Hesekiel 39
1 “Onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm tia Gog na ka se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Me ne wo anya. Gog, Mesek ne Tubal obirɛmpɔn.
And thou, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O Gog, Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal,
2 Mekyinkyim wo na matwe wʼase. Mede wo befi atifi fam nohɔ tɔnn na mede aba Israel mmepɔw so.
And have turned thee back, and enticed thee, And caused thee to come up from the sides of the north, And brought thee in against mountains of Israel,
3 Afei, mɛbɔ wo bɛmma afi wo nsa benkum mu na mama wʼagyan afi wo nsa nifa mu agu fam.
And have smitten thy bow out of thy left hand, Yea, thine arrows out of thy right I cause to fall.
4 Wo ne wʼasraafo nyinaa ne aman a wɔka wo ho no bɛtotɔ wɔ Israel mmepɔw so. Mede wo bɛma nnomaa ahorow a wɔpɛ nea aporɔw ne wuram mmoa sɛ wɔn aduan.
On mountains of Israel thou fallest, Thou, and all thy bands, and the peoples who [are] with thee, To ravenous fowl — a bird of every wing, And [to] a beast of the field, I have given thee for food.
5 Mobɛtotɔ wɔ mfuw so, efisɛ makasa, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
On the face of the field thou fallest, for I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
6 Mɛtɔ ogya agu Magog so ne wɔn a wɔtete hɔ asomdwoe mu wɔ mpoano nsase so no na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.
And I have sent a fire against Magog, And against the confident inhabitants of the isles, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.
7 “‘Mɛma me nkurɔfo Israelfo ahu me din kronkron wɔ wɔn mu na meremma ho kwan ma wonngu me din kronkron no ho fi na aman no behu sɛ me Awurade mene Ɔkronkronni no wɔ Israel.
And My holy name I make known in the midst of My people Israel, And I pollute not My holy name any more, And known have the nations that I, Jehovah, the Holy One, [am] in Israel.
8 Ɛreba! na ampa ara ebesi, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni. Da a maka ho asɛm no ni.
Lo, it hath come, and it hath been done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, It [is] the day of which I spake.
9 “‘Afei wɔn a wɔtete Israel nkurow so befi adi na wɔde akode no bɛsɔ gya, akokyɛm nketewa ne akɛse, bɛmma ne agyan, nkontimmaa ne mpeaw. Wɔde bɛyɛ nnyina asɔ gya mfe ason.
And gone out have the inhabitants of cities of Israel, And they have burned and kindled [a fire], With armour, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand-staves, and with javelins, And they have caused a fire to burn with them seven years,
10 Ɛrenhia sɛ wɔbɛkɔ anyan wɔ mfuw so anaasɛ wɔbɛpɛ bi wɔ kwae mu, efisɛ wɔde akode no bɛsɔ gya. Na wɔbɛsɛe wɔn a wɔsɛe wɔn nneɛma no nneɛma na wɔafom wɔn a wɔfom wɔn nneɛma no nso nneɛma, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
And they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For with armour they cause the fire to burn, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
11 “‘Saa da no, mɛyɛ amusiei wɔ Israel ama Gog, wɔ obon a ɛda baabi a wɔn a wotu kwan kɔ apuei fam wɔ po no ho no fa no. Ebesiw akwantufo kwan efisɛ wobesie Gog ne ne dɔm no wɔ hɔ. Ɛno nti wɔbɛfrɛ hɔ se Hamon Gog bon.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, I give to Gog a place there — a grave in Israel, the valley of those passing by, east of the sea, and it is stopping those passing by, and they have buried there Gog, and all his multitude, and have cried, O valley of the multitude of Gog!
12 “‘Na Israelfi de asram ason besie wɔn de adwira asase no.
And the house of Israel have buried them — in order to cleanse the land — seven months.
13 Nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so besie wɔn na da a wɔbɛhyɛ me anuonyam no bɛyɛ nkaeda ama wɔn, Otumfo Awurade na ose.
Yea, all the people of the land have buried them, and it hath been to them for a name — the day of My being honoured — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
14 Wɔbɛkɔ so afa nnipa ama wɔatew asase no ho. Ebinom bɛfa asase no so nyinaa, na ebinom nso asie wɔn a wɔda so gugu asase no so no. “‘Asram ason akyi no wɔbɛhwehwɛ asase no so yiye.
And men for continual employment they separate, passing on through the land, burying with those passing by those who are left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it: at the end of seven months they search.
15 Bere a wɔrekyinkyin asase no so no, sɛ wɔn mu bi hu onipa dompe a, ɔbɛhyɛ hɔ agyirae akosi sɛ asieifo bɛfa akosie wɔ Hamon Gog bon no mu.
And those passing by have passed through the land, and seen a bone of man, and one hath constructed near it a sign till those burying have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.
16 (Kurow bi bɛba hɔ a ne din de Hamona). Na sɛɛ na wobedwira asase no.’
And also the name of the city [is] The multitude; and they have cleansed the land.
17 “Onipa ba, sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Frɛ nnomaa ahorow ne wuram mmoadoma nyinaa na ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Mommoaboa mo ho ano mfi mmeaemmeae mmra afɔrebɔ a meresiesie ama mo no ase, afɔrebɔ kɛse wɔ Israel mmepɔw so. Hɔ na mubedi nam na moanom mogya.
And thou, son of man, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Say to the bird — every wing, and to every beast of the field: Be assembled and come in, Be gathered from round about, For My sacrifice that I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrifice on mountains of Israel, And ye have eaten flesh, and drunk blood.
18 Mobɛwe dɔmmarima nam wɔ hɔ na moanom asase so mmapɔmma mogya te sɛ nea wɔyɛ adwennini ne nguantenmma, mpapo ne anantwinini a wɔn nyinaa yɛ Basan nyɛmmoa a wɔadodɔ srade.
Flesh of the mighty ye do eat, And blood of princes of the earth ye drink, Of rams, of lambs, and of he-goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan — all of them.
19 Afɔre a meresiesie ama mo no, mubedi srade akosi sɛ mobɛyɛ pintinn na moanom mogya akosi sɛ mobɛbobow.
And ye have eaten fat to satiety, And ye have drunk blood — to drunkenness, Of My sacrifice that I sacrificed for you.
20 Mobɛwe apɔnkɔ ne sotefo, dɔmmarima ne asraafo ahorow nyinaa nam amee wɔ me pon so,’ Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
And ye have been satisfied at My table with horse and rider, Mighty man, and every man of war, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
21 “Mɛda mʼanuonyam adi wɔ amanaman no mu na wɔn nyinaa behu asotwe ne nsa a mede ato wɔn so no.
And I have given My honour among nations, And seen have all the nations My Judgment that I have done, And My hand that I have laid on them.
22 Efi saa da no rekɔ, Israelfi behu sɛ mene Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn no.
And known have the house of Israel that I [am] Jehovah their God, From that day and henceforth.
23 Na amanaman no behu sɛ Israelfo kɔɔ nkoasom mu wɔn bɔne nti, efisɛ wɔanni me nokware. Ɛno nti mede mʼanim hintaw wɔn, na mede wɔn hyɛɛ wɔn atamfo nsa na wɔn nyinaa totɔɔ wɔ afoa ano.
And known have the nations that for their iniquity, Removed have the house of Israel, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I do hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword — all of them.
24 Mene wɔn dii no sɛnea wɔn ho fi ne wɔn mfomso te, mede mʼanim hintaw wɔn.
According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I do hide My face from them.
25 “Ɛno nti sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mede Yakob befi nkoasom mu aba na manya ahummɔbɔ ama Israelfo nyinaa, na mɛtwe me din kronkron no ho ninkunu.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Now do I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy name.
26 Wɔn werɛ befi wɔn animguase ne nokware a wɔanni me bere a na wɔte hɔ asomdwoe mu wɔ wɔn asase so a obiara nhunahuna wɔn no.
And they have forgotten their shame, And all their trespass that they trespassed against Me, In their dwelling on their land confidently and none troubling.
27 Sɛ mede wɔn fi amanaman no so san ba na meboaboa wɔn ano fi wɔn atamfo nsase so a, mɛfa wɔn so ada me kronkronyɛ adi wɔ amanaman no nyinaa ani so.
In My bringing them back from the peoples, I have assembled them from the lands of their enemies, And I have been sanctified in them before the eyes of the many nations,
28 Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn no, efisɛ ɛwɔ mu sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ nnommum mu wɔ amanaman no mu de, nanso mɛboaboa wɔn ano akɔ wɔn ankasa asase so a merennyaw wɔn mu biara wɔ akyi.
And they have known that I [am] Jehovah their God, In My removing them unto the nations, And I have gathered them unto their land, And I leave none of them any more there.
29 Meremfa mʼanim nhintaw wɔn bio, efisɛ mehwie me Honhom agu Israelfi so, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
And I hide not any more My face from them, In that I have poured out My spirit on the house of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
