< Yeremia 19 >
1 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Kɔ na kɔtɔ dɔteɛ kuruwa firi ɔnwomfoɔ nkyɛn. Fa nnipa no mpanimfoɔ no mu bi ne asɔfoɔ no mu bi ka wo ho
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Hamba uyethenga isiphiso sombumbi esebumba; uthathe ebadaleni babantu lebadaleni babapristi.
2 na firi adi kɔ Ben Hinom Bɔnhwa a ɛbɛn Pɔthɛd Ɛpono ano no. Ɛhɔ na pae mu ka nsɛm a meka kyerɛ wo no,
Ubusuphuma uye esihotsheni sendodana kaHinomu esisekungeneni kwesango lodengezi, umemezele khona amazwi engizakutshela wona.
3 sɛ, ‘Montie Awurade asɛm, Ao Yuda ahemfo ne Yerusalemfoɔ. Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: Montie, mede amanehunu reba ha, na obiara a ɔbɛte no aso mu bɛyɛ no yɔnn.
Uthi: Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, lina makhosi akoJuda lani bakhileyo beJerusalema: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangelani, ngizaletha okubi phezu kwalindawo, okuzakuthi loba ngubani okuzwayo, indlebe zakhe zizakhenceza.
4 Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔagya me na wɔde ha ama ananafoɔ anyame; wɔahye afɔrebɔdeɛ wɔ so ama anyame a wɔn anaa wɔn agyanom, anaa Yuda ahemfo nhunuu wɔn da, na wɔde mogya a ɛdi bem ahyɛ ha ma.
Ngenxa yokuthi bangidelile, bayenza lindawo yaba ngeyabezizwe, batshisela kiyo impepha kwabanye onkulunkulu, abangabazanga bona laboyise lamakhosi akoJuda; futhi bayigcwalisa lindawo ngegazi labangelacala.
5 Wɔasisi Baal sorɔnsorɔmmea sɛ wɔde ogya bɛhye wɔn mmammarima sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ama Baal, adeɛ a manhyɛ anaa mammɔ so, anaa amma mʼadwene mu.
Futhi bakha izindawo eziphakemeyo zikaBhali, ukutshisa amadodana abo ngomlilo abe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa kuBhali, engingakulayanga, engingakukhulumanga, okungavelanga enhliziyweni yami.
6 Ɛno enti, monhwɛ yie na nna bi reba, Awurade na ɔseɛ, a nnipa remfrɛ ha sɛ Tofet anaa Ben Hinom Bɔnhwa bio, na mmom, Okum Bɔnhwa.
Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho lindawo ingasayikubizwa ngokuthi yiTofethi, loba isiHotsha sendodana kaHinomu, kodwa isiHotsha sokuBulawa.
7 “‘Mɛsɛe Yuda ne Yerusalem nhyehyɛeɛ wɔ ha. Mɛma wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano wɔ wɔn atamfoɔ a wɔrepɛ wɔn nkwa no anim, na mede wɔn afunu bɛma ewiem nnomaa ne asase so mmoa sɛ wɔn aduane.
Njalo ngizachitha icebo lakoJuda leJerusalema kulindawo, ngenze ukuthi bawe ngenkemba phambi kwezitha zabo, langesandla sabazingela impilo zabo; nginike izidumbu zabo zibe yikudla kwenyoni zezulu lokwenyamazana zomhlaba.
8 Mɛsɛe saa kuropɔn yi na mayɛ no animtiabudeɛ; wɔn a wɔtwam hɔ no nyinaa ho bɛdwiri wɔn, na nʼapirakuro no enti wɔbɛdi ne ho fɛw.
Ngenze lumuzi ube lunxiwa, lokokuncifelwa; wonke owedlula kuwo uzamangala kakhulu ancife ngenxa yazo zonke inhlupheko zawo.
9 Mɛma wɔawe wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa nam, na wɔbɛfiri ahohia a atamfoɔ a wɔrepɛ wɔn nkwa no tua de bɛba wɔn so no mu awe wɔn ho wɔn ho nam.’
Njalo ngizabenza badle inyama yamadodana abo lenyama yamadodakazi abo; njalo bazakudla ngulowo inyama kamakhelwane wakhe ekuvinjezelweni lekucindezelweni, ezizabacindezela ngakho izitha zabo labadinga impilo yabo.
10 “Afei, bɔ kuruwa no wɔ wɔn a wɔka wo ho no anim ma wɔnhwɛ,
Khona uzaphahlaza isiphiso emehlweni amadoda ahamba lawe;
11 na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ: Mɛbɔ saa ɔman yi ne kuropɔn yi sɛdeɛ wɔabɔ ɔnwomfoɔ kuruwa yi a wɔrentumi nsiesie bio. Wɔbɛsie awufoɔ wɔ Tofet kɔsi sɛ, ɛhɔ bɛyɛ ma.
ubususithi kiwo: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Ngokunjalo ngizabaphahlaza lababantu lalumuzi, njengomuntu ephahlaza imbiza yombumbi, engebuye ilungiswe futhi; njalo bazabangcwaba eThofethi, ngoba kungasoze kube lendawo yokungcwaba.
12 Sei ara na mɛyɛ saa beaeɛ yi ne wɔn a wɔtete so, Awurade na ɔseɛ. Mɛyɛ kuropɔn yi sɛ Tofet.
Ngizakwenza njalo kulindawo, itsho iNkosi, lakwabakhileyo bayo, ukuthi ngenze lumuzi ube njengeThofethi.
13 Afie a ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda ahemfo ahemfie ho bɛgu fi te sɛ Tofet ha. Afie a, wɔhyee nnuhwam wɔ adan atifi maa ɔsoro asafo nyinaa na wɔguu nsã maa anyame foforɔ.’”
Njalo izindlu zeJerusalema lezindlu zamakhosi akoJuda zizangcoliswa njengendawo yeThofethi, ngenxa yazo zonke izindlu abatshisela phezu kwempahla zazo impepha kulo lonke ibutho lamazulu, bathululela abanye onkulunkulu iminikelo yokunathwayo.
14 Afei Yeremia sane firii Tofet, baabi a Awurade somaa no sɛ ɔnkɔhyɛ nkɔm hɔ no baeɛ, na ɔbɛgyinaa Awurade asɔredan abangua mu na ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa sɛ,
Khona wabuya uJeremiya evela eTofethi, lapho iNkosi eyayimthume khona ukuprofetha, wasesima egumeni lendlu yeNkosi, wathi ebantwini bonke:
15 “Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ, ‘Montie! Mede amanehunu a meka guu kuropɔn yi ne ɛho nkuraase no nyinaa so no bɛba wɔn so, ɛfiri sɛ wɔyɛɛ kɔnsenee na wɔantie me nsɛm.’”
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangelani, ngizakwehlisela kulumuzi lakuyo yonke imizana yawo konke okubi engikutshiloyo ngawo, ngoba benze lukhuni intamo yabo, ukuze bangezwa amazwi ami.
