Sakaria 14
1 Awurade da bi reba a, wɔbɛkyɛ mo asade wɔ mo mu.
Behold, a day of the LORD is coming when your plunder will be divided in your presence.
2 Mɛboaboa aman no nyinaa ano abɛko atia Yerusalem; wɔbɛko afa kuropɔn no, wobewia afi mu nneɛma, na wɔato mmea no mmonnaa. Wɔbɛfa kuropɔn no mu nnipa no mu fa akɔ nnommum mu, nanso nkae no bɛka kuropɔn no mu.
For I will gather all the nations for battle against Jerusalem, and the city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.
3 Afei, Awurade bɛkɔ akɔko atia saa aman no, sɛnea ɔko, ɔkoda no.
Then the LORD will go out to fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle.
4 Saa da no, ɔde nʼanammɔn besisi Ngo Bepɔw a ɛwɔ Yerusalem apuei fam no so, na Ngo Bepɔw no mu bɛpae abien afi apuei fam akosi atɔe fam na ayɛ obon kɛse. Ɛbɛma bepɔw no fa akɔ atifi fam, na fa nso akɔ anafo fam.
On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half the mountain moving to the north and half to the south.
5 Mubeguan afa me bon no mu, efisɛ ekosi Asel. Mubeguan, sɛnea moyɛɛ no bere a asase wosow wɔ Yudahene Usia bere so no. Afei, Awurade, me Nyankopɔn, bɛba a ahotefo nyinaa ka ne ho.
You will flee by My mountain valley, for it will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with Him.
6 Saa da no, hann, awɔw ne sukyerɛmma remma.
On that day there will be no light, no cold or frost.
7 Ɛbɛyɛ da sononko a enni awia anaa anadwo, da a Awurade na onim. Onwini bedwo no na hann wɔ hɔ.
It will be a day known only to the LORD, without day or night; but when evening comes, there will be light.
8 Saa da no, nkwa nsu bɛteɛ afi Yerusalem, fa bɛkɔ apuei po mu, na fa akɔ atɔe po mu, ahohurubere ne awɔwbere mu.
And on that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it toward the Eastern Sea and the other half toward the Western Sea, in summer and winter alike.
9 Awurade bedi hene wɔ asase nyinaa so. Saa da no, Awurade bɛyɛ baako na ne din nso ayɛ baako pɛ.
On that day the LORD will become King over all the earth—the LORD alone, and His name alone.
10 Asase a efi Geba kosi Rimon a ɛda Yerusalem anafo fam nyinaa bɛyɛ sɛ Araba. Nanso wɔbɛma Yerusalem so; efi Benyamin Pon kosi Ɔpon A Edi Kan de kɔ Ntwea so Pon, afei efi Hananel Abantenten kosi adehye nsakyiamoa nyinaa, na ɛbɛtena ne sibea.
All the land from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem will be turned into a plain, but Jerusalem will be raised up and will remain in her place, from the Benjamin Gate to the site of the First Gate to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses.
11 Nnipa bɛtena mu, na wɔrensɛe no bio. Yerusalem benya asomdwoe.
People will live there, and never again will there be an utter destruction. So Jerusalem will dwell securely.
12 Eyi ne ɔyaredɔm a Awurade de bɛbɔ aman a wɔko tiaa Yerusalem no. Wɔn honam bɛporɔw bere a wogyina wɔn anan so, Wɔn aniwa nkesua bɛporɔw wɔ wɔn ntokuru mu, na wɔn tɛkrɛma bɛporɔw wɔ wɔn anom.
And this will be the plague with which the LORD strikes all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 Saa da no, Awurade bɛma nnipa abɔ huboa, na wobetwa wɔn ho ako.
On that day a great panic from the LORD will come upon them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will rise against the other.
14 Yuda nso bɛko wɔ Yerusalem. Wɔbɛfa aman a atwa ahyia hɔ no nyinaa ahonyade a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne adurade bebree.
Judah will also fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected—gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
15 Saa ɔyaredɔm koro yi ara bɛka apɔnkɔ, mfurumpɔnkɔ, yoma, mfurum ne mmoa a aka a wɔwɔ atamfo nsra mu nyinaa.
And a similar plague will strike the horses and mules, camels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.
16 Afei wɔn a wɔbɛka wɔ aman a wɔko tiaa Yerusalem no nyinaa bɛkɔ akɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no afe biara, na wɔadi Asese Afahyɛ no.
Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
17 Sɛ wiase mu nnipa bi ankɔ Yerusalem ankɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no a, osu rentɔ mma wɔn.
And should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, then the rain will not fall on them.
18 Sɛ Misraimfo ankɔ hɔ ankɔhyɛ fa no bi a, osu rentɔ mma wɔn. Awurade de ɔyaredɔm a ɔma ɛba aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no so no bɛbɔ wɔn.
And if the people of Egypt will not go up and enter in, then the rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
19 Eyi bɛyɛ asotwe ama Misraim ne aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no nyinaa.
This will be the punishment of Egypt and of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
20 Saa da no, wobekurukyerɛw asɛm a ɛka se: KRONKRON MA Awurade wɔ nnɔnnɔmma a ɛsensɛn apɔnkɔ kɔn mu ho, na nkuku a wɔde noa aduan wɔ Awurade fi no bɛyɛ sɛ nkuruwa kronkron a esisi afɔremuka anim.
On that day, HOLY TO THE LORD will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots in the house of the LORD will be like the sprinkling bowls before the altar.
21 Kuku biara a ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda bɛyɛ nea wɔatew ho ama Asafo Awurade, na wɔn a wɔba bɛbɔ afɔre nyinaa bɛfa nkuku yi bi anoa mu. Na saa da no, wɔrenhu Kanaanni wɔ Asafo Awurade fi bio.
Indeed, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts, and all who sacrifice will come and take some pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
