Yesaia 11

1 Dua foforo bi befifi wɔ Yisai dunsin ho; efi ne ntin mu na Dubaa bi bɛsow aba.

And there shall come forth a rod out of the root of Jesse, and a blossom shall come up from [his] root:

2 Awurade Honhom bɛtena ne so, nyansa ne ntease Honhom, afotu ne tumi Honhom, nimdeɛ ne Awurade suro Honhom,

and the Spirit of God shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and godliness shall fill him;

3 Na nʼani begye wɔ Awurade suro mu. Ɛnyɛ nea ɔde nʼani hu so na obegyina abu atɛn, anaa nea ɔde nʼaso bɛte so na obegyina asi gyinae;

the spirit of the fear of God. He shall not judge according to appearance, nor reprove according to report:

4 na mmom ɔde trenee bebu mmɔborɔfo atɛn, ɔde atɛntrenee besi gyinae ama asase so ahiafo. Ɔde nʼano abaa na ɛbɛbɔ asase; ɔde nʼanofafa home bekunkum amumɔyɛfo.

but he shall judge the cause of the lowly, and shall reprove the lowly of the earth: and he shall strike the earth with the word of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he destroy the ungodly one.

5 Trenee bɛyɛ nʼabɔso na nokwaredi ayɛ nʼabɔso.

And he shall have his loins girded with righteousness, and his sides clothed with truth.

6 Pataku ne oguamma bɛtena, ɔsebɔ ne abirekyi bɛda, nantwi ba ne gyata ne ne ba bɛbɔ mu; na abofra ketewa bi adi wɔn anim.

And the wolf shall feed with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the young calf and bull and lion shall feed together; and a little child shall lead them.

7 Nantwi ne sisi bɛbɔ mu adidi, wɔn mma bɛdeda faako, na gyata bɛwe wura te sɛ nantwi.

And the ox and bear shall feed together; and their young shall be together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

8 Akokoaa bedi agoru abɛn ɔprammiri amoa ano, na abofra ketewa de ne nsa ahyɛ ahurutoa bon mu.

And an infant shall put his hand on the holes of asps, and on the nest of young asps.

9 Wɔrenyɛ obi bɔne na wɔrensɛe ade wɔ me bepɔw Kronkron nyinaa so, na Awurade ho nimdeɛ bɛyɛ asase so ma sɛnea nsu ayɛ po ma no.

And they shall not hurt, nor shall they at all be able to destroy any one on my holy mountain: for the whole [world] is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as much water covers the seas.

10 Na da no, Yisai aseni bɛsɔre; nea ɔbɛsɔre abedi aman aman no so; ɔno na wɔn ani bɛda ne so, na nʼahomegyebea benya anuonyam.

And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, and his rest shall be glorious.

11 Saa da no, Awurade bɛma ne nsa so ne mprenu so de agye ne nkurɔfo a wɔaka afi Asiria, Misraim anafo fam, Misraim atifi fam, Kus, Elam, Babilonia, Hamat ne Po so asupɔw.

And it shall be in that day, [that] the Lord shall again show his hand, to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, which shall be left by the Assyrians, and [that] from Egypt, and from the country of Babylon, and from Ethiopia, and from the Elamites, and from the rising of the sun, and out of Arabia.

12 Ɔbɛma frankaa so ama aman no na wɔaboaboa Israelfo a wɔatwa wɔn asu no ano; Ɔbɛboaboa Yudafo a wɔahwete no ano afi asase ntwea anan no so.

And he shall lift up a standard for the nations, and he shall gather the lost ones of Israel, and he shall gather the dispersed of Juda from the four corners of the earth.

13 Efraim anibere betu ayera, na wɔbɛsɛe Yuda atamfo. Efraim ani remmere Yuda bio, na Yuda nso rentan Efraim ani.

And the envy of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the enemies of Juda shall perish: Ephraim shall not envy Juda, and Juda shall not afflict Ephraim.

14 Wobetwiw afa Filistia asiansian ahorow no so akɔ atɔe fam; na wɔbɛbɔ mu afow nnipa akɔ apuei fam. Wɔbɛfa Edom ne Moab, na Amonfo bɛhyɛ wɔn ase.

And they shall fly in the ships of the Philistines: they shall at the same time spoil the sea, and them [that come] from the east, and Idumea: and they shall lay their hands on Moab first; but the children of Ammon shall first obey [them.]

15 Awurade bɛma nsu a ɛwɔ Misraim Po no mu ayow korakora; ɔbɛma ne nsa mu mframa a mu yɛ hyew abɔ afa Asubɔnten Eufrate so. Ɔbɛpaapae mu ayɛ no nsuwansuwa ason sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obiara betumi ahyɛ mpaboa atwa.

And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and he shall lay his hand on the river with a strong wind, and he shall strike the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod.

16 Ɔtempɔn bi bɛda hɔ ama ne nkurɔfo nkae a wɔaka Asiria, sɛnea bi daa hɔ maa Israel bere a wofi Misraim bae no.

And there shall be a passage for my people that is left in Egypt: and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt.
