1 Buebue wʼapon, Lebanon, na ogya mmɛhyew wo sida!
Thou Liban, opene thi yatis, and fier schal ete thi cedris.
2 Twa adwo, wo ɔpepaw, na sida ahwe ase; wɔasɛe nnua a ɛwɔ anuonyam no! Twa adwo Basan adum; wɔabubu kwaeberentuw no mu nnua no!
Yelle, thou fir tre, for the cedre felle doun, for grete men ben distried; yelle, ye okis of Basan, for the stronge welde wode is kit doun.
3 Tie nguanhwɛfo agyaadwo; wɔasɛe wɔn adidibea frɔmfrɔm no! Tie gyata no mmubomu; Yordan ho nkyɛkyerɛ fɛɛfɛ no asɛe!
Vois of yellyng of schepherdis, for the greet worschip of hem is distried; vois of roryng of liouns, for the pride of Jordan is wastid.
4 Sɛɛ na Awurade me Nyankopɔn se: “Fa nguankuw a wɔrebekum wɔn no kɔ adidibea.
My Lord God seith these thingis, Fede thou beestis of slauyter,
5 Atɔfo no kunkum nguan no na wɔntwe wɔn aso. Wɔn a wɔtɔn nguan no ka se, ‘Monkamfo Awurade, mayɛ ɔdefo!’ Na nguan no ahwɛfo no mpo nnya ahummɔbɔ mma wɔn.
whiche thei that weldiden slowen; and `sorewiden not, and selden hem, and seiden, Blessid be the Lord, we ben maad riche. And schepherdis of hem spariden not hem,
6 Merenhu asase no so nnipa mmɔbɔ bio,” sɛnea Awurade se ni. “Mede obiara bɛhyɛ ne yɔnko ne hene nsa. Wɔbɛhyɛ asase no so, na merennye obiara mfi wɔn nsam.”
and Y schal no more spare on `men enhabitynge the erthe, seith the Lord. Lo! Y schal bitake men, ech in hond of his neiybour, and in hoond of his kyng, and thei schulen to-reende togidere the lond; and Y schal not delyuere fro the hond of hem,
7 Enti mede nguankuw a wɔrekokum wɔn no kɔɔ adidibea, ne titiriw ne wɔn a wɔayɛ mmɔbɔ no. Afei mefaa pema abien, na mefrɛɛ baako Adɔe na baako nso Nkabom na mede wɔn kɔɔ adidi.
and Y schal fede the beeste of sleyng. For this thing, ye pore men of the floc, here. And Y took to me twei yerdis; oon Y clepide Fairnesse, and the tother Y clepide Litil Corde; and Y fedde the floc.
8 Ɔsram baako mu, mepam nguanhwɛfo abiɛsa no. Nguankuw no ampɛ me, na wɔmaa me brɛe
And Y kittide doun thre scheepherdis in o monethe, and my soule is drawun togidere in hem; for also the soule of hem variede in me.
9 na mekae se, “Merenyɛ mo hwɛfo bio. Wɔn a wɔrewu nwu, na wɔn a wɔreyera nso nyera. Na ma wɔn a aka no nso nkyekyere wɔn ho wɔn ho nwe.”
And Y seide, Y schal not fede you; that that dieth, die; and that that is kit doun, be kit doun; and the residues deuoure, ech the fleisch of his neiybore.
10 Afei mefaa me pema a mefrɛ no Adɔe no bubuu mu de sɛee apam a me ne aman no nyinaa ayɛ no.
And Y took my yerde, that was clepid Fairnesse, and Y kittide doun it, that Y schulde make void my couenaunt, that Y smoot with alle puplis.
11 Wɔsɛee no da no ara, na wɔn a wɔrehu amane wɔ nguankuw no mu a na wɔrehwɛ me no hui se, ɛyɛ Awurade asɛm.
And it `is led forth voide in that dai; and the pore of floc that kepen to me, knewen thus, for it is the word of the Lord.
12 Na meka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛ ɛbɛyɛ yiye a muntua me ka, na sɛ ɛnte saa nso a, momma ɛntena hɔ.” Enti, wotuaa dwetɛ mpɔw aduasa maa me.
And Y seide to hem, If it is good in youre iyen, brynge ye my meede; and if nai, reste ye. And thei weieden my meede, thretti platis of siluer.
13 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Tow ma ɔnwemfo no,” ɛbo a ɛsɔ ani a wɔatwa ama me no. Enti, mefaa dwetɛ mpɔw aduasa no, na metow maa ɔnwemfo a ɔwɔ Awurade fi mu no.
And the Lord seide to me, Caste awei it to a makere of ymagis, the fair prijs, bi which Y am preisid of hem. And Y took thritti platis of siluer, and Y castide forth hem in the hous of the Lord, to the makere of ymagis.
14 Afei mibuu me pema a ɛto so abien a wɔfrɛ no Nkabom no mu, de sɛee onuayɛ a ɛda Yuda ne Israel ntam no.
And Y kittide doun my secunde yerde, that was clepide Litil Corde, that Y schulde departe the brotherhed bitwixe Juda and Israel.
15 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me se, “Fa oguanhwɛfo kwasea no nneɛma no bio.
And the Lord seide to me, Yit take to thee vessels of a fonned scheepherde;
16 Na merebɛma oguanhwɛfo bi asɔre asase no so a ɔrenhwehwɛ nea wayera, ɔrenhwehwɛ nguantenmma no akyi kwan, ɔrensa nea wapira yare, ɔremma nea ɔwɔ ahoɔden aduan, na mmom, ɔbɛwe nguan a wɔadɔ no nam, na watwitwa wɔn tɔte.
for lo! Y schal reise a scheepherde in erthe, which schal not visite forsakun thingis, schal not seke scatered thingis, and schal not heele `the brokun togidere, and schal not nurische forth that that stondith. And he schal ete fleischis of the fat, and schal vnbynde the clees of hem.
17 “Nnome nka oguanhwɛfo a ne so nni mfaso, na oguan gya nguankuw no! Afoa ntwa ne basa, ne nʼaniwa nifa. Ne basa no nwu koraa, nʼaniwa nifa no mfura koraa!”
A! the scheepherd, and ydol, forsakynge the floc; swerd on his arm, and on his riyt iye; the arm of hym schal be dried with drynesse, and his riyt iye wexynge derk schal be maad derk.
