Hesekiel 22
1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 “Onipa ba, wobɛbu Yerusalem atɛn? Wobɛbu saa mogyahwiegu kuropɔn yi atɛn anaa? Ɛnneɛ fa ne nneyɛɛ a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ no nyinaa si nʼanim
and he seide, And thou, sone of man, whether thou demest not the citee of bloodis?
3 na ka sɛ: ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ao kuropɔn a ɔnam mogya hwieguo so de nnome aba ne ho so na ɔde ahoni a ɔyɛ agu ne ho fi,
And thou schalt schewe to it alle hise abhomynaciouns, and thou schalt seie, The Lord God seith these thingis, This is a citee schedinge out blood in the myddis of it silf, that the tyme therof come; and which made idols ayens it silf, that it shulde be defoulid.
4 woadi fɔ wɔ mogya a woahwie agu na woagu wo ho fi wɔ ahoni a woayɛ enti. Woama wo nna abɛn, na wo mfeɛ awieeɛ no aba. Enti mɛyɛ wo ahohoradeɛ wɔ amanaman no mu, ne asredeɛ wɔ amantam no nyinaa mu.
In thi blood which is shed out of thee, thou trespassidist, and thou art defoulid in thin idols whiche thou madist; and thou madist thi daies to neiye, and thou brouytist the time of thi yeeris. Therfor Y yaf thee schenschipe to hethene men, and scornyng to alle londis that ben niy thee,
5 Wɔn a wɔbɛn ne wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri bɛdi wo ho fɛw, Ao Kuropɔn a ɛnni animuonyam, na basabasayɛ ahyɛ no ma.
and that ben fer fro thee; thou foul citee, noble, greet in perisching, thei schulen haue victorie of thee.
6 “‘Hwɛ sɛdeɛ Israel mmapɔmma a wɔwɔ wo mu no mu biara de ne tumi hwie mogya guo.
Lo! princes of Israel, alle in her arm, weren in thee, to schede out blood.
7 Wɔabu agya ne ɛna animtiaa wɔ wo mu. Wɔahyɛ ɔnanani so, na wɔatane awisiaa ne akunafoɔ ani.
Thei punyschiden with wrongis fadir and modir in thee, thei calengiden falsli a comelyng in the myddis of thee, thei maden sori a fadirles child and a widewe at thee.
8 Wɔabu mʼakronkronneɛ animtiaa na woagu me home nna ho fi.
Ye dispisiden my seyntuaries, and ye defouliden my sabatis.
9 Wo mu na mmarima ntwatosofoɔ a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔhwie mogya guo wɔ, wɔn a wɔdidi wɔ sorɔnsorɔmmea abosonnan mu, na wɔyɛ ahohoradeɛ.
Men bacbiteris weren in thee, to schede out blood, and eten on hillis in thee; thei wrouyten greet trespas in the myddis of thee.
10 Wo mu na wɔn a wɔgu wɔn agyanom mpa ho fi wɔ. Wɔn a wɔne mmaa a wɔabu wɔn nsa, na wɔn ho nteɛ no da no wɔ wo mu.
Thei vnhiliden the schamefulere thingis of the fadir in thee, thei maden low in thee the vnclenesse of a womman in vnclene blood.
11 Wo mu na ɔbarima ne ne yɔnko yere yɛ bɔne a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ. Ɔfoforɔ ne nʼase baa da wɔ animguaseɛ mu, na ɔfoforɔ ne ne nuabaa da, ɔno ankasa nʼagya babaa.
And ech man wrouyte abhomynacioun ayens the wijf of his neiybore, and the fadir of the hosebonde defoulide his sones wijf vnleuefuli; a brother oppresside in thee his sister, the douytir of his fadir.
12 Wo mu na nnipa gye adanmudeɛ ka mogya guo; wɔgye nsihoɔ ne mfasoɔ a ɛboro so firi wɔn mfɛfoɔ nkyɛn de nya wɔn ho bebree. Na mo werɛ afiri me, Otumfoɔ Awurade na ɔseɛ.
Thei token yiftis at thee, to schede out blood; thou tokist vsure and ouerabundaunce, and thou calengidist greedili thi neiyboris, and thou hast foryete me, seith the Lord God.
13 “‘Ampa ara mɛbɔ me nsam agu wʼasisie ahonya ne mogya a woahwie agu no so.
Lo! Y haue smyte togidere myn hondis on thin aueryce, which thou didist, and on the blood which is sched out in the myddis of thee.
14 Wʼakokoduro bɛtumi agyina anaa sɛ wo nsa bɛyɛ den ɛda no a me ne wo bɛnya no anaa? Me Awurade na akasa, na mɛyɛ.
Whether thin herte schal susteyne, ether thin hondis schulen haue power in the daies whiche Y schal make to thee? For Y the Lord spak, and Y schal do.
15 Mɛhwete wo mu agu amanaman no so, na mabɔ wo apansam amantam no mu; na mede wo afideyɛ aba nʼawieeɛ.
And Y schal scatere thee in to naciouns, and Y schal wyndewe thee in to londis; and Y schal make thin vnclennesse to faile fro thee,
16 Sɛ wɔgu wo ho fi wɔ amanaman no mu a, wobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’”
and Y schal welde thee in the siyt of hethene men; and thou schalt wite, that Y am the Lord.
17 Afei, Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide,
18 “Onipa ba, Israel efie abɛyɛ dwetɛ ase fi ama me; wɔn nyinaa yɛ kɔbere, sanya, dadeɛ ne sumpii a wɔagya wɔ fononoo mu. Wɔyɛ dwetɛ fi hunaa.
Thou, sone of man, the hous of Israel is turned to me in to dros, ether filthe of irun; alle these ben bras, and tyn, and irun, and leed, in the myddis of furneis, thei ben maad the dros of siluer.
19 Ɛno enti sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: ‘Esiane sɛ mo nyinaa abɛyɛ dwetɛ fi enti, mɛboaboa mo ano wɔ Yerusalem.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that alle ye ben turned in to dros, lo! Y schal gadere you togidere in the myddis of Jerusalem,
20 Sɛdeɛ nnipa boaboa dwetɛ, kɔbere, sumpii ne sanya ano hyɛ fononoo mu de egyadɛreɛ a ano yɛ dene nane no, saa ara na mɛfiri mʼabufuo ne mʼabufuhyeɛ mu aboaboa mo ano wɔ kuropɔn no mu na manane mo.
bi gadering togidere of siluer, and of latoun, and of irun, and of tyn, and of leed, in the myddis of furneis; and Y schal kindle ther ynne a fier, to welle togidere; so Y schal gadere you togidere in my strong veniaunce, and in my wraththe, and Y schal reste. And Y schal welle you togidere,
21 Mɛboaboa mo ano na mahu mʼabufuhyeɛ ogya agu mo so, na moanane wɔ ne mu.
and Y schal gadere you togidere, and Y schal sette you a fier in the fier of my strong veniaunce, and ye schulen be wellid togidere in the myddis therof.
22 Sɛdeɛ wɔnane dwetɛ wɔ fononoo mu no, saa ara na mobɛnane wɔ ne mu na moahunu sɛ me Awurade na mahwie mʼabufuhyeɛ agu mo so.’”
As siluer is wellid togidere in the myddis of a furneis, so ye schulen be in the myddis therof; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, whanne Y haue sched out myn indignacioun on you.
23 Na Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn bio sɛ:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
24 “Onipa ba, ka kyerɛ asase no sɛ, ‘Woyɛ asase a woanya osutɔ anaa osuo ampete wo so wɔ abufuo ɛda no.’
and he seide, Sone of man, seie thou to it, Thou art a lond vncleene, and not bireyned in the dai of strong veniaunce.
25 Ne mmapɔmma abɔ pɔ bɔne wɔ ne mu te sɛ gyata a ɔbobɔm na ɔtete ne haboa mu. Wɔwe nnipa nam, wɔfa ademudeɛ ne nneɛma a ɛsom bo na wɔma akunafoɔ dɔɔso wɔ ne mu.
Sweringe togidere, ether conspiringe of profetis is in the myddis therof; as a lioun roringe and takinge prei, thei deuouriden men, thei token richessis and prijs; thei multiplieden widewis therof in the myddis therof.
26 Nʼasɔfoɔ bu me mmara so na wɔgu mʼakronkronneɛ ho fi; wɔnnkyerɛ nsonsonoeɛ a ɛda deɛ ɛyɛ kronn ne deɛ ɛnyɛ kronn ntam; wɔkyerɛkyerɛ sɛ nsonsonoeɛ biara nna deɛ ɛho nteɛ ne deɛ ɛho teɛ ntam, na wɔbu wɔn ani gu me home nna die so, de gu me ho fi wɔ wɔn mu.
Preestis therof dispisiden my lawe, and defouliden my seyntuaries; thei hadden not difference bitwixe hooli thing and vnhooli, thei vndurstoden not bitwixe defoulid thing and cleene thing; and thei turneden awei her iyen fro my sabatis, and Y was defoulid in the myddis of hem.
27 Nʼadwumayɛfoɔ te sɛ mpataku a wɔretete wɔn ahaboa mu; wɔhwie mogya gu na wɔkum nnipa de pɛ mfasoɔ bɔne.
The princes therof in the myddis therof weren as wolues rauyschinge prey, to schede out blood, and to leese men, and in suynge lucris gredili.
28 Nʼadiyifoɔ nam atorɔ anisoadehunu ne nkontompo nkɔmhyɛ so ma saa nnebɔne yi yɛ fitaa. Wɔka sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ,’ wɔ ɛberɛ a Awurade nkasaeɛ.
Forsothe the profetis therof pargetiden hem with out temperure, and seyen veyn thingis, and dyuyneden leesingis to hem, and seiden, The Lord God seith these thingis, whanne the Lord spak not.
29 Asase no so nnipa di amin na wɔbɔ korɔno; wɔhyɛ ahiafoɔ ne mmɔborɔfoɔ so, wɔnnye ahɔhoɔ ani na wɔde atɛntenenee kame wɔn.
The puples of the lond calengiden fals caleng, and rauyschiden bi violence; thei turmentiden a nedi man and pore, and oppressiden a comeling bi fals caleng, with out doom.
30 “Mehwehwɛɛ obi wɔ wɔn mu a ɔbɛto ɔfasuo no na wagyina mʼanim wɔ asase no anan mu, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a merensɛe asase no, nanso manhunu obiara.
And Y souyte of hem a man, that schulde sette an hegge bitwixe, and stonde set ayens me for the lond, that Y schulde not distrie it, and Y foond not.
31 Ɛno enti, mɛhwie mʼabufuhyeɛ agu wɔn so, na mede mʼabufuo a ɛyɛ hu no atɔre wɔn ase, na mama deɛ wɔayɛ nyinaa abɔ wɔn tiri so, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.”
And Y schedde out on hem myn indignacioun, and Y wastide hem in the fier of my wraththe; Y yeldide the weie of hem on the heed of hem, seith the Lord God.
