Isaiah 54
1 Shout for joy O barren [woman] [who] not she has given birth break forth a shout of joy and cry aloud O [one who] not she has been in labor for [are] many [the] children of a desolate [woman] more than [the] children of a married [woman] he says Yahweh.
“To dwom, Ao, ɔbonini, di ahurisie, wo a wonnwoo da; ma wo nne so na team, wo a awoɔ nkaa wo da; ɛfiri sɛ ɔbaa a woannya awoɔ da no mma adɔɔso sene deɛ ɔwɔ kunu,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
2 Enlarge - [the] place of tent your and [the] tent curtains of dwellings your may people stretch out may not you refrain make long tent cords your and tent pegs your make strong.
“Trɛ wo ntomadan no mu; twe wo ntomadan ntwamu no mu, nnyae yɛ; toa wo ntampehoma no so, bobɔ wo mpɛɛwa no so ma ɛntim yie.
3 For right and left you will spread out and offspring your nations he will take possession of and cities desolated they will cause to be inhabited.
Ɛfiri sɛ wobɛtrɛ akɔ nifa ne benkum; wʼasefoɔ bɛgye aman afa na wɔatena wɔn nkuropɔn a asɛe no so.
4 May not you be afraid for not you will be put to shame and may not you be ashamed for not you will display shame for [the] shame of youth your you will forget and [the] reproach of widowhood your not you will remember again.
“Nsuro. Wʼanim rengu ase. Nsuro aniwuo. Wɔremmrɛ wo ase. Wo werɛ bɛfiri wo mmabunu mu aniwuo na wo kunayɛ mu ahohora nso, worenkae bio.
5 That husband your [is] maker your [is] Yahweh of hosts name his and [is] redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel [the] God of all the earth he is called.
Na wo Bɔfoɔ yɛ wo kunu Asafo Awurade ne ne din, Israel Ɔkronkronni no yɛ wo Gyefoɔ. Wɔfrɛ no asase nyinaa so Onyankopɔn.
6 For like a wife abandoned and grieved of spirit he will call you Yahweh and a wife of youth if she is rejected he says God your.
Awurade bɛsane afrɛ wo te sɛ ɔyere a woagyaa no na ɔdi yea wɔ nʼakoma mu, ɔyere a ɔwaree mmabaawaberɛ mu na wogyaa no mpofirim,” wo Onyankopɔn na ɔseɛ.
7 For a moment small I abandoned you and in compassion great I will gather you.
“Megyaa wo berɛ tiawa bi mu, nanso mefiri ayamhyehyeɛ a emu dɔ mu bɛsane de wo aba.
8 In a flood of wrath I hid face my a moment from you and in covenant loyalty of perpetuity I will have compassion on you he says redeemer your Yahweh.
Abufuo mmorosoɔ mu, mede mʼani hintaa wo mmerɛ tiawa bi, nanso mʼayamyɛ a ɛnsa da enti, mɛhunu wo mmɔbɔ,” deɛ Awurade, wo Gyefoɔ seɛ nie.
9 For [is] [the] water of Noah this to me which I swore from passing [the] waters of Noah again over the earth so I swear from being angry towards you and from rebuking you.
“Yei te sɛ Noa mmerɛ so a mekaa ntam sɛ meremma nsuyire nkata asase ani bio. Enti afei maka ntam sɛ meremma mebo mfu wo bio, na merenka wʼanim bio.
10 That the mountains they will be removed and the hills they will shake and covenant loyalty my from with you not it will be removed and [the] covenant of peace my not it will shake he says [one who] has compassion on you Yahweh.
Sɛ mmepɔ woso, na nkokoɔ tutu a, me dɔ a ɛnsa da a mewɔ ma wo no renhinhim na mʼasomdwoeɛ apam no rentwam,” sei na Awurade a ɔwɔ ahummɔborɔ ma mo no seɛ.
11 O afflicted [one] it is storm tossed not it has been comforted here! I [am] about to set in antimony stones your and I will refound you with sapphires.
“Ao, kuropɔn a ahum abubu wo na wɔnkyekyee wo werɛ, mede aboɔ anintɔnka bɛsiesie wo, na mede aboɔdemmoɔ ayɛ wo fapem.
12 And I will make ruby battlements your and gates your stones of beryl and all border your stones of delight.
Mede bogyaboɔ bɛto wʼabantifi afasuo, na mede abohemaa a ɛhyerɛn ayɛ wʼapono, na mede aboɔdemmoɔ ayɛ wʼafasuo nyinaa.
13 And all children your [will be] taught of Yahweh and [will be] great [the] peace of children your.
Awurade bɛkyerɛkyerɛ wo mmammarima nyinaa, na wo mma asomdwoeɛ bɛdɔɔso.
14 In righteousness you will be established be distant from oppression for not you will be afraid and from terror for not it will draw near to you.
Wobɛtim wɔ tenenee mu: Wo ne nhyɛsotrasoɔ ntam kwan bɛware; worensuro biribiara. Ahupoo bɛkɔ akyirikyiri, na ɛremmɛn wo.
15 There! certainly anyone will quarrel not from me whoever [is] quarreling with you on you he will fall.
Sɛ obi to hyɛ wo so a, na ɛmfiri me; na deɛ ɔto hyɛ wo so no de ne ho bɛma wo.
16 (Here! *Q(K)*) I I created a craftsman [who] blows on a fire of charcoal and [who] produces a weapon for work its and I I created a destroyer to ruin.
“Hwɛ, ɛyɛ me na mebɔɔ ɔtomfoɔ a ɔfite gyasramma mu ma ɛdɛre na ɔde ahoɔden bɔ akodeɛ a ɛfata ne dwumadie. Na ɛyɛ me na mabɔ ɔsɛefoɔ sɛ ɔmmɛsɛe adeɛ;
17 Any weapon [which] it will be formed on you not it will succeed and every tongue [which] it will arise with you to judgment you will condemn as guilty this [is] [the] inheritance of [the] servants of Yahweh and righteousness their from with me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
akodeɛ biara a wɔabɔ atia wo no rennyina na tɛkrɛma biara a ɛbɛbɔ wo soboɔ no, wobɛbɔ agu. Yei ne Awurade nkoa agyapadeɛ ne wɔn bembuo a ɛfiri me,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
