< Yesaia 55 >
1 “Mommra, mo a osukɔm de mo nyinaa, mommra nsu no ho; na mo a munni sika, mommra mmɛtɔ na munni! Mommra mmɛtɔ nsa ne nufusu a munntua hwee.
Alle that thirsten, come ye to watris, and ye han not siluer, haaste, bie ye, and ete ye; come ye, bie ye, with out siluer and with outen ony chaungyng, wyn and mylk.
2 Adɛn nti na mosɛe sika wɔ nea ɛnyɛ aduan ho ne mo ahoɔden wɔ nea ɛmmee ho? Muntie, muntie me na munni nea eye, na mo kra ani begye nnepa a ɛwɔ akatua pa ho.
Whi peisen ye siluer, and not in looues, and youre trauel, not in fulnesse? Ye herynge here me, and ete ye good, and youre soule schal delite in fatnesse.
3 Monyɛ aso, na mommra me nkyɛn; muntie me, na mo kra anya nkwa. Me ne mo bɛyɛ apam a ɛte hɔ daa, me dɔ a to ntwa da a mede hyɛɛ Dawid bɔ no.
Bowe ye youre eere, and `come ye to me; here ye, and youre soule schal lyue; and Y schal smyte with you a couenaunt euerlastynge, the feithful mercies of Dauid.
4 Hwɛ, mede no ayɛ adansedi ama nnipa no, wɔn kannifo ne ɔsahene.
Lo! Y yaf hym a witnesse to puplis, a duyk and a comaundour to folkis.
5 Ampa ara mobɛfrɛ aman a munnim wɔn, na aman a munnim no bɛyɛ ntɛm aba mo nkyɛn, Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn nti, Israel Ɔkronkronni no, efisɛ wahyɛ mo anuonyam.”
Lo! thou schalt clepe folkis, whiche thou knewist not; and folkis, that knewen not thee, schulen renne to thee; for thi Lord God, and the hooli of Israel, for he glorifiede thee.
6 Monhwehwɛ Awurade bere a mubehu no. Momfrɛ no bere a ɔbɛn.
Seke ye the Lord, while he mai be foundun; clepe ye hym to help, while he is niy.
7 Ma omumɔyɛfo ntwe ne ho mfi nʼakwan ho na ɔbɔnefo nso mfi ne nsusuwii ho. Ma ɔnnan nkɔ Awurade nkyɛn, na obehu no mmɔbɔ, ɔnnan nkɔ yɛn Nyankopɔn nkyɛn, na ɔde ne ho bɛkyɛ no.
An vnfeithful man forsake his weie, and a wickid man forsake hise thouytis; and turne he ayen to the Lord, and he schal haue merci on hym, and to oure God, for he is myche to foryyue.
8 “Na mʼadwene nyɛ mo adwene, na mo akwan nso nyɛ mʼakwan,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.
For why my thouytis ben not youre thouytis, and my weies ben not youre weies, seith the Lord.
9 Sɛnea ɔsoro korɔn sen asase no, saa ara na mʼakwan korɔn sen mo akwan na mʼadwene nso korɔn sen mo adwene.
For as heuenys ben reisid fro erthe, so my weies ben reisid fro youre weies, and my thouytis fro youre thouytis.
10 Sɛnea osu ne sukyerɛmma tɔ fi soro gu fam, na wɔnnsan nkɔ hɔ bio wɔ bere a ɛmfɔw asase mma enguu nhwiren mpaee, sɛnea ɛbɛsow aba ama ogufo ne aduan ama odifo no,
And as reyn and snow cometh doun fro heuene, and turneth no more ayen thidur, but it fillith the erthe, and bischedith it, and makith it to buriowne, and yyueth seed to hym that sowith, and breed to hym that etith,
11 saa ara na mʼasɛm a efi mʼanom no te: Ɛrensan mma me nkyɛn kwa. Mmom ɛbɛyɛ nea mepɛ na awie botae a ɛno nti mesomaa no.
so schal be my word, that schal go out of my mouth. It schal not turne ayen voide to me, but it schal do what euer thingis Y wolde, and it schal haue prosperite in these thingis to whiche Y sente it.
12 Mode ahosɛpɛw bepue na wɔagya mo kwan asomdwoe mu; mmepɔw ne nkoko betue nnwonto wɔ mo anim, na mfuw so nnua nyinaa bɛbɔ wɔn nsam.
For ye schulen go out in gladnesse, and ye schulen be led forth in pees; mounteyns and litil hillis schulen synge heriynge bifore you, and alle the trees of the cuntrei schulen make ioie with hond.
13 Nsɔe anan mu ɔpepaw befifi, na nnɛnkyɛnse anan mu ohuam dua befifi. Eyi bɛyɛ nea ɛhyɛ Awurade anuonyam, ɛbɛyɛ daapem nsɛnkyerɛnne, a ɛrentwa mu da.
A fir tre schal grow for a firse, and a mirte tre schal wexe for a nettil; and the Lord schal be nemyd in to a signe euerlastynge, that schal not be doon awei.
