1 Memaa mʼani so bio, na mihuu nteaseɛnam anan a efi mmepɔw abien ntam reba, mmepɔw no yɛ kɔbere mfrafrae.
And Y was conuertid, and reiside myn iyen, and siy, and lo! foure horsid cartis goynge out of the myddil of tweyne hillis, and the hillis weren hillis of bras.
2 Teaseɛnam a edi kan no, na apɔnkɔ kɔkɔɔ na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ tuntum nso twe nea ɛto so abien no.
In the firste foure horsid carte weren reed horsis, and in the secounde foure horsid carte weren blac horsis;
3 Nea ɛto so abiɛsa no, na apɔnkɔ fitaa na wɔtwe. Nea ɛto so anan no, na apɔnkɔ ntokontrama na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ no nyinaa ho yɛ den.
and in the thridde foure horsid carte weren white horsis, and in the fourthe foure horsid carte weren dyuerse horsis, and stronge.
4 Mibisaa ɔbɔfo a na ɔne me rekasa no se, “Me wura, eyinom yɛ dɛn?”
And Y answeride, and seide to the aungel that spak in me, What ben these thingis, my lord?
5 Ɔbɔfo no buaa me se, “Eyinom yɛ ahonhom anan a wofi ɔsoro, na wɔrefi wiase nyinaa Awurade no anim akɔ.
And the aungel aunsweride, and seide to me, These ben foure wyndis of heuene, whiche goen out, that thei stonde bifor the lordschipere of al erthe.
6 Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ tuntum retwe no rekɔ ɔman a ɛwɔ atifi fam no so. Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ fitaa retwe no rekɔ atɔe fam; na nea apɔnkɔ ntokontrama twe no rekɔ anafo fam.”
In which weren blake horsis, wenten out in to the lond of the north; and the white wenten out aftir hem; and the dyuerse wenten out to the lond of the south.
7 Apɔnkɔ ahoɔdenfo no fii adi no, wɔpɛɛ sɛ wɔkɔ asase nyinaa so. Na ɔbɔfo no kae se, “Monkɔ asase nyinaa so!” Enti wɔkɔɔ asase so mmaa nyinaa.
Forsothe thei that weren strengeste wenten out, and souyten for to go, and renne aboute bi al erthe. And he seide, Go ye, and walke ye thorouy the erthe. And thei walkiden thorouy erthe.
8 Afei ɔfrɛɛ me se, “Hwɛ, wɔn a wɔrekɔ atifi fam man so no ama me Honhom ahomegye wɔ atifi fam asase no so.”
And he clepide me, and spak to me, and seide, Lo! thei that goon out in to lond of north, maden my spirit for to reste in the lond of north.
9 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn. Ɔkae se,
And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and seide,
10 “Gye sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ fi wɔn a wɔatwa wɔn asu, Heldai, Tobia ne Yedaia a wofi Babilonia aba no nkyɛn. Da no ara kɔ Sefania babarima Yosia fi.
Take thou of the transmygracioun, ether caitiftee, of Oldai, and of Tobie, and of Idaye; and thou schalt come in that dai, and schalt entre in to the hous of Josie, sone of Sofonye, that camen fro Babiloyne.
11 Gye dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ na fa yɛ ahenkyɛw, hyɛ ɔsɔfopanyin Yosua a ɔyɛ Yehosadak babarima no ti.
And thou schalt take gold and siluer, and schalt make corouns, and putte on the heed of Jhesu, the greet preest, sone of Josedech;
12 Ka kyerɛ no se, sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: ‘Ɔbarima a wɔfrɛ no Dubaa no ni, na ɔbɛfefɛw afi hɔ akosi Awurade asɔredan no.
and schalt speke to hym, and seie, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, seiynge, Lo! a man, Comynge forth, ether Borun, is his name, and vndir him it schal sprynge. And he schal bilde a temple to the Lord,
13 Ɔno na obesi Awurade asɔredan no, na wɔbɛhyɛ no anuonyam, na ɔbɛtena nʼahengua so adi ne hene, na ɔbɛyɛ ɔsɔfo wɔ nʼahengua so. Afei asomdwoe bɛba abien no ntam.’
and he schal make a temple to the Lord; and he schal bere glorie, and schal sitte, and schal be lord on his seete; and the preest schal be on his seete, and counsel of pees schal be bitwixe hem tweyne.
14 Wɔde ahenkyɛw no bɛma Heldai, Tobia, Yedaia ne Sefania babarima Hen, na wɔde ayɛ nkae ade wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
And corouns schulen be to Helem, and to Tobie, and to Idaie, and to Hen, sone of Sofonye, a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
15 Wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri no bɛba abɛboa Awurade asɔredan no si, na mubehu sɛ Asafo Awurade na wasoma me mo nkyɛn. Sɛ moyɛ osetie ma Awurade mo Nyankopɔn nokware mu a, eyi bɛba mu.”
And thei that ben fer, schulen come, and bilde in the temple of the Lord; and ye schulen wite, that the Lord of oostis sente me to you. Sotheli this thing schal be, if bi heryng ye schulen here the vois of youre Lord God.
