< Isaiah 55 >

1 Alas! O every thirsty [one] come to the waters and [one] who not [belongs] to him money come buy grain and eat and come buy grain with not money and with not price wine and milk.
“Mommra, mo a osukɔm de mo nyinaa, mommra nsuo no ho; na mo a monni sika, mommra mmɛtɔ na monni! Mommra mmɛtɔ nsã ne nufosuo a monntua hwee.
2 Why? do you weigh out money for not bread and toil your for not to satiety listen steadfastly to me and eat good thing[s] so it may take delight in fatness appetite your.
Adɛn enti na mosɛe sika wɔ deɛ ɛnyɛ aduane ho ne mo ahoɔden wɔ deɛ ɛmmee ho? Montie, montie me na monni deɛ ɛyɛ, na mo kra ani bɛgye nnepa a ɛwɔ akatua pa ho.
3 Incline ear your and come to me listen so may it live self your and I will make to you a covenant of perpetuity [the] covenant loyalti of David reliable.
Monyɛ aso, na mommra me nkyɛn; montie me, na mo kra anya nkwa. Me ne mo bɛyɛ apam a ɛte hɔ daa, me dɔ a ɛtoɔ ntwa da a mede hyɛɛ Dawid bɔ no.
4 Here! a witness of peoples I made him a leader and a commander of peoples.
Hwɛ, mede no ayɛ adansedie ama nnipa no, wɔn ɔkandifoɔ ne ɔsahene.
5 There! a nation [which] not you know you will call and a nation [which] not they have known you to you they will run on account of Yahweh God your and to [the] holy [one] of Israel for he has glorified you.
Ampa ara mobɛfrɛ aman a monnim wɔn, na aman a wonnim mo no bɛyɛ ntɛm aba mo nkyɛn, Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn enti, Israel Ɔkronkronni no, ɛfiri sɛ wahyɛ mo animuonyam.”
6 Seek Yahweh when he lets be found himself call on him when is he near.
Monhwehwɛ Awurade ɛberɛ a mobɛhunu no. Momfrɛ no ɛberɛ a ɔbɛn.
7 Let him forsake a wicked [person] way his and a person of wickedness thoughts his and let him return to Yahweh so he may have compassion on him and to God our for he will increase to forgive.
Ma omumuyɛfoɔ ntwe ne ho mfiri nʼakwan ho na ɔbɔnefoɔ nso mfiri ne nsusuiɛ ho. Ma ɔnnane nkɔ Awurade nkyɛn, na ɔbɛhunu no mmɔbɔ, ɔnnane nkɔ yɛn Onyankopɔn nkyɛn, na ɔde ne ho bɛkyɛ no.
8 For not thoughts my [are] thoughts your and not [are] ways your ways my [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Na mʼadwene nnyɛ mo adwene, na mo akwan nso nnyɛ mʼakwan,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
9 For they are high [the] heavens more than [the] earth so they are high ways my more than ways your and thoughts my more than thoughts your.
“Sɛdeɛ ɔsoro korɔn sene asase no, saa ara na mʼakwan korɔn sene mo akwan, na mʼadwene nso korɔn sene mo adwene.
10 For just as it comes down the rain and the snow from the heavens and there towards not it returns that except it has given water to the earth and it has caused to bring forth it and it has made sprout it and it has given seed to the sower and bread to the eater.
Osuo ne sukyerɛmma tɔ firi soro gu fam, na ɛnsane nkɔ hɔ bio gye sɛ afɔ asase ama afifideɛ ɛgu nhwiren, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛso aba ama ogufoɔ na aduane nso aba ama deɛ ɔdie.
11 Thus it is word my which it goes forth from mouth my not it will return to me in vain that except it has done [that] which I desired and it has prospered [that] which I sent it.
Saa ara na mʼasɛm a ɛfiri mʼanum teɛ: Ɛrensane mma me nkyɛn kwa. Mmom ɛbɛyɛ deɛ mepɛ na awie botaeɛ a ɛno enti mesomaa no.
12 For in joy you will go out and in peace you will be led! the mountains and the hills they will break forth before you a shout of joy and all [the] trees of the field they will clap a palm.
Mode ahosɛpɛ bɛpue na wɔagya mo kwan asomdwoeɛ mu; mmepɔ ne nkokoɔ bɛto nnwom wɔ mo anim, na mfuo so nnua nyinaa bɛbɔ wɔn nsam.
13 In place of the thornbush it will grow up a cypress (and in place of *Q(K)*) the nettle it will grow up a myrtle tree and it will become for Yahweh a name a sign of perpetuity [which] not it will be cut down.
Nkyɛkyerɛ ananmu, pepeaa bɛfifiri, na nnɛnkyɛnse ananmu, ohwam dua bɛfifiri. Yei bɛyɛ deɛ ɛhyɛ Awurade animuonyam, ɛbɛyɛ daapem nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ, a ɛrentwam da.”
