< Joel 3 >

1 For lo! in tho daies, and in that tyme, whanne Y schal turne the caitifte of Juda and of Jerusalem,
“Saa nna no mu, mede Yuda ne Yerusalem ahonyadeɛ bɛsane aba.
2 Y schal gadere alle folkis, and Y schal lede hem in to the valei of Josephat; and Y schal dispute there with hem on my puple, and myn eritage Israel, whiche thei scateriden among naciouns; and thei departiden my lond, and senten lot on my puple;
Mɛboa aman nyinaa ano, na mede wɔn aba Yehosafat bɔnhwa mu. Ɛhɔ na mɛbu wɔn atɛn wɔ deɛ wɔyɛɛ mʼagyapadeɛ, a ɛyɛ Israelfoɔ ho, ɛfiri sɛ wɔbɔɔ me nkurɔfoɔ hwetee aman so, na wɔkyekyɛɛ mʼasase mu.
3 and thei settiden a knaue child in the bordel hous, and seelden a damesel for wyn, that thei schulden drynke.
Wɔbɔɔ me nkurɔfoɔ so ntonto, Wɔtɔn mmerantewaa de emu sika bɔɔ adwaman. Wɔtɔn mmaayewa nso de gyee nsã, a wɔbɛnom.
4 But what to me and to you, thou Tire, and Sidon, and ech ende of Palestyns? Whethir ye schulen yelde vengyng to me? and if ye vengen you ayens me, soone swiftli Y schal yelde while to you on youre heed.
“Ɛdeɛn na mowɔ tia me, Ao Tiro ne Sidon ne mo Filistia amantam nyinaa? Mopɛ sɛ motɔ me so awere anaa? Sɛ saa na ɛte deɛ a, monhwɛ yie. Mɛyɛ ntɛm, atua mo biribiara a moayɛ no so ka.
5 Ye token awey my siluer and gold, and ye brouyten my desirable thingis and faireste thingis in to youre templis of idols.
Mofaa me dwetɛ ne me sikakɔkɔɔ ne mʼagyapadeɛ a ɛsom bo, na mosoa kɔguu mo abosonnan mu.
6 And ye selden the sones of Juda, and the sones of Jerusalem to the sones of Grekis, that ye schulden make hem fer fro her coostis.
Motontɔn nnipa a wɔte Yuda ne Yerusalem maa Helafoɔ sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔbɛfiri wɔn asase so akɔ akyirikyiri.
7 Lo! Y schal reise hem fro the place in which ye seelden hem; and Y schal turne youre yeldyng in to youre heed.
“Nanso, mɛsane de wɔn afiri baabi a mokɔtɔn wɔn no aba, na deɛ moayɛ no nyinaa, mɛtua mo so ka.
8 And Y schal sille youre sones and youre douytris in the hondis of the sones of Juda, and thei schulen selle hem to Sabeis, a fer folc, for the Lord spak.
Mɛtontɔn mo mmammarima ne mo mmammaa ama Yudafoɔ, na wɔn nso atɔn wɔn ama Arabfoɔ, ɔman a ɛwɔ akyirikyiri no.” Me, Awurade, na makasa.
9 Crye ye this thing among hethene men, halewe ye batel, reise ye stronge men; alle men werriours, neiy, and stie.
Mo mpae mu nka yei wɔ aman so: Monsiesie mo ho mma ɔko! Monkanyane akodɔm! Momma mo mmarima akofoɔ no ntwe mpini, na wɔn mmɛko.
10 Beete ye togydere youre plowis in to swerdis, and youre mattokkis in to speeris; a sijk man seie, that Y am strong.
Momfa mo mfuntumdadeɛ no mmɔ akofena, na momfa mo nsɔsɔwa mmɔ mpea. Ma deɛ wɔayɛ mmerɛ nka sɛ, “mewɔ ahoɔden!”
11 Alle folkis, breke ye out, and come fro cumpas, and be ye gaderid togidere; there the Lord schal make thi stronge men to die.
Monyɛ ntɛm mmra, mo amanaman a moatwa ahyia, mo mmɛboa mo ho ano wɔ hɔ. Fa wʼakofoɔ bra, Ao Awurade!
12 Folkis rise togidere, and stie in to the valei of Josofat; for Y schal sitte there, to deme alle folkis in cumpas.
“Wɔnkanyane aman no; wɔntu ntene nkɔ Yehosafat bɔnhwa no mu, ɛfiri sɛ ɛhɔ na mɛtena na mabu aman a atwa ahyia no nyinaa atɛn.
13 Sende ye sikelis, `ether sithis, for ripe corn wexide; come ye, and go ye doun, for the pressour is ful; pressouris ben plenteuouse, for the malice of hem is multiplied.
Monhwim kantankrankyi no, ɛfiri sɛ otwa berɛ no aduru so. Mommra, montiatia bobe no so, ɛfiri sɛ nsakyiamena no ayɛ ma na ankorɛ no ayɛ ma abu so. Saa ara na wɔn amumuyɛ dɔɔso!”
14 Puplis, puplis in the valei of kittyng doun; for the dai of the Lord is nyy in the valei of kittyng doun.
Nipadɔm, nipadɔm wɔ gyinasie subɔnhwa no mu! Awurade ɛda no abɛn wɔ gyinasie subɔnhwa no mu.
15 The sunne and the moone ben maad derk, and sterris withdrowen her schynyng.
Owia ne ɔsrane bɛduru sum, na nsoromma renhyerɛn bio.
16 And the Lord schal rore fro Sion, and schal yyue his vois fro Jerusalem, and heuenes and erthe schulen be mouyd; and the Lord is the hope of his puple, and the strengthe of the sones of Israel.
Awurade bɛbobɔ mu afiri Sion, ne nne bɛgyegye afiri Yerusalem, asase ne ɔsoro bɛwoso. Nanso, Awurade bɛyɛ dwanekɔbea ama ne nkurɔfoɔ, ɔbɛyɛ abandenden ama Israelfoɔ.
17 And ye schulen wite, that Y am youre Lord God, dwellynge in Sion, in myn hooli hil; and Jerusalem schal be hooli, and aliens schulen no more passe bi it.
“Afei, wobɛhunu sɛ, me Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, mete Sion, me bepɔ kronkron so. Yerusalem bɛyɛ kronkron; na ananafoɔ rentu wɔn so sa bio.
18 And it schal be, in that dai mounteyns schulen droppe swetnesse, and litle hillis schulen flowe with mylke, and watris schulen go bi alle the ryueris of Juda; and a welle schal go out of the hous of the Lord, and schal moiste the stronde of thornes.
“Saa ɛda no, nsã foforɔ bɛsɔne afiri mmepɔ no mu, na nufosuo atene wɔ nkokoɔ so; Nsuo bɛba Yuda nsuwansuwa mu, na asutire bɛtue afiri Awurade efie, na agugu akasia subɔnhwa no so nsuo.
19 Egipt schal be in to desolacioun, and Idume in to desert of perdicioun; for that that thei diden wickidli ayens the sones of Juda, and schedden out innocent blood in her lond.
Nanso Misraim bɛdane amanfo, na Edom nso bɛyɛ anweatam, ɛsiane awurukasɛm a wɔyɛ de tiaa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda enti. Ɛhɔ na wɔhwiee mogya a ɛnni fɔ guiɛ.
20 And Judee schal be enhabited with outen ende, and Jerusalem in to generacioun and in to generacioun.
Nnipa bɛtena Yuda afebɔɔ na Yerusalem deɛ wɔbɛtena hɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa mu.
21 And Y schal clense the blood of hem, which Y hadde not clensid; and the Lord schal dwelle in Syon.
Na mogya afɔdie a memfa nkyɛeɛ no, mede bɛkyɛ.
