< Yeremia 4 >
1 “Sɛ wobɛsane wʼakyi a Ao, Israel, sane bra me nkyɛn,” sei na Awurade seɛ. “Sɛ woyi wʼahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ firi mʼani so na sɛ woammane bio,
ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, “Kapau te ke tafoki ʻE ʻIsileli, tafoki kiate au; pea kapau te ke tukuange ʻa hoʻo ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻe ʻikai ʻave koe.
2 na sɛ, nokorɛ, pɛyɛ ne tenenee mu woka ntam sɛ, ‘Sɛ Awurade te ase yi,’ a afei mobɛyɛ nhyira ama aman no na ne mu na wɔbɛnya animuonyam.”
Pea te ke fuakava, ‘ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova’ ʻi he moʻoni, mo e fakamaau, pea ʻi he angatonu; pea ʻoku meiate ia ʻae fakamonūʻia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga pea te nau vikiviki ʻiate ia.”
3 Yei ne asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛ Yuda mmarima ne Yerusalem: “Monsiesie mo asase a wɔmfuntum da na monnnua wɔ nkasɛɛ mu.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ki he kau tangata ʻo Siuta, mo Selūsalema, “Mou fakamolū ʻae kelekele foʻou, pea ʻoua naʻa tūtuuʻi ʻi he ngaahi ʻakau talatala.
4 Montwitwa mo ho twetia mma Awurade montwitwa mo akoma twetia, mo Yuda mmarima ne Yerusalemfoɔ, anyɛ saa a mʼabufuhyeɛ bɛsɔre na adɛre sɛ ogya. Mo bɔne a moayɛ enti, ɛbɛhye a obiara rennum.”
ʻAe kau tangata ʻo Siuta mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, mou kamu homou loto kia Sihova, pea toʻo ʻae ʻufiʻufi ʻo homou loto, telia naʻa ʻalu atu ʻeku houhau ʻo hangē ko e afi, pea ʻe vela ia ʻo ʻikai faʻa tāmateʻi, koeʻuhi ko e kovi ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga.”
5 “Bɔ nkaeɛ wɔ Yuda na pae mu ka wɔ Yerusalem sɛ, ‘Hyɛn totorobɛnto no wɔ asase no nyinaa so!’ Team denden sɛ: ‘Mommoaboa mo ho ano! Momma yɛn nnwane nkɔ kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no so!’
Mou fakahā ʻi Siuta, pea fakaʻilo ʻi Selūsalema; ʻo pehē, ‘Mou ifi ʻae meʻalea ʻi he fonua:’ fakahā, ʻi he potu kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, ‘Tau fakataha ʻakitautolu, pea ʻalu ki he ngaahi kolo kuo langa.’
6 Momma frankaa so na monkɔ Sion monnwane nkɔbɔ mo ho adwaa! Ɛfiri sɛ mede amanehunu firi atifi fam reba, ɔsɛeɛ a ɛyɛ hu.”
Fokotuʻu ʻae fuka ke hanga ki Saione: mou ʻalu, ʻoua ʻe tatali: he te u ʻomi ʻae kovi mei he tokelau, ʻio, ko e fakaʻauha lahi.
7 Gyata bi afiri ne tu mu; ɔbɔaman bi asi mu. Wafiri ne tenabea sɛ ɔrebɛsɛe wʼasase. Wo nkuro bɛbubu na ada mpan.
Kuo haʻu ʻae laione mei he fihi ʻoe vao, pea ʻoku haʻu ʻi hono hala ʻaia ʻe fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga; kuo ʻalu atu ia mei hono potu ke fakaʻauha ʻae fonua: pea ʻe lala ʻae ngaahi kolo, ʻo ʻikai ha kakai.
8 Enti fira ayitoma, di awerɛhoɔ na twa adwo, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade abufuhyeɛ no nnane mfirii yɛn so.
Koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, nonoʻo ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae vala tauangaʻa, pea mamahi mo tangi: he ʻoku teʻeki ai foki meiate kitautolu ʻae houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.
9 “Saa ɛda no,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “ɔhene no ne adwumayɛfoɔ no bɛbɔ hu, asɔfoɔ no bo bɛtu, na adiyifoɔ no ho bɛdwiri wɔn.”
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ʻe vaivai ʻae loto ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e loto ʻoe houʻeiki; pea ʻe ofo ʻae kau taulaʻeiki, pea ʻe fakatumutumu ʻae kau palōfita.”
10 Afei, mekaa sɛ, “Aa, Otumfoɔ Awurade, woadaadaa nnipa yi ne Yerusalem. Wokaa sɛ, ‘Mobɛnya asomdwoeɛ,’ wɔ ɛberɛ a akofena da yɛn mene mu.”
Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai, “ʻOiauē, ʻE ʻEiki Sihova! Ko e moʻoni kuo ke tukuange ʻae kakai ni mo Selūsalema ki he kākā, ʻo pehē, ‘Te mou maʻu ʻae fiemālie;’ kae ʻosi kuo hoko ʻae heletā ki he laumālie.”
11 Saa ɛberɛ no wɔbɛka akyerɛ nnipa yi ne Yerusalem sɛ, “Mframa a emu yɛ hyeɛ bɛbɔ afiri nkokoɔ wesee a ɛwɔ anweatam so aba me nkurɔfoɔ so, ɛnyɛ deɛ ɛpɔ ho anaa ɛhuhu soɔ;
Pea ʻe lea ki he kakai ni mo Selūsalema ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia; ʻo pehē, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae matangi vela mei he ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻi he toafa ki he ʻofefine ʻo hoku kakai, ka ʻoku ʻikai ke tatafi pe fakamaʻa.
12 mframa a ano yɛ den boro saa no firi me nkyɛn. Afei, mepae mu ka mʼatemmuo a ɛtia wɔn.”
ʻE haʻu ʻae matangi lahi mei he ngaahi potu ko ia kiate au; pea te u fakamaau ni ʻakinautolu foki.
13 Hwɛ! Ɔreba sɛ omununkum, ne nteaseɛnam reba sɛ, ntwahoframa, nʼapɔnkɔ ho yɛ herɛ sene akɔdeɛ. Yɛnnue! Yɛawu!
Vakai, te ne haʻu ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻao, pea ko ʻene ngaahi saliote ʻo hangē ko e ʻahiohio: ʻoku veʻe vave hake ʻene fanga hoosi ʻi he puna ʻae ʻikale. ʻOku tau malaʻia! He kuo fakaʻauha ʻakitautolu.
14 Ao, Yerusalem, yi bɔne firi wʼakoma mu na woanya nkwa. Wode adwemmɔne bɛhyɛ wo mu akɔsi da bɛn?
ʻE Selūsalema, ke ke fakamaʻa ho loto mei he angahala, koeʻuhi ke ke moʻui. ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻae nofo ʻa hoʻo ngaahi mahalo kovi ʻiate koe?
15 Ɛnne bi rebɔ kaseɛ firi Dan, ɛrebɔ amanehunu ho dawuro firi Efraim nkokoɔ so.
He ʻoku ongoʻi ʻae leʻo mei Tani, pea ʻoku fakahā ʻae meʻa fakamamahi mei he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi.
16 “Monka yei nkyerɛ aman no, mommɔ no dawuro nkyerɛ Yerusalem sɛ, ‘Atuafoɔ dɔm firi akyirikyiri asase bi so reba, wɔma ɔko nteamu so de tia Yuda nkuropɔn.
“Vakai, mou tala ki he ngaahi kakai; fakahā ki Selūsalema, ‘Kuo haʻu ʻae kau leʻo mei he potu mamaʻo, pea te nau kalanga ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta.’”
17 Wɔtwa kuropɔn no ho hyia sɛ mmarima a wɔrewɛn afuo, ɛfiri sɛ me nkurɔfoɔ ate me so atua,’” sei na Awurade seɛ.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻOku nau takatakai ia ʻo hangē ko e kau tauhi ngoue koeʻuhi kuo ne angatuʻu kiate au.
18 “Wʼankasa abrabɔ ne nneyɛeɛ na ɛde yei aba wo so. Yei yɛ wʼasotwe. Ɛyɛ nwono! Ɛwowɔ akoma!”
Kuo hoko ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate koe ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo anga mo hoʻo ngaahi faianga; ko eni hoʻo mamahi ʻoku kakaha ia, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻasi ia ki ho loto.”
19 Ao mʼahoyera, mʼahoyera! Mede ɔyea nukanuka me mu. Ao mʼakoma ɔyeadie! Mʼakoma bɔ paripari wɔ me mu, mentumi nyɛ komm. Ɛfiri sɛ, mate totorobɛnto no nnyegyeɛ; mate ɔko frɛ no.
ʻA hoku fatu, ʻa hoku fatu! ʻOku ou mamahi ʻo aʻu ki hoku loto: ʻoku ueʻi hoku loto ʻiate au; ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa fakalongo pe, koeʻuhi kuo u fanongo ki he meʻalea, kuo fanongo ʻa hoku laumālie ki he teu tau.
20 Amanehunu di amanehunu akyi; asase no nyinaa asɛe. Wɔasɛe me ntomadan prɛko pɛ, ne me hintabea mpofirim.
Kuo hoko ʻae fakaʻauha ki he fakaʻauha, he kuo lala ʻae fonua kotoa pē; kuo maumauʻi fakafokifā ʻa hoku fale fehikitaki; pea mo hoku ngaahi puipui.
21 Ɛsɛ sɛ mehwɛ ɔko frankaa no na metie totorobɛnto no nnyegyeeɛ kɔsi da bɛn?
ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻeku mamata ki he fuka, pea fanongo ki he leʻo ʻoe meʻalea?
22 “Me nkurɔfoɔ yɛ nkwaseafoɔ; wɔnnim me. Wɔyɛ mma a wɔnni adwen; wɔnte hwee ase. Wɔwɔ bɔneyɛ ho nyansa; na wɔnnim sɛdeɛ wɔyɛ papa.”
“He ʻoku vale ʻa hoku kakai, ʻoku teʻeki ai te nau ʻilo au: ko e fānau faha ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai hanau poto; ʻoku nau poto ki he fai kovi, ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻae ʻiloʻi ki he fai lelei.”
23 Mehwɛeɛ asase no, na ɛnni bɔbea na hwee nni so; mehwɛɛ ɔsorosoro, na wɔn hann no nni hɔ.
Pea naʻaku mamata ki he fonua, pea vakai, kuo maveuveu mo ngeʻesi pe ia; pea ki he ngaahi langi foki, pea naʻe ʻikai ha maama.
24 Mehwɛeɛ mmepɔ no, na wɔrewosowoso, na nkokoɔ no nyinaa rehinhim.
Ne u mamata ki he ngaahi moʻunga, pea vakai, kuo nau tetetete, pea naʻe ueʻi ʻae ngaahi tafungofunga kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa.
25 Mehwɛeɛ, na nnipa nni hɔ; ewiem anomaa biara atu kɔ.
Naʻaku mamata, pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai ha tangata, pea kuo mole kotoa pē ʻae fanga manupuna ʻoe langi.
26 Mehwɛeɛ, na nsasebereɛ no adane anweatam na ne nkuro nyinaa asɛe wɔ Awurade anim, wɔ nʼabufuhyeɛ anim.
Ne u mamata, pea vakai, kuo toafa ʻae potu fua lelei, pea kuo maumauʻi hifo ʻae ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻi hono houhau kakaha.
27 Sei na Awurade seɛ: “Wɔbɛsɛe asase no nyinaa, mmom merensɛe no korakora.
He kuo pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE lala ʻae fonua kotoa pē; ka ʻe ʻikai te u fakaʻosi ʻaupito.
28 Enti asase bɛdi awerɛhoɔ na ɔsorosoro bɛduru sum, ɛfiri sɛ makasa na merentwe nsan. Masi gyinaeɛ na mennane no.”
ʻE mamahi ʻa māmani koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, pea ʻe ʻuliʻuli ai ʻae ngaahi langi ʻi ʻolunga: koeʻuhi kuo u lea ʻaki ia, pea ʻe ʻikai te u fakatomala; kuo u tuʻutuʻuni ia, pea ʻe ʻikai te u tafoki mei ai.”
29 Apɔnkɔsotefoɔ ne agyantofoɔ nnyegyeeɛ ma kuro biara sofoɔ dwane. Ebinom kɔhyɛ nkyɛkyerɛ mu ebinom foro kɔ abotan mu. Nkuro no nyinaa so ada mpan; na obiara nte so.
ʻE hola ʻae kolo kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e patū ʻae kau tangata heka hoosi, mo e kau tangata fakakaufana; te nau ʻalu ki he vao fihi pea kaka ki he ngaahi maka: pea ʻe liʻaki ʻae kolo kotoa pē, pea ʻe ʻikai nofo ha tangata ʻi ai.
30 Ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ Ao wo a woasɛe woɔ? Adɛn na wofira kɔben de sikakɔkɔɔ agudeɛ asiesie wo ho? Adɛn na wode nnuro keka wʼani? Wohyehyɛ wo ho kwa. Wʼadɔfoɔ bu wo animtia; wɔrepɛ wo akum wo.
Pea ʻoka maumauʻi koe, ko e hā te ke fai? Kapau te ke fakakofuʻaki koe ʻae kulokula, pea kapau te ke teuteu ʻaki koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa teunga, pea kapau te ke loa ho mata ʻaki ʻae vali, ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ho fakahoihoifua koe; ʻe fehiʻa kiate koe ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻofa, pea te nau kumi hoʻo moʻui.
31 Mete osu bi te sɛ ɔbaa a awoɔ aka no, mete apinisie te sɛ ɔbaa a ɔrebɔne awoɔ, Ɔbabaa Sion su te sɛ deɛ nisupɔporɔ ahini no, ɔtrɛ ne nsa mu na ɔka sɛ, “Afei deɛ, meretɔ baha; wɔde me kra ama awudifoɔ.”
He kuo u fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo hangē ko e fefine ʻoku langā, pea mo e mamahi ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ne fāʻeleʻi ʻene ʻuluaki tama, ko e leʻo ʻoe ʻofefine ʻo Saione, ʻaia ʻoku toʻe pea mafao hono nima, ʻo pehē, “ʻOiauē au! He ʻoku vaivai hoku laumālie koeʻuhi ko e kau fakapō.”
