Ezekiel 6

1 Then came the word of Yahweh. unto me saying,

Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se,

2 Son of man, Set thy face against the mountains of Israel, — and prophesy unto them;

“Onipa ba, fa wʼani kyerɛ Israel mmepɔw, na hyɛ nkɔm tia wɔn,

3 and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of My Lord Yahweh, — Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh- To the mountains and to the hills to the hollows and to the valleys, - Behold me! I, am bringing upon you a sword, And I will destroy your high places;

na ka se, ‘Mo Israel mmepɔw, muntie Otumfo Awurade asɛm. Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade ka kyerɛ mmepɔw ne nkoko, abon ne aku: Merebɛtwe mo so afoa na masɛe mo sorɔnsorɔmmea.

4 And your altars shall be laid waste, And your sun-pillars shall be broken in pieces, — And I will cause your slain to fall before your manufactured gods;

Wobebubu mo afɔremuka ahorow no na wɔasɛe nnuhuam adum; na mekunkum mo nkurɔfo wɔ mo ahoni anim.

5 And I will lay the carcases of the sons of Israel before their manufactured gods, — And will scatter your bones round about your altars.

Mede Israelfo afunu begu wɔn ahoni anim na mede mo nnompe apete mo afɔremuka ahorow ho.

6 In all your dwelling-places, The cities, shall be laid waste, and, The high places, shall be made desolate, To the end your altars may be laid waste and become desolate. And your manufactured gods be broken in pieces and cease, And your sun-pillars be cut down, And your handiworks be abolished.

Baabiara a mote no, nkurow no bɛda mpan na ne sorɔnsorɔmmea bɛsɛe, na ama mo afɔremuka ahorow no ada mpan na ayɛ amamfo, mo ahoni abubu na asɛe, mo nnuhuam adum abubu agu fam, na nea moayɛ nso ahwere mo.

7 And the slain shall fall in your midst, So shall ye know that I am Yahweh.

Mo nkurɔfo bɛtotɔ wɔ mo mu, na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade.

8 Yet will I leave a remnant: In that ye shall have such as are escaped of the sword throughout the nations, when ye are scattered throughout the lands.

“‘Nanso megyaw mo mu bi, efisɛ ebinom beguan afoa ano wɔ bere a moahwete wɔ nsase ne amanaman so.

9 Then shall they who have escaped of you remember me, among the nations whither they have been carried captive, In that I have broken their adulterous heart, which hath turned aside from me, And their eyes which have adulterously gone after their manufactured gods, So shall they become loathsome in their own sight, for the wicked things which they have done in all their abominations.

Na afei wɔn a woguan no bɛkae me wɔ amanaman a wɔfaa wɔn nnommum kɔɔ mu no, sɛnea madi awerɛhow wɔ wɔn aguamammɔ koma a wɔde twee wɔn ho fii me nkyɛn, ne wɔn ani a wɔde nyaa akɔnnɔ bɔne maa wɔn ahoni no ho. Wɔn ho bɛyɛ wɔn nwini wɔ bɔne ne akyiwade a wɔayɛ no nti.

10 Then shall they know that, I, Yahweh, —not in vain, had threatened to bring upon them this calamity.

Wobehu sɛ mene Awurade na mammɔ wɔn hu kwa sɛ mede saa ɔhaw yi bɛba wɔn so.

11 Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, Smite with thy hand, and stamp with thy foot and say, Alas! regarding all the wicked abominations of the house of Israel, —in that by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, shall they fall:

“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Mommɔ mo nsam na momfa mo nan mpempem fam na monteɛ mu se, “A!” esiane Israel fi amumɔyɛ ne akyiwade nyinaa nti, wobewuwu afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano.

12 He that is far off by pestilence, shall die and He that is near by the sword, shall fall, and He that is left and is besieged by the famine, shall die; Thus will I make an end of mine indignation against them.

Ɔyaredɔm bekum nea ɔwɔ akyirikyiri. Nea ɔbɛn no bɛtɔ afoa ano na nea obefi mu na waka no, ɔkɔm bekum no. Saa na mede mʼabufuwhyew no bɛyɛ wɔn.

13 So shall ye know that I, am Yahweh, In that their slain are in the midst of their manufactured gods, on every side of their altars, — Upon every high hill In all the tops of the mountains and Under every green tree and Under every tangled oak, The place where they offered a satisfying odour to all their manufactured gods.

Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade, bere a wɔn nkurɔfo a watotɔ afunu deda wɔn ahoni ntam atwa wɔn afɔremuka ho ahyia, wɔ nkoko a ɛkorɔn nyinaa so, mmepɔw atifi nyinaa ne nnua a adennan ne odum frɔmfrɔm ase, mmeaemmeae a wɔde nnuhuam bɔ afɔre ma wɔn ahoni nyinaa no.

14 Thus will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land a greater waste and devastation than the desert toward Diblah throughout all their dwelling-places, - And they shall know that, I, am Yahweh.

Afei mɛteɛ me nsa wɔ wɔn so na mama asase no ada mpan afi nweatam no akosi Ribla, baabiara a wɔtete. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade.’”
