< Sefania 3 >
1 Nnome nka nhyɛsofoɔ kuropɔn atuateɛ kuropɔn a ɛho agu fi!
Magaalaa cunqursitootaa, finciltuu fi xurooftuu sanaaf wayyoo!
2 Ɔnnyɛ ɔsetie mma obiara ɔnnye nteɛsoɔ biara nto mu. Ɔmfa ne ho nto Awurade so. Ɔntwi mmɛn ne Onyankopɔn.
Isheen nama tokkoof iyyuu hin ajajamtu; sirreeffama tokko iyyuu hin fudhattu. Isheen Waaqayyoon hin amanattu; Waaqa isheettis hin dhiʼaattu.
3 Nʼakandifoɔ yɛ agyata a wɔbobɔ mu, ne sodifoɔ yɛ mpataku a wɔnam anadwo, a wɔnnya biribiara mma adekyeɛ.
Qondaaltonni ishee leenca aaduu dha; bulchitoonni ishee yeeyyii galgalaa kanneen waan tokko illee ganamaaf hin bulfannee dha.
4 Ne nkɔmhyɛfoɔ yɛ ahantan; wɔyɛ afatwafoɔ. Nʼasɔfoɔ gu kronkronbea ho fi. Wɔnam mmara no so di nsɛmmɔne.
Raajonni ishee of tuultota; isaan namoota hin amanamnee dha. Luboonni ishee iddoo qulqulluu xureessanii seeras cabsu.
5 Awurade a ɔte ne mu no yɛ ɔteneneeni; ɔnnyɛ mfomsoɔ biara. Adekyeeɛ biara ɔda ne tenenee adi, na ɔnni hwammɔ da, nanso amumuyɛfoɔ deɛ wonnim aniwuo.
Waaqayyo inni ishee keessa jiru qajeelaa dha; inni dogoggora tokko illee hin hojjetu. Inni ganama ganama murtii qajeelaa kenna; guyyaa tokko iyyuu waan kana hojjechuu hin dadhabu; jalʼoonni garuu qaanii tokko iyyuu hin beekan.
6 “Masɛe amanaman; madwiri wɔn abandenden agu. Wɔn mmorɔno so adeda mpan, a obiara ntwa mu hɔ. Wɔaseɛ wɔn nkuropɔn; a obi biara renka.
“Ani saboota nan balleessa; daʼannoowwan isaanii diigamaniiru. Akka namni tokko iyyuu achiin hin dabarreef ani daandiiwwan ishee onseera. Magaalaawwan isaanii onanii nama malee, duwwaa hafu.
7 Meka kyerɛɛ kuropɔn no sɛ, ‘ampa ara wobɛsuro me na woagye nteɛsoɔ ato mu!’ Na afei ne tenaberɛ rensɛe, na mʼasotwe biara nso remma ne so. Nanso, wɔn ho peree wɔn sɛ wɔbɛkɔso ayɛ bɔne wɔn nneyɛeɛ nyinaa mu.
Ani magaalaa sanaan, ‘Ati dhugumaan na sodaatta; sirreeffamas ni fudhatta!’ nan jedhe. Ergasii iddoon jireenya ishee hin badu yookaan adabbiin koo hundinuu isheetti hin dhufu. Isaan garuu waan hojjetan hunda keessatti daba hojjechuutti ciman.
8 Enti, twɛn me,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “na ɛda no mɛsɔre adi adanseɛ. Mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛboaboa amanaman ne ahennie ano na mahwie mʼabufuo agu wɔn so mʼabufuhyeɛ nyinaa. Me ninkuntwe abufuo ogya mu no, asase nyinaa bɛhye.
Kanaafuu guyyaa ani itti dhugaa baʼu eeggadhu” jedha Waaqayyo; “Ani sabootaa fi mootummoota walitti qabee dheekkamsa kootii fi aarii koo sodaachisaa sana hunda isaanitti dhangalaasuuf murteesseera. Addunyaan guutuun ibidda hinaaffaa kootiin gubattee barbadoofti.
9 “Afei mɛdwira nnipa no ano, na wɔn nyinaa abɔ Awurade din na wɔaka abɔ mu asom no.
“Ergasii ani akka hundi isaanii maqaa Waaqayyoo waammataniif, akka walii galuudhaan isa tajaajilaniifis afaan namootaa nan qulqulleessa.
10 Mʼasomfoɔ, me nkurɔfoɔ a wɔabɔ ahwete no bɛfiri nsubɔntene a ɛwɔ Kus nohoa de wɔn afɔrebɔdeɛ abrɛ me.
Warri anaaf sagadan, intallan koo kanneen bittinnaaʼan lageen Itoophiyaa gamaa kennaa naaf fidu.
11 Saa ɛda no, wo Yerusalem, wɔrengu wʼanim ase wɔ nneyɛeɛ bɔne a woayɛ atia me ho, ɛfiri sɛ mɛyi afiri saa kuropɔn yi mu, wɔn a wodi ahantan mu ahurisie na worenyɛ ahantan bio wɔ me bepɔ kronkron no so.
Sababii ani warra of tuulummaa isaaniitti gammadan magaalaa kana keessaa baasuuf, gaafas yakka ati natti hojjette sana hundaaf salphinni sitti hin dhufu. Ati lammata gaara koo qulqulluu irratti of hin tuultu.
12 Nanso mɛgya wɔ wo mu wɔn a wɔdwo na wɔbrɛ wɔn ho ase, na wɔde wɔn ho to Awurade so.
Ani garuu garraamotaa fi gad of qabeeyyii kanneen maqaa Waaqayyoo amanatan si keessatti nan hambisa.
13 Israel nkaeɛfoɔ renyɛ bɔne Wɔrenka nkontonpo nsɛm, na wɔn ano renka nnaadaa nsɛm wɔbɛdidi na wɔada na obiara renyi wɔn hu.”
Hambaan Israaʼel yakka tokko illee hin hojjetan. Isaan soba hin dubbatan yookaan gowwoomsaan afaan isaanii keessatti hin argamu. Isaan nyaatanii boqotu; kan isaan sodaachisus hin jiru.”
14 To dwom Ao, Ɔbabaa Sion; team denden Ao, Israel! Ma wʼani nnye, na di ahurisie wɔ wʼakoma nyinaa mu, Ao, Ɔbabaa Yerusalem!
Yaa Intala Xiyoon ati faarfadhu; yaa Israaʼel sagalee ol fudhadhuu iyyi! Yaa Intala Yerusaalem gammadiitii garaa kee guutuudhaan ililchi!
15 Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ayi wʼasotweɛ afiri wo so, wama wo ɔtamfoɔ asane nʼakyi. Awurade Israelhene ka wo ho; worensuro ɔhaw biara bio.
Waaqayyo adaba kee sirraa fuudheera; inni diinota kee sirraa deebiseera. Waaqayyo Mootiin Israaʼel, si wajjin jira; ati lammata balaa tokko illee hin sodaattu.
16 Saa ɛda no, wɔbɛka akyerɛ Yerusalem sɛ, “Mma nsuro, Ao Sion! Mma wo nsa mu nhodwo.
Isaan gaafas Yerusaalemiin akkana ni jedhu; “Yaa Xiyoon hin sodaatin; harki kees hin laafin.
17 Awurade wo Onyankopɔn ne wo wɔ hɔ, Ɔyɛ ɔgyefoɔ ɔhoɔdenfoɔ. Nʼani bɛgye wo ho ɔfiri ne dɔ mu bɛdwodwo wo, ɔde nnwontoɔ bɛma nʼani agye wo ho.
Waaqayyo Waaqni kee inni si wajjin jiru jabaa dha. Inni baayʼee sitti gammada; inni jaalala isaatiin si boqochiisa; faarfannaadhaanis sitti gammada.”
18 “Mo awerɛhoɔ to bɛtwa ɛfiri sɛ mobɛnya ɛkwan adi mo afahyɛ no; mo anim rengu ase bio.
“Ani gadda ati ayyaanota murteeffamaniif gadditu sirraa nan fuudha; isaan booʼichaa fi salphina sitti taʼu.
19 Saa ɛberɛ no me ne wɔn a wɔhyɛɛ wo so nyinaa bɛdi; Mɛgye mmerɛyɛfoɔ na mɛboaboa wɔn a wɔabɔ wɔn ahwete no ano. Mɛkamfo wɔn ahyɛ wɔn animuonyam asase biara a wɔguu wɔn anim ase wɔ so no so.
Ani yeroo sanatti warra si cunqursan hunda nan adaba; ani okkolaa nan baraara; warra gatamanis walitti nan qaba. Ani biyya isaan itti qaaneffaman hunda keessatti maqaa fi ulfina isaaniifin kennaaf.
20 Saa ɛda no, mɛboaboa wo ano, na mede wo aba fie. Mɛhyɛ wo animuonyam na makamfo wo wɔ asase so nnipa nyinaa mu na mede wʼahonyadeɛ bɛsane ama wo na wode wʼani bɛhunu,” sɛdeɛ Awurade ka nie.
Ani yeroo sanatti walittin isin qaba; yeroo sanatti ani biyya keessanitti isin nan galcha. Ani yeroo utuma isin argitanuu boojuu keessan deebisutti saba lafaa hunda gidduutti ulfinaa fi maqaa isiniifin kenna” jedha Waaqayyo.
