Yesaya 28
1 Baba na seƒoƒofiakuku ma si nye dada na Efraim ƒe ahanomunɔtɔwo. Baba na seƒoƒo yɔyrɔ la ƒe gãnyenye si wotsɔ ɖo atsyɔ̃ na balime si nyoa nuku. Baba na du ma si nye dada na ame siwo wain flu tagbɔ na!
Wo to the coroun of pride, to the drunkun men of Effraym, and to the flour fallynge doun of the glorie of the ful out ioiyng therof, that weren in the cop of the fatteste valei, and erriden of wyn.
2 Kpɔ ɖa, ame si sesẽ, nye kalẽtɔ la le Aƒetɔ la si. Ava abe tsikpe ƒe dzadza kple ya si gblẽa nu la ene. Ava abe kelemetsi kple tsiɖɔɖɔ ene, be wòatsɔe aƒu gbe ɖe anyigba ŋusẽtɔe.
Lo! the myyti and strong Lord, as the feersnesse of hail, a whirlwynd brekynge togidere, as the fersnesse of many watris flowynge, and sent out on a large lond.
3 Seƒoƒotsihe ma si nye Efraim ƒe ahanomunɔtɔwo ƒe dada la, woafanyae ɖe afɔ te.
The coroun of pride of the drunken men of Effraym schal be defoulid with feet,
4 Seƒoƒo yɔyrɔ ma si nye eƒe gãnyenye ƒe atsyɔ̃ si wòɖɔ na balime nyonuku la anɔ abe gbotsetse si ɖi do ŋgɔ na mamlɛawo la ene; esi ame aɖe kpɔe la, egbee kaba heɖu.
and the flour of glorie of the ful out ioiyng of hym, that is on the cop of valei of fat thingis, schal be fallyng doun, as a tymeli thing bifore the ripenesse of heruest; which whanne a man seynge biholdith, anoon as he takith with hond, he schal deuoure it.
5 Gbe ma gbe la, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, anye gãnyenye ƒe fiakuku kple seƒoƒotsihe si dzeani na eƒe ame mamlɛawo.
In that dai the Lord of oostis schal be a coroun of glorie, and a garlond of ful out ioiyng, to the residue of his puple;
6 Anye afia nyui tsotso ƒe gbɔgbɔ anɔ ame si le ʋɔnu drɔ̃m la me. Anye ŋusẽ na agbonudzɔlawo le aʋaŋɔli.
and a spirit of doom to hym that sittith on the trone, and strengthe to hem that turnen ayen fro batel to the yate.
7 Wain na ame siwo hã le mumum sɔgɔsɔgɔ, eye aha sesẽ na ame siwo le ya mum. Aha sesẽ na nunɔlawo kple nyagblɔɖilawo siwo le zɔzɔm sɔgɔsɔgɔ eye wain na wole movinu wɔm. Aha sesẽ na ame siwo le ya mum. Vodada le woƒe ŋutegakpɔkpɔ me, eye kpɔtsɔtsɔ le woƒe nyametsotso ŋu.
But also thei knewen not for wyn, and erriden for drunkenesse; the preest and profete knewen not for drunkenesse; thei weren sopun up of wyn, thei erriden in drunkenesse; thei knewen not a profete, thei knewen not doom.
8 Woɖe xe ɖe kplɔ̃wo katã dzi kpe ɖo, eye teƒe aɖeke meli si womeɖe xe ɖo o.
For whi alle bordis weren fillid with spuyng and filthis, so that ther was no more place.
9 “Ame ka wòle didim be yeafia nue? Ame ka wòle eƒe gbedeasi la me ɖem na? Ɖevi siwo si woxɔ no le la loo alo vidzĩ siwo woɖe le no nua?
Whom schal he teche kunnyng, and whom schal he make to vndurstonde heryng? Men wenyd fro mylk, men drawun awei fro tetis.
10 Ele ale; se ɖe se dzi, se ɖe se dzi. Ɖoɖo ɖe ɖoɖo dzi, ɖoɖo ɖe ɖoɖo dzi; afii ʋɛe, afi mɛ hã ʋɛe.”
For whi comaunde thou, comaunde thou ayen; comaunde thou, comaunde thou ayen; abide thou, abide thou ayen; abide thou, abide thou ayen; a litil there, a litil there.
11 Ɖe sia ɖe nyo, Mawu aƒo nu kple dukɔ sia to nuyi kple aɖe tutɔwo dzi,
For whi in speche of lippe, and in other langage he schal speke to this puple,
12 ame si Mawu gblɔ na be, “Teƒe siae nye dzudzɔƒe eya ta na ame siwo ŋu ɖeɖi te la nadzudzɔ,” eye “Teƒe siae nye gbɔɖemeƒe”, gake womeɖo toe o.
to which he seide, This is my reste; refreische ye a weri man, and this is my refreischyng; and thei nolden here.
13 Eya ta Yehowa ƒe nya na woe nye be se ɖe se dzi, se ɖe se dzi. Ɖoɖo ɖe ɖoɖo dzi, ɖoɖo ɖe ɖoɖo dzi, ale be woayi, eye woagbugbɔ ɖe megbe, adze anyi. Mixɔ abi, kamɔ neɖe mi, eye wonelé mi,
And the word of the Lord schal be to hem, Sende thou, sende thou ayen; send thou, sende thou ayen; abide thou, abide thou ayen; abide thou, abide thou ayen; a litil there, a litil there; that thei go, and falle backward, and be al to-brokun, and be snarid, and be takun.
14 eya ta mise Yehowa ƒe nya, mi fewuɖula siwo le ame siawo dzi ɖum le Yerusalem.
For this thing, ye men scorneris, that ben lordis ouer my puple which is in Jerusalem, here the word of the Lord.
15 Miegblɔna dadatɔe be, “Míeɖo nubabla me kple ku, eye míeɖo gbe ɖi kple yɔdo. Nenye be dɔvɔ̃ zɔ va yi la, maka asi mía ŋu o, elabena míetsɔ alakpa wɔ míaƒe sitsoƒee, eye míetsɔ beble wɔ míaƒe bebeƒee.” (Sheol h7585)
For ye seiden, We han smyte a boond of pees with deth, and we han maad couenaunt with helle; a scourge flowynge whanne it schal passe, schal not come on vs, for we han set a leesyng oure hope, and we ben kyuered with a leesyng. (Sheol h7585)
16 Ke ale Aƒetɔ Mawu gblɔe nye esi, “Kpɔ ɖa, mele gɔmeɖokpe aɖe ɖom ɖe Zion, kpe si wodo kpɔ. Dzogoedzikpe xɔasi si nye gɔmeɖokpe si maʋã o. Ame si ɖo ŋu ɖe eŋu la mavɔ̃ o.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal sende in the foundementis of Sion a corner stoon preciouse, preuyd, foundid in the foundement; he that bileueth, schal not haaste.
17 Matsɔ afia nyui tsotso awɔ eƒe dzidzekae, eye dzɔdzɔenyenye anye eƒe nudanu, tsikpe akplɔ miaƒe sitsoƒe si nye alakpa la adzoe, eye tsi aɖɔ axɔ miaƒe bebeƒe.
And Y schal sette doom in weiyte, and riytfulnesse in mesure; and hail schal distrie the hope of leesyng, and watris schulen flowe on proteccioun. And youre boond of pees with deth schal be don awei,
18 Woate fli ɖe nu si miebla kple ku la me, eye gbe si mieɖo ɖi kple yɔdo la madze edzi o. Ne dɔvɔ̃ zɔ va yi la, adze mi katã dzi, eye miaɖo baba. (Sheol h7585)
and youre couenaunt with helle schal not stonde; whanne the scourge flowynge schal passe, ye schulen be to it in to defoulyng. (Sheol h7585)
19 Zi ale si nu wòva la, zi nenema ke wòakplɔ mi adzoe. Tso ŋdi yi ŋdi, le ŋkeke me kple zã me, ava ato mia dzi ayi.” Gbedeasi sia gɔmesese ɖeɖe ahe ŋɔdzi vɛ.
Whanne euer it schal passe, it schal take awei yow; for whi erli in the grey morewtid it schal passe, in dai and niyt; and oonli trauel aloone schal yyue vndurstondyng to heryng.
20 Aba la le kpuie akpã, màte ŋu adra ɖe edzi o. Abadzivɔ la mekeke woaxatsa ame ɖokui ɖe eme o.
Forsothe the bed is streit, so that the tother falle doun; and a schort mentil schal not hile euer either.
21 Yehowa atso abe ale si wòwɔ le Perazim toa dzi ene. Aʋuʋu eɖokui abe ale si wòwɔ le Gibeon Balime la ene be wòawɔ eƒe dɔ wɔnuku la, eye wòawɔ eƒe dɔdeasi si mienya o.
For as in the hil of departyngis the Lord schal stonde, as in the valei, which is in Gabaon, he schal be wroth, that he do his werk; his werk alien, that he worche his werk; his werk is straunge fro hym.
22 Azɔ midzudzɔ miaƒe fewuɖuɖu ne menye nenem o la, miaƒe bablawo agamia mi ɖe edzi. Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, gblɔ gbegblẽ si wòɖo ɖi kplikpaa ɖe anyigba blibo la ŋu nam.
And now nyle ye scorne, lest perauenture youre boondis be maad streit togidere; for Y herde of the Lord God of oostis, endyng and abreggyng on al erthe.
23 Mise nu si gblɔm mele na mi, eye miɖo to nya si tom mele na mi.
Perseyue ye with eeris, and here ye my vois; perseyue ye, and here ye my speche.
24 Ne agbledela ŋlɔ nu be yeaƒã nu la, ɖe wòganɔa nuŋɔŋlɔ dzia? Ɖe wògadzoboa anyigba, ganɔa edzadzraɖo dzia?
Whether he that erith, schal ere al dai, for to sowe, and schal be kerue, and purge his londe?
25 Ne edzra anyigba ɖo vɔ la, ɖe meƒãa sikɔni kple adrike, lu kple ƒo ɖe agbakawo me, eye woƒãa bli ɖe agbleliƒowo dzi oa?
Whether whanne he hath maad euene the face therof, schal he not sowe gith, and sprenge abrood comyn? and he schal not sette wheete bi ordre, and barli, and mylium, and fetchis in his coostis?
26 Eƒe Mawu fiaa nue, eye wògblɔa nu nyuitɔ si wòawɔ la nɛ.
And his God schal teche hym, in doom he schal teche hym.
27 Wometsɔa luƒomɔ ƒoa sikɔnie alo tsɔa keke zɔa adrike dzi hafi woklẽna o, ke boŋ wotsɔa kpo ƒoa sikɔnie, eye wotsɔa ati ƒoa adrikee.
Forsothe gith schal not be threischid in sawis, and a wheel of a wayn schal not cumpasse on comyn; but gith schal be betun out with a yerd, and comyn with a staf.
28 Wotua bli hafi tsɔna ƒoa aboloe, eya ta ame aɖeke manɔ bli nyɔnyɔ dzi ɖaa o. Togbɔ be wotsɔa keke ƒe afɔtiwo nyɔa blie hã la, menye sɔ siwo woti ɖe kekea ŋuti la ƒe afɔwoe tua blia o.
Sotheli breed schal be maad lesse, but he that threischith schal not threische it with outen ende, nether schal trauele it with a wheel of a wayn, nether schal make it lesse with hise clees.
29 Esiawo katã tso Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gbɔ; ame si ƒe aɖaŋudede wɔ nuku, eye eƒe nya me goglo.
And this thing yede out of the Lord God of oostis, that he schulde make wondirful councel, and magnefie riytfulnesse.
