Ezekiel 28
1 The word of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
2 Sonne of man, say vnto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saieth the Lord God, Because thine heart is exalted, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God in ye mids of the sea, yet thou art but a man and not God, and though thou didest thinke in thine heart, that thou wast equall with God,
“Onipa ba, ka kyerɛ Tiro sodifo no se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Wufi wʼahantan koma mu ka se, “Meyɛ onyame; mete onyame bi ahengua so wɔ po mfimfini.” Nanso woyɛ onipa, wonyɛ onyame, ɛwɔ mu, wudwen sɛ wunim nyansa sɛ onyame bi.
3 Behold, thou art wiser then Daniel: there is no secrete, that they can hide from thee.
Wunim nyansa sen Daniel ana? Wunim kokoamsɛm biara ana?
4 With thy wisedome and thine vnderstanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten golde and siluer into thy treasures.
Wonam wo nyansa ne nhumu so anya ahode ama wo ho, woapɛ sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ bebree agu wʼadekoradan mu.
5 By thy great wisedome and by thine occupying hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted vp because of thy riches.
Wonam wʼaguadi mu nyansa so ama wʼahonya adɔɔso, na wʼahonya nti woahoran wɔ wo koma mu.
6 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because thou didest thinke in thine heart, that thou wast equall with God,
“‘Ɛno nti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Esiane sɛ wudwen sɛ wunim nyansa te sɛ Onyame nti,
7 Behold, therefore I wil bring strangers vpon thee, euen the terrible nations: and they shall drawe their swordes against the beautie of thy wisedome, and they shall defile thy brightnes.
mede ananafo reba abetia wo, amanaman no mu ɔdesɛefo pa ara; wɔbɛtwetwe wɔn afoa wɔ wʼahoɔfɛ ne wo nyansa so na wɔahwirew wʼanuonyam no.
8 They shall cast thee downe to the pit, and thou shalt die the death of them, that are slaine in the middes of the sea.
Wɔde wo bɛto amoa no mu, na wubewu owu yaayaw wɔ ɛpo mfimfini.
9 Wilt thou say then before him, that slayeth thee, I am a god? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hands of him that slayeth thee.
Afei wobɛka se, “Meyɛ onyame,” wɔ wɔn a wokum wo no anim ana? Wobɛyɛ onipa na ɛnyɛ onyame, wɔ wɔn a wokum wo no nsam.
10 Thou shalt die the death of the vncircumcised by the hands of stragers: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.
Wubewu momonotofo wu wɔ ananafo nsam. Me na maka, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
11 Moreouer the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
12 Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation vpon the King of Tyrus, and say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God, Thou sealest vp the summe, and art full of wisedome and perfite in beautie.
“Onipa ba, ma kwadwom a ɛfa Tirohene ho so na ka kyerɛ no se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Na anka woyɛ pɛyɛ nhwɛso, na wowɔ nyansa na woyɛ ahoɔfɛdua.
13 Thou hast ben in Eden the garden of God: euery precious stone was in thy garment, the rubie, the topaze and the diamonde, the chrysolite, the onix, and the iasper, the saphir, emeraude, and the carbuncle and golde: the woorkemanship of thy timbrels, and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Na anka wowɔ Eden Onyankopɔn turo no mu. Wɔde abohemaa nyinaa siesie wo: bogyanambo, akraatebo ne bɔwerɛbo sikabereɛbo, apopobibiribo ne ahwehwɛbo, hoabo, nsrammabo ne ahabammono bo; wɔde sika kɔkɔɔ na ayɛ wʼahyehyɛde, wosiesiee ne nyinaa da a wɔbɔɔ wo.
14 Thou art the anointed Cherub, that couereth, and I haue set thee in honour: thou wast vpon the holy mountaine of God: thou hast walked in the middes of the stones of fire.
Wɔsraa wo ngo sɛ ɔhwɛfo kerub, efisɛ saa na mehyɛɛ wo. Na wowɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔw kronkron no so; wonantew ogya abo mu.
15 Thou wast perfite in thy wayes from the day that thou wast created, till iniquitie was found in thee.
Na anka wʼakwan ho nni asɛm efi da a wɔbɔɔ wo no kosii sɛ wohuu amumɔyɛ wɔ wo mu.
16 By the multitude of thy marchandise, they haue filled the middes of thee with crueltie, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as prophane out of the mountaine of God: and I will destroy thee, O couering Cherub from the mids of the stones of fire.
Wʼaguadi a mu trɛw no nti wɔde akakabensɛm hyɛɛ wo ma na woyɛɛ bɔne. Ɛno nti mepam wo fii Onyankopɔn bepɔw no so wɔ animguase mu, na miyii wo adi, ɔhwɛfo kerub, fii ogya abo no mu.
17 Thine heart was lifted vp because of thy beautie, and thou hast corrupted thy wisedome by reason of thy brightnes: I wil cast thee to ye grounde: I will lay thee before Kinges that they may beholde thee.
Wohyerɛn wɔ wo koma mu wʼahoɔfɛ nti na womaa wo nyansa porɔwee, wʼanuonyam no nti. Enti metow wo kyenee fam; na mede wo yɛɛ ahwɛde wɔ ahemfo anim.
18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctification by the multitude of thine iniquities, and by the iniquitie of thy marchandise: therefore wil I bring forth a fire from the mids of thee, which shall deuoure thee: and I wil bring thee to ashes vpon the earth, in the sight of all them that beholde thee.
Wode wo nnebɔne ne aguadi mu asisi agu wo kronkrommea ho fi ɛno nti memaa ogya fii wo mu na ɛhyew wo, na memaa wo dan nsõ wɔ fam wɔ wɔn a na wɔrehwɛ no nyinaa anim.
19 All they that knowe thee among the people, shalbe astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terrour, and neuer shalt thou be any more.
Aman a na wonim wo nyinaa ho adwiriw wɔn wɔ wo ho: wʼawiei ayɛ ahometew na wɔrenhu wo bio.’”
20 Againe, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
21 Sonne of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesie against it,
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Sidon na hyɛ nkɔm tia no
22 And say, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, O Zidon, and I will be glorified in the mids of thee: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall haue executed iudgements in her, and shalbe sanctified in her.
na ka se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Me ne wo anya, Sidon na mɛda mʼanuonyam adi wɔ mo mu. Wubehu sɛ mene Awurade no, bere a mede asotwe aba ne so na mada me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni wɔ ne mu no.
23 For I wil send into her pestilence, and blood into her streetes, and the slaine shall fall in the middes of her: the enemie shall come against her with the sword on euery side, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Mɛma ɔyaredɔm aba ne so na mama mogya ateɛ wɔ ne mmɔnten so. Apirafo bɛtotɔ wɔ ne mu, bere a afoa redi ahim wɔ ne ho nyinaa. Afei na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
24 And they shalbe no more a pricking thorne vnto the house of Israel, nor any grieuous thorne of all that are round about them, and despised them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord God.
“‘Na Israelfo rennya yɔnkonom a wɔwɔ adwemmɔne, wɔn a wɔwowɔ yayaayaw sɛ ohwirem ne nsɔe bio. Afei na wobehu sɛ mene Otumfo Awurade no.
25 Thus saith the Lord God, When I shall haue gathered the house of Israel from the people where they are scattered, and shalbe sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwel in the land, that I haue giuen to my seruant Iaakob.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ meboa Israelfo ano fi aman a wabɔ wɔn apete no so a, mɛda me kronkronyɛ adi wɔ wɔn mu, ama amanaman no ahu. Afei wɔbɛtena wɔn ankasa asase a mede maa me somfo Yakob no so.
26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall builde houses, and plant vineyards: yea, they shall dwell safely, when I haue executed iudgements vpon al round about them that despise them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord their God.
Wɔbɛtena hɔ asomdwoe mu na wobesisi adan, ayeyɛ bobe nturo; Wɔbɛtena ase asomdwoe mu wɔ bere a matwe ne yɔnkonom a wɔkasa tiaa no no nyinaa aso. Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn no.’”
