ʻIsaia 21
1 Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki he toafa ʻoe tahi. ʻO hangē ʻoku ʻasi ʻi he feituʻu tonga ʻae ngaahi ʻahiohio; ʻoku pehē ʻae haʻu ia mei he toafa, mei he fonua fakamanavahē.
Nkɔmhyɛ a ɛfa Nweatam a ɛda Po ho no ho: Te sɛ mfɛtɛ a ɛbɔ fa anafo fam asase so no, ɔtamfo bi fi nweatam so reba, ofi asase a ɛyɛ ahuabɔbrim so.
2 ʻOku fakahā mai kiate au ʻae meʻa hā mai fakamanavahē; ʻoku fai kākā ʻe he kākā, pea kuo veteki ʻe ia ʻoku vete. ʻE ʻIlami, ke ke ʻalu hake: ʻE Mitia, ke ke fai ʻae kāpui; he kuo u fakaʻosi ʻene ngaahi mamahi kotoa pē.
Wɔde adaeso a ɛyɛ nwonwa akyerɛ me: Ɔfatwafo di huammɔ, ɔfomfo fa asade. Elam tow hyɛ so! Media bɔ pampim! Mede apinisi a ɔde bae no nyinaa bɛba awiei.
3 Ko ia kuo fonu ai ʻi he mamahi hoku kongaloto: kuo kuku au ʻe he mamahi, ʻo hangē ko e mamahi ʻae fefine ʻoku langā: naʻaku mapelu ʻi he fanongo ki ai; pea ne u manavahē ʻi he sio ki ai.
Eyi ama ɔyaw bi abɛhyɛ me mu, ɔyaw aka me, te sɛ ɔbea a awo aka no; nea metee no nti mintumi nnyina me nan so, nea mihu no ama me ho adwiriw me.
4 ʻOku tateme hoku mafu, ʻoku ilifia ʻi he manavahē: kuo ne liliu ʻae pō ʻo ʻeku fiefia ko e manavahē kiate au.
Me koma bɔ kitirikitiri, ehu ma me ho popo; na hann a mepɛɛ sɛ mihu no abɛyɛ aninyanne ama me.
5 “Teuteu ʻae keinangaʻanga, leʻo ʻi he fale leʻo, pea kai, mo inu: mou tuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi houʻeiki, pea tākai ʻae fakaū.”
Wɔto pon, wɔde kuntu akɛtɛ sesɛw fam, wodidi, na wɔnom! Monsɔre, mo asraafo mpanyimfo, momfa ngo nsrasra mo akatabo ho!
6 He kuo pehē ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, “ʻAlu, ʻo fakanofo ha tangata leʻo, ke ne fakahā ʻaia ʻoku ne mamata ki ai.
Sɛɛ na Awurade ka kyerɛ me: “Fa ɔwɛmfo kogyina hɔ na ɔnka nea ohu nkyerɛ wo.
7 Pea naʻa ne mamata ki he saliote mo e ongo tangata heka hoosi, ko e saliote mo e ngaahi ʻasi, pea mo e saliote mo e fanga kāmeli; pea naʻa ne fanongo ʻi he tokanga lahi:”
Sɛ ohu nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ akuwakuw, wɔn a wɔtete mfurum so ne wɔn a wɔtete yoma so a, ɔnwɛn nʼaso, nwɛn no pa ara.”
8 Pea naʻa ne kalanga, ʻo hangē ko e laione: “Ko hoku ʻEiki, ʻoku ou tuʻumaʻu aipē ʻi he fale leʻo ʻi he ʻaho, pea ʻoku ou nofo ʻi hoku potu leʻo ʻi he ngaahi pō kotoa pē:
Na ɔwɛmfo no teɛɛ mu se, “Me wura, da biara migyina ɔwɛn aban no so Anadwo biara, migyina hɔ.
9 Pea vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae saliote mo e kau tangata, mo e ongo tangata heka hoosi.” Pea naʻa ne lea ʻo pehē mai, “Kuo hinga ʻa Papilone, kuo hinga; pea kuo ne laiki ki he kelekele ʻae fakatātā kotoa pē ʻo hono ngaahi ʻotua ʻoku tongi.”
Hwɛ, ɔbarima bi a ɔte teaseɛnam mu na ɔreba yi ɔne apɔnkɔ dɔm. Na ɔwɛmfo no kae se, ‘Babilon ahwe ase, wahwe ase! Nʼanyame ne nʼahoni nyinaa abubu agu fam!’”
10 ʻOiauē! ʻAe meʻa kuo u haha, pea mo e uite ʻo hoku hahaʻanga: ko ia kuo u fanongo meia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko ia kuo u fakahā kiate koe.
Ao, me nkurɔfo a, wɔadwerɛw mo wɔ awiporowbea ase meka nea mate kyerɛ mo nea efi Asafo Awurade, nea efi Israel Nyankopɔn hɔ.
11 Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki Toma. ʻOku ne ui kiate au mei Seia, ʻae tangata leʻo, “ʻOku fēfē ʻae pō? ʻAe tangata leʻo, ʻoku fēfē ʻae pō?”
Adehu a ɛfa Duma ho: Obi frɛ me fi Seir, “Ɔwɛmfo, bere bɛn na ade bɛkyɛ? Ɔwɛmfo, aka nnɔnhwerew ahe ansa na ade akye?”
12 Naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata leʻo, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae pongipongi, pea mo e pō foki: kapau te mou fehuʻi, mou fehuʻi: tafoki, haʻu.”
Ɔwɛmfo no bua se, “Ade rekye, nanso ade bɛsa. Sɛ wubebisa bio a san bra bebisa.”
13 Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki ʻAlepea. ʻI he vao lahi ʻi ʻAlepea, te mou mohe, ʻakimoutolu ko e kaunga fononga ʻo Tetanimi.
Adehu a ɛfa Arabia ho: Mo Dedan akwantufo a mosoɛ wɔ Arabia adɔtɔ ase,
14 Naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua ko Tima ʻae vai kiate ia naʻe fieinu, naʻa nau tokoni ʻaki ʻenau mā ʻakinautolu naʻe hola.
Momfa nsu mmrɛ wɔn a osukɔm de wɔn; mo a motete Tema, mommrɛ aguanfo no aduan.
15 He naʻa nau hola mei he ngaahi heletā, mei he heletā kuo toʻo, pea mei he kaufana kuo teke, pea mo e ngaahi mamahi ʻoe tau.
Woguan fi afoa a watwe tadua a wɔakuntun mu ne ɔko a egyina mu ano.
16 He kuo pehē ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki kiate au, “ʻI he teʻeki ai kakato ha taʻu ʻe taha, hangē ko e ngaahi taʻu ʻo ha taha ʻoku ngāue kae totongi, ʻe ngata ʻo ʻosi ʻae lelei kotoa pē ʻo Keta:
Sɛɛ na Awurade ka kyerɛ me, “Afe baako mu, sɛnea ɔsomfo a wayɛ nhyehyɛe bebubu nna no, Kedar kɛseyɛ to betwa.
17 Pea ʻe fakatokosiʻi hono toe ʻoe lau ʻoe kau tangata fana, ʻi he kau tangata mālohi ʻoe fānau ʻo Keta: he kuo folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
Na agyantowfo a wɔbɛka ne Kedar akofo bɛyɛ kakraa bi.” Nea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, aka ni.
