Sakaria 10

1 Mummisa Awurade hɔ nsu asusowbere mu; ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔyɛ osu ne mu ahum. Ɔma osu tɔ ma nnipa nyinaa, ne nnɔbae nso ma obiara.

Ask you of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.

2 Ahoni no ka nnaadaasɛm, nkɔmhyɛfo nya anisoadehu a ɛyɛ atoro; wɔde nkontomposɛm kyerɛ dae ase, wɔma awerɛkyekye kwa. Enti nnipa no nenam te sɛ nguan a wonni ɔhwɛfo na wɔhyɛ wɔn so.

For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.

3 “Me bo afuw nguanhwɛfo no yiye, na mɛtwe ntuanofo no aso. Na Asafo Awurade bɛhwɛ ne nguankuw a wɔyɛ Yudafi no, na wayɛ wɔn sɛ anuonyam pɔnkɔ wɔ ɔsa mu.

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.

4 Tweatibo befi Yuda mu, na ntamadan pɛe befi ne mu, ɔsa mu tadua befi Yuda mu, na sodifo nyinaa nso saa ara.

And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.

5 Wɔbɛbɔ mu ayɛ sɛ dɔmmarima a wotiatia mmorɔn so dontori mu wɔ ɔko mu. Esiane sɛ Awurade ka wɔn ho no nti, wɔbɛko na wɔadi apɔnkɔsotefo no so.

And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.

6 “Mɛhyɛ Yudafi den na magye Yosefi no nkwa. Mede wɔn besi wɔn dedaw mu efisɛ me yam hyehye me wɔ wɔn ho. Wɔbɛyɛ te sɛ nea mempoo wɔn mpo, na mene Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn, na megye wɔn so.

And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.

7 Efraimfo bɛyɛ sɛ dɔmmarima, wɔn ani begye te sɛ nea wɔanom nsa. Wɔn mma behu na wɔn ani begye; wobedi ahurusi wɔ wɔn koma mu wɔ Awurade mu.

And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.

8 Mɛto nsa afrɛ wɔn aboaboa wɔn ano. Ampa ara megye wɔn bio; wɔbɛdɔɔso sɛ kan no.

I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.

9 Ɛwɔ mu, mɛhwete wɔn mu akɔ aman so, nanso wɔbɛkae me wɔ akyirikyiri nsase so. Wɔne wɔn mma bɛtena nkwa mu, na wɔbɛsan aba.

And I will sow them among the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.

10 Mede wɔn befi Misraim aba mɛboa wɔn ano afi Asiria. Mede wɔn bɛba Gilead ne Lebanon, na wɔrensen hɔ.

And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from among the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.

11 Wɔbɛfa ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ po mu, nanso wobedi po asorɔkye a ehuru no so. Nil mu nsu nyinaa bɛyow. Asiria ahomaso nso wɔbɛbrɛ no ase na Misraim ahempema betwa mu akɔ.

And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall strike the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.

12 Mɛhyɛ wɔn den wɔ Awurade mu na ne din mu na wɔbɛnantew,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.

And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, says the Lord.
