Yesaia 55

1 “Mommra, mo a osukɔm de mo nyinaa, mommra nsuo no ho; na mo a monni sika, mommra mmɛtɔ na monni! Mommra mmɛtɔ nsã ne nufosuo a monntua hwee.

"Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters. Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

2 Adɛn enti na mosɛe sika wɔ deɛ ɛnyɛ aduane ho ne mo ahoɔden wɔ deɛ ɛmmee ho? Montie, montie me na monni deɛ ɛyɛ, na mo kra ani bɛgye nnepa a ɛwɔ akatua pa ho.

Why do you spend money for that which is not bread? and your labor for that which doesn't satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat you that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

3 Monyɛ aso, na mommra me nkyɛn; montie me, na mo kra anya nkwa. Me ne mo bɛyɛ apam a ɛte hɔ daa, me dɔ a ɛtoɔ ntwa da a mede hyɛɛ Dawid bɔ no.

Turn your ear, and come to me; hear, and your soul shall live: and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the faithful kindnesses of David.

4 Hwɛ, mede no ayɛ adansedie ama nnipa no, wɔn ɔkandifoɔ ne ɔsahene.

Look, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.

5 Ampa ara mobɛfrɛ aman a monnim wɔn, na aman a wonnim mo no bɛyɛ ntɛm aba mo nkyɛn, Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn enti, Israel Ɔkronkronni no, ɛfiri sɛ wahyɛ mo animuonyam.”

Look, you shall call a nation that you do not know; and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he has glorified you."

6 Monhwehwɛ Awurade ɛberɛ a mobɛhunu no. Momfrɛ no ɛberɛ a ɔbɛn.

Seek the LORD while he may be found; call you on him while he is near:

7 Ma omumuyɛfoɔ ntwe ne ho mfiri nʼakwan ho na ɔbɔnefoɔ nso mfiri ne nsusuiɛ ho. Ma ɔnnane nkɔ Awurade nkyɛn, na ɔbɛhunu no mmɔbɔ, ɔnnane nkɔ yɛn Onyankopɔn nkyɛn, na ɔde ne ho bɛkyɛ no.

let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

8 “Na mʼadwene nnyɛ mo adwene, na mo akwan nso nnyɛ mʼakwan,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," says the LORD.

9 “Sɛdeɛ ɔsoro korɔn sene asase no, saa ara na mʼakwan korɔn sene mo akwan, na mʼadwene nso korɔn sene mo adwene.

"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10 Osuo ne sukyerɛmma tɔ firi soro gu fam, na ɛnsane nkɔ hɔ bio gye sɛ afɔ asase ama afifideɛ ɛgu nhwiren, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛso aba ama ogufoɔ na aduane nso aba ama deɛ ɔdie.

For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and doesn't return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;

11 Saa ara na mʼasɛm a ɛfiri mʼanum teɛ: Ɛrensane mma me nkyɛn kwa. Mmom ɛbɛyɛ deɛ mepɛ na awie botaeɛ a ɛno enti mesomaa no.

so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing I sent it to do.

12 Mode ahosɛpɛ bɛpue na wɔagya mo kwan asomdwoeɛ mu; mmepɔ ne nkokoɔ bɛto nnwom wɔ mo anim, na mfuo so nnua nyinaa bɛbɔ wɔn nsam.

For you shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields shall clap their hands.

13 Nkyɛkyerɛ ananmu, pepeaa bɛfifiri, na nnɛnkyɛnse ananmu, ohwam dua bɛfifiri. Yei bɛyɛ deɛ ɛhyɛ Awurade animuonyam, ɛbɛyɛ daapem nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ, a ɛrentwam da.”

Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree; and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off."
