< Yexesqeel 20 >

1 Oo sannaddii toddobaad, bisheedii shanaad, maalinteedii tobnaad ayaa odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil qaarkood u yimaadeen inay Rabbiga wax weyddiistaan, oo hortayday fadhiisteen.
Ngomnyaka wesikhombisa, ngenyanga yesihlanu ngosuku lwetshumi, abanye babadala bako-Israyeli bafika bezebuza uThixo, bahlala phansi phambi kwami.
2 Haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
3 Wiilka Aadamow, odayaasha reer binu Israa'iil la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Ma waxaad u timaadeen inaad wax i weyddiisataan? Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye inaanan waxaad i weyddiisataan maqlayn.
“Ndodana yomuntu, khuluma labadala bako-Israyeli uthi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lilande ukuzangibuza na? Ngeqiniso elinjengoba ngikhona, kangiyikulivumela ukuthi lingibuze, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’
4 Wiilka Aadamow, ma doonaysaa inaad iyaga xukuntid? Ma doonaysaa inaad iyaga xukuntid? Bal iyaga waxyaalihii karaahiyada ahaa ee awowayaashood ogeysii,
Uzabahlulela na? Uzabahlulela na, ndodana yomuntu? Ngakho batshele ngezenzo zaboyise ezinengayo
5 oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waagii aan reer binu Israa'iil doortay, oo aan gacantayda kor ugu qaaday oo aan u dhaartay farcanka reer Yacquub, oo aan iyaga dalkii Masar dhexdiisa isku baray, oo aan ugu dhaartay anigoo ku leh, Anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah,
uthi kubo: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngosuku engakhetha ngalo u-Israyeli, ngafunga kuyo inzalo yendlu kaJakhobe isandla siphakanyisiwe njalo ngiziveza kuyo iGibhithe. Isandla siphakanyisiwe ngathi kubo, “Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.”
6 waagaas gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo aan iyaga u dhaartay inaan dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyo oo aan soo geliyo dal aan iyaga u soo ilaaleeyey oo caano iyo malab la barwaaqaysan, kaasoo ah ammaantii dalalka oo dhan,
Ngalolosuku ngafunga kubo ukuthi ngizabakhupha eGibhithe ngibase elizweni engabadingela lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, elihle kakhulu kulamazwe wonke.
7 oo waxaan iyaga ku idhi, Ninkiin kastaaba waxyaalaha karaahiyada ah ee indhihiisa ha iska xooro, oo sanamyada Masar ha isku nijaasaynina. Aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
Njalo ngathi kubo, “Lowo lalowo wenu kalahle izifanekiso ezenyanyekayo elibeke amehlo enu kuzo, njalo lingazingcolisi ngezithombe zaseGibhithe. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.”
8 Laakiinse way igu caasiyoobeen, oo inay i maqlaan ayay diideen. Ninkoodna waxyaalihii karaahiyada ahaa ee indhihiisa iskama xoorin, oo sanamyadii Masarna kama ay tegin. Markaasaan idhi, Cadhadaydaan ku kor shubi doonaa, si aan iyaga dalka Masar dhexdiisa xanaaqayga ugu dhammaystiro.
Kodwa bangihlamukela kabaze bangilalela; kabazilahlanga izithombe zabo ezenyanyekayo ababebeke amehlo abo kuzo, loba balahle izithixo zabo zaseGibhithe. Ngakho ngathi ngizathululela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo ngiqede lokuthukuthela kwami ngimelane labo eGibhithe.
9 Laakiinse magacayga daraaddiis ayaan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumihii ay dhex joogeen hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan iyaga isbaray, markaan dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey.
Kodwa ngenxa yebizo lami, ngenza okwakuzalivikela ekungcolisweni phambi kwezizwe ababehlala phakathi kwazo engiziveze emehlweni azo kwabako-Israyeli ngokubakhupha eGibhithe.
10 Sidaas daraaddeed ayaan iyaga dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey oo cidlada keenay.
Ngakho ngabakhupha eGibhithe ngabasa enkangala.
11 Oo waxaan iyaga siiyey qaynuunnadaydii, xukummadaydiina waan tusay, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo.
Ngabanika izimiso zami ngabazisa lemithetho yami, ngoba umuntu oyilalelayo uzaphila ngayo.
12 Oo weliba waxaan siiyey sabtiyadayda inay ahaadaan calaamad aniga iyo iyaga noo dhexaysa, si ay u ogaadaan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga iyaga quduus ka dhiga.
Njalo ngabanika lamaSabatha ami njengesibonakaliso phakathi kwami labo, ukuze bakwazi ukuthi mina Thixo ngabenza baba ngcwele.
13 Laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil way igu caasiyoobeen intii ay cidlada dhex joogeen. Qaynuunnadaydii kuma ay socon, oo xukummadaydiina way diideen, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo, oo sabtiyadaydiina si weyn bay nijaas ka dhigeen. Markaasaan idhi, Anigu waxaan korkooda ku shubi doonaa cadhadayda inta ay cidlada dhex joogaan si aan u baabbi'iyo.
Kodwa abantu bako-Israyeli bangihlamukela enkangala. Kabazilandelanga izimiso zami kodwa bayala imithetho yami, njalo batshaphaza amaSabatha ami kakhulu, ngakho umuntu oyilalelayo uzaphila ngayo. Ngokunjalo ngathi ngizathululela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo ngibaqede du enkangala.
14 Laakiinse magacayga daraaddiis ayaan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumihii ay dhex joogeen hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan soo bixiyey.
Kodwa ngenxa yebizo lami, ngenza okwakuzalivikela ekungcolisweni phambi kwezizwe engabakhupha zikhangele.
15 Oo weliba gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo ugu dhaaray cidlada dhexdeedii inaanan geeynayn dalkii aan siiyey oo caanaha iyo malabka la barwaaqaysan oo ah ammaantii dalalka oo dhan,
Njalo isandla siphakanyisiwe ngafunga kubo enkangala ukuthi angiyikubafikisa elizweni engangibaphe lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, elihle kakhulu kulamazwe wonke,
16 maxaa yeelay, xukummadaydii way diideen, oo qaynuunnadaydiina kuma ay socon oo sabtiyadaydii nijaas bay ka dhigeen, waayo, qalbigoodii wuxuu raacay sanamyadoodii.
ngoba imithetho yami bayala njalo kabalandelanga izimiso zami, batshaphaza lamaSabatha ami futhi. Ngoba inhliziyo zabo zazinamathele ezithombeni zabo.
17 Habase ahaatee ishaydii way u tudhay si aanan iyaga u baabbi'in, oo cidladiina kuma aanan dhex dhammayn.
Ikanti ngabazwela isihawu kangaze ngababhubhisa kumbe ngibaqede enkangala.
18 Oo waxaan carruurtoodii ku idhi intii ay cidladii dhex joogeen, Qaynuunnada aabbayaashiin ha ku soconina, oo xukummadoodana ha dhawrina, oo sanamyadoodana ha isku nijaasaynina.
Ngatsho ebantwaneni babo enkangala ngathi, “Lingalandeli izimiso zaboyihlo loba ligcine imithetho yabo loba lizingcolise ngezithombe zabo.
19 Aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah. Qaynuunnadayda ku socda, oo xukummadayda xajiya oo sameeya,
Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu; landelani izimiso zami linanzelele ukugcina imithetho yami.
20 oo sabtiyadayda quduus ka dhiga, oo iyana waxay ahaan doonaan calaamad aniga iyo idinka inoo dhexaysa, si aad u ogaataan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
Gcinani amaSabatha engcwele, ukuba abe yisibonakaliso phakathi kwami lani. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.”
21 Laakiinse carruurtiina way igu caasiyoobeen, oo qaynuunnadaydiina kuma ay socon, xukummadaydiina inay sameeyaan ma xajin, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo, oo sabtiyadaydiina nijaas bay ka dhigeen. Markaasaan idhi, Cadhadaydaan ku kor shubi doonaa, si aan xanaaqayga iyaga ugu dhammaystiro cidlada dhexdeeda.
Kodwa abantwana bangihlamukela: Kabazilandelanga izimiso zami, kabananzanga ukugcina imithetho yami lanxa umuntu oyilalelayo ezaphila ngayo njalo batshaphaza amaSabatha ami. Ngakho ngathi ngizathululela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo ngiqedele ukuthukuthela kwami kubo enkangala.
22 Habase ahaatee gacantaydii waan ka soo celiyey, oo magacayga daraaddiis baan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumaha hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan soo bixiyey.
Kodwa ngazithiba, njalo ngenxa yebizo lami ngenza okwakuzalivikela ekungcolisweni phambi kwezizwe engabakhupha zikhangele.
23 Oo weliba gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo ugu dhaartay cidlada dhexdeedii inaan iyaga quruumaha ku kala dhex eryi doono, oo aan waddammada ku dhex firdhin doono,
Njalo isandla siphakanyisiwe ngafunga kubo enkangala ukuthi ngangizabahlakazela phakathi kwezizwe ngibachithachithele emazweni,
24 maxaa yeelay, xukummadaydii ma ay samayn, laakiinse qaynuunnadaydii way diideen, oo sabtiyadaydiina nijaas bay ka dhigeen, oo indhahooduna waxay raaceen sanamyadii awowayaashood.
ngoba babengayilalelanga imithetho yami kodwa bezalile izimiso zami batshaphaza amaSabatha ami, lamehlo abo alangazela izithombe zaboyise.
25 Oo weliba iyagaan siiyey qaynuunno aan wanaagsanayn, iyo xukummo ayan ku noolaan karayn,
Futhi ngabanikela ezimisweni ezazingalunganga kanye lemithetho ababengeke baphile ngayo;
26 oo waxaan iyagii ku nijaaseeyey hadiyadahoodii, maxaa yeelay, dab bay u dhex marsiiyeen wixii maxal fura oo dhan, si aan iyaga cidla uga dhigo, si ay u ogaadaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
ngabayekela bangcoliswa yizipho zabo, imihlatshelo yamazibulo wonke ukuze ngibenze besabe khona bezakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.’
27 Sidaas aawadeed Wiilka Aadamow, waxaad la hadashaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Weliba taasay awowayaashiin igu caayeen, wayna igu xadgudbeen.
Ngakho-ke, ndodana yomuntu, khuluma labantu bako-Israyeli uthi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngakho lokhu, labokhokho benu bangithuka ngokungilahla.
28 Waayo, markaan dalka keenay, kaasoo aan gacanta ugu qaaday oo aan ugu dhaartay inaan iyaga siin doono ayay arkeen kur kasta oo dheer iyo geed kasta oo weyn, oo waxay halkaas ku bixiyeen allabaryadoodii, oo qurbaankoodii iga cadhaysiiyey ayay halkaas ku soo bixiyeen, oo weliba halkaasay caraftoodii udgoonayd ku sameeyeen, oo halkaasay qurbaannadoodii cabniinka ku daadiyeen.
Kwathi lapho sengibangenisile elizweni engangifunge ngathi ngizabapha lona, bathi bebona loba luphi uqaqa oluphakemeyo, loba siphi isihlahla esilamahlamvu amanengi, khonapho banikelela khona imihlatshelo yabo, banikela iminikelo eyangithukuthelisayo, banikela impepha yabo elephunga elimnandi, bathulula leminikelo yabo yokunathwayo.
29 Markaasaan ku idhi, Meesha sare oo aad tagtaan maxay tahay? Ilaa maantadan la joogo waxaa magaceeda la yidhaahdaa Baamaah.
Ngasengisithi kubo: Iyini indawo le ephakemeyo eliya kuyo?’” (Ithiwa yiBhama lalamhlanje.)
30 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaad reer binu Israa'iil ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Ma waxaad isu nijaasaysaan sidii awowayaashiin isu nijaaseeyeen oo kale? Oo ma waxaad ka daba gashaan waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah sida naag ninkeed ka dhillowda oo kale?
“Ngakho tshono endlini ka-Israyeli uthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lizazingcolisa yini njengabokhokho benu njalo lilangazele izithombe zabo ezenyanyekayo na?
31 Oo markaad hadiyadihiinna bixisaan, oo aad wiilashiinna dabka dhex marsiisaan ma waxaad isku nijaasaysaan sanamyadiinna oo dhan ilaa maantadan la joogo? Haddaba reer binu Israa'iilow, miyaan maqlaa waxaad i weyddiisanaysaan? Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, Maqli maayo waxaad i weyddiisataan.
Lapho linikela izipho zenu, imihlatshelo yamadodana enu emlilweni, liyaqhubeka lizingcolisa ngazozonke izithombe zenu kuze kube lamhla. Kumele ngivume na ukuba ungibuze, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli? Ngeqiniso elinjengoba ngikhona, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi, kangiyikuvuma ukuba lingibuze.
32 Oo waxa maankiinna soo galaana innaba ma ay ahaan doonaan, waayo, waxaad isku tidhaahdaan, Annagu waxaannu noqon doonnaa sida quruumaha kale, iyo sida qolooyinka waddammada deggan oo kale si aannu qoryo iyo dhagax ugu adeegno.
Lina lithi, “Sifuna ukuba njengezizwe, njengabantu basemhlabeni, abakhonza izigodo lamatshe.” Kodwa lokho elilakho engqondweni akusoze kwenzakale.
33 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, hubaal boqor baan idiinku ahaan doonaa gacan xoog badan iyo dhudhun fidsan iyo cadho la soo daadshay,
Ngeqiniso elinjengoba ngikhona, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi, ngizalibusa ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo kanye lolaka oluphuphumayo.
34 oo dadyowga waan idinka soo dhex bixin doonaa, oo waddammadii aad ku kala dhex firidheen waxaan idinkaga soo ururin doonaa gacan xoog badan iyo dhudhun fidsan iyo cadho la soo daadshay.
Ngizalithatha ezizweni ngiliqoqe emazweni elalihlakazelwe kuwo ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo kanye lolaka oluphuphumayo.
35 Oo waxaan idiin keeni doonaa cidlada dadyowga, oo halkaasaan fool ka fool idinkula xaajoon doonaa.
Ngizalisa enkangala yezizwe, kuthi khonapho sikhangelene ubuso ngobuso, ngizaletha ukwahlulela kwami phezu kwenu.
36 Sidii aan awowayaashiin cidladii dalka Masar ugula xaajooday oo kale ayaan idinkana idiinla xaajoon doonaa, ayaa Sayidka Rabbiga ahu leeyahay.
Njengoba ngahlulela okhokho benu enkangala yelizwe laseGibhithe, lani ngizalahlulela kanjalo, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
37 Oo waxaan idin soo marin doonaa usha hoosteeda, oo axdigaan idinku xidhi doonaa.
Ngizalinanzelela lapho lisedlula ngaphansi kwentonga yami, ngenze lani isibopho sesivumelwano.
38 Markaasaan idinka dhex sooci doonaa caasiyiinta iyo kuwa igu xadgudba. Waxaan iyaga ka soo bixin doonaa dalka ay qariib ahaanta u joogaan, laakiinse dalka reer binu Israa'iil sooma ay geli doonaan, oo idinkuna waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
Ngizabakhupha phakathi kwenu labo abahlamukayo bangivukele. Lanxa ngizabakhupha elizweni abahlala kulo, kodwa kabayikungena elizweni lako-Israyeli. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.
39 Reer binu Israa'iilow, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Haddeydnan i dhegaysanayn, taga, oo haddan iyo hadda dabadeedba midkiin kastaaba sanamyadiisa ha u adeego, laakiinse waa inaydaan magacayga quduuska ah mar dambe nijaas kaga dhigin hadiyadihiinna iyo sanamyadiinna.
Kuwe-ke, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Hambani liyekhonza izithombe zenu, lonke! Kodwa emva kwalokho ngeqiniso lizangilalela lingalingcolisi futhi ibizo lami ngezipho zenu langezithombe.
40 Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan kulligoodba dalka dhexdiisa ayay iigu adeegi doonaan buurtayda quduuska ah taasoo ah buurta dheer ee dalka reer binu Israa'iil, oo halkaasaan iyaga ku aqbali doonaa. Oo halkaasaan qurbaannadiinna iyo inta ugu horraysa ee hadiyadihiinna, iyo waxyaalihiinna quduuska ah oo dhanba idinku weyddiisan doonaa.
Ngoba entabeni yami engcwele, intaba ephakemeyo yako-Israyeli, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi, khonapho phakathi kwelizwe, yonke indlu ka-Israyeli izangikhonza, njalo khonapho ngizabamukela. Khonapho ngizafuna iminikelo yenu lezipho zenu zekhethelo ndawonye lemihlatshelo yenu yonke engcwele.
41 Oo sida caraf udgoon baan idiin aqbali doonaa markaan dadyowga idinka soo dhex bixiyo oo aan waddammadii aad ku kala dhex firidheen idinka soo ururiyo, oo dhexdiinnaan quduus ku ahaan doonaa quruumaha hortooda.
Ngizalamukela njengempepha elephunga elimnandi lapho sengilikhupha ezizweni njalo sengiliqoqa emazweni elalihlakazelwe kuwo, njalo ngizazibonakalisa ngingongcwele phakathi kwenu phambi kwezizwe.
42 Oo waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay, markaan idin dhex keeno dalka reer binu Israa'iil, kaasoo ah dalkii aan gacanta ugu qaaday awowayaashiin oo aan ugu dhaartay inaan iyaga siinayo.
Lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo lapho sengilingenisa elizweni lako-Israyeli, ilizwe engafunga ngesandla esiphakanyisiweyo ukuthi ngizalipha okhokho benu.
43 Oo halkaasaad jidadkiinnii iyo falimihiinnii aad isku nijaasayseenba ku soo xusuusan doontaan, oo waxyaalihiinnii sharka ahaa ee aad samayseen oo dhan ayaad isu nici doontaan.
Khonapho-ke lizakhumbula ukuziphatha kwenu lazozonke izenzo elizingcolise ngazo, njalo lizazenyanya ngenxa yobubi bonke elibenzileyo.
44 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iilow, iyadoo aan ahayn sidii jidadkiinnii sharka ahaa ay ahaayeen, amase sidii falimihiinnii qudhunka ahaa ay ahaayeen, markaan magacayga aawadiis idiinku shaqeeyo ayaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
Lizakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo lapho sengilijezisa ngenxa yebizo lami kodwa kungayisikho mayelana lezindlela zenu ezimbi kanye lezenzo zenu ezixhwalileyo, lina ndlu ka-Israyeli, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
45 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
46 Wiilka Aadamow, wejigaaga xagga koonfureed u sii jeedi, oo hadal xagga koonfureed ka gees ah ku hadal, oo waxaad wax ka sii sheegtaa kaynta duurka xagga koonfureed ku taal;
“Ndodana yomuntu, khangela ngaseningizimu; tshumayela okubi ngeningizimu uphrofithe okubi ngelizwe laseningizimu.
47 oo waxaad kaynta koonfureed ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga eraygiisa maqal: Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogow, dab baan kugu dhex shidi doonaa, oo wuxuu wada baabbi'in doonaa geed kasta oo qoyan oo dhexdaada ku yaal iyo geed kasta oo qallalanba. Ololka ololayana lama demin doono, oo weji kasta oo tan iyo xagga koonfureed iyo ilaa xagga woqooyi joogaana isaguu ku guban doonaa.
Tshono ehlathini laseningizimu uthi: ‘Zwana ilizwi likaThixo. Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Sekuseduze ukuthi ngilithungele ngomlilo njalo uzaziqeda zonke izihlahla zenu, ezimanzi lezomileyo. Ilangabi elivuthayo kaliyikucitshwa, njalo ubuso bonke kusukela eningizimu kusiya enyakatho buzatshiswa yiwo.
48 Oo binu-aadmiga oo dhammuna waxay wada arki doonaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan dabkaas shiday, oo innaba lama demin doono.
Umuntu wonke uzabona ukuthi mina Thixo yimi engiwuthungeleyo; kawuyikucitsha.’”
49 Markaasaan idhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, waxay iga yidhaahdaan, Sow isagu masaalooyin kuma hadlin?
Ngasengisithi, “Awu Thixo Wobukhosi! Bathi kimi, ‘Kakhulumi imifanekiso kuphela nje na?’”
