Hesekiel 11

1 Afei, honhom no pagyaa me de me baa Awurade efie ɛpono a ani kyerɛ apueeɛ fam no ano. Na mmarima aduonu enum wɔ hɔ, na mehunuu Asur babarima Yaasania ne Benaia babarima Pelatia a wɔyɛ nnipa no ntuanofoɔ.

And the spirit reiside me, and ledde me with ynne to the eest yate of the hous of the Lord, that biholdith the risyng of the sunne. And lo! in the entryng of the yate weren fyue and twenti men; and Y siy in the myddis of hem Jeconye, the sone of Assur, and Pheltie, the sone of Banaie, princes of the puple.

2 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, yeinom ne mmarima a wɔrebɔ pɔ bɔne na wɔtu fo bɔne wɔ kuropɔn yi mu.

And he seide to me, Thou, sone of man, these ben the men that thenken wickidnesse, and treten the worste counsel in this citee,

3 Wɔka sɛ, ‘Ɛberɛ a wɔde sisi afie nnuru so anaa? Kuropɔn no ayɛ sɛ dadesɛn, ɛnna yɛayɛ ɛnam a dadesɛn no bɔ yɛn ho ban.’

and seien, Whether housis weren not bildid a while ago? this is the cawdrun, forsothe we ben fleischis.

4 Ɛno enti hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn. Hyɛ nkɔm onipa ba.”

Therfor profesie thou of hem, profesie thou, sone of man.

5 Afei, Awurade Honhom baa me so na ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ. Menim deɛ moreka, ɛfiri sɛ menim nsusuiɛ a ɛwɔ mo adwene mu.

And the Spirit of the Lord felle in to me, and seide to me, Speke thou, The Lord seith these thingis, Ye hous of Israel spaken thus, and Y knewe the thouytis of youre herte;

6 Moakunkum nnipa bebree wɔ kuropɔn yi mu, na mode afunu ahyɛ ne mmɔntene so ma.

ye killiden ful many men in this citee, and ye filliden the weies therof with slayn men.

7 “Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Kuro no yɛ dadesɛn deɛ, nanso emu ɛnam no yɛ nnipa a mode atirimuɔden akunkum wɔn apete hɔ. Ɛno enti, mɛpam mo afiri mu.

Therfor the Lord seith these thingis, Youre slayn men, whiche ye puttiden in the myddis therof, these ben fleischis, and this is the cawdrun; and Y schal lede you out of the myddis therof.

8 Mosuro akofena, na ɛno ara na mede bɛba mo so, sei na Awurade seɛ.

Ye dredden swerd, and Y schal brynge in swerd on you, seith the Lord God.

9 Mɛpam mo afiri kuropɔn no mu na mede mo ahyɛ ananafoɔ nsa, na matwe mo aso.

And Y schal caste you out of the myddis therof, and Y schal yyue you in to the hond of enemyes, and Y schal make domes in you.

10 Mobɛtotɔ akofena ano, na mɛbu mu atɛn wɔ Israel asase so. Afei, mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.

Bi swerd ye schulen falle doun, Y schal deme you in the endis of Israel; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.

11 Saa kuropɔn yi remmɔ mo ho ban sɛdeɛ dadesɛn bɔ ɛnam a ɛwɔ mu no ho ban; Mɛbu mo atɛn wɔ Israel asase so.

This schal not be to you in to a cawdrun, and ye schulen not be in to fleischis in the myddis therof; Y schal deme you in the endis of Israel,

12 Na mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no, ɛfiri sɛ, moanni mʼahyɛdeɛ so, moapo me mmara, na deɛ aman a atwa mo ahyia no yɛ no na mo nso moyɛ.”

and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord. For ye yeden not in myn heestis, and ye dyden not my domes, but ye wrouyten bi the domes of hethene men, that ben in youre cumpas.

13 Afei ɛberɛ a megu rehyɛ nkɔm no, Benaia babarima Pelatia wuiɛ. Na mede mʼanim butuu fam suu denden sɛ, “Aa Otumfoɔ Awurade, wobɛtɔre Israel nkaeɛfoɔ yi ase koraa anaa?”

And it was doon, whanne Y profesiede, Pheltie, the sone of Banaie, was deed; and Y felle doun on my face, and Y criede with greet vois, and seide, Alas! alas! alas! Lord God, thou makist endyng of the remenauntis of Israel.

14 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,

And the word of the Lord was maad to me,

15 “Onipa ba, wo nua mmarimma, wɔn a wo ne wɔn yɛ mogya baako ne Israel efie nyinaa, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem kasa fa wɔn ho sɛ, ‘Saa nkurɔfoɔ a wɔkɔɔ nnommum no ne Awurade ntam ɛkwan ware, ɛno enti na wɔde wɔn asase yi ama yɛn sɛ yɛn agyapadeɛ.’”

and he seide, Sone of man, thi britheren, thi kynes men, and al the hous of Israel, and alle men, to whiche the dwelleris of Jerusalem seiden, Go ye awei fer fro the Lord, the lond is youun to vs in to possessioun.

16 “Ɛno enti ka sɛ, ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛwom sɛ mede wɔn kɔɔ akyirikyiri wɔ amanaman mu, hwetee wɔn guu nsase so deɛ, nanso berɛ tiawa bi mu no, meyɛɛ wɔn kronkronbea wɔ nsase a na wɔwɔ soɔ no so.’

Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For Y made hem fer among hethene men, and for Y scateride hem in londis, Y schal be to hem in to a litil halewyng, in the londis to whiche thei camen.

17 “Enti ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mɛboaboa mo ano afiri amanaman no ne nsase a mehwetee mo guu soɔ no asane aba, na mede Israel asase bɛsane ama mo.’

Therfor speke thou, The Lord God seith these thingis, Y schal gadere you fro puplis, and Y schal gadere you togidere fro londis, in whiche ye ben scatered; and Y schal yyue the erthe of Israel to you.

18 “Wɔbɛsane aba so na wɔayiyi nsɛsodeɛ tantane ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no nyinaa.

And thei schulen entre thidur, and schulen do awei alle offenciouns, and alle abhomynaciouns therof in that dai.

19 Mɛma wɔn akoma korɔ na mede honhom foforɔ ahyɛ wɔn mu; mɛyi wɔn akomaden no na mama wɔn akoma a ɛyɛ mmrɛ.

And Y schal yyue to hem oon herte, and Y schal yyue a newe spirit in the entrails of hem; and Y schal take awei a stony herte fro the fleisch of hem, and Y schal yyue to hem an herte of fleisch;

20 Afei wɔbɛdi mʼahyɛdeɛ so na wɔahwɛ akora me mmara yie. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mayɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.

that thei go in my comaundementis, and kepe my domes, and do tho; and that thei be in to a puple to me, and Y be in to God to hem.

21 Nanso wɔn a wɔde wɔn akoma ama nsɛsodeɛ tantane ne ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no deɛ, mɛma deɛ wɔayɛ no abɔ wɔn tiri so, sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ.”

But of whiche the herte goith after her offendyngis and abhomynaciouns, Y schal sette the weie of hem in her heed, seith the Lord God.

22 Afei, Kerubim no ne wɔn ntwahonan trɛtrɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu, na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam konkɔnn wɔn so.

And the cherubyns reisiden her wyngis, and the wheelis yeden with tho, and the glorie of God of Israel was on tho.

23 Awurade animuonyam pagyaa ne ho firii kuropɔn no mu kɔgyinaa bepɔ a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no atifi.

And the glorie of the Lord stiede fro the myddis of the citee, and stood on the hil, which is at the eest of the citee.

24 Honhom no pagyaa me de me baa atukɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ Babilonia no nkyɛn wɔ anisoadehunu a Onyankopɔn Honhom maa me no mu. Afei anisoadeɛ a mehunuiɛ no firii me so kɔɔ soro.

And the spirit reiside me, and brouyte me in to Caldee, to the passyng ouer, in visioun bi the spirit of God; and the visioun which Y hadde seyn, was takun awei fro me.

25 Na mekaa biribiara a Awurade yi kyerɛɛ me no kyerɛɛ atukɔfoɔ no.

And Y spak to the passyng ouer alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he hadde schewid to me.
