Yesaia 21
1 Nkɔmhyɛ a ɛfa Babilonia, anweatam no a ɛda Po no ho: Sɛdeɛ twahoframa a ɛbɔ fa anafoɔ fam asase so no yɛ no, saa ara na ɔtohyɛsoɔni bi firi anweatam so reba. Ɔfiri asase a ɛyɛ hunabɔbrim so.
Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki he toafa ʻoe tahi. ʻO hangē ʻoku ʻasi ʻi he feituʻu tonga ʻae ngaahi ʻahiohio; ʻoku pehē ʻae haʻu ia mei he toafa, mei he fonua fakamanavahē.
2 Wɔde anisoadehunu a ɛyɛ nwanwa akyerɛ me: Ɔfatwafoɔ bi redi hwammɔ. Ɔfomfoɔ bi refa afodeɛ. Elam reto ahyɛ ɔman bi so! Media rebɔ pampim! Mede apinisie a Babilonia de baeɛ no nyinaa bɛba awieeɛ.
ʻOku fakahā mai kiate au ʻae meʻa hā mai fakamanavahē; ʻoku fai kākā ʻe he kākā, pea kuo veteki ʻe ia ʻoku vete. ʻE ʻIlami, ke ke ʻalu hake: ʻE Mitia, ke ke fai ʻae kāpui; he kuo u fakaʻosi ʻene ngaahi mamahi kotoa pē.
3 Yei ama ɔyea bi abɛhyɛ me mu, ɔyea aka me, te sɛ ɔbaa a awoɔ aka no; deɛ meteɛ no enti mentumi nnyina me nan so, deɛ mehunu no ama me ho adwiri me.
Ko ia kuo fonu ai ʻi he mamahi hoku kongaloto: kuo kuku au ʻe he mamahi, ʻo hangē ko e mamahi ʻae fefine ʻoku langā: naʻaku mapelu ʻi he fanongo ki ai; pea ne u manavahē ʻi he sio ki ai.
4 Mʼakoma bɔ paripari, ehu ma me ho popo; na ɛhan a mepɛɛ sɛ mehunu no abɛyɛ adeɛ a ɛbɔ me hu.
ʻOku tateme hoku mafu, ʻoku ilifia ʻi he manavahē: kuo ne liliu ʻae pō ʻo ʻeku fiefia ko e manavahē kiate au.
5 Wɔto ɛpono, wɔde kuntu akɛtɛ sesɛ fam, wɔdidi, na wɔnom! Monsɔre mo asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ, momfa ngo nsrasra mo akyɛm ho!
“Teuteu ʻae keinangaʻanga, leʻo ʻi he fale leʻo, pea kai, mo inu: mou tuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi houʻeiki, pea tākai ʻae fakaū.”
6 Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛ me: “Fa ɔwɛmfoɔ kɔgyina hɔ na ɔnka deɛ ɔhunu nkyerɛ wo.
He kuo pehē ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, “ʻAlu, ʻo fakanofo ha tangata leʻo, ke ne fakahā ʻaia ʻoku ne mamata ki ai.
7 Sɛ ɔhunu nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ akuakuo, wɔn a wɔtete mfunumu so ne wɔn a wɔtete nyoma so a, ɔnwɛn nʼaso wɛn pa ara.”
Pea naʻa ne mamata ki he saliote mo e ongo tangata heka hoosi, ko e saliote mo e ngaahi ʻasi, pea mo e saliote mo e fanga kāmeli; pea naʻa ne fanongo ʻi he tokanga lahi:”
8 Na ɔwɛmfoɔ no teaam sɛ, “Me wura da biara megyina ɔwɛn aban no so anadwo biara, megyina hɔ.
Pea naʻa ne kalanga, ʻo hangē ko e laione: “Ko hoku ʻEiki, ʻoku ou tuʻumaʻu aipē ʻi he fale leʻo ʻi he ʻaho, pea ʻoku ou nofo ʻi hoku potu leʻo ʻi he ngaahi pō kotoa pē:
9 Hwɛ, ɔbarima bi a ɔte teaseɛnam mu na ɔreba yi ɔne apɔnkɔ dɔm. Na ɔwɛmfoɔ no kaa sɛ, ‘Babilonia ahwe ase, wahwe ase! Nʼanyame ne nʼahoni nyinaa abubu agu fam!’”
Pea vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae saliote mo e kau tangata, mo e ongo tangata heka hoosi.” Pea naʻa ne lea ʻo pehē mai, “Kuo hinga ʻa Papilone, kuo hinga; pea kuo ne laiki ki he kelekele ʻae fakatātā kotoa pē ʻo hono ngaahi ʻotua ʻoku tongi.”
10 Ao, me nkurɔfoɔ a wɔadwera mo wɔ ayuporeeɛ ase meka deɛ mateɛ kyerɛ mo, deɛ ɛfiri Asafo Awurade, deɛ ɛfiri Israel Onyankopɔn hɔ.
ʻOiauē! ʻAe meʻa kuo u haha, pea mo e uite ʻo hoku hahaʻanga: ko ia kuo u fanongo meia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko ia kuo u fakahā kiate koe.
11 Nkɔmhyɛ a ɛfa Duma ho: Obi frɛ me firi Seir, “Ɔwɛmfoɔ, berɛ bɛn na adeɛ bɛkye? Ɔwɛmfoɔ, aka nnɔnhwere ahe ansa na adeɛ akye?”
Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki Toma. ʻOku ne ui kiate au mei Seia, ʻae tangata leʻo, “ʻOku fēfē ʻae pō? ʻAe tangata leʻo, ʻoku fēfē ʻae pō?”
12 Ɔwɛmfoɔ no bua sɛ, “Adeɛ rekye, nanso adeɛ bɛsa. Sɛ wobɛbisa bio a sane bra bɛbisa.”
Naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata leʻo, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae pongipongi, pea mo e pō foki: kapau te mou fehuʻi, mou fehuʻi: tafoki, haʻu.”
13 Adehunu a ɛfa Arabia ho: Mo Dedan akwantufoɔ a mosoɛ wɔ Arabia adɔtɔ ase,
Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki ʻAlepea. ʻI he vao lahi ʻi ʻAlepea, te mou mohe, ʻakimoutolu ko e kaunga fononga ʻo Tetanimi.
14 Momfa nsuo mmrɛ wɔn a sukɔm de wɔn; mo a motete Tema, mommrɛ adwanefoɔ aduane.
Naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua ko Tima ʻae vai kiate ia naʻe fieinu, naʻa nau tokoni ʻaki ʻenau mā ʻakinautolu naʻe hola.
15 Wɔdwane firi akofena a watwe tadua a wɔakuntun mu ne ɔko a ɛgyina mu ano.
He naʻa nau hola mei he ngaahi heletā, mei he heletā kuo toʻo, pea mei he kaufana kuo teke, pea mo e ngaahi mamahi ʻoe tau.
16 Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛ me, “Afe baako mu no, sɛdeɛ wɔkan ɔpaani mfeɛ no, Kedar kɛseyɛ to bɛtwa.
He kuo pehē ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki kiate au, “ʻI he teʻeki ai kakato ha taʻu ʻe taha, hangē ko e ngaahi taʻu ʻo ha taha ʻoku ngāue kae totongi, ʻe ngata ʻo ʻosi ʻae lelei kotoa pē ʻo Keta:
17 Na agyantofoɔ a wɔbɛka ne Kedar akofoɔ bɛyɛ kakraa bi.” Deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, aka nie.
Pea ʻe fakatokosiʻi hono toe ʻoe lau ʻoe kau tangata fana, ʻi he kau tangata mālohi ʻoe fānau ʻo Keta: he kuo folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
