< Adiyisɛm 5 >
1 Mihuu sɛ nea ɔte ahengua so no kura nhoma bi wɔ ne nsa nifa mu. Na wɔakyerɛw akyi ne anim nyinaa a wɔde nsɔwano ason asosɔw ano.
And I saw, at the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book, which was written within and on the back side, and which was sealed with seven seals.
2 Mihuu ɔbɔfo hoɔdenfo bi a ɔde nne kɛse kae se, “Hena na ɔfata sɛ ɔtew nsɔwano no na obue nhoma no mu?”
And I saw a strong angel, who proclaimed with a loud voice, Who is competent to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 Nanso wɔannya obiara a ɔwɔ ɔsoro anaa asase so anaa asase ase a otumi buee nhoma no mu hwɛɛ mu.
And no one either in heaven above, or on the earth, or beneath the earth, was able to open the book, or to look thereon.
4 Misui yiye, efisɛ wɔannya obiara a ɔfata sɛ obue nhoma no mu na ɔhwɛ mu.
And I wept much, because no one was found, who was competent to open the book, or to look on it.
5 Afei ɔpanyin baako ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Nsu. Hwɛ! Gyata a ofi Yuda abusuakuw mu a ɔyɛ Dawid aseni adi nkonim, na obetumi atetew nsɔwano ason no na wabue nhoma no mu.”
And one of the Elders said to me, Weep not; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath been victorious: He will open the book, and its seven seals.
6 Afei mihuu Oguamma bi sɛ ogyina ahengua no mfimfini a ateasefo baanan no ne mpanyimfo no atwa ne ho ahyia. Wɔhwɛ a na Oguamma no sɛ nea wɔakum no. Na ɔwɔ mmɛn ason ne aniwa ason a egyina hɔ ma Onyankopɔn ahonhom ason no a wɔasoma wɔn aba wiase no.
And I looked, and in the midst of the Elders stood a lamb, as if slain; and it had seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God that are sent into all the earth.
7 Oguamma no kogyee nhoma no fii nea ɔte ahengua so no nsa nifa mu.
And he came, and took the book from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 Ɔyɛɛ saa no, ateasefo baanan no ne mpanyimfo aduonu anan no butubutuw Oguamma no anim. Na wɔn mu biara kura sanku ne sika ayowa a aduhuam ayɛ no ma a ɛyɛ ahotefo mpae.
And when he took the book, the four Animals and the twenty and four Elders fell down before the Lamb, each of them having a harp, and cups of gold full of odors, which are the supplications of the saints.
9 Wɔtoo dwom foforo se, “Wofata sɛ wofa nhoma no na wotew ne nsɔwano no. Efisɛ wokum wo, na ɛnam wo wu so ma wɔtɔɔ nnipa fii aman ne mmusuakuw ne nkurɔfo ne kasa nyinaa mu maa Onyankopɔn.
And they sung a new anthem, saying: Competent art thou, to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; because thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 Wɔayɛ wɔn asɔfo ahemman sɛ wɔnsom yɛn Nyankopɔn na wobedi asase so hene.”
and thou hast made them kings and priests to our God; and they reign on the earth.
11 Bio mehwɛe, na metee abɔfo mpempem nka. Na wɔatwa ahengua no ne ateasefo baanan no ne mpanyimfo no ho ahyia
And I looked, and I heard, as it were the voice of many angels, around the throne, and the Animals and the Elders; and the number of them was a myriad of myriads, and thousand of thousands,
12 reto dwom dennen se, “Oguamma a wokum no no fata sɛ ogye tumi, ahonya, nyansa ne ahoɔden ne nidi ne anuonyam ne nkamfo!”
who said, with a loud voice; Competent is the Lamb that was slain, to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing;
13 Na metee sɛ abɔde a wɔwɔ ɔsoro, asase so, asase ase ne abɔde biara a ɛwɔ po mu ne abɔde biara a ɛwɔ wiase nyinaa reto dwom se, “Nhyira ne nidi ne anuonyam ne tumi, nka nea ɔte ahengua no so ne Oguamma no, (aiōn )
and to be over every created thing, that is in heaven, or on earth, or under the earth, or in the sea; and all that are in them. And I heard him who sat on the throne say: Unto the Lamb be given, blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, for ever and ever. (aiōn )
14 Abɔde anan no gyee so se, “Amen!” Na mpanyimfo no butubutuw hɔ somee.
And the four Animals said: Amen. And the Elders fell down, and adored.
