Sakaria 14
1 Awurade da bi reba a, wɔbɛkyɛ mo asade wɔ mo mu.
Behold, a day of the LORD comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.
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 nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 Afei, Awurade bɛkɔ akɔko atia saa aman no, sɛnea ɔko, ɔkoda no.
Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought 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.
His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move towards the north, and half of it towards 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 shall flee by the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel. Yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. The LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
6 Saa da no, hann, awɔw ne sukyerɛmma remma.
It will happen in that day that there will not be light, 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 unique day which is known to the LORD—not day, and not night; but it will come to pass that at evening time 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.
It will happen in that day that living waters will go out from Jerusalem, half of them towards the eastern sea, and half of them towards the western sea. It will be so in summer and in winter.
9 Awurade bedi hene wɔ asase nyinaa so. Saa da no, Awurade bɛyɛ baako na ne din nso ayɛ baako pɛ.
The LORD will be King over all the earth. In that day the LORD will be one, and his name one.
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 will be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and will dwell in her place, from Benjamin’s gate to the place of the first gate, to the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel to the king’s wine presses.
11 Nnipa bɛtena mu, na wɔrensɛe no bio. Yerusalem benya asomdwoe.
Men will dwell therein, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.
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.
This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have fought against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.
13 Saa da no, Awurade bɛma nnipa abɔ huboa, na wobetwa wɔn ho ako.
It will happen in that day that a great panic from the LORD will be amongst them; and they will each seize the hand of his neighbour, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbour.
14 Yuda nso bɛko wɔ Yerusalem. Wɔbɛfa aman a atwa ahyia hɔ no nyinaa ahonyade a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne adurade bebree.
Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, silver, and clothing, in great abundance.
15 Saa ɔyaredɔm koro yi ara bɛka apɔnkɔ, mfurumpɔnkɔ, yoma, mfurum ne mmoa a aka a wɔwɔ atamfo nsra mu nyinaa.
A plague like this will fall on the horse, on the mule, on the camel, on the donkey, and on all the animals that will be 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.
It will happen that everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to keep the feast of booths.
17 Sɛ wiase mu nnipa bi ankɔ Yerusalem ankɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no a, osu rentɔ mma wɔn.
It will be that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn’t go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, on them there will be no rain.
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.
If the family of Egypt doesn’t go up and doesn’t come, neither will it rain on them. This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
19 Eyi bɛyɛ asotwe ama Misraim ne aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no nyinaa.
This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
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.
In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “HOLY TO THE LORD”; and the pots in the LORD’s house will be like the 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.
Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
