Yesaya 19
1 Esiae nye nyagblɔɖi ɖe Egipte ŋu. Kpɔ ɖa, Yehowa ɖi tso dziƒo gbɔna va Egipte kple du le lilikpowo dzi. Egipte legbawo dzo nyanyanya le eŋkume, eye vɔvɔ̃ na be, Egiptetɔwo ƒe dzi lolo ɖe dɔ me na wo.
THE VISION OF EGYPT. Behold, the Lord sits on a swift cloud, and shall come to Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and their heart shall faint within them.
2 “Mana be Egiptetɔwo nawɔ avu kple wo nɔewo, nɔvi kple nɔvi nawɔ avu, zɔhɛ natso ɖe zɔhɛ ŋu, du natso ɖe du ŋu, eye fiaɖuƒe natso ɖe fiaɖuƒe ŋuti.
And the Egyptians shall be stirred up against the Egyptians: and a man shall fight against his brother, and a man against his neighbor, city against city, and law against law.
3 Dzi aɖe le Egiptetɔwo ƒo, eye matɔtɔ woƒe ɖoɖowo. Woayi aɖabia nu le legbawo, ŋɔligbɔgbɔwo, ŋɔliyɔlawo kple afakalawo gbɔ.
And the spirit of the Egyptians shall be troubled within them; and I will frustrate their counsel: and they shall enquire of their gods and their images, and them that speak out of the earth, and them that have in them a divining spirit.
4 Matsɔ Egiptetɔwo ade ŋutasẽla aɖe ƒe ŋusẽ te, eye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe aɖu wo dzi.” Aƒetɔ, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
And I will deliver Egypt into the hands of men, of cruel lords; and cruel kings shall rule over them: thus says the Lord of hosts.
5 Nil tɔsisi la amie, eye eme aƒu kplakplakpla.
And the Egyptians shall drink the water that is by the sea, but the river shall fail, and be dried up.
6 Tɔʋumetsiwo aƒaƒã, anɔ ʋeʋẽm. Egipte tɔʋuwo hã amie, eye wo me aƒu. Aƒla kple aɖa siwo le tɔsisi la me la ayrɔ.
And the streams shall fail, and the canals of the river; and every reservoir of water shall be dried up, in every marsh also of reed and papyrus.
7 Nenema ke gbe siwo mie ɖe Nil tɔsisi la to kple esiwo mie ɖe tɔsisi la kple ƒu la ƒe godoƒe la hã ayrɔ. Nuku siwo le bo dzi le Nil tɔsisi la to la afia, eye ya aƒo wo adzoe.
And all the green herbage round about the river, and everything sown by the side of the river, shall be blasted with the wind and dried up.
8 Tɔƒodelawo kple ame siwo doa ƒu ɖe tɔsisi la me la aɖe hũu, afa konyi, eye nenema ke ame siwo daa asabu ɖe tɔa me la hã axa nu.
And the fishermen shall groan, and all that cast a hook into the river shall groan; they also that cast nets, and the anglers shall mourn.
9 Ɖetitrelawo abu mɔkpɔkpɔ, nenema kee nye aklalavɔ biɖibiɖiwo lɔ̃lawo hã.
And shame shall come upon them that work fine flax, and them that make fine linen.
10 Ketelɔlawo ƒe mo atsi daa eye agbatedɔwɔlawo katã ƒe dzi axa nu.
And they that work at them shall be in pain, and all that make beer shall be grieved, and be pained in their souls.
11 Zoan ƒe dumegãwo azu bometsilawo. Farao ƒe aɖaŋuɖola nyanuwo ɖo aɖaŋu manyatalenuwo. Aleke nàte ŋu agblɔ na Farao be, “Menye nunyalawo dometɔ ɖeka, menye blemafiawo ƒe nusrɔ̃la?”
And the princes of Tanis shall be fools: [as for] the king's wise counselors, their counsel shall be turned into folly: how will you say to the king, we are sons of wise men, sons of ancient kings?
12 Afi ka miaƒe nunyalawo le azɔ. Wonegblɔ nu siwo Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ɖo ɖe Egipte ŋu la na mí.
Where are now your wise men? and let them declare to you, and say, What has the Lord of hosts purposed upon Egypt?
13 Zoan ƒe dumegãwo zu bometsilawo. Woble Memfis ƒe dukplɔlawo, eye ame siwo nye eƒe dzogoedzikpewo la kplɔ Egipte trae.
The princes of Tanis have failed, and the princes of Memphis are lifted up [with pride], and they shall cause Egypt to wander by tribes.
14 Yehowa tsɔ ŋuzitsɔame ƒe gbɔgbɔ de wo me. Ale wòna Egipte mu sɔgɔsɔgɔ le nu siwo katã wòwɔna la me abe ale si ahanomunɔtɔ mlina le xe si eya ŋutɔ ɖe la me ene.
For the Lord has prepared for them a spirit of error, and they have caused Egypt to err in all their works, as one staggers who is drunken and vomits also.
15 Naneke meli Egipte nawɔ o, ta alo asike, deʋaya alo keti mate ŋu awɔ naneke na Egipte o.
And there shall be no work to the Egyptians, which shall make head or tail, or beginning or end.
16 Ɣe ma ɣi la, Egiptetɔwo azu abe nyɔnuwo ene. Ŋɔ adzi wo woadzo nyanyanya le Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe asi si wòkɔ dzi ɖe wo ŋuti la ta.
But in that day the Egyptians shall be as women, in fear and in trembling because of the hand of the Lord of hosts, which he shall bring upon them.
17 Ne woyɔ Yuda ŋkɔ teti hã la, ŋɔ adzi Egiptetɔwo, eye woƒe dzi age ɖe dɔ me na wo ɖe gbegblẽ si Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, wɔ ɖe wo ŋu la ta.
And the land of the Jews shall be for a terror to the Egyptians: whoever shall name it to them, they shall fear, because of the counsel which the Lord of hosts has purposed concerning it.
18 Le ɣe ma ɣi la, du gã atɔ̃ le Egiptenyigba dzi atrɔ adze Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la yome, eye woasrɔ̃ Hebrigbe agblɔ. Woayɔ du siawo dometɔ ɖeka be Heliopolis, Ɣekeklẽdu.
In that day there shall be five cities in Egypt speaking the language of Chanaan, and swearing by the name of the Lord of hosts; one city shall be called the city of Asedec.
19 Le ŋkeke mawo me la, woaɖi vɔsamlekpui gã aɖe ɖe Egiptenyigba la titina na Yehowa, eye woaɖi ŋkuɖodzikpe ɖe woƒe liƒo dzi na Yehowa.
In that day there shall be an altar to the Lord in the land of the Egyptians, and a pillar to the Lord by its border.
20 Esiae nye dzesi kple ŋkuɖodzi na Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, le Egiptenyigba dzi. Ne wodo ɣli na Yehowa le woƒe futɔwo ta la, aɖo ɖela kple ametaʋlila ɖe wo be wòaɖe wo le woƒe futɔwo ƒe asi me.
And it shall be for a sign to the Lord for ever in the land of Egypt: for they shall presently cry to the Lord by reason of them that afflict them, and he shall send them a man who shall save them; he shall judge and save them.
21 Le ŋkeke ma me la, Yehowa aɖe eɖokui afia Egiptetɔwo, woadze si Yehowa, eye woatsɔ woƒe vɔsawo kple nunanawo asubɔe. Woaɖe adzɔgbe na Yehowa, eye woawɔ edzi.
And the Lord shall be known to the Egyptians, and the Egyptians shall know the Lord in that day; and they shall offer sacrifices, and shall vow vows to the Lord, and pay [them].
22 Yehowa akplɔ dɔvɔ̃ aƒu Egiptetɔwo; aƒo wo, eye wòagayɔ dɔ wo. Woatrɔ ɖe Yehowa ŋu, eye wòase woƒe kukuɖeɖe ahayɔ dɔ wo.
And the Lord shall strike the Egyptians with a stroke, and shall completely heal them: and they shall return to the Lord, and he shall hear them, and thoroughly heal them.
23 Le ŋkeke ma me la, woado mɔ gã aɖe ɖe Egipte kple Asiria dome, Asiriatɔwo azɔ edzi ayi Egipte, Egiptetɔwo hã azɔ edzi ayi Asiria, eye wo kple eve la woasubɔ ɖekae.
In that day there shall be a way from Egypt to the Assyrians, and the Assyrians shall enter into Egypt, and the Egyptians shall go to the Assyrians, and the Egyptians shall serve the Assyrians.
24 Ɣe ma ɣi la, Israel, nye etɔ̃lia akpe ɖe Egipte kple Asiria ŋu, esiae nye yayra le anyigba dzi.
In that day shall Israel be third with the Egyptians and the Assyrians, blessed in the land which the Lord of hosts has blessed,
25 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ayra wo agblɔ be, “Woayra wò, Egipte, nye dukɔ, Asiria, nye asinudɔwɔwɔ kple wò, Israel, nye domenyinu.”
saying, Blessed be my people that is in Egypt, and that is among the Assyrians, and Israel mine inheritance.
