Kwadwom 1
1 Sɛnea kuropɔn no adan amamfo ni, kuropɔn a anka nnipa ahyɛ no ma! Adɛn nti na wayɛ okunafobea a kan no na anka ɔyɛ ɔkɛse wɔ amanaman no mu? Nea na ɔyɛ ɔhemmea wɔ amantam no mu no abɛyɛ afenaa nnɛ.
Haa! Mzinda uja wasiyidwa wokhawokha, umene kale unali wodzaza ndi anthu! Kale unali wotchuka pakati pa mitundu ya anthu! Tsopano wasanduka ngati mkazi wamasiye. Kale unali mfumukazi ya onse pa dziko lapansi, tsopano wasanduka kapolo.
2 Osu yayaayaw anadwo, nusu sensan nʼafono so. Nʼadɔfo nyinaa mu no, obiara nni hɔ a ɔkyekyee ne werɛ. Ne nnamfonom nyinaa ayi no ama Wɔayɛ nʼatamfo.
Ukulira mowawidwa mtima usiku wonse, misozi ili pa masaya pake. Mwa abwenzi ake onse, palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe womutonthoza. Abwenzi ake onse amuchitira chiwembu; onse akhala adani ake.
3 Amanehunu ne adwumaden akyi no, Yuda kɔ nnommum mu. Ɔte amanaman no mu na onni ahomegyebea. Wɔn a wɔtaa no nyinaa ato no wɔ nʼahokyere mu.
Yuda watengedwa ku ukapolo, kukazunzika ndi kukagwira ntchito yolemetsa. Iye akukhala pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina; ndipo alibe malo opumulira. Onse omuthamangitsa iye amupitirira, ndipo alibe kwina kothawira.
4 Akwan a ɛkɔ Sion no resu, efisɛ obiara nkɔ nʼafahyɛ ase. Nʼapon nyinaa adeda mpan, na nʼasɔfo si apini, ne mmabaa di yaw, na ɔwɔ yawdi a mu yɛ den mu.
Misewu yopita ku Ziyoni ikulira, chifukwa palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe akubwera ku maphwando ake. Zipata zake zonse zili pululu, ansembe akubuwula. Anamwali ake akulira, ndipo ali mʼmasautso woopsa.
5 Nʼatamfo abɛyɛ ne wuranom; wɔn a wɔne no ayɛ adɔm ho adwo wɔn. Awurade ama awerɛhow aba ne so nʼamumɔyɛ bebrebe nti. Ne mma kɔ nnommum mu. Wɔayɛ nneduafo ama ɔtamfo.
Adani ake asanduka mabwana ake; odana naye akupeza bwino. Yehova wamubweretsera mavuto chifukwa cha machimo ake ambiri. Ana ake atengedwa ukapolo pamaso pa mdani.
6 Anuonyam nyinaa atu afi Ɔbabea Sion so kɔ. Ne mmapɔmma ayɛ sɛ aforote a wonnya adidibea; na wɔde mmerɛwyɛ aguan wɔ wɔn ataafo anim.
Ulemerero wonse wa mwana wamkazi wa Ziyoni wachokeratu. Akalonga ake ali ngati mbawala zosowa msipu; alibe mphamvu zothawira owathamangitsa.
7 Nʼamanehunu ne akyinkyinakyinkyin nna mu no, Yerusalem kae ademude nyinaa a na ɛwɔ no wɔ nna a atwa mu no mu. Ne nkurɔfo kɔtɔɔ ɔtamfo no nsa mu no, na obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛboa no. Nʼatamfo de wɔn ani hwɛɛ no na wɔserew ne sɛe.
Pa masiku a masautso ndi kuzunzika kwake, Yerusalemu amakumbukira chuma chonse chimene mʼmasiku amakedzana chinali chake. Anthu ake atagwidwa ndi adani ake, panalibe aliyense womuthandiza. Adani ake ankamuyangʼana ndi kumuseka chifukwa cha kuwonongeka kwake.
8 Yerusalem ayɛ bɔne kɛse enti ne ho agu fi. Wɔn a wodi no ni no sopa no, efisɛ wɔahu nʼadagyaw; ɔno ankasa gu ahome na ɔdan nʼani.
Yerusalemu wachimwa kwambiri ndipo potero wakhala wodetsedwa. Onse amene ankamulemekeza pano akumunyoza, chifukwa aona umaliseche wake. Iye mwini akubuwula ndipo akubisa nkhope yake.
9 Nʼafideyɛ atu aka ne ntade mu; wannwene ne daakye ho. Nʼasehwe yɛ nwonwa; obiara ankyekye ne werɛ. “Awurade, hwɛ mʼamanehunu, efisɛ ɔtamfo adi nkonim.”
Uve wake umaonekera pa zovala zake; iye sanaganizire za tsogolo lake. Nʼchifukwa chake kugwa kwake kunali kwakukulu; ndipo analibe womutonthoza. “Inu Yehova, taonani masautso anga, pakuti mdani wapambana.”
10 Ɔtamfo no de ne nsa too nʼademude nyinaa so; ohuu sɛ amanaman rehyɛn ne kronkronbea hɔ, nnipa a woabra sɛ wɔnnhyɛn wʼasafo mu no.
Adani amulanda chuma chake chonse; iye anaona mitundu ya anthu achikunja ikulowa mʼmalo ake opatulika, amene Inu Mulungu munawaletsa kulowa mu msonkhano wanu.
11 Ne nkurɔfo nyinaa si apini bere a wɔrehwehwɛ aduan; wɔde wɔn ademude sesa aduan de nya ahoɔden. “Awurade, hwɛ na dwene me ho, efisɛ wobu me animtiaa.”
Anthu ake onse akubuwula pamene akufunafuna chakudya; asinthanitsa chuma chawo ndi chakudya kuti akhale ndi moyo. “Inu Yehova, taonani ndipo ganizirani, chifukwa ine ndanyozeka.”
12 “Ɛmfa mo ho ana, mo a mutwa mu wɔ hɔ nyinaa? Monhwɛ na munhu. Ɔyaw bi wɔ hɔ a ɛte sɛ me de a wɔma ɛbaa me so yi, nea Awurade de baa me so wɔ nʼabufuwhyew da no ana?
“Kodi zimenezi mukuziyesa zachabe, inu nonse mukudutsa? Yangʼanani ndipo muone. Kodi pali mavuto ofanana ndi amene andigwerawa, amene Ambuye anandibweretsera pa tsiku la ukali wake?
13 “Ɔsomaa ogya fii ɔsoro, ma ɛbaa me nnompe mu. Osum afiri maa mʼanan na ɔsan me kɔɔ mʼakyi. Ɔyɛɛ me pasaa, metɔɔ beraw da mu nyinaa.
“Anatumiza moto kuchokera kumwamba, unalowa mpaka mʼmafupa anga. Anayala ukonde kuti ukole mapazi anga ndipo anandibweza. Anandisiya wopanda chilichonse, wolefuka tsiku lonse.
14 “Woakyekyere me bɔne ahyɛ konnua mu; ɔde ne nsa nwen bɔɔ mu. Wɔde asɛn me kɔn mu na Awurade atwe mʼahoɔden. Ɔde me ahyɛ wɔn a merentumi nnyina wɔn anim no nsa.
“Wazindikira machimo anga onse ndipo ndi manja ake anawaluka pamodzi. Machimowa afika pakhosi panga, ndipo Ambuye wandithetsa mphamvu. Iye wandipereka kwa anthu amene sindingalimbane nawo.
15 “Awurade apo akofo a wɔwɔ me ntam nyinaa; wafrɛ asraafo atia me sɛ wɔmmɛdwerɛw me mmerante. Awurade atiatia Ɔbabea Ɔbabun Yuda so wɔ ne nsakyiamoa mu.
“Ambuye wakana anthu anga onse amphamvu omwe ankakhala nane: wasonkhanitsa gulu lankhondo kuti lilimbane nane, kuti litekedze anyamata anga; mʼmalo ofinyira mphesa Ambuye wapondereza anamwali a Yuda.
16 “Eyinom nti na misu na nusu aguare me. Obiara mmɛn a ɔbɛkyekye me werɛ, nea ɔbɛhyɛ me honhom den nni hɔ. Me mma agyigya efisɛ ɔtamfo no adi nkonim.”
“Chifukwa cha zimenezi ndikulira ndipo maso anga adzaza ndi misozi. Palibe aliyense pafupi woti anditonthoze, palibe aliyense wondilimbitsa mtima. Ana anga ali okhaokha chifukwa mdani watigonjetsa.
17 Sion trɛw ne nsa mu nanso obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛkyekye ne werɛ. Awurade ahyɛ ama Yakob se ne mfɛfo bɛyɛ nʼatamfo; Yerusalem abɛyɛ afide wɔ wɔn mu.
“Ziyoni wakweza manja ake, koma palibe aliyense womutonthoza. Yehova walamula kuti abale ake a Yakobo akhale adani ake; Yerusalemu wasanduka chinthu chodetsedwa pakati pawo.
18 “Awurade yɛ ɔtreneeni, nanso manni nʼahyɛde so. Muntie, mo amanaman nyinaa monhwɛ me yaw. Me mmerante ne mmabaa kɔ nnommum mu.
“Yehova ndi wolungama, koma ndine ndinawukira malamulo ake. Imvani inu anthu a mitundu yonse; onani masautso anga. Anyamata ndi anamwali anga agwidwa ukapolo.
19 “Mefrɛɛ mʼadɔfo nanso woyii me mae. Mʼasɔfo ne me mpanyimfo ase tɔree wɔ kuropɔn no mu, bere a wɔrehwehwɛ aduan adi na wɔanwuwu.
“Ndinayitana abwenzi anga koma anandinyenga. Ansembe ndi akuluakulu anga anafa mu mzinda pamene ankafunafuna chakudya kuti akhale ndi moyo.
20 “Awurade, hwɛ me mmɔbɔ! Meredi yaw wɔ me mu, na me koma mu nso minni ahotɔ, efisɛ mayɛ otuatewfo kɛse. Afoa hyɛ me awerɛhow wɔ abɔnten so; ofie nso yɛ owu nko ara.
“Inu Yehova, onani mmene ine ndavutikira! Ndikuzunzika mʼkati mwanga, ndipo mu mtima mwanga ndasautsidwa chifukwa ndakhala osamvera. Mʼmisewu anthu akuphedwa, ndipo ku mudzi kuli imfa yokhayokha.
21 “Nnipa ate mʼapinisi, nanso obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛkyekye me werɛ. Mʼatamfo nyinaa ate mʼamanehunu wɔn ani gye nea woayɛ no ho. Ma nna a woahyɛ no mmra sɛnea wɔbɛyɛ sɛ me.
“Anthu amva kubuwula kwanga, koma palibe wonditonthoza. Adani anga onse amva masautso anga; iwo akusangalala pa zimene Inu mwachita. Lifikitseni tsiku limene munalonjeza lija kuti iwonso adzakhale ngati ine.
22 “Fa wɔn atirimɔdensɛm nyinaa si wʼanim; na wo ne wɔn nni sɛnea wo ne me adi; esiane mʼamumɔyɛ no nti. Mʼapinisi dɔɔso na me koma abotow.”
“Lolani kuti ntchito zawo zoyipa zifike pamaso panu; muwalange ngati mmene mwandilangira ine chifukwa cha machimo anga onse. Ndikubuwula kwambiri ndipo mtima wanga walefuka.”
