Yesaia 35

1 Nweatam ne asase a awo no ani begye; sare bedi ahurusi na ayɛ frɔmfrɔm. Te sɛ nhwiren no,

The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad thereat; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the lily.

2 ɛbɛpae ayɛ fɛfɛɛfɛ ebedi ahurusi na ɛde anigye ateɛ mu, wɔde Lebanon anuonyam bɛma no Karmel ne Saron ahoɔfɛ; wobehu Awurade anuonyam, yɛn Nyankopɔn tumi no.

It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice, yea, with joy and singing; the glory of the Lebanon shall be given unto it, the elegance of Carmel and Sharon; they indeed shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellency of our God.

3 Hyɛ nsa a emu agow no mu den, hyɛ nkotodwe a ahodwow no mu den;

Strengthen ye weak hands, and stumbling knees make ye firm.

4 Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔn koma atu no se, “Monhyɛ mo ho den, na munnsuro; mo Nyankopɔn bɛba, ɔde aweretɔ bɛba; ananmuhyɛ a efi ɔsoro bɛba abegye mo nkwa.”

Say to the timid of heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God, [with] vengeance will he come, with God's recompense; it is he who will come and save you.

5 Ɛno na wobebue anifuraefo ani, na wɔama asotifo aso ate asɛm.

Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.

6 Ɛno na mpakye behuruw te sɛ ɔforote, na mum tɛkrɛma de anigye ateɛ mu. Nsu betue wɔ sare so, na nsuwansuwa apue wɔ nweatam so.

Then shall the lame leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing; for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and brooks in the desert.

7 Nwea a so yɛ hyew no bɛdan ɔtare, na nsuwansuwa atue wɔ asase wosee so. Atu a anka sakraman te mu no, ɛhɔ na sare ne demmire ne paparɔso befifi.

And the sandy waste shall be changed into a pool, and the thirsty land into springs of water: in the habitation of monsters, where each one used to lie, shall be a court for reeds and rushes.

8 Na ɔtempɔn bɛda hɔ; wɔbɛfrɛ no Ahotefo Kwan. Wɔn a wɔn ho ntew rentu kwan wɔ so; ɛbɛda hɔ ama wɔn a wɔnantew saa Kwan no so; amumɔyɛfo nkwaseafo rennantenantew so.

And there shall be a highway and a way, and The holy way, shall it be called; no unclean one shall pass over it; but it shall be [only] theirs; the wayfaring man, and those unacquainted [therewith], shall not go astray.

9 Gyata biara rentena hɔ, na akekaboa biara rensi so; wɔrenhu wɔn wɔ hɔ. Na wɔn a wɔagye wɔn nko ara na wɔbɛfa so,

No lion shall be there, and no ravenous beast shall go up thereon, shall not be found there; but there shall walk the redeemed:

10 na wɔn a Awurade agye wɔn no bɛsan aba. Wɔde nnwonto bɛhyɛn Sion; anigye a ɛnsa da bɛyɛ wɔn ahenkyɛw. Wobenya anigye ne ahosɛpɛw mmoroso, na awerɛhow ne apinisi beguan akɔ.

And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with song, with everlasting joy upon their head; gladness and joy shall they obtain, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
