< Hesekiel 25 >
1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
The word of Yhwh came again unto me, saying,
2 “Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Amonfo so na hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn.
Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;
3 Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Muntie Otumfo Awurade asɛm. Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ wokaa “Ɛhɛɛ” guu me kronkronbea so bere a woguu ho fi ne Israel asase bere a ɛdaa mpan, ne Yudafo bere a wɔkɔɔ nnommum mu
And say unto the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord Yhwh; Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Because thou saidst, Aha, against my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and against the land of Israel, when it was desolate; and against the house of Judah, when they went into captivity;
4 nti, mede mo rebɛma nnipa a wofi Apuei fam na wɔde mo ayɛ wɔn de. Wɔbɛkyekye wɔn nsraban, asisi wɔn ntamadan wɔ mo mu; wobedi mo nnuaba na wɔanom mo nufusu.
Behold, therefore I will deliver thee to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in thee, and make their dwellings in thee: they shall eat thy fruit, and they shall drink thy milk.
5 Mɛdan Raba ayɛ no yoma adidibea na Amon ayɛ faako a nguan gye wɔn ahome. Afei mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couchingplace for flocks: and ye shall know that I am Yhwh.
6 Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ moabɔ mo nsam de mo anan apempem hɔ, na mode koma mu bɔne nyinaa adi ahurusi atia Israel asase nti,
For thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Because thou hast clapped thine hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all thy despite against the land of Israel;
7 mɛteɛ me nsa atia mo na moayɛ asade ama amanaman no. Metwa mo afi amanaman no mu na matɔre mo ase wɔ nsase no so. Mɛsɛe mo na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
Behold, therefore I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and will deliver thee for a spoil to the heathen; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries: I will destroy thee; and thou shalt know that I am Yhwh.
8 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Moab ne Seir kae se, “Monhwɛ, Yudafi ayɛ sɛ amanaman a aka no”
Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen;
9 nti, mebue Moab nkyɛn mu, afi nkurow a ɛdeda nʼahye so, Bet-Yesimot, Baal-Meon ne Kiriataim, a ɛyɛ asase no anuonyam.
Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth–jeshimoth, Baal–meon, and Kiriathaim,
10 Na mede Moab bɛka Amonfo ho ama nnipa a wɔwɔ Apuei fam de ayɛ wɔn de, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔrenkae Amonfo wɔ amanaman no mu;
Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations.
11 na mɛtwe Moab aso. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am Yhwh.
12 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Esiane sɛ Edom tɔɔ were wɔ Yudafi so na ɔnam so dii fɔ no nti,
Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Because that Edom hath dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and hath greatly offended, and revenged himself upon them;
13 nea Otumfo Awurade se ni: ‘Mɛteɛ me nsa atia Edom na makum ne mmarima ne ne mmoa, mɛma asase a ɛda Teman kosi Dedan ada mpan, na wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Yhwh; I will also stretch out mine hand upon Edom, and will cut off man and beast from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.
14 Me nkurɔfo Israelfo bɛyɛ nsa a mɛfa so atɔ Edom so were na wɔne no bedi no sɛnea mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew te; wobehu mʼaweretɔ, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.’”
And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord Yhwh.
15 “Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: ‘Esiane sɛ Filistifo tɔɔ were, na wɔde koma mu nsusuw bɔne na ɛyɛɛ saa, na wɔde ɔtan a efi tete sɛee Yuda nti,
Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Because the Philistines have dealt by revenge, and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart, to destroy it for the old hatred;
16 sɛnea Otumfo Awurade se ni: Merebɛteɛ me nsa atia Filistifo, na matwa Keretifo no agu na masɛe wɔn a wɔaka wɔ mpoano hɔ no.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, I will stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast.
17 Mɛtɔ wɔn so were a ɛso na matwe wɔn aso wɔ mʼabufuwhyew mu. Na sɛ metɔ wɔn so were a, wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am Yhwh, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
