Yeremia 22
1 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ, “Siane kɔ Yudahene ahemfie na kɔpae mu ka saa asɛm yi:
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Yehlela endlini yenkosi yakoJuda, ukhulume khona lelilizwi,
2 ‘Tie Awurade asɛm, Ao, Yudahene, wo a wote Dawid ahennwa so, wo, wʼadwumayɛfoɔ ne wo nkurɔfoɔ a wɔfa apono yi mu.
uthi: Zwana ilizwi leNkosi, wena nkosi yakoJuda, ohlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida, wena, lezinceku zakho, labantu bakho abangena ngalamasango.
3 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: Monyɛ deɛ ɛtene na ɛda ɛkwan mu. Monnye deɛ wɔabɔ no korɔno mfiri ne hyɛsofoɔ nsam. Monnyɛ ɔhɔhoɔ, awisiaa ne okunafoɔ bɔne na monnyɛ wɔn basabasa nso, na monnhwie mogya a ɛdi bem ngu wɔ ha.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Yenzani isahlulelo lokulunga, lophule ophangiweyo esandleni somcindezeli; lingacindezeli, lingenzi udlakela kowezizwe, izintandane, lomfelokazi, njalo lingachithi igazi elingelacala kulindawo.
4 Sɛ moyɛ ahwɛyie na modi saa ahyɛdeɛ yi so a, ɛnneɛ ahemfo a wɔte Dawid ahennwa so ne wɔn adwumayɛfoɔ ne wɔn nkurɔfoɔ bɛfa saa ahemfie apono yi mu, a wɔtete nteaseɛnam mu ne apɔnkɔ so.
Ngoba uba lisenza linto isibili, khona kuzangena ngamasango alindlu amakhosi ahlalela uDavida esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, egade izinqola lamabhiza, yona lenceku zayo labantu bayo.
5 Enti sɛ moanni saa nhyehyɛeɛ yi so a, Awurade na ɔseɛ, Meka me ho ntam sɛ, saa ahemfie yi bɛdane fituo.’”
Kodwa uba lingawalaleli lamazwi, ngiyafunga ngami, kutsho iNkosi, ukuthi lindlu izakuba lunxiwa.
6 Deɛ Awurade ka fa Yudahene ahemfie ho nie: “Ɛwom sɛ medɔ wo te sɛ Gilead na wote sɛ Lebanon mmepɔ atifi, nanso, mɛyɛ wo sɛ anweatam, sɛ nkuro a obiara nte mu.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana lendlu yenkosi yakoJuda: UyiGileyadi kimi, inhloko yeLebhanoni; isibili ngizakwenza inkangala, imizi engahlalwayo.
7 Mɛsoma asɛefoɔ abɛtoa mo, obiara ne nʼakodeɛ, wɔbɛtwitwa mo ntweneduro mpunan fɛfɛ no mu na wɔato agu ogya no mu.
Ngizakulungisela abachithi, ngulowo elezikhali zakhe; njalo bazagamula ikhethelo lemisedari yakho, bayiphosele emlilweni.
8 “Nnipa a wɔfifiri aman bebree so bɛtwam wɔ kuropɔn yi so, na wɔbɛbisabisa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, ‘Adɛn enti na Awurade ayɛ saa kuropɔn kɛseɛ yi sei?’
Lezizwe ezinengi zizadlula kulumuzi, zithi, ngulowo kumakhelwane wakhe: INkosi yenzeleni kanje kulumuzi omkhulu?
9 Na mmuaeɛ no bɛyɛ sɛ, ‘Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔagya Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn apam no akɔsɔre anyame foforɔ asom wɔn.’”
Khona bazakuthi: Ngenxa yokuthi basidelile isivumelwano seNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, bakhonza abanye onkulunkulu, babasebenzela.
10 Monnsu ɔhene a wafiri mu, na monni ne ho awerɛhoɔ; mmom, monsu denden mma deɛ ɔkɔ nnommumfa mu, ɛfiri sɛ ɔrensane nʼakyi na ɔrenhunu asase a wɔwoo no wɔ so no bio.
Lingamkhaleli ofileyo, lingamlileli; khalelani kakhulu ohambileyo, ngoba kasayikubuya kumbe abone ilizwe lokuzalwa kwakhe.
11 Na yei ne deɛ Awurade ka faa Yosia babarima Salum a ɔdii nʼagya adeɛ sɛ Yudahene na wafiri ha no ho: “Ɔrensane mma bio.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana loShaluma indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, owabusa esikhundleni sikaJosiya uyise, owaphuma kulindawo: Kasayikubuya lapha;
12 Ɔbɛwu wɔ baabi a wɔafa no nnommum akɔ hɔ; na ɔrenhunu saa asase yi bio.”
kodwa uzafela endaweni abamthumbele kuyo, kasayikulibona lelilizwe.
13 “Nnome nka deɛ ɔmfa ɛkwan tenenee so nsi nʼahemfie, na ɔde nsisie si nʼabansoro. Nnome nka deɛ ɔma ne ɔmanfoɔ yɛ adwuma kwa, na ɔntua wɔn apaadie so ka.
Maye kowakha indlu yakhe ngokungalungi, lamakamelo akhe aphezulu ngokungaqondanga, osebenzisa umakhelwane wakhe ngeze, angamniki umvuzo wakhe;
14 Ɔka sɛ, ‘Mɛsi ahemfie kɛseɛ ama me ho deɛ ɛwɔ abansoro adan a emu soso.’ Enti ɔyɛ mpomma akɛseɛ wɔ mu; ɔde ntweneduro dura mu na ɔde ahosu kɔkɔɔ hyehyɛ mu.
othi: Ngizazakhela indlu enkulu lamakamelo aphezulu abanzi; azisikele amawindi, yembeswe ngemisedari, iconjwe ngokubomvu.
15 “Wowɔ ntweneduro bebree a na ɛma woyɛ ɔhene anaa? Na wʼagya nni aduane ne nsã anaa? Ɔyɛɛ deɛ ɛfa ne ɛkwan mu na ɛtene, enti ɛsii no yie.
Uzabusa yini, ngoba utshisekela ulaka ugqoke imisedari? Uyihlo kadlanga yini wanatha, wenza isahlulelo lokulunga, kwasekusiba kuhle kuye?
16 Ɔdii mmɔborɔni ne ohiani asɛm maa wɔn, enti biribiara yɛɛ yie maa no. Na ɛnyɛ yei na ɛkyerɛ sɛ obi nim me anaa?” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
Wehlulela udaba lomyanga loswelayo; khona kwaba kuhle. Lokhu kakusikungazi yini? itsho iNkosi.
17 “Mo ani ne mo akoma wɔ mfasoɔ bɔne nko ara so, sɛ mohwie mogya a ɛdi bem guo na moyɛ nhyɛsoɔ ne nsisie nso.”
Kodwa amehlo akho lenhliziyo yakho kakukho kokunye ngaphandle kwemhawini wakho, lekuchitheni igazi elingelacala, lencindezelweni, lekwenzeni udlakela.
18 Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Awurade ka fa Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim ho: “Wɔrensu no sɛ: ‘Aa, me nuabarima! Aa me nuabaa!’ Wɔrensu no sɛ: ‘Aa, me wura! Aa nʼahoɔfɛ!’
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana loJehoyakhimi indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda: Kabayikumkhalela besithi: Hawu mfowethu! kumbe: Hawu dadewethu! Kabayikumkhalela besithi: Hawu nkosi! loba: Hawu, bukhosi bakhe!
19 Wɔbɛsie no sɛ afunumu. Wɔbɛtwe nʼase na wɔato no atwene Yerusalem apono akyi.”
Uzangcwatshwa ngokungcwatshwa kukababhemi, ehudulwa alahlwe ngaphandle kwamasango eJerusalema.
20 “Monkɔ Lebanon nkɔ su, momma wɔnte mo nne wɔ Basan; monsu mfiri Abarim, ɛfiri sɛ wɔadwerɛ mo mpamfoɔ nyinaa.
Yenyukela eLebhanoni, umemeze, uphakamise ilizwi lakho eBashani, umemeze useAbarimi, ngoba zonke izithandwa zakho zibhujisiwe.
21 Mebɔɔ wo kɔkɔ, ɛberɛ a na ɛyɛ wo sɛ wʼasom adwo wo, nanso wokaa sɛ, ‘Merentie!’ Yei ne ɛkwan a wonam so firi wo mmerante berɛ mu; woanyɛ ɔsetie amma me.
Ngakhuluma lawe ekonwabeni kwakho, kodwa wathi: Kangiyikulalela. Lokhu bekuyindlela yakho kusukela ebutsheni bakho, ukuthi ungalilaleli ilizwi lami.
22 Mframa bɛbɔ wo nnwanhwɛfoɔ nyinaa akɔ, na wʼampamfoɔ nyinaa bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu. Afei wʼani bɛwu na wʼanim agu ase ɛsiane wʼamumuyɛ nyinaa enti.
Umoya uzakudla bonke abelusi bakho, lezithandwa zakho zizakuya ekuthunjweni; isibili khona uzakuba lenhloni, uyangeke, ngenxa yobubi bakho bonke.
23 Mo a mote Lebanon, na modeda ntweneduro adan mu, ɛrenkyɛre koraa, sɛ ɔyea ba mo so a, mobɛsi apene te sɛ ɔbaa a ɔreko awoɔ.
Wena ohlala eLebhanoni, owakhe isidleke phakathi kwemisedari, uzahawukelwa kangakanani ekuzeni kwenhlungu kuwe, ubuhlungu obunjengobowesifazana ohelelwayo.
24 “Nokorɛm, sɛ mete ase yi,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “Mpo sɛ wo Yehoiakin, Yudahene Yehoiakim babarima yɛɛ me nsa nifa so nsɔano kaa a, anka mɛworɔ wo.
Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi, loba uKoniya indodana kaJehoyakhimi, inkosi yakoJuda, ebeyindandatho elophawu esandleni sami sokunene, kanti bengizakuhluthula kuso,
25 Mede wo bɛma wɔn a wɔrehwehwɛ wo kra, wɔn a wosuro wɔn no; Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne Babiloniafoɔ.
ngikunikele esandleni sabadinga impilo yakho, lesandleni salabo owesaba ubuso babo, ngitsho esandleni sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, lesandleni samaKhaladiya,
26 Mɛpam wo ne wo maame a ɔwoo wo akɔgu ɔman foforɔ so, baabi a ɛnyɛ hɔ na wɔwoo mo mu biara, ɛhɔ na mo baanu bɛwuwu.
ngikuphosele phandle kanye lonyoko owakubelethayo, liye kwelinye ilizwe, elingazalelwanga kulo; njalo lizafela khona.
27 Morensane mma asase a mo kɔn dɔ sɛ mobɛsane aba so no bio.”
Kodwa elizweni abaphakamisa umphefumulo wabo ukubuyela kulo, kabayikubuyela kulo.
28 Adɛn enti na saa ɔbarima Yehoiakin te sɛ ayowaa a abɔ, adeɛ a obiara mpɛ anaa? Adɛn enti na wɔbɛpam ɔne ne mma, akɔgu asase a wɔnnim soɔ so?
Lumuntu uKoniya uyisithombe esidelelekayo lesiphahlazekileyo yini? Uyisitsha okungelantokozo kuso yini? Baphoselwani phandle, yena lenzalo yakhe, yebo, bephoselwa elizweni abangalaziyo?
29 Ao, asase, asase, asase! Tie Awurade asɛm!
Lizwe, lizwe, lizwe, zwana ilizwi leNkosi.
30 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Montwerɛ ɔbarima yi ho asɛm nto hɔ te sɛ obi a ɔnni ba, ɔbarima a ɔrennya nkɔsoɔ ne nkwa nna nyinaa na nʼasefoɔ mu biara renya nkɔsoɔ, na wɔn mu biara rentena Dawid ahennwa so na wɔrenni Yuda so ɔhene bio.”
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Bhalani lumuntu ukuthi kalabantwana, umuntu ongayikuphumelela ensukwini zakhe; ngoba kakulamuntu enzalweni yakhe ozaphumelela, ohlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida, esabusa koJuda.
