Amos 7
1 Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! [he was] forming locusts at [the] beginning of [the] coming up of the spring-crop and there! a spring-crop after [the] mowings of the king.
Nea Otumfo Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me ni: na ɔreboaboa mmoadabi bebree ano. Eyi yɛ bere a wɔatwa ɔhene kyɛfa afi mfuw no so na akyiri nnɔbae no renyin no.
2 And it will be if it had finished to eat [the] vegetation of the land and I said O Lord Yahweh forgive please who? will he stand Jacob for [is] small he.
Bere a mmoadabi no awe asase no so nnɔbae nyinaa no, meteɛɛ mu se “Otumfo Awurade, mesrɛ wo, fa wo nkurɔfo bɔne kyɛ wɔn! Yakob bɛyɛ dɛn agyina? Ɔyɛ ɔman ketewa bi.”
3 He relented Yahweh on this not it will be he said Yahweh.
Ɛno nti, Awurade bo dwoe. Na ogyaee nʼatirimpɔw no. Ɔkae se, “Merenyɛ.”
4 Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! [was] calling for conducting a case by fire [the] Lord Yahweh and it consumed [the] deep great and it consumed the portion of land.
Nea Otumfo Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me ni: Otumfo Awurade de ogya rebebu atɛn; ɛyow bun kɛse no, na ɛsɛee asase no.
5 And I said O Lord Yahweh cease please who? will he stand Jacob for [is] small he.
Na meteɛɛ mu se, “Otumfo Awurade, mesrɛ wo, gyae! Yakob rentumi nnyina! Ɔyɛ ɔman ketewa bi.”
6 He relented Yahweh on this also it not it will be he said [the] Lord Yahweh.
Ɛno nti, Awurade bo dwoe na ɔkae se, “Megyae mʼatirimpɔw yi nso.”
7 Thus he showed me and there! [the] Lord [was] standing on a wall of tin and [was] in hand his tin.
Eyi ne nea oyi kyerɛɛ me: Na Awurade gyina ɔfasu a wɔato no kirebenn no ho, a okita kirebennyɛ susudua no.
8 And he said Yahweh to me what? [are] you seeing O Amos and I said tin and he said [the] Lord here I [am] about to put tin in [the] midst of people my Israel not I will repeat again to pass by it.
Na Awurade bisaa me se, “Amos, dɛn na wuhu?” Mibuae se, “Kirebennyɛ susudua.” Na Awurade kae se, “Mede kirebennyɛ susudua yi reto me nkurɔfo Israelfo ho; meremfa wɔn ho nkyɛ wɔn bio.
9 And they will be made desolate [the] high places of Isaac and [the] sanctuaries of Israel they will be waste and I will arise on [the] house of Jeroboam with the sword.
“Wɔbɛsɛe Isak sorɔnsorɔmmea na Israel kronkron tenabea nso wobebubu no; mede mʼafoa bɛsɔre atia Yeroboamfi.”
10 And he sent Amaziah [the] priest of Beth-el to Jeroboam [the] king of Israel saying he has conspired on you Amos in [the] midst of [the] house of Israel not it is able the land to endure all words his.
Amasia a ɔyɛ Bet-El sɔfo de nkra kɔmaa Israelhene Yeroboam se, “Amos rebɔ pɔw atia wo wɔ Israel ha yi ara! Nsɛm a ɔreka no nyɛ abodwosɛm.
11 For thus he has said Amos by the sword he will die Jeroboam and Israel certainly it will go into exile from on land its.
Nea Amos reka ni: “‘Yeroboam bewu wɔ afoa ano, na ɔkwan biara so Israel bɛkɔ nnommum mu, wɔ akyirikyiri asase so.’”
12 And he said Amaziah to Amos O seer go flee yourself to [the] land of Judah and eat there bread and there you will prophesy.
Na Amasia ka kyerɛɛ Amos se, “Fi ha kɔ, wo ɔdehufo! San kɔ Yuda asase so na kɔtena hɔ hyɛ wo nkɔm.
13 And Beth-el not you must repeat again to prophesy for [is] a sanctuary of a king it and [is] a house of kingdom it.
Nhyɛ nkɔm bio wɔ Bet-El ha, efisɛ ha yɛ ɔhene tenabea kronkron ne ahemman no asɔredan.”
14 And he answered Amos and he said to Amaziah not [am] a prophet I and not [am] a son of a prophet I for [was] a herdsman I and a fig picker of sycamores.
Amos buaa Amasia se, “Mennyɛ odiyifo anaa odiyifo bi ba, na na meyɛ oguanhwɛfo a na mehwɛ borɔdɔma nnua nso so.
15 And he took me Yahweh from after the flock and he said to me Yahweh go prophesy to people my Israel.
Nanso Awurade frɛɛ me fii nguan sohwɛ so, ka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Kɔhyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ me nkurɔfo Israelfo.’
16 And therefore hear [the] word of Yahweh you [are] saying not you must prophesy on Israel and not you must prophesy on [the] house of Isaac.
Na afei, tie Awurade asɛm. Woka se, “‘Nhyɛ nkɔm ntia Israelfo, na gyae asɛnka a wode tia Isakfifo no.’
17 Therefore thus he says Yahweh wife your in the city she will be a prostitute and sons your and daughters your by the sword they will fall and land your with measuring-line it will be divided and you on ground unclean you will die and Israel certainly it will go into exile from on land its.
“Enti asɛm a Awurade ka ni: “‘Wo yere bɛbɔ aguaman wɔ kuropɔn yi mu, wo mmabarima ne wo mmabea bewuwu wɔ afoa ano. Wobesusuw wʼasase na wakyekyɛ mu, na wʼankasa nso, wubewu wɔ abosonsomman mu, na ɔkwan biara so Israel bɛkɔ nnommum mu, wɔ akyirikyiri asase so.’”
