Yesaia 17
1 Adehunu a ɛfa Damasko ho: “Hwɛ, Damasko renyɛ kuropɔn bio ɛbɛdane ayɛ mmubuiɛ sie.
“Laba Ddamasiko tekikyali kibuga, kifuuse matongo.
2 Aroer nkuropɔn bɛdane nkurofon na wɔagya ama nnwankuo ama wɔadeda hɔ, a obiara renyi wɔn hu.
Ebibuga bya Aloweri babidduseemu: birirekerwa ensolo mwe zinaagalamiranga nga tewali azikanga.
3 Kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban bɛyera wɔ Efraim, adehyetumi nso bɛfiri Damasko; Aram nkaeɛfoɔ bɛyɛ Israelfoɔ animuonyam,” Sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie.
Ekigo eky’amaanyi kirisaanyizibwawo mu Efulayimu, n’obwakabaka mu Ddamasiko bulimalibwawo; naye abalisigalawo mu Busuuli, baliba n’ekitiibwa ng’eky’abaana ba Isirayiri,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
4 “Ɛda no, Yakob animuonyam bɛpa; na ne mu sradeɛ bɛsa.
“Awo olulituuka ku lunaku luli, ekitiibwa kya Yakobo kirikendeera; era akoggere ddala.
5 Ɛbɛyɛ sɛdeɛ otwafoɔ twa aburoo a ɛgyina afuo so na ɔde ne nsa pempan sɛ ɛberɛ a obi redi mpɛpɛwa wɔ Refaim Bɔnhwa mu.
Ne kiba ng’omukunguzi bw’akuŋŋaanya eŋŋaano, n’omukono gwe ne gukungula empeke; weewaawo kiriba ng’omuntu bw’alonda ebinywa by’eŋŋaano mu Kiwonvu kya Lefayimu.
6 Nanso mpɛpɛwa no mu bi bɛka, sɛdeɛ wɔwoso ngo dua a ɛyɛ no; ɛka aba no mmienu anaa mmiɛnsa wɔ atifi mman no so, ne ɛnan anaa enum wɔ mman a ɛsoɔ no so,” sɛdeɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ nie.
Naye mulisigalamu ebinywa ebirondererwa ng’omuzeyituuni bwe gubeera nga gukubiddwa, ne guleka ebibala bibiri oba bisatu waggulu ku busongezo, bina oba bitaano ku busongezo bw’omuti omugimu,” bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri.
7 Saa ɛda no, nnipa de wɔn ani bɛto wɔn Yɛfoɔ so na wɔadane wɔn ani ahwɛ Israel Ɔkronkronni no.
Ku lunaku luli abantu balirowooza ku Mutonzi waabwe, n’amaaso gaabwe galikyukira Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
8 Wɔremfa wɔn ho nto afɔrebukyia a ɛyɛ wɔn nsa ano adwuma no so, na wɔbɛbu Asera afɔrebukyia ne nnuhwan afɔrebukyia a wɔde wɔn nsateaa ayɛ no animtia.
So tebalirowooza ku byoto bya balubaale baabwe, emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe, be beekolera, oba empagi za katonda wa Baasera oba ebyoto kwe bootereza obubaane.
9 Ɛda no, wɔn nkuropɔn a ɛwɔ banbɔ denden a Israelfoɔ enti wɔgyaa hɔ no bɛyɛ sɛ mmeammea a wɔagya ama nnɔtɔ ne wira. Ne nyinaa bɛda mpan.
Mu biro ebyo ebibuga byabwe eby’amaanyi Abayisirayiri bye baabalesa, biriba ng’ebifo ebyameramu ebisaka ne kalandalugo. Byonna birisigala matongo.
10 Mo werɛ afiri Onyankopɔn, mo Agyenkwa, na monkaee Ɔbotan no, mo aban no. Enti ɛwom sɛ mopɛ nnua papa na modua bobe a moatɔ afiri amanɔne.
Weerabidde Katonda Omulokozi wo, so tojjukidde Lwazi lwa maanyi go; kyova osimbamu ebisimbe eby’okukusanyusa n’osigamu omuzabbibu oguvudde ebweru.
11 Ɛwom sɛ ɛda a moduaeɛ no, momaa ɛnyiniiɛ anɔpa a moduaeɛ no, na moma ɛguu nhwiren. Nanso otwa no renyɛ hwee sɛ yadeɛ ne ɔyea a wɔntumi nsa.
Wadde obisimba bulungi nnyo ne bimera ku lunaku lw’obisimbye, era ne bimerusa ensigo ku makya kwennyini kwe bisimbiddwa, tolibaako ky’okungula wabula obulumi obutawonyezeka n’ennaku ey’ekitalo.
12 Ao aman dodoɔ no nhurusoɔ, wɔhuruso te sɛ ɛpo a ɛrebɔ asorɔkye! Ao nnipa dodoɔ nworosoɔ, wɔworoso sɛ nsuo akɛseɛ!
Woowe oluyoogaano olw’amawanga amangi, bawuluguma ng’okuwuluguma kw’ennyanja esiikuuse! Okuwuluguma kw’abantu, bawuluguma ng’amazzi agayiika n’amaanyi amangi!
13 Ɛwom sɛ nnipa dodoɔ no woro so te sɛ nsuo a ɛresene mmirika so, nanso, Onyankopɔn bɛka wɔn anim ama wɔadwane akɔ akyirikyiri, te sɛ ntɛtɛ a mframa bɔ gu wɔ bepɔ so te sɛ anweatam so wira a mframa den rebɔ no.
Wadde amawanga galiwuuma n’okuwulikika ne gawulikika ng’amazzi agayiika n’amaanyi amangi, Mukama bw’aligagoba, galibulawo mbagirawo. Galiba ng’ebisusunku bwe bitwalibwa empewo; era ng’enfuufu ekunta nga yeetooloola, enkuba ng’eneetera okutonnya.
14 Anwummerɛ, wɔbɔ yɛn hu awerɛfirie mu. Nanso ansa na adeɛ bɛkye no, na wɔkɔ dada! Wɔn a wɔfo yɛn nneɛma, ne wɔn a wɔbɔ yɛn korɔno kyɛfa nie.
Entiisa ey’amaanyi eribagwako akawungeezi. Buliba tebunnakya ng’abalabe bonna tewakyali. Guno gwe mugabo gw’abo abatunyaga, era y’empeera y’abo abatunyagako ebyaffe.
