< Yeremia 17 >
1 “Wɔde dade kyerɛwdua akrukyerɛw Yuda bɔne, dade kyerɛwdua a ano te sɛ kyerɛwbo, wɔ wɔn koma apon so ne wɔn afɔremuka mmɛn so.
The synne of Juda is writun with an irone poyntel, in a nail of adamaunt; it is writun on the breede of the herte of hem, and in the hornes of the auteris of hem.
2 Mpo, wɔn mma kae wɔn afɔremuka ne Asera nnua a ɛwɔ nnua a adennan no nkyɛn ne nkoko atenten no so.
Whanne the sones of hem bithenken on her auteris, and woodis, and on the trees ful of boowis, makynge sacrifice in the feld in hiye munteyns,
3 Me mmepɔw a ɛwɔ asase no so, mo ahonyade ne mo nnwetɛbona nyinaa mede bɛma sɛ asade, ɛne mo sorɔnsorɔmmea nso, esiane mo man no so bɔne nti.
Y schal yyue thi strengthe and alle thi tresouris in to rauyschyng, thin hiye thingis for synnes in alle thin endis.
4 Mo ankasa mfomso nti mobɛhwere agyapade a mede maa mo no. Mede mo bɛyɛ nkoa ama mo atamfo wɔ asase a munnim so so, efisɛ moahwanyan mʼabufuw, na ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.”
And thou schalt be left aloone fro thin eritage which Y yaf to thee; and Y schal make thee to serue thin enemyes, in the lond which thou knowist not; for thou hast kyndlid fier in my strong veniaunce, it schal brenne til in to with outen ende.
5 Sɛɛ na Awurade se, “Nnome nka nea ɔde ne ho to onipa so, nea ɔde ne ho to ɔhonam so pɛ nʼahoɔden na ne koma dan fi Awurade ho.
The Lord seith these thingis, Cursid is the man that trestith in man, and settith fleisch his arm, and his herte goith awei fro the Lord.
6 Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ wura a ɛwɔ nsase tamaa so; sɛ yiyedi ba a ɔrenhu, ɔbɛtena nweatam a awo so, ne nkyene asase a obi nte so so.
For he schal be as bromes in desert, and he schal not se, whanne good schal come; but he schal dwelle in drynesse in desert, in the lond of saltnesse, and vnabitable.
7 “Nhyira nka onipa a ɔde ne ho to Awurade so, na nʼanidaso wɔ ne mu.
Blessid is the man that tristith in the Lord, and the Lord schal be his trist.
8 Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ dua a wɔadua no asu ho na ne ntin teɛ kɔ asu no mu. Sɛ ahuhuru ba a onsuro; ne nhaban yɛ frɔmfrɔm mmere nyinaa. Onni ɔhaw biara wɔ afe a osu ntɔ mu na ɛkɔ so sow aba daa.”
And he schal be as a tre, which is plauntid ouer watris, which sendith hise rootis to moisture; and it schal not drede, whanne heete schal come; and the leef therof schal be greene, and it schal not be moued in the tyme of drynesse, nether ony tyme it schal faile to make fruyte.
9 Koma yɛ nnaadaa sen ade nyinaa na ano nni aduru. Hena na ɔbɛte nʼase?
The herte of man is schrewid, and `may not be souyt; who schal knowe it?
10 “Me Awurade, mepɛɛpɛɛ koma mu na mehwehwɛ adwene mu, gyina so de tua onipa ka sɛnea nʼabrabɔ te, ne sɛnea ɛfata ne nneyɛe.”
Y am the Lord sekynge the herte, and preuynge the reynes, and Y yyue to ech man after his weye, and aftir the fruyt of his fyndyngis.
11 Sɛnea asɛmɛntɛ a osow nkesua a ɛnyɛ ɔno na ɔtowee no, saa ara na onipa a onya sika a ɔmfa ɔkwan pa so no te. Sɛ obu ne nkwa nna mu abien a wobegyaw no mu, na awiei no, ne kwasea bɛda adi.
A partriche nurschide tho thingis whiche sche bredde not; he made richessis, and not in doom; in the myddis of hise daies he schal forsake tho, and in hise laste tyme he schal be vnwijs.
12 Anuonyam ahengua a wɔama so fi mfiase no, ne yɛn kronkronbea.
The seete of glorie of hiynesse was at the bigynnyng the place of oure halewyng, the abidyng of Israel.
13 Awurade, woyɛ Israel anidaso, wɔn a wɔpa wʼakyi nyinaa ani bewu. Wɔn a wɔtwe wɔn ho fi wo ho no, wobesie wɔn efisɛ wɔagyaw Awurade a ɔyɛ nkwa asuti no.
Lord, alle thei that forsaken thee, schulen be schent; thei that goen aweie fro thee, schulen be writun in erthe, for thei han forsake the Lord, a veyne of quyk watirs.
14 Sa me yare Awurade, na me ho bɛtɔ me; gye me na menya nkwa, na wo ne ɔbaako a mekamfo wo.
Lord, heele thou me, and Y schal be heelid; make thou me saaf, and Y schal be saaf; for thou art myn heriyng.
15 Wobisa me daa sɛ, “Ɛhe na Awurade asɛm no wɔ? Ma ɛmmra mu mprempren!”
Lo! thei seien to me, Where is the word of the Lord? come it.
16 Minnguan mfii mʼadwuma sɛ wo guanhwɛfo ho; wunim sɛ menhwehwɛɛ abasamtu da. Nea efi mʼanom yɛ pefee wɔ wʼanim.
And Y am not disturblid, suynge thee scheepherd, and Y desiride not the dai of man, thou woost. That that yede out of my lippis was riytful in thi siyt.
17 Nhunahuna me; wo ne me guankɔbea wɔ amanehunu da.
Be thou not to drede to me; thou art myn hope in the dai of turment.
18 Ma wɔn a wɔtaa me anim ngu ase, na yi me fi ahohora mu. Ma wɔmmɔ hu, nanso mma me koma ntu. Ma amanehunu da no mmra wɔn so; fa ɔhawprenu sɛe wɔn.
Be thei schent, that pursuen me, and be Y not schent; drede thei, and drede not Y; brynge in on hem a dai of turment, and defoule thou hem bi double defouling.
19 Sɛɛ na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me, “Kɔ na kogyina nnipa no pon a Yuda ahemfo di hɔ ahyɛmfiri no; kogyina Yerusalem apon a aka no nso ano.
The Lord seith these thingis to me, Go thou, and stonde in the yate of the sones of the puple, bi whiche the kingis of Juda entren and goen out, and in alle the yatis of Jerusalem.
20 Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Muntie Awurade asɛm, mo Yuda ahemfo ne Yudafo nyinaa ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem a wɔfa saa apon yi mu.
And thou schalt seie to hem, Here the word of the Lord, ye kingis of Juda, and al Judee, and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, that entren bi these yatis.
21 Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Monhwɛ yiye na moansoa nnesoa Homeda anaa moamfa amfa Yerusalem apon mu.
The Lord God seith these thingis, Kepe ye youre soulis, and nyle ye bere birthuns in the dai of sabat, nether bringe in bi the yatis of Jerusalem.
22 Monnsoa adesoa mfi mo afi mu na monnyɛ adwuma biara Homeda, na mmom monyɛ Homeda no kronkron, sɛnea mehyɛɛ mo agyanom no.
And nyle ye caste birthuns out of youre housis in the dai of sabat, and ye schulen not do ony werk; halewe ye the dai of sabat, as Y comaundide to youre fadris.
23 Nanso wɔantie na wɔammu; wɔyɛɛ asoɔden, wɔantie na wɔampɛ nteɛso.
And thei herden not, nether bowiden doun her eere, but thei maden hard her nol, that thei schulden not here me, and that thei schulden not take chastisyng.
24 Nanso sɛ mohwɛ yiye na moyɛ osetie ma me a, sɛɛ na Awurade se, na moamfa nnesoa amfa saa kuropɔn yi apon mu Homeda, na sɛ moyɛ Homeda no kronkron a monnyɛ adwuma biara a,
And it schal be, if ye heren me, seith the Lord, that ye bere not in birthuns bi the yatis of this citee in the dai of sabat, and if ye halewen the dai of sabat, that ye do not werk ther ynne,
25 ɛno de ahemfo a wɔte Dawid ahengua so ne wɔn adwumayɛfo bɛfa saa apon yi mu. Wɔn nyinaa bɛba a wɔtete nteaseɛnam mu ne apɔnkɔ so, a Yuda mmarima ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem ka ho, na nnipa bɛtena kuropɔn yi mu daa nyinaa.
kingis and princes sittynge on the seete of Dauid schulen entre bi the yatis of this citee, and stiynge in charis and horsis; thei, and the princis of hem, the men of Juda, and the dwelleris of Jerusalem; and this citee schal be enhabitid withouten ende.
26 Nnipa befi Yuda nkurow ne nkuraa a atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia no aba, wobefi Benyamin asase ne atɔe fam nkoko so, wobefi mmepɔw, mantam ne Negeb aba a wɔde ɔhyew afɔrebɔde ne afɔrebɔ, aduan afɔrebɔde, nnuhuam ne aseda afɔrebɔde reba Awurade fi.
And thei schulen come fro the citees of Juda, and fro the cumpas of Jerusalem, and fro the lond of Beniamyn, and fro feeldi places, and fro hilli places, and fro the south, beringe brent sacrifice, and slayn sacrifice, and encense; and thei schulen bringe offring in to the hous of the Lord.
27 Nanso sɛ moanyɛ osetie amma me, anyɛ Homeda no kronkron, na sɛ mosoa adesoa biara fa Yerusalem apon mu Homeda a, ɛno de mɛsɔ ogya a ɛrennum da wɔ Yerusalem apon mu na abɛhyew nʼaban ahorow no.’”
Forsothe if ye heren not me, that ye halewe the dai of sabat, and that ye bere not a birthun, and that ye bringe not in bi the yatis of Jerusalem in the dai of sabat, Y schal kyndle fier in the yatis therof; and it schal deuoure the housis of Jerusalem, and it schal not be quenchid.
