Sefania 2

1 Mommoaboa mo ho ano, mommoaboa mo ho ano, mo, animguaseman,

Come ye togidere, be gaderid, ye folc not worthi to be loued,

2 ansa na bere a wɔahyɛ no adu, na da no resen te sɛ ntɛtɛ, ansa na Awurade abufuwhyew no aba mo so, ansa na Awurade abufuw da no aba mo so.

bifore that comaundyng brynge forth as dust passyng dai; bifore that wraththe of strong veniaunce of the Lord come on you, bifor that the dai of his indignacioun come on you.

3 Monhwehwɛ Awurade, ahobrɛasefo a mowɔ asase so, mo a moyɛ nʼahyɛde. Monhwehwɛ trenee, monhwehwɛ ahobrɛase; ebia ɔbɛkora mo so Awurade abufuw da no.

Alle myelde men of erthe, seke ye the Lord, whiche han wrouyt the doom of hym; seke ye the iust, seke ye the mylde, if ony maner ye be hid in the dai of strong veniaunce of the Lord.

4 Wobegyaw Gasa na wɔagyaw Askelon sɛ amamfo. Owigyinae na wɔbɛma Asdod ada mpa mu na wɔatutu Ekron ase.

For Gasa schal be distried, and Ascalon schal be in to desert; thei schulen caste out Azotus in myddai, and Accaron schal be drawun out bi the root.

5 Munnue, mo a mote mpoano, mo Keretifo; Awurade asɛm tia mo. Kanaan, Filistifo asase. Mɛtɔre mo ase, na obiara renka.

Wo to you that dwellen in the litil part of the see, a folc of loste men. The word of the Lord on you, Canaan, the lond of Filisteis, and Y schal distrie thee, so that a dwellere be not;

6 Asase a ɛda mpoano, faako a Keretifo te bɛyɛ atenae ama nguanhwɛfo ne wɔn nguannan.

and the litil part of the see schal be reste of scheepherdis, and foldis of scheep.

7 Saa asase no bɛyɛ Yudafi nkae no de; ɛhɔ na wobenya mmoa adidibea. Anwummere, wɔbɛdeda wɔ Askelon afi mu. Na Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn bɛhwɛ wɔn, na ɔde wɔn ahonyade nyinaa bɛsan ama wɔn.

And it schal be a litil part of hym, that schal be left of the hous of Juda, there thei schulen be fed in the housis of Ascalon; at euentid thei schulen reste, for the Lord God of hem schal visite hem, and schal turne awei the caitifte of hem.

8 “Mate Moab nsopa ne Amonfo atweetwee; wɔn a wɔsopaa me nkurɔfo na wohunahunaa wɔn wɔ wɔn asase ho.

Y herde the schenschip of Moab, and blasfemyes of sones of Amon, whiche thei seiden schentfuli to my puple, and thei weren magnefied on the termes of hem.

9 Enti sɛ mete ase yi,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni, “Ampa ara Moab bɛyɛ sɛ Sodom, na Amonfo ayɛ sɛ Gomora, faako a nwura ne nkyene amoa wɔ, bɛyɛ asase a ɛda mpan afebɔɔ. Me man nkae bɛfow wɔn afa; me manfo a wobenya wɔn ti adidi mu no bɛfa wɔn asase.”

Therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, for Moab schal be as Sodom, and the sones of Amon as Gomorre; drynesse of thornes, and hepis of salt, and desert, til in to withouten ende. The relifs of my puple schulen rauysche hem, the residues of my folc schulen welde hem.

10 Wɔn ahantan so akatua a wobenya ni, sɛ wɔyeyaw na wodi Asafo Awurade nkurɔfo ho fɛw nti.

Sotheli this thing schal come to hem for her pride, for thei blasfemeden, and weren magnefied on the puple of the Lord of oostis.

11 Awurade ho suro bɛba wɔn so bere a ɔbɛsɛe asase no so anyame nyinaa. Mpoano aman nyinaa bɛsɔre no, wɔ wɔn ankasa wɔn asase so.

The Lord schal be orible on hem, and he schal make feble alle goddis of erthe; and men of her place schulen worschipe hym, alle the ilis of hethene men.

12 “Mo Etiopiafo nso, mʼafoa ano na wobekunkum mo.”

But and ye, Ethiopiens, schulen be slayn bi my swerd.

13 Awurade bɛteɛ ne nsa wɔ atifi aman so na wasɛe Asiria, na wama Ninewe ada mpan koraa na so awo wosee sɛ nwea pradada so.

And he schal stretche forth his hond on the north, and schal leese Assur; and he schal putte the feir citee Nynyue in to wildirnesse, and into with out weie, and as desert.

14 Nguankuw ne anantwi bɛdeda hɔ, mmoadoma nyinaa. Sare so patu ne abonsamnoma bɛtena nʼadum no so. Wɔn su begyigye afa mfɛnsere mu, nnwiriwii besisiw apon ano akwan, mpuran a wɔde sida ayɛ no ho bɛdeda hɔ.

And flockis, and alle the beestis of folkis, schulen ligge in the myddil therof; and onacratalus, and irchun schulen dwelle in threshfoldis therof; vois of the syngynge in wyndow, and crow in the lyntil, for Y schal make thinne the strengthe therof.

15 Eyi ne kuropɔn a edi ahurusi na ɛte asomdwoe mu. Ɔhoahoaa ne ho se, “Me ne no, obiara nte sɛ me.” Hwɛ sɛnea atetew apansam, na ayɛ nkekammoa atenae! Obiara a otwa mu wɔ hɔ no serew no, him ne nsa fɛwdi so.

This is the gloriouse citee dwellynge in trist, which seide in hir herte, Y am, and ther is noon other more withouten me. Hou is it maad vnto desert, a couche of beeste; ech man that schal passe bi it, schal hisse, and schal moue his hond.
