Kwadwom 1

1 Ao, sɛdeɛ kuropɔn no adane amamfo nie, kuropɔn a anka nnipa ahyɛ no ma? Ɛdeɛn enti na wayɛ okunafoɔ baa a kane no na anka woyɛ kɛseɛ wɔ amanaman no mu? Deɛ na ɔyɛ ɔhemmaa wɔ amantam no mu no abɛyɛ afenaa ɛnnɛ.

‌ʻOiau! ʻAe nofo lala pe ʻae kolo ʻaia naʻe pito ʻi he kakai! Kuo ne hoko ʻo hangē ko e fefine kuo mate hono ʻunoho! Ko ia, ʻaia naʻe lahi ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea hangē ko e ʻeiki fefine ki he ngaahi potu puleʻanga, kuo hoko ia ko e fai tukuhau!

2 Ɔsu yaayaaya anadwo, nisuo sensane nʼafono so. Nʼadɔfoɔ nyinaa mu no, ɔbiara nni hɔ a ɔkyekyere ne werɛ. Nʼayɔnkofoɔ nyinaa adi no hwammɔ Wɔayɛ nʼatamfoɔ.

‌ʻOku ne tangi mamahi ʻi he pō, pea ʻoku ʻi hono kouʻahe ʻa hono loʻimata; ʻi heʻene ngaahi kaumeʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke fakafiemālie ia: kuo fai kākā ʻa ʻene ngaahi kaumeʻa kotoa pē kiate ia, kuo nau hoko ko hono ngaahi fili.

3 Amanehunu ne adwumaden akyi no, Yuda kɔ nnommumfa mu. Ɔte amanaman no mu na ɔnni ahomegyebea Wɔn a wɔtaa no nyinaa ati no wɔ nʼahokyere mu.

Kuo ʻalu ʻa Siuta ki he pōpula, koeʻuhi ko e mamahi pea koeʻuhi ko e ngāue lahi: ʻoku ne nofo mo e hiteni, ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻilo ha fiemālie: naʻe maʻu ia ʻe he kau fakatanga kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi potu lausiʻi.

4 Akwan a ɛkɔ Sion no di awerɛhoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ obiara nkɔ nʼafahyɛ ase. Nʼapono nyinaa adeda mpan, na nʼasɔfoɔ si apinie, ne mmabaawa di yea, na ɔwɔ yeadie a emu yɛ den.

‌ʻOku tangi ʻae ngaahi hala ʻo Saione, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ha niʻihi ke haʻu ki he ngaahi kātoanga mamafa: ʻoku lala hono ngaahi matapā kotoa pē: ʻoku mafulu ʻene kau taulaʻeiki, ʻoku mamahiʻia ʻene kau tāupoʻou, pea ʻoku ne ʻi he kona.

5 Nʼatamfoɔ abɛyɛ ne wuranom; wɔn a wɔ ne no ayɛ dom ho adwo wɔn. Awurade ama awerɛhoɔ aba ne so nʼamumuyɛ bebrebe enti. Ne mma kɔ nnommumfa mu. Wɔayɛ nneduafoɔ ama ɔtamfoɔ.

‌ʻOku māʻolunga ʻa hono ngaahi fili, ʻoku tupu lelei hono ngaahi fili; he kuo fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe Sihova koeʻuhi ko e lahi ʻo ʻene ngaahi angahala: kuo ʻalu ʻene fānau ki he pōpula ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fili.

6 Animuonyam nyinaa atu afiri Ɔbabaa Sion so kɔ. Ne mmapɔmma ayɛ sɛ aforoteɛ a wɔnnya adidibea; na wɔde mmerɛyɛ adwane wɔ wɔn ataafoɔ anim.

Pea kuo mole ʻae hoihoifua kotoa pē mei he ʻofefine ʻo Saione: kuo hoko ʻa ʻene ngaahi houʻeiki ʻo hangē ko e fanga haʻate ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻilo ha potu ke kai, pea kuo nau hola taʻehamālohi ʻi he ʻao ʻo ia ʻoku tuli.

7 Nʼamanehunu ne ananteananteɛ nna mu no, Yerusalem kae ademudeɛ nyinaa a na ɛwɔ no wɔ nna a atwam no mu. Ne nkurɔfoɔ kɔtɔɔ ɔtamfoɔ no nsa mu no, na obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛboa no. Nʼatamfoɔ de wɔn ani hwɛɛ no na wɔseree ne sɛeɛ.

Naʻe manatu ʻe Selūsalema ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene mahaki mo ʻene ngaahi mamahi, ʻa ʻene meʻa mālie kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa ne maʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa, ʻaia naʻe tō ʻa ʻene kakai ki he nima ʻoe fili, pea naʻe ʻikai ha tokoni kiate ia: naʻe mamata ʻae kau fili kiate ia pea nau taukae ki hono ngaahi ʻaho tapu.

8 Yerusalem ayɛ bɔne kɛseɛ enti ne ho agu fi. Wɔn a wɔdi no ni no sopa no, ɛfiri sɛ wɔahunu nʼadagya; ɔno ankasa gu ahome na ɔdane nʼani.

Kuo fai kovi lahi ʻe Selūsalema ko ia kuo fetukutuku ai ia: ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia ʻoku nau manuki ki ai, koeʻuhi kuo nau mamata ki heʻene telefua: ʻio, ʻoku ne mafulu pea foki ki mui.

9 Nʼafideyɛ atu aka ne ntadeɛ mu; wannwene ne daakye ho. Nʼasehweɛ yɛ nwanwa; obiara ankyekyere ne werɛ. “Ao Awurade hwɛ mʼamanehunu, ɛfiri sɛ ɔtamfoɔ adi nkonim.”

‌ʻOku ʻi hono kapaʻi kofu ʻā ʻene ʻuli; ʻoku ʻikai ha manatu ʻiate ia ki hono ngataʻanga; ko ia naʻa ne tō hifo fakamanavahē: naʻe ʻikai ʻiate ia ha taha ke fakafiemālie. ʻE Sihova ke ke ʻafio ki heʻeku mamahi: he kuo fakahikihiki ʻe ia ia, ʻe he fili.

10 Ɔtamfoɔ no de ne nsa too nʼademudeɛ nyinaa so; ɔhunuu sɛ amanaman rehyɛne ne kronkronbea hɔ, nnipa a woabra sɛ wɔnnhyɛne wʼasafo mu no.

Kuo mafao ʻae fili ʻa hono nima ki heʻene ngaahi meʻa lelei kotoa pē: he kuo ne mamata naʻe hū ʻae hiteni ki hono potu tapu, ʻaia naʻa ke fekau, ke ʻoua naʻa nau hoko atu ki hoʻo kakai.

11 Ne nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa si apinie ɛberɛ a wɔrepɛ aduane; wɔde wɔn ademudeɛ sesa aduane de nya ahoɔden. “Ao, Awurade, hwɛ na dwene me ho, ɛfiri sɛ wɔbu me animtia.”

‌ʻOku mafulu ʻa ʻene kakai kotoa pē, ʻoku nau kumi mā, kuo nau foaki ʻenau ngaahi meʻa lelei ko e meʻakai, ke tokoni ʻae laumālie: “ʻE Sihova ke ke ʻafio pea vakai; he kuo u hoko ʻo fakalielia.”

12 “Ɛmfa mo ho anaa, mo a motwam hɔ nyinaa? Monhwɛ na monhunu. Ɛyea bi wɔ hɔ a ɛte sɛ me deɛ a wɔma ɛbaa me soɔ yi anaa? Deɛ Awurade de baa me so wɔ nʼabufuhyeɛ da no.

“Ko ha meʻa noa pe eni kiate kimoutolu, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ange? Vakai, pea mamata, pe ʻoku ai ha mamahi ʻo hangē ko ʻeku mamahi, ʻaia ʻoku fai kiate au, ʻaia kuo fakamamahi ʻaki au ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hono houhau lahi.

13 “Ɔsomaa ogya firi ɔsoro, ma ɛbaa me nnompe mu. Ɔsum afidie maa me nan na ɔsane me kɔɔ mʼakyi. Ɔyɛɛ me pasaa, metɔɔ bira da mu nyinaa.

“Kuo ne fakahifo mei ʻolunga ʻae afi ki hoku ngaahi hui, pea ʻoku ne mālohi ki ai: kuo ne fola ha kupenga ki hoku vaʻe; kuo ne fakatafokiʻi au ki mui: kuo ne ngaohi au ko e liʻaki mo e vaivai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē.

14 “Woakyekyere me bɔne sɛ adesoa; ɔde ne nsa nwene bɔɔ mu. Abɛda me kɔn mu na Awurade atwe mʼahoɔden. Ɔde me ahyɛ wɔn a merentumi nnyina wɔn anim no nsa.

“Ko e noʻo ʻo ʻeku ngaahi angahala, kuo haʻi ʻaki hono nima: ʻoku nau fihi, pea ʻoku aʻu hake ki hoku kia: kuo ne pule ke hinga ʻa ʻeku mālohi, kuo tukuange au ʻe Sihova ki honau nima, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u mafai ke tuʻu hake.

15 “Awurade apo ahoɔdenfoɔ a wɔwɔ me ntam nyinaa; wafrɛ akodɔm atia me sɛ wɔmmɛdwɛre me mmeranteɛ. Awurade atiatia Ɔbabaa Yuda Bunu so wɔ ne nsakyiamena hɔ.

“Kuo malaki hifo ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻeku kau tangata mālohi kotoa pē, ʻi hoku haoʻanga: kuo ne ui ha fakataha kiate au ke taʻomia ʻeku kau talavou: kuo molomoloki ʻe Sihova ʻae tāupoʻou, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Siuta, ʻo hangē ʻi ha tataʻoʻanga uaine.

16 “Yeinom enti na mesu na nisuo adware me. Obiara mmɛn a ɔbɛkyekye me werɛ. Deɛ ɔbɛhyɛ me honhom den nni hɔ. Me mma agyigya ɛfiri sɛ ɔtamfoɔ no adi nkonim.”

“Koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ʻoku ou tangi; ko hoku mata, ko hoku mata ʻoku tafe hifo ʻi he vai, koeʻuhi ʻoku mamaʻo meiate au ʻae fakafiemālie naʻe totonu ke tokoni hoku laumālie: ʻoku liʻaki pe ʻeku fānau, koeʻuhi naʻe mālohi mai ʻae fili.”

17 Sion trɛ ne nsa mu nanso obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛkyekye ne werɛ Awurade ahyɛ ama Yakob sɛ ne mfɛfoɔ bɛyɛ nʼatamfoɔ; Yerusalem abɛyɛ afideɛ wɔ wɔn mu.

“ʻOku mafao atu ʻe Saione ʻa hono nima, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha niʻihi ke fakafiemālie kiate ia: kuo fekau ʻe Sihova kia Sēkope, ke takatakai ia ʻe hono ngaahi fili: ʻoku hangē ha fefine mahaki ʻa Selūsalema ʻiate kinautolu.

18 “Awurade yɛ ɔteneneeni, nanso manni nʼahyɛdeɛ so. Montie, mo amanaman nyinaa monhwɛ me yea. Me mmeranteɛ ne mmabaawa kɔ nnommumfa mu.

“ʻOku māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova; he kuo u fai talangataʻa ki heʻene fekau; ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu ʻae kakai kotoa pē fanongo, pea mou vakai ki heʻeku mamahi: kuo ʻalu ʻeku kau tāupoʻou mo ʻeku kau talavou ki he pōpula.

19 “Mefrɛɛ mʼapamfoɔ nanso wɔyii me maeɛ. Mʼasɔfoɔ ne me mpanimfoɔ ase tɔreɛ wɔ kuropɔn no mu, ɛberɛ a wɔrepɛ aduane adi na wɔanwuwu.

“Ne u ui ki heʻeku kau mamana, ka naʻa nau kākaaʻi au: ko ʻeku kau taulaʻeiki mo ʻeku kau mātuʻa naʻa nau tukuange ʻa honau laumālie ʻi he kolo, ʻi heʻenau kei kumi meʻakai ke fakafiemālie honau laumālie.

20 “Ao Awurade, hwɛ me mmɔborɔ! Meredi ɛyea wɔ me mu, na mʼakoma mu nso menni ahotɔ, ɛfiri sɛ mayɛ otuatefoɔ kɛseɛ. Akofena hyɛ me awerɛhoɔ wɔ abɔntene so; efie nso yɛ owuo nko ara.

“ʻAfio mai ʻe Sihova, he ʻoku ou mamahi: ʻoku ngaue mamahi hoku fatu; kuo liliu hoku loto ʻiate au; he kuo u fai talangataʻa ʻaupito; ʻituʻa a ʻoku fakamasiva ʻe he heletā, pea ʻoku ʻi he loto fale ʻae mate.

21 “Nnipa ate mʼapinisie, nanso obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛkyekye me werɛ. Mʼatamfoɔ nyinaa ate mʼamanehunu wɔn ani gye deɛ woayɛ no ho. Ma nna a woahyɛ no mmra sɛdeɛ wɔbɛyɛ sɛ me.

“Kuo nau fanongo ʻoku ou mafulu: ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke fakafiemālie kiate au, kuo fanongo ʻa hoku ngaahi fili kotoa pē ki heʻeku mamahi; ʻoku nau fiefia koeʻuhi kuo ke fai ia: he te ke fakahokosia ʻae ʻaho kuo ke tuʻutuʻuni, pea te nau hoko pe ʻo hangē ko au.

22 “Fa wɔn atirimuɔdensɛm nyinaa si wʼanim; na wo ne wɔn nni sɛdeɛ wo ne me adie ɛsiane mʼamumuyɛ no enti. Mʼapinisie dɔɔso na mʼakoma aboto.”

“Tuku ke hoko ki ho ʻao ʻa ʻenau ngaahi angahala kotoa pē; pea ke fai kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ke fai kiate au, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku ngaahi angahala kotoa pē: he ʻoku lahi ʻeku mafulu, pea ʻoku vaivai hoku loto.”
