Ezekiel 32

1 And it came to pass, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month on the first of the month, that the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:

Mfe dumien mu, ɔsram a ɛto so dumien no da a edi kan no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:

2 Son of man Take up a dirge over Pharaoh king of Egypt, and thou shalt say unto him. The young lion of the nations, thou didst deem thyself, - Whereas thou, wast like the crocodile in the seas, And didst cause thy streams to burst forth And didst trouble the waters with thy feet, And foul their rivers.

“Onipa ba, to kwadwom fa Misraimhene Farao ho na ka kyerɛ no se: “‘Wote sɛ gyata wɔ aman no mu: wote sɛ po mu aboa a ne ho yɛ hu wububu dikyi wɔ wo nsuten mu, wode wo nan boro nsuten no de fono nsu no.

3 Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh, Therefore will I spread over thee my net, With a gathered host of many peoples, -And they shall bring thee up in my net;

“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Mede dɔm bɛba abɛtow mʼasau agu wo so, na wɔbɛtwe wo afi mʼasau mu.

4 And I will stretch thee out on the land, Over the face of the field, will I fling thee, - And will cause to settle upon thee all the birds of the heavens, And will satiate with thee the wild beasts of all the earth;

Mɛtow wo akyene asase no so na mahiri wo ato sare so. Mɛma wim nnomaa nyinaa abesisi wo so na asase so mmoa nyinaa adi wo nam afrɛ so.

5 And I will lay thy flesh on the mountains, — And fill the valleys, with thy blood;

Mɛhata wo nam wɔ mmepɔw no so na mede wo funu ahyɛ aku ma.

6 And will soak the earth with thy blood, amongst the mountains, - And the channels shall be filled with thee.

Mede wo mogya a ɛresen no afɔw asase no de akɔka mmepɔw no na wo nam bɛhyɛ abon nketewa no ma.

7 And when I quench thee, I will cover the heavens, And obscure their stars, — The sun—with a cloud, will I cover, And the moon shall not shed her light;

Sɛ mitwa wo fi hɔ a, mɛkata ɔsoro ani na madunnum wɔn nsoromma; mede omununkum bɛkata owia ani, na ɔsram renhyerɛn.

8 As for all the light-bearers in the heavens, I will obscure them over thee— And will stretch out darkness over thy land, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

Ɔsoro akanea a ɛhyerɛn nyinaa mɛma aduru sum wɔ wo so; mɛma sum aduru wʼasase, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

9 And I will aggrieve the heart of many peoples, - when I bring them who are broken off from thee among the nations, unto lands which thou hast not known.

Mɛma nnipa bebree koma atutu bere a mede wo sɛe aba aman no mu, nsase a wunnya nhuu mu.

10 Yea I will cause amazement over thee unto many peoples And the hair of their kings shall stand on end over thee, when I brandish my sword over their faces, - And they shall tremble every moment every man for his own life, In the day of thy fall.

Mɛma nnipa bebree ho adwiriw wɔn wɔ wo ho, wo nti, hu bɛma wɔn ahene ho apopo bere a merehim mʼafoa wɔ wɔn anim no. Da a wobɛhwe ase no wɔn mu biara ho bɛwosow bere nyinaa mu wɔ wɔn nkwa nti.

11 For thus saith My Lord, Yahweh: -the sword of the king of Babylon shall reach thee.

“‘Na sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: “‘Babiloniahene afoa bɛsɔre wɔ wo so.

12 With the swords of mighty men, will I cause thy multitude to fall, Terrible ones of the nations all of them!-And they shall spoil the pride of Egypt, And all her multitude shall be destroyed,

Mɛma wo dɔm no atotɔ wɔ dɔmmarima afoa ano, wɔ aman a wɔyɛ anuɔdenfo mu. Wɔbɛsɛe Misraim ahomaso pasaa na ne dɔm no nyinaa bedi nkogu.

13 And I will cause to perish all her beasts, from beside the many waters, — And the foot of man shall not trouble them any more, Nor shall hoof of beast, trouble them.

Mekunkum nʼanantwi nyinaa afi nsu bebree no ho na onipa nan rentiatia mu bio na anantwi tɔte nso remfono no.

14 Then, will I make their waters subside, And, their streams—like oil, will I cause to flow, — Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.

Afei mɛma ne nsu ani atew na mama ne nsuten ateɛ sɛ ngo,

15 When I make the land of Egypt an astonishment A land laid bare of its fulness, When I cut off all that dwell therein, Then shall they know that, I am Yahweh.

Sɛ mema Misraim da mpan na miyi biribiara fi asase no so, sɛ mikum wɔn a wɔte so nyinaa a, afei na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’

16 A dirge, it is And they shall chant it, The daughters of the nations Shall chant it: Over Egypt and over all her multitude, Shall they chant it, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.

“Eyi ne kwadwom a wɔbɛto ama no. Amanaman no mmabea bɛto ama Misraim ne ne dɔm nyinaa, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”

17 And it came to pass in the twelfth year on the fifteenth of the month, that the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:

Afe a ɛto so dumien no ne sram da a ɛto so dunum no, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se:

18 Son of man Wail thou over the multitude of Egypt and cause it to descend—her and the daughters of the famous nations—into the earth below with them who descend into the pit.

“Onipa ba, twa adwo ma Misraim dɔm na ma ɔne amanaman akɛse no mmabea nsian nkɔ asase ase nkɔka wɔn a wɔasian kɔ amoa mu no ho.

19 Than whom, art thou more precious? Descend and be laid low with the uncircumcised:

Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Wadom mo dodo sen wɔn a aka no ana? Munsian nkɔ na mo ne momonotofo no nkɔda.’

20 Into the midst of them who were thrust through by the sword, let them fall, -To the sword, hath she been delivered up, Lay ye hold of her and all her multitudes.

Wɔbɛka wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no ho. Wɔatwe afoa no, ma wɔntwe ne nnipadɔm no ase nkɔ.

21 The chiefs of the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hades, with his helpers, - They have descended They have lain down. The uncircumcised! Thrust through by the sword. (Sheol h7585)

Akannifo akɛse a wɔwɔ ɔda mu bɛka afa Misraim ne ne dɔm ho se, ‘Wɔasian aba na wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ afoa ano no.’ (Sheol h7585)

22 There, is Assyria with all her gathered host, Round about him, are his graves, All of them thrust through, The fallen by the sword:

“Asiria ne nʼasraafo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔn a wɔakunkum wɔn no nna atwa ne ho ahyia, wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no.

23 Whose graves have been set In the recesses of the pit, And so her gathered host is round about her grave, All of them thrust through. Fallen by the sword, Who caused terror in the land of the living.

Wɔn nna no wɔ amoa no ase tɔnn na nʼasraafo deda ne nna ho nyinaa. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so no nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano.

24 There, is Persia with all her multitude, round about her grave, — All of them, thrust through The fallen by the sword Who have descended, uncircumcised into the earth below Who made themselves a terror in the land of the living, And so they have borne their confusion with them who descend into the pit:

“Elam wɔ hɔ, ne nnipadɔm nyinaa atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa awuwu, wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Wɔn a na wohunahuna afoforo wɔ ateasefo asase so nyinaa sian kɔɔ asase ase sɛ momonotofo. Wɔde wɔn animguase kɔka wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no ho.

25 In the midst of them who were thrust through, have they have placed a couch for her with all her multitude, Round about it, are her graves, -All of them, uncircumcised. Thrust through with the sword. For that their terror was caused in the land of the living. And so they have borne their confusion, with them who descend into the pit, In the midst of them who were thrust through, hath it been placed.

Wɔato mpa ama no wɔ atɔfo no mu, na ne dɔm atwa ne da ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano. Esiane sɛ wɔn ahunahuna trɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so no nti, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no nyinaa anim agu ase. Wɔadeda wɔn wɔ atɔfo no mu.

26 There, are Meshech-Tuba and all her multitude, Round about it, are her graves, — All of them uncircumcised, Who were thrust through with the sword, For that they made themselves a terror in the land of the living;

“Mesek ne Tubal wɔ hɔ a wɔn dɔm atwa wɔn nna ho ahyia. Wɔn nyinaa yɛ momonotofo a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano efisɛ wɔtrɛtrɛw wɔn ahunahuna mu wɔ ateasefo asase so.

27 Therefore shall they not lie with the mighty men The fallen ones from age-past times, Who descended into hades with their weapons of war And their swords were placed under their heads. But their iniquities have come upon their bones Because of the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)

Ɛnyɛ wɔn ne akofo momonotofo foforo a wɔatotɔ na wɔdeda hɔ no ana? Wɔn a wɔne wɔn akode sian kɔɔ nna mu na wɔn ti deda wɔn afoa so no. Wɔn amumɔyɛ so asotwe daa wɔn nnompe so, mmom saa akofo yi ahunahuna atrɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so. (Sheol h7585)

28 Thou, therefore in the midst of the uncircumcised, shalt be overthrown. And shalt lie low with them who were thrust through by the sword.

“Farao, wo nso wobebubu wo mu na woakɔda momonotofo mu, wo ne wɔn a wɔtotɔɔ wɔ afoa ano no.

29 There, are Edom her kings and all her princes, Who have been delivered up in their might. With them who were thrust through by he sword, — They with the uncircumcised, shall lie low. Even with them who descend into the pit.

“Edom wɔ hɔ, nʼahemfo ne ne mmapɔmma nyinaa deda wɔn a wɔatotɔ wɔ afoa ano no mu, wɔn tumi nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda momonotofo mu, wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no.

30 There, are the princes of the North, all of them, and all the Zidonians, Who have descended with them who were thrust through. By reason of the terror they caused, of their might, are they ashamed, So they have lain down uncircumcised. With them who were thrust through by the sword, And they have bowed their confusion with them who descend into the pit.

“Mmapɔmma a wofi atifi fam nyinaa ne Sidonfo nyinaa wɔ hɔ, wɔne atɔfo kɔɔ wɔ animguase mu, wɔn tumi a wɔde hunahuna no nyinaa akyi. Wɔdeda hɔ sɛ momonotofo, wɔne wɔn a wokum wɔn wɔ afoa ano, na wɔne wɔn a wosian kɔ amoa mu no asoa wɔn animguase.

31 Them, shall Pharaoh see, and be grieved over all his multitude, — Thrust through with the sword, shall be Pharaoh and all his army! Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.

“Farao, ɔne nʼasraafo nyinaa behu wɔn na ne werɛ bɛkyekye wɔ ne dɔm a wokunkum wɔn wɔ afoa ano no ho, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

32 For I have suffered his terror to be in the land of the living, Therefore shall be laid low In the midst of the uncircumcised With them who were thrust through by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitude! Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.

Mmom me na memaa Farao ne ne nnipadɔm de ahunahuna trɛtrɛw wɔ ateasefo asase so de, nanso wɔbɛdeda momonotofo mu, wɔn a wɔde afoa kunkum wɔn, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.”
