Daniel 11
1 Also I, in ye first yere of Darius of ye Medes, euen I stood to incourage and to strengthen him.
Na Mediani Dario ahenni afe a edi kan no, misii gyinae sɛ megyina nʼakyi na mabɔ ne ho ban.)
2 And now wil I shew thee ye trueth, Behold, there shall stand vp yet three Kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be farre richer then they all: and by his strength, and by his riches he shall stirre vp all against the realme of Grecia.
“Na afei, mɛka mu nokware akyerɛ wo: ahemfo baasa bɛsɔre wɔ Persia, wɔn akyi no, nea ɔto so anan a obenya ne ho akyɛn nkae no bɛsɔre. Ɔde nʼahonya mu ahoɔden behwanyan obiara atia Hela ahenni.
3 But a mightie King shall stand vp, that shall rule with great dominion, and doe according to his pleasure.
Afei ɔhene kɛse bi bɛsɔre wɔ tumi mu a ɔbɛyɛ nea ɔpɛ.
4 And when he shall stand vp, his kingdome shall be broken, and shall be deuided towarde the foure windes of heauen: and not to his posteritie, nor according to his dominion, which he ruled: for his kingdome shall be pluckt vp, euen to be for others besides those.
Ne ba no akyi, wɔbɛkyekyɛ nʼaheman no mu anan. Ɛrenkɔ nʼasefo nkyɛn, na ɔrennya tumi a na ɔwɔ no, efisɛ wobetutu nʼaheman no ase de ama afoforo.
5 And ye King of ye South shalbe mightie, and one of his princes, and shall preuaile against him, and beare rule: his dominio shalbe a great dominion.
“Ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no bɛyɛ den, nanso nʼasafohene no mu baako bɛyɛ den asen no na ɔde tumi a ɛyɛ den bedi ahemman no so.
6 And in the ende of yeeres they shalbe ioyned together: for the Kings daughter of ye South shall come to the King of the North to make an agreement, but she shall not reteine the power of the arme, neither shall he continue, nor his arme: but she shall be deliuered to death, and they that brought her, and he that begate her, and he that comforted her in these times.
Mfe bi akyi no, wɔbɛyɛ ayɔnko. Ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no babea bɛkɔ ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no nkyɛn akɔyɛ nnamfofa apam; nanso ɔbabea no renkura ne tumi mu bio, na ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam ne ne tumi nso rennyina. Saa mmere no mu no, wobeyi ɔhene babea, adehye a wɔka ne ho, nʼagya ne nea ogyinaa nʼakyi nyinaa no ama.
7 But out of the bud of her rootes shall one stand vp in his stead, which shall come with an armie, and shall enter into the fortresse of the King of the North, and doe with them as he list, and shall preuaile,
“Obi a ofi anafo fam babea abusua mu bɛsɔre asi nʼanan mu. Na ɔde dɔm bɛba abɛhyɛn ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam aban no mu na ɔne wɔn ako na wadi wɔn so nkonim.
8 And shall also carie captiues into Egypt their gods with their molten images, and with their precious vessels of siluer and of golde, and he shall continue more yeeres then the King of the North.
Ɔbɛfa wɔn anyame, ahoni a wɔde dade ayɛ ne wɔn ademude a wɔde dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ akɔ Misraim. Na mfe bi mu no, ɔbɛtwe ne ho afi ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no ho.
9 So the King of ye South shall come into his kingdome, and shall returne into his owne land.
Afei ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no bɛtow ahyɛ ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no so, nanso ɔbɛsan nʼakyi akɔ nʼankasa asase so.
10 Wherefore his sonnes shall be stirred vp, and shall assemble a mightie great armie: and one shall come, and ouerflowe, and passe through: then shall he returne, and be stirred vp at his fortresse.
Ne mmabarima besiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko na wɔde asraafo dɔm kɛse bɛkɔ te sɛ asu a ayiri, akɔko ara akodu atamfo no aban no ho.
11 And the King of the South shall be angrie, and shall come foorth, and fight with him, euen with the King of the North: for he shall set foorth a great multitude, and the multitude shall be giuen into his hand.
“Afei ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no de abufuw kɛse bɛsɔre na wako atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam a ɔno nso wɔ asraafo dɔm kɛse, na obedi wɔn so nkonim.
12 Then the multitude shall be proude, and their heart shall be lifted vp: for hee shall cast downe thousands: but he shall not still preuaile.
Sɛ wɔde asraafo no kɔ a, ahantan bɛhyɛ anafo fam hene no ma, na obekunkum mpempem, nanso ne nkonimdi no renkyɛ.
13 For the King of the North shall returne, and shall set foorth a greater multitude then afore, and shall come foorth (after certeine yeeres) with a mightie armie, and great riches.
Ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam nso bɛboa asraafo afoforo a wɔdɔɔso sen kan de no, na mfirihyia bebree akyi no, ɔde asraafo dɔm kɛse a wɔwɔ akode betu ɔsa.
14 And at the same time there shall many stand vp against the King of the South: also the rebellious children of thy people shall exalt them selues to establish the vision, but they shall fall.
“Saa mmere no mu, bebree bɛsɔre atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam. Wɔn a wodi akakabensɛm wɔ wʼankasa wo nkurɔfo mu no bɛtew atua sɛnea ɛte wɔ anisoadehu no mu no, nanso wɔrenni nkonim.
15 So the King of the North shall come, and cast vp a mount, and take the strong citie: and the armes of the South shall not resist, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.
Afei ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no bɛba abesisi mpie na ɔbɛko agye kuropɔn a wɔagye ho ban no. Asraafo a wɔwɔ anafo fam no rennya ahoɔden nko, na wɔn a wɔyɛ den wɔ wɔn mu no mpo rentumi nnyina ɔko no ano.
16 But he that shall come, shall doe vnto him as he list, and none shall stand against him: and he shall stand in the pleasant land, which by his hand shalbe consumed.
Ɔfowni no bɛyɛ nea ɔpɛ na obiara rentumi nnyina nʼanim. Obegye Asase Fɛɛfɛ no abɔ so, na obenya tumi a ɔde bɛsɛe no.
17 Againe he shall set his face to enter with the power of his whole kingdome, and his confederates with him: thus shall he doe, and he shall giue him the daughter of women, to destroy her: but she shall not stande on his side, neither bee for him.
Ɔbɛyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔde ahoɔden a ɔwɔ wɔ nʼahenni no mu nyinaa bɛba, na afei ɔne ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no akɔyɛ nnamfofa apam. Ɔde ne babea bɛma no aware, na ɔnam so agu nʼahenni no, nanso nʼatirimpɔw yi renyɛ yiye na ɛremmoa no.
18 After this shall he turne his face vnto the yles, and shall take many, but a prince shall cause his shame to light vpon him, beside that he shall cause his owne shame to turne vpon himselfe.
Afei ɔde nʼani bɛkyerɛ mpoano aman so, na wadi mu bebree so nkonim, nanso, ɔsahene bi de ɔhene yi ahomaso bɛba awiei na wadan abɔ no.
19 For he shall turne his face toward the fortes of his owne land: but he shall be ouerthrowen and fall, and be no more founde.
Eyi akyi no, ɔde nʼani bɛkyerɛ aban a ɛwɔ nʼasase so no, nanso obehintiw ahwe ase, na wɔrenhu no bio.
20 Then shall stand vp in his place in the glorie of the kingdome, one that shall raise taxes: but after fewe dayes he shall be destroyed, neither in wrath, nor in battell.
“Nea obedi nʼade no bɛsoma towgyeni, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obenya nea ɛbɛma nʼahenni no anuonyam atena hɔ. Mfirihyia kakra bi akyi no, wɔbɛsɛe no; nanso ɛremfi abufuw anaa ɔko mu.
21 And in his place shall stand vp a vile person, to whom they shall not giue the honour of the kingdome: but he shall come in peaceably, and obteine the kingdome by flatteries.
“Obi a wommu no na ɔnyɛ ɔdehye na obedi nʼade. Ɔbɛtow ahyɛ ahenni no so bere a so nnipa no asom adwo wɔn, na ɔde nnaadaa agye.
22 And the armes shall be ouerthrowen with a flood before him, and shall be broken: and also the prince of the couenant.
Afei ɔbɛtɔre asraafo dɔm a wontumi nkan wɔn dodow no ase. Wɔbɛsɛe asraafo no ne ɔhenebabarima a ɔhyɛ bɔhyɛ no ase no.
23 And after the league made with him, he shall worke deceitfully: for he shall come vp, and ouercome with a small people.
Wɔne no yɛ apam wie a, ɔnam nnaadaa kwan so benya nnipa kakraa bi na wapere tumi.
24 He shall enter into the quiet and plentifull prouince, and he shall doe that which his fathers haue not done, nor his fathers fathers: he shall deuide among them the pray and the spoyle, and the substance, yea, and he shall forecast his deuises against the strong holdes, euen for a time.
Sɛ amantam a wɔyɛ adefo no te nka sɛ wɔn asom adwo wɔn a, ɔbɛtow ahyɛ wɔn so, na nea nʼagyanom ne ne nenanom antumi anyɛ no, ɔbɛyɛ. Ɔbɛkyekyɛ asade ne ahonyade ama nʼakyidifo. Ɔbɛbɔ pɔw atu aban agu, nanso ɛbɛyɛ nna tiaa bi mu.
25 Also he shall stirre vp his power and his courage against the King of the South with a great armie, and the King of the South shall be stirred vp to battell with a very great and mightie armie: but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast and practise against him.
“Obenya asraafo dɔm kɛse na wanya ahoɔden ne akokoduru asɔre atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam. Ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no de asraafo a wɔdɔɔso na wɔyɛ den betu ɔsa, nanso ɔrentumi nnyina, esiane pɔw ahorow a wɔabɔ de atia no nti.
26 Yea, they that feede of the portion of his meate, shall destroy him: and his armie shall ouerflowe: and many shall fall, and be slaine.
Wɔn a ɔhene bɔ wɔn akɔnhama no bɛbɔ mmɔden sɛ wobehuan nʼase antweri; wobetwiw afa ɔhene no asraafo no so, na bebree nso bɛtotɔ wɔ ɔko mu.
27 And both these Kings hearts shall be to do mischiefe, and they shall talke of deceite at one table: but it shall not auaile: for yet the ende shall be at the time appointed.
Ahemfo baanu a bɔne adi wɔn ti mu dɛm bɛtena ɔpon baako ho, adi atoro akyerɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho, nanso ɛrenkosi hwee, efisɛ awiei no bɛba ne bere a wɔahyɛ no.
28 Then shall he returne into his land with great substance: for his heart shall be against the holy couenant: so shall he doe and returne to his owne land.
Ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no de ahonyade bebree bɛsan akɔ ne man mu, nanso ne koma rempɛ apam kronkron no. Ɔbɛyɛ biribi atia apam kronkron no na wasan akɔ ne man mu.
29 At the time appointed he shall returne, and come toward the South: but the last shall not be as the first.
“Bere a wɔahyɛ no du a, ɔbɛtow ahyɛ anafo aman no so bio, nanso saa bere yi de, ɛrenyɛ yiye mma no sɛ kan no.
30 For the shippes of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shalbe sorie and returne, and freat against the holy couenant: so shall he doe, he shall euen returne and haue intelligence with them that forsake the holy couenant.
Ahyɛn a wofi aman a ɛwɔ mpoano wɔ atɔe fam no bɛko atia no, na nʼabasa mu bebu. Enti ɔbɛsan nʼakyi na ɔde nʼabufuw akowie apam kronkron no so, na ɔne wɔn a wɔpo apam kronkron no bɛyɛ baako.
31 And armes shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the Sanctuarie of strength, and shall take away the dayly sacrifice, and they shall set vp the abominable desolation.
“Na nʼasraafo bɛsɔre. Wobegu asɔredan no aban ho fi, na wɔagu daa daa afɔrebɔ no. Wɔde abusude a ɛde ɔsɛe ba besi anan mu.
32 And such as wickedly breake ye couenant, shall he cause to sinne by flatterie: but the people that do know their God, shall preuaile and prosper.
Ɔde nnaadaa bɛkɔ so asɛe wɔn a wobu apam no so, nanso wɔn a wonim wɔn Nyankopɔn no bɛsɔre atia no denneennen.
33 And they that vnderstand among the people, shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by sword, and by flame, by captiuitie and by spoile many dayes.
“Anyansafo bɛkyerɛkyerɛ bebree, nanso bere bi mu no, wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano, wɔbɛhyew wɔn, wɔbɛfa wɔn nnommum anaa wɔbɛfom wɔn nneɛma.
34 Nowe when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a litle helpe: but many shall cleaue vnto them fainedly.
Sɛ wɔhwe ase a, wobenya mmoa kakra, na bebree a wonni nokware bɛkɔ akɔdɔm wɔn.
35 And some of the of vnderstanding shall fall to trie them, and to purge, and to make them white, till the time be out: for there is a time appointed.
Anyansafo no mu bi behintihintiw. Ɛnam so bɛma wɔasiesie wɔn, ahohoro wɔn ho fi na wɔayɛ wɔn a wɔn ho nni nkekae akosi awiei bere no, efisɛ ɛbɛba bere a wɔahyɛ no.
36 And the King shall doe what him list: he shall exalt himselfe, and magnifie himselfe against all, that is God, and shall speake marueilous things against ye God of gods, and shall prosper, till ye wrath be accomplished: for ye determination is made.
“Ɔhene no bɛyɛ nea ɔpɛ, ɔbɛma ne ho so, ayɛ ne ho ɔkɛse asen onyame biara, na waka nea obi ntee da afa anyame mu Nyame no ho. Obenya nkɔso akosi sɛ abufuw bere no bɛba awiei, efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ nea wɔahyɛ ato hɔ no ba mu.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desires of women, nor care for any God: for he shall magnifie himselfe aboue all.
Obebu nʼagyanom anyame animtiaa. Ɔremfa mmea no nyame a wɔdɔ no anaa onyame foforo biara nyɛ hwee, na mmom ɔbɛma ne ho so aboro wɔn nyinaa so.
38 But in his place shall he honour the god Mauzzim, and the god whom his fathers knewe not, shall he honour with golde and with siluer, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
Ɔde aban no nyame, nyame a nʼagyanom nnim besi wɔn anan mu; ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, aboɔdemmo ne akyɛde a ɛsom bo bedi no ni.
39 Thus shall he do in the holdes of Mauzzim with a strange god whom he shall acknowledge: he shall increase his glory, and shall cause them to rule ouer many and shall deuide ye land for gaine.
Ɔde mmoa a onya fi ananafo nyame hɔ no bɛtow ahyɛ aban a ɛyɛ den pa ara so, na wɔn a wogye no to mu no, ɔbɛhyɛ wɔn anuonyam. Obedi nnipa bebree so, na ɔbɛkyekyɛ asase no mu de ayɛ akatua.
40 And at ye end of time shall the King of the South push at him, and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlewind with charets, and with horsemen, and with many ships, and he shall enter into ye countreis, and shall ouerflow and passe through.
“Awiei no du a, ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafo fam no ne no bɛko, na ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no nso de nteaseɛnam, apɔnkɔsotefo ne po so asraafo bebree behyia no. Ɔbɛtow ahyɛ aman bebree so na watwiw afa wɔn so te sɛ nsuyiri.
41 He shall enter also into the pleasant land, and many countreis shalbe ouerthrowen: but these shall escape out of his hand, euen Edom and Moab, and the chiefe of the children of Ammon.
Ɔbɛtow ahyɛ Asase Fɛfɛ no so. Aman bebree bɛtotɔ ase, nanso wobegye Edom, Moab ne Amon mu fa kɛse afi ne nsam.
42 He shall stretch foorth his hands also vpon the countreis, and ye land of Egypt shall not escape.
Ɔde ne tumi bɛkɔ aman bebree so; na Misraim remfi mu tɔtrɔtɔɔ.
43 But he shall haue power ouer the treasures of golde and of siluer, and ouer all the precious things of Egypt, and of the Lybians, and of the blacke Mores where he shall passe.
Ɔde ne nsa bɛto ademude a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne Misraim ahonyade nyinaa so, na Libiafo ne Etiopiafo ayɛ nʼasomfo.
44 But the tidings out of the East and the North shall trouble him: therefore he shall goe foorth with great wrath to destroy and roote out many.
Nanso amanneɛ a ɔbɛte afi apuei ne atifi fam bɛbɔ no hu, na ɔde abufuwhyew befi akɔ akɔsɛe bebree atɔre wɔn ase.
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace betweene the seas in the glorious and holy mountaine, yet he shall come to his end, and none shall helpe him.
Ɔbɛhoro nʼadehye ntamadan wɔ po no ne bepɔw kronkron fɛɛfɛ no ntam. Na nʼawiei bɛba a ɔrennya mmoa biara.
