< Isaiah 22 >
1 The birthun of the valei of visioun. What also is to thee, for and al thou stiedist in to roouys,
Nkɔmhyɛ a etia Anisoadehu Bon no: Dɛn na ɛhaw mo mprempren, a mo nyinaa aforo kɔ adan atifi yi,
2 thou ful of cry, a citee of myche puple, a citee ful out ioiynge? thi slayn men weren not slayn bi swerd, nether thi deed men weren deed in batel.
kurow a basabasayɛ ahyɛ no ma, huuyɛ ne ahosɛpɛw kuropɔn? Ɛnyɛ afoa ano na wʼatɔfo hweree wɔn nkwa, na wɔanwuwu wɔ ɔko ano nso.
3 Alle thi princes fledden togidere, and weren boundun harde; alle that weren foundun, weren boundun togidere, thei fledden fer.
Mo akannifo nyinaa abɔ mu aguan; wɔamfa tadua ankyekye wɔn. Mo a wɔkyeree mo nyinaa wɔfaa mo nneduafo mo a muguan wɔ bere a na atamfo no wɔ akyirikyiri.
4 Therfor Y seide, Go ye awei fro me, Y schal wepe bittirli; nyle ye be bisie to coumforte me on the distriyng of the douyter of my puple.
Enti mekae se, “Mumfi me so na mintwa adwo. Monnkyekye me werɛ wɔ me nkurɔfo sɛe ho.”
5 For whi a dai of sleyng, and of defoulyng, and of wepyngis, is ordeined of the Lord God of oostis, in the valei of visioun; and he serchith the walle, and is worschipful on the hil.
Awurade, Asafo Awurade wɔ da bi ma huuyɛ, ntiatiaso ne ehu wɔ Anisoadehu Bon no mu, da a wɔde bubu afasu na wɔde su kyerɛ mmepɔw.
6 And Helam took an arowe caas, and the chare of an horse man; and the scheeld made nakid the wal.
Elam fa bɛmma no ka ne nteaseɛnamkafo ne apɔnkɔ ho; Kir ama kyɛm no so.
7 And thi chosun valeis, Jerusalem, schulen be ful of cartis; and knyytis schulen putte her seetis in the yate.
Nteaseɛnam ayɛ mo bon fɛfɛ no ma, na wɔde apɔnkɔsotefo agyinagyina kuropɔn apon no ano.
8 And the hilyng of Juda schal be schewid; and thou schalt se in that dai the place of armuris of the hous of the forest;
Wɔayi Yuda ho bammɔ no. Na da no wode wʼani too akode a ɛwɔ Kwae mu Ahemfi no so;
9 and ye schulen se the crasyngis of the citee of Dauid, for tho ben multiplied. Ye gaderiden togidere the watris of the lowere cisterne,
wuhuu sɛ Dawid Kuropɔn no, akwan bebree deda ne bammɔ mu woboaa nsu ano wɔ Ase Abura mu.
10 and ye noumbriden the housis of Jerusalem, and ye distrieden housis, to make strong the wal; and ye maden a lake bitwixe twei wallis,
Wokan adan a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no na wudwiriw afi de boaa ɔfasu no ahoɔden.
11 and ye restoriden the watir of the elde sisterne; and ye biholden not to hym, that made `thilke Jerusalem, and ye sien not the worchere therof afer.
Woyɛɛ nsukorae wɔ afasu abien no ntam maa nsu a ɛwɔ Abura Dedaw mu no, nanso woanhwehwɛ Onipa ko a ɔyɛe, na woammu Onipa a ɔhyehyɛe dedaada no.
12 And the Lord God of oostis schal clepe in that dai to wepyng, and to morenyng, and to ballidnesse, and to a girdil of sak; and lo!
Awurade, Asafo Awurade, frɛɛ wo saa da no sɛ su na twa adwo, sɛ yi wo tinwi na fura atweaatam.
13 ioie and gladnesse is to sle caluys, and to strangle wetheris, to ete fleisch, and to drynke wyn; ete we, and drynke we, for we schulen die to morewe.
Nanso hwɛ, anigye ne ahosɛpɛw wɔ hɔ; wokunkum anantwi ne nguan; wɔwe nam na wɔbow nsa! Wɔka se, “Momma yennidi na yɛnnom, efisɛ, ɔkyena yebewu!”
14 And the vois of the Lord of oostis is schewid in myn eeris, This wickidnesse schal not be foryouun to you, til ye dien, seith the Lord God of oostis.
Awurade, Asafo Awurade ayi me asotiw se, “Wɔremfa saa bɔne yi nkyɛ wo da kosi wo wuda,” sɛnea Awurade, Asafo Awurade se ni.
15 The Lord God of oostis seith these thingis, Go thou, and entre to hym that dwellith in the tabernacle, to Sobna, the souereyn of the temple; and thou schalt seie to hym,
Sɛɛ na Awurade, Asafo Awurade se, “Kɔ, kɔka kyerɛ saa ɔsomfo yi, Sebna a, ɔhwɛ ahemfi no so se,
16 What thou here, ethir as who here? for thou hast hewe to thee a sepulcre here, thou hast hewe a memorial in hiy place diligentli, a tabernacle in a stoon to thee.
Dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha na hena na ɔmaa wo kwan sɛ bɔ wo da wɔ ha, worebɔ wo da wɔ baabi a ɛkorɔn na woretwa wo homebea wɔ ɔbotan mu?
17 Lo! the Lord schal make thee to be borun out, as a kapoun is borun out, and as a cloth, so he shal reise thee.
“Hwɛ yiye, na Awurade rebeso wo mu den atow wo akyene, wo ɔhoɔdenfo.
18 He crowninge schal crowne thee with tribulacioun; he schal sende thee as a bal in to a large lond and wijd; there thou schalt die, and there schal be the chare of thi glorie, and the schenschipe of the hous of thi Lord.
Ɔbɛbobɔw wo, ama woayɛ kurukuruwa, na watow wo akyene ɔman kɛse bi so hɔ na wubewu na wo teaseɛnam fɛfɛ no aka hɔ, wo a woyɛ ahohora ma wo wura fi!
19 And Y schal caste thee out of thi stondyng, and Y schal putte thee doun of thi seruyce.
Megye wʼadwuma afi wo nsa mu na wɔayi wo afi wo dibea so.
20 And it schal be, in that dai Y schal clepe my seruaunt Eliachim, the sone of Helchie; and Y schal clothe hym in thi coote,
“Saa da no, mɛfrɛ me somfo Eliakim a ɔyɛ Hilkia babarima.
21 and Y schal coumforte hym with thi girdil, and Y shal yyue thi power in to the hondis of hym; and he schal be as a fadir to hem that dwellen in Jerusalem, and to the hous of Juda.
Mede wʼatade yuu bɛhyɛ no na mede wʼabɔso abebare nʼasen mu na mede wo tumi ahyɛ ne nsa. Ɔbɛyɛ agya ama wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem ne Yuda fi.
22 And Y schal yyue the keie of the hous of Dauyd on his schuldre; and he schal opene, and noon schal be that schal schitte; and he schal schitte, and noon schal be that schal opene.
Mede Dawid fi safe bɛma no; nea obebue no obiara rentumi nto mu; na nea ɔbɛto mu nso a obiara rentumi mmue.
23 And Y schal sette hym a stake in a feithful place, and he schal be in to the seete of glorie of the hous of his fadir.
Mɛbɔ ne so sɛ pɛe ama watim, ɔbɛyɛ anuonyam agua ama nʼagya fi.
24 And thou schalt hange on hym al the glorie of the hous of his fadir, diuerse kindis of vessels, eche litil vessel, fro the vesselis of cuppis `til to ech vessel of musikis.
Nʼabusua anuonyam nyinaa begyina ne so: nʼasefo ne ne nenanom, ne nkuku ne nkaka, fi nsanka, mprɛte so kosi nhina nyinaa so.
25 In that dai, seith the Lord of oostis, the stake that was set in the feithful place, schal be takun awei, and it schal be brokun, and schal falle doun; and schal perische that hangide therynne, for the Lord spak.
“Saa da no,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni, “pɛe a wɔabɔ so ama atim no, betu ahwe fam na nʼadesoa no nso asɛe, Awurade, akasa!”
