Hesekiel 13

1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se,

And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

2 “Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm tia Israel adiyifo a wɔhyɛ nkɔm mprempren no. Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔbɔ wɔn tirim hyɛ nkɔm no se: ‘Muntie Awurade asɛm!

O son of humankind prophesy against [the] prophets of Israel who are prophesying and you will say to [the] prophets from own heart their hear [the] word of Yahweh.

3 Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Nnome nka adiyifo nkwaseafo a wodi wɔn ankasa honhom akyi na wonhuu hwee no.

Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh woe! on the prophets the fools who [are] walking after own spirit their and to not they have seen.

4 Ao Israelfo, mo adiyifo yi te sɛ nnwiriwii mu sakraman.

Like foxes among ruins prophets your O Israel they have been.

5 Monkɔɔ sɛ morekosiesie afasu no afaafa a abubu no ama Israelfi, sɛnea ebetumi agyina pintinn wɔ ɔko no ano wɔ Awurade da no.’

Not you have gone up in the breaches and you have walled up a wall on [the] house of Israel to stand in the battle on [the] day Yahweh.

6 Wɔn adehu yɛ atoro, na wɔn adebisa yɛ nnaadaa. Wɔka se, ‘Awurade aka se,’ wɔ bere a Awurade nsomaa wɔn, nanso wɔhwɛ anim sɛ wɔn nkɔmhyɛ bɛba mu.

They have seen worthlessness and divination of falsehood those [who] say [the] utterance of Yahweh and Yahweh not he has sent them and they have waited to fulfill a word.

7 Sɛ moka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade se,’ wɔ bere a menkasae a, na mo anisoadehu nyɛ atoro? Na mo adebisa nso, ɛnyɛ nnaadaa ana?

¿ Not a vision of worthlessness have you seen and divination of falsehood have you said? and [you were] saying [the] utterance of Yahweh and I not I have spoken.

8 “Ɛno nti, sɛnea Otumfo Awurade se ni: ‘Mo nsɛm a ɛyɛ atoro ne mo nnaadaa anisoadehu nti, me ne mo anya’, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because have spoken you worthlessness and you have seen falsehood therefore here I [am] against you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

9 Me nsa betia adiyifo a wɔn anisoadehu yɛ atoro na wɔn abisa yɛ nnaadaa. Wɔremfra me nkurɔfo bagua mu, na wɔrenkyerɛw wɔn din wɔ Israelfi nhoma no mu na wɔn anan rensi Israel asase so. Na afei mubehu sɛ mene Otumfo Awurade.

And it will be hand my against the prophets who see worthlessness and who divine falsehood in [the] council of people my not they will be and in [the] register of [the] house of Israel not they will be written down and into [the] land of Israel not they will go and you will know that I [am the] Lord Yahweh.

10 “Esiane sɛ wɔama me nkurɔfo ayera kwan, na wɔka se ‘Asomdwoe,’ wɔ bere a asomdwoe nni hɔ, na afei sɛ wɔto ɔfasu a enni ahoɔden bi a na wɔde akaadoo afa so,

Because and by cause they have led astray people my saying peace and there not [is] peace and he [is] building a wall and there they [are] plastering it whitewash.

11 ɛno nti ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔka akaadoo no se, ɔfasu no rebebu. Osu a ɔhweam wɔ mu bɛtɔ, na mɛsoma mparuwbo, na mframa a ano yɛ den bɛbɔ.

Say to [the] plasterers of whitewash so it may fall it will come - rain overflowing and you O stones of hail you will fall and a wind of tempests it will break through [the wall].

12 Na sɛ ɔfasu no bu gu fam a, nnipa remmisa wo se, ‘he na akaadoo a wɔde sraa ho no afa,’ ana?

And there! it has fallen the wall ¿ not will it be said to you where? [is] the plaster which you plastered.

13 “Ɛno nti, nea Otumfo Awurade ka ni: ‘Mʼabufuwhyew mu, mɛma ahum atu, na mʼabufuw mu no, mparuwbo ne osuhweam de adesɛe ahoɔden atɔ.

Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will make break out a wind of tempests in rage my and rain overflowing in anger my it will come and stones of hail in rage for complete destruction.

14 Medwiriw ɔfasu a mode akaadoo afa ho no na mabubu agu fam ama ne fapem ho ada hɔ. Sɛ ɔfasu no hwe ase a, wɔbɛsɛe mo wɔ mu, na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade.

And I will tear down the wall which you plastered whitewash and I will make touch it the ground and it will be uncovered foundation[s] its and it will fall and you will come to an end in [the] midst of it and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.

15 Enti mede mʼabufuwhyew bɛkɔ ɔfasu no ne wɔn a wɔde akaadoo sraa ho no so. Mɛka akyerɛ mo se, “Ɔfasu no nni hɔ bio na saa ara na wɔn a wɔde akaadoo sraa ho no nso nni hɔ,

And I will complete rage my on the wall and on [those who] plastered it whitewash so I may say to you there not [is] the wall and there [are] not those [who] plastered it.

16 saa Israel adiyifo a wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm maa Yerusalem na wohuu asomdwoe anisoade wɔ bere a asomdwoe nni hɔ no,” Otumfo Awurade na ose.’

[the] prophets of Israel who prophesied concerning Jerusalem and who saw for it a vision of peace and there not [was] peace [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

17 “Afei onipa ba, ma wʼani nkɔ wo nkurɔfo a wɔbɔ wɔn tirim hyɛ nkɔm no mmabea so. Hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn

And you O son of humankind set face your against [the] daughters of people your who prophesy from own heart their and prophesy on them.

18 na ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Nnome nka mmea a wɔpempam ntafowayi bansrɛ hyehyɛ wɔn nsakɔn na wɔpempam nkataanim ntiaa ne atenten kata wɔn anim de sum nnipa mfiri. Mubesum me nkurɔfo nkwa mfiri na mo de, moakora mo de so ana?

And you will say thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh woe! to [women who] sew bands on - all [the] joints of hands my and [women who] make the long veils on [the] head of every stature to hunt persons ¿ persons will you hunt of people my and persons of yourself will you preserve alive?

19 Moasopa me wɔ me nkurɔfo mu de agye atoko nsa ma kakraa bi ne brodo asinasin. Monam atoro a mudi kyerɛ me nkurɔfo a wotie atoro so akunkum wɔn a anka ɛnsɛ sɛ wowuwu, na moama wɔn a anka ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtena nkwa mu no afa wɔn ho adi.

And you have profaned me to people my for handfuls of barley and for fragments of bread by putting to death persons who not they will die and by preserving alive persons who not they will live when speak falsehood you to people my [who] listen to falsehood.

20 “‘Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mitia mo ntafowayi bansrɛ a mode sum nkurɔfo mfiri sɛ nnomaa no, na mɛtetew afi mo abasa so; megyaa nnipa a musum wɔn afiri sɛ nnomaa no.

Therefore thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] against bands your which you [are] hunting there the persons for birds and I will tear away them from on arms your and I will set free the persons whom you [are] hunting persons for birds.

21 Mɛtetew mo nkataanim no mu afi mo anim, na magye me nkurɔfo nkwa afi mo nsam, na morennya wɔn so tumi bio. Afei mubehu sɛ me ne Awurade.

And I will tear away long veils your and I will deliver people my from hand your and not they will become again in hand your prey and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.

22 Esiane sɛ mode atoro maa atreneefo aba mu buu wɔ bere a menhyɛɛ wɔn awerɛhow, na mohyɛɛ amumɔyɛfo nkuran se wɔnkɔ so wɔ wɔn akwammɔne so na moagye wɔn nkwa no

Because disheartened [the] heart of [the] righteous falsehood and I not I caused pain him and to strengthen [the] hands of [the] wicked to not to turn back from way his evil to preserve alive him.

23 nti, morenhu atoro anisoade bio na mubegyae ntafowayi nso. Megye me nkurɔfo afi mo nsam na afei mubehu sɛ me ne Awurade no.’”

Therefore worthlessness not you will see and divination not you will divine again and I will deliver people my from hand your and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
