Yesaia 10
1 Wonnue, wɔn a wɔhyɛ mmara a ɛmfa ne kwan mu, wɔn a wɔhyɛ mmara dennen a ɛde nhyɛso ba,
Wo to them that maken wickid lawis, and thei writynge han wryte vnriytfulnesse, for to oppresse pore men in doom,
2 de siw ahiafo ahofadi ho kwan, de atɛntrenee bɔ me nkurɔfo a wɔhyɛ wɔn so no atirimɔden. Wɔma akunafo yɛ amanehunufo na wɔbɔ ayisaa korɔn.
and to do violence to the cause of meke men of my puple; that widewis schulen be the prey of them, and that thei schulden rauysche fadirles children.
3 Dɛn na mobɛyɛ wɔ akontaabu da no, bere a amanehunu fi akyirikyiri reba? Hena nkyɛn na mubeguan akɔpɛ mmoa? Ɛhefa na mubegyaw mo ahode?
What schulen ye do in the dai of visitacioun, and of wretchidnesse comynge fro fer? To whos help schulen ye fle? and where schulen ye leeue youre glorie,
4 Ɛrenka mo hwee sɛ mobɛfra nneduafo mu anaasɛ mobɛtotɔ wɔ atɔfo mu. Nanso eyinom nyinaa akyi no ne bo nnwoo ɛ, na ne nsa da so wɔ soro.
that ye be not bowid doun vndur boond, and falle not doun with slayn men? On alle these thingis his strong veniaunce is not turned awei, but yit his hond is stretchid forth.
5 “Nnome nka Asiriani no, mʼabufuw abaa, nea okura mʼabufuwhyew pema no!
Wo to Assur, he is the yerde and staf of my strong veniaunce; myn indignacioun is in the hond of them.
6 Mesoma no akɔ ɔman a wonnim Onyankopɔn so migya no kwan ma wakɔ nnipa a wɔhyɛ me abufuw so sɛ wonkogye akorɔnne abran so na wonhuam afowde, na wontiatia wɔn so sɛ dɔte wɔ mmɔnten so.
Y schal send hym to a fals folk, and Y schal comaunde to hym ayens the puple of my strong veniaunce; that he take awei the spuylis, and departe prey, and that he sette that puple in to defouling, as the fen of stretis.
7 Nanso ɛnyɛ eyi ne nea ɔpɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɛnyɛ eyi ne nea ɛwɔ nʼadwene mu; ne botae ne sɛ ɔbɛsɛe, sɛ ɔde aman bebree bɛba wɔn awiei.
Forsothe he schal not deme so, and his herte schal not gesse so, but his herte schal be for to al to-breke, and to the sleynge of many folkis.
8 Na obisa se, ‘Ahemfo nyinaa nyɛ mʼasahene ana?
For he schal seie, Whether my princes ben not kyngis to gidere?
9 Kalno nyɛɛ sɛ Karkemis ana? Hamat nte sɛ Arpad na Samaria nte sɛ Damasko ana?
Whether not as Carcamys, so Calanno; and as Arphat, so Emath? whether not as Damask, so Samarie?
10 Sɛnea migyee ahoni ahenni ahorow abran so, ahenni a wɔn nsɛsode sen nea ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Samaria no.
As myn hond foond the rewmes of idol, so and the symylacris of hem of Jerusalem and of Samarie.
11 Merentumi ne Yerusalem ne ne nsɛsode nni, sɛnea me ne Samaria ne nʼahoni dii no?’”
Whether not as Y dide to Samarie, and to the idols therof, so Y schal do to Jerusalem, and to the simylacris therof?
12 Sɛ Awurade wie nʼadwuma a etia Bepɔw Sion ne Yerusalem nyinaa a, ɔbɛka se, “Mɛtwe Asiriahene aso wɔ ne komapirim ne nʼani a ɛnsɔ ade no ho.
And it schal be, whanne the Lord hath fillid alle hise werkis in the hil of Syon and in Jerusalem, Y schal visite on the fruit of the greet doynge herte of the kyng of Assur, and on the glorie of the hiynesse of hise iyen.
13 Efisɛ ɔka se, “‘Mede mʼahoɔden na ayɛ eyi, na mifi me nyansa mu, efisɛ mewɔ nimdeɛ. Mesɛee aman aman ahye, mefow wɔn ademude; mebrɛɛ wɔn ahemfo ase te sɛ ɔbran.
For he seide, Y haue do in the strengthe of myn honde, and Y haue understonde in my wisdom; and Y haue take awei the endis of peplis, and Y haue robbid the princes of them, and Y as a myyti man haue drawun doun them that saten an hiy.
14 Sɛnea obi teɛ ne nsa hyɛ berebuw mu no, saa ara nso na mɛteɛ me nsa wɔ amanaman no ahonyade so; sɛnea wɔtase nkesua a wɔagyaw hɔ no, saa ara na mɛboaboa amanaman no nyinaa ano; obiara ammɔ ne ntaban mu, na wammue nʼano ansu.’”
And myn hond foond the strengthe of puplis as a nest, and as eirun ben gaderid togidere that ben forsakun, so Y gaderid togidere al erthe; and noon was that mouyde a fethere, and openyde the mouth, and grutchide.
15 Abonnua ma ne ho so tra nea ɔtow, anaasɛ ɔwan hoahoa ne ho kyɛn nea ɔde no yɛ adwuma ana? Ayɛ te sɛnea abaa tumi dannan nea ɔmaa no so, anaasɛ poribaa tumi hinhim nea ɔnyɛ dua!
Whether an ax schal haue glorie ayens hym that kittith with it? ether a sawe schal be enhaunsid ayens hym of whom it is drawun? as if a yerde is reisid ayens hym that reisith it, and a staf is enhaunsid, which sotheli is a tre.
16 Afei Awurade, Asafo Awurade, de ɔyaredɔm bɛbɔ nʼakofo ahoɔdenfo no; ne kɛseyɛ mu wobefita ogya mu ama adɛw te sɛ gyaframa.
For this thing the lordli gouernour, Lord of oostis, schal sende thinnesse in the fatte men of hym, and his glorie kyndlid vndur schal brenne as `the brenning of fier.
17 Israel Hann no bɛdan ogya. Wɔn Kronkronni no bɛyɛ ogya a ɛdɛw; ɔde da koro bɛhyew na wasɛe ne nsɔe ne nnɛnkyɛnse.
And the liyt of Israel schal be in fier, and the hooli of it in flawme; and the thorn of him and brere schal be kyndlid and deuourid in o dai.
18 Ne kwae ne nʼasasebere anuonyam no, ɛbɛsɛe pasapasa te sɛ ɔyarefo a ɔrefɔn.
And the glorie of his forest and of his Carmele schal be wastid, fro the soule `til to fleisch; and he schal be fleynge awei for drede.
19 Nnua a ɛbɛka wɔ ne kwae mu bɛyɛ kakraa bi a abofra betumi akyerɛ ne dodow.
And the relifs of the tree of his forest schulen be noumbrid for fewnesse, and a child schal write hem.
20 Da no, Israel nkae, Yakob fifo a wɔbɛka no, remfa wɔn ho nto no so bio nea ɔbɔɔ wɔn hwee fam no; na mmom wɔde wɔn ho bɛto Awurade so nokware mu, Israel Kronkronni no.
And it schal be in that dai, the remenaunt of Israel, and thei that fledden of the house of Jacob, schal not adde for to triste on hym that smytith hem; but it schal triste on the hooli Lord of Israel, in treuthe.
21 Nkae bi bɛsan aba, Yakob nkae bi bɛsan aba Otumfo Onyankopɔn no nkyɛn.
The relifs, Y seie, the relifs of Jacob, schulen be conuertid to the stronge Lord.
22 Israel, ɛwɔ mu sɛ wo nkurɔfo dɔɔso sɛ mpoano nwea de, nanso nkae bi pɛ na wɔbɛsan. Wɔahyɛ ɔsɛe ho mmara dennen a ebebunkam so na ɛteɛ.
Forwhi, Israel, if thi puple is as the grauel of the see, the relifs schulen be turned therof; an endyng maad schort schal make riytfulnesse to be plenteuouse.
23 Awurade, Asafo Awurade de ɔsɛe a wɔahyɛ ho mmara ketee na ɛbɛba asase no so nyinaa.
For whi the Lord God of oostis schal make an endyng and a breggyng in the myddis of al erthe.
24 Enti sɛɛ na Awurade, Asafo Awurade se, “Me nkurɔfo a mote Sion, munnsuro Asiriafo no, wɔn a wɔde mmaa hwe mo na wɔma kontibaa so tia mo, sɛnea Misraim yɛe no.
For this thing the Lord God of oostis seith these thingis, My puple, the dwellere of Sion, nyle thou drede of Assur, for he schal smite thee in a yerde, and he schal reise his staf on thee in the weie of Egipt.
25 Ɛrenkyɛ koraa mʼabufuw a etia mo no ano bedwo na mʼanibere bɛkɔ wɔn sɛe so.”
Forwhi yit a litil, and a litil, and myn indignacioun and my strong veniaunce schal be endid on the greet trespas of hem.
26 Asafo Awurade de mpire bɛhwe wɔn, sɛnea ɔbɔɔ Midian hwee fam wɔ Oreb Ɔbotan ho no; na ɔbɛteɛ ne pema wɔ nsu no so, sɛnea ɔyɛɛ wɔ Misraim no.
And the Lord of oostis schal reise a scourge on hym bi the veniaunce of Madian in the stoon of Oreb, and bi his yerde on the see; and he schal reise that yerde in the wei of Egipt.
27 Da no wobeyi wɔn adesoa no afi wɔn mmati so wɔn konnua afi wo kɔn mu; wobubu konnua no efisɛ woayɛ ɔbran yiye.
And it schal be in that dai, his birthun schal be takun awei fro thi schuldre, and his yok fro thi necke; and the yok schal wexe rotun fro the face of oile.
28 Wɔhyɛn Ayat; wɔfa Migron; na wɔkora wɔn nneɛma wɔ Mikmas.
He schal come in to Aioth, he schal passe in to Magron, at Magynas he schal bitake his vessels to kepyng.
29 Wɔfaa ɔtempɔn no so, na wɔka se, “Yɛbɛwɛn wɔ Geba anadwo yi.” Rama ho popo; Saulo kurow Gibea nso guan.
Thei passiden swiftli, Gabaa is oure seete, Rama was astonyed, Gabaa of Saul fled.
30 Teɛ mu, Galim Babea! Tie, Laisa! Anatot Mmɔborɔni!
Thou douytir of Gallym, weile with thi vois; thou Laisa, perseyue, thou pore Anatot.
31 Madmena reguan; Gebimfo kɔtetɛw.
Medemena passide; the dwelleris of Gabyn fledden; be ye coumfortid.
32 Nnɛ ara wobegyina wɔ Nob; wobehim wɔn nsa wɔ Ɔbabea Sion bepɔw no so, wɔ Yerusalem koko no so.
Yit it is dai, that me stonde in Nobe; he schal dryue his hond on the hil of the douyter of Syon, on the litil hil of Jerusalem.
33 Hwɛ, Awurade, Asafo Awurade no, ɔde tumi kɛse betwitwa dua mman no. Wobebubu nnua atenten no agu fam nea ɛwowaree no bɛba fam.
Lo! the lordli gouernour, the Lord of oostis, schal breke a potel in drede, and hiy men of stature schulen be kit doun.
34 Ɔde abonnua betwitwa kwaedɔtɔ agu fam Lebanon bɛhwe ase wɔ Ɔkɛse no anim.
And proude men schulen be maade low, and the thicke thingis of the forest schulen be distried bi irun; and the Liban with hiy thingis schal falle doun.
