< Zechariah 10 >

1 Petition before the Lord for rain in the latter time, and the Lord will produce snows and will give showers of rain to them, to each blade 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 images have been speaking what is useless, and the diviners have seen a lie, and the dreamers have been speaking false hope: they have comforted in vain. For this reason, they have been led away like a flock; they will be afflicted, because they have 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 My fury has been kindled over the shepherds, and I will visit upon the he-goats. For the Lord of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and he has set them like the horse of his glory in the war.
“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 will go forth the angle, from him the wooden peg, from him the bow of battle, from him every exactor at the same time.
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 will be like the strong, trampling the mud of the ways in battle. And they will fight, for the Lord is with them. And the riders of the horses will 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 convert them, because I will have mercy on them. And they will be as they were when I had not cast them away. For I am the Lord 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 will be like the strong of Ephraim, and their heart will rejoice as if by wine, and their sons will see and will rejoice, and their heart will exult in the Lord.
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 whistle for them, and I will gather them together, because I have redeemed them. And I will multiply them, as they had been multiplied before.
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 from far away they will remember me. And they will live with their sons, and they will 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 And I will lead them back from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them from among the Assyrians, and I will lead them to the land of Gilead and Lebanon, and no place will be left that has not been found by 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 over the narrow passage of the sea, and he will strike the waves of the sea, and all the depths of the river will be confounded, and the arrogance of Assyria will be brought low, and the scepter of Egypt will withdraw.
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 I will strengthen them in the Lord, and they will walk in his name, says the Lord.
Mɛhyɛ wɔn den wɔ Awurade mu na ne din mu na wɔbɛnantew,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.
