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 ahennie afe a ɛdi ɛkan no, meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ mɛgyina 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 nokorɛ akyerɛ wo: ahemfo mmiɛnsa bɛsɔre wɔ Persia, wɔn akyi no, deɛ ɔtɔ so ɛnan a ɔbɛnya ne ho akyɛn nkaeɛ no bɛsɔre. Ɔde nʼahonya mu ahoɔden bɛhwanyane obiara atia Hela ahennie.
3 But a mightie King shall stand vp, that shall rule with great dominion, and doe according to his pleasure.
Afei, ɔhene kɛseɛ bi bɛsɔre wɔ tumi mu a ɔbɛyɛ deɛ 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 ɛnan. Ɛrenkɔ nʼasefoɔ nkyɛn, na ɔrennya tumi a na ɔwɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔbɛtutu nʼaheman no ase de ama afoforɔ.
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 anafoɔ fam no bɛyɛ den, nanso nʼasafohene no mu baako bɛyɛ den asene no na ɔde tumi a ɛyɛ den bɛdi 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.
Mfeɛ bi akyi no, wɔbɛyɛ ayɔnkofoɔ. Ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam no ba baa bɛkɔ ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no nkyɛn akɔyɛ nnamfofa apam; nanso ɔbabaa no renkura ne tumi mu bio, na ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam ne ne tumi nso rennyina. Saa mmerɛ no mu no, ɔhene babaa, adehyeɛ a wɔka ne ho, nʼagya ne deɛ ɔgyinaa nʼakyi nyinaa no, wɔbɛyi wɔn 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 ɔfiri anafoɔ fam babaa abusua mu bɛsɔre asi nʼanan mu. Na ɔde dom bɛba abɛhyɛne 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, nsɛsodeɛ a wɔde dadeɛ ayɛ ne wɔn ademudeɛ a wɔde dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ akɔ Misraim. Na mfeɛ bi mu no, ɔbɛtwe ne ho afiri ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam 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 bɛto ahyɛ ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam no so, nanso ɔbɛsane 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 mmammarima bɛsiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko na wɔde akodɔm kɛseɛ bɛkɔ te sɛ nsuo a ayiri, akɔko ara akɔduru atamfoɔ 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 anafoɔ fam no de abufuo kɛseɛ bɛsɔre na wako atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam a ɔno nso wɔ akodɔm kɛseɛ, na ɔbɛdi 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 akodɔm no kɔ a, ahantan bɛhyɛ anafoɔ fam ɔhene no mu ma, na ɔbɛkunkum mpempem, nanso, ne nkonimdie no, ɛnkyɛre.
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 akodɔm foforɔ a wɔdɔɔso sene kane deɛ no, na mfirinhyia bebree akyi no, ɔde akodɔm kɛseɛ a wɔwɔ akodeɛ bɛtu 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 mmerɛ no mu, bebree bɛsɔre atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam. Wɔn a wɔdi akakabensɛm wɔ wʼankasa wo nkurɔfoɔ mu no bɛte atua sɛdeɛ ɛteɛ wɔ anisoadehunu 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 abɛsisi mpie na ɔbɛko agye kuropɔn a wagye ho ban. Akodɔm a wɔwɔ anafoɔ 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.
Ntohyɛsoni no bɛyɛ deɛ ɔpɛ na obiara ntumi nnyina nʼanim. Ɔbɛgye Asase Fɛɛfɛ no abɔ so, na ɔbɛnya 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 nʼahennie no mu nyinaa bɛba, na afei ɔne ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam no akɔyɛ nnamfofa apam. Ɔde ne babaa bɛma no awadeɛ, na ɔnam so agu nʼahennie no, nanso nʼatirimpɔ yi renyɛ yie 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 emu bebree so nkonim, nanso, ɔsahene bi de ɔhene yi ahomasoɔ bɛba awieeɛ na wadane 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.
Yei akyi no, ɔde nʼani bɛkyerɛ aban a ɛwɔ nʼasase so no, nanso ɔbɛsunti ahwe ase, na wɔrenhunu 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.
“Deɛ ɔbɛdi nʼadeɛ no bɛsoma ɔtogyeni, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛnya deɛ ɛbɛma nʼahennie no animuonyam atena hɔ. Mfirinhyia kakra bi akyi no, wɔbɛsɛe no; nanso ɛmfiri abufuo 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 wɔmmu no na ɔnnyɛ ɔdehyeɛ na ɔbɛdi nʼadeɛ. Ɔbɛto ahyɛ ahennie no so ɛberɛ a ɛso 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 akodɔm a wɔntumi nkan wɔn dodoɔ no ase. Wɔbɛsɛe akodɔm no ne ɔhene babarima 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 ɛkwan so bɛnya nnipa kakra 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 adefoɔ no te nka sɛ wɔn asom adwo wɔn a, ɔbɛto ahyɛ wɔn so, na deɛ nʼagyanom ne ne nananom antumi anyɛ no, ɔbɛyɛ. Ɔbɛkyekyɛ afodeɛ ne ahonyadeɛ ama nʼakyidifoɔ. Ɔbɛbɔ abantuo ho pɔ, nanso ɛbɛyɛ nna tiawa 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.
“Ɔbɛnya akodɔm kɛseɛ na wanya ahoɔden ne akokoɔduru asɔre atia ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam. Ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam no de akodɔm a wɔdɔɔso na wɔyɛ den bɛtu ɔsa, nanso, ɔrentumi nnyina, ɛsiane ɛpɔ ahodoɔ a wɔabɔ de atia no enti.
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 akɔnhoma no bɛbɔ mmɔden sɛ wɔbɛhwan nʼase; wɔbɛtwi afa ɔhene no asraafoɔ 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 mmienu a bɔne adi wɔn tiri mu dɛm bɛtena ɛpono baako ho, adi atorɔ akyerɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho, nanso ɛnkɔsi hwee, ɛfiri sɛ, awieeɛ no bɛba ne ɛberɛ 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 ahonyadeɛ bebree bɛsane akɔ ne ɔman mu, nanso, nʼakoma rempɛ apam kronkron no. Ɔbɛyɛ biribi atia apam kronkron no na wasane akɔ ne ɔman mu.
29 At the time appointed he shall returne, and come toward the South: but the last shall not be as the first.
“Ɛberɛ a wɔahyɛ no duru a, ɔbɛto ahyɛ anafoɔ aman so bio, nanso saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, ɛrenyɛ yie mma no sɛ kane 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 wɔfiri aman a ɛwɔ mpoano wɔ atɔeɛ fam no bɛko atia no, na nʼabasa mu bɛbu. Enti ɔbɛsane nʼakyi na ɔde nʼabufuo akɔwie 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 nʼasraadɔm bɛsɔre. Wɔbɛgu asɔredan no aban ho fi, na wɔagu daadaa afɔrebɔ no. Wɔde abusudeɛ a ɛde ɔsɛeɛ ba bɛsi 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 wɔbu apam no so, nanso wɔn a wɔnim wɔn Onyankopɔn no bɛsɔre atia no dendeenden.
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.
“Anyansafoɔ bɛkyerɛkyerɛ bebree, nanso, berɛ bi mu no, wɔbɛtotɔ akofena ano, wɔbɛhye 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, wɔbɛnya mmoa kakra, na bebree a wɔnni nokorɛ 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.
Anyansafoɔ no mu bi bɛsuntisunti. Ɛnam so bɛma wɔasiesie wɔn, ahohoro wɔn ho fi na wɔayɛ wɔn a wɔn ho nni nkekaawa akɔsi awieeɛ berɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ ɛbɛba ɛberɛ 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 deɛ ɔpɛ, ɔbɛma ne ho so, ayɛ ne ho kɛseɛ asene onyame biara, na waka deɛ obi ntee da afa anyame mu Onyame no ho. Ɔbɛnya nkɔsoɔ akɔsi sɛ abufuo berɛ no bɛba awieeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ deɛ 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.
Ɔbɛbu nʼagyanom anyame animtia. Ɔremfa mmaa no nyame a wɔdɔ no anaa onyame foforɔ 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 bɛsi wɔn anan mu; ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, aboɔdemmoɔ ne akyɛdeɛ a ɛsom bo bɛdi 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 ɔnya firi ananafoɔ nyame hɔ no bɛto ahyɛ aban a ɛyɛ den pa ara so, na wɔn a wɔgye no to mu no, ɔbɛhyɛ wɔn animuonyam. Ɔbɛyɛ wɔn sodifoɔ wɔ 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.
“Awieeɛ no duru a, ɔhene a ɔwɔ anafoɔ fam no ne no bɛko, na ɔhene a ɔwɔ atifi fam no nso de nteaseɛnam, apɔnkɔsotefoɔ ne ɛpo so akodɔm bebree ahyia no. Ɔbɛto ahyɛ aman bebree so na watwi afa wɔn so te sɛ nsuyire.
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.
Ɔbɛto ahyɛ Asase Fɛɛfɛ no so. Aman bebree bɛhwehwe ase, nanso wɔbɛgye Edom, Moab ne Amon mu fa kɛseɛ afiri ne nsa mu.
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 remfiri mu mfi.
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 ademudeɛ a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne Misraim ahonyadeɛ nyinaa so, na Libiafoɔ ne Etiopiafoɔ ayɛ nʼasomfoɔ.
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, amaneɛ a ɔbɛte afiri apueeɛ ne atifi fam bɛbɔ no hu, na ɔde abufuhyeɛ bɛfiri 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.
Ɔbɛsi nʼadehye ntomadan wɔ ɛpo no ne bepɔ kronkron fɛfɛ no ntam. Na nʼawieeɛ bɛba a ɔrennya mmoa biara.
