Yesaia 29
1 Due wo Ariel, Ariel, kuropɔn a Dawid tenaa mu! Fa afe ka afe ho na ma wo mfirihyia mu afahyɛ ahorow no nkɔ so.
Wo! Ariel, Ariel, the citee which Dauid ouercam; yeer is addid to yeer, solempnytees ben passyd.
2 Nanso metua Ariel ano; obedi awerɛhow na wato kwadwom, ɔbɛyɛ sɛ afɔremuka so gya.
And Y schal cumpasse Ariel, and it schal be soreuful and morenynge; and Jerusalem schal be to me as Ariel.
3 Mede dɔm betwa wo ho ahyia; mesisi abantenten atwa wo ho ahyia na madi ntuano dwuma atia wo.
And Y schal cumpasse as a round trendil in thi cumpasse, and Y schal caste erthe ayens thee, and Y schal sette engynes in to thi bisegyng.
4 Wɔasie wo no, wobɛkasa afi asase mu; wo kasa a mu ntew no befi mfutuma mu aba. Wo nne befi asase no mu aba te sɛ ɔsaman de; wo kasa befi mfutuma mu aka asomsɛm.
Thou schalt be maad low, thou schalt speke of erthe, and thi speche schal be herd fro the erthe; and thi vois schal be as the vois of a deed man reisid bi coniuring, and thi speche schal ofte grutche of the erthe.
5 Nanso wʼatamfo bebrebe no bɛyɛ sɛ mfutuma muhumuhu, na atirimɔdenfo bebrebe no ayɛ sɛ ntɛtɛ a mframa abɔ. Ɛbɛba prɛko pɛ, amono mu hɔ ara.
And the multitude of hem that wyndewen thee, schal be as thynne dust; and the multitude of hem that hadden the maistrie ayens thee, schal be as a deed sparcle passynge.
6 Asafo Awurade bɛba. Ɔde aprannaa ne asasewosow ne huuyɛ kɛse, mframahweam ne ahum ne ogyaframa a ɛhyew ade bɛba.
And it schal be sudenli, anoon it schal be visitid of the Lord of oostis, in thundur, and in mouyng of the erthe, and in greet vois of whirlwynd, and of tempest, and of flawme of fier deuowrynge.
7 Afei amanaman bebrebe a wotu Ariel so sa nyinaa, wɔn a wɔtow hyɛ ɔne nʼaban so na wotua nʼano no, ɛbɛyɛ wɔn sɛ adaeso, anaa anadwo mu anisoadehu.
And the multitude of alle folkis that fouyten ayens Ariel schal be as the dreem of a nyytis visioun; and alle men that fouyten, and bisegiden, and hadden the maistrie ayens it.
8 Sɛnea obi a ɔkɔm de no so dae sɛ ɔredidi, na sɛ onyan a ɔte sɛ ɔkɔm de no no; sɛnea obi a osukɔm de no so dae sɛ ɔrenom nsu, nanso onyan a na watɔ beraw, na osukɔm de no ara no. Saa ara na ɛbɛyɛ ama amanaman dodow a wɔko tia Bepɔw Sion no.
And as an hungry man dremyth, and etith, but whanne he is awakid, his soule is voide; and as a thirsti man dremeth, and drynkith, and after that he is awakid, he is weri, and thirstith yit, and his soule is voide, so schal be the multitude of alle folkis, that fouyten ayens the hil of Sion.
9 Mo ho nnwiriw mo na ɛnyɛ mo nwonwa, mo ani mfura a munhu ade; mommobow a emfi nsa, montotɔ ntintan a emfi bobesa.
Be ye astonyed, and wondre; wake ye, and douyte ye; be ye drunken, and not of wyn; be ye moued, and not with drunkenesse.
10 Awurade de nnahɔɔ ato mo so: Wakata mo ani (adiyifo no); wakata mo ti so (adehufo no).
For the Lord hath meddlid to you the spirit of sleep; he schal close youre iyen, and schal hile youre profetis, and princes that sien visiouns.
11 Mo de, saa anisoadehu yi nyinaa nka hwee mma mo, ɛte sɛ nsɛm a wɔasɔw ano wɔ nhoma mmobɔwee mu. Sɛ mode nhoma mmobɔwee no ma obi a, otumi kenkan, na moka kyerɛ no se, “Mesrɛ wo kenkan eyi” a, obebua se, “Merentumi, efisɛ wɔasɔw ano.”
And the visioun of alle profetis schal be to you as the wordis of a book aseelid; which whanne thei schulen yyue to hym that kan lettris, thei schulen seie, Rede thou this book; and he schal answere, Y may not, for it is aseelid.
12 Sɛ nso, mode nhoma mmobɔwee no ma nea onnim akenkan, na moka kyerɛ no se, “Mesrɛ wo kenkan eyi” a, obebua se, “Minnim akenkan.”
And the book schal be youun to him that kan not lettris, and it schal be seid to hym, Rede thou; and he schal answere, Y kan no lettris.
13 Awurade ka se, “Saa nnipa yi de anohunu twiw bɛn me na wɔde wɔn anofafa hyɛ me anuonyam, nanso wɔn koma mmɛn me. Som a wɔsom me no yɛ mmara a nnipa akyerɛ wɔn no nko ara.
And the Lord seide, For that this puple neiyeth with her mouth, and glorifieth me with her lippis, but her herte is fer fro me; and thei dredden me for the comaundement and techyngis of men, therfor lo!
14 Enti mɛma nnipa yi ho adwiriw wɔn bio mede anwonwade ntoatoaso bɛyɛ; mɛsɛe anyansafo nyansa, na mɛma nimdefo adenim ayɛ ɔkwa.”
Y schal adde, that Y make wondryng to this puple, in a greet myracle and wondurful; for whi wisdom schal perische fro wise men therof, and the vndurstondyng of prudent men therof schal be hid.
15 Wonnue, wɔn a wɔyɛ biribiara sɛ wɔde wɔn atirimpɔw behintaw Awurade, wɔn a wɔyɛ wɔn nnwuma wɔ sum ase na wosusuw sɛ, “Hena na ohu yɛn? Hena na ɔbɛte ase?”
Wo to you that ben hiye of herte, that ye hide counsel fro the Lord; the werkis of whiche ben in derknessis, and thei seien, Who seeth vs, and who knowith vs?
16 Musisi nneɛma ti ase, sɛnea modwene sɛ ɔnwemfo te sɛ dɔte no! Nea wayɛ betumi aka akyerɛ nea ɔyɛe no se, “Ɛnyɛ wo na woyɛɛ me ana”? Kuku betumi aka afa ɔnwemfo ho se “Onnim hwee ana”?
This thouyt of you is weiward, as if cley thenke ayens a pottere, and the werk seie to his makere, Thou madist not me; and a thing `that is maad, seie to his makere, Thou vndurstondist not.
17 Ɛrenkyɛ koraa, wɔrennan Lebanon nyɛ no asasebere na asasebere no nso nyɛ sɛ kwae ana?
Whether not yit in a litil time and schort the Liban schal be turned in to Chermel, and Chermel schal be arettid in to the forest?
18 Saa da no, ɔsotifo bɛte nsɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu na kusuuyɛ ne esum mu mpo onifuraefo ani behu ade.
And in that dai deef men schulen here the wordis of the book, and the iyen of blynde men schulen se fro derknessis and myisty;
19 Ahobrɛasefo bedi ahurusi wɔ Awurade mu bio; ahiafo ho bɛsɛpɛw wɔn wɔ Israel Ɔkronkronni no mu.
and mylde men schulen encreesse gladnesse in the Lord, and pore men schulen make ful out ioie in the hooli of Israel.
20 Atutuwpɛfo bɛyera, wɔrenhu fɛwdifo bio, na wɔn a wodwen bɔne nyinaa, wobetwa wɔn agu,
For he that hadde the maistrie, failide, and the scornere is endid, and alle thei ben kit doun that walkiden on wickidnesse;
21 wɔn a wɔka asɛm baako ma obi di fɔ, wɔn a wosum nea ɔreyi ne ho ano afiri wɔ asennii na wodi adansekurum ma wobu nea odi bem no fɔ no nso wobetwa wɔn agu.
whiche maden men to do synne in word, and disseyueden a repreuere in the yate, and bowiden awey in veyn fro a iust man.
22 Enti sɛɛ na Awurade a ogyee Abraham nkwa no ka kyerɛ Yakob fifo: “Yakob anim rengu ase bio; wɔn anim rehoa bio.
For this thing the Lord, that ayen bouyte Abraham, seith these thingis to the hous of Jacob, Jacob schal not be confoundid now, nether now his cheer schal be aschamed; but whanne he schal se hise sones,
23 Sɛ wohu wɔn mma wɔ wɔn mu, wɔn a wɔyɛ me nsa ano adwuma no a wɔbɛyɛ me din no kronkron; wobegye Yakob ɔkronkronni no kronkronyɛ ato mu, na wɔde fɛre agyina Israel Nyankopɔn no anim.
the werkis of myn hondis, halewynge my name in the myddis of hym. And thei schulen halewe the hooli of Jacob, and thei schulen preche God of Israel;
24 Wɔn a wɔfom kwan wɔ honhom mu benya ntease; wɔn a wonwiinwii nso begye nkyerɛkyerɛ ato mu.”
and thei that erren in spirit, schulen knowe vndurstondyng, and idil men schulen lerne the lawe.
