Jeremiah 25
1 The word which it came to Jeremiah on all [the] people of Judah in the year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah it [was] the year first of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.
Asɛm a ɛfa Yudafoɔ nyinaa ho baa Yeremia nkyɛn wɔ Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim, adedie afe a ɛtɔ so ɛnan a ɛyɛ Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar adedie afe a ɛdi ɛkan.
2 Which he spoke Jeremiah the prophet to all [the] people of Judah and to all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem saying.
Enti odiyifoɔ Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ Yudafoɔ ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem nyinaa sɛ,
3 Since thir-teen year of Josiah [the] son of Amon [the] king of Judah and until - the day this this three and twenty year[s] it has come [the] word of Yahweh to me and I have spoken to you rising early and speaking and not you have listened.
Mfeɛ aduonu mmiɛnsa nie, ɛfiri Yudahene Amon babarima Yosia adedie afe a ɛtɔ so dumiɛnsa bɛsi ɛnnɛ, Awurade asɛm aba me so na makasa akyerɛ mo mpɛn bebree, nanso monntieɛ.
4 And he sent Yahweh to you all servants his the prophets rising early and sending and not you listened and not you inclined ear your to listen.
Mpo Awurade asoma nʼasomfoɔ a wɔyɛ nʼadiyifoɔ aba mo nkyɛn mpɛn bebree, na montiee wɔn, na monyɛɛ aso mmaa wɔn.
5 Saying turn back please everyone from way his evil and from [the] wickedness of deeds your and dwell on the land which he gave Yahweh to you and to ancestors your from antiquity and until perpetuity.
Wɔkaa sɛ, “Mo mu biara mfiri nʼakwan bɔne ne ne nneyɛɛ bɔne ho, na mobɛtumi atena asase a Awurade de maa mo ne mo agyanom no so afebɔɔ.
6 And may not you walk after gods other to serve them and to bow down to them and not you must provoke to anger me by [the] work of hands your and not I will do harm to you.
Monni anyame foforɔ akyi nkɔsom wɔn nsɔre wɔn; mommfa deɛ mode mo nsa ayɛ no nhyɛ me abufuo. Afei merenha mo.”
7 And not you have listened to me [the] utterance of Yahweh so as (to provoke to anger me *Q(K)*) by [the] work of hands your for harm of you.
“Nanso moanntie me,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “na mode deɛ mode mo nsa ayɛ ahyɛ me abufuo, na mode ɔhaw aba mo so.”
8 Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts because that not you have listened to words my.
Afei deɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie: “Esiane sɛ moantie me nsɛm no enti,
9 Here I [am] about to send and I will fetch all [the] clans of [the] north [the] utterance of Yahweh and to Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon servant my and I will bring them on the land this and on inhabitants its and on all the nations these round about and I will totally destroy them and I will make them into a waste and into a hissing and into ruins of perpetuity.
mɛfrɛ atifi fam nnipa nyinaa ne mʼakoa Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar,” Awurade na ɔseɛ, “na mede wɔn abɛko atia saa asase yi ne sotefoɔ, ne amanaman a wɔatwa ho ahyia nyinaa. Mɛsɛe wɔn pasaa na mayɛ wɔn ahodwiredeɛ ne fɛdideɛ, ne amamfo afebɔɔ.
10 And I will destroy from them [the] sound of joy and [the] sound of gladness [the] sound of a bridegroom and [the] sound of a bride [the] sound of a hand-mill and [the] light of a lamp.
Mɛyi ahosane ne anigyeɛ nnyegyeɛ, ayeforɔkunu ne ayeforɔyere nne, oyuyammoɔ nnyegyeeɛ ne kanea hann afiri wɔn mu.
11 And it will become all the land this a desolation a waste and they will serve the nations these [the] king of Babylon seventy year[s].
Ɔman mu no nyinaa bɛdane asase wesee, na saa amanaman yi bɛsom Babiloniahene mfirinhyia aduɔson.
12 And it will be when are completed seventy year[s] I will visit [judgment] on [the] king of Babylon and on the nation that [the] utterance of Yahweh iniquity their and on [the] land of [the] Chaldeans and I will make it into desolations of perpetuity.
“Na mfirinhyia aduɔson awieeɛ no, mɛtwe Babiloniahene ne ne ɔman, Babiloniafoɔ asase aso wɔ wɔn amumuyɛ ho, mɛdane no amanfo afebɔɔ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
13 (And I will bring *Q(k)*) on the land that all words my which I spoke on it every [thing] written in the book this which he prophesied Jeremiah on all the nations.
“Mɛma asotwe a mahyɛ atia asase no nyinaa aba wɔn so, deɛ wɔatwerɛ wɔ nwoma yi mu na Yeremia ahyɛ ho nkɔm atia aman no nyinaa no.
14 For they will work by them also they nations many and kings great and I will repay to them according to deed[s] their and according to [the] work of hands their.
Wɔn ankasa deɛ, amanaman bebree ne ahempɔn de wɔn bɛyɛ nkoa; na mɛtua wɔn nneyɛeɛ ne wɔn nsa ano adwuma so ka.”
15 For thus he said Yahweh [the] God of Israel to me take [the] cup of wine the rage this from hand my and you will make drink it all the nations which I [am] sending you to them.
Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ka kyerɛɛ me: “Gye saa kuruwa yi a mʼabufuhyeɛ nsã ahyɛ no ma yi, na ma amanaman a mɛsoma wo wɔn nkyɛn no nyinaa nnom.
16 And they will drink and they will stagger to and fro and they will act like mad people because of the sword which I [am] about to send between them.
Sɛ wɔnom a, wɔbɛtɔ ntintan na wɔabobɔ dam ɛsiane akofena a mɛsoma akɔ wɔn so no enti.”
17 And I took the cup from [the] hand of Yahweh and I made drink all the nations which he sent me Yahweh to them.
Ɛno enti, megyee kuruwa no firii Awurade nsam, na memaa amanaman a ɔsomaa me wɔn nkyɛn no nomeeɛ:
18 Jerusalem and [the] cities of Judah and kings its officials its to make them into a ruin into a waste into a hissing and into a curse as the day this.
Yerusalem ne Yuda nkuro, nʼahemfo ne ne nnwumayɛfoɔ sɛ wɔnyɛ asɛedeɛ, ahodwiredeɛ, fɛdideɛ ne nnome, sɛdeɛ wɔteɛ ɛnnɛ da yi,
19 Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and servants his and officials his and all people his.
Misraimhene Farao, nʼasomfoɔ, nʼadwumayɛfoɔ ne ne manfoɔ nyinaa,
20 And every foreigner and all [the] kings of [the] land of Uz and all [the] kings of [the] land of [the] Philistines and Ashkelon and Gaza and Ekron and [the] remnant of Ashdod.
amanfrafoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ nyinaa; Us ahemfo; Filistifoɔ ahemfo (a ɛyɛ Askelon, Gasa, Ekron ne nnipa a wɔagya wɔn wɔ Asdod);
21 Edom and Moab and [the] people of Ammon.
Edom, Moab ne Amon;
22 And all [the] kings of Tyre and all [the] kings of Sidon and [the] kings of the coastland which [is] on [the] other side of the sea.
Tiro ne Sidon ahemfo nyinaa; ne ahemfo a wɔwɔ mpoano aman a wɔwɔ ɛpo agya no;
23 And Dedan and Tema and Buz and all [those who] are cut off of [the] corner.
Dedan, Tema, Bus ne nnipa a wɔtete akyirikyiri no;
24 And all [the] kings of Arabia and all [the] kings of the Arab[s] who dwell in the wilderness.
Arabia ahemfo ne amanfrafoɔ ahemfo nyinaa a wɔtete anweatam so no.
25 And - all [the] kings of Zimri and all [the] kings of Elam and all [the] kings of Media.
Simri, Elam ne Media ahemfo nyinaa;
26 And - all [the] kings of the north near and far each to brother his and all the kingdoms of the earth which [are] on [the] surface of the ground and [the] king of Sheshach he will drink after them.
ne ahemfo a wɔwɔ atifi fam nyinaa, wɔn a wɔbɛn ne wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri, ne wɔn mu biara, asase so ahennie ahodoɔ. Na wɔn nyinaa akyi no Sesakhene nso bɛnom bi.
27 And you will say to them. Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel drink and become drunk and vomit and fall down and not you will rise because of the sword which I [am] about to send between you.
“Afei, ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: Monnom, mommobo na momfefe, na mohwehwe ase a monnsɔre bio, ɛsiane akofena a mɛsoma aba mo so enti.’
28 And it will be that they will refuse to take the cup from hand your to drink and you will say to them thus he says Yahweh of hosts certainly you will drink.
Na sɛ wɔampɛ sɛ wɔgye wo nsam kuruwa no nom a, ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ: Ɛsɛ sɛ monom!
29 For here! on the city which it is called name my on it I [am] beginning to do harm and you certainly will you be exempt from punishment? not you will be exempt from punishment for a sword I [am] calling on all [the] inhabitants of the earth [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.
Monhwɛ, merebɛfiti aseɛ de amanehunu aba kuropɔn a me Din da so no so, na mobɛfa mo ho adi a wɔrentwe mo aso anaa? Wɔbɛtwe mo aso, ɛfiri sɛ merefrɛ akofena aba wɔn a wɔtete asase no so nyinaa so, Asafo Awurade na ɔseɛ.’
30 And you you will prophesy to them all the words these and you will say to them Yahweh from a high place he will roar and from [the] dwelling of holiness his he will give forth voice his certainly he will roar on habitation his a shout like [those who] tread he will sing to all [the] inhabitants of the earth.
“Afei, hyɛ nsɛm yi nyinaa ho nkɔm tia wɔn, na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, “‘Awurade bɛfiri soro abobom; ɔbɛma ne nne so afiri ne tenabea kronkron hɔ, na wabobɔ mu denden atia nʼasase. Ɔbɛteam te sɛ wɔn a wɔtiatia bobe aba so, ɔbɛteam agu wɔn a wɔtete asase no so.
31 It has come an uproar to [the] end of the earth for a controversy [belongs] to Yahweh on the nations [is] about to enter into judgment he to all flesh the wicked [people] he has delivered up them to the sword [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Hooyɛ bɛgyegye akɔ nsase ano, na Awurade bɛbɔ kwaadu atia amanaman; ɔbɛbu adasamma nyinaa atɛn na ɔde amumuyɛfoɔ ama akofena,’” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
32 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts there! calamity [is] about to go forth from nation to nation and a storm great it will be roused from [the] remotest parts of [the] earth.
Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ: “Monhwɛ! Amanehunu retrɛtrɛ firi ɔman so kɔ ɔman foforɔ so; ahum kɛseɛ bi rema ne ho so afiri nsase ano.”
33 And they will be [those] slain of Yahweh on the day that from [the] end of the earth and to [the] end of the earth not they will be mourned and not they will be gathered and not they will be buried dung on [the] surface of the ground they will become.
Saa ɛberɛ no, wɔn a Awurade akunkum wɔn no bɛdeda baabiara, firi asase ano kɔsi ano nohoa. Wɔrensu wɔn na wɔremmoaboa wɔn ano na wɔrensie wɔn, na wɔbɛyɛ sɛ sumina a ɛgugu fam.
34 Wail O shepherds and cry out and roll in ashes O noble [ones] of the flock for they have been completed days your to slaughter and dispersions your and you will fall like a vessel of desire.
Monsu na montwa adwo, mo nnwanhwɛfoɔ; mommunimuni wɔ mfuturo mu mo nnwankuo ntuanofoɔ. Mokum berɛ no aduru mobɛhwehwe ase, na moabobɔ nketenkete te sɛ nkukuo a ɛnyɛ den.
35 And it will be lost a place of escape from the shepherds and escape from [the] noble [ones] of the flock.
Nnwanhwɛfoɔ no rennya baabiara nnwane nkɔ na nnwankuo no ntuanofoɔ no rennya ɛkwan nnwane.
36 [the] sound of [the] cry of distress of The shepherds and [the] wailing of [the] noble [ones] of the flock for [is] destroying Yahweh pasture their.
Montie nnwanhwɛfoɔ no su, ne nnwankuo no ntuanofoɔ agyaadwotwa, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade resɛe wɔn mmoa adidibea.
37 And they will be devastated [the] pastures of peace because of [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh.
Ɛserɛ nsase a asomdwoeɛ wɔ soɔ no bɛda mpan ɛsiane Awurade abufuhyeɛ no enti.
38 He has left like young lion lair his for it has become land their a waste because of [the] anger of the oppressor and because of [the] burning of anger his.
Na wɔn asase bɛda mpan te sɛ gyata a ɔfiri ne tu mu ɛsiane ɔhyɛsofoɔ no akofena ne Awurade abufuhyeɛ no enti.
