Ezekiel 38
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
2 “Son of man, set your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, chief prince of [[or prince of Rosh, ]] Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy concerning him,
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani si Gog, a ɛwɔ Magog asase so no so, Mesek ne Tubal ɔberempɔn no; hyɛ nkɔm tia no
3 and you have said, Thus says Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, O Gog, Chief prince of [[or prince of Rosh, ]] Meshech and Tubal,
na ka sɛ: ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Me ne wo anya, Gog, Mesek ne Tubal ɔberempɔn.
4 And I have turned you back, And I have put hooks in your jaws, And have brought you out, and all your force, Horses and horsemen, All of them clothed in perfection, A numerous assembly, [with] buckler and shield, All of them handling swords.
Mɛkyinkyim wo na mede nnarewa asosɔ wʼapantan mu, na mede wo ne wʼakodɔm nyinaa, wʼapɔnkɔ, wʼapɔnkɔtesofoɔ a wɔhyehyɛ akotaadeɛ ne ɛdɔm kɛseɛ a wɔkurakura akokyɛm akɛseɛ ne nketewa a wɔn nyinaa rehinhim wɔn akofena, apue.
5 Persia, Cush, and Phut, with them, All of them [with] shield and helmet.
Persia, Kus ne Put a wɔn nyinaa kurakura akokyɛm na wɔhyehyɛ wɔn dadeɛ kyɛ bɛka wɔn ho,
6 Gomer and all its bands, The house of Togarmah [from] the sides of the north, And all its bands, many peoples with you,
afei Gomer ne nʼasraafoɔ nyinaa ne Bet-Togarma a wɔfiri atifi fam akyirikyiri ne nʼasraafoɔ ne aman bebree bɛka wo ho.
7 Be prepared, indeed, prepare yourself, You and all your assemblies who are assembled to you, And you have been for a watch for them.
“‘Siesie wo ho, yɛ krado, wo ne nipakuo a wɔaboaboa wɔn ho ano wɔ wo nkyɛn nyinaa na yɛ wɔn so hwɛfoɔ.
8 After many days you are appointed, In the latter end of the years you come into a land brought back from sword—Gathered out of many peoples, On mountains of Israel, That have been for a continuous ruin, And it has been brought out from the peoples, And all of them have dwelt safely.
Nna bebree akyi no, wobɛtwe atuo. Mfeɛ bi akyi no wobɛko afa asase bi a wafiri ɔko mu afirie na wɔaboaboa ɛso nnipa afiri amanaman so aba Israel mmepɔ a ada mpan akyɛre no so. Wɔde wɔn fifiri amanaman no mu, na seesei wɔn nyinaa te asomdwoeɛ mu.
9 And you have gone up—you come in as desolation, You are as a cloud to cover the land, You and all your bands, and many peoples with you.
Wo ne wʼasraafoɔ nyinaa ne aman bebrebe a wɔwɔ wo nkyɛn no bɛforo akɔ mo anim sɛ ahum. Mobɛyɛ sɛ omununkum akata asase no so.
10 Thus said Lord YHWH: And it has come to pass in that day, Things come up on your heart, And you have thought an evil thought,
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Saa ɛda no, nsusuiɛ bi bɛba wo tirim na wobɛdwene nhyehyɛeɛ bɔne bi.
11 And you have said: I go up over a land of open places, I go to those at rest, dwelling confidently, All of them are dwelling without walls, And they have no bar and doors—
Wobɛka sɛ, “Mɛko afa asase a wɔntoo ɛso nkuraa ho fasuo. Mɛto ahyɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ asomdwoeɛ na wɔnnwene hwee ho, a wɔn mu biara nni ɔfasuo, apono ne akyi adaban.
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey, To turn back your hand on inhabited ruins, And on a people gathered out of nations, Making livestock and substance, Dwelling on a high part of the land.
Mɛfom na mawia na madane me nsa atia amanfo a nnipa abɛtena soɔ ne nnipa a wɔaboa wɔn ano afiri amanaman so, nnipa a ayɛmmoa ne adwadideɛ abu wɔn soɔ na wɔtete asase no mfimfini.”
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and merchants of Tarshish, And all its young lions say to you, Are you coming to take spoil? Have you assembled your assembly to take prey? To carry away silver and gold? To take away livestock and substance? To take a great spoil?
Seba ne Dedan ne Tarsis adwadifoɔ ne ne nkuraase nyinaa bɛbisa wo sɛ, “Woaba sɛ worebɛfom anaa? Woaboa wo dɔm ano sɛ morebɛwia na moasoa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ, ayɛmmoa ne adwadideɛ akɔ na moafa afodeɛ bebree abranso anaa?”’
14 Therefore, prophesy, son of man, and you have said to Gog, Thus said Lord YHWH: In that day, in the dwelling of My people Israel safely, Do you not know?
“Ɛno enti, onipa ba hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ Gog sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Saa ɛda no, ɛberɛ a me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ te hɔ asomdwoeɛ mu no, worennwene ho anaa?
15 And you have come in out of your place, From the sides of the north, You and many peoples with you, Riding on horses—all of them, A great assembly, and a numerous force.
Wobɛfiri wʼasase so wɔ atifi fam nohoa tɔnn, wo ne aman bebree a wɔn nyinaa tete apɔnkɔ soɔ, nipadɔm kɛseɛ, asraadɔm a ɛso.
16 And you have come up against My people Israel, As a cloud to cover the land, It is in the latter end of the days, And I have brought you in against My land, In order that the nations may know Me, In My being sanctified in you before their eyes, O Gog.
Mobɛtu atene akɔtia me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ te sɛ omununkum a ɛkata asase no so. Nna a ɛbɛba no mu, Gog, mɛma woasɔre atia mʼasase, sɛdeɛ aman no bɛhunu me, ɛberɛ a menam wo so bɛda me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni wɔ wɔn anim.
17 Thus said Lord YHWH: Are you he of whom I spoke in former days, By the hand of My servants, prophets of Israel, Who were prophesying [for] years in those days, To bring you in against them?
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛnyɛ wo ne deɛ menam mʼasomfoɔ Israel adiyifoɔ so kaa wo ho asɛm nna a atwam no anaa? Saa ɛberɛ no, wɔde mfeɛ bebree hyɛɛ nkɔm sɛ mɛma wo so de atia wɔn.
18 And it has come to pass in that day, In the day of the coming in of Gog against the land of Israel, A declaration of Lord YHWH, My fury comes up in My face,
Yei ne deɛ ɛbɛsi saa ɛda no. Sɛ Gog to hyɛ Israel asase so a, mʼabufuhyeɛ bɛsɔre, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
19 And in My zeal, in the fire of My wrath, I have spoken: Is there not a great rushing on the land of Israel in that day?
Mʼanem ne mʼabufuhyeɛ mu, mepae mu ka sɛ, saa ɛberɛ no asasewosoɔ kɛseɛ bɛba Israel asase so.
20 And rushed from My presence have fishes of the sea, And the bird of the heavens, And the beast of the field, And every creeping thing that is creeping on the ground, And all men who [are] on the face of the ground, And the mountains have been thrown down, And the ascents have fallen, And every wall falls to the earth.
Ɛpo mu mpataa, ewiem nnomaa, wiram mmoa, abɔdeɛ biara a ɛwea asase soɔ ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa ho bɛpopo wɔ mʼanim. Mmepɔ bɛtutu agu, abotan bɛdwiri na afasuo nyinaa abubu agu fam.
21 And I have called for a sword against him throughout all My mountains, A declaration of Lord YHWH, The sword of each is against his brother.
Mɛfrɛ akofena abɛtia Gog wɔ me mmepɔ nyinaa so, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie. Wɔde akofena bɛsɔre atia wɔn ho wɔn ho.
22 And I have judged him with pestilence and with blood, And an overflowing rain and hailstones, I rain fire and brimstone on him, and on his bands, And on many peoples who [are] with him.
Mede ɔyaredɔm ne mogyahwiegu bɛbu no atɛn, mɛhwie osubrane, ampariboɔ, ogya ne sɔfe a ɛdɛre agu ɔno ne nʼasraafoɔ ne aman bebree a wɔka ne ho no so.
23 And I have magnified Myself, and sanctified Myself, And I have been known before the eyes of many nations, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
Enti mɛda me kɛseyɛ ne me kronkronyɛ adi, na mama amanaman ahunu me. Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’
