Amos 3

1 Sones of Israel, here ye the word which the Lord spak on you, and on al the kynrede, which Y ledde out of the lond of Egipt,

Montie saa asɛm a Awurade aka atia mo yi, Ao, Israelfoɔ, deɛ ɛtia abusua a meyii wɔn firii Misraim no nyinaa:

2 and seide, Oneli Y knewe you of alle the kynredis of erthe; therfor Y schal visite on you alle youre wickidnessis.

“Mo nko ara na mayi mo wɔ mmusua a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa mu; enti mɛtwe mo aso wɔ mo bɔne nyinaa ho.”

3 Whether tweyne schulen go togidere, no but it acorde to hem?

Nnipa baanu bɛtumi abom anante, wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔnyɛɛ anokorɔ anaa?

4 Whether a lioun schal rore in a forest, no but he haue prey? Whether the whelp of a lioun schal yyue vois fro his denne, no but he take ony thing?

Gyata bobom wɔ dɔtɔ ase wɔ ɛberɛ a ɔnhunuu ahaboa biara anaa? Ɔpɔ so wɔ ne buo mu wɔ ɛberɛ a ɔnkyeree ahaboa biara anaa?

5 Whether a brid schal falle in to a snare of erthe, with outen a foulere? Whether a snare schal be takun awei fro erthe, bifor that it tak sum thing?

Anomaa bɛtɔ afidie mu wɔ fam wɔ baabi a wɔnnsum afidie anaa? Afidie hwan wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛnyii aboa anaa?

6 Whether a trumpe schal sowne in a citee, and the puple schal not drede? Whether yuel schal be in a citee, which yuel the Lord schal not make?

Sɛ wɔhyɛn totorobɛnto wɔ kuropɔn mu a nnipa no ho mpopo anaa? Sɛ atoyerɛnkyɛm ba kuropɔn bi mu a ɛnyɛ Awurade na ɔyɛeɛ anaa?

7 For the Lord God schal not make a word, no but he schewe his priuyte to hise seruauntis profetis.

Ampa ara, Otumfoɔ Awurade nnyɛ biribi a ɔnna ne nhyehyeɛ adi nkyerɛ nʼAsomafoɔ adiyifoɔ no.

8 A lioun schal rore, who schal not drede? the Lord God spak, who schal not profesie?

Gyata no abobom, hwan na ɔnnsuro? Otumfoɔ Awurade akasa, hwan na ɔrenhyɛ ho nkɔm?

9 Make ye herd in the housis of Azotus, and in the housis of the lond of Egipt; and seie ye, Be ye gaderid togidere on the hillis of Samarye, and se ye many woodnessis in the myddis therof, and hem that suffren fals calenge in the priuy places therof.

Mompae mu nka nkyerɛ Asdod aban ne Misraim aban: “Mommoaboa mo ho ano wɔ Samaria mmepɔ so; hwɛ basabasayɛ a ɛwɔ ne so ne nhyɛsoɔ a ɛwɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.”

10 And thei kouden not do riytful thing, seith the Lord, and tresouriden wickidnesse and raueyn in her housis.

“Wɔnnim sɛdeɛ wɔyɛ deɛ ɛyɛ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie. Wɔde nneɛma a wɔafo ne deɛ wɔawia sie wɔ wɔn aban mu.

11 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, The lond schal be troblid, and be cumpassid; and thi strengthe schal be drawun doun of thee, and thin housis schulen be rauyschid.

Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ, “Ɔtamfoɔ bi bɛtwi afa asase no so; Ɔbɛbubu wʼabanbɔeɛ agu, na wafo wʼaban.”

12 The Lord God seith these thingis, As if a schepherd rauyschith fro the mouth of a lioun tweyne hipis, ether the laste thing of the eere, so the children of Israel schulen be rauyschid, that dwellen in Samarie, in the cuntrei of bed, and in the bed of Damask.

Deɛ Awurade seɛ nie: “Sɛdeɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ gye nnyawa mmienu nnompe anaa aso sin firi gyata anom no, saa ara na wɔbɛgye Israelfoɔ nkwa, wɔn a wɔtete wɔn mpa twea so wɔ Samaria, ne wɔn a wɔdeda nkonwa pa mu wɔ Damasko.”

13 Here ye, and witnesse ye in the hous of Jacob, seith the Lord God of oostis.

“Tie yei, na di adanseɛ tia Yakob efie,” sɛdeɛ Awurade, Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn seɛ nie.

14 For in the dai, whanne Y schal bigynne to visite the trespassyngis of Israel on hym, Y schal visite also on the auteris of Bethel; and the hornes of the auter schulen be kit awei, and schulen falle doun in to erthe.

“Ɛda a mɛtwe Israel aso wɔ ne nnebɔne ho no, mɛsɛe afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El; wɔbɛtwitwa afɔrebukyia no mmɛn na abu ahwe fam.

15 And Y schal smyte the wynter hous with the somer hous, and the housis of yuer schulen perische, and many housis schulen be distried, seith the Lord.

Mɛdwiri awɔberɛ efie ne ahuhuro berɛ efie agu; na afie a wɔde asonse adura ho no wɔbɛsɛe no na afie akɛseɛ no nso wɔbɛbubu agu,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
