Sakaria 13
1 “Saa ɛda no, wɔbɛtu asubura ama Dawid fie ne Yerusalemfoɔ de ahohoro wɔn bɔne ne wɔn ho fi.
“Ngalelolanga umthombo uzavulelwa indlu kaDavida labakhileyo eJerusalema, ukubahlanza izono lokungcola.
2 “Saa ɛda no, mɛyi ahoni no din afiri asase no so, na wɔrenkae wɔn bio,” sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie. “Mɛyi adiyifoɔ ne efiyɛ honhom afiri asase no so.
Ngalelolanga ngizawasusa amabizo ezithombe elizweni ukuze zingakhunjulwa njalo,” kutsho uThixo uSomandla. “Ngizabasusa abaphrofethi kanye lomoya wokungcola phakathi kwelizwe.
3 Sɛ obi kɔ so hyɛ nkɔm a, agya ne ɛna a wɔwoo saa onipa no bɛka akyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ wowuo, ɛfiri sɛ, wode Awurade din atwa atorɔ.’ Sɛ ɔhyɛ nkɔm a, ɔno ankasa awofoɔ bɛwɔ no sekan.
Nxa ezabe elokhu ekhona ophrofethayo, uyise lonina abamzalayo bazakuthi kuye, ‘Kumele ufe ngoba usukhulume amanga ngegama likaThixo.’ Uzakuthi ephrofitha abazali bakhe ngokwabo bazamgwaza.
4 “Saa ɛda no, odiyifoɔ biara ani bɛwu wɔ ne nkɔmhyɛ anisoadehunu ho. Ɔrenhyɛ odiyifoɔ atadeɛ a wɔde nwi ayɛ, mfa nnaadaa nnipa.
Ngalelolanga ngulowo lalowo umphrofethi uzaba lamanhloni ngombono wakhe wokuphrofetha. Akayikwembatha isivunulo somphrofethi esoboya ezama ukukhohlisa.
5 Ɔbɛka sɛ, ‘Menyɛ odiyifoɔ. Meyɛ okuafoɔ. Na ɛfiri me mmeranteberɛ mu no, asase yi so na menya mʼano aduane.’
Uzakuthi, ‘Kangisuye umphrofethi, ngingumlimi; umhlabathi uyilapho okulokuphila kwami kusukela ebutsheni bami’
6 Na sɛ obi bisa no sɛ, ‘Ɛdeɛn akuro na ɛwɔ wo ho yi a?’ Ɔbɛbua sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ akuro a menyaa wɔ me nnamfonom fie.’”
Aluba ebuzwa kuthiwe, ‘Ngawani amanxeba la asemzimbeni wakho?’ Uzaphendula athi, ‘Ngamanxeba engawazuza endlini yabangane bami.’
7 “Sɔre, Ao, akofena, sɔre tia me dwanhwɛfoɔ, tia onipa a ɔbɛn me!” Sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie. “Bɔ odwanhwɛfoɔ no, na nnwan no bɛbɔ ahwete, na mɛma me nsa so atia nnwammaa no.
Vuka, wena nkemba, vukela umelusi wami, uvukele umuntu osekhwapheni lami!” kutsho uThixo uSomandla. “Tshaya umelusi, izimvu zizahlakazeka, njalo ngizaphendula isandla sami ngitshaye ezincinyane.
8 Asase no so nyinaa,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “Wɔbɛbɔ nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu mmienu ahwe fam ma wɔawuwu; na nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako bɛka wɔ so.
Kulolonke ilizwe,” kutsho uThixo, “ezimbili kwezintathu zizatshaywa zife; kodwa ingxenye yesithathu izasala kulo.
9 Mede nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako yi bɛfa ogya mu; mɛnane wɔn te sɛ deɛ wɔnane dwetɛ, na masɔne wɔn so sɛ sikakɔkɔɔ. Wɔbɛbɔ me din afrɛ me, na mɛgye wɔn so. Mɛka sɛ, ‘Wɔyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ,’ na wɔbɛka sɛ, ‘Awurade yɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn.’”
Le ingxenye yesithathu ngizayifaka emlilweni; ngizabancibilikisa ngibacenge njengesiliva ngibahlolisise njengegolide. Bazalibiza ibizo lami, lami ngizabaphendula; ngizakuthi, ‘Bangabantu bami,’ labo bazakuthi, ‘UThixo unguNkulunkulu wethu.’”
