< Ezekiel 13 >

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
2 O son of humankind prophesy against [the] prophets of Israel who are prophesying and you will say to [the] prophets from own heart their hear [the] word of Yahweh.
“Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm tia Israel adiyifoɔ a wɔhyɛ nkɔm seesei. Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔbɔ wɔn tirim hyɛ nkɔm no sɛ: ‘Montie Awurade asɛm!
3 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh woe! on the prophets the fools who [are] walking after own spirit their and to not they have seen.
Yei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Nnome nka adiyifoɔ nkwaseafoɔ a wɔdi wɔn ankasa honhom akyi na wɔnhunuu hwee no.
4 Like foxes among ruins prophets your O Israel they have been.
Ao Israelfoɔ, mo adiyifoɔ yi te sɛ mmubuiɛ mu kɔkɔbo.
5 Not you have gone up in the breaches and you have walled up a wall on [the] house of Israel to stand in the battle on [the] day Yahweh.
Monkɔeɛ sɛ morekɔsiesie afasuo no afaafa a abubu no ama Israel efie, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛtumi agyina pintinn wɔ ɔko no ano, Awurade ɛda no.’
6 They have seen worthlessness and divination of falsehood those [who] say [the] utterance of Yahweh and Yahweh not he has sent them and they have waited to fulfill a word.
Wɔn adehunu yɛ atorɔ, na wɔn adebisa yɛ nnaadaa. Wɔka sɛ, ‘Awurade aka sɛ,’ wɔ ɛberɛ a Awurade nsomaa wɔn, nanso wɔhwɛ anim sɛ wɔn nkɔmhyɛ bɛba mu.
7 ¿ Not a vision of worthlessness have you seen and divination of falsehood have you said? and [you were] saying [the] utterance of Yahweh and I not I have spoken.
Sɛ wɔka sɛ, ‘Yei na Awurade seɛ’, wɔ ɛberɛ a menkasaeɛ a, na wɔn anisoadehunu nnyɛ atorɔ? Na wɔn adebisa nso, ɛnnyɛ nnaadaa anaa?
8 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because have spoken you worthlessness and you have seen falsehood therefore here I [am] against you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
“Ɛno enti, sɛdeɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ nie: ‘Mo nsɛm a ɛyɛ atorɔ ne mo nnaadaa anisoadehunu enti, me ne mo anya’, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
9 And it will be hand my against the prophets who see worthlessness and who divine falsehood in [the] council of people my not they will be and in [the] register of [the] house of Israel not they will be written down and into [the] land of Israel not they will go and you will know that I [am the] Lord Yahweh.
Me nsa bɛtia adiyifoɔ a wɔn anisoadehunu yɛ atorɔ na wɔn abisa yɛ nnaadaa. Wɔremfra me nkurɔfoɔ badwafoɔ mu, na wɔrentwerɛ wɔn din wɔ Israel efie nwoma no mu, na wɔn nan rensi Israel asase so. Na afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Otumfoɔ Awurade.
10 Because and by cause they have led astray people my saying peace and there not [is] peace and he [is] building a wall and there they [are] plastering it whitewash.
“Esiane sɛ wɔama me nkurɔfoɔ ayera ɛkwan, na wɔka sɛ ‘Asomdwoeɛ’, wɔ ɛberɛ a asomdwoeɛ nni hɔ, na afei, sɛ wɔto ɔfasuo a ɛnni ahoɔden bi a wɔde akaadoo afa so enti,
11 Say to [the] plasterers of whitewash so it may fall it will come - rain overflowing and you O stones of hail you will fall and a wind of tempests it will break through [the wall].
ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔka akaadoo no sɛ, ɔfasuo no rebɛbu. Osubrane bɛtɔ, na mɛsoma asukɔtweaa, na mframa a ano yɛ den bɛbɔ.
12 And there! it has fallen the wall ¿ not will it be said to you where? [is] the plaster which you plastered.
Na sɛ ɔfasuo no bu gu fam a, nnipa remmisa wɔn sɛ, ‘ɛhe na akaadoo a wɔde sraa ho no afa’ anaa?
13 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will make break out a wind of tempests in rage my and rain overflowing in anger my it will come and stones of hail in rage for complete destruction.
“Ɛno enti, deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ nie: ‘Mʼabufuhyeɛ mu, mɛma ahum atu, na mʼabufuo mu no, asukɔtweaa ne osubrane de adesɛeɛ ahoɔden atɔ.
14 And I will tear down the wall which you plastered whitewash and I will make touch it the ground and it will be uncovered foundation[s] its and it will fall and you will come to an end in [the] midst of it and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Mɛdwiri ɔfasuo a mode akaadoo afa ho no na mabubu agu fam ama ne fapem ho ada hɔ. Sɛ ɔfasuo no hwe ase a, wɔbɛsɛe mo wɔ mu, na mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade.
15 And I will complete rage my on the wall and on [those who] plastered it whitewash so I may say to you there not [is] the wall and there [are] not those [who] plastered it.
Enti mede mʼabufuhyeɛ bɛkɔ ɔfasuo no ne wɔn a wɔde akaadoo sraa ho no so. Mɛka akyerɛ mo sɛ, ɔfasuo no nni hɔ bio, na saa ara na wɔn a wɔde akaadoo sraa ho no nni hɔ.
16 [the] prophets of Israel who prophesied concerning Jerusalem and who saw for it a vision of peace and there not [was] peace [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Wɔyɛ Israel adiyifoɔ a wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm maa Yerusalem na wɔhunuu asomdwoeɛ anisoadeɛ, wɔ ɛberɛ a asomdwoeɛ nni hɔ’, Otumfoɔ Awurade na ɔseɛ.
17 And you O son of humankind set face your against [the] daughters of people your who prophesy from own heart their and prophesy on them.
“Afei, onipa ba, ma wʼani nkɔ wo mmaa a wɔbɔ wɔn tirim hyɛ nkɔm so. Hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn
18 And you will say thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh woe! to [women who] sew bands on - all [the] joints of hands my and [women who] make the long veils on [the] head of every stature to hunt persons ¿ persons will you hunt of people my and persons of yourself will you preserve alive?
na ka sɛ, ‘Yei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Nnome nka mmaa a wɔpempam ntafowayie dwomfadeɛ hyehyɛ wɔn abakɔn na wɔpempam nkatanimu ntiawa ne atentene kata wɔn anim de sum nnipa afidie. Mobɛsum me nkurɔfoɔ nkwa afidie, na mo deɛ, moakora mo deɛ?
19 And you have profaned me to people my for handfuls of barley and for fragments of bread by putting to death persons who not they will die and by preserving alive persons who not they will live when speak falsehood you to people my [who] listen to falsehood.
Moasopa me wɔ me nkurɔfoɔ mu de agye atokoɔ nsabuo kakra bi ne burodo asinasini. Monam atorɔ a modi kyerɛ me nkurɔfoɔ a wɔtie atorɔ so akunkum wɔn a anka ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔ wuwu, na moama wɔn a anka ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtena nkwa mu no afa wɔn ho adi.
20 Therefore thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] against bands your which you [are] hunting there the persons for birds and I will tear away them from on arms your and I will set free the persons whom you [are] hunting persons for birds.
“‘No enti, yei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Metia mo ntafowayie dwomfadeɛ a mode sum nkurɔfoɔ afidie sɛ nnomaa no, na mɛtete afiri mo abasa so; mɛgyaa nnipa a mosum wɔn afidie sɛ nnomaa no.
21 And I will tear away long veils your and I will deliver people my from hand your and not they will become again in hand your prey and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Mɛtete mo nkatanimu no mu afiri mo anim, na magye me nkurɔfoɔ nkwa afiri mo nsam, na morennya wɔn so tumi bio. Afei mobɛhunu sɛ me ne Awurade.
22 Because disheartened [the] heart of [the] righteous falsehood and I not I caused pain him and to strengthen [the] hands of [the] wicked to not to turn back from way his evil to preserve alive him.
Esiane sɛ mode atorɔ maa teneneefoɔ aba mu buiɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a menhyɛɛ wɔn awerɛhoɔ, na mohyɛɛ amumuyɛfoɔ nkuran sɛ wɔnkɔ so wɔ wɔn akwan bɔne so na moagye wɔn nkwa no
23 Therefore worthlessness not you will see and divination not you will divine again and I will deliver people my from hand your and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
enti, morenhunu atorɔ anisoadeɛ bio na mobɛgyae ntafowayie nso. Mɛgye me nkurɔfoɔ afiri mo nsa mu, na afei mobɛhunu sɛ me ne Awurade no.’”
