Yesaia 41
1 “Monyɛ komm wɔ mʼanim, mo nsupɔw! Ma aman no nhyɛ wɔn ho den! Ma wɔmmra ha mmɛkasa; momma yɛmmɔ mu nhyia wɔ asennii hɔ.
“Musirike mumpulirize mmwe ebizinga, amawanga gaddemu amaanyi. Mwetegeke okuleeta emisango gyammwe mu mbuga mujja kufuna obwogerero. Tukuŋŋaane tulabeko omutuufu.
2 “Hena na wakanyan nea ofi apuei no, afrɛ no trenee mu sɛ ɔmmɛsom no? Ɔde aman hyɛ ne nsa na ɔbrɛ ahemfo ase wɔ nʼanim. Ɔde nʼafoa ma wɔdan mfutuma, ɔde ne bɛmma ma wɔdan ntɛtɛ a mframa bɔ hwete.
“Ani eyayita omuweereza we okuva mu buvanjuba, eyamuyita akole emirimu gye amuweereze mu butuukirivu? Ani eyamuwa obuwanguzi ku bakabaka ne ku mawanga, n’abafuula ng’enfuufu n’ekitala kye, obusaale bwe ne bubafuula ebisasiro ebitwalibwa empewo?
3 Ɔtaa wɔn na ɔkɔ nʼanim a biribiara nti ne ho, wɔ kwan a ɔmfaa so da no so.
N’agenda ng’abagoba embiro n’ayita bulungi mu makubo ebigere bye gye by’ali bitayitanga.
4 Hena na wayɛ eyi akosi awiei, afrɛ awo ntoatoaso afi mfiase? Me Awurade, meka adikanfo ne akyikafo ho, Mene ɔno ara.”
Ani eyakola kino ng’ayita emirembe gy’abantu okuva ku lubereberye? Nze Mukama ow’olubereberye era ow’enkomerero, nze wuuyo.”
5 Nsupɔw no ahu na wɔbɔ hu; nsase ano ho popo. Wotwiw bɛn, na wɔba anim;
Ebizinga by’alaba ne bitya; n’ensi yonna n’ekankana: baasembera kumpi ne batuuka.
6 na obiara boa ne yɔnko na ɔka kyerɛ ne nua se, “Yɛ den!”
Buli muntu yayamba muliraanwa we ng’agamba nti; “Guma omwoyo!”
7 Odwumfo hyɛ sikadwumfo nkuran, na nea ɔde asae yɛ no trontrom boa nea ɔbɔ atommo so. Ɔka fa nea ɔsɔw no ho se, “Eye pa ara.” Ɔbobɔ ohoni no mu nnadewa sɛnea ɛrentu nhwe fam.
Awo omubazzi n’agumya omuweesi wa zaabu omwoyo, n’oyo ayooyoota n’akayondo n’agumya oyo akuba ku luyijja ng’ayogera ku kyuma ekigatta nti, “Nga kirungi,” era ne bakikomerera n’emisumaali kireme okusagaasagana.
8 “Nanso wo, Israel, me somfo, Yakob, nea mayi no no, mo, mʼadamfo Abraham asefo.
“Naye ggwe Isirayiri omuweereza wange, Yakobo gwe nalonda, ezzadde lya Ibulayimu mukwano gwange,
9 Mefaa wo fii nsase ano, fii nʼakyirikyiri ntwea so, na mefrɛɛ wo. Mekae se, ‘Woyɛ me somfo’; mapaw wo na mempoo wo ɛ.
ggwe, gwe naggya ku nkomerero y’ensi ne nkuyita okuva mu bitundu by’ensi ebikomererayo ddala, ne nkugamba nti, ‘Oli muddu wange,’ nze nakulonda so sikusuulanga:
10 Enti nsuro, na mene wo wɔ hɔ; mma wo werɛ nhow, na mene wo Nyankopɔn. Mɛhyɛ wo den, na mɛboa wo; mede me trenee nsa nifa bɛma wo so.
Totya kubanga nze ndi wamu naawe; tokeŋŋentererwa, kubanga nze Katonda wo. Nnaakuwanga amaanyi. Wewaawo nnaakuyambanga n’omukono ogwa ddyo ogw’obutuukirivu bwange.”
11 “Wɔn a wɔn bo afuw wo no nyinaa, ampa ara wɔn ani bewu na wɔn anim agu ase; wɔn a wɔsɔre tia wo no rensɛ hwee na wobewuwu.
“Laba, abo bonna abakukambuwalidde balikwatibwa ensonyi ne balaba ennaku. Abo abakuwakanya balifuuka ekitagasa ne baggwaawo.
12 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ wobɛhwehwɛ wʼatamfo de, nanso worenhu wɔn. Wɔn a wotu wo so sa no rensɛ hwee koraa.
Olibanoonya abo abaakukijjanyanga naye n’otobalaba. Abo abaakulwanyisanga baliggwaamu ensa.
13 Na mene Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, nea okura wo nsa nifa mu na ɔka kyerɛ wo se, Nsuro; mɛboa wo.
Kubanga nze Mukama Katonda wo akukwata ku mukono ogwa ddyo, nze nkugamba nti, Totya nze nzija kukuyamba.
14 Nsuro, osunson Yakob, Israel a wusua, na me ankasa mɛboa wo,” Awurade na ose, wo gyefo, Israel Ɔkronkronni no.
Wadde ng’oli lusiriŋŋanyi totya, ggwe Isirayiri, kubanga nnaakuyamba,” bw’ayogera Mukama Omununuzi wo, Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
15 “Hwɛ, mede wo bɛyɛ nhuwso apa, a ɛyɛ amono, ano yɛ nnam na ɛwɔ ɛse bebree. Wubehuhuw mmepɔw no so na woadwiriw wɔn, na woama nkoko ayɛ sɛ ntɛtɛ.
“Laba ndikufuula ng’ekyuma ekiggya ekisala ennyo, ekyogi eky’amannyo amangi. Muliwuula ensozi ne muzimementulira ddala, obusozi ne mubufuula ebisusunku.
16 Wubehuhuw wɔn so, mframa bɛma wɔn so, na ahum abɔ wɔn akɔ. Nanso wʼani begye wɔ Awurade mu na woahyɛ Israel Ɔkronkronni no anuonyam.
Oliziwewa empewo n’ezifuumula, embuyaga ezifuumuka zizisaasaanye. Era naawe olisanyukira mu Mukama, era mu Mutukuvu wa Isirayiri mw’olyenyumiririza.”
17 “Ohiani ne mmɔborɔni kyin pɛ nsu, nanso bi nni hɔ; osukɔm ama wɔn tɛkrɛma so ayow. Nanso me Awurade, mɛma wɔn mmuae. Me, Israel Nyankopɔn, merennyaw wɔn.
“Abaavu n’abali mu bwetaavu bwe baneetaganga amazzi ne baganoonya naye ne gababula, ate nga ennimi zaabwe zikaze, nze Mukama ndibawulira, nze Katonda wa Isirayiri siribaleka.
18 Mɛma nsubɔnten ateɛ wɔ sorɔnsorɔmmea a awu no so, na nsuti apue wɔ abon mu. Mɛdan nweatam ayɛ no mmura, na nsase a awo adan nsuti bebree.
Ndikola emigga ku busozi obutaliiko kantu, era n’ensulo wakati mu biwonvu. Olukoola ndirufuula ennyanja, n’eddungu lirivaamu enzizi z’amazzi.
19 Meduadua wɔ nweatam so, sida, ɔkanto, ohuam ne ngonnua. Meduadua ɔpepaw wɔ asase wosee so asɛsɛ ne kwabɔhɔre abɔ mu,
Ndisimba mu lukoola omuvule ne akasiya, omumwanyi n’omuzeyituuni, ate nsimbe mu ddungu enfugo n’omuyovu awamu ne namukago.
20 sɛnea nnipa behu na wɔate, na wɔasusuw ho na wɔate ase sɛ, Awurade nsa na ayɛ saa ade yi, Israel ɔkronkronni no na ɔma ɛbae.
Abantu balyoke balabe bamanye, balowooze era batuuke bonna okutegeera nti omukono gwa Mukama gwe gukoze kino, nti Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri yakikoze.”
21 “Bɔ wo nkuro,” Awurade na ose. “Kyerɛkyerɛ wʼasɛm mu,” Yakob Hene na ose.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda gye muli mmwe nti, “Mmwe bakatonda baamawanga, mujje nammwe mwogere. Muleete ensonga zammwe tuziwulire,” bw’ayogera Kabaka wa Yakobo.
22 “Fa wʼahoni no bra na wɔmmɛka nea ebesi nkyerɛ yɛn. Wɔmmɛka sɛnea na kan nneɛma no te nkyerɛ yɛn, sɛnea yebedwen ho afa na yɛahu nea ebefi mu aba. Anaasɛ wɔmpae mu nka nneɛma a ebesi nkyerɛ yɛn.
“Baleete bakatonda bwabwe batubuulire ebigenda okubaawo. Batubuulire n’ebyaliwo emabega, tusobole okubimanya, n’okubirowoozaako n’okumanya ebinaavaamu oba okutubuulira ebigenda okujja.
23 Monka yɛn nea ebesi daakye, na ama yɛahu sɛ moyɛ anyame. Monyɛ biribi, sɛ eye anaa enye, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yɛn werɛ bɛhow na ehu aka yɛn.
Mutubuulire ebigenda okubaawo tulyoke tumanye nga muli bakatonda. Mubeeko kye mukola ekirungi oba ekibi tulyoke tutye era tukeŋŋentererwe mu mutima.
24 Nanso, monnka hwee, na mo nnwuma so nni mfaso; nea ɔfa mo no yɛ akyiwade.
Laba, temuliiko bwe muli ne bye mukola tebigasa. Abo ababasinza bennyamiza.
25 “Makanyan obi a ofi atifi fam na ɔreba, nea ofi owia apuei na ɔbɔ me din. Otiatia ahemfo so te sɛ dɔte a wɔde si dan, te sɛ ɔnwemfo a ɔrewɔw dɔte.
Nonze omuntu alifuluma mu bukiikakkono akoowoola erinnya lyange, abeera mu buvanjuba. Alirinnyirira abafuzi ng’asamba ettaka, abe ng’omubumbi asamba ebbumba.
26 Hena na ɔkaa eyi ho asɛm fii mfiase, sɛnea anka ɛbɛma yɛahu, anaa waka ato hɔ, sɛnea yebetumi aka se, ‘Ne de no ye’? Obiara anka eyi, obiara anni kan anka, obiara ante nsɛm biara amfi wo nkyɛn.
Ani eyakyogera nti kiribeerawo tulyoke tumanye, eyakyogera edda tulyoke tugambe nti, ‘Wali mutuufu?’ Tewali n’omu yakyogerako, tewali n’omu yakimanya era tewali n’omu yawulira kigambo na kimu okuva gye muli.
27 Me na midii kan ka kyerɛɛ Sion, ‘Hwɛ, woni!’ Memaa Yerusalem ɔsomafo a ɔde asɛmpa ba.
Nasooka okubuulira Sayuuni era ne mpeereza omubaka e Yerusaalemi ababuulire amawulire amalungi.
28 Mehwɛ, nanso obiara nni hɔ, obiara nni wɔn mu a obetu wɔn fo, sɛ mibisa wɔn a, obiara ntumi mma mmuae.
Naye tewali n’omu mu bakatonda bammwe eyabategeeza kino. Tewali n’omu awa bigambo biruŋŋamya, tewali n’omu addamu bwe mbuuza.
29 Hwɛ, wɔn nyinaa yɛ atorofo! Wɔn nneyɛe nka hwee; wɔn nsɛsode yɛ mframa ne basabasayɛ nko ara.
Laba, bonna temuli nsa! Bye bakola byonna tebigasa. Ebifaananyi byabwe byonna ebibajje, mpewo na butaliimu.”
