Hesekiel 30
1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi, lisithi:
2 “Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm na ka sɛ: ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Twa adwo na ka sɛ, “Ao ɛda no!”
Ndodana yomuntu, profetha uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Qhinqani isililo: Maye ngalolosuku!
3 Na ɛda no abɛn, Awurade ɛda no abɛn, omununkum ɛda, amanaman no atemmuo berɛ.
Ngoba usuku luseduze, ngitsho usuku lweNkosi luseduze, usuku olulamayezi; kuzakuba yisikhathi sezizwe.
4 Akofena bi bɛba abɛtia Misraim, na ahoyera bɛba Kus so. Sɛ apirafoɔ totɔ wɔ Misraim a wɔbɛsoa nʼahonyadeɛ akɔ na wɔabubu ne fapem agu fam.
Lenkemba izafika eGibhithe, losizi luzakuba seEthiyophiya, lapho ababuleweyo bezakuwa eGibhithe; ngoba bazasusa ixuku layo, lezisekelo zayo zidilizelwe phansi.
5 Kus ne Put, Lidia ne Arabia nyinaa, Libia ne bɔhyɛ asase no so nnipa ne Misraim bɛtotɔ wɔ akofena ano.
IEthiyophiya, lePuti, leLudi, labo bonke abantu abahlanganisiweyo, leKhubi, labantwana belizwe lesivumelwano, bazakuwa ngenkemba kanye labo.
6 “‘Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “‘Misraim apamfoɔ bɛhwehwe ase na nʼahomasoɔ ahoɔden bɛdi no hwammɔ. Ɛfiri Migdol kɔsi Aswan wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ akofena a ɛwɔ ne mu no ano, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Yebo, abasekela iGibhithe bazakuwa, lokuzigqaja kwamandla ayo kuzakwehla; kusukela eMigidoli kuze kube seSevene bazakuwa kuyo ngenkemba, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
7 Wɔbɛdeda mpan wɔ nsase a ada mpan mu, na wɔn nkuropɔn bɛbubu aka nkuropɔn a abubu ho.
Njalo bazachitheka phakathi kwamazwe achithekileyo; lemizi yayo izakuba phakathi kwemizi engamanxiwa.
8 Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no, ɛberɛ a mede ogya ato Misraim mu na madwerɛ nʼaboafoɔ nyinaa.
Khona bezakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, sengibeke umlilo eGibhithe, lapho bonke abasizi bayo sebephuliwe.
9 “‘Saa ɛda no, asomafoɔ de ahyɛn bɛfiri me nkyɛn akɔhunahuna Kus a ne tirim yɛ no dɛ no. Ne ho bɛyera no wɔ Misraim Atemmuo da no, na ampa ara ɛbɛba mu.
Ngalolosuku izithunywa zizaphuma phambi kwami ngemikhumbi ukuyakwethusa amaEthiyophiya onwabileyo, losizi luzakuba phakathi kwabo osukwini lweGibhithe, ngoba, khangela, luyeza.
10 “‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Mede Misraim dɔm bebrebe no bɛba awieeɛ mɛfa Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar so.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Yebo, ngizaqeda ixuku leGibhithe ngesandla sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni.
11 Ɔno ne nʼakodɔm; amanaman no mu aniɛdenfoɔ, wɔde wɔn bɛba abɛsɛe asase no. Wɔbɛtwe wɔn akofena atia Misraim na wɔde afunu ahyɛ asase no so ma.
Yena, labantu bakhe kanye laye, abesabekayo bezizwe, bazalethwa ukuzachitha ilizwe; njalo bazahwatsha izinkemba zabo bemelene leGibhithe, bagcwalise ilizwe ngababuleweyo.
12 Mɛma Nil ho asutene awewe na matɔn asase no ama nipabɔne; menam ananafoɔ so bɛsɛe asase no ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa. Me Awurade na maka.
Njalo ngizakwenza imifula itshe, ngithengise ilizwe esandleni sabakhohlakeleyo, ngilichithe ilizwe lokugcwala kwalo ngesandla sabezizwe; mina Nkosi ngikhulumile.
13 “‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Mɛsɛe ahoni no na mede Memfis nsɛsodeɛ ahodoɔ aba awieeɛ. Misraim renya mmapɔmma bio, na mɛma ehu aba asase no so nyinaa.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngizabhubhisa lezithombe, ngiqede izifanekiso eNofi; njalo kakusayikuba khona isiphathamandla esivela elizweni leGibhithe; njalo ngizaletha ukwesaba elizweni leGibhithe.
14 Mɛsɛe Misraim Atifi, ato Soan mu ogya na matwe Tebes aso.
Ngenze iPatrosi ibe lunxiwa, ngibeke umlilo eZowani, ngenze izahlulelo eNo.
15 Mehwie mʼabufuhyeɛ agu Pɛlusum so Misraim banbɔ denden no, na matwa Tebes nnipa bebrebe no agu.
Ngithulule ulaka lwami phezu kweSini, amandla eGibhithe; ngiqume ixuku leNo.
16 Mɛto Misraim mu ogya; Pɛlusum de ɔyea bɛnukanuka ne mu. Ahum bɛbu afa Tebes so; na Memfis bɛdi abooboo ɛda biara.
Ngibeke umlilo eGibhithe; iSini izakuba lobuhlungu obukhulu; leNo izadatshulwa phakathi; leNofi izakhathazeka nsuku zonke.
17 Heliopolis ne Bubastis mmeranteɛ bɛtotɔ wɔ akofena ano, na nkuropɔn no ankasa bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu.
Amajaha eAvene lePhibhesethi azakuwa ngenkemba, lale imizi izakuya ekuthunjweni.
18 Esum kabii bɛduru Tapanhes ɛda no, sɛ mebubu Misraim kɔnnua no a; ɛhɔ na nʼahomasoɔ ahoɔden bɛba awieeɛ. Omununkum bɛkata ne so, na ne nkuraase bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu.
Njalo eThahaphanesi imini izakuba mnyama, lapho ngizakwephula khona amajogwe eGibhithe, lokuzikhukhumeza kwamandla ayo kuzaphela kiyo. Yona, iyezi lizayisibekela, lamadodakazi ayo azakuya ekuthunjweni.
19 Ɛno enti mɛtwe Misraim aso, na wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
Ngokunjalo ngizakwenza izahlulelo eGibhithe. Khona bezakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
20 Afe a ɛtɔ so dubaako no bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye, ngenyanga yokuqala, ngolwesikhombisa lwenyanga, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi, lisithi:
21 “Onipa ba, mabu Misraimhene Farao abasa mu. Wɔnkyekyereeɛ na atoa bio; na wɔmmfa nhyɛɛ ntoma bamma mu na anya ahoɔden a ɔde bɛsɔ akofena mu.
Ndodana yomuntu, ngiyephule ingalo kaFaro inkosi yeGibhithe; khangela-ke kayibotshwanga ukuthi kunikwe ukuphola, ukuthi kufakwe uhlaka lokuyibopha, ukuyiqinisela ukubamba inkemba.
22 Ɛno enti, Otumfoɔ Awurade na ɔseɛ: Mene Misraimhene Farao anya, mɛbu nʼabasa mmienu no mu; abasa a ɛyɛ ne deɛ a emu abuo no, na mama akofena afiri ne nsam atɔ fam.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngimelene loFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, njalo ngizakwephula ingalo zakhe, elamandla, laleyo eyephukileyo, ngenze inkemba iwe esandleni sakhe.
23 Mede Misraimfoɔ bɛkokɔ amanaman mu na mahwete wɔn agu nsase so.
Ngihlakazele amaGibhithe phakathi kwezizwe, ngiwasabalalisele emazweni.
24 Mɛhyɛ Babiloniahene basa mu den na mede mʼakofena ahyɛ ne nsa, nanso Farao deɛ, mɛbu nʼabasa mu, na wasi apinie wɔ nʼanim sɛ obi a wapira pirabɔne.
Ngiqinise ingalo zenkosi yeBhabhiloni, ngibeke inkemba yami esandleni sayo; kodwa ngizakwephula izingalo zikaFaro, abubule phambi kwayo ngokububula kogwaziweyo.
25 Mɛma Babiloniahene abasa mu ayɛ den, nanso Farao abasa bɛdwodwo asensɛn ne ho. Sɛ mede mʼakofena hyɛ Babiloniahene nsa na ɔma so tia Misraim a, wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
Kodwa ngizaqinisa ingalo zenkosi yeBhabhiloni, lengalo zikaFaro zizawela phansi; njalo bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, sengifake inkemba yami esandleni senkosi yeBhabhiloni, isiyelule phezu kwelizwe leGibhithe.
26 Mede Misraimfoɔ bɛkokɔ amanaman mu na mahwete wɔn agu nsase no so. Ɛno na wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
Njalo ngizahlakaza amaGibhithe phakathi kwezizwe, ngiwasabalalisele emazweni. Njalo bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
