Yesaia 5
1 Mɛto dwom ama me dɔfo dwom a ɛfa ne bobeturo ho: Na me dɔfo wɔ bobe turo bi wɔ asasebere bi a ɛda bepɔw ani.
Ngizahlabelela lowo engimthandayo ingoma ngesivini sakhe: Othandwa yimi wayelesivini eqaqeni oluvundileyo.
2 Ofuntum asase no, yiyii mu abo, na oduaa bobe a ɛyɛ papa wɔ so. Osii ɔwɛn aban wɔ mfimfini na otuu nsakyiamoa nso. Afei ɔhwɛɛ anim sɛ obetwa bobe aba pa, nanso ɛsow aba bɔne.
Wasigebha, wasusa amatshe kuso, wahlanyela kuso amavini amahle. Wakha umphotshongo ophakemeyo phakathi kwaso njalo wagebha lesikhamelo sewayini kuso. Walindela izithelo ezinhle, kodwa amavini athela ezimbi kuphela.
3 “Afei mo a motete Yerusalem ne Yuda mmarima, mummu me ne me bobeturo ntam atɛn.
“Manje-ke lina abahlala eJerusalema lani madoda akoJuda, yahlulelani phakathi kwami lesivini sami.
4 Dɛn bio na anka ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ ma me bobeturo boro nea mayɛ yi so? Bere a merehwɛ anim sɛ minya bobe a eye no adɛn nti na ɛsow aba bɔne?
Kuyini okudlula lapho okwakumele kwenziwe esivinini sami engingakwenzanga kuso na? Lapho ngangilindele izithelo ezinhle kungani sona sathela ezimbi kuphela na?
5 Afei mɛka nea merebɛyɛ me bobeturo no akyerɛ wo: Meyi ho ban no afi hɔ, na wɔbɛsɛe no; mebubu ho ɔfasu, na wobetiatia so.
Khathesi-ke sengizalitshela engizakwenza esivinini sami: Ngizasusa uthango lwaso; sizadilizwa. Ngizabhidliza umduli waso, sizagxotshwa ngezinyawo.
6 Mɛma ayɛ asase a ɛda mpan a worenyiyi mu na wɔnyɛ so adwuma, ohwirem ne nsɔe benyin wɔ so. Mɛhyɛ omununkum na wantɔ osu angu so.”
Ngizasenza sibe liganga kungabikho ukuthenwa kumbe ukuhlakulwa; inkotha lameva kuzakhula kuso. Ngizalaya amayezi anganisi zulu kuso.”
7 Asafo Awurade bobeturo no yɛ Israelfi, na Yuda mmarima yɛ turo a nʼani gye ho. Ɔpɛɛ atɛntrenee nanso ohuu mogyahwiegu; ɔpɛɛ trenee nanso ɔtee mmɔborɔsu.
Isivini sikaThixo uSomandla yindlu ka-Israyeli; abantu bakoJuda bayinsimu eligugu kuye. Wayelindele okufaneleyo, kodwa wabona ukuchitheka kwegazi; endaweni yokulunga, wezwa ukukhala kosizi.
8 Nnome nka mo a mode ofi ka ofi ho na mugyigye mfuw bobɔ so kosi sɛ asase no bɛsa na ɛka mo nko ara wɔ asase no so.
Maye kini elengeza izindlu ngezindlu lihlanganise insimu ensimini kuze kusweleke indawo eseleyo, njalo lihlala lodwa elizweni.
9 Asafo Awurade apae mu aka ama mate: “Nokwarem, afi akɛse no bɛda mpan, na aban afɛɛfɛ no, obiara rentena mu.
UThixo uSomandla usetshilo ngisizwa wathi: “Ngeqiniso izindlu ezinengi zizakuba ngamanxiwa; ezinkulu ezinhle zisale zingaselamuntu ohlala kuzo.
10 Bobeturo kɛse pa ara no nsa kakraa bi na ebefi mu. Aba lita aduonu baako a wodua no wobenya so lita aduonu abien pɛ.”
Izindima ezilitshumi zesivini zizathela ifatshi elilodwa lewayini, ihomeri lenhlanyelo lithele ihefa lamabele.”
11 Wonnue, wɔn a wɔsɔre anɔpahema kɔhwehwɛ wɔn nsa akyi kwan wɔn a wosii pɛ anadwo kosi sɛ nsa bɛbow wɔn.
Maye kulabo abavuka ngovivi ekuseni begijimela ukunatha utshwala; abaqhubekayo kuze kube phakathi kobusuku baze badakwe butshwala.
12 Wɔbɔ sankuten ne bɛnta wɔ wɔn aponto ase, akasae, ne atɛntɛbɛn ne nsa, nanso wotwiri nea Awurade ayɛ, na wommu ne nsa ano adwuma.
Balamachacho lemihubhe emadilini abo, amagedla, imihlanga, lewayini, kodwa kabazinaki izenzo zikaThixo, akukho nhlonipho yomsebenzi wezandla zakhe.
13 Ɛno nti, me nkurɔfo bɛkɔ nnommum mu, efisɛ wonni ntease; ɔkɔm bekum wɔn mu atitiriw na osukɔm betware wɔn mu bebree.
Ngakho-ke abantu bami bazakuya ekuthunjweni ngenxa yokungazwisisi; izikhulu zabo zizabulawa yindlala lenengi labo lizakoma ngomhawu wamanzi.
14 Enti Owu bae nʼabogye mu na obue nʼanom bayaa; na mu na atitiriw ne dɔm no bɛkɔ wɔne wɔn a wɔsaw na wogye wɔn ani no. (Sheol h7585)
Ngakho indawo yabafileyo izakwelula imihlathi yayo, ikhamise umlomo wayo okungelamkhawulo; izikhulu zabo lenengi labo bawele phakathi labo bonke abaxokozelayo labazithokozisayo. (Sheol h7585)
15 Enti wɔbɛbrɛ onipa ase na wama adesamma abotow. Wɔbɛbrɛ ɔhantanni ase,
Abantu bazakwehliselwa phansi, abantu bazathobekiswa, amehlo abaziphakamisayo athotshiswe.
16 nanso Asafo Awurade atɛntrenee bɛma no so, na Ɔkronkron Nyankopɔn de ne trenee bɛda ne ho adi sɛ Ɔkronkronni.
Kodwa uThixo uSomandla uzaphakanyiswa ngokwahlulela kwakhe okuhle; ubungcwele bukaNkulunkulu buzabonakala ngokulunga kwakhe.
17 Afei nguan bɛkɔ adidi te sɛnea wɔwɔ wɔn adidibea; nguantenmma bedidi wɔ asikafo amamfo so.
Lapho-ke izimvu zizakudla angathi kusemadlelweni azo, amazinyane adle emanxiweni ezinothi.
18 Munnue, mo a mode nnaadaa nhoma twetwe bɔne, na mode nteaseɛnam ntampehama twetwe amumɔyɛ.
Maye kulabo abahudula isono ngentambo zenkohliso lobubi kungathi kungamagoda enqola,
19 Munnue, mo a moka se, “Onyankopɔn nyɛ ntɛm, ɔnyɛ nʼadwuma ntɛm sɛnea yebehu. Ma ɛmmɛn, Israel Ɔkronkronni no nhyehyɛe no mmra, sɛnea yebehu.”
kulabo abathi, “UNkulunkulu kaphangise, kaphangisise umsebenzi wakhe ukuze siwubone. Kalisondele icebo loNgcwele ka-Israyeli kalize ukuze silazi.”
20 Munnue, mo a mofrɛ bɔne sɛ papa na papa nso sɛ bɔne, mo a mode sum si hann anan mu na hann si sum anan mu, mo a mofrɛ nweenwen se dɛɛdɛ ne dɛɛdɛ se nweenwen.
Maye kulabo abathi okubi kuhle bathi okuhle kubi, ababeka umnyama esikhundleni sokukhanya; ukukhanya esikhundleni somnyama; ababeka okubabayo esikhundleni sokumnandi, okumnandi esikhundleni sokubabayo.
21 Munnue, mo a mubu mo ho anyansafo, mo ankasa ani so ne anitewfo mo ankasa ani so.
Maye kulabo abahlakaniphileyo emehlweni abo njalo besile ekuboneni kwabo.
22 Munnue mo a wɔfrɛ mo akatakyi wɔ nsanom mu ne ahoɔdenfo wɔ nsa afrafra mu.
Maye kulabo abangamaqhawe ekunatheni iwayini njalo bezintshantshu ekuhlanganiseni okunathwayo,
23 Mo a mugye adanmude, na mugyaa nea odi fɔ na mubu nea odi bem no fɔ.
abakhulula abalamacala ngenxa yokufunjathiswa. Kodwa banqabele abamsulwa imfanelo yabo.
24 Enti sɛnea ogyaframa hyew nwuraguanee na sare a awo yera wɔ ogyaframa mu no, saa ara na mo ntin bɛporɔw, na mo nhwiren nso atu akɔ sɛ mfutuma; efisɛ moapo Asafo Awurade mmara na moatwiri Israel Kronkronni no asɛm.
Ngakho-ke, njengalokhu umlilo utshisa inhlanga, utshani obomileyo buphelela phakathi kwamalangabi, ngokunjalo impande zabo zizabola. Lamaluba abo aphephuke njengothuli; ngoba bawalile umthetho kaThixo uSomandla balidelela ilizwi loNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
25 Enti Awurade abufuw aba ne nkurɔfo so, wama ne nsa so, na ɔde rebɔ wɔn ahwe fam. Mmepɔw no wosow, na afunu ayɛ sɛ mmɔnten so nwura. Nanso eyi nyinaa akyi, ne bo nnwoo ɛ, na ne nsa da so wɔ soro.
Ngakho ulaka lukaThixo luzavutha ebantwini bakhe; isandla sakhe siphakeme njalo uyabatshaya. Izintaba ziyanyikinyeka, izidumbu zabafileyo zinjengezibi ezindleleni. Ikanti kukho konke lokhu ulaka lwakhe kaluphelanga, isandla sakhe silokhu siphakanyisiwe.
26 Ɔma frankaa so ma akyirikyiri aman, ɔhyɛn abɛn de frɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ asase ano. Wɔn na wɔreba no, afrɛ so ne ntɛm so!
Uphakamisela izizwe ezikude uphawu, ubatshayela ikhwelo abasemaphethelweni omhlaba. Nampa besiza ngokuphangisa langejubane!
27 Wɔn mu biara mmmrɛ na onhintiw, obiara ntɔ nko na ɔnna; abɔso biara mu nnwow wɔ asen mu na mpaboa hama biara nso rentew.
Kakho omunye wabo odinwayo loba okhubekayo, kakho owozelayo kumbe olalayo, akukho bhanti elixegiswayo ekhalweni, akukho ntambo yenyathelo equmekileyo.
28 Wɔn agyan ano yɛ nnam, na wɔn tadua nyinaa ayɛ krado; wɔn apɔnkɔ tɔte te sɛ ɔtwɛrebo, wɔn nteaseɛnam nkyimii te sɛ mfɛtɛ.
Imitshoko yabo ibukhali, wonke amadandili abo agotshisiwe; amasondo amabhiza abo afana lelitshe elilukhuni, amavili ezinqola zabo zokulwa anjengesivunguzane.
29 Wɔn mmobɔmu te sɛ gyata de, na wɔbobɔ mu sɛ gyatamma; wɔbobɔ mu kyere wɔn hanam na wɔde no kɔ a ogyefo biara nni hɔ.
Ukubhonga kwabo kufana lokwesilwane, babhonga njengezilwane ezikhulayo, bayabhavuma lapho bebamba inyamazana edliwayo, babaleke layo kungekho ongabemuka.
30 Da no wɔbɛbobɔ mu agu no so sɛnea po woro so no. Na sɛ obi hwɛ asase no a, obehu sum kabii ne ahohiahia; omununkum bɛma hann aduru sum.
Ngalolosuku bazabhavumela phezu kwayo njengokubhavuma kolwandle. Njalo nxa umuntu ekhangela ilizwe, uzabona umnyama losizi; lelanga lizakwenziwa libe mnyama ngamayezi.
