Isaiah 63
1 Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honorable in His clothing, Traveling in the abundance of His power? “I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.”
Hwan ni yei a ɔfiri Edom reba, deɛ ɔfiri Bosra a nkekaeɛ kɔkɔɔ wɔ nʼatadeɛ mu yi? Hwan ne yei a wɔahyehyɛ no gɔsɔɔ yi, a ɔde nʼahoɔden kɛseɛ retutu taataa yi? “Ɛyɛ me a mekasa wɔ tenenee mu deɛ ɔtumi gye nkwa.”
2 Why [is] Your clothing red? And Your garments as treading in a winepress?
Adɛn enti na mo ntadeɛ bere kɔɔ, te sɛ obi a ɔretiatia nsakyiamena so deɛ yi?
3 “I have trodden a wine vat by Myself, And of the peoples there is no one with Me, And I tread them in My anger, And I trample them in My fury, Their strength is sprinkled on My garments, And I have defiled all My clothing.
“Me nko ara atiatia nsakyiamena so, na amanaman no mu obiara anka me ho. Metiatiaa wɔn so wɔ mʼabufuo mu na memiaa wɔn so wɔ mʼabufuhyeɛ mu; wɔn mogya bɔ petee me ntadeɛ mu, maa nkekaeɛ yɛɛ mʼaduradeɛ nyinaa mu.
4 For the day of vengeance [is] in My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.
Na aweretɔ da wɔ mʼakoma mu na me gyeɛ afe no aba.
5 And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And My own arm gives salvation to Me. And My wrath—it has supported Me.
Mehwɛeɛ, nanso na ɔboafoɔ biara nni hɔ, ɛyɛɛ me ahodwirie sɛ obiara ammoa me; enti mʼankasa abasa yɛɛ nkwagyeɛ dwuma maa me, na mʼabufuo wowaa me.
6 And I tread down peoples in My anger, And I make them drunk in My fury, And I bring down their strength to earth.”
Metiatiaa amanaman no so wɔ mʼabufuo mu; memaa wɔboboroe wɔ mʼabufuhyeɛ mu na mehwiee wɔn mogya guu fam.”
7 I make mention of the kind acts of YHWH, The praises of YHWH, According to all that YHWH has done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He has done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
Mɛka Awurade ayamyɛ ho asɛm, ne nneyɛɛ a enti ɔsɛ ayɛyie, wɔ deɛ Awurade ayɛ ama yɛn nyinaa ho aane, wɔ nneɛma pa bebree a wayɛ ama Israel fiefoɔ, wɔ nʼayamhyehyeɛ ne ne mmɔborɔhunu a ɛdɔɔso no enti.
8 And He says, “Surely they [are] My people, Sons—they do not lie,” and He is to them for a Savior.
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Ampa ara wɔyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, mmammarima a wɔrenni me hwammɔ”; ɛno enti ɔbɛyɛɛ wɔn Agyenkwa.
9 In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the Messenger of His Presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He lifts them up, And carries them all the days of old.
Wɔn amanehunu nyinaa mu, ɔno nso hunuu amane, na ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔka no ho no nso gyee wɔn. Ne dɔ ne ne mmɔborɔhunu mu, ɔgyee wɔn; ɔpagyaa wɔn na ɔsoaa wɔn mfeɛ a atwam no nyinaa mu.
10 And they have been rebellious and have grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turns to them for an enemy, He Himself has fought against them.
Nanso, wɔtee atua de hoo ne Honhom Kronkron werɛ. Enti ɔbɛyɛɛ wɔn ɔtamfoɔ na ɔno ankasa ko tiaa wɔn.
11 And He remembers the days of old, Moses—his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of His flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
Afei ne nkurɔfoɔ kaee tete nna no, Mose ne ne nkurɔfoɔ nna no. Wɔbisaa sɛ, ɛhe na deɛ ɔde wɔn faa ɛpo mu no wɔ? Deɛ ɔmaa Mose yɛɛ ne nnwan no hwɛfoɔ no. Ɛhe na deɛ ɔmaa ne Honhom Kronkron no tenaa wɔn mu no wɔ?
12 Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a continuous Name.
Deɛ ɔsomaa nʼanimuonyam basa a ɛwɔ tumi sɛ ɔmmɛgyina Mose nsa nifa so, deɛ ɔpaee nsuo no mu wɔ wɔn anim, de gyee edin maa ne ho afebɔɔ,
13 Leading them through the depths, They do not stumble as a horse in a plain.
deɛ ɔdii wɔn anim faa ebunu mu sɛdeɛ ɔpɔnkɔ fa asase tamaa so a wɔasunti.
14 As a beast goes down into a valley, The Spirit of YHWH causes him to rest, So You have led Your people, To make to Yourself a glorious Name.
Sɛdeɛ anantwie nante kɔ ɛserɛ so kɔhome no, saa ara na Awurade Honhom ma wɔhomeeɛ. Sɛdeɛ wokyerɛɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ kwan de gyee animuonyam abɔdin maa wo ho nie.
15 Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Your holy and beautiful habitation, Where [is] Your zeal and Your might? The multitude of Your bowels and Your mercies—Are they restrained?
Brɛ wʼani ase hwɛ fam firi wʼahennwa a ɛkorɔn na ɛyɛ kronkron na ɛho wɔ nyam no so. Mo mmɔdemmɔ ne mo ahoɔden wɔ he? Woayi wʼayamhyehyeɛ ne wʼahummɔborɔ afiri yɛn so.
16 For You [are] our Father, For Abraham has not known us, And Israel does not acknowledge us, You, O YHWH, [are] our Father, Our Redeemer from the Age, [is] Your Name.
Nanso wo ara wo ne yɛn Agya ɛwom sɛ Abraham nnim yɛn na Israel nso nnye yɛn nto mu deɛ; nanso wo, Ao Awurade, wo ne yɛn Agya, ɛfiri tete wo din ne Yɛn Gyefoɔ.
17 Why cause us to wander, O YHWH, from Your ways? You harden our heart from Your fear, Turn back for Your servants’ sake, The tribes of Your inheritance.
Adɛn, Ao Awurade, na woma yɛn kwati wʼakwan na wopirim yɛn akoma enti ɛmma yɛn nni wo ni? Sane bra ɛsiane wʼasomfoɔ, mmusuakuo a wɔyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ no enti.
18 For a little while Your holy people possessed, Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
Ɛberɛ tiawa bi mu wo nkurɔfoɔ faa wo kronkronbea nanso seesei yɛn atamfoɔ atiatia so.
19 We have been from of old, You have not ruled over them, Your Name is not called on them!
Enti yɛyɛ wo dea firi tete nanso wɔn deɛ wonnii wɔn so ɔhene na wɔmmɔɔ wo din mfrɛɛ wɔn da.
