1 Ke hã la, blukɔdodo ƒe ɣeyiɣi kple dziɖeleameƒo ƒe ɣeyiɣi manɔ anyi ɖikaa o. Tsã la, èbɔbɔ Zebulonyigba kple Naftalinyigba ɖe anyi. Ke le ɣeyiɣi siwo gbɔna me la, ade bubu dukɔ siwo le Ƒutamɔ dzi kple esiwo le Yɔdan godo la ŋu.
In the firste tyme the lond of Zabulon and the lond of Neptalym was releessid; and at the laste the weie of the see biyende Jordan of Galile of hethene men was maad heuy.
2 Dukɔ si le viviti me zɔm la kpɔ kekeli gã aɖe, ame siwo le blukɔ tsiɖitsiɖi ƒe anyigba dzi la, kekeli klẽ na wo.
The puple that yede in derknessis siy a greet liyt; whanne men dwelliden in the cuntre of schadewe of deth, liyt roos vp to hem.
3 Èdzi dukɔ la ɖe edzi, eye nèdzi woƒe dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ hã ɖe edzi. Wokpɔ dzidzɔ le ŋkuwòme abe ale si amewo kpɔa dzidzɔ le nuŋeɣi kple abe ale si amewo kpɔa dzidzɔ ne wole aboyonu mam la ene.
Thou multipliedist folk, thou magnefiedist not gladnesse; thei schulen be glad bifore thee, as thei that ben glad in heruest, as ouercomeris maken ful out ioie, whanne thei han take a prey, whanne thei departen the spuylis.
4 Ale si wònɔ le Midiatɔwo ŋɔli ene la, ègbã kɔkuti si nye agba la na wo, èɖe kɔsɔkɔsɔ si le kɔ na wo kple ame siwo te wo ɖe anyi la ƒe ameƒoti ɖa.
For thou hast ouercome the yok of his birthun, and the yerde of his schuldre, and the ceptre of his wrongful axere, as in the day of Madian.
5 Woatɔ dzo aʋawɔlawo ƒe afɔkpawo kple awu si bliba ʋu le aʋa me la, eye dzo afia wo,
For whi al violent raueyn with noise, and a cloth meddlid with blood schal be in to brennyng, and `schal be the mete of fier.
6 elabena wodzi vi na mí, wona ŋutsuvi mí. Dziɖuɖu le eƒe abɔta, eye woda fianyenye ƒe bubuŋkɔwo ɖe edzi be, “Nukunu, Aɖaŋudela, Mawu Kalẽtɔ, Fofo Mavɔ kple Ŋutifafafia.”
Forsothe a litil child is borun to vs, and a sone is youun to vs, and prinsehod is maad on his schuldre; and his name schal be clepid Wondurful, A counselour, God, Strong, A fadir of the world to comynge, A prince of pees.
7 Eƒe dziɖuɖu akeke ta, eye seɖoƒe manɔ eƒe fiaɖuƒe ŋu o. Aɖu fia le fofoa David ƒe fiazikpui dzi kple eƒe fiaɖuƒe la me, ne woafɔe ɖe te, eye wòatsɔ ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ dzɔdzɔe ali kee tso ɣe ma ɣi yi ɖe mavɔ me. Nu sia ava eme, elabena Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe didi vevie awɔe ade goe.
His empire schal be multiplied, and noon ende schal be of his pees; he schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and on the rewme of hym, that he conferme it, and make stronge in doom and riytfulnesse, fro hennus forth and til in to with outen ende. The feruent loue of the Lord of oostis schal make this.
8 Aƒetɔ la ɖo du ɖe Yakob, eye wòava ƒo ɖe Israel dzi
The Lord sente a word in to Jacob, and it felle in Israel.
9 ne amewo katã nadze sii hekpe ɖe Efraim kple Samariatɔwo, ame siwo nɔa gbɔgblɔm le dada kple adegbe ƒuƒlu me be,
And al the puple of Effraym schal wite, and thei that dwellen in Samarie, seiynge in the pride and greetnesse of herte,
10 “Anyikpewo mu dze anyi, gake míagbugbɔ wo atu kple kpe tɔxɛwo; wotso gbotiwo ƒu anyi, ke míado sedatiwo ɖe wo teƒe”,
Tijl stoonys fellen doun, but we schulen bilde with square stoonys; thei han kit doun sicomoris, but we schulen chaunge cedris.
11 gake Yehowa do Rezin ƒe futɔwo ɖe dzi ɖe wo ŋu, eye wòde ƒu lãme na eƒe futɔwo.
And the Lord schal reise the enemyes of Rasyn on hym, and he schal turne the enemyes of hym in to noyse;
12 Aram tso ɣedzeƒe, eye Filistitɔwo tso ɣetoɖoƒe vuvu Israel kple nu siwo ke ɖi baa la. Togbɔ be esiawo katã dzɔ hã la, Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe nu mefa o, eye eƒe alɔ gale dzi ɖe wo ŋu ko.
God schal make Sirie to come fro the eest, and Filisteis fro the west; and with al the mouth thei schulen deuoure Israel. In alle these thingis the stronge veniaunce of the Lord is not turned awei, but yit his hond is stretchid forth;
13 Gake ame siawo metrɔ ɖe ame si ƒo wo la ŋu o, wogbe be yewomadi Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la yomemɔ o.
and the puple is not turned ayen to the Lord smytynge it, and thei souyten not the Lord of oostis.
14 Ale Yehowa tsrɔ̃ ta kple asike, deʋaya kple keti siaa ɖa tso Israel le ŋkeke ɖeka dzi.
And the Lord schal leese fro Israel the heed and the tail; crokynge and bischrewynge, ether refreynynge, in o dai.
15 Ame tsitsiwo kple ame ŋkutawoe nye ta la, eye nyagblɔɖila siwo fiaa alakpadada lae nye asike la.
An elde man and onourable, he is the heed, and a profete techynge a leesyng, he is the tail.
16 Ame siawo kplɔlawo nye ameblelawo, eye ame siwo blem wole la bu.
And thei that blessen his puple, schulen be disseyueris, and thei that ben blessid, schulen be cast doun.
17 Eya ta Aƒetɔ la makpɔ dzidzɔ le ɖekakpuiwo ŋu alo ave tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo nu o, elabena wo katã wonye mawumavɔ̃lawo kple ame vɔ̃ɖiwo eye wo katã wogblɔa nya vlowo. Ke le esiawo katã megbe hã la, eƒe dɔmedzoe nu mefa o, eye eƒe alɔ gale dzi ko.
For this thing the Lord schal not be glad on the yonge men therof, and he schal not haue merci on the fadirles children and widewis therof; for ech man is an ypocrite and weiward, and ech mouth spak foli. In alle these thingis the stronge veniaunce of hym is not turned awei, but yit his hond is stretchid forth;
18 Vavã ŋutasesẽ le bibim abe dzo ene. Efia ŋuwo kple aŋɔkawo, eye wòtɔ dzo avekɔewo kple avedodowo, ale be dzudzɔ de dzi kɔtɔɔ.
and the puple is not turned ayen to the Lord smytynge it. For whi wickidnesse is kyndlid as fier; it schal deuoure the breris and thornes, and it schal be kyndlid in the thickenesse of the forest, and it schal be wlappid togidere in the pride of smoke.
19 Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe dɔmedzoe na dzo ƒo anyigba, eye dukɔ la anye dzodonu, ame aɖeke makpɔ nɔvia ta o.
In the wraththe of the Lord of oostis the lond schal be disturblid, and the puple schal be as the mete of fier; a man schal not spare his brothir.
20 Woavuvu nu le ɖusime, gake dɔ aganɔ wo wum, woaɖu nu le miame, gake womaɖi ƒo o. Ame sia ame aɖu eya ŋutɔ ƒe dɔmevi ƒe lã.
And he schal boowe to the riyt half, and he schal hungre, and he schal ete at the left half, and he schal not be fillid; ech man schal deuoure the fleisch of his arm. Manasses schal deuoure Effraym, and Effraym `schal deuoure Manasses, and thei togidere ayens Juda.
21 Manase aɖu Efraim, eye Efraim aɖu Manase, wo kple eve la siaa woatso ɖe Yuda ŋu. Le esiawo katã megbe hã la, Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe nu metsi o, eye eƒe alɔ gale dzi ko.
In alle these thingis the strong veniaunce of hym is not turned awei, but yit his hoond is stretchid forth.
