani, nsali yakoJuda: Lingangeni eGibhithe. Yazini isibili ukuthi lamuhla ngifakazile ngimelene lani.
“Yuda nkae, Awurade aka akyerɛ mo se, ‘Monnkɔ Misraim.’ Mommma mo werɛ mmfi, nnɛ merebɔ mo kɔkɔ
20 Ngoba liyikhohlisile imiphefumulo yenu; ngoba lina lingithume eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wenu, lisithi: Sikhulekele eNkosini uNkulunkulu wethu; lanjengakho konke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ekutshoyo, ngokunjalo sitshele, sikwenze.
sɛ moyɛɛ mfomso a ɛyɛ hu yiye, bere a mosomaa me kɔɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn hɔ, na mokae se, ‘Bɔ Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn mpae ma yɛn, na ka nea ɔka biara kyerɛ yɛn na yɛbɛyɛ,’ no.
21 Sengilitshelile lamuhla, kodwa kalililalelanga ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu, laloba yiyiphi into engithume yona kini.
Nnɛ, maka akyerɛ mo, nanso monyɛɛ osetie mmaa Awurade mo Nyankopɔn ara wɔ biribiara a ɔhyɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ mo no ho.
22 Khathesi-ke yazini isibili ukuthi lizakufa ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo, endaweni eliloyisa ukuyahlala khona njengabezizwe.
Enti afei mommma mo werɛ mfi sɛ, mubewuwu wɔ afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano wɔ faako a mopɛ sɛ mokɔtena hɔ no.”
