2 Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ta eƒe kɔkɔenyenye, be ɣeyiɣi li gbɔna esime yeaɖe mi kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo kple ƒu.
The Lord God swoor in his hooli, for lo! daies schulen come on you; and thei schulen reise you in schaftis, and youre remenauntis in buylynge pottis.
3 Woakplɔ mi ato gliwo ƒe gbagbãƒee, miakpɔ ŋgɔ tẽe, eye woatsɔ mi aƒu gbe ɖo ɖe Harmon.” Yehowae gblɔe.
And ye schulen go out bi the openyngis, oon ayens another, and ye schulen be cast forth in to Armon, seith the Lord.

Come ye to Bethel, and do ye wickidli; to Galgala, and multiplie ye trespassyng; and offre ye eerli youre sacrifices, in thre daies youre tithis.
5 Mitsɔ amɔʋaʋãbolo wɔ akpedavɔsae. Miɖe gbeƒã lɔlɔ̃nununana. Migblɔe dadatɔe, elabena nenema mielɔ̃a wɔwɔ. O, Israel!” Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ lae gblɔe.
And sacrifice ye heriyng of breed maad sour, and clepe ye wilful offryngis, and telle ye; for ye, sones of Israel, wolden so, seith the Lord God.
6 “Medɔ dɔwuame ɖe miaƒe duwo me, gake mewɔ naneke le mia ŋuti o, eye miegbe be yewomatrɔ ɖe ŋutinye o.” Yehowae gblɔe.

Also Y forbeed reyn fro you, whanne thre monethis weren yit `to comyng, til to ripe corn; and Y reynede on o citee, and on another citee Y reynede not; o part was bireyned, and the part driede vp on which Y reynede not.
8 Amewo tsoa du siwo me ku le ɖiɖim le, eye wozɔa mɔ didi yia tsidiƒe le du bubu me afi si tsi le dzadzam le, gake womekpɔnɛ kuna o. Ele alea, gake miegbe be yewomatrɔ ɖe ŋutinye o.” Yehowae gblɔe.
And tweyne and thre citees camen to o citee, to drynke watir, and tho weren not fillid; and ye camen not ayen to me, seith the Lord.
9 “Mena miaƒe bliwo dze heteku, eye wohlɔ̃; mena ʋetsuviwo ɖu miaƒe wainkawo kple amitiwo, gake miegbe be yewomatrɔ ɖe ŋutinye o.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Y smoot you with brennynge wynd, and with rust, the multitude of youre orcherdis, and of youre vyneris; and a wort worm eet youre olyue places, and youre fige places; and ye camen not ayen to me, seith the Lord.
10 “Mena dɔvɔ̃wo va dze mia dzi abe esiwo mehe va Egiptetɔwo dzi le blema ene. Mena mia viwo tsi aʋa, eye menya miaƒe sɔwo de gbe. Ame kukuwo na miaƒe asaɖa me le ʋeʋẽm kũu, gake miegbe, mietrɔ ɖe ŋutinye o.” Yehowae gblɔe.

11 “Metsrɔ̃ miaƒe du aɖewo abe ale si metsrɔ̃ Sodom kple Gomorae ene; ame siwo susɔ la le abe atikpo si woɖe tso dzo me la ene, gake miegbe, mietrɔ ɖe ŋutinye o.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Y distriede you, as God distriede Sodom and Gomorre, and ye ben maad as a brond rauyschid of brennyng; and ye turneden not ayen to me, seith the Lord.
12 “Eya ta ale mawɔ na wò, O Israel! Esi wònye aleae mawɔ na wò ta la, dzra ɖo nàdo go wò Mawu, O Israel!”
Wherfor, thou Israel, Y schal do these thingis to thee; but aftir that Y schal do to thee these thingis, Israel, be maad redi in to ayen comyng of thi God.
13 Ame si wɔ towo kple ya, eye wòɖea eƒe susuwo fiaa amegbetɔ, eyae trɔa ŋdi wòzua viviti, eye wògbãa towo ɖe eƒe afɔ te gudugudu. Eŋkɔe nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Mawu la.
For lo! he fourmeth hillis, and makith wynd, and tellith to man his speche; and he makith a `morew myist, and goith on hiy thingis of erthe; the Lord God of oostis is the name of hym.
