< Yesaia 10 >

1 Wonnue, wɔn a wɔhyɛ mmara a ɛmfa ne kwan mu, wɔn a wɔhyɛ mmara dennen a ɛde nhyɛso ba,
Maye kwabamisa izimiso ezikhohlakeleyo, lakubabhali ababhala uhlupho;
2 de siw ahiafo ahofadi ho kwan, de atɛntrenee bɔ me nkurɔfo a wɔhyɛ wɔn so no atirimɔden. Wɔma akunafo yɛ amanehunufo na wɔbɔ ayisaa korɔn.
ukuphambula abayanga ekwahlulelweni, lokuphanga ilungelo labahluphekayo babantu bami, ukuze abafelokazi babe yimpango yabo lokuthi baphange izintandane!
3 Dɛn na mobɛyɛ wɔ akontaabu da no, bere a amanehunu fi akyirikyiri reba? Hena nkyɛn na mubeguan akɔpɛ mmoa? Ɛhefa na mubegyaw mo ahode?
Kodwa lizakwenzani ngosuku lwempindiselo, lencithakalweni ezavela khatshana? Lizabalekela kubani ukuthi libe losizo? Lizatshiya ngaphi udumo lwenu?
4 Ɛrenka mo hwee sɛ mobɛfra nneduafo mu anaasɛ mobɛtotɔ wɔ atɔfo mu. Nanso eyinom nyinaa akyi no ne bo nnwoo ɛ, na ne nsa da so wɔ soro.
Ngaphandle kwami bazakhothama ngaphansi kwezibotshwa, liwele ngaphansi kwababuleweyo. Kukho konke lokhu intukuthelo yayo kayiphenduki, kodwa isandla sayo silokhu seluliwe.
5 “Nnome nka Asiriani no, mʼabufuw abaa, nea okura mʼabufuwhyew pema no!
Maye kumAsiriya, intonga yentukuthelo yami, lolaka lwami luyinduku esandleni sabo!
6 Mesoma no akɔ ɔman a wonnim Onyankopɔn so migya no kwan ma wakɔ nnipa a wɔhyɛ me abufuw so sɛ wonkogye akorɔnne abran so na wonhuam afowde, na wontiatia wɔn so sɛ dɔte wɔ mmɔnten so.
Ngizamthumela isizwe esizenzisayo, ngizamlaya ukumelana labantu bolaka lwami, ukuphanga impango, lokuthumba okuthunjiweyo, lokukubeka kube ngokunyathelwayo njengodaka lwezitalada.
7 Nanso ɛnyɛ eyi ne nea ɔpɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɛnyɛ eyi ne nea ɛwɔ nʼadwene mu; ne botae ne sɛ ɔbɛsɛe, sɛ ɔde aman bebree bɛba wɔn awiei.
Kodwa yena kanakani njalo, lenhliziyo yakhe kayicabangi njalo; kodwa kusenhliziyweni yakhe ukuchitha, lokuquma izizwe ezingenlutshwana.
8 Na obisa se, ‘Ahemfo nyinaa nyɛ mʼasahene ana?
Ngoba uthi: Iziphathamandla zami zonke kazisimakhosi yini?
9 Kalno nyɛɛ sɛ Karkemis ana? Hamat nte sɛ Arpad na Samaria nte sɛ Damasko ana?
IKalino kayinjengeKarikemishi yini? IHamathi kayinjengeArpadi yini? ISamariya kayinjengeDamaseko yini?
10 Sɛnea migyee ahoni ahenni ahorow abran so, ahenni a wɔn nsɛsode sen nea ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Samaria no.
Njengoba isandla sami sithole imibuso yezithombe, ozithombe zayo ezibaziweyo zingcono kulezeJerusalema lakulezeSamariya;
11 Merentumi ne Yerusalem ne ne nsɛsode nni, sɛnea me ne Samaria ne nʼahoni dii no?’”
njengalokhu ngenzile kuyo iSamariya lezithombe zayo, kangiyikwenza njalo yini kuyo iJerusalema lezithombe zayo?
12 Sɛ Awurade wie nʼadwuma a etia Bepɔw Sion ne Yerusalem nyinaa a, ɔbɛka se, “Mɛtwe Asiriahene aso wɔ ne komapirim ne nʼani a ɛnsɔ ade no ho.
Kuzakuthi-ke lapho iNkosi isiqedile umsebenzi wayo wonke entabeni yeZiyoni laseJerusalema, ngiphindisele isithelo sokuzikhukhumeza kwenhliziyo yenkosi yeAsiriya lobuhle bokuziqhenya kwamehlo ayo.
13 Efisɛ ɔka se, “‘Mede mʼahoɔden na ayɛ eyi, na mifi me nyansa mu, efisɛ mewɔ nimdeɛ. Mesɛee aman aman ahye, mefow wɔn ademude; mebrɛɛ wɔn ahemfo ase te sɛ ɔbran.
Ngoba ithe: Ngamandla esandla sami ngikwenzile, langenhlakanipho yami, ngoba ngiyaqedisisa; njalo ngisusile imikhawulo yezizwe, ngaphanga inotho yazo; lanjengeqhawe ngehlisela phansi abahlali bazo.
14 Sɛnea obi teɛ ne nsa hyɛ berebuw mu no, saa ara nso na mɛteɛ me nsa wɔ amanaman no ahonyade so; sɛnea wɔtase nkesua a wɔagyaw hɔ no, saa ara na mɛboaboa amanaman no nyinaa ano; obiara ammɔ ne ntaban mu, na wammue nʼano ansu.’”
Isandla sami sesithole inotho yezizwe njengesidleke; lanjengobuthelela amaqanda atshiyiweyo, mina ngibuthelele umhlaba wonke; njalo kwakungekho ophaphazelisa impiko, kumbe ovula umlomo, kumbe otshiyozayo.
15 Abonnua ma ne ho so tra nea ɔtow, anaasɛ ɔwan hoahoa ne ho kyɛn nea ɔde no yɛ adwuma ana? Ayɛ te sɛnea abaa tumi dannan nea ɔmaa no so, anaasɛ poribaa tumi hinhim nea ɔnyɛ dua!
Ihloka lizazikhukhumeza kuye ogamula ngalo yini? Isaha izazikhulisa kuye oyinyikinyayo yini? Njengokungathi induku ingaziphakamisa, kungathi kayisisigodo.
16 Afei Awurade, Asafo Awurade, de ɔyaredɔm bɛbɔ nʼakofo ahoɔdenfo no; ne kɛseyɛ mu wobefita ogya mu ama adɛw te sɛ gyaframa.
Ngalokhu iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izathumela ukucaka phakathi kwabazimukileyo bayo; langaphansi kodumo lwayo izaphemba ukutshisa njengokutshisa komlilo.
17 Israel Hann no bɛdan ogya. Wɔn Kronkronni no bɛyɛ ogya a ɛdɛw; ɔde da koro bɛhyew na wasɛe ne nsɔe ne nnɛnkyɛnse.
Lokukhanya kukaIsrayeli kuzakuba ngumlilo, loNgcwele wakhe abe lilangabi, elizatshisa liqede ameva ayo lokhula lwayo oluhlabayo ngasuku lunye.
18 Ne kwae ne nʼasasebere anuonyam no, ɛbɛsɛe pasapasa te sɛ ɔyarefo a ɔrefɔn.
Liqede lodumo lwehlathi lwayo, lensimu yayo ethelayo, kusukela emphefumulweni kusiya enyameni, ibe njengokuphela kwamandla womthwalifulegi.
19 Nnua a ɛbɛka wɔ ne kwae mu bɛyɛ kakraa bi a abofra betumi akyerɛ ne dodow.
Lokuseleyo kwezihlahla zehlathi zayo kuzakuba nlutshwana ngenani, ukuze umntwana akubale.
20 Da no, Israel nkae, Yakob fifo a wɔbɛka no, remfa wɔn ho nto no so bio nea ɔbɔɔ wɔn hwee fam no; na mmom wɔde wɔn ho bɛto Awurade so nokware mu, Israel Kronkronni no.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku insali yakoIsrayeli labaphunyukileyo bendlu kaJakobe kabasayikuqhubeka ukweyama kobatshayileyo; kodwa bazakweyama eNkosini, oNgcwele kaIsrayeli, ngeqiniso.
21 Nkae bi bɛsan aba, Yakob nkae bi bɛsan aba Otumfo Onyankopɔn no nkyɛn.
Insali izabuyela, insali kaJakobe, kuNkulunkulu olamandla.
22 Israel, ɛwɔ mu sɛ wo nkurɔfo dɔɔso sɛ mpoano nwea de, nanso nkae bi pɛ na wɔbɛsan. Wɔahyɛ ɔsɛe ho mmara dennen a ebebunkam so na ɛteɛ.
Ngoba lanxa abantu bakho, Israyeli, bengangetshebetshebe lolwandle, kube kanti insali yabo izabuya; ukuchitheka kumisiwe, kuphuphuma ngokulunga.
23 Awurade, Asafo Awurade de ɔsɛe a wɔahyɛ ho mmara ketee na ɛbɛba asase no so nyinaa.
Ngoba ukubhujiswa okupheleleyo okumisiweyo iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izakwenza phakathi komhlaba wonke.
24 Enti sɛɛ na Awurade, Asafo Awurade se, “Me nkurɔfo a mote Sion, munnsuro Asiriafo no, wɔn a wɔde mmaa hwe mo na wɔma kontibaa so tia mo, sɛnea Misraim yɛe no.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova wamabandla: Bantu bami, elihlala eZiyoni, lingesabi iAsiriya lapho ilitshaya ngenduku, iliphakamisela intonga yayo njengendlela yamaGibhithe.
25 Ɛrenkyɛ koraa mʼabufuw a etia mo no ano bedwo na mʼanibere bɛkɔ wɔn sɛe so.”
Ngoba kuseyisikhatshana nje ukuthukuthela kuzaphela, lolaka lwami ekuchithweni kwabo.
26 Asafo Awurade de mpire bɛhwe wɔn, sɛnea ɔbɔɔ Midian hwee fam wɔ Oreb Ɔbotan ho no; na ɔbɛteɛ ne pema wɔ nsu no so, sɛnea ɔyɛɛ wɔ Misraim no.
Njalo iNkosi yamabandla izabavusela isiswepu, njengokuhlatshwa kweMidiyani edwaleni leOrebi; lanjengentonga yayo phezu kolwandle ezayiphakamisa njengendlela yeGibhithe.
27 Da no wobeyi wɔn adesoa no afi wɔn mmati so wɔn konnua afi wo kɔn mu; wobubu konnua no efisɛ woayɛ ɔbran yiye.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku umthwalo wayo usuke ehlombe lakho, lejogwe layo entanyeni yakho, lejogwe lizakwephulwa ngenxa yokugcotshwa.
28 Wɔhyɛn Ayat; wɔfa Migron; na wɔkora wɔn nneɛma wɔ Mikmas.
Uyeza eAyathi, udabula phakathi kweMigironi; eMikimashi wethula impahla yakhe.
29 Wɔfaa ɔtempɔn no so, na wɔka se, “Yɛbɛwɛn wɔ Geba anadwo yi.” Rama ho popo; Saulo kurow Gibea nso guan.
Badlula esikhaleni, ebusuku bayalala eGeba; iRama iyathuthumela; iGibeya kaSawuli iyabaleka.
30 Teɛ mu, Galim Babea! Tie, Laisa! Anatot Mmɔborɔni!
Hlaba umkhosi ngelizwi lakho, ndodakazi kaGalimi! Lizwakalise eLayishi, Anathothi elusizana!
31 Madmena reguan; Gebimfo kɔtetɛw.
IMadimena iyabaleka, abahlali beGebimi badinga isiphephelo.
32 Nnɛ ara wobegyina wɔ Nob; wobehim wɔn nsa wɔ Ɔbabea Sion bepɔw no so, wɔ Yerusalem koko no so.
Kuselamuhla uzakuma eNobi, anyikinye isandla sakhe emelene lentaba yendodakazi yeZiyoni, uqaqa lweJerusalema.
33 Hwɛ, Awurade, Asafo Awurade no, ɔde tumi kɛse betwitwa dua mman no. Wobebubu nnua atenten no agu fam nea ɛwowaree no bɛba fam.
Khangela, iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izaquma ingatsha ngamandla esabekayo, lalabo abaphakeme ngobude bazaganyulelwa phansi, labazikhukhumezayo bazathotshiswa.
34 Ɔde abonnua betwitwa kwaedɔtɔ agu fam Lebanon bɛhwe ase wɔ Ɔkɛse no anim.
Njalo izagamula izixuku zehlathi ngensimbi, leLebhanoni izakuwa ngolamandla.
