< Isaiah 11 >
1 But there shall come a rodde foorth of the stocke of Ishai, and a grasse shall growe out of his rootes.
Dua foforɔ bi bɛfefɛ wɔ Yisai dunsini ho; ɛfiri ne nhini mu na Dubaa bi bɛso aba.
2 And the Spirite of the Lord shall rest vpon him: the Spirite of wisedome and vnderstanding, the Spirite of counsell and strength, the Spirite of knowledge, and of the feare of the Lord,
Awurade Honhom bɛtena no so: nyansa ne nteaseɛ Honhom, afotuo ne tumi Honhom, nimdeɛ ne Awurade suro Honhom.
3 And shall make him prudent in the feare of the Lord: for he shall not iudge after the sight of his eies, neither reproue by ye hearing of his eares.
Na nʼani bɛgye wɔ Awurade suro mu. Ɛnnyɛ deɛ ɔde nʼani hunu soɔ na ɔbɛgyina abu atɛn, anaa deɛ ɔde nʼaso bɛteɛ soɔ na ɔbɛgyina asi gyinaeɛ;
4 But with righteousnesse shall he iudge the poore, and with equitie shall he reprooue for the meeke of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lippes shall he slay the wicked.
na mmom ɔde tenenee bɛbu mmɔborɔfoɔ atɛn, ɔde atɛntenenee bɛsi gyinaeɛ ama asase so ahiafoɔ. Ɔde abaa a ɛyɛ nʼanom asɛm bɛwoso asase; ɔde ahome a ɛfiri nʼanom bɛkunkum amumuyɛfoɔ.
5 And iustice shall be ye girdle of his loynes, and faithfulnesse the girdle of his reines.
Tenenee bɛyɛ nʼabɔsoɔ na nokorɛdie ayɛ nʼabɔwomu.
6 The wolfe also shall dwell with the lambe, and the leopard shall lie with the kid, and the calfe, and the lyon, and the fat beast together, and a litle childe shall leade them.
Pataku ne odwammaa bɛtena, ɔsebɔ ne abirekyie bɛda, nantwie ba ne gyata ne ne ba bɛbɔ mu; na abɔfra ketewa bi adi wɔn anim.
7 And the kow and the beare shall feede: their yong ones shall lie together: and the lyon shall eate strawe like the bullocke.
Ɔnantwie ne sisire bɛbɔ mu adidi, wɔn mma bɛdeda faako, na gyata bɛwe wira te sɛ nantwie.
8 And the sucking childe shall play vpon the hole of the aspe, and the wained childe shall put his hand vpon the cockatrice hole.
Akokoaa bɛdi agorɔ abɛn ɔprammire amena ano, na abɔfra ketewa de ne nsa ahyɛ ɔnanka bɔn mu.
9 Then shall none hurt nor destroy in all the mountaine of mine holines: for the earth shalbe full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters that couer the sea.
Wɔrenyɛ obi bɔne na wɔrensɛe adeɛ wɔ me bepɔ Kronkron nyinaa so, na Awurade ho nimdeɛ bɛyɛ asase so ma sɛdeɛ nsuo ayɛ ɛpo ma no.
10 And in that day the roote of Ishai, which shall stand vp for a signe vnto the people, the nations shall seeke vnto it, and his rest shall be glorious.
Na da no, Yisai aseni no bɛsɔre; deɛ ɔbɛsɔre abɛdi amanaman no so; ɔno na wɔn ani bɛda ne so, na nʼahomegyebea bɛnya animuonyam.
11 And in the same day shall the Lord stretche out his hand againe the second time, to possesse the remnant of his people, (which shalbe left) of Asshur, and of Egypt, and of Pathros, and of Ethiopia, and of Elam, and of Shinear, and of Hamath, and of the yles of the sea.
Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛma ne nsa so ne mprɛnu so de agye ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔaka afiri Asiria, Misraim anafoɔ fam, Misraim atifi fam, Kus, Elam, Babilonia, Hamat ne Po so nsupɔ.
12 And he shall set vp a signe to the nations, and assemble the dispersed of Israel, and gather the scattered of Iudah from the foure corners of the worlde.
Ɔbɛma frankaa so ama aman no na wɔaboaboa Israel atukɔfoɔ ano; Ɔbɛboaboa Yudafoɔ a wɔahwete no ano afiri asase ntwea ɛnan no so.
13 The hatred also of Ephraim shall depart, and the aduersaries of Iudah shalbe cut off: Ephraim shall not enuie Iudah, neither shall Iudah vexe Ephraim:
Efraim anibereɛ bɛtu ayera, na wɔbɛsɛe Yuda atamfoɔ. Efraim ani remmere Yuda bio, na Yuda nso rentane Efraim ani.
14 But they shall flee vpon the shoulders of the Philistims toward the West: they shall spoyle them of the East together: Edom and Moab shall be the stretching out of their hands, and the children of Ammon in their obedience.
Wɔbɛtwi afa Filistia nsaneɛ ahodoɔ no so akɔ atɔeɛ fam; na wɔbɛbɔ mu afo nnipa akɔ apueeɛ fam. Wɔbɛfa Edom ne Moab, na Amonfoɔ bɛhyɛ wɔn ase.
15 The Lord also shall vtterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptians sea, and with his mightie winde shall lift vp his hand ouer the riuer, and shall smite him in his seuen streames, and cause men to walke therein with shooes.
Awurade bɛma nsuo a ɛwɔ Misraim Po no mu awe korakora; ɔbɛma ne nsa mu mframa a emu yɛ hyeɛ abɔ afa Asubɔnten Eufrate so. Ɔbɛpaapae mu ayɛ no nsuwansuwa nson sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a obiara bɛtumi ahyɛ mpaboa atwa.
16 And there shalbe a path to the remnant of his people, which are left of Asshur, like as it was vnto Israel in the day that he came vp out of the land of Egypt.
Ɛkwantempɔn bi bɛda hɔ ama ne nkurɔfoɔ nkaeɛfoɔ a wɔaka Asiria, sɛdeɛ ebi daa hɔ maa Israel ɛberɛ a wɔfiri Misraim baeɛ no.
