< Hesekiel 32 >
1 Mfe dumien mu, ɔsram a ɛto so dumien no da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
Ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili, ngenyanga yetshumi lambili ngosuku lokuqala, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
2 “Onipa ba, to kwadwom fa Misraimhene Farao ho na ka kyerɛ no se: “‘Wote sɛ gyata wɔ aman no mu: wote sɛ po mu aboa a ne ho yɛ hu wububu dikyi wɔ wo nsuten mu, wode wo nan boro nsuten no de fono nsu no.
“Ndodana yomuntu, khala isililo ngoFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe uthi kuye: ‘Wena unjengesilwane phakathi kwezizwe; unjengesilo phakathi kolwandle, uvubavuba amanzi ezifuleni zakho, uchaphaze amanzi ngezinyawo zakho, ungcolisa lezifula ngodaka.
3 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Mede dɔm bɛba abɛtow mʼasau agu wo so, na wɔbɛtwe wo afi mʼasau mu.
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngoquqaba olukhulu lwabantu ngizaphosela imbule lami phezu kwakho njalo bazakudonsela phezulu ngomambule wami.
4 Mɛtow wo akyene asase no so na mahiri wo ato sare so. Mɛma wim nnomaa nyinaa abesisi wo so na asase so mmoa nyinaa adi wo nam afrɛ so.
Ngizakuphosela emhlabathini ngikudonsele egcekeni egangeni. Ngizakwenza zonke izinyoni zasemoyeni zihlale phezu kwakho lezinyamazana zonke zasemhlabeni zizitike kuwe.
5 Mɛhata wo nam wɔ mmepɔw no so na mede wo funu ahyɛ aku ma.
Ngizachaya inyama yakho phezu kwezintaba njalo ngigcwalise izigodi ngezidumbu zakho.
6 Mede wo mogya a ɛresen no afɔw asase no de akɔka mmepɔw no na wo nam bɛhyɛ abon nketewa no ma.
Ngizathambisa ilizwe ngegazi lakho eligeleza indawo yonke kusiya ezintabeni, lezindonga zizagcwala inyama yakho.
7 Sɛ mitwa wo fi hɔ a, mɛkata ɔsoro ani na madunnum wɔn nsoromma; mede omununkum bɛkata owia ani, na ɔsram renhyerɛn.
Lapho sengikucitsha, ngizakwembesa amazulu ngenze izinkanyezi zawo zibe mnyama; ngizakwembesa ilanga ngeyezi, lenyanga ingabe isakhanyisa.
8 Ɔsoro akanea a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa mɛma aduru sum wɔ wo so; mɛma sum aduru wʼasase, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
Zonke izibane ezikhanyisa emazulwini ngizazenza zibe mnyama elizweni lakho, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
9 Mɛma nnipa bebree koma atutu bere a mede wo sɛe aba aman no mu, nsase a wunnya nhuu mu.
Ngizakhathaza inhliziyo zabantu abanengi lapho sengiletha ukuchithwa kwakho phakathi kwezizwe, phakathi kwamazwe ongazange uwazi.
10 Mɛma nnipa bebree ho adwiriw wɔn wɔ wo ho, wo nti, hu bɛma wɔn ahene ho apopo bere a merehim mʼafoa wɔ wɔn anim no. Da a wobɛhwe ase no wɔn mu biara ho bɛwosow bere nyinaa mu wɔ wɔn nkwa nti.
Ngizakwenza abantu abanengi bamangale ngawe, lamakhosi abo azathuthumela ngokwesaba ngenxa yakho lapho nginyikinya inkemba yami phambi kwawo. Ngosuku lokuwa kwakho lowo lalowo wabo uzaqhaqhazela isikhathi sonke sokuphila kwakhe.
11 “‘Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Babiloniahene afoa bɛsɔre wɔ wo so.
Ngoba nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Inkemba yenkosi yaseBhabhiloni izamelana lawe.
12 Mɛma wo dɔm no atotɔ wɔ dɔmmarima afoa ano, wɔ aman a wɔyɛ anuɔdenfo mu. Wɔbɛsɛe Misraim ahomaso pasaa na ne dɔm no nyinaa bedi nkogu.
Ngizakwenza amaxuku akho abulawe ngezinkemba zamadoda alamandla alesihluku kakhulu phakathi kwezizwe zonke. Azachoboza ukuziqhenya kweGibhithe, njalo wonke amaxuku alo azanqotshwa.
13 Mekunkum nʼanantwi nyinaa afi nsu bebree no ho na onipa nan rentiatia mu bio na anantwi tɔte nso remfono no.
Ngizabulala zonke inkomo zabo ngaseduzane lamanzi amanengi angaphindi adungwe lunyawo lomuntu futhi kumbe angcoliswe ngamasondo enkomo ngodaka.
14 Afei mɛma ne nsu ani atew na mama ne nsuten ateɛ sɛ ngo,
Lapho-ke ngizakwenza amanzi alo azinze lezifula zalo zigeleze njengamafutha, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
15 Sɛ mema Misraim da mpan na miyi biribiara fi asase no so, sɛ mikum wɔn a wɔte so nyinaa a, afei na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’
Lapho iGibhithe sengilichitha ngiphundla ilizwe lakho konke okukulo, lapho sengibacakazela phansi bonke abahlala khona, lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.’
16 “Eyi ne kwadwom a wɔbɛto ama no. Amanaman no mmabea bɛto ama Misraim ne ne dɔm nyinaa, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
Lesi yisililo esizaculelwa iGibhithe. Amadodakazi ezizwe azasicula: azasiculela iGibhithe kanye lamaxuku alo wonke, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.”
17 Afe a ɛto so dumien no ne sram da a ɛto so dunum no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
Ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili, ngosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwenyanga, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
18 “Onipa ba, twa adwo ma Misraim dɔm na ma ɔne amanaman akɛse no mmabea nsian nkɔ asase ase nkɔka wɔn a wɔasian kɔ amoa mu no ho.
“Ndodana yomuntu, lilela amaxuku aseGibhithe njalo wehlisele ngaphansi komhlaba kokubili lona iGibhithe kanye lamadodakazi ezizwe ezilamandla, lalabo abehlela phansi egodini.
19 Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Wadom mo dodo sen wɔn a aka no ana? Munsian nkɔ na mo ne momonotofo no nkɔda.’
Tshono kubo uthi, ‘Lina liyathandwa kakhulu kulabanye na? Yehlelani phansi lilale phakathi kwabangasokanga.’
20 Wɔbɛka wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no ho. Wɔatwe afoa no, ma wɔntwe ne nnipadɔm no ase nkɔ.
Bazafela phakathi kwalabo ababulawa ngenkemba. Inkemba isihwatshiwe; iGibhithe kalihudulwe lamaxuku alo wonke.
21 Akannifo akɛse a wɔwɔ ɔda mu bɛka afa Misraim ne ne dɔm ho se, ‘Wɔasian aba na wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no.’ (Sheol )
Abakhokheli abalamandla bazakutsho ngeGibhithe labamanyene layo bephakathi kwengcwaba bathi, ‘Sebehlele phansi njalo balele labangasokanga, lalabo ababulawa ngenkemba.’ (Sheol )
22 “Asiria ne nʼasraafo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔn a wɔakunkum wɔn no nna atwa ne ho ahyia, wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no.
I-Asiriya ikhona lebutho layo lonke; izungezwe ngamangcwaba abo bonke abayo ababuleweyo; bonke ababulawe ngenkemba.
23 Wɔn nna no wɔ amoa no ase tɔnn na nʼasraafo deda ne nna ho nyinaa. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so no nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano.
Amangcwaba abo asekuzikeni kwegodi njalo ibutho layo lilele lihanqe ingcwaba layo. Bonke abandisa ukwesaba elizweni labaphilayo babulewe, bebulawa ngenkemba.
24 “Elam wɔ hɔ, ne nnipadɔm nyinaa atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so nyinaa sian kɔɔ asase ase sɛ momonotofo. Wɔde wɔn animguase kɔka wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no ho.
I-Elamu ikhona, lamaxuku ayo wonke azungeze ingcwaba layo. Bonke babulewe, bebulawa ngenkemba. Bonke abandisa ukwesaba elizweni labaphilayo behlela phansi ngaphansi komhlaba bengasokanga. Bathwele ihlazo labo belalabo abehlela phansi egodini.
25 Wɔato mpa ama no wɔ atɔfo no mu, na ne dɔm atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Esiane sɛ wɔn ahunahuna trɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so no nti, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no nyinaa anim agu ase. Wɔadeda wɔn wɔ atɔfo no mu.
Yenzelwa umbheda phakathi kwababuleweyo, lamaxuku ayo wonke ehanqe ingcwaba layo. Bonke kabasokanga, babulawa ngenkemba. Ngoba ukwesatshwa kwabo kwasekugcwele elizweni labaphilayo, bathwala ihlazo labo lalabo abehlela phansi egodini; babekwa phakathi kwababuleweyo.
26 “Mesek ne Tubal wɔ hɔ a wɔn dɔm atwa wɔn nna ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano efisɛ wɔtrɛtrɛw wɔn ahunahuna mu wɔ ateasefo asase so.
IMesheki leThubhali akhona, lamaxuku awo wonke ezungeze amangcwaba awo. Wonke amaxuku kawasokanga, abulewe ngoba andisa ukwesatshwa kwawo elizweni labaphilayo.
27 Ɛnyɛ wɔn ne akofo momonotofo foforo a wɔatotɔ na wɔdeda hɔ no ana? Wɔn a wɔne wɔn akode sian kɔɔ nna mu na wɔn ti deda wɔn afoa so no. Wɔn amumɔyɛ so asotwe daa wɔn nnompe so, mmom saa akofo yi ahunahuna atrɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so. (Sheol )
Kanje kawalele lamanye amabutho angasokanga awafayo, wona ehlela phansi engcwabeni lezikhali zawo zempi, azinkemba zawo zabekwa ngaphansi kwamakhanda awo na? Isijeziso sezono zawo sahlala phezu kwamathambo awo, lanxa ukwesatshwa kwamabutho la kwagcwala elizweni labaphilayo. (Sheol )
28 “Farao, wo nso wobebubu wo mu na woakɔda momonotofo mu, wo ne wɔn a wɔtotɔɔ wɔ afoa ano no.
Lawe futhi, wena Faro, uzakwephulwa njalo ulale phakathi kwabangasokanga, lalabo ababulawa ngenkemba.
29 “Edom wɔ hɔ, nʼahemfo ne ne mmapɔmma nyinaa deda wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no mu, wɔn tumi nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no.
I-Edomi ikhona, amakhosi ayo lamakhosana ayo wonke; phezu kwamandla abo, balaliswa lalabo ababulawa ngenkemba. Balele labangasokanga, lalabo abehlela phansi egodini.
30 “Mmapɔmma a wofi atifi fam nyinaa ne Sidonfo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔne atɔfo kɔɔ wɔ animguase mu, wɔn tumi a wɔde hunahuna no nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda hɔ sɛ momonotofo, wɔne wɔn a wokum wɔn wɔ afoa ano, na wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no asoa wɔn animguase.
Wonke amakhosana asenyakatho kanye lamaSidoni wonke bakhona; behlela phansi lababulawayo behlazekile lanxa kulokwesaba okwabangelwa ngamandla abo. Balele bengasokanga kanye lalabo ababulawa ngenkemba njalo bathwala ihlazo labo lalabo abehlela phansi egodini.
31 “Farao, ɔne nʼasraafo nyinaa behu wɔn na ne werɛ bɛkyekye wɔ ne dɔm a wokunkum wɔn wɔ afoa ano no ho, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
UFaro lebutho lakhe uzababona njalo uzaduduzeka ngamaxuku akhe wonke abulawa ngenkemba, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
32 Mmom me na memaa Farao ne ne nnipadɔm de ahunahuna trɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so de, nanso wɔbɛdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wɔde afoa kunkum wɔn, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
Lanxa ngamenza wandisa ukwesaba elizweni labaphilayo, uFaro kanye lamaxuku akhe wonke, bazalaliswa phakathi kwabangasokanga, lalabo ababulawa ngenkemba, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.”
