< Jeremiah 15 >
1 And the Lord seide to me, Thouy Moises and Samuel stoden bifore me, my soule is not to this puple; caste thou hem out fro my face, and go thei out.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Sɛ mpo, Mose ne Samuel bɛgyinaa mʼanim a, mʼakoma rentɔ nkɔ saa nnipa yi so. Ma wɔmfiri mʼani so! Ma wɔnkɔ!
2 That if thei seien to thee, Whidur schulen we go out? thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord seith these thingis, Thei that to deth, to deth, and thei that to swerd, to swerd, and thei that to hungur, to hungur, and thei that to caitiftee, to caitifte.
Na sɛ wɔbisa wo sɛ, ‘Ɛhe na yɛnkorɔ’ a, ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Sei na Awurade seɛ: “‘Wɔn a wɔahyɛ owuo ama wɔn no bɛkɔ owuom; wɔn a wɔahyɛ akofena ama wɔn no bɛtotɔ akofena ano; wɔn a wɔahyɛ ɛkɔm ama wɔn no, ɛkɔm bɛde wɔn; wɔn a wɔahyɛ nnommumfa ama wɔn no bɛkɔ nnommumfa mu.’
3 Y schal visite on hem foure spices, seith the Lord; a swerd to sleeynge, and doggis for to reende, and volatilis of the eir, and beestis of the erthe to deuoure and to distrie.
“Mede adesɛefoɔ ahodoɔ ɛnan bɛba wɔn so,” Awurade na ɔseɛ: “akofena a ɛbɛkum wɔn, nkraman a ɛbɛtwe wɔn ase akɔ, ewiem nnomaa ne asase so mmoa a wɔbɛtete wɔn nam asɛe wɔn.
4 And Y schal yyue hem in to feruour to alle rewmes of erthe, for Manasses, the sone of Ezechie, king of Juda, on alle thingis whiche he dide in Jerusalem.
Mɛma wɔn ayɛ akyiwadeɛ ama asase so ahennie nyinaa ɛsiane deɛ Yudahene Hesekia babarima Manase yɛɛ wɔ Yerusalem enti.
5 For whi who schal haue merci on thee, Jerusalem, ethir who schal be sori for thee, ether who schal go to preie for thi pees?
“Hwan na ɔbɛhunu wo mmɔbɔ, Ao Yerusalem? Hwan na ɔbɛgyam wo? Hwan na ɔbɛgyina abisa sɛdeɛ wo ho teɛ?
6 Thou hast forsake me, seith the Lord, thou hast go abac; and Y schal stretche forth myn hond on thee, and Y schal sle thee; Y trauelide preiyng.
Woapo me,” Awurade na ɔseɛ. “Wogu akyirisane so ara. Ɛno enti mɛtene me nsa wɔ wo so na masɛe wo. Me yam renhyehye me mma wo bio.
7 And Y schal scatere hem with a wyndewynge instrument in the yatis of erthe; Y killide, and loste my puple, and netheles thei turneden not ayen fro her weies.
Mede huhusoɔ apaawa bɛhuhu wɔn so wɔ asase no kuropɔn apono ano. Mede owuo ne adesɛeɛ bɛba me nkurɔfoɔ so, ɛfiri sɛ wɔnsesaa wɔn akwan.
8 The widewis therof ben multiplied to me aboue the grauel of the see; and Y brouyte in to hem a distriere in myddai on the modir of a yonge man, Y sente drede sudeynli on citees.
Mɛma wɔn akunafoɔ adɔɔso asene mpoano anwea. Mede ɔsɛefoɔ bɛba owigyinaeɛ abɛtia wɔn mmeranteɛ maamenom; mpofirim mede ɔyea ne ehu bɛba wɔn so.
9 Sche was sijk that childide seuene, hir soule failide; the sunne yede doun to hir, whanne dai was yit. Sche was schent, and was aschamed; and Y schal yyue the residue therof in to swerd in the siyt of her enemyes, seith the Lord.
Ɔbaatan a wawo nson bɛtɔ baha, na wagyae mu. Nʼawia bɛtɔ ɛberɛ a adeɛ nsaeɛ; wɔbɛgu nʼanim ase abrɛ no ase. Mede nkaeɛfoɔ no bɛma akofena wɔ wɔn atamfoɔ anim,” Awurade na ɔseɛ.
10 Mi modir, wo to me; whi gendridist thou me a man of chidyng, a man of discord in al the lond? Y lente not, nether ony man lente to me; alle men cursen me, the Lord seith.
Ao, me maame a wowoo me, anka mewuiɛ a, anka ɛyɛ. Asase sofoɔ nyinaa ne me ham, di apereapereɛ! Memfɛm obi adeɛ, na memmɔɔ obi hɔ bosea, nanso obiara dome me.
11 No man bileue to me, if thi remenauntis be not in to good, if Y ranne not to thee in the tyme of turment, and in the tyme of tribulacioun and of anguysch, ayens the enemye.
Awurade kaa sɛ, “Nokorɛm mɛgye wo ama botaeɛ pa bi; ampa ara mɛma wʼatamfoɔ apa wo kyɛw wɔ amanehunu ne ahohia mmerɛ mu.
12 Whether yrun and metal schal be ioyned bi pees to irun fro the north?
“Onipa bɛtumi abu dadeɛ mu dadeɛ a ɛfiri atifi fam, anaa kɔbere?
13 And Y schal yyue freli thi ritchessis and thi tresouris in to rauyschyng, for alle thi synnes, and in alle thin endis.
“Mede mo ahodeɛ ne mo akoradeɛ bɛma sɛ wɔmfom a wɔrentua ka, ɛsiane mo nnebɔne nyinaa wɔ mo ɔman no mu enti.
14 And Y schal brynge thin enemyes fro the lond which thou knowist not; for fier is kyndlid in my strong veniaunce, and it schal brenne on you.
Mede mo bɛyɛ nkoa ama mo atamfoɔ wɔ ɔman a monnim soɔ so, mʼabufuo bɛma ogya adɛre na ɛbɛhye mo.”
15 Lord, thou knowist, haue thou mynde on me, and visite me, and delyuere me fro hem that pursuen me; nyle thou take me in thi pacience, knowe thou, that Y suffride schenschipe for thee.
Wote aseɛ, Ao Awurade; kae me na hwɛ me so. Tɔ wɔn a wɔtaa me so awere. Wowɔ abodwokyerɛ, mma me nwu; hwɛ sɛdeɛ wo enti wɔbɔ me ahohora.
16 Thi wordis ben foundun, and Y eet tho; and thi word was maad to me in to ioye, and in to gladnesse of myn herte; for thi name, Lord God of oostis, is clepid to help on me.
Wo nsɛm baeɛ no, mediiɛ; ɛyɛɛ mʼahosɛpɛ ne mʼakoma apɛdeɛ, na wo din da me so, Ao, Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn.
17 Y sat not in the counsel of pleieris, and Y hadde glorie for the face of thin hond; Y sat aloone, for thou fillidist me with bittirnesse.
Mantena wɔn a wɔgye wɔn ani fekuo mu. Me ne wɔn annye wɔn ani; metee me ho tenaeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ wo nsa daa me so na wʼabofuo hyɛɛ me ma.
18 Whi is my sorewe maad euerlastinge, and my wounde dispeirid forsook to be curid? it is maad to me, as a leesyng of vnfeithful watris.
Adɛn enti na me yea to ntwa da na mʼapirakuro ayɛ nkudaa a ano yɛ den? Wopɛ sɛ woyɛ sɛ nnaadaa asuwa ma me, sɛ asutire a ɛweɛ anaa?
19 For this thing the Lord seith these thingis, If thou turnest, Y schal turne thee, and thou schalt stonde bifore my face; and if thou departist preciouse thing fro vijl thing, thou schalt be as my mouth; thei schulen be turned to thee, and thou schalt not be turned to hem.
Enti sei na Awurade seɛ, “Sɛ wosakyera wʼadwene a, mɛgye wo ato mu bio na wasom me; sɛ nsɛm a ɛdi mu firi wʼanomu, na ɛnyɛ nsɛm huhuo a, wobɛyɛ me kasamafoɔ. Ma saa nnipa yi nnane mmra wo nkyɛn, na wo deɛ ɛnsɛ sɛ wodane kɔ wɔn nkyɛn.
20 And Y schal yyue thee in to a brasun wal and strong to this puple, and thei schulen fiyte ayens thee, and schulen not haue the victorie; for Y am with thee, to saue thee, and to delyuere thee, seith the Lord.
Mede wo bɛyɛ ɔfasuo ama saa nnipa yi, banbɔ ɔfasuo a wɔde kɔbere ato; wɔ ne wo bɛdi asie nanso wɔrenni wɔ so nkonim, ɛfiri sɛ me ne wo wɔ hɔ sɛ mɛyi wo na magye wo nkwa,” Awurade, na ɔseɛ.
21 And Y schal delyuere thee fro the hond of the worste men, and Y schal ayenbie thee fro the hond of stronge men.
“Mɛgye wo nkwa afiri amumuyɛfoɔ nsam na mayi wo afiri atirimuɔdenfoɔ nsam.”
