< Adiyisɛm 21 >
1 Afei, mehunuu ɔsoro foforɔ ne asase foforɔ, na kane ɔsoro ne kane asase no atwam, na ɛpo nso nni hɔ bio.
I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
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.
I saw the holy city, New Urishlim, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned 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.
I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look, the tabernacle of God is with humans, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
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 he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, nor will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the first things have passed away."
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.”
He who sits on the throne said, "Look, I am making all things new." He said, "Write, for these words are faithful 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.
He said to me, "It is done. I am the Alaph and the Tau, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.
7 Obiara a ɔbɛdi nkonim no bɛnya yei afiri me nkyɛn. Mɛyɛ ne Onyankopɔn na ɔno nso ayɛ me ba.
He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.
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 to the cowards, and unbelieving, and detestable, and murderers, and sexually immoral, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, 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.”
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, full of the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."
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.
He carried me away in the Rukha to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Urishlim, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 Ɛhyerɛn Onyankopɔn animuonyam mu, na ne hyerɛn no te sɛ aboɔdenboɔ a ɛsɛ ahwehwɛboɔ a ani te sɛ ahwehwɛ.
having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, as if it was a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
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.
having a great and high wall; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the people of Israyel.
13 Apono mmiɛnsa wɔ apueeɛ; mmiɛnsa wɔ anafoɔ; mmiɛnsa wɔ atifi ɛnna mmiɛnsa wɔ atɔeɛ.
On the east were three gates; and on the north three gates; and on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 Wɔsii kuro no afasuo sii aboɔ dumienu a wɔatwerɛ Odwammaa no asomafoɔ dumienu no din wɔ so no so.
The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔkasa kyerɛɛ me no kura sikakɔkɔɔ poma susudua a wɔde bɛsusu kuro no, nʼapono ne nʼafasuo.
He who spoke with me had for a measure, a golden reed, to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.
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.
The city lies foursquare, and its length is as great as its breadth. He measured the city with the reed, one thousand three hundred eighty miles. Its length, breadth, and height are equal.
17 Ɔbɔfoɔ no susuu ɔfasuo no nso a na ne ɔsorokɔ nso bɛyɛ sɛ mita aduosia.
Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits, by human measurement, that is, of an angel.
18 Ahwehwɛboɔ na ɔde too afasuo no. Na kuro no deɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ amapa a ɛhyerɛn te sɛ ahwehwɛ na wɔde toeɛ.
The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass.
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.
The foundations of the city's wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
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 fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; and the twelfth, 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.
The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 Na manhunu asɔredan wɔ kuro no mu baabiara ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade Onyankopɔn Otumfoɔ ne Odwammaa no ne asɔredan.
I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God of hosts and the Lamb are its temple.
23 Na owia anaa ɔsrane hann nhia kuro no ɛfiri sɛ, na Onyankopɔn ne Odwammaa no animuonyam hyerɛn wɔ hɔ.
The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 Ne hann no bɛhyerɛn asase so aman nyinaa so, na asase so aman so ahene de wɔn ahodeɛ bɛba hɔ.
The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring their splendor into it.
25 Wɔntoto kuro no apono mu. Ɛda biara ano da hɔ. Ɛfiri sɛ, esum nnuru wɔ hɔ.
Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26 Wɔde aman no kɛseyɛ ne wɔn ahonya bɛba kuro no mu.
and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it so that they may enter.
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.
There will in no way enter into it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.
