Hesekiel 32

1 Mfe dumien mu, ɔsram a ɛto so dumien no da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:

And in the twelfth yeere in the twelfth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

2 “Onipa ba, to kwadwom fa Misraimhene Farao ho na ka kyerɛ no se: “‘Wote sɛ gyata wɔ aman no mu: wote sɛ po mu aboa a ne ho yɛ hu wububu dikyi wɔ wo nsuten mu, wode wo nan boro nsuten no de fono nsu no.

Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation for Pharaoh King of Egypt, and say vnto him, Thou art like a lyon of the nations and art as a dragon in the sea: thou castedst out thy riuers and troubledst the waters with thy feete, and stampedst in their riuers.

3 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Mede dɔm bɛba abɛtow mʼasau agu wo so, na wɔbɛtwe wo afi mʼasau mu.

Thus sayth the Lord God, I will therefore spread my net ouer thee with a great multitude of people, and they shall make thee come vp into my net.

4 Mɛtow wo akyene asase no so na mahiri wo ato sare so. Mɛma wim nnomaa nyinaa abesisi wo so na asase so mmoa nyinaa adi wo nam afrɛ so.

Then will I leaue thee vpon the land, and I will cast thee vpon the open field, and I wil cause all the foules of the heauen to remaine vpon thee, and I will fill all the beastes of the field with thee.

5 Mɛhata wo nam wɔ mmepɔw no so na mede wo funu ahyɛ aku ma.

And I will lay thy flesh vpon the mountaines, and fill the valleys with thine height.

6 Mede wo mogya a ɛresen no afɔw asase no de akɔka mmepɔw no na wo nam bɛhyɛ abon nketewa no ma.

I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, euen to ye mountaines, and the riuers shall be full of thee.

7 Sɛ mitwa wo fi hɔ a, mɛkata ɔsoro ani na madunnum wɔn nsoromma; mede omununkum bɛkata owia ani, na ɔsram renhyerɛn.

And when I shall put thee out, I will couer the heauen, and make the starres thereof darke: I will couer the sunne with a cloude, and the moone shall not giue her light.

8 Ɔsoro akanea a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa mɛma aduru sum wɔ wo so; mɛma sum aduru wʼasase, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

All the lightes of heauen will I make darke for thee, and bring darkenesse vpon thy lande, sayeth the Lord God.

9 Mɛma nnipa bebree koma atutu bere a mede wo sɛe aba aman no mu, nsase a wunnya nhuu mu.

I will also trouble the heartes of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations and vpon the countries which thou hast not knowen.

10 Mɛma nnipa bebree ho adwiriw wɔn wɔ wo ho, wo nti, hu bɛma wɔn ahene ho apopo bere a merehim mʼafoa wɔ wɔn anim no. Da a wobɛhwe ase no wɔn mu biara ho bɛwosow bere nyinaa mu wɔ wɔn nkwa nti.

Yea, I will make many people amased at thee, and their Kings shalbe astonished with feare for thee, when I shall make my sworde to glitter against their faces, and they shall be afraide at euery moment: euery man for his owne life in the day of thy fall.

11 “‘Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Babiloniahene afoa bɛsɔre wɔ wo so.

For thus sayth the Lord God, The sworde of the King of Babel shall come vpon thee.

12 Mɛma wo dɔm no atotɔ wɔ dɔmmarima afoa ano, wɔ aman a wɔyɛ anuɔdenfo mu. Wɔbɛsɛe Misraim ahomaso pasaa na ne dɔm no nyinaa bedi nkogu.

By the swordes of the mightie will I cause thy multitude to fall: they all shall be terrible nations, and they shall destroy the pompe of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shalbe consumed.

13 Mekunkum nʼanantwi nyinaa afi nsu bebree no ho na onipa nan rentiatia mu bio na anantwi tɔte nso remfono no.

I will destroy also all the beastes thereof from the great watersides, neither shall the foote of man trouble them any more, nor the hooues of beast trouble them.

14 Afei mɛma ne nsu ani atew na mama ne nsuten ateɛ sɛ ngo,

Then will I make their waters deepe, and cause their riuers to runne like oyle, sayeth the Lord God.

15 Sɛ mema Misraim da mpan na miyi biribiara fi asase no so, sɛ mikum wɔn a wɔte so nyinaa a, afei na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’

When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the countrey with all that is therein, shall be laid waste: when I shall smite all them which dwell therein, then shall they know that I am ye Lord.

16 “Eyi ne kwadwom a wɔbɛto ama no. Amanaman no mmabea bɛto ama Misraim ne ne dɔm nyinaa, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”

This is the mourning wherewith they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for Egypt, and for all her multitude, sayeth the Lord God.

17 Afe a ɛto so dumien no ne sram da a ɛto so dunum no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:

In the twelfth yeere also in the fifteenth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord vnto me, saying,

18 “Onipa ba, twa adwo ma Misraim dɔm na ma ɔne amanaman akɛse no mmabea nsian nkɔ asase ase nkɔka wɔn a wɔasian kɔ amoa mu no ho.

Sonne of man, lament for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them downe, euen them and the daughters of the mighty nations vnto the nether partes of the earth, with them that goe downe into the pit.

19 Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Wadom mo dodo sen wɔn a aka no ana? Munsian nkɔ na mo ne momonotofo no nkɔda.’

Whome doest thou passe in beautie? goe downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised.

20 Wɔbɛka wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no ho. Wɔatwe afoa no, ma wɔntwe ne nnipadɔm no ase nkɔ.

They shall fall in the middes of them that are slaine by the sword: shee is deliuered to the sword: draw her downe, and all her multitude.

21 Akannifo akɛse a wɔwɔ ɔda mu bɛka afa Misraim ne ne dɔm ho se, ‘Wɔasian aba na wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no.’ (Sheol h7585)

The most mighty and strong shall speake to him out of the mids of hell with them that helpe her: they are gone downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised that be slaine by the sworde. (Sheol h7585)

22 “Asiria ne nʼasraafo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔn a wɔakunkum wɔn no nna atwa ne ho ahyia, wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no.

Asshur is there and all his companie: their graues are about him: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde.

23 Wɔn nna no wɔ amoa no ase tɔnn na nʼasraafo deda ne nna ho nyinaa. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so no nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano.

Whose graues are made in the side of the pit, and his multitude are rounde about his graue: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde, which caused feare to be in the land of the liuing.

24 “Elam wɔ hɔ, ne nnipadɔm nyinaa atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so nyinaa sian kɔɔ asase ase sɛ momonotofo. Wɔde wɔn animguase kɔka wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no ho.

There is Elam and all his multitude round about his graue: al they are slaine and fallen by the sword which are gone downe with the vncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused themselues to be feared in the land of the liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that are gone downe to the pit.

25 Wɔato mpa ama no wɔ atɔfo no mu, na ne dɔm atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Esiane sɛ wɔn ahunahuna trɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so no nti, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no nyinaa anim agu ase. Wɔadeda wɔn wɔ atɔfo no mu.

They haue made his bed in the mids of the slaine with al his multitude: their graues are round about him: all these vncircucised are slaine by the sworde: though they haue caused their feare in the land of ye liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that goe downe to the pitte: they are laide in the middes of them, that be slaine.

26 “Mesek ne Tubal wɔ hɔ a wɔn dɔm atwa wɔn nna ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano efisɛ wɔtrɛtrɛw wɔn ahunahuna mu wɔ ateasefo asase so.

There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude, their graues are round about them: al these vncircumcised were slaine by the sworde, though they caused their feare to be in ye land of the liuing.

27 Ɛnyɛ wɔn ne akofo momonotofo foforo a wɔatotɔ na wɔdeda hɔ no ana? Wɔn a wɔne wɔn akode sian kɔɔ nna mu na wɔn ti deda wɔn afoa so no. Wɔn amumɔyɛ so asotwe daa wɔn nnompe so, mmom saa akofo yi ahunahuna atrɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so. (Sheol h7585)

And they shall not lie with the valiant of the vncircumcised, that are fallen, which are gone down to the graue, with their weapons of warre, and haue laied their swords vnder their heads, but their iniquitie shalbe vpon their bones: because they were the feare of the mighty in the lande of the liuing. (Sheol h7585)

28 “Farao, wo nso wobebubu wo mu na woakɔda momonotofo mu, wo ne wɔn a wɔtotɔɔ wɔ afoa ano no.

Yea, thou shalt be broken in the middes of the vncircumcised, and lie with them that are slaine by the sworde.

29 “Edom wɔ hɔ, nʼahemfo ne ne mmapɔmma nyinaa deda wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no mu, wɔn tumi nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no.

There is Edom, his Kings, and all his princes, which with their strength are laied by them that were slaine by the sworde: they shall sleepe with the vncircumcised, and with them that goe downe to the pit.

30 “Mmapɔmma a wofi atifi fam nyinaa ne Sidonfo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔne atɔfo kɔɔ wɔ animguase mu, wɔn tumi a wɔde hunahuna no nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda hɔ sɛ momonotofo, wɔne wɔn a wokum wɔn wɔ afoa ano, na wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no asoa wɔn animguase.

There be al the princes of the North, with al the Zidonians, which are gone downe with the slaine, with their feare: they are ashamed of their strength, and the vncircumcised sleepe with them that be slaine by the sword, and beare their shame with them that goe downe to the pit.

31 “Farao, ɔne nʼasraafo nyinaa behu wɔn na ne werɛ bɛkyekye wɔ ne dɔm a wokunkum wɔn wɔ afoa ano no ho, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

Pharaoh shall see them, and hee shall be comforted ouer all his multitude: Pharaoh, and all his armie shall be slaine by the sword, saieth the Lord God.

32 Mmom me na memaa Farao ne ne nnipadɔm de ahunahuna trɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so de, nanso wɔbɛdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wɔde afoa kunkum wɔn, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”

For I haue caused my feare to be in the lande of the liuing: and he shall be laid in the mids of the vncircumcised with them, that are slaine by the sword, euen Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayeth the Lord God.
