Yeremia 18
1 Yei ne Awurade asɛm a ɛbaa Yeremia nkyɛn.
Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti,
2 “Kɔ ɔnwomfoɔ no efie, na ɛhɔ na mede mʼasɛm no bɛma wo.”
“Pita ku nyumba ya munthu wowumba mbiya, ndipo kumeneko ndikakuwuza mawu anga.”
3 Ɛno enti, mekɔɔ ɔnwomfoɔ no efie na mehunuu no sɛ, ɔreyɛ adwuma wɔ ne ntwahodeɛ so.
Choncho ndinatsikira ku nyumba ya wowumba mbiya, ndipo ndinamuona akuwumba mbiya pa mkombero.
4 Nanso kukuo a na ɔde dɔteɛ no reyɛ ho adwuma no sɛeɛ wɔ ne nsa mu; ɛno enti ɔnwomfoɔ no yɛɛ kukuo foforɔ, sɛdeɛ ɛyɛ pa ara ma no.
Tsono amati ngati mbiya imene waumba ikhala yosawumbika bwino ankayiphwanya nʼkuwumbanso ina monga mmene afunira ndi dothi lake lomwe lija.
5 Afei, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
Kenaka Yehova anandiwuza kuti,
6 “Ao, Israel fiefoɔ, merentumi nyɛ mo sɛdeɛ ɔnwomfoɔ yi yɛ anaa?” Awurade na ɔseɛ. “Sɛdeɛ dɔteɛ teɛ wɔ ɔnwomfoɔ nsa mu no, saa ara na moteɛ wɔ me nsa mu, Ao Israel fiefoɔ.
“Inu Aisraeli, kodi Ine sindingathe kuchita nanu monga amachitira wowumba mbiya?” akutero Yehova. “Inu muli mʼmanja mwanga ngati mtapo mʼmanja mwa wowumba mbiya.
7 Sɛ ɛberɛ biara meka sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtutu ɔman bi anaa ahennie bi ase, dwerɛ wɔn, sɛe wɔn a,
Ngati nditalengeza kuti mtundu wina wa anthu kapena ufumu wina ndiwuzula, kuwugwetsa ndi kuwuwononga,
8 na sɛ ɔman a mebɔɔ no kɔkɔ no sakra firi ne bɔne ho a, mɛsesa mʼadwene na meremfa amanehunu a mesusuiɛ sɛ me de bɛba wɔn so mma bio.
ndipo ngati mtundu wa anthu umene ndawuchenjezawo ulapa zoyipa zawo, ndiye kuti Ine ndidzaleka ndipo sindidzabweretsa pa anthuwo mavuto amene ndinakonzekera kuwachitira.
9 Na sɛ mmerɛ foforɔ bi meka sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkyekyere ɔman anaa ahennie bi gye no si hɔ,
Ndipo ngati ndilengeza kuti ndikufuna kumanga ndi kukhazikitsa mtundu wa anthu kapena ufumu.
10 na sɛ ɔyɛ bɔne wɔ mʼani so na wanyɛ ɔsetie amma me a, ɛnneɛ mesane adwene papa a mepɛɛ sɛ meyɛ noɔ no ho.
Koma mtunduwo ukachita choyipa pamaso panga nʼkusandimvera, ndiye kuti sindidzawuchitiranso zabwino zimene ndimafuna ndiwuchitire.
11 “Na afei ka kyerɛ Yudafoɔ ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: Hwɛ! Mede amanehunu reba mo so, na mereyɛ nhyehyɛeɛ a ɛtia mo. Ɛno enti mo mu biara nnane mfiri nʼakwammɔne so na monsiesie mo akwan ne mo nneyɛɛ.’
“Ndipo tsopano kawawuze anthu a ku Yuda ndi amene akukhala mu Yerusalemu kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Taonani! Ndikukukonzerani mavuto, ndi kuganizira zoti ndikulangeni. Kotero siyani makhalidwe anu oyipa aliyense wa inu, ndipo mukonzenso makhalidwe anu ndi zochita zanu.’
12 Nanso wɔbɛbua sɛ, ‘Ɛho nni mfasoɔ. Yɛbɛkɔ so adi yɛn ara yɛn nhyehyɛeɛ so; yɛn mu biara bɛyɛ asoɔden a ɛfiri nʼakoma bɔne mu.’”
Koma iwo adzayankha kuti, ‘Zimenezo nʼzosathandiza. Ife tidzapitiriza kuchita zomwe takonzekera; aliyense wa ife adzatsatira zoyipa za mtima wake wokanika.’”
13 Ɛno enti deɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “Mommisa wɔ amanaman no mu sɛ, hwan na wate biribi sɛi pɛn? Ɔbaabunu Israel ayɛ adeɛ bi a ɛyɛ hu yie.
Yehova akuti, “Uwafunse anthu a mitundu ina kuti: Kodi ndani anamvapo zinthu zofanana ndi zimenezi? Israeli amene anali ngati namwali wanga wachita chinthu choopsa kwambiri.
14 Sukyerɛmma a ɛwɔ Lebanon nane firi nsaneɛ mu abotan no so anaa? Nsuo wiridudu a nʼatifi wɔ akyirikyiri gyae sene anaa?
Kodi chisanu chimatha pa matanthwe otsetsereka a phiri la Lebanoni? Kodi madzi ozizira amitsinje ochokera ku phiri la Lebanoni adzamphwa?
15 Nanso, me nkurɔfoɔ werɛ afiri me. Wɔhye nnuhwam ma ahoni huhuo, a ɛma wɔn suntisunti wɔ wɔn akwan so ne tete atempɔn so. Wɔma wɔfa akwan nkyɛn ne akwan a wɔmmɔeɛ so.
Komatu anthu anga andiyiwala; akufukiza lubani kwa mafano achabechabe. Amapunthwa mʼnjira zawo zakale. Amayenda mʼnjira zachidule ndi kusiya njira zabwino.
16 Wɔn asase bɛda mpan, na ayɛ adeɛ a wɔbɛbu no animtia daa; wɔn a wɔtwam hɔ no ho bɛdwiri wɔn na wɔbɛwosowoso wɔn ti.
Dziko lawo amalisandutsa chipululu, chinthu chochititsa manyazi nthawi zonse; onse odutsapo adzadabwa kwambiri ndipo adzapukusa mitu yawo.
17 Mɛbɔ wɔn ahwete wɔ wɔn atamfoɔ anim te sɛ deɛ apueeɛ mframa yɛ no. Mɛdane mʼakyi akyerɛ wɔn, na ɛnyɛ mʼanim, wɔ wɔn amanehunu da no.”
Ngati mphepo yochokera kummawa, ndidzawabalalitsa pamaso pa adani awo; ndidzawafulatira osawathandiza pa tsiku la mavuto awo.”
18 Wɔkaa sɛ, “Mommra mma yɛmfa adwene ntia Yeremia; yɛremma asɔfoɔ no anaa anyansafoɔ no anaa adiyifoɔ no nkyerɛkyerɛ no nyera. Mommra na yɛntu yɛn ano ngu ne so a yɛnntie deɛ ɔbɛka biara.”
Anthuwo anati, “Tiyeni, tipangane zoti timuchitire Yeremiya; pakuti ansembe otiphunzitsa malamulo tidzakhala nawobe. Anthu anzeru otilangiza tidzakhala nawo, ndiponso aneneri otilalikira mawu. Choncho tiyeni timupezere chifukwa ndipo tisamvere chilichonse chimene akunena.”
19 Yɛ aso ma me, Ao, Awurade; tie deɛ wɔn a wɔpam me tiri so reka!
Ndipo ndinapemphera kwa Yehova kuti, “Inu Yehova, ndimvereni; imvani zimene adani anga akunena za ine!
20 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde bɔne tua papa so ka anaa? Nanso wɔatu amena ama me. Kae sɛ megyinaa wʼanim na mekasa maa wɔn sɛdeɛ wobɛyi wʼabufuhyeɛ afiri wɔn so.
Kodi chinthu choyipa nʼkukhala dipo la chinthu chabwino? Komabe iwo andikumbira dzenje. Kumbukirani kuti ndinadzayima pamaso panu kudzawapempherera kuti muwachotsere mkwiyo wanu.
21 Ɛno enti, ma ɛkɔm nne wɔn mma; yi wɔn ma akofena. Ma wɔn yerenom nyɛ abonini ne akunafoɔ; ma wɔnkunkum wɔn mmarima na wɔmfa akofena nkunkum wɔn mmeranteɛ wɔ ɔko mu.
Choncho langani ana awo ndi njala; aperekeni kuti aphedwe ndi lupanga. Akazi awo asanduke opanda ana ndi amasiye; amuna awo aphedwe ndi mliri, anyamata awo aphedwe ndi lupanga ku nkhondo.
22 Ma wɔnte osu wɔ wɔn afie mu ɛberɛ a atamfoɔ atu wɔn so sa mpofirim, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔatu amena ama me, na wɔasumsum me nan mfidie.
Kulira kumveke kuchokera mʼnyumba zawo mutawatumizira gulu lankhondo mwadzidzidzi kuti liwakanthe. Iwo andikumbira dzenje kuti ndigweremo ndipo atchera msampha mapazi anga.
23 Nanso wonim Ao, Awurade, ɛpɔ a wɔabɔ nyinaa sɛ wɔbɛkum me. Mfa wɔn nsɛmmɔne nkyɛ wɔn, na nyi wʼani mfiri wɔn bɔne so. Ma wɔnni nkoguo wɔ wʼanim; na wo ne wɔn nni wɔ wʼabofuo mu.
Koma Inu Yehova, mukudziwa ziwembu zawo zonse zofuna kundipha. Musawakhululukire zolakwa zawo kapena kufafaniza machimo awo pamaso panu. Agonjetsedwe pamaso panu; muwalange muli wokwiya.”
