< Hesekiel 11 >
1 Afei honhom no maa me so de me baa Awurade fi pon a ani kyerɛ apuei fam no ano. Na mmarima aduonu anum wɔ hɔ, na mihuu Asur babarima Yaasania ne Benaia babarima Pelatia a wɔyɛ nnipa no ntuanofo.
And the spirit reiside me, and ledde me with ynne to the eest yate of the hous of the Lord, that biholdith the risyng of the sunne. And lo! in the entryng of the yate weren fyue and twenti men; and Y siy in the myddis of hem Jeconye, the sone of Assur, and Pheltie, the sone of Banaie, princes of the puple.
2 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Onipa ba, eyinom ne mmarima a wɔbɔ pɔw bɔne na wotu fo bɔne wɔ kuropɔn yi mu.
And he seide to me, Thou, sone of man, these ben the men that thenken wickidnesse, and treten the worste counsel in this citee,
3 Wɔkae se, ‘Bere a wɔde sisi afi no nnuu so ana? Kuropɔn yɛ dadesɛn, na yɛyɛ nam.’
and seien, Whether housis weren not bildid a while ago? this is the cawdrun, forsothe we ben fleischis.
4 Ɛno nti hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn, hyɛ nkɔm, onipa ba.”
Therfor profesie thou of hem, profesie thou, sone of man.
5 Afei, Awurade Honhom baa me so na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se menka se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Saa na moreka, mo Israel akannifo, nanso minim nsusuwii a ɛwɔ mo adwene mu.
And the Spirit of the Lord felle in to me, and seide to me, Speke thou, The Lord seith these thingis, Ye hous of Israel spaken thus, and Y knewe the thouytis of youre herte;
6 Moakunkum nnipa bebree wɔ kuropɔn yi mu, na mode afunu ahyehyɛ ne mmɔnten so amaama.
ye killiden ful many men in this citee, and ye filliden the weies therof with slayn men.
7 “Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Afunu a moatotow apete hɔ no yɛ nam na kuropɔn yi ne dadesɛn no, nanso mɛpam mo afi mu.
Therfor the Lord seith these thingis, Youre slayn men, whiche ye puttiden in the myddis therof, these ben fleischis, and this is the cawdrun; and Y schal lede you out of the myddis therof.
8 Musuro afoa, na ɛno ara na mede bɛba mo so, sɛɛ na Awurade se.
Ye dredden swerd, and Y schal brynge in swerd on you, seith the Lord God.
9 Mɛpam mo afi kuropɔn no mu na mede mo ahyɛ ananafo nsa, na matwe mo aso.
And Y schal caste you out of the myddis therof, and Y schal yyue you in to the hond of enemyes, and Y schal make domes in you.
10 Mobɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano, na mebu mu atɛn wɔ Israel asase so. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
Bi swerd ye schulen falle doun, Y schal deme you in the endis of Israel; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
11 Saa kuropɔn yi remmɔ mo ho ban sɛnea dadesɛn bɔ nam a ɛwɔ mu no ho ban no; Mebu mo atɛn wɔ Israel asase so.
This schal not be to you in to a cawdrun, and ye schulen not be in to fleischis in the myddis therof; Y schal deme you in the endis of Israel,
12 Na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no, efisɛ moanni mʼahyɛde so, moapo me mmara na nea aman a atwa mo ho ahyia no yɛ no na mo nso moyɛ.”
and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord. For ye yeden not in myn heestis, and ye dyden not my domes, but ye wrouyten bi the domes of hethene men, that ben in youre cumpas.
13 Afei bere a migu so rehyɛ nkɔm no, Benaia babarima Pelatia wui. Na mede mʼanim butuw fam suu dennen se, “Aa, Otumfo Awurade, wobɛtɔre Israel nkae yi ase koraa ana?”
And it was doon, whanne Y profesiede, Pheltie, the sone of Banaie, was deed; and Y felle doun on my face, and Y criede with greet vois, and seide, Alas! alas! alas! Lord God, thou makist endyng of the remenauntis of Israel.
14 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
15 “Onipa ba, wo nuabarimanom, wɔn a wo ne wɔn yɛ mogya baako ne Israelfi nyinaa, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem kasa fa wɔn ho se, ‘Wɔne Awurade ntam kwan ware, na wɔde saa asase yi maa yɛn sɛ yɛn agyapade.’”
and he seide, Sone of man, thi britheren, thi kynes men, and al the hous of Israel, and alle men, to whiche the dwelleris of Jerusalem seiden, Go ye awei fer fro the Lord, the lond is youun to vs in to possessioun.
16 “Ɛno nti ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛwɔ mu sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ akyirikyiri wɔ amanaman mu, hwetee wɔn guu nsase so de, nanso bere tiaa bi mu no meyɛɛ wɔn kronkronbea wɔ nsase a na wɔwɔ so no so.’
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For Y made hem fer among hethene men, and for Y scateride hem in londis, Y schal be to hem in to a litil halewyng, in the londis to whiche thei camen.
17 “Enti ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mɛboaboa mo ano afi amanaman no ne nsase a mehwetee mo guu so no asan aba, na mede Israel asase bɛsan ama mo.’
Therfor speke thou, The Lord God seith these thingis, Y schal gadere you fro puplis, and Y schal gadere you togidere fro londis, in whiche ye ben scatered; and Y schal yyue the erthe of Israel to you.
18 “Wɔbɛsan aba so na wɔayiyi nsɛsode atantan ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no nyinaa.
And thei schulen entre thidur, and schulen do awei alle offenciouns, and alle abhomynaciouns therof in that dai.
19 Mɛma wɔn koma koro na mede honhom foforo ahyɛ wɔn mu; meyi wɔn komaden no na mama wɔn koma a ɛyɛ mmerɛw.
And Y schal yyue to hem oon herte, and Y schal yyue a newe spirit in the entrails of hem; and Y schal take awei a stony herte fro the fleisch of hem, and Y schal yyue to hem an herte of fleisch;
20 Afei wobedi mʼahyɛde so na wɔahwɛ akora me mmara yiye. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfo na mayɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn.
that thei go in my comaundementis, and kepe my domes, and do tho; and that thei be in to a puple to me, and Y be in to God to hem.
21 Nanso wɔn a wɔde wɔn koma ama nsɛsode atantan ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no de, mɛma nea wɔayɛ no abɔ wɔn ti so, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se.”
But of whiche the herte goith after her offendyngis and abhomynaciouns, Y schal sette the weie of hem in her heed, seith the Lord God.
22 Afei kerubim no ne wɔn nkyimii trɛtrɛw wɔn ntaban mu, na Israel Nyankopɔn anuonyam konkɔn wɔn so.
And the cherubyns reisiden her wyngis, and the wheelis yeden with tho, and the glorie of God of Israel was on tho.
23 Awurade anuonyam maa ne ho so fii kuropɔn no mu kogyinaa bepɔw a ɛwɔ apuei fam no atifi.
And the glorie of the Lord stiede fro the myddis of the citee, and stood on the hil, which is at the eest of the citee.
24 Honhom no maa me so de me baa nnommum a wɔwɔ Babilonia no nkyɛn wɔ anisoadehu a Onyankopɔn Honhom maa me no mu. Afei anisoade a mihuu no fii me so kɔɔ ɔsoro.
And the spirit reiside me, and brouyte me in to Caldee, to the passyng ouer, in visioun bi the spirit of God; and the visioun which Y hadde seyn, was takun awei fro me.
25 Na mekaa biribiara a Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me no kyerɛɛ nnommum no.
And Y spak to the passyng ouer alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he hadde schewid to me.
