Hesekiel 7
1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
2 “Onipa ba, eyi ne asɛm a Otumfo Awurade ka kyerɛ Israel asase no: “‘Awiei no! Awiei no adu asase no ntwea anan no so.
Wena-ke, ndodana yomuntu, itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova kulo ilizwe lakoIsrayeli: Isiphetho, isiphetho sesifikile phezu kwamagumbi womane elizwe.
3 Awiei no adu wɔ wo so, na mehwie mʼabufuwhyew agu wo so. Megyina wʼabrabɔ so abu wo atɛn na matua wo ka wɔ wo nneyɛe bɔne nyinaa ho.
Khathesi isiphetho siphezu kwakho, njalo ngizathumela ukuthukuthela kwami phakathi kwakho, ngikwahlulele njengokwezenzo zakho, ngehlisele phezu kwakho wonke amanyala akho.
4 Merenhu wo mmɔbɔ na meremfa wo ho nkyɛ wo. Ampa ara metua wo ka wɔ wo suban ne nneyɛe bɔne a ɛwɔ wo mu no ho, na moahu sɛ mene Awurade.’
Lelihlo lami kaliyikukuhawukela, kangiyikuyekela, kodwa ngizakwehlisela izindlela zakho phezu kwakho, lamanyala akho azakuba phakathi kwakho. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
5 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Atoyerɛnkyɛm! Atoyerɛnkyɛm a wontee da nam kwan so reba.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ububi, ububi obubodwa, khangela, sebufikile.
6 Awiei no aba! Awiei no aba! Ama ne ho so atia wo. Aba!
Isiphetho sesifikile, isiphetho sesifikile, siyakuvukela; khangela, sesifikile.
7 Ɔsɛe aba mo so, aba mo a mote asase no so no so. Bere no adu, da no abɛn; huboabɔ a ɛnyɛ mmepɔw so ahosɛpɛw.
Ukusa sekufikile kuwe, wena mhlali welizwe; isikhathi sesifikile, usuku lwenkathazo luseduze, njalo kungeyisikho ukumemeza ngenjabulo kwezintaba.
8 Merebehwie mʼabufuwhyew agu wo so de awie mʼabufuw a etia wo no. Megyina wo nneyɛe so abu wo atɛn, na matua wo nneyɛe bɔne nyinaa so ka.
Khathesi, kuseduze ukuthi ngithululele ulaka lwami phezu kwakho, ngiphelelise intukuthelo yami phakathi kwakho, ngikwahlulele njengokwezindlela zakho, ngehlisele phezu kwakho wonke amanyala akho.
9 Merenhu wo mmɔbɔ, na meremfa wo ho nkyɛ wo. Metua wo ka wɔ wo suban ne nneyɛe bɔne a ɛwɔ wo mu no ho. Afei mubehu sɛ me, Awurade, na mebobɔ mo.
Lelihlo lami kaliyikuhawukela, njalo kangiyikuyekela; ngizanika njengokwezindlela zakho phezu kwakho, lamanyala akho azakuba phakathi kwakho. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi etshayayo.
10 “‘Da no ni; hwɛ, aba! Atemmuda no apue, abaa no afefɛw, ahantan ahaahan!
Khangela usuku, khangela, selufikile; ukusa sekuphumile; intonga ihlumile, ukuziqhenya kukhahlele.
11 Kitikitiyɛ asɔre, abaa a wɔde twe amumɔyɛ aso. Ɛrenka nnipa no mu biara, dɔm no mu biara, ahonyade ne nea ɛsom bo biara renka.
Udlakela lusukume lwaba yintonga yobubi; kakuyikusala kubo, hatshi-ke exukwini labo, hatshi-ke okwabo, njalo kakuyikuba khona ukuqhinqa isililo phakathi kwabo.
12 Bere no aso, da no adu. Mma adetɔni ani nnye anaa ɔdetɔnfo werɛ nhow, efisɛ abufuwhyew wɔ nnipadɔm no nyinaa so.
Isikhathi sesifikile, usuku selusondele; umthengi kangathokozi, lomthengisi angalili, ngoba ulaka luphezu kwexuku lonke lalo.
13 Nea ɔtɔn no nsa renka asase a watɔn no bio wɔ bere a wɔn baanu te ase, efisɛ anisoadehu a ɛfa nnipadɔm no nyinaa ho no rensesa. Wɔn bɔne nti, wɔn mu baako koraa remfa ne ho nni.
Ngoba umthengisi kayikubuyela kokuthengisiweyo, lanxa impilo yabo isesephakathi kwabaphilayo; ngoba umbono mayelana lexuku lonke lalo kawuyikuphenduka; futhi kakulamuntu ongaqinisa impilo yakhe ngesiphambeko sakhe.
14 “‘Wɔahyɛn akobɛn no, na wɔboaboa biribiara ano de, nanso obiara renkɔ ɔsa, efisɛ mʼabufuwhyew wɔ nnipakuw no nyinaa so.
Baluvuthele uphondo ukuthi balungise konke, kodwa kakho oya empini, ngoba ulaka lwami luphezu kwexuku lalo lonke.
15 Afoa wɔ mfikyiri na ɔyaredɔm ne ɔkɔm wɔ fie; wɔn a wɔwɔ ɔman no mu bɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Wɔn a wɔwɔ kuropɔn no mu no, ɔyaredɔm ne ɔkɔm bekum wɔn.
Inkemba ingaphandle, lomatshayabhuqe wesifo lendlala kungaphakathi; osegangeni uzakufa ngenkemba, losemzini indlala lomatshayabhuqe wesifo kuzamqeda.
16 Wɔn a wɔanya wɔn ti adidi mu na wɔaguan no bɛtena mmepɔw no so. Na wɔakurum te sɛ aku mu mmorɔnoma, wɔn mu biara bɔne nti.
Kodwa abaphunyukayo babo bazaphunyuka, babe sezintabeni njengamajuba ezihotsha, bonke belila, ngulowo lalowo ngenxa yesiphambeko sakhe.
17 Nsa nyinaa bedwudwo na nkotodwe nyinaa ayɛ mmrɛw sɛ nsu.
Zonke izandla zizaphela amandla, lamadolo wonke ageleze njengamanzi.
18 Wobefurafura atweaatam na wɔabɔ huboa. Aniwu bɛkata wɔn anim na wɔayi wɔn tinwi.
Njalo bazabhinca amasaka, lovalo luzabembesa, lenhloni zibe sebusweni bonke, lempabanga phezu kwamakhanda abo wonke.
19 “‘Wɔbɛtow wɔn dwetɛ agu mmɔnten so, na wɔn sikakɔkɔɔ bɛyɛ ade a ɛho ntew. Wɔn dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ rentumi nnye wɔn Awurade abufuwhyew da no. Ɛrenkum wɔn kɔm na ɛrenhyɛ wɔn yafunu ma, efisɛ ayɛ wɔn hintidua de wɔn akɔ bɔne mu.
Bazalahla isiliva sabo ezitaladeni, legolide labo libe yikungcola; isiliva sabo legolide labo kakuyikuba lakho ukubophula ngosuku lokuthukuthela kweNkosi; kabayikonelisa umphefumulo wabo, bangagcwalisi amathumbu abo; ngoba kuyisikhubekiso sesiphambeko sabo.
20 Na wɔde wɔn nnwinne afɛfɛ no hoahoa wɔn ho, na wɔde yeyɛɛ wɔn ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade ne nsɛsode tantan. Enti mɛdan eyinom nneɛma a ho ntew no ama wɔn.
Lobuhle besiceciso sakhe wabumisa ebukhosini, kodwa benza kubo imifanekiso yokunengekayo kwabo lezinengiso zabo; ngenxa yalokho ngibumise bube yinto engcolileyo kubo.
21 Mede ne nyinaa bɛma ananafo sɛ asade na mede ama asase so atirimɔdenfo sɛ akorɔnne, na wobegu ho fi.
Njalo ngizakunikela esandleni sabezizwe kube yimpango, lakwabakhohlakeleyo bomhlaba kube yimpango, njalo bazakungcolisa.
22 Meyi mʼani afi wɔn so na wobegu beae a ɛsom me bo no ho fi. Akorɔmfo bewura hɔ na wɔagu ho fi.
Njalo ngizaphendula ubuso bami busuke kubo, bangcolise indawo yami yensitha; ngoba abaphangi bazangena kuyo, bayingcolise.
23 “‘Monyɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn, efisɛ mogyahwiegu ayɛ asase no so ma, na akakabensɛm ahyɛ kuropɔn no ma.
Yenza iketane, ngoba ilizwe ligcwele amacala egazi, lomuzi ugcwele udlakela.
24 Mɛma aman no mu otirimɔdenfo pa ara abɛfa wɔn afi; mɛma ɔhoɔdenfo ahomaso aba awiei, na wɔn kronkrommea ho begu fi.
Ngakho ngizaletha ababi bezizwe, abazakudla ilifa lezindlu zabo; ngikwenze kuphele ukuziqhenya kwabalamandla; lendawo zabo ezingcwele zizangcoliswa.
25 Sɛ ehu ba a, wɔbɛhwehwɛ asomdwoe akyi kwan nanso ɛbɛbɔ wɔn.
Ukwethuka kuyeza; bazadinga-ke ukuthula, kodwa kakuyikuba khona.
26 Atoyerɛnkyɛm bedi atoyerɛnkyɛm akyi aba; huhuhuhu bedi huhuhuhu akyi. Wɔbɛpɛ sɛ wobenya anisoadehu afi odiyifo no hɔ, asɔfo no nkyerɛkyerɛ a ɛfa mmara no ho no bɛbɔ wɔn, saa ara na wɔrennya afotu mfi mpanyimfo hɔ.
Incithakalo izakuza phezu kwencithakalo, lombiko ube phezu kombiko; khona bezadinga umbono kumprofethi, kodwa umlayo uzabhubha kumpristi, leseluleko kubadala.
27 Ɔhene no betwa adwo, ɔheneba no befura abawpa, na asase no so nnipa nsa bɛpopo. Me ne wɔn bedi no sɛnea wɔn nneyɛe te na megyina wɔn tebea so abu wɔn atɛn. Afei wobehu sɛ me ne Awurade no.’”
Inkosi izalila, lesiphathamandla sembathiswe incithakalo, lezandla zabantu belizwe zizathuthumela. Ngizakwenza kubo ngokwendlela yabo, ngibahlulele ngezahlulelo zabo; khona bezakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
