Yesaia 15
1 Adehu a ɛfa Moab ho: Wɔasɛe Ar a ɛwɔ Moab Da koro anadwo bi, wɔasɛe Kir a ɛwɔ Moab da koro anadwo bi!
The burden of Moab: for in a night, Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing; for in a night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing.
2 Dibon foro kɔ nʼasɔredan mu, ɔkɔ ne sorɔnsorɔmmea kosu; Moab twa adwo wɔ Nebo ne Medeba ho. Wɔayi eti biara so nwi na abogyesɛ biara nso wɔatwitwa.
They have gone up to the temple, and to Dibon, to the high places to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba. On every head is baldness. Every beard is cut off.
3 Wofurafura atweaatam wɔ mmɔnten so; wɔ adan atifi ne ɔman ahyiae wɔn nyinaa retwa adwo, wɔdeda fam na wosu.
In their streets, they dress themselves in sackcloth; on their roofs and in their squares, everyone wails, weeping abundantly.
4 Hesbon ne Eleale teɛ mu su, wɔte wɔn nne kodu Yahas nohɔ. Enti Moab mmarima akofo teɛ mu su, na wɔbotobotow.
Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them.
5 Midi Moab ho awerɛhow wɔ me koma mu; nʼaguanfo guan kodu Soar, ne Eglat Selisiya. Wɔforo kɔ Luhit, wɔrekɔ nyinaa na wɔresu; Horonaim kwan so nso wodi wɔn sɛe ho awerɛhow.
My heart cries out for Moab. Her Nazirites flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for in the way of Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
6 Nimrim nsuwansuwa ayoyow na sare no ahyew afifide nyinaa ayera na ɛnkaa wura biara a ɛyɛ amono.
For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing.
7 Enti ahonyade a wɔapɛ agu hɔ no wɔsoa de kotwa mpampuro bon.
Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the Brook of the Willows.
8 Wɔn nkekawmu gyigye wɔ Moab ahye so; wɔn agyaadwotwa kodu Eglaim na wɔn abubuwbɔ kodu Beer Elim.
For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing as far as Eglaim, and its wailing as far as Beer Elim.
9 Dimon nsu ayɛ mogya nko ara nanso mɛkɔ so ne no adi gyata bɛba Moab aguanfo so ne wɔn a wɔbɛka asase no so no so.
For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; for I will bring yet more on Dibon, a lion on those of Moab who escape, and on the remnant of the land.
