< Revelation 12 >
1 And there appeared a great wonder in heauen: A woman clothed with the sunne, and the moone was vnder her feete, and vpon her head a crowne of twelue starres.
Afei nsɛnkyerɛnne kɛse bi daa ne ho adi wɔ ɔsoro. Ɔbea bi, na nʼatade yɛ owia a ɔsram wɔ ne nan ase, na nsoromma dumien ahenkyɛw hyɛ no.
2 And she was with childe, and cried traueiling in birth, and was pained readie to be deliuered.
Na ɔyem a ɔrebɛwo, na awoyaw nti na ɔresu.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaue: for beholde, a great red dragon hauing seuen heads, and ten hornes, and seuen crownes vpon his heads:
Nsɛnkyerɛnne kɛse foforo bi daa ne ho adi wɔ ɔsoro: Ɔwɔ kɔkɔɔ kakraka bi a ne ti yɛ ason na ɔwɔ mmɛn du a ahenkyɛw hyehyɛ biara so.
4 And his taile drew the thirde part of the starres of heauen, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman, which was ready to be deliuered, to deuoure her childe, when shee had brought it foorth.
Ɔde ne dua twee nsoromma a ɛwɔ ɔsoro no mu nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako tow wɔn guu fam. Ogyinaa ɔbea a ɔrewo no anim, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔwo ɔba no to hɔ ara pɛ, ɔbɛfa abofra no awe.
5 So shee brought foorth a man childe, which should rule all nations with a rod of yron: and that her childe was taken vp vnto God and to his throne.
Afei ɔbea no woo abarimaa a ɔde nsa a ɛyɛ den bedi aman nyinaa so. Nanso wohwim abofra no kɔɔ Onyankopɔn ne nʼahengua ho.
6 And the woman fled into wildernes where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feede her there a thousande, two hundreth and three score dayes.
Ɔbea no guan kɔɔ sare so baabi a Onyankopɔn asiesie ama no a wɔbɛhwɛ no yiye wɔ nnafua mpem ahannu aduosia mu.
7 And there was a battell in heauen, Michael and his Angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels.
Afei ɔko sii ɔsoro hɔ. Mikael ne nʼabɔfo ko tiaa ɔwɔ no, na ɔno nso ne nʼabɔfo ko tiae.
8 But they preuailed not, neither was their place found any more in heauen.
Nanso wodii ɔwɔ no so nkonim na wɔamma ɔne nʼabɔfo antena ɔsoro bio.
9 And the great dragon, that olde serpent, called the deuil and Satan, was cast out, which deceiueth all the world: he was euen cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Wɔtow ɔwɔ kakraka no kyenee. Ɔno ne ɔwɔ dedaw no a wɔfrɛ no ɔbonsam a ɔdaadaa wiase nyinaa no. Wɔtow ɔno ne nʼabɔfo nyinaa guu asase so.
10 Then I heard a loude voyce in heauen, saying, Now is saluation, and strength, and the kingdome of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast downe, which accused them before our God day and night.
Afei metee nne dennen bi wɔ ɔsoro a ɛka se, “Afei na Onyankopɔn nkwagye aba! Afei na Onyankopɔn akyerɛ ne tumi sɛ ɔyɛ Ɔhene! Afei na nʼAgyenkwa no akyerɛ ne tumi, efisɛ yɛn nuanom no ahohorabɔni a ogyinaa Onyankopɔn anim bɔɔ wɔn ahohora awia ne anadwo no, wɔapam no afi ɔsoro.
11 But they ouercame him by that blood of that Lambe, and by that worde of their testimonie, and they loued not their liues vnto the death.
Yɛn nuanom no nam Oguamma no mogya so ne nokware a ɔdaa no adi no so dii ne so nkonim. Na wɔasiesie wɔn ho sɛ wɔde wɔn nkwa bɛto hɔ na wɔawuwu.
12 Therefore reioyce, ye heauens, and ye that dwell in them. Wo to the inhabitants of the earth, and of the sea: for the deuill is come downe vnto you, which hath great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
Enti mo ɔsoro ne mo a motete hɔ no, momma mo ani nnye. Afei asase ne po nnue! Efisɛ ɔbonsam no atoa mo na ne bo afuw efisɛ onim sɛ, ne bere a aka sua.”
13 And when the dragon sawe that hee was cast vnto the earth, he persecuted the woman which had brought forth the man childe.
Bere a ɔwɔ no huu sɛ wɔatow no akyene asase so no, ɔtaa ɔbea a wawo abarimaa no.
14 But to the woman were giuen two wings of a great eagle, that she might flie into the wildernes, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and halfe a time, from the presence of the serpent.
Wɔmaa ɔbea no ɔkɔre ntaban akɛse abien, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obetumi atu akɔ faako a wɔasiesie ama no wɔ sare so hɔ a wɔbɛhwɛ no mfe abiɛsa ne fa sɛnea ɔwɔ no renni nʼakyi bio.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water after the woman, like a flood, that he might cause her to be caried away of the flood.
Afei ɔwɔ no puw nsu te sɛ asubɔnten dii ɔbea no akyi sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, ɛbɛfa no.
16 But the earth holpe the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swalowed vp the flood, which the dragon had cast out of his mouth.
Nanso asase boaa ɔbea no. Ebuee nʼanom nom nsu a ɔwɔ no puw guu hɔ no nyinaa.
17 Then the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went and made warre with the remnant of her seede, which keepe the comaundements of God, and haue the testimonie of Iesus Christ.
Ɔwɔ no bo fuw ɔbea no, enti ɔkɔ de ntɔkwaw kɔkaa ɔbea no asefo a wɔaka a ɛyɛ wɔn a wodi Onyankopɔn mmara so na wogye nokware a Yesu ada no adi no di no.
