< Adiyisɛm 21 >
1 Afei, mehunuu ɔsoro foforɔ ne asase foforɔ, na kane ɔsoro ne kane asase no atwam, na ɛpo nso nni hɔ bio.
And I sawe a newe heauen, and a newe earth: for the first heauen, and the first earth were passed away, and there was no more sea.
2 Na mehunuu Kuro Kronkron a ɛyɛ Yerusalem foforɔ sɛ ɛfiri Onyankopɔn hɔ wɔ ɔsoro reba fam, a wasiesie ne ho te sɛ ayeforɔ a ɔrekɔhyia ne kunu.
And I Iohn sawe the holie citie newe Hierusalem come downe from God out of heauen, prepared as a bride trimmed for her husband.
3 Metee nne denden bi firi ahennwa no so sɛ, “Afei, Onyankopɔn atenaeɛ wɔ nnipa mu. Ɔne wɔn bɛtena na wɔayɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ. Onyankopɔn no ankasa ne wɔn bɛtena na wayɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.
And I heard a great voice out of heauen, saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them: and they shalbe his people, and God himselfe shalbe their God with them.
4 Na ɔbɛpepa wɔn aniwa mu nisuo nyinaa. Na owuo nni hɔ bio, na awerɛhoɔ ne osu ne yea nni hɔ bio. Na kane nneɛma no atwam.”
And God shall wipe away all teares from their eyes: and there shalbe no more death, neither sorow, neither crying, neither shall there be any more paine: for the first things are passed.
5 Afei, deɛ ɔte ahennwa no so no kaa sɛ, “Afei, mereyɛ nneɛma nyinaa foforɔ!” Ɔka kyerɛɛ me nso sɛ, “Twerɛ yei, ɛfiri sɛ, saa nsɛm yi yɛ nokorɛ a wɔde wɔn ho to so.”
And he that sate vpon the throne, sayd, Behold, I make all things newe: and he sayde vnto me, Write: for these wordes are faithfull and true.
6 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Wɔawie! Me ne Alfa ne Omega, Ahyɛaseɛ ne Awieeɛ no. Obiara a sukɔm de no no, mɛma no nsuo a ɛfiri nkwa asutire mu anom kwa.
And he said vnto me, It is done, I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ende. I wil giue to him that is a thirst, of the well of the water of life freely.
7 Obiara a ɔbɛdi nkonim no bɛnya yei afiri me nkyɛn. Mɛyɛ ne Onyankopɔn na ɔno nso ayɛ me ba.
He that ouercommeth, shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my sonne.
8 Nanso, ahufoɔ ne wɔn a wɔnnye nni ne akyiwadeyɛfoɔ ne awudifoɔ ne adwamanfoɔ ne adutofoɔ ne abosonsomfoɔ ne atorofoɔ nyinaa bɛnya wɔn kyɛfa wɔ ɔtadeɛ a ogya ne sɔfe dɛre wɔ mu no. Ɛno ne owuprenu no.” (Limnē Pyr )
But the fearful and vnbeleeuing, and the abominable and murtherers, and whoremogers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars shall haue their part in the lake, which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. (Limnē Pyr )
9 Abɔfoɔ baason a wɔkurakura nkuruwa nson a ɔhaw nson a ɛtwa toɔ no ahyɛ ma wɔ mu baako baa me nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Bra, na mɛkyerɛ wo Ayeforɔ a ɔyɛ Odwammaa no yere no.”
And there came vnto mee one of the seuen Angels, which had the seuen vials full of the seuen last plagues, and talked with mee, saying, Come: I will shewe thee the bride, the Lambes wife.
10 Honhom no faa me, na ɔbɔfoɔ no de me kɔɔ bepɔ tenten bi atifi. Ɔkyerɛɛ me Yerusalem, Kuro Kronkron a ɛfiri ɔsoro, Onyankopɔn hɔ, resiane aba fam.
And he caried me away in the spirit to a great: and an hie mountaine, and he shewed me that great citie, that holie Hierusalem, descending out of heauen from God,
11 Ɛhyerɛn Onyankopɔn animuonyam mu, na ne hyerɛn no te sɛ aboɔdenboɔ a ɛsɛ ahwehwɛboɔ a ani te sɛ ahwehwɛ.
Hauing the glorie of God: and her shining was like vnto a stone most precious, as a Iasper stone cleare as crystall,
12 Na ne ɔfasuo no wɔ ahoɔden na ɛware yie nso. Apono dumienu gu ano a, abɔfoɔ dumienu na wɔhwɛ so. Na ɛpono biara so no wɔatwerɛ Israel mmusuakuo dumienu no mu baako din.
And had a great wall and hie, and had twelue gates, and at the gates twelue Angels, and the names written, which are the twelue tribes of the children of Israel.
13 Apono mmiɛnsa wɔ apueeɛ; mmiɛnsa wɔ anafoɔ; mmiɛnsa wɔ atifi ɛnna mmiɛnsa wɔ atɔeɛ.
On the East part there were three gates, and on the Northside three gates, on the Southside three gates, and on the Westside three gates.
14 Wɔsii kuro no afasuo sii aboɔ dumienu a wɔatwerɛ Odwammaa no asomafoɔ dumienu no din wɔ so no so.
And the wall of the citie had twelue foundations, and in them the Names of the Lambes twelue Apostles.
15 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔkasa kyerɛɛ me no kura sikakɔkɔɔ poma susudua a wɔde bɛsusu kuro no, nʼapono ne nʼafasuo.
And hee that talked with mee, had a golden reede, to measure the citie withall, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 Na kuro no yɛ ahinanan a ne tenten ne ne trɛ yɛ pɛ. Ɔbɔfoɔ no de ne susudua no susuu kuro no. Na ne tenten yɛ kilomita mpem mmienu ne ahanan, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ, ne ɔsorokɔ ne ne tenten nyinaa yɛ pɛ.
And the citie laie foure square, and the length is as large as the bredth of it, and he measured the citie with the reede, twelue thousande furlongs: and the length, and the bredth, and the height of it are equall.
17 Ɔbɔfoɔ no susuu ɔfasuo no nso a na ne ɔsorokɔ nso bɛyɛ sɛ mita aduosia.
And hee measured the wall thereof, an hundreth fourtie and foure cubites, by the measure of man, that is, of the Angell.
18 Ahwehwɛboɔ na ɔde too afasuo no. Na kuro no deɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ amapa a ɛhyerɛn te sɛ ahwehwɛ na wɔde toeɛ.
And ye building of the wall of it was of Iasper: and the citie was pure golde, like vnto cleare glasse.
19 Wɔde aboɔdenboɔ ahodoɔ a ɛyɛ fɛ na ɛhyehyɛɛ kuro no fapem. Fapem a ɛdi ɛkan yɛ ahwehwɛboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so mmienu yɛ aboɔdemmoɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa yɛ omununkumboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so ɛnan yɛ ahahammonoboɔ.
And the foundations of the wall of ye city were garnished with all maner of precious stones: the first foundation was Iasper: the second of Saphire: the third of a Chalcedonie: the fourth of an Emeraude:
20 Fapem a ɛtɔ so enum yɛ ɛtɔnboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so nsia yɛ bogyanamboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so nson yɛ sikabereɛboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe yɛ apopobibirieboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so nkron yɛ akraateboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so edu yɛ dɛnkyɛmmoɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so dubaako yɛ wisiboɔ. Fapem a ɛtɔ so dumienu yɛ beredumboɔ.
The fift of a Sardonix: the sixt of a Sardius: the seueth of a Chrysolite: the eight of a Beryl: the ninth of a Topaze: the tenth of a Chrysoprasus: the eleuenth of a Iacynth: the twelfth an Amethyst.
21 Na wɔde nhwene pa dumienu na ɛyɛɛ apono dumienu no. Apono no mu biara, wɔde ahene pa baako na ɛyɛeɛ. Na kuro no abɔntene kɛseɛ yɛ sika amapa kronn a ɛte sɛ ahwehwɛ.
And the twelue gates were twelue pearles, and euery gate is of one pearle, and the streete of the citie is pure golde, as shining glasse.
22 Na manhunu asɔredan wɔ kuro no mu baabiara ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade Onyankopɔn Otumfoɔ ne Odwammaa no ne asɔredan.
And I sawe no Temple therein: for the Lord God almightie and the Lambe are the Temple of it.
23 Na owia anaa ɔsrane hann nhia kuro no ɛfiri sɛ, na Onyankopɔn ne Odwammaa no animuonyam hyerɛn wɔ hɔ.
And this citie hath no neede of the sunne, neither of the moone to shine in it: for the glorie of God did light it: and the Lambe is the light of it.
24 Ne hann no bɛhyerɛn asase so aman nyinaa so, na asase so aman so ahene de wɔn ahodeɛ bɛba hɔ.
And the people which are saued, shall walke in the light of it: and the Kings of the earth shall bring their glorie and honour vnto it.
25 Wɔntoto kuro no apono mu. Ɛda biara ano da hɔ. Ɛfiri sɛ, esum nnuru wɔ hɔ.
And the gates of it shall not be shut by day: for there shalbe no night there.
26 Wɔde aman no kɛseyɛ ne wɔn ahonya bɛba kuro no mu.
And the glorie, and honour of the Gentiles shall be brought vnto it.
27 Nanso, biribiara a ɛho nte nkɔ kuro no mu. Saa ara na obi a ɔyɛ aniwudeɛ anaa ɔtwa atorɔ nkɔ mu. Wɔn a wɔatwerɛ wɔn din ahyɛ Odwammaa no nkwa nwoma no mu no nko ara na wɔbɛkɔ kuro no mu.
And there shall enter into it none vncleane thing, neither whatsoeuer woorketh abomination or lies: but they which are written in ye Lambes booke of life.
