Yesaia 4

1 Saa da no, mmea baason beso ɔbarima baako mu aka se, “Yɛbɛbɔ yɛn ho akɔnhama na yɛn ankasa apɛ yɛn adurade; ma wo din nna yɛn so kɛkɛ. Yi ahohora fi yɛn so!”

And seven women have taken hold on one man, In that day, saying, “We eat our own bread, And we put on our own raiment, Only, let your name be called over us, Remove our reproach.”

2 Saa da no Awurade Baa no bɛyɛ fɛ na anya anuonyam, na asase no so aba bɛyɛ ahohoahoa ne anuonyam ama Israel nkae no.

In that day is the Shoot of YHWH for desire and for glory, And the fruit of the earth For excellence and for beauty to the escaped of Israel.

3 Wɔn a wɔaka wɔ Sion, a wɔte Yerusalem no, wɔbɛfrɛ wɔn kronkron, wɔn a wɔakyerɛw wɔn din aka ateasefo ho wɔ Yerusalem nyinaa.

And it has been, he who is left in Zion, And he who is remaining in Jerusalem, “Holy” is said of him, Of everyone who is written for life in Jerusalem.

4 Awurade bɛhohoro Sion mmea ho fi; ɔde atemmu honhom ne ogya honhom bɛpepa mogya nkekae a ɛwɔ Yerusalem.

If the Lord has washed away The filth of daughters of Zion, And purges the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, By the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

5 Afei, Bepɔw Sion ne wɔn a wɔboa wɔn ano wɔ hɔ nyinaa, Awurade de wusiw mununkum bɛkata wɔn so awia, na ɔde ogya a ɛdɛw akata wɔn so anadwo; ntama kyinii bɛkata anuonyam yi nyinaa so.

Then YHWH has created Over every fixed place of Mount Zion, And over her convocations, A cloud by day, and smoke, And the shining of a flaming fire by night, That over all glory—a safeguard,

6 Ɛbɛyɛ hintabea ne onwini wɔ awia anoden mu, na osu ne ahum mu nso, ɛbɛyɛ guankɔbea ne hintabea.

And a covering may be, For a shadow from drought by day, And for a refuge, and for a hiding place, From inundation and from rain!
