Yeremia 47
1 Ansa na Farao bɛtow ahyɛ Gasa so no, eyi ne Awurade asɛm a ɛfa Filistifo ho a ɛbaa odiyifo Yeremia nkyɛn:
The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, the profete, ayens Palestyns, bifor that Farao smoot Gaza.
2 Sɛɛ na Awurade se: “Monhwɛ sɛnea nsu rebobɔ ba wɔ atifi fam; ɛbɛyɛ ɔhweam a abu afa so. Ebebu afa asase no ne biribiara ɛwɔ so no so, nkurow no ne nnipa a wɔtete mu. Nnipa no bɛteɛteɛ mu; wɔn a wɔte asase no so nyinaa betwa adwo
The Lord seith these thingis, Lo! watris schulen stie fro the north, and tho schulen be as a stronde flowynge, and tho schulen hile the lond, and the fulnesse therof, the citee, and the dwelleris therof. Men schulen crie, and alle the dwelleris of the lond schulen yelle,
3 bere a wɔate apɔnkɔ a wotu mmirika no anan ase nnyigyei, na wɔate atamfo no nteaseɛnam gyegyeegye ne wɔn ntwahonan nnyigyei no. Agyanom rentwa wɔn ani nhwɛ wɔn mma; wɔn nsa bɛsensɛn wɔn ho kwa.
for the noise of boost of armed men, and of werriours of hym, and for mouyng of hise cartis, and multitude of hise wheelis. Fadris bihelden not sones with clumsid hondis,
4 Na da no aba sɛ wɔsɛe Filistifo no nyinaa na wotwa wɔn a wɔaka no nyinaa gu, wɔn a anka wotumi boa Tiro ne Sidon no. Awurade rebɛsɛe Filistifo no, nkae a wofi Kreta mpoano no.
for the comyng of the dai in which alle Filisteis schulen be destried; and Tirus schal be destried, and Sidon with alle her othere helpis. For the Lord hath destried Palestyns, the remenauntis of the ile of Capadocie.
5 Gasa bɛbɔ tikwaw bere a ɔretwa adwo; wɔbɛma Askelon atɔ mum. Mo nkae a mowɔ tataw so, mobɛbobɔ mo ho akam akosi da bɛn?
Ballidnesse cam on Gaza; Ascolon was stille, and the remenauntis of the valei of tho.
6 “‘Aa, Awurade afoa,’ ‘da bɛn na wobɛhome? San kɔhyɛ wo boha mu; gyae na da komm.’
Hou longe schalt thou falle doun, O! swerd of the Lord, hou long schalt thou not reste? Entre thou in to thi schethe, be thou refreischid, and be stille.
7 Na ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na ada komm bere a Awurade ahyɛ no bere a wahyɛ no se ɔnkɔtow nhyɛ Askelon ne mpoano asase no so?”
Hou schal it reste, whanne the Lord comaundide to it ayens Ascalon, and ayens the see coostis therof, and there hath seide to it?
