< Isaiah 34 >
1 Come neere, ye nations and heare, and hearken, ye people: let the earth heare and all that is therein, the world and al that proceedeth thereof.
Muntwiw mmɛn, mo amanaman, na muntie; monyɛ aso, mo ɔmanfo! Momma asase ne nea ɛwɔ so nyinaa ntie, wiase ne nea efi mu ba nyinaa!
2 For the indignation of the Lord is vpon all nations, and his wrath vpon all their armies: hee hath destroyed them and deliuered them to the slaughter.
Awurade bo afuw amanaman nyinaa; nʼabufuwhyew no tia wɔn asraafo nyinaa. Ɔbɛsɛe wɔn pasaa, ɔbɛma wɔakunkum wɔn.
3 And their slaine shalbe cast out, and their stincke shall come vp out of their bodies, and the mountaines shalbe melted with their blood.
Wɔbɛtow wɔn mu atɔfo no agu, wɔn afunu no beyi hua; wɔn mogya afɔw mmepɔw no.
4 And all the hoste of heauen shalbe dissolued, and the heauens shall be folden like a booke: and all their hostes shall fall as the leafe falleth from the vine, and as it falleth from the figtree.
Ɔsoro nsoromma nyinaa bɛyera na wɔbɛbobɔw ɔsoro te sɛ nhoma mmobɔwee; ɔsoro atumfo bɛhwe ase sɛnea nhaban tew fi bobe so, sɛnea mman a awo pan fi borɔdɔma dua ho.
5 For my sword shalbe drunken in the heauen: beholde, it shall come downe vpon Edom, euen vpon the people of my curse to iudgement.
Mʼafoa anom nea ɛmee no no wɔ ɔsoro; hwɛ, ɛresian de atemmu aba Edom so, wɔn a masɛe wɔn koraa no.
6 The sword of the Lord is filled with blood: it is made fat with the fat and with the blood of the lambes and the goates, with the fat of the kidneis of the rams: for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Mogya aguare Awurade afoa ho, wɔde srade asra ho, nguantenmma ne mmirekyi mogya, adwennini asaabo mu srade. Awurade wɔ afɔre bi bɔ wɔ Bosra ne okum kɛse wɔ Edom.
7 And the vnicorne shall come downe with them and the heiffers with the bulles, and their lande shalbe drunken with blood, and their dust made fat with fatnesse.
Anantwi anuɔdenfo ne wɔn bɛtotɔ, anantwinini nketewa ne akɛse. Mogya afɔw wɔn asase no, na srade ayɛ so dɔte no sɔkyee.
8 For it is the day of the Lordes vengeance, and the yeere of recompence for the iudgement of Zion.
Na Awurade wɔ aweretɔ da ananmuhyɛ afe, a obedi ama Sion.
9 And the riuers thereof shall be turned into pitche, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shalbe burning pitch.
Edom nsuwansuwa bɛdan agodibea, ne dɔte bɛdan sufre a ɛdɛw nʼasase bɛyɛ agoprama a ɛdɛw!
10 It shall not be quenched night nor day: the smoke thereof shall goe vp euermore: it shall be desolate from generation to generation: none shall passe through it for euer.
Ɛrennum awia anaa anadwo; ne wusiw befi a ɛto rentwa da. Ɛbɛda mpan fi awo ntoatoaso akosi awo ntoatoaso; obiara remfa ho bio koraa.
11 But the pelicane and the hedgehog shall possesse it, and the great owle, and the rauen shall dwel in it, and he shall stretch out vpon it the line of vanitie, and the stones of emptinesse.
Nweatam so patu ne ɔbonsamnoma begye hɔ afa; patu ne kwaakwaadabi bɛtena hɔ. Onyankopɔn bɛtwe wɔ Edom so basabasayɛ susuhama ne amamfoyɛ kirebennyɛ susudua.
12 The nobles thereof shall call to the kingdome, and there shalbe none, and all the princes thereof shalbe as nothing.
Nʼatitiriw rennya biribiara a ɛbɛma wɔafrɛ no ahenni, nʼahenemma mmarima nyinaa betu ayera.
13 And it shall bring foorth thornes in the palaces thereof, nettles and thistles in the strong holdes thereof, and it shall be an habitation for dragons, and a court for ostriches.
Nsɔe begye nʼabankɛse afa, nsansono ne nsɔe befuw wɔ nʼabankɛse hɔ. Hɔ bɛyɛ adompo atu, ne mpatu tenabea.
14 There shall meete also Ziim and Iim, and the Satyre shall cry to his fellow, and the shricheowle shall rest there, and shall finde for her selfe a quiet dwelling.
Nweatam so mmoa ne mpataku behyia adi afra, mmirekyi anuɔdenfo besu akyerɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho; hɔ na anadwommoa bɛdeda na wɔde ayɛ wɔn homebea.
15 There shall the owle make her nest, and laye, and hatche, and gather them vnder her shadowe: there shall the vultures also bee gathered, euery one with her make.
Ɛhɔ na patu bɛyɛ ne berebuw, na watow ne nkesua. Obesow ne mma, na ɔde ne ntaban akata wɔn so; ɛhɔ na nkorɔma bɛboaboa wɔn ho ano, obiara ne nea ɔka ne ho.
16 Seeke in the booke of the Lord, and reade: none of these shall fayle, none shall want her make: for his mouth hath commanded, and his very Spirit hath gathered them.
Hwɛ Awurade nhoma mmobɔwee no mu, na kenkan: Eyinom mu biara renyera, obiara benya nea ɔka ne ho. Efisɛ nʼanom na ɔhyɛ asɛm no fi, na ne honhom bɛboaboa wɔn ano.
17 And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath deuided it vnto them by line: they shall possesse it for euer: from generation to generation shall they dwell in it.
Ɔde wɔn kyɛfa ma wɔn; ɔde ne nsa yɛ susudua kyekyɛ. Wɔbɛfa no sɛ wɔn de afebɔɔ na wofi awo ntoatoaso akosi awo ntoatoaso atena hɔ.
