Jezekiel 25

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:

2 Son of man, set your face steadfastly against the children of Ammon, and prophesy against them;

“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Amonfo so na hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn.

3 and you shall say to the children of Ammon, Hear you the word of the Lord; thus says the Lord; Forasmuch as you have rejoiced against my sanctuary, because it was profaned; and against the land of Israel, because it was laid waste; and against the house of Juda, because they went into captivity;

Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Muntie Otumfo Awurade asɛm. Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ wokaa “Ɛhɛɛ” guu me kronkronbea so bere a woguu ho fi ne Israel asase bere a ɛdaa mpan, ne Yudafo bere a wɔkɔɔ nnommum mu

4 therefore, behold, I [will] deliver you to the children of Kedem for an inheritance, and they shall lodge in you with their stuff, and they shall pitch their tents in you: they shall eat your fruits, and they shall drink your milk.

nti, mede mo rebɛma nnipa a wofi Apuei fam na wɔde mo ayɛ wɔn de. Wɔbɛkyekye wɔn nsraban, asisi wɔn ntamadan wɔ mo mu; wobedi mo nnuaba na wɔanom mo nufusu.

5 And I will give up the city of Ammon for camels' pastures, and the children of Ammon for a pasture of sheep: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

Mɛdan Raba ayɛ no yoma adidibea na Amon ayɛ faako a nguan gye wɔn ahome. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.

6 For thus says the Lord; Because you have clapped your hands, and stamped with your foot, and heartily rejoiced against the land of Israel;

Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ moabɔ mo nsam de mo anan apempem hɔ, na mode koma mu bɔne nyinaa adi ahurusi atia Israel asase nti,

7 therefore I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a spoil to the nations; and I will utterly destroy you from among the peoples, and I will completely cut you off from out of the countries: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

mɛteɛ me nsa atia mo na moayɛ asade ama amanaman no. Metwa mo afi amanaman no mu na matɔre mo ase wɔ nsase no so. Mɛsɛe mo na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”

8 Thus says the Lord; Because Moab has said, Behold, are not the house of Israel and Juda like all the [other] nations?

“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Moab ne Seir kae se, “Monhwɛ, Yudafi ayɛ sɛ amanaman a aka no”

9 Therefore, behold, I will weaken the shoulder of Moab from his frontier cities, [even] the choice land, the house of Bethasimuth above the fountain of the city, by the sea-side.

nti, mebue Moab nkyɛn mu, afi nkurow a ɛdeda nʼahye so, Bet-Yesimot, Baal-Meon ne Kiriataim, a ɛyɛ asase no anuonyam.

10 I have given him the children of Kedem in addition to the children of Ammon for an inheritance, that there may be no remembrance of the children of Ammon.

Na mede Moab bɛka Amonfo ho ama nnipa a wɔwɔ Apuei fam de ayɛ wɔn de, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔrenkae Amonfo wɔ amanaman no mu;

11 And I will execute vengeance on Moab; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

na mɛtwe Moab aso. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”

12 Thus says the Lord; Because of what the Idumeans have done in taking vengeance on the house of Juda, and [because they] have remembered injuries, and have exacted full recompense;

“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ Edom tɔɔ were wɔ Yudafi so na ɔnam so dii fɔ no nti,

13 therefore thus says the Lord; I will also stretch out my hand upon Idumea, and will utterly destroy out of it man and beast; and will make it desolate; and they that are pursued out of Thaeman shall fall by the sword.

nea Otumfo Awurade se ni: ‘Mɛteɛ me nsa atia Edom na makum ne mmarima ne ne mmoa, mɛma asase a ɛda Teman kosi Dedan ada mpan, na wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano.

14 And I will execute my vengeance on Idumea by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall deal in Idumea according to mine anger and according to my wrath, and they shall know my vengeance, says the Lord.

Me nkurɔfo Israelfo bɛyɛ nsa a mɛfa so atɔ Edom so were na wɔne no bedi no sɛnea mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew te; wobehu mʼaweretɔ, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”

15 Therefore thus says the Lord, Because the Philistines have wrought revengefully, and raised up vengeance rejoicing from their heart to destroy [the Israelites] to a man;

“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Filistifo tɔɔ were, na wɔde koma mu nsusuw bɔne na ɛyɛɛ saa, na wɔde ɔtan a efi tete sɛee Yuda nti,

16 therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] stretch out my hand upon the Philistines, and will utterly destroy the Cretans, and will cut off the remnant that dwell by the sea-coast.

sɛnea Otumfo Awurade se ni: Merebɛteɛ me nsa atia Filistifo, na matwa Keretifo no agu na masɛe wɔn a wɔaka wɔ mpoano hɔ no.

17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have brought my vengeance upon them.

Mɛtɔ wɔn so were a ɛso na matwe wɔn aso wɔ mʼabufuwhyew mu. Na sɛ metɔ wɔn so were a, wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
