Hesekiel 33:1-33
33 Na Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ:
2 “Onipa ba, wo ne wo man mma nkasa+ na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ,“‘Fa no sɛ mede sekan reba asaase bi so,+ ɛnna asaase no sofo nyinaa ayɛ nokoro ayi ɔbarima bi sɛ wɔn wɛmfo;
3 bere a ohui sɛ sekan no reba asaase no so no, ɔbɔɔ abɛn de bɔɔ ɔman no kɔkɔ.+
4 Sɛ obi te abɛn no na wantie kɔkɔbɔ no,+ na sɛ sekan no bekum no* a, obedi ɔno ara ne mogya ho fɔ.*+
5 Ɔtee abɛn no, nanso wantie kɔkɔbɔ no. Enti obedi ɔno ara ne mogya ho fɔ.* Sɛ otiee kɔkɔbɔ no a, anka obegye ne ho* nkwa.
6 “‘Na sɛ ɔwɛmfo no hu sɛ sekan no reba na wammɔ abɛn+ amfa ammɔ ɔman no kɔkɔ na sekan no bekum wɔn mu baako* a, ɔno de, ne bɔne nti na obewu, nanso ɔwɛmfo no nsam na mebisa ne mogya afi.’*+
7 “Na wo, onipa ba, mede wo ayɛ Israel fi wɛmfo, enti tie m’anom asɛm na bɔ wɔn kɔkɔ ma me.+
8 Sɛ meka kyerɛ ɔbɔnefo sɛ, ‘Ɔbɔnefo, owu na wubewu,’+ na woankasa ankyerɛ ɔbɔnefo no ammɔ no kɔkɔ amma wannyae ne bɔne a, obewu ne bɔne mu,+ nanso ne mogya de, mebisa afi wo hɔ.
9 Na sɛ wobɔ ɔbɔnefo kɔkɔ sɛ ɔnsan mfi ne kwammɔne so na wansesa a, obewu ne bɔne mu,+ na wo de, wubegye wo ho* nkwa.+
10 “Na wo, onipa ba, ka kyerɛ Israel fi sɛ, ‘Moka sɛ: “Yɛn atuatew ne yɛn bɔne mu yɛ duru wɔ yɛn so na ama yɛresɛe,+ enti yɛbɛyɛ dɛn anya nkwa?”’+
11 Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, Awurade Tumfo Yehowa asɛm ni: ‘“Mete ase yi, m’ani nnye ɔbɔnefo wu ho;+ nea mepɛ ne sɛ ɔbɔnefo bɛsesa n’akwan+ na wanya nkwa.+ Enti monsan, monsan mfi mo akwammɔne so.+ O Israel fi, adɛn nti koraa na ɛsɛ sɛ muwuwu?”’+
12 “Na wo, onipa ba, ka kyerɛ wo man mma sɛ, ‘Sɛ ɔtreneeni tew atua a, ne trenee no rentumi nnye no.+ Na sɛ ɔbɔnefo twe ne ho fi ne bɔne ho a, ne bɔne no remma ɔnhwe ase.+ Saa ara na da a ɔtreneeni bɛyɛ bɔne no, ne trenee no rentumi nnye no nkwa.+
13 Sɛ meka kyerɛ ɔtreneeni sɛ: “Wubenya nkwa,” na ɔde ne ho to ne trenee so na ɔyɛ nneɛma bɔne*+ a, adetrenee a ɔyɛe nyinaa wɔrenkae bio, na mmom ne bɔne nti, obewu.+
14 “‘Na sɛ meka kyerɛ ɔbɔnefo sɛ: “Owu na wubewu,” na ɔtwe ne ho fi ne bɔne ho na odi asɛntrenee yɛ nea ɛteɛ,+
15 na ɔbɔnefo no de ade a ne yɔnko de sii awowa san ma no,+ otua nea wabɔ nkurɔfo apoo agye,+ odi ahyɛde a ɛma nkwa no so, na wanyɛ bɔne a, nkwa na obenya,+ ɔrenwu.
16 Ne bɔne a wayɛ no, ɛho asodi biara renna no so.*+ Esiane sɛ wadi asɛntrenee ayɛ nea ɛteɛ nti, nkwa na obenya.’+
17 “Wo manfo de, nea wɔka ne sɛ, ‘Yehowa akwan nteɛ.’ Nanso wɔn mmom na wɔn akwan nteɛ.
18 “Sɛ ɔtreneeni twe ne ho fi ne trenee ho kɔyɛ nneɛma bɔne a, nea wayɛ nti obewu.+
19 Na sɛ ɔbɔnefo twe ne ho fi ne kwammɔne so bedi asɛntrenee na ɔyɛ nea ɛteɛ a, nea wayɛ nti obenya nkwa.+
20 “O Israel fi, moka sɛ, ‘Yehowa akwan nteɛ.’+ Mebu mo mu biara atɛn sɛnea n’akwan te.”
21 Afei bere a wotuu yɛn fii yɛn asaase so no, n’afe a ɛto so 12, bosome a ɛto so du no da a ɛto so anum no, ɔbarima bi a na waguan afi Yerusalem baa me nkyɛn+ bɛka kyerɛɛ me sɛ: “Wɔasɛe kurow no!”+
22 Ansa na ɔbarima a oguanee no reba no, Yehowa honhom* baa me so anwummere no, na obuee m’ano ansa na ɔbarima no reba me nkyɛn anɔpa; m’ano buei ma mitumi kasae.+
23 Afei Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ:
24 “Onipa ba, wɔn a wɔtete mmeae a asɛe yi+ reka Israel asaase ho asɛm sɛ, ‘Ná Abraham yɛ obaakofo nanso asaase no bɛyɛɛ ne dea.+ Yɛn de, yɛdɔɔso; yɛn na wɔde asaase no ama yɛn sɛ yɛn agyapade.’
25 “Afei ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka ni: “Mudi mogya ka nam ho,+ moma mo ani so kyerɛ mo abosom fĩ,* na muhwie mogya gu.+ Enti ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na asaase no atumi ayɛ mo dea?
26 Mode mo ho ato mo sekan so,+ moyɛ akyiwade, na obiara gu ne yɔnko yere ho fĩ.+ Enti ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na asaase no atumi ayɛ mo dea?”’+
27 “Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka ni: “Mete ase yi, wɔn a wɔtete mmeae a asɛe no bewuwu sekan ano; na wɔn a wɔte wuram no, mɛma mmoa bɔne awe wɔn; wɔn a wɔtete abannennen ne abodan mu no, yare bekunkum wɔn.+
28 Mɛma asaase no asɛe pasaa+ na n’ahohoahoa no to betwa, na Israel mmepɔw bɛdan amamfo,+ na obiara rentwam wɔ hɔ.
29 Sɛ akyiwade a wɔayɛ nyinaa nti,+ mesɛe asaase no pasaa ma ɛdan amamfo+ a, wobehu sɛ mene Yehowa.”’
30 “Na wo, onipa ba, wo manfo rekeka wo ho nsɛm wɔ afasu ho ne afi apon ano.+ Obiara ka kyerɛ ne nua sɛ, ‘Mommra mmetie asɛm a efi Yehowa hɔ.’
31 Wɔbɛboaboa wɔn ho ano abɛtenatena w’anim te sɛ me man; wɔbɛte wo nsɛm, nanso wɔrenni so.+ Wɔde wɔn ano dɛfɛdɛfɛ wo,* nanso wɔn koma di mfaso bɔne akyi.
32 Hwɛ, wɔn ani so no, wote sɛ obi a ɔto ɔdɔ nnwom, obi a ne nne yɛ dɛ a onim sanku bɔ yiye. Wɔbɛte wo nsɛm, nanso obiara remfa nyɛ adwuma.
33 Na sɛ enya ba mu a—ba de, ɛbɛba mu nso—wobehu sɛ odiyifo bi tenaa wɔn mu.”+
