Ezekiel 14
1 And men of the eldris of Israel camen to me, and saten bifor me.
Israel mpanyimfo no mu bi baa me nkyɛn bɛtenatenaa mʼanim.
2 And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide, Sone of man,
Afei Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
3 these men han set her vnclennesses in her hertis, and han set stidfastli the sclaundre of her wickidnesse ayens her face. Whether Y `that am axid, schal answere to hem?
“Onipa ba, saa mmarima yi de ahoni ahyɛ wɔn koma mu na wɔde amumɔyɛ hintidua asisi wɔn anim. Ɛsɛ sɛ mema wobisa mʼase koraa ana?
4 For this thing speke thou to hem, and thou schalt seie to hem, These thingis seith the Lord God, A man, a man of the hous of Israel, that settith hise vnclennessis in his herte, and settith stidfastli the sclaundre of his wickidnesse ayens his face, and cometh to the profete, and axith me bi hym, Y the Lord schal answere to hym in the multitude of hise vnclennessis;
Enti kasa kyerɛ wɔn na ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ Israelni biara de ahoni hyehyɛ ne koma mu na ɔde amumɔyɛ hintidua sisi nʼanim, na afei ɔkɔ odiyifo nkyɛn a, me Awurade, mɛma no mmuae a ɛfata nʼahonisom no kɛseyɛ.
5 that the hous of Israel be takun in her herte, bi which thei yeden awei fro me in alle her idols.
Mɛyɛ eyi de atwe Israelfo a wɔagyaw me akodi wɔn abosom akyi no koma aba bio.’
6 Therfor seie thou to the hous of Israel, The Lord God seith these thingis, Be ye conuertid, and go ye awei fro youre idols, and turne awei youre faces fro alle youre filthis.
“Enti ka kyerɛ Israelfi se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Monsakra mo adwene. Mumfi mo ahoni ho na munnyae mo nneyɛe a ɛyɛ akyiwade no!
7 For whi a man, a man of the hous of Israel, and of conuersis, who euer is a comelyng in Israel, if he is alienyd fro me, and settith hise idols in his herte, and settith stidfastli the sclaundir of his wickidnesse ayens his face, and he cometh to the profete, to axe me bi hym, Y the Lord schal answere hym bi my silf.
“‘Sɛ Israelni bi anaa ɔnanani a ɔte Israel twe ne ho fi me nkyɛn na ɔde ahoni hyɛ ne koma mu de amumɔyɛ hintidua si nʼanim, na afei ɔkɔ odiyifo nkyɛn kobisa mʼase a, me, Awurade ankasa bebua no.
8 And Y schal sette my face on that man, and Y schal make hym in to ensaumple, and in to a prouerbe, and Y schal leese hym fro the myddis of my puple; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
Metu mʼani asa onipa no na mede no ayɛ nhwɛso ne kasabebui. Meyi no afi me nkurɔfo mu. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’
9 And whanne a profete errith, and spekith a word, Y the Lord schal disseyue that profete; and Y schal stretche forth myn hond on hym, and Y schal do hym awei fro the myddis of my puple Israel.
“‘Na sɛ odiyifo no ma wɔdaadaa no ma ɔhyɛ nkɔm a, me Awurade na madaadaa odiyifo no, mɛteɛ me nsa wɔ ne so na matwa no afi me nkurɔfo Israelfo mu.
10 And thei schulen bere her wickidnesse; bi the wickidnesse of the axere, so the wickidnesse of the profete schal be;
Wɔbɛsoa wɔn afɔdi; odiyifo no ne nea okohuu no no nyinaa bedi fɔ.
11 that the hous of Israel erre no more fro me, nether be defoulid in alle her trespassyngis; but that it be in to a puple to me, and Y be in to a God to hem, seith the Lord of oostis.
Na Israelfo renkwati me bio, na wɔremfa wɔn nnebɔne no ngu wɔn ho fi bio. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfo na mɛyɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
12 And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
13 Sone of man, whanne the lond synneth ayens me, that it trespassynge do trespas, Y schal stretche forth myn hond on it, and Y schal al to-breke the yerde of breed therof; and Y schal sende hungur in to it, and Y schal sle of it man and beeste.
“Onipa ba, sɛ ɔman bi anni me nokware na enti wɔyɛ bɔne de tia me, na meteɛ me nsa wɔ wɔn so na migyae wɔn aduanma, na mema ɔkɔm ba bekunkum mu nnipa ne wɔn mmoa a,
14 And if these thre men Noe, Danyel, and Job, ben in the myddis therof, thei bi her riytfulnesse schulen delyuere her soulis, seith the Lord of oostis.
mpo sɛ saa nnipa baasa a wɔyɛ Noa, Daniel ne Hiob wɔ ɔman no mu a, wɔn trenee begye wɔn nko ara nkwa, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
15 That if also Y brynge in worste beestis on the lond, that Y distrie it, and if it is with out weie, for that no passer is for the beestis,
“Anaa sɛ mema wuram mmoa kɔ saa asase no so na wokunkum so nnipa nyinaa na asase no sɛe a obiara ntumi mfa so, esiane wuram mmoa no nti a,
16 and these thre men, that `ben bifore seid, ben therynne, Y lyue, seith the Lord God, for thei schulen nethir delyuere sones, nether douytris, but thei aloone schulen be deliuered; forsothe the lond schal be maad desolat.
sɛ mete ase yi, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni, mpo sɛ saa mmarima baasa yi wɔ asase no so a, wɔrentumi nnye wɔn ankasa mmabarima ne mmabea nkwa. Wɔn nko ara na wobegye wɔn nkwa na asase no bɛsɛe.
17 Ethir if Y brynge in swerd on that lond, and Y seie to the swerd, Passe thou thorouy the lond, and Y sle of it man and beeste,
“Sɛ nso metwe afoa wɔ asase no so, na meka se, ‘Ma afoa no nkɔ asase no so nyinaa,’ na mikunkum so nnipa ne wɔn mmoa,
18 and these thre men ben in the myddis therof, Y lyue, seith the Lord God, that thei schulen not delyuere sones nether douytris, but thei aloone schulen be delyuered.
sɛ mete ase yi, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni, mpo sɛ saa mmarima baasa yi wɔ asase no so a, wɔrentumi nnye wɔn ankasa mmabarima ne mmabea nkwa. Wɔn nko ara na wobenya nkwa.
19 Forsothe if Y brynge in also pestilence on that lond, and Y schede out myn indignacioun on it in blood, that Y do awei fro it man and beeste,
“Sɛ nso mesoma ɔyaredɔm kɔ asase no so na menam mʼabufuwhyew so hwie mogya gu wɔ asase no so, kunkum so nnipa ne wɔn mmoa a,
20 and Noe, and Danyel, and Joob, ben in the myddis therof, Y lyue, seith the Lord God, for thei schulen not delyuere a sone and a douyter, but thei bi her riytfulnesse schulen delyuere her soulis.
sɛ mete ase yi, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni, sɛ Noa, Daniel ne Hiob mpo wɔ hɔ a, wɔrentumi nnye ɔbabarima anaa ɔbabea nkwa. Wɔn trenee nti wobegye wɔn nkwa.
21 For the Lord God seith these thingis, That thouy Y sende in my foure worste domes, swerd, and hungur, and yuele beestis, and pestilence, in to Jerusalem, that Y sle of it man and beeste,
“Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛbɛyɛ hu mmoroso sɛ mɛma mʼatemmu huhuhuhu anan, a ɛyɛ afoa, ɔkɔm, wuram mmoa ne ɔyaredɔm akɔ Yerusalem so akokunkum ne mmarima ne wɔn mmoa!
22 netheles saluacioun of hem that leden out sones and douytris, schal be left ther ynne. Lo! thei schulen go out to you, and ye schulen se the weie of hem, and the fyndyngis of hem; and ye schulen be coumfortid on the yuel, which Y brouyte in on Jerusalem, in alle thingis whiche Y bar in on it.
Nanso ebinom bɛka, mmabarima ne mmabea a wobeyi wɔn afi mu no. Wɔbɛba mo nkyɛn na sɛ muhu wɔn su ne wɔn nneyɛe a, mo bo bɛtɔ mo yam wɔ amanehunu a me de aba Yerusalem so no ho, amanehunu a mede aba ne so biara.
23 And thei schulen coumforte you, whanne ye schulen se the weie of hem and the fyndyngis of hem; and ye schulen knowe, that not in veyn Y dide alle thingis, what euer thingis Y dide there ynne, seith the Lord almyyti.
Sɛ muhu wɔn su ne wɔn nneyɛe a mo bo bɛtɔ mo yam, efisɛ mubehu sɛ, menyɛɛ biribiara wɔ hɔ a enni farebae, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
