Adiyisɛm 16

1 Afei, metee nne bi sɛ ɛrekasa firi asɔredan mu hɔ kyerɛ abɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Mo nkɔ nkɔhwie Onyankopɔn abufuo nson a ɛwɔ nkuruwa nson mu no ngu asase so.”

And a great voice out of the house of God came to my ears, saying to the seven angels, Go, and let that which is in the seven vessels of the wrath of God come down on the earth.

2 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔdi ɛkan no kɔhwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu asase so. Akuro a ɛyɛ hu na ɛyɛ yea tutuu wɔn a wɔde aboa no ahyɛ wɔn ho agyiraeɛ no ne wɔn a wɔsom ne sɛso ohoni no nso.

And the first went, and let what was in his vessel come down on the earth; and it became an evil poisoning wound on the men who had the mark of the beast, and who gave worship to his image.

3 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so mmienu no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu ɛpo mu. Nsuo no danee sɛ owufoɔ mogya, na abɔdeɛ biara a nkwa wɔ mu wɔ ɛpo no mu no wuiɛ.

And the second let what was in his vessel come out into the sea; and it became blood as of a dead man; and every living thing in the sea came to an end.

4 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so mmiɛnsa no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu nsubɔntene ne nsuwa mu maa ne nyinaa danee mogya.

And the third let what was in his vessel come out into the rivers and the fountains of water; and they became blood.

5 Metee sɛ ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔhwɛ nsuo so no reka sɛ, “wʼatɛn a wobuo no yɛ atɛntenenee. Ɔkronkronni a wowɔ hɔ na wowɔ ha dada,

And the voice of the angel of the waters came to my ears, saying, True and upright is your judging, O Holy One, who is and was from all time:

6 ɛfiri sɛ wahwie mo ahotefoɔ ne adiyifoɔ mogya agu, woama wɔn mogya sɛ wɔnnom, sɛdeɛ ɛfata wɔn.”

For they made the blood of saints and prophets come out like a stream, and blood have you given them for drink; which is their right reward.

7 Afei, metee nne bi wɔ afɔrebukyia no so sɛ, “Aane, Awurade, Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn, atɛn a wobu nyinaa yɛ atɛntenenee!”

And a voice came from the altar, saying, Even so, O Lord God, Ruler of all, true and full of righteousness is your judging.

8 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so ɛnan no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu owia so na wɔmaa no tumi sɛ ɔnhye nnipa.

And the fourth let what was in his vessel come out on the sun; and power was given to it that men might be burned with fire.

9 Owia hyeɛ no anoden maa nnipa domee Onyankopɔn a ɔwɔ saa ɔhaw yi nyinaa so tumi no din. Nanso, wɔannu wɔn ho anhyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam.

And men were burned with great heat: and they said evil things against the name of the God who has authority over these punishments; and they were not turned from their evil ways to give him glory.

10 Afei, ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so enum no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu aboa no ahennwa no so. Esum duruu aboa no ahemman mu, na ɛsiane yea enti, nnipa wee wɔn tɛkrɛma;

And the fifth let what was in his vessel come out on the high seat of the beast; and his kingdom was made dark; and they were biting their tongues for pain.

11 na ɛsiane saa yea no ne akuro a ɛtutuu wɔn no enti, wɔdomee ɔsoro Onyankopɔn. Nanso, wɔantwe wɔn ho amfiri wɔn bɔne ho.

And they said evil things against the God of heaven because of their pain and their wounds; and they were not turned from their evil works.

12 Ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so nsia no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu Asubɔnten Eufrate mu. Asuo no weweeɛ, danee ɛkwan maa ahene a wɔfiri apueeɛ.

And the sixth let what was in his vessel come out on the great river Euphrates; and it became dry, so that the way might be made ready for the kings from the east.

13 Afei, mehunuu ahonhommɔne mmiɛnsa bi a na wɔte sɛ mponkyerɛne a na wɔfifiri ɔtweaseɛ no ne aboa no ne atorɔ odiyifoɔ no anom.

And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, like frogs.

14 Wɔyɛ ahonhommɔne a wɔyɛ anwanwadeɛ. Saa ahonhom mmiɛnsa yi kɔ ahene a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa nkyɛn kɔka wɔn nyinaa boa ano ma Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn ɔko da kɛseɛ no.

For they are evil spirits, working signs; who go out even to the kings of all the earth, to get them together to the war of the great day of God, the Ruler of all.

15 “Montie! Mereba te sɛ ɔkorɔmfoɔ. Nhyira ne deɛ ɔwɛn na ɔhwɛ ne ntadeɛ so, sɛdeɛ ɔrennante adagya ngu ne ho anim ase wɔ badwam!”

(See, I come as a thief. Happy is he who is watching and keeps his robes, so that he may not go unclothed, and his shame be seen.)

16 Ahonhom no boaa ahene no ano wɔ baabi a Hebri kasa mu wɔfrɛ hɔ Armagedon.

And they got them together into the place which is named in Hebrew Armageddon.

17 Afei, ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtɔ so nson no hwiee ne kuruwa no mu abufuo guu mframa mu. Nne denden bi firi ahennwa a ɛwɔ asɔredan no mu no kaa sɛ, “Wɔawie.”

And the seventh let what was in his vessel come out on the air; and there came out a great voice from the house of God, from the high seat, saying, It is done.

18 Na anyinam tete maa aprannaa paapaeɛ, ɛnna asasewosoɔ denden bi baeɛ. Ɛfirii sɛ wɔbɔɔ onipa no, asasewosoɔ biara mmaa saa da. Yei ne asasewosoɔ nyinaa mu deɛ ano yɛ den pa ara.

And there were flames and voices and thunders; and there was a great earth-shock so that never, from the time when men were on the earth, had there been so great an earth-shock, so full of power.

19 Kuro kɛseɛ no mu paee mmiɛnsa, na aman nyinaa nkuro akɛseɛ sɛesɛeɛ. Onyankopɔn kaee Babilonia kɛseɛ no, na ɔmaa no nsã a ano yɛ den a ɛyɛ nʼabufuo firi ne kuruwa ano nomeɛ.

And the great town was cut into three parts, and the towns of the nations came to destruction: and Babylon the great came into mind before God, to be given the cup of the wine of his wrath.

20 Nsupɔ ne mmepɔ nyinaa yeraeɛ.

And every island went in flight, and the mountains were seen no longer.

21 Asukɔtweaa kɛseɛ a ebiara mu duru yɛ kilogram aduonum tɔ firii soro guu nnipa so. Na ɛsiane asukɔtweaa no haw a na ɛyɛ hu no enti, nnipa domee Onyankopɔn.

And great drops of ice, every one about the weight of a talent, came down out of heaven on men: and men said evil things against God because of the punishment of the ice-drops; for it is very great.
