< Isaiah 20 >
1 In the yeer wherynne Tharthan entride in to Azotus, whanne Sargon, the kyng of Assiriens, hadde sent hym, and he hadde fouyte ayens Azotus, and hadde take it;
Afe a Asiriahene Sargon somaa ne ɔman no sahene kɔɔ Asdod kɔto hyɛɛ no so na ɔdii ne so nkonim no,
2 in that tyme the Lord spak in the hond of Isaye, the sone of Amos, and seide, Go thou, and vnbynde the sak fro thi leendis, and take awei thi schoon fro thi feet. And he dide so, goynge nakid and vnschood.
saa ɛberɛ no Awurade faa Yesaia, Amos babarima so kasaa sɛ, “Yi ayitoma no firi wo ho ne mpaboa no firi wo nan ase.” Ɔyɛɛ saa de adagya a ne nan nso sisi fam dii akɔneaba.
3 And the Lord seide, As my seruaunt Ysaie yede nakid and vnschood, a signe and greet wondur of thre yeer schal be on Egipt, and on Ethiopie;
Na Awurade kaa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ me ɔsomfoɔ Yesaia de adagya anante mfeɛ mmiɛnsa a ne nan nso sisi fam yi de ayɛ ɔhaw nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛtia Misraim ne Kus no,
4 so the kyng of Assiriens schal dryue the caitifte of Egipt, and the passyng ouer of Ethiopie, a yong man and an eld man, nakid and vnschood, with the buttokis vnhilid, to the schenschipe of Egipt.
saa ara na Asiriahene bɛdi Misraim nneduafoɔ ne Kus nnommumfoɔ a wɔdeda adagya na wɔn nan sisi fam, mmabunu ne mpanin a wɔn to deda so no anim, de agu Misraim anim ase.
5 And thei schulen drede, and schulen be schent of Ethiopie, her hope, and of Egipt, her glorie.
Wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho too Kus so, na wɔde Misraim hoahoaa wɔn ho no bɛsuro na wɔn ani awu.
6 And a dwellere of this ile schal seie in that dai, This was our hope, to which we fledden for help, that thei schulden delyuere vs fro the face of the kyng of Assiryens; and hou moun we ascape?
Saa ɛda no nnipa a wɔtete mpoano ha bɛka sɛ, ‘Monhwɛ asɛm a ato wɔn a yɛde yɛn ho too wɔn so no, wɔn a yɛdwane kɔɔ wɔn nkyɛn kɔpɛɛ mmoa sɛ wɔbɛgye yɛn afiri Asiriahene nsam no! Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na yɛadwane?’”
