< Adiyisɛm 6 >
1 Afei mihuu sɛ Oguamma no atew nsɔwano ason no mu nea edi kan no ano, na metee sɛ ateasefo baanan no mu baako de nne a ɛte sɛ aprannaa reka se, “Bra!”
And I saw when the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures speaking, like a voice of thunder, Come.
2 Mehwɛe, na mihuu ɔpɔnkɔ fitaa bi wɔ hɔ. Na nea ɔte ne so no kura agyan na wɔmaa no ahenkyɛw. Ɔkɔɔ sɛ nkonimdifo kodii nkonim.
And I saw, and behold, a white horse: and the one sitting on him having a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and that he might conquer.
3 Afei Oguamma no tew nsɔwano a ɛto so abien no ano, na metee sɛ ɔteasefo a ɔto so abien no reka se, “Bra!”
And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come.
4 Ɔpɔnkɔ foforo a ɔyɛ kɔkɔɔ bae. Ɔmaa nea ɔte ne so no tumi se ɔmfa ɔko mmra asase so na nnipa nkunkum wɔn ho. Wɔmaa no afoa kɛse bi.
And there went out a red horse: and to him sitting on him it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they shall slay one another: and a great sword was given him.
5 Afei Oguamma no tew nsɔwano a ɛto so abiɛsa no ano, na metee sɛ ɔteasefo a ɔto so abiɛsa no reka se, “Bra!” Mehwɛe, na mihuu ɔpɔnkɔ tuntum bi wɔ hɔ. Ne kafo no kura nsania abien.
And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, Come. And I saw; and behold a black horse; and the one sitting on him having a balance in his hand.
6 Metee biribi te sɛ nne bi fii ateasefo baanan no nkyɛn. Na nne no se, “Awi susukoraa yɛ da koro akatua, na aburow susukoraa abiɛsa nso yɛ da koro akatua. Nanso nsɛe ngo ne bobesa no!”
And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, A measure of wheat for a denarion, and three measures of barley for a denarion; and hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 Afei Oguamma no tew nsɔwano a ɛto so anan no ano na metee sɛ ɔteasefo a ɔto so anan no reka se, “Bra!”
And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, Come.
8 Mehwɛe, na mihuu ɔpɔnkɔ nsonso bi. Wɔtoo ne sotefo no din “Owu,” na Asaman di nʼakyi pɛɛ. Wɔmaa no asase nkyɛmu anan mu baako so tumi sɛ ɔmfa ɔko, ɔkɔm, ɔyare ne nkekaboa a wɔwɔ asase so nkunkum wɔn. (Hadēs )
And I saw, and behold a livid horse: and the one sitting on him, to him the name was Death, and Hades followed along with him: and power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to slay with the sword, and with famine, and with death, and with the wild beasts of the earth. (Hadēs )
9 Afei Oguamma no tew nsɔwano a ɛto so anum no ano. Mihuu afɔremuka bi, na ase na wɔn a wokum wɔn wɔ asɛmpa no ne gyidi no ho adansedi akra wɔ.
And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw beneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain on account of the word of God, and the testimony which they had.
10 Wɔde nne a ano yɛ den kae se, “Otumfo Awurade, Ɔkronkronni ne Nokwafo! Woretwɛn akosi da bɛn ansa na wɔabu nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so atɛn, na wɔatwe wɔn aso sɛ wokunkum yɛn?”
And they cried with a great voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood from those who dwell upon the earth?
11 Wɔmaa wɔn mu biara atade fitaa, na wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se wɔntwɛn kakra nkosi sɛ wobekum wɔn nuanom asomfo abɛka wɔn ho.
And a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them, that they should wait a little while, until their fellow-servants and brethren, who are about to be slain as they were should be fulfilled.
12 Na mihuu sɛ Oguamma no tew nsɔwano a ɛto so asia no ano. Na asasewosow a ano yɛ den ba maa owia yɛɛ tumm sɛ birisii, na ɔsram yɛɛ kɔɔ sɛ mogya.
And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the full moon became like blood;
13 Na nsoromma tetew fii soro bɛhwee asase so te sɛnea mframa a ano yɛ den bɔ borɔdɔma bun ma ɛtetew gu fam pɛ.
and the stars of the heaven fell upon the earth, as a fig-tree casting her unripe figs, when shaken by a mighty wind;
14 Ɔsoro yeraa te sɛ nhoma a wɔabobɔw, na mmepɔw ne asupɔw fii wɔn atenae.
and the heaven rolled away as a book is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 Na asase so ahemfo ne nnipa akɛse ne asafohene ne adefo ne ahoɔdenfo ne nkoa ne adehye nyinaa hintahintaw abodan ne mmepɔw mu abotan mu.
And the kings of the earth, and the mighty men, and the chiliarchs, and the rich men, and the mighty men, and every slave, and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,
16 Na wɔka kyerɛɛ mmepɔw no ne abotan no se, “Monkata yɛn so na momfa yɛn nsie, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a nea ɔte ahengua no so no ani renhu yɛn, na yemfi Oguamma no abufuw ano.
and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of the one sitting upon the throne, and the wrath of the Lamb:
17 Wɔn abufuw no da kɛse adu, na hena na obetumi agyina ano?”
because the great day of their wrath has come; and who is able to stand?
