1 Ahemfo 14
1 Saa ɛberɛ no, Yeroboam babarima Abia yaree dendeenden.
In that tyme Abia, sone of Jeroboam, was sijk.
2 Enti, Yeroboam ka kyerɛɛ ne yere sɛ, “Sesa wo ho, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, obiara renhunu wo sɛ wone ɔhemmaa no. Na kɔ odiyifoɔ Ahiya, ɔbarima a ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ mɛdi ɔhene no, nkyɛn wɔ Silo.
And Jeroboam seide to his wijf, Rise thou, and chaunge clothing, that thou be not knowun, that thou art the wijf of Jeroboam; and go thou in to Silo, where Ahia, the prophete, is, which spak to me, that Y schulde regne on this puple.
3 Fa burodo mua edu, ɔfam ne ɛwoɔ akɔtoa kɔkyɛ no, na bisa no deɛ ɛbɛba abarimaa no so.”
Also take thou in the hond ten looues, and a cake, and a vessil of hony, and go thou to hym; for he schal schewe to thee, what schal bifalle to this child.
4 Na Yeroboam yere no kɔɔ Ahiya fie wɔ Silo. Saa ɛberɛ no na wabɔ akɔkoraa a ɔnhunu adeɛ.
The wijf of Jeroboam dide as he seide, and sche roos, and yede in to Silo, and cam in to the hows of Ahia; and he miyte not se, for hise iyen dasewiden for eelde.
5 Nanso, na Awurade aka akyerɛ Ahiya sɛ, “Yeroboam yere bɛba ha, na ɔbɛhyɛ da ayɛ ne ho sɛ obi foforɔ. Ɔbɛbisa wo ne babarima no ho asɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyare dendeenden. Sɛ ɛba saa a, fa mmuaeɛ a mede bɛma wo no ma no.”
Forsothe the Lord seide to Ahia, Lo! the wijf of Jeroboam entrith, that sche counsele thee on hir sone, which is sijk; thou schalt speke these and these thingis to hir. Therfor whanne sche hadde entrid, and hadde feyned hir silf to be that `womman which sche was not,
6 Na Ahiya tee ne nan ase wɔ ɛpono ano no, ɔfrɛɛ sɛ, “Yeroboam yere, bra mu! Adɛn enti na woahyɛ da ayɛ wo ho sɛ obi foforɔ?” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mewɔ asɛmmɔne ka kyerɛ wo.
Ahia herde the soune of the feet of hir entrynge bi the dore, and he seide, Entre thou, the wijf of Jeroboam; whi feynest thou thee to bee an other womman? Forsothe Y am sent an hard messanger to thee.
7 Fa saa nkra yi a ɛfiri Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, nkyɛn kɔma wo kunu Yeroboam sɛ, ‘Mepagyaa wo firi mpapahwekwaa mu, de wo bɛsii me nkurɔfoɔ Israel so ɔhene.
Go thou, and seie to Jeroboam, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, For Y enhaunside thee fro the myddis of the puple, and Y yaf thee duyk on my puple Israel,
8 Metuu ahemman no ase firii Dawid fie, de maa wo. Nanso, woammu wo bra, te sɛ me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔdii mʼahyɛdeɛ so a ɔde nʼakoma nyinaa dii mʼakyi, na daa ɔyɛɛ biribiara a mepɛ sɛ ɔyɛ no.
and Y kittide the rewme of the hows of Dauid, and Y yaf it to thee, and thou were not as my seruaunt Dauid, that kepte myn heestis, and suede me in al his herte, and dide that that was plesaunt in my siyt;
9 Bɔne a woayɛ no dɔɔso kyɛn wɔn a wɔtenaa ase ansa na wɔrewo woɔ no. Woayɛ anyame afoforɔ ma ɛnam so ama me bo afu wo, wo sikakɔkɔɔ nantwie mma no enti. Na ɛsiane sɛ woadane wʼakyi akyerɛ me enti,
but thou wrouytist yuel, ouer alle men that weren bifore thee, and madist to thee alien goddis, and wellid to gidere, that thou schuldist excite me to wrathfulnesse, sotheli thou hast cast forth me bihyndis thi bak.
10 mede amanehunu bɛba wo fie ahennie nnidisoɔ so, na makum wo mmammarima nyinaa, akoa ne deɛ ɔdi ne ho so nso. Mɛhye wʼahennie nnidisoɔ no ase, sɛdeɛ obi hye wura ma aseɛ tu koraa no.
Therfor lo! Y schal brynge in yuels on the hows of Jeroboam, and Y schal smyte of Jeroboam `til to a pissere to the wal, and prisoned, and the laste in Israel; and Y schal clense the relikis of the hows of Jeroboam, as dung is wont to be clensid `til to the purete, `ether clennesse;
11 Me, Awurade, meka ntam sɛ, wo fiefoɔ a wɔbɛwuwu wɔ kuro no mu no, nkraman na wɔbɛwe wɔn ɛnam, na wɔn a wɔbɛwuwu wiram no nso, apete na wɔbɛsosɔ wɔn ɛnam.’”
sotheli doggis schulen ete hem, that schulen die of the hows of Jeroboam in citee; forsothe briddis of the eyr schulen deuoure hem, that schulen die in the feeld; for the Lord spak.
12 Na Ahiya ka kyerɛɛ Yeroboam yere sɛ, “Kɔ efie, na sɛ wowura kuro no mu ara pɛ a, abɔfra no bɛwu.
Therfor rise thou, and go in to thin hows; and in thilke entryng of thi feet in to the citee the child schal die.
13 Na Israel nyinaa bɛsu no, na wɔasie no. Ɔno nko ne onipa a ɔfiri mo fie a wɔbɛsie no yie, na saa abɔfra no nko na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, hunu no sɛ ade pa wɔ Yeroboam fiefoɔ nyinaa mu.
And al Israel schal biweile him, and schal birie; for this child aloone of Jeroboam schal be borun in to sepulcre, for a good word is foundun on hym of the Lord God of Israel, in the hows of Jeroboam.
14 Na Awurade bɛpagya ɔhene adi Israel so. Ɔno na ɔbɛtɔre Yeroboam fiefoɔ ase. Saa asɛm no bɛsi ɛnnɛ yi ara, saa dɔnhwereɛ yi ara mu.
Forsothe the Lord schal ordeyne to hym a kyng on Israel, that schal smyte the hows of Jeroboam, in this dai and in this tyme;
15 Na Awurade bɛwoso Israel te sɛ sibire a ɛhinhim wɔ asuwa ani. Ɔbɛtutu Israelfoɔ ase afiri saa asase pa a ɔde maa wɔn agyanom no so. Na ɔbɛbɔ wɔn apete, atra Asubɔnten Eufrate, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnam som a wɔsom Asera afɔrebukyia no so ahyɛ Awurade abufuo.
and the Lord God of Israel schal smyte, as a reed in the water is wont to be mouyd; and he schal drawe out Israel fro this good lond, which he yaf to her fadris, and he schal wyndewe hem ouer the flood, for thei maden to hem woodis, that thei schulden terre the Lord to ire.
16 Ɔbɛto Israel asaworam, ɛfiri sɛ, Yeroboam yɛɛ bɔne, nam so maa Israel nyinaa ne no yɛɛ bɔne.”
And the Lord God schal bitake Israel to hise enemyes, for the synnes of Jeroboam, that synnede, and made Israel to do synne.
17 Na Yeroboam yere sane kɔɔ Tirsa. Na ɛberɛ a ɔwuraa ne fie no, abɔfra no wuiɛ.
Therfor the wijf of Jeroboam roos, and yede, and cam in to Thersa; whanne sche entride in to the threschfold of the hows, the child was deed.
18 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ siee no no, wɔsuu no sɛdeɛ Awurade nam odiyifoɔ Ahiya so hyɛeɛ no.
And thei birieden hym; and al Israel biweilide hym, bi the word of the Lord, which he spak in the hoond of his seruaunt, Ahia the prophet.
19 Yeroboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, nʼakodie nyinaa ne ɛkwan a ɔfaa so buu ɔman no nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma Mu.
Forsothe, lo! the residue of wordis of Jeroboam, how he fauyt, and how he regnede, ben writun in the book of wordis of the daies of kyngis of Israel.
20 Yeroboam dii adeɛ wɔ Israel mfeɛ aduonu mmienu. Ɔwuiɛ no, ne babarima Nadab na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Forsothe the daies, in whiche Jeroboam regnede, ben two and twenti yeer; and Jeroboam slepte with hise fadris, and Nadab, his sone, regnede for hym.
21 Na Salomo babarima Rehoboam na na ɔdi ɔhene wɔ Yuda. Ɛberɛ a ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfeɛ aduanan baako, na ɔdii adeɛ mfeɛ dunson wɔ Yerusalem, kuro a na Awurade ayi wɔ Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa mu, sɛ ɔde rehyɛ ne din animuonyam. Na Rehoboam maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni.
Forsothe Roboam, the sone of Salomon, regnede in Juda; Roboam was of oon and fourti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede seuentene yeer in Jerusalem, the citee which the Lord chees of alle the lynagis of Israel, that he schulde sette his name there. Sotheli the name of his moder was Naama Amanyte.
22 Ɛberɛ a na Rehoboam di adeɛ no, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda no yɛɛ bɔne Awurade anim, maa ne bo fuu wɔ wɔn bɔne no ho. Na saa bɔne no sene deɛ wɔn agyanom no yɛeɛ mpo.
And Juda dide yuel bifor the Lord, and thei terriden hym to ire on alle thingis, whiche her fadris diden in her synnes, bi whiche thei synneden.
23 Wɔsisii abosomfie, gyinaa nnannua a wɔate ho ne Asera afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ biara so ne dutan frɔmfrɔm biara ase.
For also thei bildiden to hem silf auters, and ymagis, and wodis, on eche hiy hil, and vndur ech tree ful of bowis.
24 Mpo, na abosomfie mmarima nnwamanfoɔ wɔ asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Nnipa no suasuaa akyiwadeɛ ahodoɔ a amanaman a wɔsom abosom no yɛeɛ enti a Awurade pamoo wɔn firii asase no so maa Israelfoɔ no.
But also `men of wymmens condiciouns weren in the lond, and thei diden alle abhominaciouns of hethene men, whiche the Lord al to-brak bifor the face of the sones of Israel.
25 Rehoboam dii adeɛ ne mfeɛ enum so no, Misraimhene Sisak bɛto hyɛɛ Yerusalem so.
Forsothe in the fifthe yeer of the rewme of Roboam, Sesach, the kyng of Egipt, styede in to Jerusalem;
26 Ɔbɔ wuraa Awurade Asɔredan no mu ne ahemfie hɔ baabiara, wiaa biribiara a sikakɔkɔɔ akyɛm a Salomo yɛeɛ no ka ho.
and he took the tresouris of the hows of the Lord, and the kyngis tresouris, and he rauischide alle thingis; also `he rauischide the goldun scheeldis, whiche Salomon made.
27 Akyire yi, Rehoboam yɛɛ kɔbere akyɛm de sii anan, na ɔde hyɛɛ ahemfie awɛmfoɔ no nsa sɛ wɔnhwɛ so.
For whiche kyng Roboam made brasun scheeldis, and yaf tho in the hondis of duykis of scheeld makeris, and of hem that wakiden bifor the dore of the hows of the Lord.
28 Ɛberɛ biara a ɔhene no kɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no, awɛmfoɔ no soa kɔ hɔ bi, na sɛ ɔwie na ɔreba a, wɔsane de bɛgu awɛmfoɔ ɛdan no mu.
And whanne the kyng entride in to the hows of the Lord, thei that hadden office to go bifore, baren tho, and baren ayen to the place of armer of scheeld makeris.
29 Na Rehoboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ no deɛ, wɔatwerɛ ne nyinaa wɔ Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
Forsothe, lo! the residue of wordis of Roboam, and alle thingis whiche he dide, ben writun in the book of wordis of daies of kyngis of Juda.
30 Daa na ɔko da Rehoboam ne Yeroboam ntam.
And batel was bitwixe Roboam and Jeroboam, in alle daies.
31 Ɛberɛ a Rehoboam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagyanom koraberɛ wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni baa. Afei, ne babarima a ne din de Abiyam na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
And Roboam slepte with hise fadris, and was biried with hem in the citee of Dauid. Forsothe the name of his modir was Naama Amanyte; and Abia, his sone, regnede for hym.
