< UMikha 3 >
1 Ngasengisithi: Ake lizwe, lina zinhloko zakoJakobe, lani zinhloko zendlu yakoIsrayeli. Kakuyisikho okwenu yini ukwazi isahlulelo?
Afei mekae se, “Muntie, mo Yakob akannifo, mo a mudi Israelfi so. Ɛsɛ sɛ muhu nea ɛyɛ atɛntrenee,
2 Elizonda okuhle, lithande okubi, elebula isikhumba lisisusa kubo, lenyama yabo emathanjeni abo;
Mo a mukyi nea eye na modɔ bɔne moworɔw me nkurɔfo were na motetew nam no fi wɔn nnompe ho;
3 futhi elidla inyama yabantu bami, lihlinze isikhumba sabo lisisusa kubo; lephule amathambo abo, liwaqobaqobe njengawembiza, lanjengenyama phakathi kwebhodo.
mowe me nkurɔfo nam, mowae wɔn were, bubu wɔn nnompe mu nketenkete; mutwitwa wɔn sɛ nam a mode regu kutu mu.”
4 Khona bezakhala eNkosini, kodwa kayiyikubaphendula; njalo izabafihlela ubuso bayo ngalesosikhathi, njengalokho benze izenzo zabo zaba zimbi.
Afei wobesu afrɛ Awurade, nanso ɔrennye wɔn so. Saa bere no ɔde nʼanim besie wɔn, bɔne a wɔayɛ nti.
5 Itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana labaprofethi abaduhisa abantu bami, abaluma ngamazinyo abo, abamemeza: Ukuthula; kodwa ongabeki lutho emlonyeni wabo, balungisa impi bemelene laye.
Nea Awurade se ni: “Adiyifo a wɔdaadaa me nkurɔfo no de, obi ma wɔn biribi di a wɔpae mu ka asomdwoe nsɛm, na sɛ wɔamma wɔn biribi anni a, adiyifo no siesie wɔn ho sɛ wobetu wɔn so sa.
6 Ngakho kuzakuba yibusuku kini, lingabi lombono; kube mnyama kini, lingabi lokuvumisa; lelanga lizabatshonela abaprofethi, losuku lube mnyama phezu kwabo.
Enti ade bɛsa mo a morennya adaeso, sum beduru mo a morennya ahintasɛm biara. Owia bɛtɔ ama adiyifo no, na adekyee bɛdan sum ama wɔn.
7 Khona ababoni bezayangeka, labavumisi babe lenhloni. Yebo bonke bazambomboza izindebe zangaphezulu; ngoba kungelampendulo kaNkulunkulu.
Adehufo ani bewu na wobegu asamanfrɛfo anim ase. Wɔn nyinaa bɛkatakata wɔn anim, efisɛ mmuae biara mfi Onyankopɔn hɔ mma.”
8 Kodwa isibili mina ngigcwele amandla ngomoya weNkosi, lesahlulelo, lobuqhawe, ukumemezela kuJakobe isiphambeko sakhe, lakuIsrayeli isono sakhe.
Nanso me de, tumi ahyɛ me ma, Awurade Honhom ahyɛ me ma trenee ne ahoɔden a mede bɛpae mu aka Yakob amumɔyɛ ne Israel bɔne.
9 Ake lizwe lokhu, lina zinhloko zendlu kaJakobe, lani babusi bendlu kaIsrayeli, elenyanya isahlulelo, lihlanekele konke ukuqonda.
Muntie, mo Yakobfi akannifo, mo a mudi Israel so, a mukyi atɛntrenee na mokyea nea ɛteɛ nyinaa;
10 Elakha iZiyoni ngecala legazi, leJerusalema ngobubi.
Mo a mode mogyahwiegu kyekyeree Sion ne awurukasɛm kyekyeree Yerusalem.
11 Inhloko zayo zahlulelela isipho, labapristi bayo bafundisela inkokhelo, labaprofethi bayo bavumisela imali; kanti beyame eNkosini, besithi: INkosi kayikho phakathi kwethu yini? Ububi kabuyikusehlela.
Nʼakannifo no gye adanmude ansa na wobu atɛn, nʼasɔfo gye sika ansa na wɔakyerɛkyerɛ, nʼadiyifo de nkɔmhyɛ ayɛ sikapɛ. Nanso wɔdan Awurade, na wɔka se, “Awurade nni yɛn ntam ana? Ɔhaw biara remma yɛn so.”
12 Ngakho ngenxa yenu iZiyoni izalinywa njengensimu, leJerusalema ibe zinqumbi, lentaba yendlu njengezindawo eziphakemeyo zehlathi.
Na mo nti, wobefuntum Sion te sɛ afuw, Yerusalem bɛyɛ nnwiriwii siw, na asɔredan no pampa bɛyɛ nkɔmoa so nkyɛkyerɛ.
