Hesekiel 32

1 Mfeɛ dumienu mu, bosome a ɛtɔ so dumienu no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:

And in the twelfth yeere in the twelfth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

2 “Onipa ba, to kwadwom fa Misraimhene Farao ho na ka kyerɛ no sɛ: “‘Wote sɛ gyata wɔ aman no mu: wote sɛ ɛpo mu aboa a ne ho yɛ hu wobubu afuni wɔ wo asutene mu, wode wo nan boro asutene no de hono nsuo no.

Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation for Pharaoh King of Egypt, and say vnto him, Thou art like a lyon of the nations and art as a dragon in the sea: thou castedst out thy riuers and troubledst the waters with thy feete, and stampedst in their riuers.

3 “‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Mede nipadɔm bɛba abɛto mʼasau agu wo so, na wɔbɛtwe wo afiri mʼasau mu.

Thus sayth the Lord God, I will therefore spread my net ouer thee with a great multitude of people, and they shall make thee come vp into my net.

4 Mɛto wo atwene asase no so na mahuri wo ato ɛserɛ so. Mɛma ewiem nnomaa nyinaa abɛsisi wo so na asase so mmoa nyinaa adi wo nam ɔherɛ so.

Then will I leaue thee vpon the land, and I will cast thee vpon the open field, and I wil cause all the foules of the heauen to remaine vpon thee, and I will fill all the beastes of the field with thee.

5 Mɛhata wo nam wɔ mmepɔ no so na mede wo funu ahyɛ mmɔnhwa ma.

And I will lay thy flesh vpon the mountaines, and fill the valleys with thine height.

6 Mede wo mogya a ɛretene no bɛfɔ asase no de akɔka mmepɔ no na wonam bɛhyɛ abɔn nketewa no ma.

I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, euen to ye mountaines, and the riuers shall be full of thee.

7 Sɛ metwa wo firi hɔ a, mɛkata ɔsoro ani na madundum wɔn nsoromma; mede omununkum bɛkata owia ani, na ɔsrane renhyerɛn.

And when I shall put thee out, I will couer the heauen, and make the starres thereof darke: I will couer the sunne with a cloude, and the moone shall not giue her light.

8 Ɔsoro nkanea a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa mɛma aduru sum wɔ wo so; mɛma esum aduru wʼasase, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.

All the lightes of heauen will I make darke for thee, and bring darkenesse vpon thy lande, sayeth the Lord God.

9 Mɛma nnipa bebree akoma atutu ɛberɛ a mede wo sɛeɛ aba aman no mu, nsase a wonnya nhunuiɛ mu.

I will also trouble the heartes of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations and vpon the countries which thou hast not knowen.

10 Mɛma nnipa bebree ho adwiri wɔn wɔ wo ho, wo enti, ehu bɛma wɔn ahene ho apopo ɛberɛ a merehim mʼakofena wɔ wɔn anim. Ɛda a wobɛhwe ase no wɔn mu biara ho bɛwoso berɛ nyinaa mu wɔ wɔn nkwa enti.

Yea, I will make many people amased at thee, and their Kings shalbe astonished with feare for thee, when I shall make my sworde to glitter against their faces, and they shall be afraide at euery moment: euery man for his owne life in the day of thy fall.

11 “‘Na sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: “‘Babiloniahene akofena bɛsɔre wo so.

For thus sayth the Lord God, The sworde of the King of Babel shall come vpon thee.

12 Mɛma wo nipadɔm no atotɔ wɔ nnɔmmarima akofena ano, wɔ aman a wɔyɛ tutugyagu mu. Wɔbɛsɛe Misraim ahomasoɔ pasaa na ne nipadɔm no nyinaa bɛdi nkoguo.

By the swordes of the mightie will I cause thy multitude to fall: they all shall be terrible nations, and they shall destroy the pompe of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shalbe consumed.

13 Mɛkunkum nʼanantwie nyinaa afiri nsuo bebree no ho na nnipa nan rentiatia mu bio na anantwie nan nso renhono no.

I will destroy also all the beastes thereof from the great watersides, neither shall the foote of man trouble them any more, nor the hooues of beast trouble them.

14 Afei mɛma ne nsuo ani ate na mama ne asutene atene sɛ ngo,

Then will I make their waters deepe, and cause their riuers to runne like oyle, sayeth the Lord God.

15 Sɛ mema Misraim da mpan na meyi biribiara firi asase no so, sɛ mekum wɔn a wɔte soɔ nyinaa a, afei na wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’

When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the countrey with all that is therein, shall be laid waste: when I shall smite all them which dwell therein, then shall they know that I am ye Lord.

16 “Yei ne kwadwom a wɔbɛto ama no. Amanaman no mmammaa bɛto ama Misraim ne ne nipadɔm nyinaa, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.”

This is the mourning wherewith they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for Egypt, and for all her multitude, sayeth the Lord God.

17 Afe a ɛtɔ so dumienu no no bosome ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunum no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:

In the twelfth yeere also in the fifteenth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord vnto me, saying,

18 “Onipa ba, twa adwo ma Misraim nipadɔm na ma ɔne amanaman akɛseɛ no mmammaa nsiane nkɔ asase ase nkɔka wɔn a wɔasiane kɔ amena mu no ho.

Sonne of man, lament for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them downe, euen them and the daughters of the mighty nations vnto the nether partes of the earth, with them that goe downe into the pit.

19 Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Wadom mo dodo sene wɔn a aka no anaa? Monsiane nkɔ na mo ne momonotofoɔ no nkɔda.’

Whome doest thou passe in beautie? goe downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised.

20 Wɔbɛka wɔn a wɔwuwuu wɔ akofena ano no ho. Wɔatwe akofena no, ma wɔntwe ɔno ne nipadɔm no ase nkɔ.

They shall fall in the middes of them that are slaine by the sword: shee is deliuered to the sword: draw her downe, and all her multitude.

21 Akannifoɔ akɛseɛ a wɔwɔ damena mu bɛka wɔ Misraim ne ne mpamfoɔ ho sɛ, ‘Wɔasiane aba na wodeda momonotofoɔ mu, wɔn a wɔwuwuu wɔ akofena ano no.’ (Sheol h7585)

The most mighty and strong shall speake to him out of the mids of hell with them that helpe her: they are gone downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised that be slaine by the sworde. (Sheol h7585)

22 “Asiria ne nʼasraadɔm nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔn a wakunkum wɔn no damena atwa ne ho ahyia, wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano no.

Asshur is there and all his companie: their graues are about him: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde.

23 Wɔn adamena no wɔ amena no ase tɔnn na nʼasraadɔm deda ne damena ho nyinaa. Wɔn a na wɔhunahuna afoforɔ wɔ ateasefoɔ asase so no nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano.

24 “Elam wɔ hɔ, ne nipadɔm nyinaa atwa ne damena ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano. Wɔn a na wɔhunahuna afoforɔ wɔ ateasefoɔ asase so nyinaa siane kɔɔ asase ase sɛ momonotofoɔ. Wɔde wɔn animguaseɛ kɔka wɔn a wɔsiane kɔ amena mu no ho.

There is Elam and all his multitude round about his graue: al they are slaine and fallen by the sword which are gone downe with the vncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused themselues to be feared in the land of the liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that are gone downe to the pit.

25 Wɔato mpa ama no wɔ atɔfoɔ no mu, na ne nipadɔm atwa ne damena ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofoɔ a wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano. Esiane sɛ wɔn ahunahuna trɛɛ wɔ ateasefoɔ asase soɔ no enti, wɔne wɔn a wɔsiane kɔ amena mu no nyinaa anim agu ase. Wɔadeda wɔn wɔ atɔfoɔ no mu.

They haue made his bed in the mids of the slaine with al his multitude: their graues are round about him: all these vncircucised are slaine by the sworde: though they haue caused their feare in the land of ye liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that goe downe to the pitte: they are laide in the middes of them, that be slaine.

26 “Mesek ne Tubal wɔ hɔ a wɔn nipadɔm atwa wɔn adamena ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofoɔ a wɔatotɔ wɔ akofena ano ɛfiri sɛ wɔtrɛtrɛɛ wɔn ahunahuna mu wɔ ateasefoɔ asase so.

There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude, their graues are round about them: al these vncircumcised were slaine by the sworde, though they caused their feare to be in ye land of the liuing.

27 Ɛnyɛ wɔ ne akofoɔ momonotofoɔ foforɔ a wɔatotɔ na ɛdeda hɔ anaa? Wɔn a wɔne wɔn akodeɛ siane kɔɔ damena mu na wɔn tiri deda wɔn akofena soɔ no. Wɔn amumuyɛ so asotwe daa wɔn nnompe so, mmom saa akofoɔ yi ahunahuna atrɛtrɛ wɔ ateasefoɔ asase so. (Sheol h7585)

And they shall not lie with the valiant of the vncircumcised, that are fallen, which are gone down to the graue, with their weapons of warre, and haue laied their swords vnder their heads, but their iniquitie shalbe vpon their bones: because they were the feare of the mighty in the lande of the liuing. (Sheol h7585)

28 “Ao Farao, wo nso wɔbɛbubu wo mu na woakɔda momonotofoɔ mu, wo ne wɔn a wɔtotɔɔ wɔ akofena ano no.

Yea, thou shalt be broken in the middes of the vncircumcised, and lie with them that are slaine by the sworde.

There is Edom, his Kings, and all his princes, which with their strength are laied by them that were slaine by the sworde: they shall sleepe with the vncircumcised, and with them that goe downe to the pit.

There be al the princes of the North, with al the Zidonians, which are gone downe with the slaine, with their feare: they are ashamed of their strength, and the vncircumcised sleepe with them that be slaine by the sword, and beare their shame with them that goe downe to the pit.

31 “Farao, ɔne nʼasraadɔm nyinaa bɛhunu wɔn na ne werɛ bɛkyekye wɔ ne nipadɔm a wɔkunkum wɔn wɔ akofena ano no ho, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
