< Ezekiel 25 >

1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
2 'Son of man, set thy face unto the sons of Ammon, and prophesy against them;
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Amonfo so na hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn.
3 and thou hast said to the sons of Ammon: Hear ye a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy saying, Aha, to My sanctuary, Because it hath been polluted, And unto the ground of Israel, Because it hath been desolate, And unto the house of Judah, Because they have gone into a removal:
Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Muntie Otumfo Awurade asɛm. Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ wokaa “Ɛhɛɛ” guu me kronkronbea so bere a woguu ho fi ne Israel asase bere a ɛdaa mpan, ne Yudafo bere a wɔkɔɔ nnommum mu
4 Therefore, lo, I am giving thee to sons of the east for a possession, And they set their towers in thee, And have placed in thee their tabernacles. They eat thy fruit, and they drink thy milk,
nti, mede mo rebɛma nnipa a wofi Apuei fam na wɔde mo ayɛ wɔn de. Wɔbɛkyekye wɔn nsraban, asisi wɔn ntamadan wɔ mo mu; wobedi mo nnuaba na wɔanom mo nufusu.
5 And I have given Rabbah for a habitation of camels, And the sons of Ammon for the crouching of a flock, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
Mɛdan Raba ayɛ no yoma adidibea na Amon ayɛ faako a nguan gye wɔn ahome. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
6 For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy clapping the hand, And of thy stamping with the foot, And thou rejoicest with all thy despite in soul Against the ground of Israel,
Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ moabɔ mo nsam de mo anan apempem hɔ, na mode koma mu bɔne nyinaa adi ahurusi atia Israel asase nti,
7 Therefore, lo, I — I have stretched out My hand against thee, And have given thee for a portion to nations, And I have cut thee off from the peoples, And caused thee to perish from the lands; I destroy thee, and thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.
mɛteɛ me nsa atia mo na moayɛ asade ama amanaman no. Metwa mo afi amanaman no mu na matɔre mo ase wɔ nsase no so. Mɛsɛe mo na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
8 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the saying of Moab and Seir: Lo, as all the nations [is] the house of Judah;
“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Moab ne Seir kae se, “Monhwɛ, Yudafi ayɛ sɛ amanaman a aka no”
9 Therefore, lo, I am opening the shoulder of Moab — From the cities — from his cities — from his frontier, The beauty of the land, Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim,
nti, mebue Moab nkyɛn mu, afi nkurow a ɛdeda nʼahye so, Bet-Yesimot, Baal-Meon ne Kiriataim, a ɛyɛ asase no anuonyam.
10 To the sons of the east, with the sons of Ammon, And I have given it for a possession, So that the sons of Ammon are not remembered among nations.
Na mede Moab bɛka Amonfo ho ama nnipa a wɔwɔ Apuei fam de ayɛ wɔn de, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔrenkae Amonfo wɔ amanaman no mu;
11 And in Moab I do judgments, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.
na mɛtwe Moab aso. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
12 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the doings of Edom, In taking vengeance on the house of Judah, Yea, they are very guilty, And they have taken vengeance on them.
“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ Edom tɔɔ were wɔ Yudafi so na ɔnam so dii fɔ no nti,
13 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have stretched out My hand against Edom, And I have cut off from it man and beast, And given it up — a waste, from Teman even to Dedan, By sword they do fall.
nea Otumfo Awurade se ni: ‘Mɛteɛ me nsa atia Edom na makum ne mmarima ne ne mmoa, mɛma asase a ɛda Teman kosi Dedan ada mpan, na wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano.
14 And I have given My vengeance on Edom, By the hand of My people Israel, And they have done in Edom, According to My anger, and according to My fury, And they have known My vengeance, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Me nkurɔfo Israelfo bɛyɛ nsa a mɛfa so atɔ Edom so were na wɔne no bedi no sɛnea mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew te; wobehu mʼaweretɔ, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
15 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the doings of the Philistines in vengeance, And they take vengeance with despite in soul, To destroy — the enmity age-during!
“Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Filistifo tɔɔ were, na wɔde koma mu nsusuw bɔne na ɛyɛɛ saa, na wɔde ɔtan a efi tete sɛee Yuda nti,
16 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am stretching out My hand against the Philistines, And I have cut off the Cherethim, And destroyed the remnant of the haven of the sea,
sɛnea Otumfo Awurade se ni: Merebɛteɛ me nsa atia Filistifo, na matwa Keretifo no agu na masɛe wɔn a wɔaka wɔ mpoano hɔ no.
17 And done upon them great vengeance with furious reproofs, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving out My vengeance on them!
Mɛtɔ wɔn so were a ɛso na matwe wɔn aso wɔ mʼabufuwhyew mu. Na sɛ metɔ wɔn so were a, wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
