Yesaia 35
1 Anweatam ne asase a awo no ani bɛgye; ɛserɛ bɛdi ahurisie na ayɛ frɔmm. Te sɛ nhwiren no,
The wilderness and the dry land will be glad. The desert will rejoice and blossom like a 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.
It will blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing. Lebanon’s glory will be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They will see the LORD’s glory, the excellence of our God.
3 Hyɛ nsa a emu ago no mu den, hyɛ nkotodwe a ahodwo no mu den;
Strengthen the weak hands, and make the feeble knees firm.
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.”
Tell those who have a fearful heart, “Be strong! Don’t be afraid! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, God’s retribution. He will come and save you.
5 Ɛno na wɔbɛbue anifirafoɔ ani, na wɔama asotifoɔ aso ate asɛm.
Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be 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 man will leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute will sing; for waters will break out in the wilderness, and streams in the 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.
The burning sand will become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water. Grass with reeds and rushes will be in the habitation of jackals, where they lay.
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.
A highway will be there, a road, and it will be called “The Holy Way”. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it will be for those who walk in the Way. Wicked fools shall not go there.
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 will be there, nor will any ravenous animal go up on it. They will not be found there; but the redeemed will walk there.
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.
Then the LORD’s ransomed ones will return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy will be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.”
