Jeremiah 14
1 The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, of the wordis of dryenesse.
Yei ne Awurade asɛm a ɔde maa Yeremia a ɛfa nsuweɛ ho:
2 Jude weilide, and the yatis therof fellen doun, and ben maad derk in erthe, and the cry of Jerusalem stiede.
“Yuda di awerɛhoɔ ne nkuropɔn hunu amane. Wɔbɔ asase no ho abubuo, na wɔsu wɔ Yerusalem.
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 asomfoɔ ma wɔkɔpɛ nsuo; wɔkɔhwɛ ankorɛ mu nanso wɔnnya nsuo. Wɔde wɔn nsuhina sane ba a hwee nni mu; wɔkatakata wɔn tiri so wɔ abotuo ne abasamutuo mu.
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 ɛfiri sɛ osuo ntɔ wɔ asase no so; akuafoɔ no bo atu na wɔkata wɔn tiri so.
5 For whi and an hynde caluyde in the feeld, and lefte her calues, for noon eerbe was;
Mpo ɔforotebereɛ a ɔwɔ ɛserɛ so gya ne ba a wawo no foforɔ ɛfiri sɛ ɛserɛ biara nni hɔ.
6 and wield assis stoden in rochis, and drowen wynde as dragouns; her iyen failiden, for noon eerbe was.
Ɛsrɛ so mfunumu gyinagyina nkokoɔ wesee no so home sɛ sakraman; wɔkenakena wɔn ani hwehwɛ adidibea nanso wɔnhunu 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.
Ɛwom sɛ yɛn amumuyɛ di adanseɛ tia yɛn deɛ, nanso Ao Awurade, wo din enti yɛ ho biribi. Yɛn akyirisane dɔɔso; na yɛayɛ bɔne atia wo.
8 Thou abidyng of Israel, the sauyour therof in the tyme of tribulacioun,
Ao, Israel Anidasoɔ, yɛn Agyenkwa wɔ amanehunu mmerɛ mu, adɛn enti na woayɛ sɛ ɔhɔhoɔ wɔ asase no so, te sɛ ɔkwantuni a ɔsoɛ anadwo pɛ?
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 enti na woayɛ sɛ obi a adeɛ afu ne mu yi, te sɛ ɔkofoɔ a ɔnni ahoɔden a ɔde boa? Wowɔ yɛn ntam, Ao Awurade na wo din da yɛn so; nnya 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.
Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka fa saa nnipa yi ho: “Wɔn ani gye akyinkyinakyinkyini ho bebree; wɔmma wɔn nan nhome. Ɛno enti Awurade nnye wɔn nto mu; afei ɔbɛkae wɔn amumuyɛsɛm 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 sɛ, “Mmɔ yieyɛ ho mpaeɛ 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 ɛwom sɛ wɔdi mmuada deɛ, nso merentie wɔn sufrɛ; ɛwom sɛ wɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne aduane afɔdeɛ deɛ, nso merennye. Mmom, mede akofena ɛkɔm 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 mekaa sɛ, “Ao, Otumfoɔ Awurade, adiyifoɔ no ka kyerɛ wɔn daa sɛ, ‘Monnhunu akofena na ɛkɔm remma. Nokorɛm mema mo asomdwoeɛ 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 sɛ, “Adiyifoɔ no hyɛ nkɔmtorɔ wɔ me din mu. Mensomaa wɔn mennyii wɔn, na menkasa nkyerɛɛ wɔn. Wɔrehyɛ nkɔm afa atorɔ anisoadehunu, nsumansɛm, 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 enti, deɛ Awurade ka fa adiyifoɔ a wɔde me din hyɛ nkɔm no ho nie: mensomaa wɔn nanso wɔka sɛ, ‘Akofena biara anaa ɛkɔm biara remma asase yi so.’ Saa adiyifoɔ no ara bɛtotɔ akofena ano ne ɛkɔm 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, wɔbɛtoto wɔn agu Yerusalem mmɔntene so ɛsiane ɛkɔm ne akofena enti. Wɔrenya obiara nsie wɔn, wɔn yerenom, wɔn mmammarima anaa wɔn mmammaa. 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 nisuo nnware me anadwo ne awia a ɛtoɔ ntwa da ɛfiri sɛ me babaa bunu, me nkurɔfoɔ anya apirakuro a ɛyɛ hu na ɛyɛ ahodwirie mmorosoɔ.
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, mehunu nnipa a wɔatotɔ akofena ano; sɛ mekɔ kuropɔn no mu a mehunu ɛkɔm nsunsuansoɔ. Odiyifoɔ ne ɔsɔfoɔ nyinaa kɔ asase a wɔnnim 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 kora anaa? Wokyi Sion anaa? Adɛn enti na wode ɔhaw aba yɛn so na yɛnnya ayaresa? Yɛn ani daa asomdwoeɛ so, nanso ade papa biara mmaeɛ, yɛn ani daa ayaresaberɛ so nanso ehubɔ na ɛbaeɛ.
20 Lord, we han know oure vnfeithfulnessis, and the wickidnessis of oure fadris, for we han synned to thee.
Ao, Awurade, yɛagye yɛn amumuyɛ ato mu ne yɛn agyanom afɔdie; nokorɛm 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 enti mmu yɛn animtia; nhura wʼanimuonyam ahennwa 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 ahuhuo no mu bi ma osuo tɔ anaa? Anaasɛ ewiem bɛtumi ama obosuo apete? Dabi, ɛyɛ wo, Ao Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn. Enti wo so na yɛn ani da, yɛretwɛn mmoa afiri wo hɔ.
