Yesaia 38
1 Saa ɛberɛ no mu, ɔhene Hesekia yaree yarewuo, ɛnna Amos babarima odiyifoɔ Yesaia kɔsraa no. Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ ɔhene no, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Hyɛ wo nsamanseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, wobɛwu. Wo yadeɛ no rennyae.”
Nthawi imeneyo Mfumu Hezekiya anadwala ndipo anali pafupi kufa. Mneneri Yesaya mwana wa Amozi anapita kukamuona ndipo anati “Yehova akuti: Konza bwino nyumba yako, pakuti ukufa; suchira.”
2 Ɛberɛ a Hesekia tee asɛm yi, ɔtwaa nʼani hwɛɛ fasuo, bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ sɛ,
Hezekiya anatembenuka nayangʼana kukhoma, napemphera kwa Yehova kuti,
3 “Kae, Ao, Awurade, sɛdeɛ manante wʼanim nokorɛm na mede mʼakoma ayɛ deɛ ɛfata wɔ wʼanim.” Na Hesekia suu bebree.
“Inu Yehova, kumbukirani momwe ndayendera pamaso panu mokhulupirika ndi modzipereka ndipo ndakhala ndikuchita zabwino pamaso panu.” Ndipo Hezekiya analira mosweka mtima.
4 Na saa asɛm yi firi Awurade nkyɛn kɔɔ Yesaia hɔ sɛ,
Ndipo Yehova analamula Yesaya kuti:
5 “Sane kɔ Hesekia nkyɛn, na kɔka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Sei na Awurade, wʼagya Dawid Onyankopɔn ka: Mate wo mpaeɛbɔ no, na mahunu wo nisuo. Mede mfeɛ dunum bɛka wo nkwa nna ho.
“Pita kwa Hezekiya ndipo ukamuwuze kuti, ‘Yehova, Mulungu wa kholo lake Davide akuti: Ndamva pemphero lako ndipo misozi yako ndayiona; ndidzakuwonjezera zaka 15 pa moyo wako.
6 Na mɛgye wo ne kuropɔn yi afiri Asiriahene nsam. Mɛbɔ kuropɔn yi ho ban.
Ndipo ndidzakupulumutsa, iwe pamodzi ndi mzindawu mʼdzanja la mfumu ya ku Asiriya, Ine ndidzawuteteza mzindawu.
7 “‘Na yei ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a Awurade bɛyɛ de adi ho adanseɛ sɛ, ɔbɛdi ne bɔhyɛ so:
“‘Ichi ndi chizindikiro cha Yehova kwa iwe kutsimikiza kuti Yehova adzachita zimene walonjeza:
8 Mɛma owia ano sunsum atwe akɔ nʼakyi anammɔn edu wɔ Ahas atwedeɛ so.’” Ɛno enti, owia hyerɛn no kɔɔ nʼakyi anammɔn edu.
Chithunzithunzi chimene dzuwa likuchititsa pa makwerero a Ahazi ndidzachibweza mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi.’” Ndipo chithunzithunzi chinabwerera mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi.
9 Deɛ Yudahene Hesekia twerɛeɛ ne yadeɛ ne nʼayaresa akyi nie:
Ndakatulo ya Hezekiya mfumu ya ku Yuda imene analemba atadwala ndi kuchira:
10 Mekaa sɛ, “Mʼasetena mu nnapa yi mu ɛsɛ sɛ mefa owuo apono mu na wɔgye me mfeɛ a aka yi anaa?” (Sheol h7585)
Ine ndinaganiza kuti ndidzapita ku dziko la akufa pamene moyo ukukoma. (Sheol h7585)
11 Mekaa sɛ, “Merenhunu Awurade Onyankopɔn bio Awurade a ɔwɔ ateasefoɔ asase so. Merenhunu adasamma bio, anaa merenka wɔn a wɔte ewiase yi ho bio.
Ndinaganiza kuti, “Sindidzaonanso Yehova, mʼdziko la anthu amoyo, sindidzaonanso mtundu wa anthu kapena kukhala pamodzi ndi amene amakhala pa dziko lapansi lino.
12 Wɔadwiri me fie agu agye afiri me nsam, te sɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ ntomadan. Matwa me nkwa so sɛdeɛ ɔnwomfoɔ, twa me firi asadua so; awia ne anadwo wotwaa me nkwa so.
Nyumba yanga yasasuka ndipo yachotsedwa. Ngati tenti ya mʼbusa mwapindapinda moyo wanga, ngati munthu wowomba nsalu; kuyambira usana mpaka usiku mwakhala mukundisiya.
13 Mede ntoboaseɛ twɛneeɛ kɔsii ahemadakye, nanso wɔbobɔɔ me nnompe mu te sɛ gyata; awia ne anadwo wotwaa me nkwa so.
Ndinkalira kupempha chithandizo usiku wonse mpaka mmawa; koma Inu Yehova munaphwanya mafupa anga ngati mkango, ndipo mwakhala mukundisiya.
14 Mesuiɛ sɛ asomfena anaa asukɔnkɔn; metwaa adwo sɛ aborɔnoma a ɔredi awerɛhoɔ. Mʼani yɛɛ siamoo ɛberɛ a mehwɛɛ soro. Mewɔ ɔhaw mu, Awurade, bra bɛboa me!”
Ndinkalira ngati namzeze kapena chumba, ndinkabuwula ngati nkhunda yodandaula. Maso anga anatopa nʼkuyangʼana mlengalenga. Inu Ambuye, ine ndili mʼmavuto bwerani mudzandithandize!”
15 Na ɛdeɛn na mɛtumi aka? Wakasa akyerɛ me, na ɔno ankasa na wayɛ yei. Mede ahobrɛaseɛ bɛnante mʼasetena nyinaa mu me kra ahoyera yi enti.
Koma ine ndinganene chiyani? Yehova wayankhula nane, ndipo Iye ndiye wachita zimenezi. Chifukwa cha kuwawa kwa mtima wanga, ine ndidzayenda modzichepetsa masiku amoyo wanga onse.
16 Awurade, ɛnam saa nneɛma yi so na nnipa nya nkwa na me honhom nso anya nkwa wɔ mu. Wode mʼapɔmuden asane ama me. Wonam so ama manya nkwa.
Ambuye, masiku anga ali mʼmanja mwanu. Mzimu wanga upeza moyo mwa Inu. Munandichiritsa ndi kundikhalitsa ndi moyo.
17 Aane, ɛyɛ me yieyɛ enti na mekɔɔ saa ahoyera yi mu. Wo dɔ enti, wode me sieeɛ na mankɔ ɔsɛe amena mu; na wode me bɔne nyinaa akyɛ me.
Ndithudi, ine ndinamva zowawa zotere kuti ndikhale ndi moyo; Inu munandisunga kuti ndisapite ku dzenje la chiwonongeko chifukwa mwakhululukira machimo anga onse.
18 Damena rentumi nkamfo wo; owuo rentumi nto wo ayɛyi nnwom; wɔn a wɔsiane kɔ amena mu no rentumi nya anidasoɔ wɔ wo nokorɛ mu bio. (Sheol h7585)
Pakuti akumanda sangathe kukutamandani, akufa sangayimbe nyimbo yokutamandani. Iwo amene akutsikira ku dzenje sangakukhulupirireni. (Sheol h7585)
19 Ateasefoɔ nko na wɔbɛtumi akamfo wo, sɛdeɛ mereyɛ ɛnnɛ yi; agyanom ka wo nokorɛdie ho asɛm kyerɛ wɔn mma.
Amoyo, amoyo okha ndiwo amakutamandani, monga mmene ndikuchitira ine lero lino; abambo amawuza ana awo za kukhulupirika kwanu.
20 Awurade bɛgye me nkwa, na yɛde ahoma nnwontodeɛ bɛto nnwom yɛn nkwa nna nyinaa wɔ Awurade efie.
Yehova watipulumutsa. Tiyeni tiyimbe ndi zoyimbira za zingwe masiku onse a moyo wathu mʼNyumba ya Yehova.
21 Na Yesaia kaa sɛ, “Momfa borɔdɔma nyɛ nku mfa nsra pɔmpɔ no so, na ne ho bɛyɛ no den.”
Yesaya anati, “Anthu atenge mʼbulu wankhunyu ndipo apake pa chithupsacho ndipo Hezekiya adzachira.”
22 Na Hesekia bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ na ɛbɛda no adi sɛ mɛkɔ Awurade asɔredan mu?”
Hezekiya nʼkuti atafunsa kuti, “Kodi chizindikiro chako nʼchiyani chotsimikiza kuti ndidzapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova?”
