Yeremia 48
1 Asɛm a ɛfa Moab ho no nie: Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: “Nebo nnue, na wɔbɛsɛe no. Wɔbɛgu Kiriataim anim ase, na wɔakye no; wɔbɛgu aban denden no anim ase, na wɔadwiri agu fam.
Mayelana leMowabi: UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: “Maye kuyo iNebho ngoba izachithwa. IKhiriyathayimi izayangeka njalo ithunjwe; inqaba izayangeka ibhidlizwe.
2 Wɔrenkamfo Moab bio; Hesbon mmarima bɛbɔ nʼasehweɛ ho pɔ; ‘Mommra, momma yɛn nkɔbɔ saa ɔman yi.’ Mo nso, Madmen mmarima mobɛka mo ano atom; akofena no bɛtaa mo.
IMowabi kayiyikudunyiswa futhi; eHeshibhoni abantu bazaceba ukumbhidliza: besithi, ‘Wozani sitshabalalise isizwe lesiyana.’ Lawe, wena Madimeni uzathuliswa; inkemba izaxotshana lawe.
3 Montie osu a ɛfiri Horonaim, adesɛeɛ ne ɔsɛeɛ ho su.
Zwanini ukukhala okuvela eHoronayimi; ukukhala komonakalo omkhulu lencithakalo.
4 Wɔbɛbɔ Moab: na ne mma nketewa bɛteateam.
IMowabi izachitheka; abancinyane bayo bazakhala.
5 Wɔforo kɔ Luhit, wɔde agyaadwotwa a emu yɛ den na ɛrekɔ; ɛkwan a ɛkɔ Horonaim so no wɔte ahoyera mu agyaadwotwa wɔ adesɛeɛ no ho.
Baqansa ngendlela eya eLuhithi, bahamba belila kabuhlungu, emgwaqweni owehlela eHoronayimi, kuzwakala ukukhala okulosizi ngenxa yokuchitheka.
6 Monnwane! Montu mmirika mpere mo nkwa. Momfa mo ho nsie sɛ wira wɔ anweatam so.
Balekani! Gijimani lizivikele ekufeni; wobani njengesihlahla enkangala.
7 Esiane sɛ mode mo ho to mo nneyɛɛ ne mo ahonya so enti, mo nso wɔbɛfa mo nnommum, na Kemos bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu, ɔne nʼasɔfoɔ ne adwumayɛfoɔ.
Njengoba lithembe izenzo zenu lenotho yenu, lani futhi lizathunjwa, loKhemoshi uzakuya ekuthunjweni, kanye labaphristi bakhe lezikhulu zakhe.
8 Ɔsɛefoɔ no bɛtu kuro biara so sa, na emu biara renya ne ho ntete. Wɔbɛsɛe bɔnhwa no na wɔasɛe mmepɔ mpampam a ɛyɛ tamaa no, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade akasa.
Umchithi uzafika emadolobheni wonke, njalo akukho dolobho elizaphepha. Isigodi sizatshabalaliswa, lamagceke azaqothulwa ngoba uThixo usekhulumile.
9 Momfa nkyene nhyɛ Moab, ɛfiri sɛ wɔrebɛsɛe no; ne nkuro bɛda mpan a obiara rentena soɔ.
Fakani itswayi kuyo iMowabi ngoba izachitheka; amadolobho ayo azakuba ngamanxiwa angayikuba lamuntu ozahlala kuwo.
10 “Nnome nka deɛ ɔtwentwɛnee ne nan ase wɔ Awurade adwumayɛ ho! Nnome nka deɛ ɔmmfa nʼakofena nhwie mogya nguo!
Yeka isithuko kulowo oyekethisayo ekwenzeni umsebenzi kaThixo! Yeka isithuko kulowo ogodla inkemba yakhe ekuchitheni igazi!
11 “Moab atena ase asomdwoeɛ mu firi ne mmerante ɛberɛ mu, te sɛ nsã ase puo a ataa dinn a wɔnnhwie mfirii ahina mu nkɔguu ahina foforɔ mu da; saa ara na Moab nso nkɔɔ nnommumfa mu da. Enti ɔte sɛ deɛ ɔte ara, na ne ho hwa nsesa.
IMowabi ibiphumule kusukela ebutsheni bayo njengewayini elisele phezu kwezinsipho zalo, elingathelwanga kwenye imbiza lisuswa kwenye kayithunjwanga. Ngakho inambitheka njengakuqala, iphunga layo kaliguqukanga.
12 Nanso, nna bi reba,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “a mɛsoma mmarima a wɔhwie nsã firi ahina mu, na wɔbɛhwie no agu; wɔbɛma nʼahina mu ayɛ hwee na wɔabobɔ ne nkuruwa.
Kodwa insuku ziyeza, lapho ngizathuma abantu abathulula okusembizeni, njalo bazayithululela phandle; bazachitha okusezimbizeni zayo bazimahlaze imbiza zayo.
13 Afei Kemos ho bɛyɛ Moab aniwu, sɛdeɛ Israel efie anim guu ase ɛberɛ a wɔde wɔn ho too Bet-El soɔ no.
Lapho-ke iMowabi izayangeka ngoKhemoshi njengokuyangeka kwendlu ka-Israyeli lapho babethembe iBhetheli.
14 “Ɛyɛ dɛn na wotumi ka sɛ, ‘Yɛyɛ nnɔmmarima, mmarima akokoɔdurufoɔ wɔ ɔsa mu’?
Lingatsho kanjani na ukuthi, ‘Singamabutho, amadoda alesibindi empini na’?
15 Wɔbɛsɛe Moab na wɔatu ne nkuro so sa; ne mmeranteɛ a wɔte apɔ no, wɔbɛkunkum wɔn,” deɛ Ɔhene a wɔfrɛ no Asafo Awurade no seɛ nie.
IMowabi izachithwa, amadolobho ayo ahlaselwe; amajaha ayo aqinileyo azacakazelwa phansi abulawe,” kutsho iNkosi, obizo layo nguThixo uSomandla.
16 “Moab asehweɛ abɛn; nʼamanehunu bɛba ntɛm.
“Ukuwa kweMowabi sekuseduze; umonakalo wayo uzafika ngokuphangisa.
17 Monsu no, mo a motete ne ho nyinaa, ne mo a monim ne din nyinaa; monka sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na wɔabubu ahempoma a ɛyɛ den yi? Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na wɔabu animuonyam poma fɛfɛ yi mu?’
Ikhaleleni lonke lina elakhelene layo, bonke abalwaziyo udumo lwayo, lithi, ‘Yeka ukwephuka kwentonga yobukhosi elamandla, yeka ukwephuka kodondolo oluhle kakhulu!’
18 “Firi wʼanimuonyam mu, na bɛtena asase wesee no so, wo a wote Ɔbabaa Dibon mu, ɛfiri sɛ deɛ ɔsɛe Moab no bɛtu aba wo so; abɛsɛe wo nkuropɔn a ɛwɔ banbɔ no.
Yehlani ebukhosini benu lihlale emhlabathini owomileyo, lina elihlala eNdodakazini yaseDibhoni. Ngoba lowo ochitha iMowabi uzakuzalihlasela adilize amadolobho enu avikelweyo.
19 Gyina kwankyɛn na hwɛ, wo a wote Aroer. Bisa ɔbarima a ɔredwane no ne ɔbaa a ɔrefiri mu afi, bisa wɔn sɛ, ‘Asɛm bɛn na asie?’
Manini emgwaqweni lilinde, lina elihlala e-Aroweri. Buzani indoda ebalekayo lowesifazane obalekayo; babuzeni lithi, ‘Kwenzakaleni na?’
20 Moab anim agu ase, ɛfiri sɛ wɔabubu no pasaa; montwa adwo na monteateam! Mommɔ dawuro wɔ Arnon ho sɛ wɔasɛe Moab.
IMowabi iyangekile, ngoba ichithekile. Lilani likhale! Bikani ngase-Arinoni ukuthi iMowabi itshabalalisiwe.
21 Atemmuo aba bepɔ tamaa so wɔ Holon, Yahas ne Mefaat,
Ukwehlulela sekufikile emagcekeni eHoloni, leJahazi laseMefahathi,
22 Dibon ne Nebo ne Bet-Diblataim
eDibhoni, leNebho laseBhethi-Dibhilathayimi,
23 ne Kiriataim ne Bet Gamul ne Bet Meon
eKhiriyathayimi, leBhethi-Gamuli laseBhethi Meyoni,
24 ne Keriot ne Bosra wɔ Moab nkuro nyinaa, deɛ ɛwɔ akyirikyiri ne deɛ ɛbɛn.
eKheriyothi kanye laseBhozira kuwo wonke amadolobho aseMowabi, aseduze lakhatshana.
25 Wɔatwa Moab abɛn; na ne basa abu,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
Uphondo lweMowabi luqunyiwe, ingalo yalo yephuliwe,” kutsho uThixo.
26 “Momma no mmoro nsã, ɛfiri sɛ wabu Awurade animtia. Momma Moab nyantam wɔ ne feɛ mu; momma no nyɛ fɛdideɛ.
“Idakiseni ngoba idelele uThixo. IMowabi kayizibhixe ngamahlanzo ayo; kayibe yinto yokuhlekwa.
27 Ɛnyɛ Israel na na ɔyɛ mo fɛdideɛ? Wɔkyeree no akorɔmfoɔ mu anaa, a enti mowoso mo ti animtiabuo so ɛberɛ biara a mobɛka ne ho asɛm?
U-Israyeli wayengasinto yokuhlekisa kuwe na? Watholakala ephakathi kwamasela na, ukuba unikine ikhanda lakho ngokweyisa ngasosonke isikhathi lapho ukhuluma ngaye?
28 Monfifiri mo nkuro so nkɔtena abotan mu, mo a motete Moab. Monyɛ sɛ aborɔnoma a ɔyɛ ne pirebuo wɔ ɔbodan ano.
Tshiyani amadolobho enu lihlale emadwaleni, lina elihlala eMowabi. Wobani njengejuba elakhela isidleke salo emlonyeni wobhalu.
29 “Yɛate Moab ahantan no nʼahomasoɔ ne gye a ɔgye ne ho di mmorosoɔ; nʼahantan ne nʼahomasoɔ, ne nʼakoma mu ahohoahoa.
Sizwile ngokuzigqaja kweMowabi, ukuziqakisa kwayo lokuzazisa kwayo! Ukuzigqaja lokuzikhukhumeza kwayo, kanye lokuziphakamisa kwenhliziyo yayo.
30 Menim nʼasoɔden nanso ɛyɛ ɔkwa,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “na nʼahohoahoa mfa hwee mma.
Ngiyakwazi ukudelela kwayo, kodwa kuyize, lokuzincoma kwayo akusizi lutho,” kutsho uThixo
31 Enti metwa adwo ma Moab, mesu team ma Moabfoɔ nyinaa, medi awerɛhoɔ ma nnipa a wɔwɔ Kir Hereset.
“Ngakho-ke ngiyalila ngeMowabi, ngikhalela iMowabi yonke, ngililela abantu baseKhiri-Haresethi.
32 Mesu ma mo sɛdeɛ Yaser su, Ao Sibma bobe. Mo mman dendane kɔɔ ɛpo ho pɛɛ; kɔduruu Yaser ɛpo ho. Ɔsɛefoɔ no abɛgu mo nnuaba a abereɛ ne mo bobe no so.
Ngiyalikhalela njengokulila kweJazeri, lina zivini zaseSibhima. Ingatsha zenu zinaba zifike olwandle, zafika olwandle lwaseJazeri. Umchithi usehlele phezu kwezithelo zakho ezivuthiweyo laphezu kwamavini.
33 Ahosɛpɛ ne anigyeɛ atu afiri Moab nnuaba nturo ne mfuo so. Matwa nsã a ɛtene firi nsakyimena no so; obiara mmfa ahosɛpɛ ntiatia bobe no so. Ɛwom sɛ nteateam wɔ hɔ deɛ, nanso ɛnyɛ ahosɛpɛ nteateam.
Ukuthokoza lokuthaba akusekho ezivinini lasemasimini eMowabi. Ukugeleza kwewayini ezikhamelweni sengikumisile; kakho ozalikhama eklabalala ngentokozo. Lanxa kulokuklabalala akusikuklabalala kwentokozo.
34 “Wɔn su ano den gyegye firi Hesbon de kɔsi Eleale ne Yahas, firi Soar de kɔsi Horonaim ne Eglat Selisiya. Mpo, nsuo a ɛwɔ Nimrim no awe.
Umsindo wokukhala kwabo uyaphakama uvelela eHeshibhoni usiya e-Eliyale laseJahazi, uvela eZowari usiyafika eHoronayimi le-Egilathi Shelishiya, ngoba lamanzi aseNimirimi asecitshile.
35 Moab hɔ no, mede sorɔnsorɔmmea afɔrebɔ ne nnuhwam a wɔhye ma wɔn anyame no bɛba awieeɛ,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
EMowabi ngizabaqeda labo abanikela iminikelo ezindaweni eziphakemeyo batshisele labonkulunkulu babo impepha,” kutsho uThixo.
36 “Enti mʼakoma su sɛ atɛntɛbɛn ma Moab; esu sɛ atɛntɛbɛn ma nnipa a wɔwɔ Kir Hereset. Ahonyadeɛ a wɔpɛeɛ no kɔ.
“Ngakho inhliziyo yami ikhalela iMowabi njengemfegwana; iyakhala njengemfegwana ikhalela abantu beKhiri-Haresethi. Inotho ababeyizuzile kayisekho.
37 Wɔabɔ etire biara tikwa na wɔayi abɔgyesɛ biara; nsa nyinaa ho ayɛ akamakam na ayitoma sisi obiara asene.
Amakhanda wonke aphuciwe lezindevu zonke zigeliwe; izandla zonke zisikiwe lezinkalo zonke zigqokiswe amasaka.
38 Adan a ɛwɔ Moab nyinaa atifi ne ɔmanfoɔ adwaberem nyinaa, biribiara nni hɔ sɛ awerɛhoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ mabubu Moab ayɛ no sɛ ahina a obiara mpɛ,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
Phezu kwezimpahla zonke zezindlu zaseMowabi lasemagcekeni kazulu, akulalutho ngaphandle kokukhala, ngoba iMowabi ngiyibulele njengembiza engafunwa muntu,” kutsho uThixo.
39 “Hwɛ sɛdeɛ wabubuo afa! Hwɛ sɛdeɛ wɔretwa adwoɔ! Na hwɛ sɛdeɛ Moab de aniwuo dane nʼakyi! Moab ayɛ fɛdideɛ ne ahodwiredeɛ ama wɔn a wɔatwa ne ho ahyia nyinaa.”
“Yeka ukuphahlazwa kwayo! Yeka ukulila kwabo! Yeka ukufulathela kweMowabi ilehlazo! IMowabi isibe yinto yokuhlekwa; into yokwesatshwa yibo bonke abakhelane layo.”
40 Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Monhwɛ! Ɔkɔdeɛ reto hoo aba fam. Watrɛ ne ntaban mu wɔ Moab so.
UThixo uthi: “Khangela! Ukhozi lwehlela phansi ngesiqubu, lwelulele impiko zalo phezu kweMowabi.
41 Wɔbɛfa Keriot nnommum na wafa nʼaban denden no. Saa ɛda no Moab nnɔmmarima akoma bɛtu sɛ ɔbaa a ɔrekyem awoɔ so.
IKheriyothi izathunjwa, lezinqaba zithunjwe. Ngalolosuku inhliziyo zamabutho aseMowabi zizakuba njengenhliziyo yowesifazane ohelelwayo.
42 Wɔbɛsɛe Moab na ɛrenyɛ ɔman bio, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbuu Awurade animtia.
IMowabi izachithwa ingabe isaba yisizwe ngoba yadelela uThixo.
43 Ehu, nkomena ne mfidie retwɛn mo, Ao Moabfoɔ,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
Ukwesaba lomgodi kanye lomjibila kulilindele lina bantu baseMowabi,” kutsho uThixo.
44 “Deɛ ɔdwane deɛ ɛyɛ hu no bɛtɔ nkomena mu, deɛ ɔbɛforo afiri nkomena no mu no, afidie bɛyi no; na mede Moab asotwe afe no bɛba ne so,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
“Loba ngubani obalekela ukwesaba uzawela emgodini, loba ngubani ophuma emgodini uzabanjwa ngumjibila; ngoba ngizakwehlisela phezu kweMowabi umnyaka wokujeziswa kwayo,” kutsho uThixo.
45 “Hesbon nwunu ase na adwanefoɔ no gyinagyina a wɔnni mmoa biara, ɛfiri sɛ ogya bi atu afiri Hesbon; ɛgyadɛreɛ bi firi Sihon mfimfini; ɛhye Moabfoɔ moma, ne ahohoahoafoɔ a wɔn ano yɛ den no ti kwankoraa.
“Emthunzini waseHeshibhoni ababalekayo bayema kungelasizo, ngoba umlilo usuphumile eHeshibhoni, ilangabi elivela phakathi kwakoSihoni; litshisa amabunzi eMowabi inkakhayi zamaqhalaqhala alomsindo.
46 Nnome nka wo Ao, Moab! Wɔasɛe Kemos nkurɔfoɔ no; wɔde wo mmammarima kɔ nnommumfa mu na wo mmammaa nso kɔ nkoasom mu.
Maye kuwe! wena Mowabi! Abantu baseKhemoshi babhujisiwe; amadodana athunjiwe lamadodakazi akho athunjiwe.
47 “Nanso mede Moab adenya bɛsane ama no wɔ nna a ɛbɛba no mu,” Awurade na ɔseɛ. Moab atemmuo no awieeɛ nie.
Kodwa inhlanhla ye-Mowabi ngizayibuyisela ensukwini ezizayo,” kutsho uThixo. Ukwahlulelwa kweMowabi kuphelela lapha.
