Ezekiel 35
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
2 'Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Bepɔ Seir; hyɛ nkɔm tia no
3 and thou hast said to it: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O mount Seir, And have stretched out My hand against thee, And made thee a desolation and an astonishment.
na ka sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Me ne wo anya, Bepɔ Seir, na mɛtene me basa atia wo, na mɛma woada mpan.
4 Thy cities a waste I make, and thou art a desolation, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.
Mɛdane wo nkuro ama ayɛ mmubuiɛ na wobɛda mpan. Afei wobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
5 Because of thy having an enmity age-during, And thou dost saw the sons of Israel, By the hands of the sword, In the time of their calamity, In the time of the iniquity of the end:
“‘Esiane sɛ wode tete nitan hyɛɛ wo mu na woyii Israelfoɔ maa akofena wɔ wɔn amanehunu mu, ɛberɛ a wɔn asotwe duruu ne mpɔnpɔnsoɔ no
6 Therefore, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Surely for blood I do appoint thee, And blood doth pursue thee, If blood thou hast not hated, Blood also doth pursue thee.
enti, sɛ mete ase yi deɛ, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie, mede wo bɛma mogyahwieguo na ɛbɛdi wʼakyi. Esiane sɛ woansuro mogyahwieguo no enti, mogyahwiegu bɛtaa wo.
7 And I have given mount Seir for a desolation and an astonishment, And have cut off from it him who is passing over and him who is returning,
Mɛma bepɔ Seir ada mpan, na mayi wɔn a wɔdi so akɔneaba no afiri hɔ.
8 And filled his mountains with his wounded, Thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy streams, The pierced of the sword fall into them.
Mede atɔfoɔ bɛhyɛ wo mmepɔ so ma; wɔn a wɔbɛtotɔ akofena ano bɛhwehwe ase wɔ wo nkokoɔ so, mmɔnhwa mu ne wo subɔnhwa mu.
9 Desolations age-during I make thee, And thy cities do not return, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
Mɛma wada mpan afebɔɔ, na obiara rentena wo nkuro so. Afei, wobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
10 Because of thy saying: The two nations and the two lands are mine, and we have possessed it, And Jehovah hath been there;
“‘Woaka sɛ, “Saa aman mmienu ne nsase yi bɛyɛ yɛn dea na yɛbɛfa,” wɔ ɛberɛ a me Awurade mete hɔ,
11 Therefore, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I have done according to thine anger, And according to thine envy, With which thou hast wrought, Because of thy hatred against them, And I have been known among them when I judge thee.
enti, sɛ mete ase yi, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie, me ne wo bɛdi no sɛdeɛ abufuo ne ninkunu a wodaa no adi wɔ ɔtan a wotanee wɔn no mu no teɛ, na mɛda me ho adi wɔ wɔn mu, ɛberɛ a mɛbu wo atɛn.
12 And thou hast known that I — Jehovah, I have heard all thy despisings that thou hast spoken Against mountains of Israel, saying: A desolation, to us they were given for food.
Afei, wobɛhunu sɛ me Awurade, mate animtiabuo nsɛm a woaka atia Israel mmepɔ. Wokaa sɛ, “Wɔama ada mpan na wɔadane ama yɛn sɛ yɛmfa.”
13 And ye magnify yourselves against Me with your mouth, And have made abundant against Me your words, I — I have heard.
Mohoahoaa mo ho tiaa me na mokasa tiaa me a moanto sɛbe, na meteeɛ.
14 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: According to the rejoicing of the whole land, A desolation I make of thee.
Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛberɛ a ewiase nyinaa redi ahurisie no, mɛma woada mpan.
15 According to thy joy at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of desolation, So I do to thee — a desolation thou art, O mount Seir, and all Edom — all of it, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!
Sɛdeɛ wodii ahurisie ɛberɛ a Israel efie agyapadeɛ daa mpan no, saa ɛkwan no na mede wo bɛfa so. Wobɛda mpan, Bepɔ Seir, wo ne Edom nyinaa. Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
