Isaiah 16
1 Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, to the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Momfa nguantenmma sɛ sonkahiri nkɔma asase no sodifo, efi Sela fa nweatam no so, kɔka Ɔbabea Sion bepɔw no so.
2 For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.
Te sɛ nnomaa a wɔaka wɔn afi berebuw mu na wotu nenam wim no saa na Moabfo mmea te wɔ Arnon asutwabea.
3 Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; discover not him that wandereth.
Moab ka se, “Munsi mo adwene pi, monna mo gyinaesi adi. Monyɛ mo sunsuma sɛ anadwo, awia ketee. Momfa aguanfo no nhintaw munnyi atubrafo no mma.
4 Let my outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
Momma Moabfo aguanfo no ne mo ntena; monyɛ wɔn bammɔ wɔ ɔsɛefo no ho.” Ɔhyɛsoni no bɛba nʼawie na adesɛe to betwa; opoobɔfo no bɛyera wɔ asase no so.
5 And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and swiftly executing righteousness.
Ɔdɔ mu na Onyankopɔn besi ahengua bi; ɔbarima bi de nokwaredi bɛtena so, obi a ofi Dawid fi, nea atemmu mu no ɔpɛ atɛntrenee na ɔntwentwɛn adetreneeyɛ ho.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.
Yɛate Moab ahantan a ɔyɛ, nʼani a atra ne ntɔn mmoroso, nʼahomaso ne nʼasoɔden nanso hwee nni nʼahomaso no mu.
7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.
Enti Moabfo twa adwo, wɔbɔ mu su ma Moab. Wodi awerɛhow na wɔbɔ abubuw, ma Kir Hereset bobe aba ɔfam.
8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down its principal plants, they have come even to Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are extended, they have gone over the sea.
Hesbon mfuw no hyew, Sibma bobe mfuw nso saa ara. Aman sodifo no atiatia bobe papa no so, nea kan na wɔde kɔ Yaser na ɛtrɛtrɛw kɔ nweatam so no. Wɔn mman trɛtrɛw kɔka mpoano pɛɛ.
9 Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.
Enti misu sɛnea Yaser su, de ma Sibma bobe mfuw. Hesbon ne Eleale, mede misu fɔw mo! Mo aduaba a abere ho ahurusi ne otwabere de no aka.
10 And gladness is taken away, and joy from the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.
Ahosɛpɛw ne anigye nni mfikyifuw no mu; obiara nto dwom, na ɔnteɛteɛ mu wɔ bobeturo mu; obiara nkyi nsa wɔ nsakyiamoa so, efisɛ mede nteɛteɛmu aba nʼawiei.
11 Therefore my heart shall sound like an harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kirharesh.
Misi apini wɔ me koma mu wɔ Moab ho te sɛ sankuten so kwadwom; na me yam hyehye me ma Kir Hereset.
12 And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.
Sɛ Moab kɔ ne sorɔnsorɔmmea a ɔhaw ne ho kwa; sɛ ɔkɔ nʼabosonnan mu kɔbɔ mpae a, ɛrenkosi hwee.
13 This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.
Eyi ne asɛm a Awurade aka dedaw afa Moab ho.
14 But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be despised, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.
Nanso mprempren Awurade ka se, “Mfe abiɛsa mu, sɛnea akoa a nhyehyɛe kyekyere no no bebu nna no, wobebu Moab anuonyam ne ne nkurɔfo dodow no nyinaa animtiaa, na ne nkae no bɛyɛ kakraa bi a wonni ahoɔden.”
