< Isaiah 39 >
1 At the time that he sent Merodach-Baladan [the] son of Baladan [the] king of Babylon letters and a gift to Hezekiah and he had heard that he had been sick and he was strong.
Saa ɛberɛ no Merodak-Baladan a ɔyɛ Babiloniahene Baladan babarima soma ma wɔde krataa ne akyɛdeɛ kɔmaa Hesekia, ɛfiri sɛ na wate sɛ wayare ama ne ho atɔ no.
2 And he was pleased on them Hezekiah and he showed them [the] house of (treasure his *Q(K)*) the silver and the gold and the spices and - the oil good and all [the] house of weapons his and all that it was found in storehouses his not it was anything which not he showed them Hezekiah in house his and in all realm his.
Hesekia gyee asomafoɔ no fɛw so, na afei ɔde deɛ ɔwɔ wɔ nʼakoradan mu kyerɛɛ wɔn: dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, nnuhwam, ngohwam, nʼakodeɛ akoraeɛ ne biribiara a ɛka nʼademudeɛ ho. Biribiara nni nʼahemfie ne nʼahennie mu a Hesekia amfa ankyerɛ wɔn.
3 And he came Isaiah the prophet to the king Hezekiah and he said to him what? did they say - the men these and from where? are they coming to you and he said Hezekiah from a land distant they have come to me from Babylon.
Afei Odiyifoɔ Yesaia kɔɔ ɔhene Hesekia nkyɛn, kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Asɛm bɛn na saa mmarima no kaaeɛ na ɛhe na wɔfiri baeɛ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔfiri akyirikyiri asase bi so. Wɔfiri Babilonia, na wɔbaa me nkyɛn.”
4 And he said what? did they see in house your and he said Hezekiah all that [is] in house my they saw not it was anything which not I showed them in storehouses my.
Odiyifoɔ no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wɔhunuu wɔ wʼahemfie hɔ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔhunuu biribiara a ɛwɔ mʼahemfie ha. Biribiara nni mʼademudeɛ mu a mamfa ankyerɛ wɔn.”
5 And he said Isaiah to Hezekiah hear [the] word of Yahweh of hosts.
Afei, Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia sɛ, “Tie asɛm a ɛfiri Asafo Awurade nkyɛn:
6 Here! days [are] coming and it will be carried off - all that [is] in house your and that they stored up ancestors your until the day this Babylon not it will remain anything he says Yahweh.
Nokorɛm, ɛberɛ bi bɛba a, wɔbɛsoa biribiara a ɛwɔ wʼahemfie ne agyapadeɛ a wʼagyanom akora de abɛduru ɛnnɛ no akɔ Babilonia. Biribiara renka, sei na Awurade seɛ.
7 And some of own descendants your who they will come forth from you whom you will father people will take and they will be eunuchs in [the] palace of [the] king of Babylon.
Na afei wʼasefoɔ mu bi, wʼankasa wo mogya a wɔbɛwo wɔn ama wo no, wɔbɛsoa wɔn akɔ na wɔakɔyɛ apiafoɔ wɔ Babiloniahene ahemfie.”
8 And he said Hezekiah to Isaiah [is] good [the] word of Yahweh which you have spoken and he said that it will be peace and stability in days my.
Hesekia dwenee sɛ ne ɔman no bɛnya asomdwoeɛ ne banbɔ wɔ ne mmerɛ so, enti ɔbuaa sɛ, “Awurade asɛm a woabɛka yi yɛ asɛm papa.”
