Yesaia 11
1 Dua foforo bi befifi wɔ Yisai dunsin ho; efi ne ntin mu na Dubaa bi bɛsow aba.
Then shall spring forth a shoot from the stem of Jesse, And a sprout grow up from his roots.
2 Awurade Honhom bɛtena ne so, nyansa ne ntease Honhom, afotu ne tumi Honhom, nimdeɛ ne Awurade suro Honhom,
The spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon him, The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of the knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah,
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;
He shall take delight in the fear of Jehovah; He shall not judge by the sight of his eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of his ears.
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 with righteousness shall he judge the poor, And decide with equity for the afflicted of the land; He shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth; With the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
5 Trenee bɛyɛ nʼabɔso na nokwaredi ayɛ nʼabɔso.
Righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
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.
Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb, And the leopard shall lie down with the kid; The calf, and the young lion, and the fatling shall be 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.
The cow and the bear shall feed together, Together shall their young lie down, 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.
The suckling shall play upon the hole of the asp, And the near-weaned child lay his hand on the hiding-place of the basilisk.
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.
They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; For the land shall be full of the knowledge of Jehovah, As the waters cover the depths of the sea.
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.
In that day shall the shoot of Jesse stand as a banner to the nations, And to him shall the gentiles repair, And his dwelling-place 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.
In that day shall Jehovah the second time stretch forth his hand To recover the remnant of his people, That remaineth, from Assyria, and from Egypt, And from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Elam, And from Shinar, and from Hamath, And from the islands of the sea.
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.
He shall set up a banner to the nations, And gather the outcasts of Israel, And bring together the dispersed of Judah, From the four extremities of the earth.
13 Efraim anibere betu ayera, na wɔbɛsɛe Yuda atamfo. Efraim ani remmere Yuda bio, na Yuda nso rentan Efraim ani.
Then shall the jealousy of Ephraim depart, And the enmity in Judah be at an end; Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah, And Judah shall not contend with 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.
But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines at the sea; Together shall they plunder the children of the East; On Edom and Moab shall they lay their hand, And the sons of Ammon shall be subject to 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.
Then will Jehovah utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea, And shake his hand over the river with a mighty wind, And smite it into seven streams, So that men may go over 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 it shall be a highway for the remnant of the people, Which shall remain, from Assyria, As there was to Israel, When he came up from the land of Egypt.
