Yeremia 42
1 Afei asraafo mpanyimfo no nyinaa a Karea babarima Yohanan ne Hosaia babarima Yesania ka ho, ne nnipa no nyinaa, efi akumaa so kosi ɔkɛse so kɔɔ
And alle the princes of werriours neiyiden, and Johannan, the sone of Caree, and Jeconye, the sone of Josie, and the residue comyn puple, fro a litil man `til to a greet man.
2 odiyifo Yeremia nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛsrɛ wo, tie yɛn adesrɛ yi na bɔ Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn mpae ma wɔn a wɔaka yi nyinaa. Sɛnea wuhu no, kan no na yɛdɔɔso nanso afei yɛaka kakraa bi.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, the profete, Oure preier falle in thi siyt, and preie thou for vs to thi Lord God, for alle these remenauntis; for we ben left a fewe of manye, as thin iyen biholden vs; and thi Lord God telle to vs the weie,
3 Bɔ mpae sɛnea Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn bɛkyerɛ yɛn faako a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ ne nea ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ.”
bi which we schulen go, and the word which we schulen do.
4 Yeremia buaa wɔn se, “Mate mo asɛm no, na ɔkwan biara so mɛbɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn mpae sɛnea moasrɛ no; mɛka nea Awurade bɛka biara akyerɛ mo na meremfa hwee nsie mo.”
Forsothe Jeremye, the profete, seide to hem, Y haue herd; lo! Y preye to oure Lord God, bi youre wordis; Y schal schewe to you ech word, what euere word the Lord schal answere to me, nether Y schal hide ony thing fro you.
5 Na afei, wɔka kyerɛɛ Yeremia se, “Sɛ yɛanyɛ nea Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn soma wo se ka kyerɛ yɛn no a, ma ɔnyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafo ntia yɛn.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, The Lord be witnesse of treuthe and of feith bitwixe vs; if not bi ech word, in which thi Lord God schal sende thee to vs, so we schulen do, whether it be good ether yuel.
6 Sɛ yɛpɛ o, sɛ yɛmpɛ o, yɛbɛyɛ osetie ama Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn a yɛresoma wo wɔ ne nkyɛn no, sɛnea ebesi yɛn yiye, na yebedi Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn asɛm so.”
We schulen obeie to the vois of oure Lord God, to whom we senden thee, that it be wel to vs, whanne we han herd the vois of oure Lord God.
7 Nna du akyi no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia hɔ.
Forsothe whanne ten daies weren fillid, the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye.
8 Enti ɔfrɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan ne asraafo mpanyimfo a wɔka ne ho ne nnipa no nyinaa; efi akumaa so kosi ɔkɛse so.
And he clepide Johannan, the sone of Caree, and alle the princes of werriours, that weren with hym, and al the puple fro the leste `til to the mooste; and he seide to hem,
9 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a mosomaa me sɛ memfa mo adesrɛ nkɔto nʼanim no se:
The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, to whom ye senten me, that Y schulde mekeli sette forth youre preyeris in his siyt.
10 ‘Sɛ motena asase yi so a, mesiesie mo na merensɛe mo, medua mo na merentu mo ase, efisɛ me werɛ ahow wɔ amanehunu a mama aba mo so no ho.
If ye resten, and dwellen in this lond, Y schal bilde you, and Y schal not distrie; Y schal plaunte, and Y schal not drawe out; for now Y am plesid on the yuel which Y dide to you.
11 Munnsuro Babiloniahene a mprempren musuro no no. Munnsuro no, Awurade na ose, efisɛ mene mo wɔ hɔ, megye mo, na mayi mo afi ne tumi ase.
Nyle ye drede of the face of the kyng of Babiloyne, whom ye `that ben ferdful, dreden; nyle ye drede hym, seith the Lord, for Y am with you, to make you saaf, and to delyuere fro his hond.
12 Mehu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔno nso ahu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔde mo asan aba mo asase so.’
And Y schal yyue mercies to you, and Y schal haue merci on you, and Y schal make you dwelle in youre lond.
13 “Nanso sɛ moka se, ‘Yɛrentena saa asase yi so,’ na ne saa nti moanyɛ osetie amma Awurade mo Nyankopɔn,
Forsothe if ye seien, We schulen not dwelle in this lond, nether we schulen here the vois of oure Lord God, and seie,
14 na sɛ moka se, ‘Dabi, yɛbɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, faako a yɛrenhu ɔko, na yɛrente akobɛn nnyigyei na aduankɔm renne yɛn a,’
Nai, but we schulen go to the lond of Egipt, where we schulen not se batel, and schulen not here the noise of trumpe, and we schulen not suffre hungur, and there we schulen dwelle;
15 ɛno de tie Awurade asɛm, mo Yuda nkae. Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se, ‘Sɛ moawe ahinam sɛ mobɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, na sɛ munya kɔtena hɔ a,
for this thing, ye remenauntis of Juda, here now the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, If ye setten youre face, for to entre in to Egipt, and if ye entren,
16 ɛno de afoa a musuro no bɛto mo wɔ hɔ na ɔkɔm a, mo koma tu wɔ ho no bedi mo akyi akɔ Misraim na hɔ na mubewuwu.
to dwelle there, the swerd whiche ye dreden schal take you there in the lond of Egipt, and the hungur for which ye ben angwischid schal cleue to you in Egipt; and there ye schulen die.
17 Nokware wɔn a wɔasi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛkɔ Misraim akɔtena hɔ no bewuwu wɔ afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano, na wɔn mu baako po renka anaa ɔrenguan mfi amanehunu a mede bɛba wɔn so no mu.’
And alle the men that settiden her face, to entre in to Egipt, and to dwelle there, schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; no man of hem schal dwelle stille, nether schal aschape fro the face of yuel, which Y schal brynge on hem.
18 Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se, ‘Sɛnea mʼabufuw ne mʼabufuwhyew hwie guu nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem so no, saa ara na sɛ, mokɔ Misraim a, mʼabufuwhyew behwie agu mo so. Mobɛyɛ nnome, ahodwiriwde, afɔbu ne ahohora; morenhu saa beae yi bio.’
For why the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, As my strong veniaunce and myn indignacioun is wellid togidere on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, so myn indignacioun schal be wellid togidere on you, whanne ye han entrid in to Egipt; and ye schulen be in to sweryng, and in to wondring, and in to cursyng, and in to schenschipe; and ye schulen no more se this place.
19 “Yuda nkae, Awurade aka akyerɛ mo se, ‘Monnkɔ Misraim.’ Mommma mo werɛ mmfi, nnɛ merebɔ mo kɔkɔ
The word of the Lord is on you, ye remenauntis of Juda; nyle ye entre in to Egipt; ye witinge schulen wite, that Y haue witnessid to you to dai;
20 sɛ moyɛɛ mfomso a ɛyɛ hu yiye, bere a mosomaa me kɔɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn hɔ, na mokae se, ‘Bɔ Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn mpae ma yɛn, na ka nea ɔka biara kyerɛ yɛn na yɛbɛyɛ,’ no.
for ye han disseyued youre soulis, for ye senten me to youre Lord God, and seiden, Preye thou for vs to oure Lord God, and bi alle thingis what euer thingis oure Lord schal seie to thee, so telle thou to vs, and we schulen do.
21 Nnɛ, maka akyerɛ mo, nanso monyɛɛ osetie mmaa Awurade mo Nyankopɔn ara wɔ biribiara a ɔhyɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ mo no ho.
And Y telde to you to dai, and ye herden not the vois of youre Lord God, on alle thingis for whiche he sente me to you.
22 Enti afei mommma mo werɛ mfi sɛ, mubewuwu wɔ afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano wɔ faako a mopɛ sɛ mokɔtena hɔ no.”
Now therfor ye witynge schulen wite, for ye schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, in the place to which ye wolden entre, to dwelle there.
