< Sakaria 6 >
1 Memaa mʼani so bio, na mihuu nteaseɛnam anan a efi mmepɔw abien ntam reba, mmepɔw no yɛ kɔbere mfrafrae.
Ngaphinde ngaphakamisa amehlo njalo phambi kwami kwakulezinqola zempi ezine ziqhamuka okhalweni lwezintaba ezimbili, izintaba zethusi!
2 Teaseɛnam a edi kan no, na apɔnkɔ kɔkɔɔ na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ tuntum nso twe nea ɛto so abien no.
Inqola yakuqala yayilamabhiza abomvu, eyesibili ilamnyama,
3 Nea ɛto so abiɛsa no, na apɔnkɔ fitaa na wɔtwe. Nea ɛto so anan no, na apɔnkɔ ntokontrama na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ no nyinaa ho yɛ den.
eyesithathu amhlophe, eyesine alamabala, wonke elamandla.
4 Mibisaa ɔbɔfo a na ɔne me rekasa no se, “Me wura, eyinom yɛ dɛn?”
Ngayibuza ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami ngathi, “Kuyini lokhu, nkosi yami?”
5 Ɔbɔfo no buaa me se, “Eyinom yɛ ahonhom anan a wofi ɔsoro, na wɔrefi wiase nyinaa Awurade no anim akɔ.
Ingilosi yangiphendula yathi, “Le yimimoya emine yasezulwini, ephumayo ekumeni phambi kukaThixo womhlaba wonke.
6 Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ tuntum retwe no rekɔ ɔman a ɛwɔ atifi fam no so. Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ fitaa retwe no rekɔ atɔe fam; na nea apɔnkɔ ntokontrama twe no rekɔ anafo fam.”
Le elamabhiza amnyama iqonda elizweni elisenyakatho, eyawamhlophe iqonda entshonalanga, kuthi eyawamabala iqonda eningizimu.”
7 Apɔnkɔ ahoɔdenfo no fii adi no, wɔpɛɛ sɛ wɔkɔ asase nyinaa so. Na ɔbɔfo no kae se, “Monkɔ asase nyinaa so!” Enti wɔkɔɔ asase so mmaa nyinaa.
Kwathi lawomabhiza alamandla esephuma ayesadalala ezama ukuya kuwo wonke umhlaba. Yathi kuwo, “Hambani kuwo wonke umhlaba.” Lakanye aya kuwo wonke umhlaba.
8 Afei ɔfrɛɛ me se, “Hwɛ, wɔn a wɔrekɔ atifi fam man so no ama me Honhom ahomegye wɔ atifi fam asase no so.”
Yase ingibiza yathi, “Uyabona, lawana aqonda elizweni elisenyakatho asenike uMoya wami ukuphumula elizweni lasenyakatho.”
9 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn. Ɔkae se,
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lathi:
10 “Gye sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ fi wɔn a wɔatwa wɔn asu, Heldai, Tobia ne Yedaia a wofi Babilonia aba no nkyɛn. Da no ara kɔ Sefania babarima Yosia fi.
“Thatha isiliva legolide kwabathunjiweyo uHelidayi loThobhiya loJedaya asebebuyile eBhabhiloni. Hamba ngalelolanga endlini kaJosiya indodana kaZefaniya.
11 Gye dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ na fa yɛ ahenkyɛw, hyɛ ɔsɔfopanyin Yosua a ɔyɛ Yehosadak babarima no ti.
Thatha isiliva legolide wenze umqhele uwethese umphristi omkhulu uJoshuwa indodana kaJozadaki.
12 Ka kyerɛ no se, sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: ‘Ɔbarima a wɔfrɛ no Dubaa no ni, na ɔbɛfefɛw afi hɔ akosi Awurade asɔredan no.
Umtshele ukuthi nanku okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Nansi indoda obizo layo liHlumela, njalo uzahluma endaweni yakhe akhe ithempeli likaThixo.
13 Ɔno na obesi Awurade asɔredan no, na wɔbɛhyɛ no anuonyam, na ɔbɛtena nʼahengua so adi ne hene, na ɔbɛyɛ ɔsɔfo wɔ nʼahengua so. Afei asomdwoe bɛba abien no ntam.’
Nguye ozakwakha ithempeli likaThixo, njalo uzagqokiswa ubukhosi, futhi uzahlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. Njalo uzakuba ngumphristi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. Lokhu kokubili kuzahambelana kuhle.’
14 Wɔde ahenkyɛw no bɛma Heldai, Tobia, Yedaia ne Sefania babarima Hen, na wɔde ayɛ nkae ade wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
Umqhele uzaphiwa uHelidayi, loThobhiya, loJedaya kanye loHeni indodana kaZefaniya njengesikhumbuzo ethempelini likaThixo.
15 Wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri no bɛba abɛboa Awurade asɔredan no si, na mubehu sɛ Asafo Awurade na wasoma me mo nkyɛn. Sɛ moyɛ osetie ma Awurade mo Nyankopɔn nokware mu a, eyi bɛba mu.”
Labo abasekudeni bazakuza bazakwelekelela ukwakha ithempeli likaThixo njalo lizakwazi ukuthi uthixo uSomandla ungithumile kini. Lokhu kuzakwenzeka nxa limlalela ngokukhuthala uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.”
