Sakaria 14
1 Awurade ɛda bi reba a, wɔbɛkyɛ mo afodeɛ wɔ mo mu.
Behold, a day of the LORD comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.
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 nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 Afei, Awurade bɛkɔ akɔko atia saa aman no, sɛdeɛ ɔko ɔko da no.
Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought 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.
His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward 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 shall flee by the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel. Yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. The LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
6 Saa ɛda no, hann, awɔ ne nsukyeneeɛ remma.
It will happen in that day that there will not be light, 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 unique day which is known to the LORD—not day, and not night; but it will come to pass that at evening time 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.
It will happen in that day that living waters will go out from Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea. It will be so in summer and in winter.
9 Awurade bɛdi ɔhene wɔ asase nyinaa so. Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛyɛ baako na ne din nso ayɛ baako pɛ.
The LORD will be King over all the earth. In that day the LORD will be one, and his name one.
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 will be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and will dwell in her place, from Benjamin’s gate to the place of the first gate, to the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel to the king’s wine presses.
11 Nnipa bɛtena mu, na wɔrensɛe no bio. Yerusalem bɛnya asomdwoeɛ.
Men will dwell therein, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.
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.
This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have fought against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.
13 Saa ɛda no, Awurade bɛma nnipa abɔ huboa, na wɔbɛtwa wɔn ho ako.
It will happen in that day that a great panic from the LORD will be among them; and they will each seize the hand of his neighbor, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor.
14 Yuda nso bɛko wɔ Yerusalem. Wɔbɛfa aman a atwa ahyia hɔ no nyinaa ahonyadeɛ a ɛyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne aduradeɛ bebree.
Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, silver, and clothing, in great abundance.
15 Saa ɔyaredɔm korɔ yi ara bɛka apɔnkɔ, mfunumpɔnkɔ, nyoma, mfunumu ne mmoa a aka a wɔwɔ atamfoɔ nsraban mu nyinaa.
A plague like this will fall on the horse, on the mule, on the camel, on the donkey, and on all the animals that will be 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.
It will happen that everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to keep the feast of booths.
17 Sɛ ewiase mu nnipa bi ankɔ Yerusalem ankɔsom Ɔhene no, Asafo Awurade no a, osuo rentɔ mma wɔn.
It will be that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn’t go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, on them there will be no rain.
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.
If the family of Egypt doesn’t go up and doesn’t come, neither will it rain on them. This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
19 Yei bɛyɛ asotwe ama Misraim ne aman a wɔnnkɔ Asese Afahyɛ no nyinaa.
This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
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.
In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “HOLY TO THE LORD”; and the pots in the LORD’s house will be like the 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.
Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
