< 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.
Montwi mmɛn, mo amanaman, na montie; monyɛ aso, mo ɔmanfoɔ! Momma asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ so nyinaa ntie, ewiase ne deɛ ɛfiri 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 afu amanaman no; nʼabufuhyeɛ no tia wɔn akodɔm 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.
Wɔbɛto wɔn mu atɔfoɔ no agu, wɔn afunu no bɛyi hwa; wɔn mogya bɛfɔ mmepɔ 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 wɔbɛbobɔ ɔsoro te sɛ nwoma mmobɔeɛ; ɔsoro atumfoɔ bɛhwe ase sɛdeɛ nhahan te firi bobe so, sɛdeɛ mman a awo firi 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.
Mʼakofena anom deɛ ɛmee no wɔ soro; hwɛ, ɛresiane de atemmuo 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 adware Awurade akofena ho, wɔde sradeɛ asra ho, nnwammaa ne mpɔnkye mogya, nnwennini sawa mu sradeɛ. Awurade wɔ afɔrebɔ bi bɔ wɔ Bosra ne okum kɛseɛ 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.
Anantwie aniɔdenfoɔ ne wɔn bɛtotɔ, anantwinini nketewa ne akɛseɛ. Mogya bɛfɔ wɔn asase no, na sradeɛ ayɛ ɛso dɔteɛ no sɔkyee.
8 For it is the day of the Lordes vengeance, and the yeere of recompence for the iudgement of Zion.
Na ɛyɛ Awurade aweretɔ da a ɔbɛdi 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 nsuwa nsuwa bɛdane agodibea, ne dɔteɛ bɛdane sɔfe a ɛdɛre nʼasase bɛyɛ agoprama a ɛdɛre!
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 wisie bɛfiri a ɛtoɔ rentwa da. Ɛbɛda mpan firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ akɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ; 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.
Anweatam so patuo ne ɔbonsamnoma bɛgye hɔ afa; ɔpatuo ne anene bɛtena hɔ. Onyankopɔn bɛtwe basabasayɛ ahoma wɔ Edom so, ɔde bɛsɛe ɔman no.
12 The nobles thereof shall call to the kingdome, and there shalbe none, and all the princes thereof shalbe as nothing.
Nʼatitire renya biribiara a ɛbɛma wɔafrɛ no ahennie, nʼahenemma mmarima nyinaa bɛtu 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.
Nkasɛɛ bɛgye nʼabankɛsewa afa, nsansono ne nkasɛɛ bɛfu wɔ nʼabankɛsewa hɔ. Ɛhɔ bɛyɛ adompo atuo, ne apatuo 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.
Anweatam so mmoa ne mpataku bɛhyia adi afra, mpɔnkye aniɔdenfoɔ bɛsu akyerɛ wɔn ho; ɛhɔ na anadwo mmoa 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 ɔpatuo bɛyɛ ne pirebuo, na wato ne nkosua. Ɔbɛhwane ne mma, na ɔde ne ntaban akata wɔn so; ɛhɔ na nkorɔma bɛboaboa wɔn ho ano, obiara ne deɛ 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 nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu, na kenkan: Yeinom mu biara renyera, obiara bɛnya deɛ ɔka ne ho. Ɛfiri sɛ nʼanom na ɔhyɛ asɛm no firie, 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 rema wɔn; ɔde ne nsa yɛ susudua kyekyɛ. Wɔbɛfa no sɛ wɔn dea afebɔɔ na wɔfiri awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ akɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ atena hɔ.
