Yeremia 19
1 Sɛɛ na Awurade se: “Kɔ na kɔtɔ dɔtekuruwa fi ɔnwemfo nkyɛn. Fa nnipa no mpanyimfo no mu bi ne asɔfo no mu bi ka wo ho
The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou, and take an erthene potel of a pottere, of the eldre men of the puple, and of the eldre men of preestis.
2 na fi adi kɔ Ben Hinom Bon a ɛbɛn Pɔthɛd Pon ano no. Ɛhɔ na pae mu ka nsɛm a meka kyerɛ wo no,
And go thou out to the valei of the sones of Ennon, which is bisidis the entring of the erthene yate; and there thou schalt preche the wordis whiche Y schal speke to thee;
3 se, ‘Muntie Awurade asɛm, mo Yuda ahemfo ne Yerusalemfo. Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade Israel Nyankopɔn se. Muntie, mede amanehunu reba ha, na obiara a ɔbɛte no aso mu bɛyɛ no yonn.
and thou schalt seie, Kyngis of Juda, and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, here ye the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe in turment on this place, so that ech man that herith it, hise eeris tyngle.
4 Efisɛ wɔagyaw me na wɔde ha ama ananafo anyame; wɔahyew afɔrebɔde wɔ so ama anyame a wɔn anaa wɔn agyanom, anaa Yuda ahemfo nhuu wɔn da, na wɔde mogya a edi bem ahyɛ ha ma.
For thei han forsake me, and maad alien this place, and offriden sacrifices to alien goddis ther ynne, whiche thei, and the fadris of hem, and the kingis of Juda, knewen not; and thei filliden this place with the blood of innocentis,
5 Wɔasisi Baal sorɔnsorɔmmea sɛ wɔde ogya bɛhyew wɔn mmabarima sɛ afɔrebɔde ama Baal, ade a manhyɛ anaa mammɔ so, anaa amma mʼadwene mu.
and bildiden hiy thingis to Baalym, to brenne her sones in fier, in to brent sacrifice to Baalym; whiche thingis Y comaundide not, nether spak, nether tho stieden in to myn herte.
6 Ɛno nti, monhwɛ yiye na nna bi reba, Awurade na ose, a nnipa remfrɛ ha se Tofet anaa Ben Hinom Bon bio, na mmom, Okum Bon.
Therfor the Lord seith, Lo! daies comen, and this place schal no more be clepid Tophet, and the valei of the sone of Ennon, but the valei of sleyng.
7 “‘Mɛsɛe Yuda ne Yerusalem nhyehyɛe wɔ ha. Mɛma wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano wɔ wɔn atamfo a wɔrehwehwɛ wɔn nkwa no anim, na mede wɔn afunu bɛma wim nnomaa ne asase so mmoa sɛ wɔn aduan.
And Y schal distrie the councel of Juda and of Jerusalem in this place, and Y schal distrie hem bi swerd, in the siyt of her enemyes, and in the hond of men sekynge the lyues of hem; and Y schal yyue her deed bodies mete to the briddis of the eir, and to beestis of erthe.
8 Mɛsɛe saa kuropɔn yi na mayɛ no ahodwiriwde; wɔn a wotwa mu wɔ hɔ no nyinaa ho bedwiriw wɔn, na nʼapirakuru no nti wobedi ne ho fɛw.
And Y schal sette this citee in to wondring, and in to hissing; ech that passith bi it, schal wondre, and hisse on al the veniaunce therof.
9 Mɛma wɔawe wɔn mmabarima ne wɔn mmabea nam, na wobefi ahohia a atamfo a wɔrehwehwɛ wɔn nkwa no anotua de bɛba wɔn so no mu awe wɔn ho wɔn ho nam.’
And Y schal feede hem with the fleischis of her sones, and with the fleischis of her douytris; and ech man schal ete the fleischis of his frend in the bisegyng and angwisch, in which the enemyes of hem, and thei that seken the lyues of hem, schulen close hem togidere.
10 “Afei bɔ kuruwa no wɔ wɔn a wɔka wo ho no anim ma wɔnhwɛ,
And thou schalt al to-breke the potel bifore the iyen of the men, that schulen go with thee.
11 na ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: Mɛbɔ saa ɔman yi ne kuropɔn yi sɛnea wɔabɔ ɔnwemfo kuruwa yi a wɔrentumi nsiesie bio. Wobesie awufo wɔ Tofet kosi sɛ, ɛhɔ bɛyɛ ma.
And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, So Y schal al to-breke this puple, and this citee, as the vessel of a pottere is al to-brokun, which mai no more be restorid; and thei schulen be biried in Tophet, for noon other place is to birie.
12 Sɛɛ ara na mɛyɛ saa beae yi ne wɔn a wɔtete so, Awurade na ose. Mɛyɛ kuropɔn yi sɛ Tofet.
So Y schal do to this place, seith the Lord, and to dwelleris therof, that Y sette this citee as Tophet.
13 Afi a ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda ahemfo ahemfi ho begu fi te sɛ Tofet ha. Afi a wɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ adan atifi maa ɔsoro asafo nyinaa na woguu nsa maa anyame foforo no.’”
And the housis of Jerusalem, and the housis of the kingis of Juda, schulen be as the place of Tophet; alle the vncleene housis, in whose roouys thei sacrifieden to al the chyualrie of heuene, and offriden moist sacrifices to alien goddis.
14 Afei Yeremia san fii Tofet, faako a Awurade somaa no se ɔnkɔhyɛ nkɔm wɔ hɔ no bae, na Obegyinaa Awurade asɔredan abangua mu na ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa se,
Forsothe Jeremye cam fro Tophet, whidur the Lord hadde sente hym for to profesie; and he stood in the porche of the hous of the Lord,
15 “Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se, ‘Muntie! Mede amanehunu a meka guu kuropɔn yi ne ho nkuraase no nyinaa so no bɛba wɔn so, efisɛ wɔyɛɛ asoɔden, na wɔantie me nsɛm.’”
and seide to al the puple, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe in on this citee, and on alle the citees therof, alle the yuelis whiche Y spak ayens it; for thei maden hard her nol, that thei herden not my wordis.
