Selemaia 18
1 Ko e folofola ʻaia naʻe hoko mai meia Sihova, kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē,
Eyi ne Awurade asɛm a ɛbaa Yeremia nkyɛn.
2 “Tuʻu hake pea ke ʻalu hifo ki he fale ʻoe tufunga ngaohi ipu, pea te u pule ke ke fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea ʻi ai.”
“Kɔ ɔnwemfo no fi, na hɔ na mede mʼasɛm no bɛma wo.”
3 Pea naʻaku toki ʻalu hifo ki he fale ʻoe tufunga ngaohi ipu, pea vakai, naʻa ne ngāueʻaki ʻae meʻa tākai.
Ɛno nti, mekɔɔ ɔnwemfo no fi na mihuu no sɛ, ɔreyɛ adwuma wɔ ne ntwahode so.
4 Pea ko e ipu ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻumea, naʻe maumauʻi ia ʻi he nima ʻoe tufunga: ko ia naʻe toe ngaohi ia ko e ipu kehe, ʻo hangē ko e loto ʻoe tufunga ki ai.
Nanso kuku a na ɔde dɔte no reyɛ ho adwuma no sɛe wɔ ne nsam; ɛno nti ɔnwemfo no yɛɛ kuku foforo, sɛnea eye pa ara ma no.
5 Pea naʻe toki hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē.
Afei Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
6 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻikai te u fai kiate kimoutolu ʻo hangē ko e tufunga ngaohi ipu ni? Vakai, ʻE fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku mou ʻi hoku nima, ʻo hangē ko e ʻumea ʻi he nima ʻoe tangata tufunga ngaohi ipu.
“Israelfi, merentumi nyɛ mo sɛnea ɔnwemfo yi yɛ ana?” Awurade na ose. “Sɛnea dɔte te wɔ ɔnwemfo nsam no, saa ara na mote wɔ me nsam, Israelfi.
7 ʻO kau ka lea ki ha kakai, pe ha puleʻanga, ke taʻaki, pe lī ki lalo, pe fakaʻauha ia;
Sɛ bere biara meka se ɛsɛ sɛ wotutu ɔman bi anaa ahenni bi ase, dwerɛw wɔn, sɛe wɔn a,
8 Kapau ʻe tafoki ʻae kakai, ʻaia kuo u lea ki ai, mei heʻenau kovi, te u fakatomala ʻi he kovi ʻaia naʻaku loto ke ʻomi kiate kinautolu.
na sɛ ɔman a mebɔɔ no kɔkɔ no sakra fi ne bɔne ho a, mɛsakra mʼadwene na meremfa amanehunu a misusuwii sɛ mede bɛba wɔn so mma bio.
9 Pea kau ka lea ki ha kakai, pea ki ha puleʻanga, ke langa mo fokotuʻu ia;
Na sɛ mmere foforo bi meka se, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkyekye ɔman anaa ahenni bi gye no si hɔ,
10 Kapau ʻe fai kovi ia ʻi hoku ʻao, pea ʻikai talangofua ki hoku leʻo, pea te u toki fakatomala ʻi he lelei, ʻaia naʻaku pehē te u fai ke nau lelei ai.
na sɛ ɔyɛ bɔne wɔ mʼani so na wanyɛ osetie amma me a, ɛno de mesan adwene papa a mepɛɛ sɛ meyɛ no no ho.
11 “Pea ko eni, ke ke ʻalu, pea ke lea ki he kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema, ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; vakai, ʻoku ou teuteu ha kovi kiate kimoutolu, pea tuʻutuʻuni ha tauhele kiate kimoutolu: mou taki taha tafoki leva mei hono hala kovi, pea ngaohi ke lelei homou ngaahi hala, mo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga.
“Na afei ka kyerɛ Yudafo ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem no se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Hwɛ! mede amanehunu reba mo so, na mereyɛ nhyehyɛe a etia mo. Ɛno nti mo mu biara nnan mfi nʼakwammɔne so na munsiesie mo akwan ne mo nneyɛe.’
12 Pea naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻamanaki lelei; ka te mau taki taha muimui ki heʻene filioʻi, pea taki taha fai ʻo hangē ko e holi ʻa hono loto kovi.’”
Nanso wobebua se, ‘So nni mfaso. Yɛbɛkɔ so adi yɛn ara yɛn nhyehyɛe so; yɛn mu biara bɛyɛ asoɔden a efi ne koma bɔne mu.’”
13 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Mou fehuʻi eni ki he hiteni, pe ko hai kuo fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa pehē: kuo fai ʻae meʻa fakalielia ʻaupito ʻaupito ʻe he taʻahine ʻo ʻIsileli.
Ɛno nti nea Awurade se ni, “Mummisa wɔ amanaman no mu se, hena na wate biribi sɛɛ pɛn? Ɔbabun Israel ayɛ ade bi a ɛyɛ hu yiye.
14 ʻE liʻaki koā ʻae ʻuha hinehina ʻo Lepanoni, ʻaia ʻoku tafe mei he makatuʻu ki he ngoue? Pe ʻe liʻaki ʻae vaitafe momoko ʻoku tafe mai, maʻae vai kehe ʻoku keli pe?
So sukyerɛmma a ɛwɔ Lebanon no yera fi nʼabotan a esian no so ana? So nʼatifi nsu wiridudu a efi akyirikyiri no gyae sen ana?
15 Koeʻuhi kuo fakangalongaloʻi au ʻe hoku kakai, kuo nau tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he meʻa vaʻinga, pea kuo nau fakahinga ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi hala mei he ngaahi hala motuʻa, ka nau ʻeveʻeva ʻi he hala, mo e ʻalunga naʻe ʻikai tanu hake;
Nanso me nkurɔfo werɛ afi me. Wɔhyew nnuhuam ma ahoni huhuw, a ɛma wohintihintiw wɔ wɔn akwan so ne tete atempɔn so. Wɔma wɔfa kwatikwan ne akwan a wɔmmɔe so.
16 Ke fakalala honau fonua, pea ngaohi ia ko e manukiʻanga; pea ʻe ofo ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ki ai, pea kalokalo honau ʻulu.
Wɔn asase bɛda mpan, na ayɛ ade a wobebu no animtiaa daa; wɔn a wotwa mu hɔ no ho bedwiriw wɔn na wobehinhim wɔn ti.
17 Te u fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fili ʻo hangē ko e matangi hahake; pea ʻe ʻikai te u fakahā hoku ʻao, ka te u fulituʻa kiate kinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tuʻutāmaki.”
Sɛnea apuei mframa te no, mɛbɔ wɔn ahwete wɔ wɔn atamfo anim; mɛdan mʼakyi akyerɛ wɔn na ɛnyɛ mʼanim wɔ wɔn amanehunu da no.”
18 Pea naʻa nau toki pehē, “Ko eni ke tau fakakaukau ha meʻa kia Selemaia; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai mole ʻae fono mei he taulaʻeiki, pe ko e fakakaukau mei he tangata poto, pe ko e lea mei he palōfita. Mou haʻu, ke tau tā ia ʻi hono ʻelelo, pea ʻoua naʻa tau tokanga ki heʻene ngaahi lea.”
Wɔkae se, “Mommra ma yɛmfa adwene ntia Yeremia; sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a asɔfo no nkyerɛkyerɛ a ɛfa mmara no ho, anyansafo no afotu anaa asɛm a efi adiyifo hɔ no renyera. Mommra na yentu yɛn ano ngu ne so a yɛrentie nea ɔbɛka biara.”
19 “Tokanga mai kiate au, ʻE Sihova, pea fanongo ki he leʻo ʻonautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi au.
Yɛ aso ma me, Awurade; tie nea wɔn a wɔpam me ti so no reka!
20 ʻE totongi koā ʻaki ʻae kovi ki he lelei? He kuo nau keli ʻae luo ki hoku laumālie. Ke ke manatu naʻaku tuʻu ʻi ho ʻao, ke hūfia ʻakinautolu, pea ke fakaafe ho houhau meiate kinautolu.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde bɔne tua papa so ka ana? Nanso wɔatu amoa ama me. Kae sɛ migyinaa wʼanim na mekasa maa wɔn, sɛnea wubeyi wʼabufuwhyew afi wɔn so.
21 Ko ia tukuange ʻenau fānau ki he honge, pea lilingi honau [toto ]ʻi he mālohi ʻoe heletā; pea tuku ke mole ʻae fānau ʻa honau ngaahi fefine, pea mate honau husepāniti; pea tuku ke tāmateʻi honau kau tangata: pea ke ke tāmateʻi ʻaki honau kau talavou ʻae heletā ʻi he tau.
Ɛno nti, ma ɔkɔm nne wɔn mma; yi wɔn ma afoa. Ma wɔn yerenom nyɛ abonin ne akunafo; ma wonkunkum wɔn mmarima, na wɔmfa afoa nkunkum wɔn mmerante wɔ ɔko mu.
22 Tuku ke ongo mai ʻae kaila mei honau ngaahi fale, ʻoka ke ka ʻomi fakafokifā pe ha kau tau kiate kinautolu; he kuo nau keli ha luo ke maʻu ai au, pea ʻai fakafufū ha tauhele ki hoku vaʻe.
Ma wɔnte osu wɔ wɔn afi mu bere a atamfo atu wɔn so sa mpofirim, efisɛ wɔatu amoa ama me, na wɔasunsum mʼanan mfiri.
23 Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke ʻafioʻi ʻenau fakakaukau kotoa pē kiate au ke tāmateʻi au: ʻoua naʻa fakamolemole ʻenau hia, pea ʻoua naʻa tāmateʻi ʻenau angahala mei ho ʻao, kae tuku ke ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi ho ʻao; ke ke fai pehē kiate kinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ho houhau.”
Nanso wunim Awurade, pɔw a wɔabɔ nyinaa se wobekum me. Mfa wɔn nsɛmmɔne nkyɛ wɔn, na nyi wʼani mfi wɔn bɔne so. Ma wonni nkogu wɔ wʼanim; na wo ne wɔn nni wɔ wʼabufuw mu.
