< Yesaia 60 >
1 “Sɔre, hyerɛn, na wo hann aba, na Awurade anuonyam apue wo so.
“Vuka, khazimula, ngoba ukukhanya kwakho sekufikile, lenkazimulo kaThixo iyavela phezu kwakho.
2 Hwɛ, sum akata asase so na sum kabii akata aman no so, nanso Awurade apue wo so na nʼanuonyam ada adi wɔ wo so.
Khangela, umnyama wembese umhlaba, umnyama omkhulu usibekele abantu. Kodwa uThixo uyakhanya phezu kwakho lenkazimulo yakhe iyabonakala phezu kwakho.
3 Amanaman bɛba wo hann no mu, na Ahemfo bɛba wo adekyee hann no mu.
Izizwe zizakuza ekukhanyeni kwakho, lamakhosi alande ukuqhama kokusa kwakho.
4 “Ma wʼani so na hwɛ wo ho hyia: wɔn nyinaa aboa wɔn ho ano reba wo nkyɛn; wo mmabarima fifi akyirikyiri, na wokura wo mmabea wɔ abasa so.
Phakamisa amehlo akho ukhangele amacele akho wonke: bonke babuthana beze kuwe; amadodana akho avela khatshana, lamadodakazi akho athwelwe ngengalo.
5 Afei wobɛhwɛ na wʼanim atew, wo koma bɛbɔ na anigye ahyɛ no ma; ahonya a ɛwɔ po so, wɔde bɛbrɛ wo, na amanaman no ahode nso bɛba wo nkyɛn.
Ngakho uzakhangela ubobotheke ngokujabula, inhliziyo yakho izatshaya ikhukhumale ngenxa yentokozo; inotho yasolwandle izalethwa kuwe, lenotho yezizwe izakuza kuwe.
6 Yoma akuwakuw bɛyɛ wʼasase so ma, yomaforo a wufi Midian ne Efa. Na wɔn a wofi Seba nyinaa bɛba, wɔsoso sika kɔkɔɔ ne nnuhuam na wɔpae mu ka Awurade ayeyi.
Imihlambi yamakamela izagcwala elizweni lakho, amakamela asakhulayo aseMidiyani lase-Efa. Wonke avela eShebha azakuza ethwele igolide lempepha ememezela udumo lukaThixo.
7 Wɔbɛboaboa Kedar nguankuw nyinaa ano abrɛ wo, Nebaiot adwennini bɛsom wo; wobegye wɔn sɛ afɔrebɔde wɔ mʼafɔremuka so, na mɛhyɛ mʼasɔredan kronkron no anuonyam.
Yonke imihlambi yaseKhedari izabuthelwa kuwe; inqama zaseNebhayothi zizakusiza; zizakwamukeleka njengeminikelo e-alithareni lami, njalo ngizahlobisa ithempeli lami elilodumo.
8 “Henanom ne eyinom a wotu sɛ omununkum, te sɛ mmorɔnoma a wɔrekɔ wɔn berebuw mu yi?
Ngobani laba abandiza njengamayezi lanjengamajuba esiya ezidlekeni zawo na?
9 Ampa ara asupɔw no ani da me so; Tarsis ahyɛn na wodi anim, wɔde wo mmabarima fifi akyirikyiri reba, wɔsoso wɔn dwetɛ ne wɔn sikakɔkɔɔ, de rebɛhyɛ Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn anuonyam, Israel Kronkronni No, efisɛ wahyɛ wo anuonyam.
Ngeqiniso izihlenge zithembe mina; ekhokheleyo yimikhumbi yaseThashishi, iletha amadodana akho avela khatshana, lesiliva sawo kanye legolide ukuba kudunyiswe uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho, oNgcwele ka-Israyeli, ngoba ukunike inkazimulo.
10 “Ananafo bɛto wʼafasu no bio, na wɔn ahemfo bɛsom wo. Ɛwɔ mu, mede abufuw asɛe wo de, nanso menam adom so behu wo mmɔbɔ.
Abezizwe bazayakha futhi imiduli yakho, lamakhosi abo azakukhonza. Lanxa ekuthukutheleni kwami ngakutshaya, kodwa ngomusa wami ngizakuba lesihawu kuwe.
11 Wo apon ano bɛdeda hɔ bere biara, wɔrentoto mu awia anaa anadwo, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a nkurɔfo de amanaman no ahonya bɛbrɛ wo, wɔn ahemfo dii nkonimdi santen no anim.
Amasango akho azahlala evulekile; kawayikuvalwa emini loba ebusuku ukuze abantu bakulethele inotho yezizwe, amakhosi azo ekhokhelwe ludwendwe lokunqoba.
12 Na ɔman anaa ahenni a wɔrensom wo no bɛyera, wɔbɛsɛe no pasaa.
Ngoba isizwe kumbe umbuso ongayikukukhonza uzatshabalala; uzachitheka uphele nya.
13 “Lebanon anuonyam bɛba wo nkyɛn, ɔpepaw, ɔsɛsɛ ne kwabɔhɔre bɛbɔ mu, abesiesie me kronkronbea hɔ; na mɛhyɛ beae a me nan sisi no anuonyam.
Udumo lwaseLebhanoni luzakuza kuwe; zonke izihlahla ezamaphayini, umfiri lomsiphresi, ukuzehlobisa indlu yami engcwele; lendawo yezinyawo zami ngizayenza ikhazimule.
14 Wo nhyɛsofo mmabarima bɛba abɛkotow wo; wɔn a wobu wo animtiaa nyinaa bɛkotow wʼanan ase na wɔbɛfrɛ wo Awurade Kuropɔn, Israel Kronkronni, Sion.
Amadodana abancindezeli bakho azakuza akhothame phambi kwakho; bonke abakweyisayo bazakhothamela phansi ezinyaweni zakho, njalo bazakubiza ngokuthi iDolobho likaThixo, iZiyoni yakhe oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
15 “Ɛwɔ mu, wɔapa wʼakyi atan wo, a obiara ntu kwan mfa wo mu, nanso mɛyɛ wo ahohoahoade a ɛte hɔ daa ne awo ntoatoaso nyinaa anigyede.
Lanxa ubulahliwe, uzondakala, kungekho ohamba edabula phakathi kwakho, ngizakwenza ube ligugu elingapheliyo, uthokozise izizukulwane zonke.
16 Wobɛnom amanaman nufusu no na woanum adehye nufu. Afei wubehu sɛ me Awurade, me ne wo Agyenkwa, wo gyefo, Yakob Tumfo no.
Uzanatha uchago lwezizwe, umunyiswe emabeleni asesikhosini. Lapho-ke uzakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo, uMsilisi wakho, uMhlengi wakho, uMninimandla kaJakhobe.
17 Mede sikakɔkɔɔ besi kɔbere anan mu abrɛ wo, na dwetɛ asi dade anan mu. Mede kɔbere besi dua anan mu abrɛ wo, na dade asi abo anan mu. Mede asomdwoe bɛyɛ wo so amrado na trenee ayɛ wo sodifo.
Esikhundleni sethusi ngizakulethela igolide, lesiliva esikhundleni sensimbi. Esikhundleni sezigodo ngizakulethela ithusi, lensimbi esikhundleni samatshe. Ngizakwenza ukuthula kube ngumbusi wakho, lokulunga kube yinkosi yakho.
18 Wɔrente awurukasɛm wɔ wʼasase so bio, anaa nnwiriwii ne ɔsɛe wɔ wʼahye so mmom wobɛfrɛ wʼafasu se Nkwagye ne wʼapon se Ayeyi.
Akusayikuba lodlakela elizweni lakho, akusayikuba khona ukuchitheka loba ukutshabalala phakathi kwelizwe lakini, kodwa uzakuthi imiduli yakho yiNsindiso, lamasango akho uthi yiNdumiso.
19 Owia renyɛ wo hann adekyee mu bio na ɔsram hann renhyerɛn wo so, efisɛ Awurade bɛyɛ wo daapem hann, na wo Nyankopɔn bɛyɛ wo anuonyam.
Ilanga kalisayikuba yikukhanya kwakho emini loba ukukhanya kwenyanga kukukhanyise, ngoba uThixo uzakuba yikukhanya kwakho okungapheliyo, loNkulunkulu wakho abe yinkazimulo yakho.
20 Wo wia rentɔ bio, wo sram rennum bio, Awurade bɛyɛ wo daapem hann, na wʼawerɛhownna to betwa.
Ilanga lakho kaliyikutshona futhi, lenyanga yakho ayisayikufiphala njalo. UThixo uzakuba yikukhanya kwakho okungapheliyo, lezinsuku zakho zezinsizi zizaphela.
21 Na afei wo nkurɔfo nyinaa bɛyɛ atreneefo na wɔbɛfa asase no adi so afebɔɔ. Wɔyɛ ade a madua na afefɛw me nsa ano adwuma a ɛbɛda mʼanuonyam adi.
Lapho-ke bonke abantu bakho bazakuba ngabalungileyo, lelizwe lizakuba lilifa labo kokuphela. Bangamahlumela engawahlanyelayo, umsebenzi wezandla zami, ukuba ngibonakalise inkazimulo yami.
22 Mo mu akumaa koraa bɛdɔ ayɛ apem, na aketewa no ayɛ ɔman kɛse. Mene Awurade; na ne bere mu, mɛyɛ eyi ntɛm so.”
Ingcosana yakho izakuba yinkulungwane, abancinyane bazakuba yisizwe esilamandla. Mina nginguThixo; ngesikhathi esifaneleyo lokhu ngizakwenza ngokuphangisa.”
