< UMikha 3 >
1 Ngasengisithi: Ake lizwe, lina zinhloko zakoJakobe, lani zinhloko zendlu yakoIsrayeli. Kakuyisikho okwenu yini ukwazi isahlulelo?
Afei mekaa sɛ, “Montie, mo Yakob ntuanofoɔ, mo sodifoɔ a mowɔ Israel efie. Ɛsɛ sɛ mohunu deɛ ɛyɛ atɛntenenee,
2 Elizonda okuhle, lithande okubi, elebula isikhumba lisisusa kubo, lenyama yabo emathanjeni abo;
Mo a mokyiri deɛ ɛyɛ na modɔ bɔne moworɔ me nkurɔfoɔ wedeɛ na motete ɛnam no firi wɔn nnompe ho;
3 futhi elidla inyama yabantu bami, lihlinze isikhumba sabo lisisusa kubo; lephule amathambo abo, liwaqobaqobe njengawembiza, lanjengenyama phakathi kwebhodo.
mowe me nkurɔfoɔ nam, mowae wɔn wedeɛ, bubu wɔn nnompe mu nketenkete; motwitwa wɔn sɛ ɛnam a mode regu kwansɛn mu.”
4 Khona bezakhala eNkosini, kodwa kayiyikubaphendula; njalo izabafihlela ubuso bayo ngalesosikhathi, njengalokho benze izenzo zabo zaba zimbi.
Afei wɔbɛsu afrɛ Awurade, nanso ɔrennye wɔn so. Saa ɛberɛ no ɔde nʼanim bɛsie wɔn, bɔne a wɔayɛ enti.
5 Itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana labaprofethi abaduhisa abantu bami, abaluma ngamazinyo abo, abamemeza: Ukuthula; kodwa ongabeki lutho emlonyeni wabo, balungisa impi bemelene laye.
Deɛ Awurade seɛ nie: “Adiyifoɔ a wɔdaadaa me nkurɔfoɔ no deɛ, obi ma wɔn biribi di a wɔpae mu ka asomdwoeɛ nsɛm, na sɛ wɔamma wɔn biribi anni a, adiyifoɔ no siesie wɔn ho sɛ wɔbɛtu wɔn so sa.
6 Ngakho kuzakuba yibusuku kini, lingabi lombono; kube mnyama kini, lingabi lokuvumisa; lelanga lizabatshonela abaprofethi, losuku lube mnyama phezu kwabo.
Enti adeɛ bɛsa mo a morennya anisoadehunu, esum bɛduru mo a morennya ahintasɛm biara. Owia bɛtɔ ama adiyifoɔ no, na adekyeɛ bɛdane esum ama wɔn.
7 Khona ababoni bezayangeka, labavumisi babe lenhloni. Yebo bonke bazambomboza izindebe zangaphezulu; ngoba kungelampendulo kaNkulunkulu.
Adepɛmuhunufoɔ ani bɛwu na wɔbɛgu nsamanfrɛfoɔ anim ase. Wɔn nyinaa bɛkatakata wɔn anim, ɛfiri sɛ mmuaeɛ biara mfiri Onyankopɔn hɔ mma.”
8 Kodwa isibili mina ngigcwele amandla ngomoya weNkosi, lesahlulelo, lobuqhawe, ukumemezela kuJakobe isiphambeko sakhe, lakuIsrayeli isono sakhe.
Nanso me deɛ tumi ahyɛ me ma, Awurade Honhom ahyɛ me ma tenenee ne ahoɔden a mede bɛpae mu aka Yakob amumuyɛ ne Israel bɔne.
9 Ake lizwe lokhu, lina zinhloko zendlu kaJakobe, lani babusi bendlu kaIsrayeli, elenyanya isahlulelo, lihlanekele konke ukuqonda.
Montie, mo Yakob efie ntuanofoɔ, mo a moyɛ Israel sodifoɔ, a mokyiri atɛntenenee na mokyea deɛ ɛtene 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.
Nʼadikanfoɔ no gye adanmudeɛ ansa na wabu atɛn, nʼasɔfoɔ gye sika ansa na wɔakyerɛkyerɛ, nʼadiyifoɔ de nkɔmhyɛ ayɛ sikapɛ. Nanso wɔdan Awurade, na wɔka sɛ, “Awurade nni yɛn ntam anaa? Ɔhaw biara remma yɛn so.”
12 Ngakho ngenxa yenu iZiyoni izalinywa njengensimu, leJerusalema ibe zinqumbi, lentaba yendlu njengezindawo eziphakemeyo zehlathi.
Na mo enti, wɔbɛfuntum Sion te sɛ afuo, Yerusalem bɛyɛ mmubuiɛ, na asɔredan no kokoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ nkɔfie a nkyɛkyerɛ afu wɔ so.
