Isaiah 58

1 Crye thou, ceesse thou not; as a trumpe enhaunse thi vois, and schewe thou to my puple her grete trespassis, and to the hous of Jacob her synnes.

“Monteam denden, monnnyae. Momma mo nne so sɛ totorobɛnto. Mompae mu nka me nkurɔfoɔ atuateɛ nkyerɛ wɔn na monka Yakob efie nso nnebɔne nkyerɛ no.

2 For thei seken me fro dai in to dai, and thei wolen knowe my weies; as a folk, that hath do riytfulnesse, and that hath not forsake the doom of her God; thei preien me domes of riytfulnesse, and wolen neiy to God.

Ɛda biara da wɔhwehwɛ me; ayɛ sɛ wɔpere sɛ wɔbɛhunu mʼakwan, te sɛ wɔyɛ ɔman a wɔyɛ deɛ ɛtene na wɔmpoo wɔn Onyankopɔn ahyɛdeɛ. Wɔbisa me hɔ asɛntenenee na ayɛ sɛ wɔpɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛn wɔn.

3 Whi fastiden we, and thou biheldist not; we mekiden oure soulis, and thou knewist not? Lo! youre wille is foundun in the dai of youre fastyng, and ye axen alle youre dettouris.

Wɔka sɛ, ‘Adɛn enti na yɛadi mmuada na woanhunu yi? Adɛn enti na yɛabrɛ yɛn ho ase, na woanhwɛ yi?’ “Nanso mo abuada da no, moyɛ deɛ mopɛ na mosisi mo adwumayɛfoɔ nyinaa.

4 Lo! ye fasten to chidyngis and stryuyngis, and smyten with the fist wickidli. Nyl ye fast, as `til to this dai, that youre cry be herd an hiy.

Ntɔkwa ne akasakasa na mode wie mo abuadadie, ne akuturuku a mode bobɔ mo ho. Morentumi nni mmuada sɛdeɛ moyɛ no ɛnnɛ yi na moahwɛ anim sɛ wɔbɛte mo nne wɔ soro.

5 Whether sich is the fastyng which Y chees, a man to turmente his soule bi dai? whether to bynde his heed as a sercle, and to make redi a sak and aische? Whethir thou schalt clepe this a fastyng, and a dai acceptable to the Lord?

Yei ne mmuadadie a mepɛ anaa? Ɛda koro pɛ a onipa de brɛ ne ho ase no anaa? Ɛne sɛ obi si ne tiri ase te sɛ demmire na ɔtena ayitoma so ne nsõ mu nko ara anaa? Yei na mofrɛ no abuadadie yi, ɛda a ɛsɔ Awurade ani yi ni anaa?

6 Whether not this is more the fastyng, which Y chees? Vnbynde thou the byndingis togidere of vnpitee, releesse thou birthuns pressynge doun; delyuere thou hem free, that ben brokun, and breke thou ech birthun.

“Saa mmuadadie yi na mepɛ: sɛ mobɛyiyi ntɛnkyea nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn na moasane kɔnnua nhoma, sɛ mobɛgyaa wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so na moabubu kɔnnua biara.

7 Breke thi breed to an hungri man, and brynge in to thin hous nedi men and herborles; whanne thou seest a nakid man, hile thou hym, and dispise not thi fleisch.

Ɛsɛ sɛ mo ne wɔn a ɛkɔm de wɔn kyɛ mo aduane na moma ohiani a ɔnenam no baabi tena. Sɛ mohunu deɛ ɔda adagya a, momfira no ntoma na monnyi mo ani mfiri mo yɔnko onipa so.

8 Thanne thi liyt schal breke out as the morewtid, and thin helthe schal rise ful soone; and thi riytfulnesse schal go bifore thi face, and the glorie of the Lord schal gadere thee.

Ɛno na mo hann bɛpue te sɛ ahemadakye, na mo ayaresa aba ntɛm so; afei mo tenenee bɛdi mo anim, na Awurade animuonyam bɛbɔ mo kyidɔm.

9 Thanne thou schalt clepe to help, and the Lord schal here; thou schalt crie, and he schal seie, Lo! Y am present, for Y am merciful, thi Lord God. If thou takist awei a chayne fro the myddis of thee, and ceessist to holde forth the fyngur, and to speke that profitith not;

Afei mobɛfrɛ, na Awurade bɛgye mo so; mobɛteam apɛ mmoa, na ɔbɛka sɛ: Me nie. “Sɛ moyi nhyɛsoɔ kɔnnua, nsa a motene wɔ onipa so ne ntwatoso firi hɔ,

10 whanne thou schedist out thi soule to an hungri man, and fillist a soule, `that is turmentid, thi liyt schal rise in derknessis, and thi derknessis schulen be as myddai.

na sɛ moha mo ho ma wɔn a ɛkɔm de wɔn na moma wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so no deɛ ɛhia wɔn a, ɛnneɛ mo nkanea bɛhyerɛn wɔ esum mu, na mo anadwo bɛyɛ sɛ owigyinaeɛ.

11 And the Lord thi God schal yyue euere reste to thee, and schal fille thi soule with schynyngis, and schal delyuere thi boonys; and thou schalt be as a watri gardyn, and as a welle of watris, whose waters schulen not faile.

Awurade bɛkyerɛ mo ɛkwan ɛberɛ biara; ɔbɛma mo deɛ ɛhia mo wɔ asase wesee so na ɔbɛhyɛ mo onipadua den. Mobɛyɛ sɛ turo a wɔgugu so nsuo yie, sɛ asuwa a emu nsuo nwe da.

12 And the forsakun thingis of worldis schulen be bildid in thee, and thou schalt reise the foundementis of generacioun and generacioun; and thou schalt be clepid a bildere of heggis, turnynge awei the pathis of wickidnessis.

Mo nkurɔfoɔ bɛsane asi teteete mmubuiɛ no, na wɔato fapem a akyɛre no; wɔbɛfrɛ mo Deɛ Ɔsiesie Afasuo a Abubu no, Deɛ Ɔsiesie Adan a Abubu.

13 If thou turnest awei thi foot fro the sabat, to do thi wille in myn hooli dai, and clepist the sabat delicat, and hooli, the gloriouse of the Lord, and glorifiest him, while thou doist not thi weies, and thi wille is not foundun, that thou speke a word;

“Sɛ mohwɛ mo anammɔntuo so yie Homeda na moannyɛ deɛ mopɛ wɔ me da kronkron no, sɛ mofrɛ Homeda no anigyeɛ da na modi Awurade da kronkron no ni na moamfa mo ara mo akwan so na moanyɛ deɛ mopɛ anaa moanka nsɛmhunu a,

14 thanne thou schalt delite on the Lord, and Y schal reise thee on the hiynesse of erthe, and Y schal fede thee with the eritage of Jacob, thi fadir; for whi the mouth of the Lord spak.

ɛnneɛ mobɛnya anigyeɛ wɔ Awurade mu na mɛma mo anante asase no sorɔnsorɔmmea so na moato pon wɔ mo agya Yakob agyapadeɛ so.” Awurade na aka.
