Jeremiah 33
1 Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
Bere a Yeremia da so da dua mu wɔ awɛmfo adiwo hɔ no, Awurade asɛm baa ne nkyɛn ne mprenu so se:
2 "Thus says the LORD who made the earth, and who formed it to establish it; the LORD is his name:
“Sɛɛ na Awurade se, nea ɔbɔɔ asase, Awurade a ɔyɛe na ɔma egyinae, Awurade ne ne din:
3 'Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and hidden things, which you do not know.'
‘Frɛ me na megye wo so, na maka wo nsɛm akɛse ne nneɛma a ahintaw a wunnim.’
4 For thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword;
Na nea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, ka de fa afi a ɛwɔ saa kuropɔn yi mu ne Yuda ahemfi ahorow a wɔabubu no ho, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wubenya nea wɔde besiw ntuano afasu ne afoa no ano,
5 while men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city:
wɔ wɔne Babiloniafo ɔko no mu. ‘Nnipa a mede mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew bekunkum wɔn no afunu bɛyɛ hɔ ma. Meyi mʼani afi saa kuropɔn yi so esiane nʼamumɔyɛ nyinaa nti.
6 'Look, I will bring it health and healing, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Nanso mede ahoɔden ne ayaresa bɛbrɛ no; mɛsa me nkurɔfo yare na mama wɔanya asomdwoe ne bammɔ a ɛdɔɔso.
7 I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
Mɛsan de Yuda ne Israel afi nnommum mu aba na masan agye wɔn asi hɔ sɛ nea na wɔte dedaw no.
8 I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, by which they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, by which they have sinned against me, and by which they have transgressed against me.
Mɛhohoro wɔn bɔne a wɔayɛ atia me no nyinaa, na mede wɔn atuatew ho bɔne nso akyɛ wɔn.
9 This city shall be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do to them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure to it.'
Na saa kuropɔn yi bɛma me din ahyeta, ɛbɛma me anigye, ayeyi ne anuonyam wɔ asase so aman a wɔte nnepa a meyɛ ma no nyinaa mu; wobesuro na wɔn ho apopo wɔ yiyedi ne asomdwoe bebrebe a mede ma no nti.’
10 "Thus says the LORD: 'Yet again there shall be heard in this place, about which you say, "It is waste, without man and without animal," even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,
“Sɛɛ na Awurade se: ‘Woka fa saa beae yi ho se, “Ada mpan a nnipa anaasɛ mmoa nni so.” Nanso Yuda nkurow ne Yerusalem mmɔnten a ada mpan na nnipa anaa mmoa nni no, hɔ na wɔbɛsan ate bio,
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, "Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever; who bring thanksgiving into the house of the LORD." For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first,' says the LORD.
ahurusi ne anigye nnyigyei, ayeforo ne ayeforokunu nne ne wɔn a wɔde aseda afɔrebɔ reba Awurade fi nne se, “‘“Momfa aseda mma Asafo Awurade, efisɛ Awurade ye, na ne dɔ wɔ hɔ daa.” Na mɛsan de asase no so nnepa a wɔwɔ hɔ dedaw no aba bio,’ Awurade, na ose.
12 Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Yet again shall there be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
“Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: ‘Ɛha yi a ada mpan a nnipa ne mmoa nni no; ne nkurow nyinaa so no, wobenya nguanhwɛfo adidibea ne nea wɔn nguankuw bɛhome.
13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the Negev, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks again pass under the hands of him who numbers them,' says the LORD.
Nkurow a ɛwɔ ɔman a ɛda bepɔw so no atɔe fam mmepɔw ase mu, Negeb, Benyamin mantam mu, nkuraa a atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia ne Yuda nkurow mu, nguankuw betwa mu bio wɔ nea ɔkan wɔn no nsa ase.’ Awurade, na waka.
14 'Look, the days come,' says the LORD, 'that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
“‘Nna no reba,’ Awurade na ose, a mɛma adom bɔ a mehyɛɛ Israel ne Yudafi no aba mu.
15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
“‘Nna no mu ne saa bere no mɛma trenee Dubaa afefɛw afi Dawid ase; ɔbɛyɛ nea ɛteɛ ne nea eye wɔ asase no so.
16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name by which she shall be called: "The LORD our righteousness."
Saa nna no mu, wobegye Yuda nkwa na Yerusalem bɛtena asomdwoe mu. Eyi ne din a wɔde bɛfrɛ no Awurade, Yɛn Trenee.’
17 For thus says the LORD: "David shall never want a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel;
Na sɛɛ na Awurade se: ‘Ɔbarima a ɔbɛtena Israel ahengua so no remmɔ Dawid da,
18 neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually."'"
saa ara nso na asɔfo a wɔyɛ Lewifo no, ɔbarima a obegyina mʼanim daa abɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne aduan afɔre na ɔde afɔre ahorow abrɛ me, remmɔ wɔn da.’”
19 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn se:
20 "Thus says the LORD: 'If you can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their season;
“Sɛɛ na Awurade se: ‘Sɛ wubetumi abu me ne adekyee ne adesae apam so, na adekyee ne adesae amma wɔn bere a wɔahyehyɛ no a,
21 then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
ɛno de, na me ne mʼakoa Dawid apam ne Lewifo a wɔyɛ asɔfo a wɔsom wɔ mʼanim no apam no nso, wubetumi abu so, na Dawid rennya nʼaseni a ɔbɛtena ahengua so adi hene bio.
22 As the host of heaven can't be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the offspring of David my servant, and the Levites who minister to me.'"
Mɛma mʼakoa Dawid asefo ne Lewifo a wɔsom wɔ mʼanim no ase adɔ te sɛ ɔsoro nsoromma a wontumi nkan ne mpoano nwea a wontumi nsusuw.’”
23 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn se,
24 "Do not consider what this people has spoken, saying, 'The two families which the LORD chose, he has cast them off?' Thus do they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
“Wontee sɛ nnipa yi reka se, ‘Awurade apo ahenni abien a oyii no’ ana? Enti wobu me man animtiaa na wɔmmfa wɔn sɛ wɔyɛ ɔman bio.
25 Thus says the LORD: 'If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
Nea Awurade se ni: ‘Sɛ mantintim me ne adekyee ne adesae apam ne ɔsoro ne asase mmara no a,
26 then will I also cast away the descendants of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his descendants to be rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have mercy on them.'"
ɛno de anka mɛpo Yakob ne mʼakoa Dawid asefo, na merenyi ne mmabarima mu baako sɛ onni Abraham, Isak ne Yakob asefo so. Na mede wɔn ahonyade bɛsan ama wɔn, na manya ayamhyehye ama wɔn.’”
