Jeremiah 14
1 The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, of the wordis of dryenesse.
Eyi ne Awurade asɛm a ɔde maa Yeremia a ɛfa nsuyow ho:
2 Jude weilide, and the yatis therof fellen doun, and ben maad derk in erthe, and the cry of Jerusalem stiede.
“Yuda resu, ne nkuropɔn hu amane; wɔbɔ asase no ho abubuw, na osu foro fi Yerusalem kɔ.
3 Grettere men senten her lesse men to water; thei camen to drawe watir, and thei foundun no water, thei brouyten ayen her vessels voide; thei weren schent and turmentid,
Mmapɔmma soma wɔn asomfo ma wɔkɔhwehwɛ nsu; wɔkɔhwɛ ahina mu nanso wonnya nsu. Wɔde wɔn asuhina san ba a hwee nni mu; wɔde awerɛhow ne abawpa katakata wɔn ti so.
4 and thei hiliden her heedis for distriyng of the lond, for reyn cam not in the lond. Erthe tilieris weren schent, thei hiliden her heedis.
Asase no apaapae, efisɛ osu ntɔ wɔ asase no so; akuafo no koma atutu na wɔkata wɔn ti so.
5 For whi and an hynde caluyde in the feeld, and lefte her calues, for noon eerbe was;
Mpo ɔforotebere a ɔwɔ sare so gyaw ne ba a wawo no foforo, efisɛ sare biara nni hɔ.
6 and wield assis stoden in rochis, and drowen wynde as dragouns; her iyen failiden, for noon eerbe was.
Sare so mfurum gyinagyina nkoko wosee no so home sɛ sakraman; wɔkrankran wɔn ani hwehwɛ didibea nanso wonhu bi.”
7 If oure wickidnessis answeren to vs, Lord, do thou for thi name, for oure turnyngis awei ben manye; we han synned ayens thee.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ yɛn amumɔyɛ di adanse tia yɛn de, nanso Awurade, wo din nti yɛ ho biribi. Yɛn atuatew dɔɔso; na yɛayɛ bɔne atia wo.
8 Thou abidyng of Israel, the sauyour therof in the tyme of tribulacioun,
Wo a woyɛ Israel Anidaso, nʼAgyenkwa wɔ amanehunu mmere mu, adɛn nti na woayɛ sɛ ɔhɔho wɔ asase no so, sɛ ɔkwantuni a ɔsoɛ anadwo?
9 whi schalt thou be as a comelyng in the lond, and as a weigoere bowynge to dwelle? whi schalt thou be as a man of vnstable dwellyng, as a strong man that mai not saue? Forsothe, Lord, thou art in vs, and thin hooli name is clepid to help on vs; forsake thou not vs.
Adɛn nti na woayɛ sɛ obi a ade afu ne mu yi, sɛ ɔkofo a onni ahoɔden a ɔde boa? Wowɔ yɛn ntam, Awurade na wo din da yɛn so; nnyaw yɛn mu!
10 The Lord seith these thingis to this puple, that louede to stire hise feet, and restide not, and pleside not the Lord; now he schal haue mynde on the wickidnesses of hem, and he schal visite the synnes of hem.
Eyi ne nea Awurade ka fa saa nnipa yi ho: “Wɔn ani gye akyinkyinakyinkyin ho yiye; wɔmma wɔn anan nhome. Ɛno nti Awurade nnye wɔn nto mu; afei ɔbɛkae wɔn amumɔyɛsɛm no na watwe wɔn aso wɔ wɔn bɔne ho.”
11 And the Lord seide to me, Nyle thou preie for this puple in to good.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Mmɔ yiyeyɛ ho mpae mma saa nnipa yi.
12 Whanne thei schulen faste, Y schal not here the preieris of hem; and if thei offren brent sacrifices and slayn sacrifices, Y schal not resseyue tho, for Y schal waste hem bi swerd and hungur and pestilence.
Mmom ɛwɔ mu sɛ wodi mmuada de, nso merentie wɔn sufrɛ; ɛwɔ mu sɛ wɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne aduan afɔre de, nso merennye. Mmom, mede afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm bɛsɛe wɔn.”
13 And Y seide, A! A! A! Lord God, profetis seien to hem, Ye schulen not se swerd, and hungur schal not be in you, but he schal yyue to you veri pees in this place.
Nanso mekae se, “Ao, Otumfo Awurade, adiyifo no ka kyerɛ wɔn daa se, ‘Morenhu afoa, na ɔkɔm remma. Nokware mɛma mo asomdwoe a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa wɔ ha.’”
14 And the Lord seide to me, The profetis profesien falsli in my name; Y sente not hem, and Y comaundide not to hem, nether Y spak to hem; thei profesien to you a fals reuelacioun, and a gileful dyuynyng, and the disseyuyng of her herte.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Adiyifo no hyɛ akɔntoro wɔ me din mu. Mensomaa wɔn, minnyii wɔn na menkasa nkyerɛɛ wɔn ɛ. Wɔrehyɛ nkɔm fa atoro anisoadehu, asumansɛm, abosonsom ne wɔn ankasa nnaadaa adwene ho.
15 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis of the profetis that profesien in my name, whiche Y sente not, and seien, Swerd and hungur schal not be in this lond; Tho profetis schulen be wastid bi swerd and hungur.
Ɛno nti, nea Awurade ka fa adiyifo a wɔde me din hyɛ nkɔm no ho ni: mensomaa wɔn nanso wɔka se, ‘Afoa biara anaa ɔkɔm biara remma asase yi so.’ Saa adiyifo no ara bɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano ne ɔkɔm mu.
16 And the puplis, to whiche thei profesieden, schulen be cast forth in the weies of Jerusalem, for hungur and swerd, and noon schal be, that schal birie hem; they and the wyues of hem, the sones and the douytris of hem `schulen be cast forth; and Y schal schede out on hem her yuel.
Na nnipa a wɔhyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ wɔn no, wɔbɛtotow wɔn agu Yerusalem mmɔnten so esiane ɔkɔm ne afoa nti. Wɔrenya obiara nsie wɔn: wɔn yerenom, wɔn mmabarima anaa wɔn mmabea. Mɛma amanehunu a ɛfata wɔn aba wɔn so.
17 And thou schalt seie to hem this word, Myn iyen lede doun a teer bi niyt and dai, and be not stille, for the virgyn, the douyter of my puple, is defoulid bi greet defoulying, with the worste wounde greetli.
“Ka saa asɛm yi kyerɛ wɔn: “‘ma nisu nguare me anadwo ne awia, a to ntwa, efisɛ Ɔbabea Babun no, me nkurɔfo, anya apirakuru a ɛyɛ hu na ɛyɛ ahodwiriw mmoroso.
18 If Y go out to feeldis, lo! men ben slayn bi swerd; and if Y entre in to the citee, lo! men ben maad leene for hungur; also a profete and a prest yeden in to the lond which thei knewen not.
Sɛ mekɔ ɔman no mu a, mihu nnipa a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano; sɛ mekɔ kuropɔn no mu a mihu ɔkɔm nsunsuanso. Odiyifo ne ɔsɔfo nyinaa kɔ asase a wonnim so so.’”
19 Whether thou castynge awei hast cast awei Juda, ether thi soule hath wlatid Sion? whi therfor hast thou smyte vs, so that noon heelthe is? We abididen pees, and no good is; and we abididen time of heeling, and lo! disturbling is.
Woapo Yuda koraa ana? Wubu Sion animtiaa ana? Adɛn nti na wode ɔhaw aba yɛn so na yennya ayaresa? Yɛn ani daa asomdwoe so, nanso ade papa biara mmaa ɛ; yɛn ani daa ayaresa bere so nanso ehu na ɛbae.
20 Lord, we han know oure vnfeithfulnessis, and the wickidnessis of oure fadris, for we han synned to thee.
Awurade, yegye yɛn amumɔyɛ ne yɛn agyanom afɔdi to mu; nokware, yɛayɛ bɔne atia wo.
21 Yyue thou not vs in to schenschip, for thi name, nether do thou dispite to vs; haue thou mynde on the seete of thi glorie, make thou not voide thi boond of pees with vs.
Na wo din nti mmu yɛn animtiaa; nhura wʼanuonyam ahengua no ho. Kae wo ne yɛn apam no na mmu so.
22 Whether in grauun ymagis of hethene men ben thei that reynen, ethir heuenes moun yyue reynes? whether thou art not oure Lord God, whom we abididen? For thou madist alle these thingis.
Na amanaman ahoni ahuhuw no mu bi ma osu tɔ ana? Wim ankasa na ɛtɔ obosu ana? Dabi da, ɛyɛ wo, Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn. Enti wo so na yɛn ani da, na wo na woyɛ eyinom nyinaa.
