Yesaya 8
1 Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Tsɔ nuŋlɔkpe gã aɖe, eye nàŋlɔ ɖe edzi bena aboyonu, afɔnetsɔ, nuhaha, va kaba.
And the Lord seide to me, Take to thee a greet book, and write ther ynne with the poyntil of man, Swiftli drawe thou awei spuylis, take thou prey soone.
2 Mayɔ nunɔla Uria kple Zekaria, Yeberekia ƒe vi be woanye ɖasefo wɔnuteƒewo nam.”
And Y yaf to me faithful witnessis, Vrie, the prest, and Sacarie, the sone of Barachie.
3 Ale mete ɖe nyɔnu nyagblɔɖila ŋu, eye wòfɔ fu hedzi ŋutsuvi. Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Mana ŋkɔe be Aboyonu, Afɔnetsɔ, Nuhaha, Va Kaba.
And Y neiyede to the profetesse; and sche conseyuede, and childide a sone. And the Lord seide to me, Clepe thou his name Haste thou to drawe awei spuylis, haaste thou for to take prey.
4 Hafi ɖevi la nate ŋu ayɔ ‘papa’ kple ‘dada’ la, Asiria fia aho aʋa ava dze Damasko kple Samaria dzi, eye wòalɔ woƒe kesinɔnuwo adzoe.”
For whi bifor that the child kan clepe his fadir and his modir, the strengthe of Damask schal be doon awei, and the spuylis of Samarie, bifor the kyng of Assiriens.
5 Yehowa gagblɔ nam be,
And the Lord addide to speke yit to me, and he seide,
6 “Esi wònye be ame siawo gbe nu le Siloa tsi si tsana blewu la gbɔ, eye wokpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe Rezin kple Remalia ƒe vi ŋu la,
For that thing that this puple hath caste awei the watris of Siloe, that goen with silence, and hath take more Rasyn, and the sone of Romelie, for this thing lo!
7 eya ta Aƒetɔ la ana tɔsisi la ƒe tsi nyanyra sẽŋuwo ava kɔ ɖe wo dzi. Tɔɖɔɖɔ la anye Asiria fia le eƒe ŋɔdzi katã me. Tɔ la aɖɔ agbagba, eye wòage ɖe tɔʋuwo katã me;
the Lord schal brynge on hem the stronge and many watris of the flood, the king of Assiriens, and al his glorie; and he schal stiye on alle the stremes therof, and he schal flowe on alle the ryueris therof.
8 asi ato Yuda, atsyɔ edzi agbagba, eye wòaɖɔ́ va se ɖe eƒe ve ke. Eƒe aʋala akeke atsyɔ miaƒe anyigba ƒe kekeme, O! Mawu li kpli mi!”
And he schal go flowynge bi Juda, and he schal passe til to the necke, and schal come; and the spredyng forth of hise wyngis schal be, and schal fille the breede of thi lond, thou Emanuel.
9 Mi dukɔwo mido aʋaɣli, eye dzi naɖe le mia ƒo. Miƒu to anyi, mi ame siwo le didiƒenyigbawo dzi. Mibla akpa na aʋawɔwɔ, ke dzi neɖe le mia ƒo; mibla ali dzi, ke dzi neɖe le mia ƒo.
Puplis, be ye gaderid togidere, and be ye ouercomun; and alle londis afer, here ye. Be ye coumfortid, and be ye ouercomun; gird ye you, and be ye ouercomun;
10 Mide aɖaŋu na aʋawɔwɔ, gake woagblẽ miaƒe aɖaŋudede, miwɔ ɖoɖowo, gake womadze edzi o, elabena Mawu li kpli mi.
take ye councel, and it schal be destried; speke ye a word, and it schal not be doon, for God is with vs.
11 Ale Yehowa ƒo nu kplim kple kakaɖedzi hede se nam be, magadze ame siawo yome o.
For whi the Lord seith these thingis to me, as he tauyte me in a stronge hond, that Y schulde not go in to the weie of this puple,
12 Mègaxɔ nugbeɖoɖo si ame siawo le wɔwɔm la o, mègavɔ̃ nu siwo vɔ̃m wole la o, eye womegado ŋɔdzi na wò o.
and seide, Seie ye not, It is sweryng togidere, for whi alle thingis which this puple spekith is sweryng togidere; and drede ye not the ferdfulnesse therof, nether be ye aferd.
13 Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la koe nye ame si miabu kɔkɔe. Eyae nye ame si ado ŋɔdzi na mi,
Halowe ye the Lord hym silf of oostis; and he schal be youre inward drede, and he schal be youre ferdfulnesse, and he schal be to you in to halewyng.
14 eye wòazu kɔkɔeƒe, gake anye agakpe kikli na Yuda kple Israel ƒe aƒe, esi woakli adze anyi. Gake anye xevimɔ kple adoboli na Yerusalemtɔwo.
Forsothe he schal be in to a stoon of hirtyng, and in to a stoon of sclaundre, to tweyne housis of Israel; in to a snare, and in to fallyng, to hem that dwellen in Jerusalem.
15 Ame geɖewo aklii, adze anyi, eye woaŋe keŋkeŋ. Woatre mɔ alé wo.
And ful many of hem schulen offende, and schulen falle, and thei schulen be al to-brokun, and thei schulen be boundun, and schulen be takun.
16 Bla ɖaseɖiɖi la, eye nàtre nye nufiafia nu le nye nusrɔ̃lawo dome.
Bynde thou witnessyng, mark thou the lawe in my disciplis.
17 Makpɔ mɔ na Yehowa ame si le eƒe mo ɣlam ɖe Yakob ƒe aƒe la; maɖo dzi ɖe eŋu.
Y schal abide the Lord, that hath hid his face fro the hous of Jacob, and Y schal abide hym.
18 Kpɔ ɖa, nye kple vinye siwo Yehowa nam lae nye esi. Mienye dzesi kple kpɔɖeŋu le Israel tso Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ame si le Zion to la dzi la gbɔ.
Lo! Y and my children, whiche the Lord yaf to me in to a signe, and greet wondur to Israel, of the Lord of oostis that dwellith in the hil of Sion.
19 Ne amewo gblɔ na mi be, miyi miabia nu le ŋɔliyɔlawo kple afakalawo, ame siwo doa dalĩ kple ŋɔtimegbe gbɔ la, ɖe mele be amewo nabia nu woƒe Mawu boŋ oa? Ɖe woabia nu ame kukuwo na ame gbagbewoa?
And whanne thei seien to you, Axe ye of coniureris, and of false dyuynouris, that gnasten in her enchauntyngis, whether the puple schal not axe of her God a reuelacioun for quyke men and deed?
20 Mitrɔ ɖe nye nufiafia kple ɖaseɖiɖiwo ŋu. Ne nu siwo wogblɔ mesɔ kple nye nyawo o la, ekema kekeli alo nyateƒe aɖeke mele wo tɔwo me o.
It is to go to the lawe more and to the witnessyng, that if thei seien not after this word, morewtide liyt schal not be to hem.
21 Woate wo ɖe anyi, eye dɔ awu wo. Woatsa tsaglãla le anyigba blibo la dzi, eye le dɔwuame ƒe sesẽ ta la woado dziku, aƒo fi ade woƒe fia kple woƒe Mawu.
And it schal passe bi that, and it schal falle doun, and it schal hungre. And whanne it schal hungre, it schal be wrooth, and schal curse his kyng and his God, and it schal biholde vpward.
22 Ekema woade wo to, ke nu si ko woakpɔe nye vevesese kple viviti kple blukɔ dziŋɔ, eye woatsɔ wo aƒu gbe ɖe viviti tsiɖitsiɖi me.
And it schal loke to the erthe, and lo! tribulacioun, and derknessis, and vnbyndyng, ether discoumfort, and angwisch, and myist pursuynge; and it schal not mow fle awei fro his angwisch.
