Hesekiel 26
1 Afe a ɛto so dubaako no sram da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye, ngosuku lwakuqala lwenyanga, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
2 “Onipa ba, esiane sɛ Tiro aka afa Yerusalem ho se, ‘Ɛhɛɛ! Amanaman no ano pon abubu na nʼapon no abuebue ama me; mprempren a kuropɔn yi asɛe yi, menya nkɔso.’
“Ndodana yomuntu, ngoba iThire itshilo kulo iJerusalema yathi, ‘Aha!’ Isango lokuya ezizweni lidilikile, leminyango isivulekele mina; njengoba khathesi selingamanxiwa ngizaphumelela,
3 Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Me ne wo anya, Tiro, mede aman bebree bɛba abetia wo te sɛ po a ɛrebɔ nʼasorɔkye.
ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngimelana lawe, wena Thire, njalo ngizakulethela izizwe ezinengi zimelane lawe njengolwandle luphosa amagagasi alo phezulu.
4 Wɔbɛsɛe Tiro afasu na wɔadwiriw nʼabantenten no. Mɛpa so dɔte agu ama ayɛ ɔbotan kwaboo.
Zizadiliza imiduli yaseThire, ziwisele phansi imiphotshongo yalo; ngizaphala inkunkuma yalo ngilenze libe lidwala elingelalutho.
5 Obefi po mu abɛyɛ beae a wɔhata asau, efisɛ makasa. Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni. Ɔbɛyɛ amanaman no asade,
Elwandle lizakuba yindawo yokuchayela amambule enhlanzi, ngoba sengikhulumile, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi. Lizakuba yimpango yezizwe,
6 na afoa bɛsɛe nʼatenae a ɛwɔ asase kesee so no pasaa. Afei wobehu sɛ, mene Awurade no.
lemizana yalo ephakathi kwelizwe izachithwa ngenkemba. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.
7 “Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Merekɔfa Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar, ahene mu hene, ne ne apɔnkɔ ne nteaseɛnam, ne apɔnkɔsotefo ne nsraadɔm kɛse afi atifi fam aba wo so.
Ngoba nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizaletha uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, inkosi yamakhosi, evela enyakatho ukuba amelane leThire, ngamabhiza lezinqola zempi, ngabagadi bamabhiza kanye lebutho elikhulu.
8 Ɔde afoa bɛsɛe wʼatenae a ɛwɔ asase kesee no so no pasaa; obesisi mpampim ayɛ mpempe wɔ wʼafasu ho na wama ne nkatabo so atia wo.
Uzachitha imizana yakho phakathi kwelizwe ngenkemba; uzamisa izindawo zokuvimbezela, akhe idundulu kusiya phezulu emdulini wakho njalo akuphakamisele lamahawu amelane lawe.
9 Ɔde oburuw nnua bɛpempem wʼafasu no, na ɔde akode abubu wʼabantenten no asɛe no.
Uzaqondisa imigqala yakhe yokudiliza emidulini yakho, abhidlize imiphotshongo yakho ngezikhali zakhe.
10 Nʼapɔnkɔ no bɛdɔɔso yiye, na wɔbɛbɔ mfutuma akata wo so. Ɔsa apɔnkɔ no, nkyimii ne nteaseɛnam nnyigyei bɛma wʼafasu awosow, bere a wɔahyɛn wo apon mu, sɛnea mmarima hyɛn kuropɔn a nʼafasu mu adeda akwan no.
Amabhiza akhe azakuba manengi kakhulu okuzakwenza akwembese ngothuli. Imiduli yakho izanyikinyiswa ngumsindo wamabhiza empi, izinqola zokuthwala kanye lezinqola zempi lapho esengena emasangweni akho njengabantu abangena edolobheni elilemiduli efohliweyo.
11 Nʼapɔnkɔ no tɔte betiatia wo mmɔnten nyinaa so, ɔde afoa bekunkum wo nkurɔfo na wʼafadum dennen no bebubu agu fam.
Amasondo amabhiza akhe azanyathela zonke izitalada zakho; uzabulala abantu bakho ngenkemba; lezinsika zakho eziqinileyo zizawela phansi.
12 Wɔbɛfom wʼahode na wɔawia wʼaguade, wobebubu wʼafasu, na wɔadwiriw wʼadan fɛfɛ no na wɔatotow wʼabo, wo nnua ne wo dɔte agu po mu.
Bazaphanga inotho yakho bathumbe impahla yakho ethengiswayo; bazadiliza imiduli yakho babhidlize lezindlu zakho ezinhle njalo baphosele amatshe akho, lezigodo kanye lenkunkuma elwandle.
13 Mɛma wo nnwonto gyegyeegye no aba awiei na wɔrente wo sanku so nnwonto no bio.
Ngizaqeda umsindo wezingoma zakho; lomculo wamachacho akho awuyikuzwakala futhi.
14 Mɛyɛ wo ɔbotan kwaboo na wo so na wɔbɛhata asau. Wɔrenkyekyere wo bio.
Ngizakwenza ube lidwala elize, njalo uzakuba yindawo yokuchayela amambule enhlanzi. Kawuyikwakhiwa futhi, ngoba mina Thixo sengikhulumile, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
15 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade ka kyerɛ Tiro: Sɛ wo mpoano nkurow no te wʼasehwe ho apinisi ne akunkumakunkum a asi wɔ wo mu a, wɔn ho rempopo ana?
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi kuyo iThire: Kambe amazwe angasolwandle kawayikunyikinyeka yini ngomsindo wokuwa kwakho, lapho abalimeleyo sebebubula njalo lokubulala sekusenzakala phakathi kwakho na?
16 Afei mpoano mmapɔmma no nyinaa befi wɔn nhengua so, ayiyi wɔn nguguso ne ntade a wɔadi mu adwinni agu hɔ. Ehu bɛbɔ wɔn ama wɔatenatena fam, wɔn ho bɛpopo na wɔn ho adwiriw wɔn wɔ wo nti.
Lapho-ke wonke amakhosana angasolwandle azakwehla ezihlalweni zawo zobukhosi akhuphe izembatho zawo njalo ahlubule lezembatho zawo ezicecisiweyo. Ephethwe yikwesaba, azahlala phansi, eqhaqhazela isikhathi sonke, ngokwesaba wena.
17 Afei wɔbɛma kwadwom a ɛfa wo ho so se: “‘Hwɛ sɛnea wɔasɛe wo, kuropɔn a woagye din, wo a po sofo na ɛte wo mu, na anka wowɔ tumi wɔ po so! Wo ne wo manfo; wode hu hyɛɛ wɔn a wɔte hɔ nyinaa mu.
Lapho-ke azaqhinqa isililo ngawe athi kuwe: ‘Yeka ukuchitheka kwakho, wena dolobho lodumo, ogcwele ngabantu basolwandle! Wawulamandla elwandle wena kanye labakhe kuwe; waletha ukwesabeka kwakho kubo bonke ababehlala khona.
18 Mprempren, mpoano nsase no ho popo wɔ wʼasehwe da no; asupɔw a ɛwɔ po mu no abɔ hu wɔ wʼasehwe no ho.’
Khathesi amazwe angasolwandle ayathuthumela ngosuku lokuwa kwakho; izihlenge zasolwandle ziyakwesaba ukuwa kwakho.’
19 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ mema woyɛ kuropɔn a ada mpan te sɛ nkuropɔn a nnipa ntete so, na sɛ mema po bun ba wo so na sɛ ne mu nsu bebrebe no bɛkata wo so a,
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lapho ngikwenza ube lidolobho elichithekileyo, njengamadolobho angasahlali muntu, njalo lapho ngiletha inziki zolwandle phezu kwakho kuthi amanzi alo amanengi kakhulu akwembese,
20 mede wo ne wɔn a wɔkɔ amoa mu no besian akɔ teteetefo no nkyɛn. Mɛma woatena asase ase hɔ te sɛ tete mmubui, wo ne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no, na worensan anaa worennya kyɛfa wɔ ateasefo asase so.
lapho-ke ngizakuletha phansi lalabo abaya phansi egodini, ebantwini basendulo. Ngizakuhlalisa ngaphansi komhlaba, kunjengasemanxiweni endulo, lalabo abaya phansi egodini, njalo kawuyikuphenduka loba ube lendawo yakho elizweni labaphilayo.
21 Mede wo bɛba awiei a ɛyɛ hu mu na worenhu bio. Wɔbɛhwehwɛ wo nanso wɔrenhu wo bio da, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
Ngizakwenza ukucina kwakho kube ngokwesabekayo uhle utshabalale. Uzadingwa, kodwa ungatholakali futhi, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.”
