< Ezekiel 7 >

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
2 And you O son of humankind thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh to [the] land of Israel an end it has come the end on ([the] four *Q(K)*) [the] corners of the land.
“Onipa ba, yei ne asɛm a Otumfoɔ Awurade ka kyerɛ Israel asase no: “‘Awieeɛ no, awieeɛ no aduru asase no ntweaso ɛnan no so!
3 Now the end [is] on you and I will send forth anger my on you and I will judge you according to ways your and I will requite to you all abominations your.
Awieeɛ no aduru wɔ wo so, na mɛhwie mʼabufuhyeɛ agu wo so. Mɛgyina wʼabrabɔ so abu wo atɛn, na matua wo ka wɔ wʼakyiwadeɛ nyinaa so.
4 And not it will look with compassion eye my on you and not I will show pity for ways your to you I will requite and abominations your in midst of you they will be and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Merenhunu wo mmɔbɔ na meremfa wo ho nkyɛ wo. Ampa ara mɛtua wo ka wɔ wo nneyɛɛ ne wʼakyiwadeɛ a ɛwɔ wo mu no, na moahunu sɛ me ne Awurade.’
5 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh calamity one calamity there! [it is] coming.
“Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Atoyerɛnkyɛm! Atoyerɛnkyɛm a wontee da nam ɛkwan so reba!
6 An end it has come it has come the end it has awakened against you there! [it is] coming.
Awieeɛ no aba! Awieeɛ no aba! Apagya ne ho atia wo. Aba!
7 It has come doom to you O inhabitant of the land it has come the time [is] near the day confusion and not a shout of joy mountains.
Ɔsɛeɛ aduru mo, mo a mote asase no so. Ɛberɛ no aduru, ɛda no abɛn; huboabɔ ɛberɛ a ɛnyɛ mmepɔ no so ahosɛpɛ.
8 Now from near [future] I will pour out rage my on you and I will complete anger my on you and I will judge you according to ways your and I will requite to you all abominations your.
Merebɛhwie mʼabufuhyeɛ agu wo so de awie mʼabufuo a ɛtia wo no. Mɛgyina wo nneyɛɛ so abu wo atɛn, na matua wo ka wɔ wʼakyiwadeɛ nyinaa so.
9 And not it will look with compassion eye my and not I will show pity according to ways your to you I will requite and abominations your in midst of you they will be and you will know that I Yahweh [am] striking.
Merenhunu wo mmɔbɔ, na meremfa wo ho nkyɛ wo. Mɛtua wo ka wɔ wo nneyɛɛ ne wʼakyiwadeɛ a ɛwɔ wo mu no. Afei mobɛhunu sɛ me, Awurade, na mebobɔ.
10 There! the day there! [it is] coming it has gone forth doom it has blossomed the rod it has budded arrogance.
“‘Ɛda no nie! Hwɛ aba! Atemmuo da no apue, abaa no afefɛ, ahantan ahanehane!
11 Violence - it has arisen to a rod of wickedness not any of them and not any of multitude their and not any of noise their and not distinction [is] among them.
Akakabensɛm ayɛ abaa a wɔde twe amumuyɛ aso. Nnipa no mu biara renka, nnipakuo no mu biara, ahonyadeɛ ne deɛ ɛsom bo biara renka.
12 It has come the time it has arrived the day the buyer may not he rejoice and the seller may not he mourn for anger [is] against all multitude its.
Ɛberɛ no aso! Ɛda no aduru. Mma ɔdetɔfoɔ ani nnnye anaa ɔdetɔnfoɔ werɛ nho, ɛfiri sɛ abufuhyeɛ wɔ nnipakuo no nyinaa so.
13 For the seller to the thing sold not he will return and still [is] in life life their for [the] vision concerning all multitude its not it will turn back and anyone in iniquity his life his not they will strengthen themselves.
Deɛ ɔtɔn no nsa renka asase a watɔn no bio wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔn mmienu te ase, Ɛfiri sɛ anisoadehunu a ɛfa nnipakuo no nyinaa no rensesa. Wɔn bɔne enti, wɔn mu baako koraa remfa ne ho nni.
14 They have given a blast on the trumpet and to prepare everything and there not [is one who] goes to the battle for anger my [is] against all multitude its.
“‘Ɛwom, wɔhyɛne totorobɛnto, na wɔboaboa biribiara ano deɛ, nanso obiara renkɔ ɔsa, ɛfiri sɛ mʼabufuhyeɛ wɔ nnipakuo no nyinaa so.
15 The sword [is] on the outside and pestilence and famine [are] from inside [the one] who [is] in the open country by the sword he will die and [the one] who [is] in the city famine and pestilence it will consume him.
Akofena wɔ mfikyire; na ɔyaredɔm ne ɛkɔm wɔ efie. Wɔn a wɔwɔ ɔman no mu bɛtotɔ wɔ akofena ano. Wɔn a wɔwɔ kuropɔn no mu no, ɔyaredɔm ne ɛkɔm bɛkum wɔn.
16 And they will escape escapees their and they will be to the mountains like [the] doves of the valleys all of them moaning everyone for own iniquity his.
Wɔn a wɔanya wɔn tiri adidi mu na wɔadwane no bɛtena mmepɔ no so. Na wɔakurum te sɛ mmɔnhwa mu mmorɔnoma wɔ wɔn mu biara bɔne enti.
17 All the pairs of hands they will drop and all knees they will go water.
Nsa nyinaa bɛdwodwo na nkotodwe nyinaa ayɛ mmrɛ sɛ nsuo.
18 And they will gird themselves sackcloth and it will cover them shuddering and [will be] to every face shame and [will be] on all heads their baldness.
Wɔbɛfirafira ayitoma na wɔabɔ huboa. Aniwuo bɛkata wɔn anim na wɔayi wɔn tirinwi.
19 Silver their in the streets they will throw and gold their an impure thing it will become silver their and gold their not it will be able to deliver them in [the] day of [the] fury of Yahweh appetite their not they will satisfy and inward parts their not they will fill for [the] stumbling block of iniquity their it has become.
“‘Wɔbɛto wɔn dwetɛ agu mmɔntene so, na wɔn sikakɔkɔɔ bɛyɛ adeɛ a ɛho nteɛ. Wɔn dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ rentumi nnye wɔn Awurade abufuhyeɛ ɛda no. Ɛrenkum wɔn kɔm na ɛrenhyɛ wɔn yafunu ma, ɛfiri sɛ ayɛ wɔn suntidua de wɔn akɔ bɔne mu.
20 And [the] beauty of ornament[s] its into pride he has made it and [the] images of abominations their detestable things their they have made with it there-fore I will make it for them into an impure thing.
Na wɔde wɔn mpompranneɛ fɛfɛ no hoahoa wɔn ho, na wɔde yeyɛɛ wɔn ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ ne nsɛsodeɛ tantane; enti mɛdane yeinom a ɛho nteɛ ama wɔn.
21 And I will give it in [the] hand of the strangers to spoil and to [the] wicked [people] of the earth to plunder (and they will profane it. *Q(K)*)
Mede ne nyinaa bɛma ananafoɔ sɛ afodeɛ na mede ama asase so atirimuɔdenfoɔ sɛ korɔnodeɛ, na wɔbɛgu ho fi.
22 And I will turn around face my from them and they will profane treasured [place] my and they will go in it robbers and they will profane it.
Mɛyi mʼani afiri wɔn so na akorɔmfoɔ bɛgu beaeɛ a ɛsom me bo ho fi. Wɔbɛwura hɔ na wɔagu ho fi.
23 Make the chain for the land it is full judgment of blood and the city it is full violence.
“‘Monyɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn! Ɛfiri sɛ mogyahwiegu ayɛ asase no so ma, na akakabensɛm ahyɛ kuropɔn no ma.
24 And I will bring [the] evil of nations and they will take possession of houses their and I will put an end to [the] pride of mighty [ones] and they will be profaned sanctuaries their.
Mɛma aman no mu otirimuɔdenfoɔ pa ara abɛfa wɔn afie; mɛma ɔhoɔdenfoɔ ahomasoɔ aba awieeɛ, na wɔn kronkrommea ho bɛgu fi.
25 Anguish it has come and they will seek peace and not.
Sɛ ehu ba a, wɔbɛhwehwɛ asomdwoeɛ akyiri ɛkwan, nanso ɛbɛbɔ wɔn.
26 Disaster to disaster it will come and report to report it will be and they will seek a vision from a prophet and instruction it will be lost from [the] priest and counsel from elders.
Atoyerɛnkyɛm bɛdi atoyerɛnkyɛm akyi aba; atesɛm bɛdi atesɛm akyi. Wɔbɛpɛ sɛ wɔbɛnya anisoadehunu afiri odiyifoɔ no hɔ, Ɔsɔfoɔ nkyerɛkyerɛ a ɛfa mmara no ho no bɛbɔ wɔn. Saa ara na wɔrennya afotuo mfiri mpanimfoɔ hɔ.
27 The king he will mourn and [the] prince he will wear desolation and [the] hands of [the] people of the land they will be terrified from way their I will deal with them and by judgments their I will judge them and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Ɔhene no bɛtwa adwo, ɔheneba no bɛfira abasamutuo, na asase no so nnipa nsa bɛpopo. Me ne wɔn bɛdi no sɛdeɛ wɔn nneyɛɛ teɛ, na mɛgyina wɔn pɛpɛyɛ so abu wɔn atɛn. Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ me ne Awurade no.’”
