< UZefaniya 2 >
1 Zibuthaniseni, lizibuthanise, lina sizwe esingaloyisekiyo,
Mommoaboa mo ho ano, mommoaboa mo ho ano, mo, animguaseman,
2 isimiso singakazali, lalolosuku lwedlule njengamakhoba, intukuthelo yolaka lweNkosi ingakalehleli, usuku lolaka lweNkosi lungakalehleli.
ansa na bere a wɔahyɛ no adu, na da no resen te sɛ ntɛtɛ, ansa na Awurade abufuwhyew no aba mo so, ansa na Awurade abufuw da no aba mo so.
3 Dingani iNkosi, lina lonke abamnene bomhlaba, elenze isahlulelo sayo; dingani ukulunga, lidinge ubumnene; mhlawumbe lingafihlwa ngosuku lolaka lweNkosi.
Monhwehwɛ Awurade, ahobrɛasefo a mowɔ asase so, mo a moyɛ nʼahyɛde. Monhwehwɛ trenee, monhwehwɛ ahobrɛase; ebia ɔbɛkora mo so Awurade abufuw da no.
4 Ngoba iGaza izadelwa, leAshikeloni ibe lunxiwa; bazaxotsha iAshidodi emini enkulu, leEkhironi isitshunwe.
Wobegyaw Gasa na wɔagyaw Askelon sɛ amamfo. Owigyinae na wɔbɛma Asdod ada mpa mu na wɔatutu Ekron ase.
5 Maye kwabakhileyo belizwe lolwandle, isizwe samaKerethi! Ilizwi leNkosi limelene lani. Wena Khanani, lizwe lamaFilisti, ngizakuchitha, kuze kungabi lomhlali.
Munnue, mo a mote mpoano, mo Keretifo; Awurade asɛm tia mo. Kanaan, Filistifo asase. Mɛtɔre mo ase, na obiara renka.
6 Lelizwe lolwandle lizakuba ngamadlelo alemigodi yamanzi yabelusi, lezibaya zezimvu.
Asase a ɛda mpoano, faako a Keretifo te bɛyɛ atenae ama nguanhwɛfo ne wɔn nguannan.
7 Njalo ilizwe lizakuba ngelensali yendlu kaJuda; bazakudla kulo; kusihlwa bazalala ezindlini zeAshikeloni; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo izabahambela, iphendule ukuthunjwa kwabo.
Saa asase no bɛyɛ Yudafi nkae no de; ɛhɔ na wobenya mmoa adidibea. Anwummere, wɔbɛdeda wɔ Askelon afi mu. Na Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn bɛhwɛ wɔn, na ɔde wɔn ahonyade nyinaa bɛsan ama wɔn.
8 Ngiyizwile inhlamba kaMowabi, lokuthuka kwamadodana kaAmoni, abahlambaze ngakho abantu bami, bezikhulisa bemelene lomngcele wabo.
“Mate Moab nsopa ne Amonfo atweetwee; wɔn a wɔsopaa me nkurɔfo na wohunahunaa wɔn wɔ wɔn asase ho.
9 Ngakho kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, isibili uMowabi uzakuba njengeSodoma, labantwana bakaAmoni njengeGomora, indawo yezimbabazane, lemigodi yetshwayi, lencithakalo kuze kube phakade. Insali yabantu bami izabaphanga, labaseleyo babantu bami badle ilifa labo.
Enti sɛ mete ase yi,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni, “Ampa ara Moab bɛyɛ sɛ Sodom, na Amonfo ayɛ sɛ Gomora, faako a nwura ne nkyene amoa wɔ, bɛyɛ asase a ɛda mpan afebɔɔ. Me man nkae bɛfow wɔn afa; me manfo a wobenya wɔn ti adidi mu no bɛfa wɔn asase.”
10 Lokhu bazakuba lakho endaweni yokuziphakamisa kwabo, ngoba bathuka, bazikhulisa bemelene labantu beNkosi yamabandla.
Wɔn ahantan so akatua a wobenya ni, sɛ wɔyeyaw na wodi Asafo Awurade nkurɔfo ho fɛw nti.
11 INkosi izakwesabeka kubo, ngoba izacakisa bonke onkulunkulu bomhlaba; njalo bazakhothama kuyo, ngulowo lalowo esendaweni yakhe, zonke izihlenge zezizwe.
Awurade ho suro bɛba wɔn so bere a ɔbɛsɛe asase no so anyame nyinaa. Mpoano aman nyinaa bɛsɔre no, wɔ wɔn ankasa wɔn asase so.
12 Lani maEthiyophiya, lizakuba ngababuleweyo ngenkemba yami.
“Mo Etiopiafo nso, mʼafoa ano na wobekunkum mo.”
13 Njalo izakwelula isandla sayo imelene lenyakatho, ichithe iAsiriya, ibeke iNineve ibe lunxiwa, yome njengenkangala.
Awurade bɛteɛ ne nsa wɔ atifi aman so na wasɛe Asiria, na wama Ninewe ada mpan koraa na so awo wosee sɛ nwea pradada so.
14 Njalo imihlambi izalala phansi phakathi kwayo, zonke izinyamazana zezizwe; lalo iwunkwe kanye lenhloni kulale ezidukwini zayo; ilizwi lizahlabela ewindini, incithakalo ibe sembundwini; ngoba ezakwembula umsebenzi womsedari.
Nguankuw ne anantwi bɛdeda hɔ, mmoadoma nyinaa. Sare so patu ne abonsamnoma bɛtena nʼadum no so. Wɔn su begyigye afa mfɛnsere mu, nnwiriwii besisiw apon ano akwan, mpuran a wɔde sida ayɛ no ho bɛdeda hɔ.
15 Lo ngumuzi ojabulayo, obuhlezi ngokuvikeleka, owawusithi enhliziyweni yawo: Yimi, njalo kakho omunye ngaphandle kwami. Yeka ukuba kwawo yincithakalo, indawo yokulala yezinyamazana! Wonke owedlula kiwo uyancifa, anyikinye isandla sakhe.
Eyi ne kuropɔn a edi ahurusi na ɛte asomdwoe mu. Ɔhoahoaa ne ho se, “Me ne no, obiara nte sɛ me.” Hwɛ sɛnea atetew apansam, na ayɛ nkekammoa atenae! Obiara a otwa mu wɔ hɔ no serew no, him ne nsa fɛwdi so.
