< Ɛsra 10 >
1 Ɛberɛ a Ɛsra bɔɔ mpaeɛ, kaa saa bɔne yi no, na ɔresu de ne ho toto fam wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no anim. Na nnipadɔm a wɔyɛ Israelfoɔ, mmarima, mmaa ne mmɔfra bɛkaa ne ho ne no twaa adwo.
Pamene Ezara ankapemphera ndi kuvomereza tchimo lawo, akulira ndipo atadzigwetsa pansi ku Nyumba ya Mulungu, anthu ambiri anabwera kwa iye kudzasonkhana naye. Panali amuna, akazi ndi ana, kuchokera mʼdziko lonse la Israeli ndipo ankalira kwambiri.
2 Na Yehiel babarima Sekania a ɔyɛ Elam aseni no ka kyerɛɛ Ɛsra sɛ, “Yɛpae mu ka sɛ yɛanni yɛn Onyankopɔn nokorɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛawareware abosonsomfoɔ mmaa a wɔwɔ asase no so. Nanso, yei akyi no, anidasoɔ wɔ hɔ ma Israel.
Ndipo Sekaniya, mwana wa Yehieli, wa fuko la Elamu, anawuza Ezara kuti, “Ife takhala osakhulupirika kwa Mulungu wathu ndipo takhala tikukwatira akazi achilendo a mayiko akunowa. Koma ngakhale zili chomwechi, chikhulupiriro chilipobe pakati pa Aisraeli.
3 Afei, momma yɛne yɛn Onyankopɔn nyɛ apam, na yɛnnyaa yɛn yerenom abosonsomfoɔ no awadeɛ, na yɛmpam wɔne wɔn mma. Yɛbɛtie afotuo a wo ne afoforɔ a wɔdi yɛn Onyankopɔn mmara no so de ama yɛn. Yɛbɛdi Onyankopɔn mmara no so.
Tsopano tiyeni tichite naye pangano Mulungu wathu, kuti tichotse akazi onsewa ndi ana awo, potsata malangizo a inu mbuye wanga ndi wa anthu amene amaopa malamulo a Mulungu wathu. Lolani kuti zichitike motsatira malamulo.
4 Ma wo bo nyɛ duru, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ wʼasɛdeɛ sɛ wokyerɛ yɛn ɛkwan a yɛbɛfa so ama biribiara akɔ so tee, na yɛde yɛn ahoɔden nyinaa bɛboa.”
Tsono dzukani, imeneyi ndi ntchito yanu. Ife tikuthandizani. Limbani mtima ndipo gwirani ntchitoyi.”
5 Na Ɛsra sɔre gyinaeɛ, na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ asɔfoɔ no ntuanofoɔ, Lewifoɔ ne Israelfoɔ nyinaa nka ntam sɛ, wɔbɛyɛ deɛ Sekania aka no. Na wɔn nyinaa kaa ntam a ano yɛ den.
Choncho Ezara anayimirira ndipo analumbiritsa akulu a ansembe, Alevi ndi Aisraeli onse, kuti adzachitedi monga Sekaniya ananenera. Tsono onse analumbira.
6 Na Ɛsra sɔre firii Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no anim kɔɔ Eliasib babarima Yehohanan dan mu. Ɔdaa hɔ, nanso wannidi annom. Na ɔda so di awerɛhoɔ ɛsiane asutwafoɔ a wɔasane aba no nokorɛ a wɔannie no enti.
Ezara anachoka ku Nyumba ya Mulungu napita ku chipinda cha Yehohanani, mwana wa Eliyasibu. Anatandala kumeneko usiku wonse ndipo sanadye chakudya kapena kumwa madzi popeza ankalira chifukwa cha kusankhulupirika kwa anthu obwera ku ukapolo.
7 Afei, wɔbɔɔ dawuro Yuda ne Yerusalem nyinaa sɛ, asutwafoɔ a wɔasane aba no nyinaa mmra Yerusalem.
Tsono anthu analengeza mʼdziko lonse la Yuda ndi mʼmizinda yonse ya Yerusalemu kwa onse ochokera ku ukapolo aja kuti asonkhane ku Yerusalemu.
8 Na wɔn a wɔamma nnansa ntam no, sɛ ntuanofoɔ ne mpanimfoɔ pɛ a, wɔde wɔn nsa bɛto wɔn agyapadeɛ so, na wɔapam wɔn afiri asutwafoɔ no mu.
Ananena kuti wina aliyense amene saonekera pakutha pa masiku atatu, adzalandidwa katundu wake, potsata malangizo a nduna ndi akuluakulu, ndipo adzachotsedwa mʼgulu la anthu obwerako ku ukapolo.
9 Nnansa ntam no, na Yudafoɔ ne Benyaminfoɔ aboa wɔn ho ano wɔ Yerusalem. Asɛm yi sii wɔ Kislew bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔpɛnima) da a ɛtɔ so dunkron, na wɔn nyinaa tenatenaa adwaberem hɔ wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no anim. Na wɔn ho repopo, ɛfiri sɛ, deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, na asɛm no mu yɛ duru, na deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu no, na osuo nso retɔ.
Choncho anthu onse a mʼdziko la Yuda ndi a mʼdziko la Benjamini anasonkhana ku Yerusalemu asanathe masiku atatu. Limeneli linali tsiku la 20 la mwezi wa 9. Anthu onse anakhala pansi pa bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu akunjenjemera chifukwa cha mvula yambiri imene inagwa.
10 Na ɔsɔfoɔ Ɛsra sɔre gyina kaa sɛ, “Moayɛ bɔne, ɛfiri sɛ, moawareware abosonsomfoɔ mmaa. Enti seesei, yɛwɔ afɔbuo a ano yɛ den mu sene kane deɛ no.
Ndipo wansembe Ezara anayimirira nawuza anthuwo kuti, “Inu mwachimwa pomakwatira akazi achikunja ndi kumawonjezera pa tchimo la Aisraeli.
11 Mompae mu nka mo bɔne nkyerɛ Awurade, mo agyanom Onyankopɔn, na monyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ. Monte mo ho mfiri nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so ne abosonsomfoɔ mmaa no ho.”
Tsopano lapani kwa Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo anu ndi kuchita zimene akufuna. Dzipatuleni kwa anthu a mayiko enawa ndi kwa akazi achikunjawa.”
12 Afei badwa no nyinaa maa wɔn nne so kaa sɛ, “Ampa, wʼasɛm no yɛ nokorɛ. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ deɛ woaka no.
Gulu lonse la anthu linayankha ndi mawu ofuwula kuti, “Nʼzoona! Tichita monga mwaneneramu.
13 Wɔtoaa so sɛ: Yei nyɛ da koro anaa nnanu adwuma, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛn mu bebree na saa bɔne kɛseɛ yi ka yɛn. Saa ɛberɛ yi yɛ osutɔberɛ, enti yɛrentumi ntena ha nkyɛre.
Koma pano pali anthu ambiri ndiponso mvula ikugwa kwambiri, choncho sitingakayime panja. Ndiponso ntchitoyi si ya tsiku limodzi kapena awiri, chifukwa tachimwa kwambiri pa zimene tachitazi.
14 Momma yɛn mpanimfoɔ nsi yɛn anan nyɛ biribiara. Obiara a ɔware ɔbosonsomni baa no ne ntuanofoɔ ne atemmufoɔ a wɔwɔ kuro yi mu bɛhyia ɛberɛ a yɛahyɛ no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn abufuhyeɛ a ɛfa saa asɛm yi ho no bɛfiri yɛn so.”
Tsono mulole kuti atsogoleri athu ayimirire mʼmalo mwa anthu onse. Aliyense wa mʼmizinda yathu amene anakwatira mkazi wachikunja abwere pa nthawi imene inu munene, ndipo abwere pamodzi ndi akuluakulu ndi oweruza a mzindawo. Choncho mkwiyo wa Mulungu wathu udzatichoka.”
15 Asahel babarima Yonatan ne Tikwa babarima Yahasia na wɔtiaa saa asɛm yi mu, na Mesulam ne Sabetai a ɔyɛ Lewini no foaa wɔn so.
Koma Yonatani yekha mwana wa Asaheli ndi Yahazieli mwana wa Tikiva ndiwo anatsutsapo pa zimenezi. Tsono Mesulamu ndi Mlevi Sebetai anawayikira kumbuyo.
16 Enti, yei ne nhyehyɛeɛ a wɔfaa so. Ɛsra yii ntuanofoɔ maa wɔsii wɔn mmusua anan, na ɔde edin bi too ntuanoni biara so. Bosome Kislew (bɛyɛ Ɔpɛnimaa) da a ɛtɔ so aduonu nkron no, ntuanofoɔ no tenaa ase hwehwɛɛ asɛm no mu.
Choncho anthu obwerako ku ukapolo aja anachita zimene zimafunika. Ndipo wansembe Ezara anasankha amuna amene anali atsogoleri a mabanja potsata mafuko awo ndipo onsewo analembedwa mayina awo. Tsiku loyamba la mwezi wa khumi anayambapo kuyifufuza nkhani imeneyi.
17 Afe a ɛdi so no mu, Abib bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) da a ɛtɔ so aduonu nson no na wɔawie mmarima a wɔawareware abosonsomfoɔ mmaa no nyinaa ho asɛnka.
Ndipo pofika tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba anali atathana nawo anthu amene anakwatira akazi achilendo aja.
18 Asɔfoɔ a na wɔawareware abosonsomfoɔ no din nie: Yosadak babarima Yesua ne ne nuammarimanom: Maaseia, Elieser, Yarib ne Gedalia.

19 Wɔkaa ntam sɛ wɔbɛgyaa wɔn yerenom, wɔn mu biara gyee nʼafɔdie too mu, na wɔde nnwennini bɛbɔɔ ɛfɔdie ho afɔdeɛ.
Iwo anatsimikiza zochotsa akazi awo ndipo chifukwa cha kulakwa kwawo aliyense anapereka nkhosa yayimuna ngati nsembe yopepesera machimo.
