Hesekiel 9
1 Afei metee sɛ ɔde nne kɛseɛ team sɛ, “Momfa kuropɔn no awɛmfoɔ no mmra ha, a obiara kura akodeɛ.”
Wasememeza ezindlebeni zami ngelizwi elikhulu esithi: Yenza ababonisi bomuzi basondele, ngitsho wonke umuntu elesikhali sakhe sokuchitha esandleni sakhe.
2 Mehunuu sɛ mmarimma baasia firi atifi ɛpono a ɛkyerɛ atifi fam reba, na obiara kura kɔdiawuo akodeɛ. Na ɔbarima bi a ɔfira nwera na atwerɛdeɛ bɔtɔ bɔ ne nkyɛn mu ka wɔn ho. Wɔba bɛgyinaa kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia no ho.
Khangela-ke, amadoda ayisithupha eza evela ngendlela yesango eliphezulu elikhangele ngasenyakatho; njalo wonke umuntu elesikhali sakhe sokuphahlaza esandleni sakhe; njalo umuntu oyedwa phakathi kwawo wayegqoke ilembu elicolekileyo, elophondo lweyinki lombhali ngasokhalweni lwakhe; asengena, ema duze kwelathi lethusi.
3 Na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam pagyaa ne ho firi Kerubim no so, baabi a na anka ɛwɔ no, kɔɔ asɔredan no ɛkwan ano. Afei Awurade frɛɛ ɔbarima a na ɔfira nwera na atwerɛdeɛ bɔtɔ bɔ ne nkyɛn mu no
Lenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli yenyuka isuka ngaphezu kwekherubhi eyayiphezu kwalo, yaya embundwini wendlu; wasememeza umuntu owayegqoke ilembu elicolekileyo owayelophondo lweyinki lombhali okhalweni lwakhe.
4 ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Nante fa Yerusalem kuropɔn nyinaa mu na fa ahyɛnsodeɛ keka wɔn a wosu na wodi awerɛhoɔ wɔ akyiwadeyɛ a ɛkɔ so nyinaa ho no moma so.”
INkosi yasisithi kuye: Dabula phakathi komuzi, phakathi kweJerusalema, ufake uphawu emabunzini abantu ababubulayo labakhalayo ngenxa yazo zonke izinengiso ezenziwa phakathi kwawo.
5 Meretie no, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn a aka no sɛ, “Monni nʼakyi mfa kuropɔn no mu na monkunkum, a monnkyerɛ ahummɔborɔ anaa tema biara.
Lakwabanye yathi endlebeni yami: Dabulani phakathi komuzi emva kwakhe, litshaye, ilihlo lenu lingahawukeli, njalo lingayekeli.
6 Monkunkum nkɔkoraa, mmeranteɛ ne mmaayewa, mmaa ne mmɔfra, nanso mommfa mo nsa nka obi a ɔwɔ ahyɛnsodeɛ no. Momfiri aseɛ wɔ me kronkronbea hɔ.” Enti wɔde mpanimfoɔ a wɔwɔ asɔredan no anim no hyɛɛ aseɛ.
Bulalani ngokuchitha abadala, abatsha, lezintombi, labantwana abancinyane, labesifazana; kodwa lingasondeli lakuwuphi umuntu okulophawu phezu kwakhe, liqalise endaweni yami engcwele. Basebeqalisa emadodeni amadala ayephambi kwendlu.
7 Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mongu asɔredan no ho fi na momfa wɔn a wɔakunkum wɔn no nhyɛ adihɔ hɔ ma. Monkɔ!” Enti wɔkɔɔeɛ, na wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ kunkumm nnipa wɔ Yerusalem kuropɔn no mu nyinaa.
Yasisithi kubo: Ngcolisani indlu, ligcwalise amaguma ngababuleweyo. Phumani. Basebephuma, babulala emzini.
8 Ɛberɛ a wɔrekunkum na aka me nko ara no, mebutuu hɔ suiɛ sɛ, “Aa Otumfoɔ Awurade! Worebɛsɛe Israel nkaeɛfoɔ yi nyinaa ɛsiane wʼabufuhyeɛ a aba Yerusalem soɔ yi enti anaa?”
Kwasekusithi besababulala, mina-ke ngasala, ngathi mbo ngobuso bami, ngakhala ngathi: Hawu, Nkosi Jehova! Uzachitha yini yonke insali yakoIsrayeli ekuthululeni kwakho intukuthelo yakho phezu kweJerusalema?
9 Na ɔbuaa me sɛ, “Israelfoɔ ne Yuda amumuyɛ dɔɔso dodo; mogyahwiegu ahyɛ asase no so ma na ntɛnkyea ahyɛ asase no so ma. Wɔka sɛ, ‘Awurade agya asase no; Awurade nhunu.’
Khona yathi kimi: Ububi bendlu yakoIsrayeli loJuda bukhulu kakhulukazi, lelizwe ligcwele amacala egazi, lomuzi ugcwele ukuphambuka, ngoba bathi: INkosi ilidelile ilizwe, njalo iNkosi kayiboni.
10 Ɛno enti, merenhunu wɔn mmɔbɔ na meremma wɔmmfa wɔn ho nni, na mɛma deɛ wɔayɛ no abɔ wɔn ankasa tiri so.”
Lami-ke ilihlo lami kaliyikuhawukela, njalo kangiyikuyekela; ngizakwehlisela indlela yabo ekhanda labo.
11 Afei, ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera na atwerɛdeɛ bɔ ne nkyɛn mu no de nkra baeɛ sɛ, “Mayɛ sɛdeɛ wohyɛeɛ no.”
Khangela-ke, lowomuntu owayegqoke ilembu elicolekileyo, owayelophondo lweyinki okhalweni lwakhe, wabuyisela ilizwi esithi: Ngenzile njengoba ungilayile.
