Isaiah 66
1 The Lord seith these thingis, Heuene is my seete, and the erthe is the stool of my feet. Which is this hous, which ye schulen bilde to me, and which is this place of my reste?
Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Ɔsoro yɛ mʼahennwa, na asase yɛ me nan ntiasoɔ. Ɛdan bɛn na wobɛsi ama me? Wobɛtumi asi ahomegyebea ama me?
2 Myn hond made alle these thingis, and alle these thingis ben maad, seith the Lord; but to whom schal Y biholde, no but to a pore man and contrit in spirit, and greetli dredynge my wordis?
Ɛnyɛ me nsa na ɛyɛɛ yeinom nyinaa, ɛna enti ɛbaa mu anaa?” Awurade na ɔseɛ. “Obi a mʼani sɔ no nie: deɛ ɔwɔ ahobrɛaseɛ ne ahonu honhom, na ne ho popo wɔ mʼasɛm ho.
3 He that offrith an oxe, is as he that sleeth a man; he that sleeth a scheep, is as he that brayneth a dogge; he that offrith an offryng, is as he that offrith swynes blood; he that thenketh on encense, is as he that blessith an idol; thei chesiden alle thes thingis in her weies, and her soule delitide in her abhomynaciouns.
Nanso, obi a ɔde nantwinini bɔ afɔdeɛ no saa ɔnipa no afɔdeɛ te sɛ onipa a wɔakum no de no abɔ afɔdeɛ, na deɛ ɔde odwammaa ba no, saa onipa no afɔdeɛ te sɛ ɔkraman a wɔakum no de no abɔ afɔdeɛ; deɛ ɔbɔ aduane afɔdeɛ no saa onipa no afɔdeɛ te sɛ prako mogya a wɔde bɔ afɔdeɛ, deɛ ɔhye nnuhwam a ɛwɔ din no saa onipa no afɔdeɛ no te sɛ deɛ wɔde som ɔbosom. Wɔafa wɔn ankasa akwan na wɔn ɔkra ani gye wɔn akyiwadeɛ ho;
4 Wherfor and Y schal chese the scornyngis of hem, and Y schal brynge to hem tho thingis whiche thei dredden; for Y clepide, and noon was that answeride; Y spak, and thei herden not; and thei diden yuel bifor myn iyen, and chesiden tho thingis whiche Y nolde.
enti me nso mɛpɛ aniɛyaadeɛ ayɛ wɔn na mede deɛ wɔsuro bɛba wɔn so. Ɛfiri sɛ mefrɛeɛ no, obiara annye so, mekasaeɛ no, obiara antie. Wɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ mʼani so na wɔyɛɛ deɛ mempɛ.”
5 Here ye the word of the Lord, whiche quaken at his word; youre britheren hatynge you, and castynge a wey for my name, seiden, The Lord be glorified, and we schulen se in youre gladnesse; forsothe thei schulen be schent.
Montie Awurade asɛm, mo a mote nʼasɛm a mo ho popo: “Mo nuanom mmarimma a me din enti wɔtane mo na wɔatwa mo agya no, wɔka sɛ, ‘Monhyɛ Awurade animuonyam, na yɛahunu mo anigyeɛ!’ Nanso wɔn anim bɛgu ase.
6 The vois of the puple fro the citee, the vois fro the temple, the vois of the Lord yeldynge a reward to hise enemyes.
Montie hooyɛ a ɛfiri kuropɔn no mu, montie gyegyeegye a ɛfiri asɔredan no mu! Ɛyɛ Awurade nnyegyeeɛ a ɔde retua nʼatamfoɔ ka sɛdeɛ ɛfata wɔn.
7 Bifor that sche trauelide of child, sche childide; bifor that the sorewe of hir child beryng cam, sche childide a sone.
“Ansa na ɔbaa bɛkyem no, ɔwo; ansa na ɔbɛte awoɔyaa no, ɔwo ɔbabarima.
8 Who herde euere suche a thing, and who siy a thing lijk this? Whether the erthe schal trauele of child in o dai, ether whether a folk schal be childide togidere? For whi Sion trauelede of child, and childide hir sones.
Hwan na wate biribi sei ho asɛm pɛn? Hwan na wahunu biribi sei pɛn? Wɔbɛtumi de da koro akyekyere ɔmansin anaa wɔbɛtumi akyekyere ɔman ɛberɛ sin bi mu? Nanso awoɔ ka Sion ara pɛ a ɔwo ne mma.
9 Whether that Y `my silf that make othere to bere child, schal not ber child? seith the Lord. Whether Y that yyue generacioun to othere men, schal be bareyn? seith thi Lord God.
Mede obi bɛduru awokoɔ ano a memma no nwo anaa?” Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie. “Mesi awotwaa ano ɛberɛ a awoɔ aduru so anaa?” Wo Onyankopɔn na ɔseɛ.
10 Be ye glad with Jerusalem, and alle ye that louen that, make ful out ioye ther ynne; alle ye that mourenen on that Jerusalem, make ye ioye with it in ioie;
Mo ne Yerusalem ani nnye na monni ahurisie mma no, mo a modɔ no nyinaa; mo ne no nsɛpɛ mo ho yie, mo a modi ne ho awerɛhoɔ nyinaa.
11 that bothe ye souke, and be fillid of the tetis and coumfort therof, that ye mylke, and flowe in delicis, of al maner glorie therof.
Mobɛnum nʼawerɛkyekyerɛ nufoɔ no amee; mobɛnom aboro so na mo ani bɛgye deɛ abu so atra so no ho.
12 For whi the Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bowe doun on it, as a flood of pees, and as a flowynge streem the glorie of hethene men, which ye schulen souke; ye schulen be borun at tetis, and on knees thei schulen speke plesauntly to you.
Na yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: “Mede asomdwoeɛ bɛma no sɛ asubɔnten, ne amanaman no ahonya nso sɛ asutene a ayiri. Mobɛnum na waturu mo wɔ ne basa so na ɔbɛgye mo agorɔ wɔ nʼanankoroma so.
13 As if a modir spekith faire to ony child, so Y schal coumforte you, and ye schulen be coumfortid in Jerusalem.
Sɛdeɛ ɔbaa kyekye ne ba werɛ no saa ara na mɛkyekye mo werɛ; na mobɛnya awerɛkyekyerɛ wɔ Yerusalem.”
14 Ye schulen se, and youre herte schal haue ioie, and youre boonys schulen buriowne as an erbe. And the hond of the Lord schal be knowun in hise seruauntis, and he schal haue indignacioun to hise enemyes.
Sɛ mohunu yei a, mo akoma ani bɛgye na mobɛyɛ frɔmm sɛ ɛserɛ; wɔbɛhunu Awurade nsa wɔ ne nkoa so, nanso wɔbɛhunu nʼabufuhyeɛ wɔ nʼatamfoɔ so.
15 For lo! the Lord schal come in fier, and as a whirlwynd hise charis, to yelde in indignacioun hise strong veniaunce, and his blamyng in the flawme of fier.
Hwɛ, Awurade de ogya reba, na ne nteaseɛnam te sɛ ntwahoframa; ɔde nʼabufuo bɛba wɔ anibereɛ so, na ɔde gyadɛreeɛ ayɛ nʼanimka.
16 For whi the Lord schal deme in fier, and in hys swerd to ech fleisch; and slayn men of the Lord schulen be multiplied,
Ogya ne nʼakofena na Awurade de bɛbu nnipa nyinaa atɛn, na wɔn a wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ Awurade nsa ano bɛyɛ bebree.
17 that weren halewid, and gessiden hem cleene, in gardyns aftir o yate with ynne; that eten swynes fleisch, and abhomynacioun, and a mows, thei schulen be waastid togidere, seith the Lord.
“Wɔn a wɔte wɔn ho na wɔdwira wɔn ho de kɔ nturo mu kɔsom abosom no, na wɔwe prakonam ne akusie ne nneɛma a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no, wɔn nyinaa bɛhunu wɔn awieeɛ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
18 Forsothe Y come to gadere togidere the werkis of hem, and the thouytis of hem, with alle folkis and langagis; and thei schulen come, and schulen se my glorie.
“Esiane wɔn nneyɛɛ ne wɔn nsusuiɛ enti, me, mereba abɛboaboa amanaman ne kasa ahodoɔ ano, na wɔbɛba abɛhunu mʼanimuonyam.
19 And Y schal sette a signe in hem, and Y schal sende of hem that ben sauyd to hethene men, in to the see, in to Affrik, and in to Liddia, and to hem that holden arowe, in to Italie, and Greek lond, to ilis fer, to hem that herden not of me, and sien not my glorie. And thei schulen telle my glorie to hethene men,
“Na mɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi wɔ wɔn mu, na mede nkaeɛfoɔ no mu bi bɛkɔ amanaman no mu: Tarsis, Libiafoɔ ne Lidiafoɔ (wɔn a wɔagye edin wɔ agyantoɔ mu), Tubal ne Helafoɔ, ne nsupɔ a ɛwɔ akyirikyiri a wɔntee me din a ahyeta na wɔnhunuu mʼanimuonyam. Wɔbɛpae mu aka mʼanimuonyam wɔ amanaman mu.
20 and thei schulen brynge alle youre britheren of alle folkis a yifte to the Lord, in horsis, and charis, and in literis, and in mulis, and in cartis, to myn hooli hil, Jerusalem, seith the Lord; as if the sones of Israel bryngen a yifte in a cleene vessel in to the hous of the Lord.
Na wɔde mo nuammarimanom nyinaa bɛfiri amanaman nyinaa so bɛba me bepɔ kronkron a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no so sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ama Awurade. Wɔtete apɔnkɔ so ne nteaseɛnam mu ne asako mu ne mfunumpɔnkɔ ne nyoma so bɛba,” sei na Awurade seɛ. “Wɔde wɔn bɛba sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ de wɔn aduane afɔdeɛ kɔ Awurade asɔredan mu, wɔ afahyɛ nkuruwa a ɛho teɛ mu.
21 And Y schal take of hem in to preestis and dekenes, seith the Lord.
Na mɛyi wɔn mu bi ayɛ asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ,” Awurade, na ɔseɛ!
22 For as newe heuenes and newe erthe, whiche Y make to stonde bifore me, seith the Lord, so youre seed schal stonde, and youre name.
“Sɛdeɛ ɔsorosoro foforɔ ne asase foforɔ bɛtena hɔ no, saa ara na mo din ne mo asefoɔ bɛtena hɔ,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
23 And a monethe schal be of monethe, and a sabat of sabat; ech man schal come for to worschipe bifore my face, seith the Lord.
“Ɛfiri Ɔsrane Foforɔ baako kɔpem foforɔ, ɛfiri Homeda baako kɔsi foforɔ no, adasamma nyinaa bɛba abɛkoto me,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
24 And thei schulen go out, and schulen se the careyns of men, that trespassiden ayens me; the worm of hem schal not die, and the fier of hem schal not be quenchid; and thei schulen be `til to fillyng of siyt to ech man.
“Na wɔbɛfiri adi akɔhunu wɔn a wɔtee atua tiaa me no afunu; wɔn asonsono renwu, na wɔn ogya nso rennum, na wɔn ho bɛyɛ adasamma nyinaa nwunu.”
