Sakaria 14
1 Awurade ɛda bi reba a, wɔbɛkyɛ mo afodeɛ wɔ mo mu.
Behold, a day of the LORD is coming when your plunder will be divided in your presence.
2 Mɛboaboa aman no nyinaa ano abɛko atia Yerusalem; wɔbɛko afa kuropɔn no, wɔbɛwia afie mu nneɛma, na wɔato mmaa no monnaa. Wɔbɛfa kuropɔn no mu nnipa no mu fa akɔ nnommum mu, nanso nkaeɛfoɔ no bɛka kuropɔn no mu.
For I will gather all the nations for battle against Jerusalem, and the city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.
3 Afei, Awurade bɛkɔ akɔko atia saa aman no, sɛdeɛ ɔko ɔko da no.
Then the LORD will go out to fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle.
4 Saa ɛda no, ɔde nʼanammɔn bɛsisi Ngo Bepɔ a ɛwɔ Yerusalem apueeɛ fam no so, na Ngo Bepɔ no mu bɛpae mmienu afiri apueeɛ fam akɔsi atɔeɛ fam na ayɛ bɔnhwa kɛseɛ. Ɛbɛma bepɔ no fa akɔ atifi fam, na ɛfa nso akɔ anafoɔ fam.
On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half the mountain moving to the north and half to the south.
5 Mobɛdwane afa me bɔnhwa no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛkɔsi Asel. Mobɛdwane, sɛdeɛ moyɛɛ no ɛberɛ a asase wosooɛ wɔ Yudahene Usia berɛ so no. Afei, Awurade, me Onyankopɔn bɛba a ahotefoɔ nyinaa ka ne ho.
You will flee by My mountain valley, for it will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with Him.
6 Saa ɛda no, hann, awɔ ne nsukyeneeɛ remma.
On that day there will be no light, no cold or frost.
7 Ɛbɛyɛ ɛda soronko a ɛnni awiaberɛ anaa anadwo, ɛda a Awurade na ɔnim. Onwunu bɛdwoɔ no na hann wɔ hɔ.
It will be a day known only to the LORD, without day or night; but when evening comes, there will be light.
8 Saa ɛda no, nkwa nsuo bɛtene afiri Yerusalem. Ɛfa bɛkɔ apueeɛ ɛpo mu, na ɛfa akɔ atɔeɛ ɛpo mu, ahuhuro ne awɔ berɛ mu.
And on that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it toward the Eastern Sea and the other half toward the Western Sea, in summer and winter alike.
9 Awurade bɛdi ɔhene wɔ asase nyinaa so. Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛyɛ baako na ne din nso ayɛ baako pɛ.
On that day the LORD will become King over all the earth—the LORD alone, and His name alone.
10 Asase a ɛfiri Geba kɔsi Rimon a ɛda Yerusalem anafoɔ fam nyinaa bɛyɛ asase tamaa sɛ Araba. Nanso, wɔbɛma Yerusalem so ama nnipa atena hɔ afiri Benyamin Ɛpono akɔsi Ɛpono A Ɛdi Ɛkan, de akɔsi Ntweasoɔ Ɛpono ne Hananel Abantenten de akɔsi ɔhene no nsakyimena no ho.
All the land from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem will be turned into a plain, but Jerusalem will be raised up and will remain in her place, from the Benjamin Gate to the site of the First Gate to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses.
11 Nnipa bɛtena mu, na wɔrensɛe no bio. Yerusalem bɛnya asomdwoeɛ.
People will live there, and never again will there be an utter destruction. So Jerusalem will dwell securely.
12 Yei ne ɔyaredɔm a Awurade de bɛbɔ aman a wɔko tiaa Yerusalem no. Wɔn honam bɛporɔ ɛberɛ a wɔgyina wɔn nan so. Wɔn anikosua bɛporɔ wɔ wɔn ntokuro mu, na wɔn tɛkrɛma bɛporɔ wɔ wɔn anomu.
And this will be the plague with which the LORD strikes all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛma nnipa abɔ huboa, na wɔbɛtwa wɔn ho ako.
On that day a great panic from the LORD will come upon them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will rise against the other.
14 Yuda nso bɛko wɔ Yerusalem. Wɔbɛfa aman a atwa ahyia hɔ no nyinaa ahonyadeɛ a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne aduradeɛ bebree.
Judah will also fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected—gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
15 Saa ɔyaredɔm korɔ yi ara bɛka apɔnkɔ, mfunumpɔnkɔ, nyoma, mfunumu ne mmoa a aka a wɔwɔ atamfoɔ nsraban mu nyinaa.
And a similar plague will strike the horses and mules, camels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.
16 Afei wɔn a wɔbɛka wɔ aman a wɔko tiaa Yerusalem no nyinaa bɛkɔ akɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no afe biara, na wɔadi Asese Afahyɛ no.
Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
17 Sɛ ewiase mu nnipa bi ankɔ Yerusalem ankɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no a, osuo rentɔ mma wɔn.
And should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, then the rain will not fall on them.
18 Sɛ Misraimfoɔ ankɔ hɔ ankɔhyɛ fa no bi a, osuo rentɔ mma wɔn. Awurade de ɔyaredɔm a ɔma ɛba aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no so no bɛbɔ wɔn.
And if the people of Egypt will not go up and enter in, then the rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
19 Yei bɛyɛ asotwe ama Misraim ne aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no nyinaa.
This will be the punishment of Egypt and of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
20 Saa ɛda no, wɔbɛkrukyire asɛm a ɛka sɛ: KRONKRON MA Awurade wɔ adɔmma a ɛsensɛn apɔnkɔ kɔn mu ho, na nkukuo a wɔde noa aduane wɔ Awurade fie no bɛyɛ sɛ nkuruwa kronkron a ɛsisi afɔrebukyia anim.
On that day, HOLY TO THE LORD will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots in the house of the LORD will be like the sprinkling bowls before the altar.
21 Kukuo biara a ɛwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda bɛyɛ deɛ wɔate ho ama Asafo Awurade, na wɔn a wɔba bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ nyinaa bɛfa nkukuo yi bi anoa mu. Na saa ɛda no, wɔrenhunu Kanaanni wɔ Asafo Awurade fie bio.
Indeed, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts, and all who sacrifice will come and take some pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
