< Yesaia 35 >

1 Anweatam ne asase a awo no ani bɛgye; ɛserɛ bɛdi ahurisie na ayɛ frɔmm. Te sɛ nhwiren no,
They rejoice from the wilderness and dry place, And the desert rejoices, And flourishes as the rose,
2 ɛbɛpae ayɛ fɛɛfɛɛfɛ; ɛbɛdi ahurisie na ɛde anigyeɛ ateam. Wɔde Lebanon animuonyam bɛma anweatam no. Ɛbɛyɛ sɛ Karmel ne Saron ahoɔfɛ; wɔbɛhunu Awurade animuonyam, yɛn Onyankopɔn tumi no.
Flourishing it flourishes, and rejoices, Indeed, [with] joy and singing, The glory of Lebanon has been given to it, The beauty of Carmel and Sharon, They see the glory of YHWH, The majesty of our God.
3 Hyɛ nsa a emu ago no mu den, hyɛ nkotodwe a ahodwo no mu den;
Strengthen the feeble hands, Indeed, strengthen the stumbling knees.
4 Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔn akoma atu no sɛ, “Monhyɛ mo ho den, na monnsuro; mo Onyankopɔn bɛba, ɔde aweretɔ bɛba; ananmuhyɛ a ɛfiri ɔsoro bɛba abɛgye mo nkwa.”
Say to the hurried of heart, “Be strong, Do not fear, behold, your God; vengeance comes, The repayment of God, He Himself comes and saves you.”
5 Ɛno na wɔbɛbue anifirafoɔ ani, na wɔama asotifoɔ aso ate asɛm.
Then eyes of the blind are opened, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,
6 Ɛno na mpakye bɛhurihuri te sɛ ɔforoteɛ, na emum tɛkrɛma de anigyeɛ ateam. Nsuo bɛtue wɔ ɛserɛ so, na nsuwansuwa apue wɔ anweatam so.
Then the lame leap as a deer, And the tongue of the mute sings, For waters have been broken up in a wilderness, And streams in a desert.
7 Anwea a ɛso yɛ hyeɛ no bɛdane ɔtadeɛ, na nsuwansuwa atue wɔ asase wesee so. Atu a anka sakraman te mu no, ɛhɔ na ɛserɛ ne demmire ne paparɔs bɛfifirie.
And the mirage has become a pond, And the thirsty land—fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of lying down, A court for reed and rush.
8 Na ɔkwantempɔn bɛda hɔ; wɔbɛfrɛ no Ahoteefoɔ Kwan. Wɔn a wɔn ho nteɛ rentu ɛkwan wɔ so; ɛbɛda hɔ ama wɔn a wɔnante saa Ɛkwan no so; amumuyɛfoɔ nkwaseafoɔ rennante nante so.
And a highway has been there, and a way, And it is called the “Way of Holiness.” The unclean do not pass over it, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoever is going in the way—even fools do not err.
9 Gyata biara rentena hɔ, na nkekaboa biara rensi so; wɔrenhunu wɔn wɔ hɔ. Na wɔn a wɔagye wɔn nko ara na wɔbɛfa so,
No lion is there, Indeed, a destructive beast does not ascend it, It is not found there, And the redeemed have walked,
10 na wɔn a Awurade agye wɔn no bɛsane aba. Wɔde nnwontoɔ bɛhyɛne Sion; anigyeɛ a ɛnsa da bɛyɛ wɔn ahenkyɛ. Wɔbɛnya anigyeɛ ne ahosɛpɛ mmorosoɔ, na awerɛhoɔ ne apinisie bɛdwane akɔ.
And the ransomed of YHWH return, And have entered Zion with singing, And [with] continuous joy on their head, They attain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing have fled away!
