< Zechariah 10 >

1 Ask ye of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] Jehovah that maketh lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.
Mummisa Awurade hɔ nsu asusowbere mu; ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔyɛ osu ne mu ahum. Ɔma osu tɔ ma nnipa nyinaa, ne nnɔbae nso ma obiara.
2 For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.
Ahoni no ka nnaadaasɛm, nkɔmhyɛfo nya anisoadehu a ɛyɛ atoro; wɔde nkontomposɛm kyerɛ dae ase, wɔma awerɛkyekye kwa. Enti nnipa no nenam te sɛ nguan a wonni ɔhwɛfo na wɔhyɛ wɔn so.
3 Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle.
“Me bo afuw nguanhwɛfo no yiye, na mɛtwe ntuanofo no aso. Na Asafo Awurade bɛhwɛ ne nguankuw a wɔyɛ Yudafi no, na wayɛ wɔn sɛ anuonyam pɔnkɔ wɔ ɔsa mu.
4 From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.
Tweatibo befi Yuda mu, na ntamadan pɛe befi ne mu, ɔsa mu tadua befi Yuda mu, na sodifo nyinaa nso saa ara.
5 And they shall be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them; and the riders on horses shall be confounded.
Wɔbɛbɔ mu ayɛ sɛ dɔmmarima a wotiatia mmorɔn so dontori mu wɔ ɔko mu. Esiane sɛ Awurade ka wɔn ho no nti, wɔbɛko na wɔadi apɔnkɔsotefo no so.
6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will hear them.
“Mɛhyɛ Yudafi den na magye Yosefi no nkwa. Mede wɔn besi wɔn dedaw mu efisɛ me yam hyehye me wɔ wɔn ho. Wɔbɛyɛ te sɛ nea mempoo wɔn mpo, na mene Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn, na megye wɔn so.
7 And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine; yea, their children shall see it, and rejoice; their heart shall be glad in Jehovah.
Efraimfo bɛyɛ sɛ dɔmmarima, wɔn ani begye te sɛ nea wɔanom nsa. Wɔn mma behu na wɔn ani begye; wobedi ahurusi wɔ wɔn koma mu wɔ Awurade mu.
8 I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they shall increase as they have increased.
Mɛto nsa afrɛ wɔn aboaboa wɔn ano. Ampa ara megye wɔn bio; wɔbɛdɔɔso sɛ kan no.
9 And I will sow them among the peoples; and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and shall return.
Ɛwɔ mu, mɛhwete wɔn mu akɔ aman so, nanso wɔbɛkae me wɔ akyirikyiri nsase so. Wɔne wɔn mma bɛtena nkwa mu, na wɔbɛsan aba.
10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and [place] shall not be found for them.
Mede wɔn befi Misraim aba mɛboa wɔn ano afi Asiria. Mede wɔn bɛba Gilead ne Lebanon, na wɔrensen hɔ.
11 And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will smite the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up; and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart.
Wɔbɛfa ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ po mu, nanso wobedi po asorɔkye a ehuru no so. Nil mu nsu nyinaa bɛyow. Asiria ahomaso nso wɔbɛbrɛ no ase na Misraim ahempema betwa mu akɔ.
12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Jehovah.
Mɛhyɛ wɔn den wɔ Awurade mu na ne din mu na wɔbɛnantew,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.
