Mika 7
1 Mayɛ mmɔbɔ! Mete sɛ aduaba tefoɔ a otwa berɛ akyi mekɔdi mpɛpɛ wɔ bobe turo mu; mennya bobe siaw na madi, borɔdɔma aba a ɛdi ɛkan a me kɔn dɔ nso, saa ara.
Maye ngosizi lwami! Nginjengomuntu obutha izithelo zehlobo senginjengevini eselivunwe laphela; akuselasixha samavini okudliwa, kayisekho lemikhiwa yakuqala engiyikhanukayo.
2 Moapra Nyamefɛrefoɔ nyinaa afiri asase so. Anka ɔbaako a ɔtene mpo. Nnipa nyinaa tetɛ na wɔhwehwɛ sɛ wɔbɛka mogya agu; wɔsunsum wɔn ho wɔn ho mfidie.
Abathembekileyo babhujisiwe elizweni, kakho lamunye umuntu olungileyo oseleyo. Abantu bonke bacathamela ukuchitha igazi; lowo lalowo uzingela umfowabo ngombule.
3 Nsa mmienu no nyinaa akokwa bɔneyɛ mu; sodifoɔ bisa akyɛdeɛ, ɔtemmufoɔ gye adanmudeɛ, wɔn a tumi wɔ wɔn nsa mu no yɛ deɛ wɔpɛ, wɔn nyinaa bɔ mu dwene amumuyɛ ho.
Izandla zombili zizingcitshi ekwenzeni okubi; umbusi ufuna izipho ngamandla, umahluleli wamukela isivalamlomo, abalamandla babiza abakufisayo, bonke baceba okubi bendawonye.
4 Deɛ ɔyɛ wɔ wɔn mu no te sɛ hwerɛmo; deɛ ɔtene pa ara no, nkasɛɛ ban yɛ sene no. Wʼatɛmmuda no aso, ɛda a Onyankopɔn reba wo nsrahwɛ. Yei ne ɛberɛ a wɔn ani so bɛyɛ wɔn totɔtotɔ.
Ongcono wabo unjengesihlahla sameva, oqotho kakhulu mubi kulothango lwameva. Usuku uNkulunkulu alethekelela ngalo selufikile, usuku lokukhala kophondo lwabalindi. Manje sekuyisikhathi sokuphumputheka kwabo.
5 Nnye obiara nni; mfa wo werɛ nhyɛ adamfo mu. Mpo ɔbaa a ɔda wo koko mu no to wo tɛkrɛma nnareka wɔ ne ho.
Ungamethembi umakhelwane; ungagwabi ngomngane wakho. Lalowo olala umgonile, qaphela amazwi akho.
6 Ɔbabarima twiri nʼagya, Ɔbabaa sɔre tia ne maame, asebaa nso tia nʼase na onipa biara atamfoɔ bɛfiri ɔno ankasa ne fiefoɔ mu.
Ngoba indodana idumaza uyise, indodakazi ivukela unina, umalukazana avukele uninazala, izitha zomuntu ngamalunga endlu yakhe.
7 Me deɛ, mede anidasoɔ hwɛ Awurade, Metwɛn me Nkwagyeɛ Onyankopɔn; na me Onyankopɔn bɛtie me.
Kodwa mina ngilindele uThixo ngethemba, ngilindele uNkulunkulu uMsindisi wami; uNkulunkulu wami uzangizwa.
8 Mma wʼani nnye, me ɔtamfoɔ! Mahwe ase deɛ, nanso mɛsɔre. Esum aduru me deɛ, nanso Awurade bɛyɛ me hann.
Ungaklolodi wena sitha sami! Lanxa ngiwile, ngizavuka. Lanxa ngihlezi emnyameni, uThixo uzakuba yikukhanya kwami.
9 Sɛ mayɛ bɔne atia no enti, Awurade abufuo bɛba me so, kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛka mʼasɛm ama me na wada me bembuo adi. Ɔde me bɛba hann no mu; na mɛhunu ne tenenee.
Ngenxa yokuba ngonile kuye, ngizalumela ulaka lukaThixo, aze angincengele endabeni yami, aveze ukungabi lacala kwami. Uzangikhuphela phandle ekukhanyeni; ngizabona ukulunga kwakhe.
10 Afei, mʼatamfoɔ bɛhunu na wɔn ani bɛwu, deɛ ɔsee me sɛ, “Ɛhe na Awurade wo Onyankopɔn no wɔ?” Mʼani bɛhunu nʼahweaseɛ; mpo seesei no, wɔbɛtiatia ne so te sɛ atɛkyɛ a ɛwɔ mmɔntene so.
Lapho-ke isitha sami sizakubona, njalo sibanjwe zinhloni, lowo owathi kimi, “Ungaphi uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho?” Lakhathesi uzagxotshwa ngezinyawo njengodaka emigwaqweni.
11 Ɛda a wɔbɛto wʼafasuo no bɛba, ɛda a wɔbɛtrɛ wʼahyeɛ mu.
Usuku lokwakhiwa kwemiduli yakho luzafika, usuku lokuqhelisa imingcele yakho.
12 Ɛda no, nnipa bɛba wo nkyɛn firi Asiria ne Misraim nkuropɔn mu, mpo wɔbɛfiri Misraim akɔsi Eufrate afiri ɛpo akɔsi ɛpo ne bepɔ so akɔsi bepɔ so.
Ngalolosuku abantu bazakuza kuwe bevela e-Asiriya lasemadolobheni aseGibhithe, njalo kusukela eGibhithe kusiya kuYufrathe, kusukela olwandle kusiya olwandle, lakusukela entabeni kusiya entabeni.
13 Asase no bɛyɛ amanfo ɛsiane nnipa a wɔtete so ne wɔn nneyɛɛ enti.
Umhlaba uzachitheka ngenxa yabahlezi kuwo, ngenxa yezenzo zabo.
14 Fa wo poma di wo nkurɔfoɔ anim, nnwan a wɔyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ no, a wɔn nko ara tete kwaeɛ mu wira frɔmfrɔm adidibea hɔ. Ma wɔn nnidi wɔ Basan ne Gilead sɛ tete nna no mu.
Beluse abantu bakho ngentonga yakho, umhlambi welifa lakho, ohlala wodwa ehlathini emadlelweni avundileyo. Kawudle eBhashani laseGiliyadi njengasezinsukwini zokuphuma.
15 “Mɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ akyerɛ wo, sɛdeɛ meyɛɛ nna a wofiri Misraim baeɛ mu no.”
“Njengasezinsukwini zokuphuma kwenu eGibhithe, ngizabatshengisa izimangaliso zami.”
16 Aman bɛhunu wo na wɔn ani bɛwu, wɔn a tumi nyinaa afiri wɔn nsa no. Wɔde wɔn nsa bɛtuatua wɔn ano na wɔn aso bɛsisi.
Izizwe zizabona ziyangeke, zemukwe wonke amandla azo. Zizabamba imilomo yazo ngezandla, lezindlebe zazo zingabe zisezwa.
17 Wɔbɛdi dɔteɛ sɛ awɔ, ne mmoa a wɔwea fam. Wɔde ahopopoɔ bɛfiri wɔn abɔn mu aba; wɔde suro bɛdane wɔn ho ama Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn, na wɔbɛsuro wo.
Zizakhotha uthuli njengenyoka, njengezinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini. Zizakuza ziqhaqhazela ziphuma emihomeni yazo; zizaphendukela kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ngokwesaba, njalo lawe zizakwesaba.
18 Hwan na ɔte sɛ wo, Onyankopɔn a wode bɔne kyɛ? Wo a wode agyanom asefoɔ nkaeɛ amumuyɛ kyɛ wɔn. Wʼabofuo nntena hɔ daa na mmom wʼani gye sɛ wobɛda mmɔborɔhunu adi.
Ngubani onguNkulunkulu njengawe, oxolela izono athethelele iziphambeko zensalela zelifa lakhe na? Kawuthukutheli kokuphela kodwa uthokoza ngokutshengisa isihawu.
19 Wobɛhunu yɛn mmɔbɔ bio, wobɛtiatia yɛn bɔne so, na woato yɛn amumuyɛ agu ɛpo bunu mu.
Uzakuba lesihawu kithi futhi; uzanyathela izono zethu ngezinyawo uphosele bonke ububi bethu ezinzikini zolwandle.
20 Wobɛyɛ nokwafoɔ ama Yakob na wahunu Abraham mmɔbɔ sɛdeɛ wokaa yɛn agyanom ntam teteete no.
Uzakuba qotho kuJakhobe, ubonakalise isihawu sakho ku-Abhrahama, njengokuthembisa kwakho ngesifungo kubokhokho bethu ensukwini zasendulo.
