Hesekiel 29
1 Mfe du so ɔsram a ɛto so du no da a ɛto so dumien no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
In the tenthe yeer, in the tweluethe monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide,
2 “Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Misraimhene Farao so na hyɛ nkɔm tia no ne Misraim nyinaa.
Thou, sone of man, sette thi face ayens Farao, king of Egipt; and thou schalt profesie of hym, and of al Egipt.
3 Kasa kyerɛ no na ka se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se. “‘Me ne wo anya, Misraimhene Farao asuboa kɛse a woda wo nsuwansuwa mu.’” Woka se, “Nil yɛ mede; meyɛ maa me ho.”
Speke thou, and thou schalt seie, The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y to thee, thou Farao, kyng of Egipt, thou grete dragoun, that liggist in the myddis of thi floodis, and seist, The flood is myn, and Y made mysilf.
4 Na mede nnarewa besuso wʼabogye mu na mama mpataa a wɔwɔ wo nsuwansuwa mu no atetare wʼabon ho. Mɛtwe wo afi wo nsuwansuwa no mu, a mpataa no nyinaa tetare wo ho.
And Y schal sette a bridil in thi chekis, and Y schal glue the fischis of thi floodis to thi scalis; and Y schal drawe thee out of the myddis of thi floodis, and alle thi fischis schulen cleue to thi scalis.
5 Megyaw wo hɔ wɔ sare no so, wo ne mpataa a wɔwɔ wo nsuwansuwa mu no nyinaa. Mobɛhwe ase wɔ asase petee mu a wɔremma mo so bio. Mede wo bɛma asase so mmoa ne wim nnomaa sɛ wɔn aduan.
And Y schal caste thee forth in to desert, and alle the fischis of thi flood; on the face of erthe thou schalt falle doun, thou schalt not be gaderid, nethir schalt be gaderid togidere; to the beestis of erthe, and to the volatilis of the eir Y yaf thee to be deuourid.
6 Afei wɔn a wɔte Misraim nyinaa behu sɛ mene Awurade no. “‘Woayɛ sɛ demmire pema ama Israelfi.
And alle the dwelleris of Egipt schulen knowe, that Y am the Lord. For that that thou were a staf of rehed to the hous of Israel, whanne thei token thee with hond,
7 Wɔde wɔn nsa soo wo mu no, wo mu bukaw ma wuhuruwii, wotwerii wo no, wo mu bu ma wobɔɔ pemmɔ.
and thou were brokun, and to-rentist ech schuldre of hem, and whanne thei restiden on thee, thou were maad lesse, and thou hast discoumfortid alle the reynes of hem;
8 “‘Ɛno nti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede afoa bɛba abɛko atia wo na makunkum wo mmarima ne wɔn mmoa.
therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe a swerd on thee, and Y schal sle of thee man and beeste;
9 Misraim bɛda mpan na asɛe. Ɛno na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade. “‘Efisɛ wokae se, “Nil yɛ me de; me na meyɛe,” enti
and the lond of Egipt schal be in to desert, and in to wildirnesse, and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord. For that that thou seidist, The flood is myn, and Y made it, therfor lo!
10 me ne wo ne wo nsuwansuwa na anya, na mɛma Misraim asase asɛe na ada mpan, efi Migdol kosi Aswan twa mu de kɔka Kus hye so.
Y to thee, and to thi floodis. And Y schal yyue `in to wildirnesses the lond of Egipt distried bi swerd, fro the tour of Sienes til to the termes of Ethiopie.
11 Onipa anaa aboa biara nan rensi so, obiara rentena so mfe aduanan.
The foot of man schal not passe bi it, nether the foot of beeste schal go in it, and it schal not be enhabitid in fourti yeer.
12 Mɛma Misraim asase no ada mpan wɔ nsase a asɛe mu na ne nkuropɔn bɛda mpan mfe aduanan wɔ wɔn nkuropɔn a asɛe no mu. Na mɛbɔ Misraimfo apete wɔ amanaman mu, na mahwete wɔn wɔ nsase so.
And Y schal yyue the lond of Egipt forsakun, in the myddis of londis forsakun, and the citees therof in the myddis of a citee distried, and tho schulen be desolat bi fourti yeer. And Y schal scatere Egipcians in to naciouns, and Y schal wyndewe hem in to londis.
13 “‘Nanso sɛɛ ne nea Otumfo Awurade se: Mfe aduanan akyi no, mɛboaboa Misraimfo ano afi aman a mebɔɔ wɔn petee so no so.
For the Lord God seith these thingis, After the ende of fourti yeer Y schal gadere togidere Egipt fro puplis, among whiche thei weren scaterid;
14 Mede wɔn befi nnommumfa mu aba na mede wɔn akɔ Misraim Atifi, wɔn nenanom asase. Ɛhɔ na wɔbɛyɛ ahenni mu kumaa bi.
and Y schal bringe ayen the caitifte of Egipte. And Y schal sette hem in the lond of Phatures, in the lond of her birthe; and thei schulen be there in to a meke rewme,
15 Ɛbɛyɛ ahenni a ɛnyɛ den na ɛrentumi mma ne ho so wɔ aman a aka no mu. Mɛyɛ no ahenni a ɛrentumi nni aman afoforo so.
and among othere rewmes it schal be most low, and it schal no more be reisid ouer naciouns. And Y schal make hem lesse, that thei regne not on hethene men;
16 Misraim renyɛ ɔman a Israelfo de wɔn ho bɛto no so bio, mmom ɛbɛkae wɔn bɔne a wɔyɛɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn ho kɔdan no de pɛɛ mmoa. Afei, wobehu sɛ mene Otumfo Awurade no.’”
and thei schulen no more be to the hous of Israel in trist, techinge wickidnesse, that thei fle, and sue hem; and thei schulen knowe, that Y am the Lord God.
17 Mfe aduonu ason so, ɔsram a edi kan no da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:
And it was don in the seuene and twentithe yeer, in the firste monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,
18 “Onipa ba, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne nʼasraafo tuu Tiro so sa abran so, eti biara so pepae, na ɔbati nso so popɔree. Nanso ɔne nʼasraafo no annya hwee amfi adwumaden a wɔyɛ de tiaa Tiro no mu.
and he seide, Thou, sone of man, Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, made his oost to serue bi greet seruyce ayens Tire; ech heed was maad ballid, and ech schuldir was maad bare of heer, and meede was not yoldun of Tire to hym, nether to his oost, for the seruyce bi which he seruede to me ayens it.
19 Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede Misraim rebɛhyɛ Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar nsa na ɔbɛsoa nʼahode akɔ. Ɔbɛfom asase no de ayɛ akatua ama nʼasraafo.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal yyue Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, in the lond of Egipt, and he schal take the multitude therof; and he schal take in preye the clothis therof, and he schal rauysche the spuylis therof, and meede schal be to his oost,
20 Mede Misraim ama no sɛ nʼadwumayɛ so akatua, efisɛ ɔne nʼakofo yɛ maa me, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
and to the werk for which he seruyde to me ayens it; and Y yaf the lond of Egipt to hym, for that that he trauelide to me, seith the Lord God.
21 “Saa da no mɛma abɛn bi afifi ama Israelfi, na mebue wʼano wɔ wɔn mu. Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
In that dai an horn of the hous of Israel schal come forth, and Y schal yyue to thee an open mouth in the myddis of hem; and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
