Daniel 9
1 Ahasweros babarima Dario (a nʼase fi Media) a wɔyɛɛ no ɔhene wɔ Babilonia ahenni so no,
In the firste yeer of Darius, the sone of Assuerus, of the seed of Medeis, that was emperour on the rewme of Caldeis,
2 afe a edi kan no, me, Daniel, metee ase fii kyerɛwsɛm mu sɛnea Awurade de maa Odiyifo Yeremia se, Yerusalem bɛda mpan mfirihyia aduɔson.
in the firste yeer of his rewme, Y, Danyel, vndurstood in bookis the noumbre of yeeris, of which noumbre the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, the profete, that seuenti yeer of desolacioun of Jerusalem schulde be fillid.
3 Ɛno nti, mifuraa atweaatam de nsõ yɛɛ me ho dii mmuada. Afei mede nkotosrɛ kɔɔ Awurade Nyankopɔn anim kɔbɔɔ mpae srɛe.
And Y settide my face to my Lord God, to preie and to biseche in fastyngis, in sak, and aische.
4 Mebɔɔ Awurade me Nyankopɔn mpae, na mepaee mu kae se: “Awurade, wo a wo so na woyɛ Onyankopɔn nwonwani! Wo a wudi ɔdɔ apam so—ɔdɔ apam a woayɛ ama wɔn a wɔdɔ wo na wodi wo mmara so.
And Y preiede my Lord God, and Y knoulechide, and seide, Y biseche, thou Lord God, greet and ferdful, kepynge couenaunt and mercy to hem that louen thee, and kepen thi comaundementis.
5 Yɛayɛ bɔne, na yɛayɛ mfomso. Yɛabɔ atirimɔden na yɛatew atua; yɛakwati wo mmara ne wʼahyɛde.
We han synned, we han do wickidnesse, we diden unfeithfuli, and yeden awei, and bowiden awei fro thi comaundementis and domes.
6 Yɛantie wʼasomfo adiyifo a wɔkasaa wɔ wo din mu kyerɛɛ yɛn ahemfo ne ahenemma ne agyanom ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa.
We obeieden not to thi seruauntis, profetis, that spaken in thi name to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, and to al the puple of the lond.
7 “Awurade, woyɛ ɔtreneeni, nanso nnɛ de, yɛn anim agu ase, Yudafo ne Yerusalemfo ne Israelfo nyinaa, wɔn a wɔbɛn ne wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri a wɔabɔ apansam. Esiane yɛn amumɔyɛ nti, yɛn anim agu ase.
Lord, riytfulnesse is to thee, forsothe schenschipe of face is to vs, as is to dai to a man of Juda, and to the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and to al Israel, to these men that ben niy, and to these men that ben afer in alle londis, to which thou castidist hem out for the wickidnessis of hem, in whiche, Lord, thei synneden ayens thee.
8 Awurade, aniwu aka yɛn ne yɛn ahemfo, ahenemma ne yɛn agyanom, efisɛ yɛayɛ bɔne atia wo.
Schame of face is to vs, to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, that synneden;
9 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ, yɛatew Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn anim atua, nanso ɔyɛ ahummɔbɔ na ɔde bɔne kyɛ.
but merci and benygnytee is to thee, oure Lord God. For we yeden awei fro thee,
10 Yɛanyɛ osetie amma Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn, na yɛanni ne mmara a ɔnam nʼasomfo adiyifo so de maa yɛn no so.
and herden not the vois of oure Lord God, that we schulden go in the lawe of hym, whiche he settide to vs bi hise seruauntis, profetis.
11 Israel nyinaa abu wo mmara so, na wɔafi ho a wɔmpɛ sɛ wɔyɛ osetie ma wo. “Enti nnome ne atemmu a wɔaka ntam akyerɛw wɔ Onyankopɔn somfo Mose Mmara mu no, wɔahwie agu yɛn so, sɛ yɛayɛ bɔne atia wo nti.
And al Israel braken thi lawe, and bowiden awei, that thei herden not thi vois; and cursyng, and wlatyng, which is writun in the book of Moises, the seruaunt of God, droppide on vs, for we synneden to hym.
12 Ɔhaw kɛse a wobɔɔ ho kɔkɔ sɛ wobɛyɛ atia yɛn ne yɛn ahemfo no, woayɛ. Ɔsoro ase nyinaa, biribiara nsii sɛnea asi wɔ Yerusalem no bi da.
And he ordeynede hise wordis, whiche he spak on vs, and on oure princes, that demyden vs, that thei schulden brynge in on vs greet yuel, what maner yuel was neuer vndur al heuene, bi that that is doon in Jerusalem,
13 Sɛnea wɔakyerɛw wɔ Mose mmara mu no, saa amanehunu yi nyinaa aba yɛn so, nanso yɛnhwehwɛɛ Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn mmɔborɔhunu, sɛ yebefi yɛn bɔne ho na yɛapɛ nokware akyi kwan.
as it is writun in the lawe of Moises. Al this yuel cam on vs, and, oure Lord God, we preieden not thi face, that we schulden turne ayen fro oure wickidnessis, and schulden thenke thi treuthe.
14 Awurade antwentwɛn sɛ ɔde amanehunu no bɛba yɛn so, efisɛ Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn yɛ pɛ wɔ biribiara a ɔyɛ mu, nanso yɛanyɛ osetie amma no.
And the Lord wakide on malice, and brouyt it on vs; oure Lord God is iust in alle his werkis whiche he made, for we herden not his vois.
15 “Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn, wo a wode nsa a ɛyɛ den yii wo nkurɔfo fii Misraim, de gyee din a atena hɔ abesi nnɛ yi, yɛayɛ bɔne, yɛayɛ mfomso.
And now, Lord God, that leddist thi puple out of the lond of Egipt in strong hond, and madist to thee a name bi this dai, we han synnede,
16 Awurade, sɛnea wo trenee nneyɛe nyinaa te no nti, yi wʼabufuw ne wʼanibere fi wo kuropɔn Yerusalem ne wo bepɔw kronkron no so. Esiane yɛn bɔne ne yɛn agyanom amumɔyɛ nti, nnipa a wɔatwa Yerusalem ho ahyia no nyinaa di Yerusalem ne wo nkurɔfo ho fɛw.
we han do wickidnesse, Lord, ayens thi riytfulnesse. Y biseche, thi wraththe and thi stronge veniaunce be turned awey fro thi citee Jerusalem, and fro thi hooli hil; for whi for oure synnes, and for the wickidnessis of oure fadris, Jerusalem and thi puple ben in schenschipe, to alle men bi oure cumpas.
17 “Na afei yɛn Nyankopɔn, tie wʼakoa mpaebɔ, ne ne nkotosrɛ. Wo nti, Awurade, tew wʼanim bio kyerɛ wo kronkronbea hɔ a agyigya no.
But now, oure God, here thou the preyer of thi seruaunt, and the bisechyngis of him, and schewe thi face on thi seyntuarie, which is forsakun.
18 Yɛ aso, me Nyankopɔn na tie; bue wʼani, na hwɛ kuropɔn a wo Din da so a agyigya no. Ɛnyɛ yɛn trenee nti na yɛde yɛn nkotosrɛ aba wʼanim, na mmom ɛyɛ wo mmɔborɔhunu bebrebe no nti.
My God, for thi silf boowe doun thin eere, and here; opene thin iyen, and se oure desolacioun, and the citee, on which thi name is clepid to help. For not in oure iustifiyngis we setten forth mekeli preiers bifor thi face, but in thi many merciful doyngis.
19 Awurade, tie! Awurade, fa kyɛ! Awurade, tie na yɛ! Wo nti, me Nyankopɔn, ntwentwɛn wʼanan ase, efisɛ wo Din da wo kuropɔn ne wo nkurɔfo so.”
Lord, here thou; Lord, be thou plesid, perseyue thou, and do; my Lord God, tarie thou not, for thi silf, for thi name is clepid to help on the citee, and on thi puple.
20 Bere a merekasa na merebɔ mpae, na mereka me ne me nkurɔfo Israelfo bɔne akyerɛ, na mede mʼadesrɛ reto Awurade me Nyankopɔn anim ama ne bepɔw kronkron no,
And whanne Y spak yit, and preiede, and knoulechide my synnes, and the synnes of my puple Israel, that Y schulde sette forth mekeli my preieris in the siyt of my God, for the hooli hil of my God,
21 na migu so rebɔ mpae no, Gabriel a mihuu no kan anisoadehu mu no de ahoɔhare baa me nkyɛn bɛyɛ anwummere afɔrebɔ bere mu.
the while Y spak yit in my preyer, lo! the man Gabriel, whom Y hadde seyn in visioun at the bigynnyng, flei soone, and touchide me in the tyme of euentid sacrifice;
22 Ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ me se, “Daniel, maba ha sɛ merebrɛ wo nhumu ne ntease.
and he tauyt me, and he spak to me, and seide, Danyel, now Y yede out, that Y schulde teche thee, and thou schuldist vndurstonde.
23 Wufii ase sɛ worebɔ mpae pɛ no, mmuae bae, na maba sɛ merebɛka akyerɛ wo, efisɛ, wobu wo yiye. Enti dwene asɛm no ho na te anisoadehu no ase.
Fro the bigynnyng of thi preieris a word yede out. Forsothe Y cam to schewe to thee, for thou art a man of desiris; therfor perseyue thou the word, and vndurstonde thou the visioun.
24 “‘Mmere aduɔson ahorow ason’ na wɔahyɛ ama wo nkurɔfo ne wo kuropɔn kronkron no sɛ wɔmfa nnyae mmarato, na wontwa bɔneyɛ so, na wɔmpata atirimɔden, na trenee a to ntwa da mmra, na wɔnsɔw anisoadehu ne nkɔmhyɛ ano, na wɔnsra Kronkron mu Kronkronbea hɔ ngo.
Seuenti woukis of yeeris ben abreggid on thi puple, and on thin hooli citee, that trespassyng be endid, and synne take an ende, and that wickidnesse be doon awei, and euerlastynge riytfulnesse be brouyt, and that the visioun, and prophesie be fillid, and the hooli of seyntis be anoyntid.
25 “Tie na te eyi ase: Efi bere a asɛm no bɛkɔ ama wɔasi Yerusalem ayɛ no foforo, kosi sɛ Nea Wɔasra no Ngo no bɛba no bɛyɛ mmere ason ahorow ‘ason’, ne aduosia abien ahorow ‘ason.’ Wobeyiyi mmorɔn ne akwan na wɔayɛ bammɔ a ɛyɛ den, nanso ɛbɛyɛ ahohiahia bere mu.
Therfor wite thou, and perseyue; fro the goyng out of the word, that Jerusalem be bildid eft, til to Crist, the duyk, schulen be seuene woukis of yeeris and two and sixti woukis of yeeris; and eft the street schal be bildid, and wallis, in the angwisch of tymes.
26 Mmere aduosia abien ahorow ason akyi no, wobekum Nea Wɔasra no ngo no a wɔrennya ne ho asɛm biara. Ɔhene a ɔbɛba no nkurɔfo bɛba abɛsɛe kuropɔn ne kronkronbea no. Awiei no bɛba sɛ nsuyiri, na ɔko ne mu ahoyeraw bɛba akosi awiei sɛnea wɔahyɛ no.
And after two and sixti woukis `of yeeris Crist schal be slayn. And it schal not be his puple, that schal denye hym. And the puple with the duyk to comynge schal distrie the citee, and the seyntuarie; and the ende therof schal be distriyng, and after the ende of batel schal be ordeynede desolacioun.
27 Ɔbɛhoro ɔno ne nnipa bebree ntam apam so dua wɔ mmere ‘ason’ baako mu. Na mmere ‘ason’ no mfimfini no, obegyae afɔrebɔ ne ayɛyɛdema. Obedua abusude a ɛde ɔsɛe bɛba wɔ asɔredan no mu, kosi sɛ awiei a wɔahyɛ no behwie agu ne so.”
Forsothe o wouk `of yeeris schal conferme the couenaunt to many men, and the offryng and sacrifice schal faile in the myddis of the wouke of yeeris; and abhomynacioun of desolacioun schal be in the temple, and the desolacioun schal contynue til to the parformyng and ende.
