9 Mfasoɔ bɛn na odwumayɛfoɔ nya firi nʼadwumaden mu?
Ulenzuzo bani osebenzayo kwatshikatshika kikho?
10 Mahunu adesoa a Onyankopɔn de ato nnipa so.
Ngiwubonile umsebenzi uNkulunkulu awunike abantwana babantu ukuthi baphatheke ngawo.
11 Wayɛ biribiara fɛfɛ wɔ ne berɛ mu. Ɔde nkwa a ɛnsa da ahyɛ nnipa akoma mu, nanso wɔntumi nte deɛ Onyankopɔn ayɛ firi ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no ase.
Konke ukwenze kwaba kuhle ngesikhathi sakho; wasebeka iphakade enhliziyweni yabo, ukuze kungabi lomuntu ongafumana umsebenzi uNkulunkulu awenzayo kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekucineni.
12 Menim sɛ biribiara nni hɔ a ɛyɛ ma nnipa kyɛn sɛ wɔbɛgye wɔn ani na wayɛ deɛ ɛyɛ ɛberɛ a wɔte ase.
Ngiyazi ukuthi kakukho okuhle kubo ngaphandle kokuthokoza lokwenza okuhle empilweni yakhe.
13 Sɛ obiara bɛdidi na wanom na wanya anigyeɛ wɔ ne dwumadie nyinaa mu, yei ne Onyankopɔn akyɛdeɛ.
Futhi lokuthi wonke umuntu adle anathe akholise okuhle ngomtshikatshika wakhe wonke, kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu.
14 Menim sɛ biribiara a Onyankopɔn yɛ no bɛtena hɔ daa, wɔrentumi mfa biribi nka ho na wɔrentumi nyi biribi mfiri mu. Onyankopɔn yɛ yei sɛdeɛ nnipa de anidie bɛma no.
Ngiyazi ukuthi konke uNkulunkulu akwenzayo kuzakuba khona phakade; kakukho okuzakwengezelelwa kukho, njalo kakukho okuzaphungulwa kukho; uNkulunkulu wakwenza ukuze besabe phambi kwakhe.
15 Biribiara a ɛwɔ hɔ ɛnnɛ no, aba pɛn, na deɛ ɛbɛba no nso aba dada; na Onyankopɔn bɛfrɛ deɛ asi dada no ama akontabuo.
Lokho okwakukhona kukhona khathesi, lalokho okuzakuba khona sekuvele kukhona; njalo uNkulunkulu ufuna okuxotshiweyo.
16 Na mehunuu biribi foforɔ wɔ owia yi ase sɛ: Amumuyɛsɛm wɔ deɛ atemmuo wɔ, atɛnteneneebea no, amumuyɛsɛm wɔ hɔ.
Futhi ngasengibona ngaphansi kwelanga indawo yokwahlulela, kwakukhona ububi lapho; lendawo yokulunga, kwakukhona ububi lapho.
17 Medwenee wɔ mʼakomam sɛ, “Onyankopɔn bɛbu teneneefoɔ ne amumuyɛfoɔ nyinaa atɛn, ɛfiri sɛ adwuma biara bɛnya ne berɛ, adeyɛ biara ne ne berɛ.”
Ngathi mina enhliziyweni yami: UNkulunkulu uzakwahlulela olungileyo lomubi, ngoba kukhona lapho isikhathi sayo yonke indaba lesawo wonke umsebenzi.
18 Afei medwenee sɛ, “Nnipa deɛ, Onyankopɔn sɔ wɔn hwɛ ma wɔhunu sɛ wɔte sɛ mmoa.
Ngathi mina enhliziyweni yami ngesimo sabantwana babantu ukuthi uNkulunkulu abatshengise obala ukuthi babone ukuthi bona uqobo bazinyamazana.
19 Onipa hyɛberɛ te sɛ mmoa deɛ, na ɛda hɔ ma wɔn nyinaa. Sɛdeɛ ɔbaako wuo no, saa ara na ɔfoforɔ nso wuo. Wɔn nyinaa wɔ ahomeɛ baako; onipa nni biribi a ɔde kyɛn aboa. Biribiara yɛ ahuhudeɛ.
Ngoba okwehlela abantwana babantu kwehlela lezinyamazana; njalo yinye into ebehlelayo; njengoba omunye esifa, ngokunjalo enye iyafa; yebo konke kulomoya munye, lomuntu kalakho angadlula ngakho inyamazana; ngoba konke kuyize.
20 Wɔn nyinaa kɔ faako; wɔn nyinaa firi dɔteɛ mu na wɔsane kɔ dɔteɛ mu.
Konke kuya endaweninye; konke kuvela ethulini, njalo konke kubuyela ethulini.
21 Hwan na ɔnim sɛ onipa honhom foro soro, na aboa deɛ siane kɔ asase mu anaa?”
Ngubani owazi umoya wabantwana babantu owenyukela phezulu, lomoya wenyamazana owehlela phansi emhlabathini?
22 Enti mehunuu sɛ biribiara nni hɔ a ɛyɛ ma onipa kyɛn sɛ nʼani bɛka nʼadwuma ho, ɛfiri sɛ ɛno ne ne kyɛfa. Na hwan na ɔbɛtumi de no asane aba sɛ ɔmmɛhwɛ deɛ ɛbɛsi ne wuo nʼakyi?
Ngakho ngabona ukuthi kakukho okungcono okwedlula ukuthi umuntu azithokozise ngemisebenzi yakhe, ngoba lokhu kuyisabelo sakhe. Ngoba ngubani ongamletha ukuthi abone lokho okuzakuba khona emva kwakhe?
