Hesekiel 37
1 Na Awurade nsa wɔ me so na ɔde ne Honhom yii me firii adi de me bɛsii bɔnhwa no mfimfini, na nnompe ayɛ no ma.
The hond of the Lord was maad on me, and ledde me out in the spirit of the Lord; and he lefte me in the myddis of a feeld that was ful of boonys;
2 Ɔde me dii akɔneaba wɔ mu na mehunuu nnompe bebree wɔ bɔnhwa no ase, nnompe a ɛho akokwa.
and he ledde me aboute bi tho in cumpas. Forsothe tho weren ful manye on the face of the feeld, and drie greetli.
3 Ɔbisaa me sɛ, “Onipa ba, saa nnompe yi bɛtumi anya nkwa anaa?” Mekaa sɛ, “Ao Otumfoɔ Awurade, wo nko ara na wonim.”
And he seide to me, Gessist thou, sone of man, whether these boonys schulen lyue? And Y seide, Lord God, thou wost.
4 Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Hyɛ nkɔm wɔ nnompe yi ho na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Nnompe a mo ho akokwa, montie Awurade asɛm!
And he seide to me, Profesie thou of these boonys; and thou schalt seie to tho, Ye drie boonys, here the word of the Lord.
5 Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade ka kyerɛ saa nnompe yi: Mɛma ahomeɛ aba mo mu na mobɛnya nkwa.
The Lord God seith these thingis to these boonys, Lo! Y schal sende in to you a spirit, and ye schulen lyue.
6 Mɛma ntini abɛsosɔ mo mu, na mede ɛnam agu mo so na mede wedeɛ akata mo so. Mede ahomeɛ bɛgu mo mu na moaba nkwa mu. Afei wobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade.’”
And Y schal yyue synewis on you, and Y schal make fleischis to wexe on you, and Y schal stretche forth aboue a skyn in you, and Y schal yyue a spirit to you, and ye schulen lyue; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
7 Ɛno enti mehyɛɛ nkɔm sɛdeɛ wɔhyɛɛ me no. Na megu so rehyɛ nkɔm no, ɛnne bi baeɛ, awosoɔ bi, na nnompe no keka bobɔɔ mu, dompe bɛkaa ne dompe ho.
And Y profesiede, as he comaundide to me; forsothe a sown was maad, while Y profesiede, and lo! a stiryng togidere, and boonys camen to boonys, ech to his ioynture.
8 Na mehwɛeɛ hunuiɛ sɛ ntini baa so, na ɛnam baa ho na wedeɛ bɛkataa so, nanso na ahomeɛ biara nni mu.
And Y siy and lo! synewis and fleischis `wexeden vpon tho, and skyn was stretchid forth aboue in hem, and tho hadden no spirit.
9 Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ: “Hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ ahome, hyɛ nkɔm onipa ba, na ka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Sei na Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ahome, firi mframa ɛnan no mu bra bɛhome gu saa awufoɔ yi mu na wɔnya nkwa.’”
And he seide to me, Profesie thou to the spirit, profesie thou, sone of man; and thou schalt seie to the spirit, The Lord God seith these thingis, Come, thou spirit, fro foure wyndis, and blowe thou on these slayn men, and lyue thei ayen.
10 Enti mehyɛɛ nkɔm sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ me no, na ahome hyɛnee wɔn mu; na nkwa baa wɔn mu ma wɔsɔre gyinagyinaa wɔn nan so, ɛdɔm kɛseɛ pa ara.
And Y profesiede, as he comaundide to me; and the spirit entride in to tho boonys, and thei lyueden, and stoden on her feet, a ful greet oost.
11 Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, saa nnompe yi yɛ Israel efie nyinaa. Wɔka sɛ: ‘Yɛn nnompe ho akokwa na yɛn anidasoɔ asa. Wɔatwa yɛn agu korakora.’
And the Lord seide to me, Thou sone of man, alle these boonys is the hous of Israel; thei seien, Oure boonys drieden, and oure hope perischide, and we ben kit awei.
12 Ɛno enti hyɛ nkɔm na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ: ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Me nkurɔfoɔ, merebɛbuebue mo adamena na mayi mo afiri mu apue. Mede mo bɛsane aba Israel asase so.
Therfor profesie thou, and thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal opene youre graues, and Y schal lede you out of youre sepulcris, my puple, and Y schal lede you in to youre lond Israel.
13 Afei mo, me nkurɔfoɔ, sɛ mebuebue mo adamena na meyiyi mo firi mu a, mobɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.
And ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, whanne Y schal opene youre sepulcris, and schal lede you out of youre biriels, my puple;
14 Mede me Honhom bɛhyɛ mo mu na mobɛnya nkwa, na mede mo bɛtena mo ankasa asase so. Afei mobɛhunu sɛ me, Awurade na makasa na mayɛ nso, Awurade asɛm nie.’”
and Y schal yyue my spirit in you, and ye schulen lyue. And Y schal make you for to reste on youre lond; and ye schulen wite, that Y the Lord spak, and dide, seith the Lord God.
15 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
16 “Onipa ba, fa dua na twerɛ ho sɛ, ‘Yei gyina hɔ ma Yudafoɔ ne Israelfoɔ a wɔka ne ho no.’ Afei fa dua foforɔ na twerɛ ho sɛ, ‘Efraim dua a ɛyɛ Yosef ne Israel efie a wɔka ne ho nyinaa dea.’
and he seide, And thou, sone of man, take to thee o tree, and write thou on it, To Juda, and to the sones of Israel, and to hise felowis. And take thou an other tree, and write on it, Joseph, the tree of Effraym, and of al the hous of Israel, and of hise felowis.
17 Ka ne mmienu bɔ mu na ɛnyɛ dua baako wɔ wo nsam.
And ioyne thou tho trees oon to the tother in to o tree to thee; and tho schulen be in to onement in thin hond.
18 “Sɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ ka sɛ, ‘Worenkyerɛ yɛn deɛ wode yei kyerɛ anaa a,’
Sotheli whanne the sones of thi puple that speken, schulen seie to thee, Whether thou schewist not to vs, what thou wolt to thee in these thingis?
19 ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Merebɛfa Yosef dua a ɛhyɛ Efraim ne Israel mmusuakuo a wɔka ne ho no nsa, na mede abɔ Yuda dua no mu ayɛ mmienu no baako, na wɔbɛyɛ baako wɔ me nsam.’
thou schalt speke to hem, The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal take the tree of Joseph, which is in the hond of Effraym, and the lynagis of Israel, that ben ioyned to hym, and Y schal yyue hem togidere with the tree of Juda; and Y schal make hem in to o tree, and thei schulen be oon in the hond of hym.
20 Ma nnua a woatwerɛtwerɛ ho no so kyerɛ wɔn
Sotheli the trees, on whiche thou hast write, schulen be in thin hond bifore the iyen of hem.
21 na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Mɛyi Israelfoɔ afiri amanaman a wɔkɔ soɔ no so. Mɛboaboa wɔn ano afiri afanan nyinaa na mede wɔn asane aba wɔn ankasa asase so.
And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal take the sones of Israel fro the myddis of naciouns, to whiche thei yeden forth; and Y schal gadere hem togidere on ech side. And Y schal brynge hem to her lond,
22 Mɛyɛ wɔn ɔman baako wɔ asase no so wɔ Israel mmepɔ so. Ɔhene baako bɛdi wɔn nyinaa so na wɔrenyɛ aman mmienu bio, na wɔrenkyɛ mu nyɛ wɔn ahennie mmienu.
and Y schal make hem o folc in the lond, in the hillis of Israel, and o kyng schal be comaundynge to alle: and thei schulen no more be twei folkis, and thei schulen no more be departid in to twey rewmes.
23 Wɔremfa wɔn ahoni ne nsɛsodeɛ tantane no anaasɛ wɔn nnebɔne no mu bi ngu wɔn ho fi bio, na mɛgye wɔn nkwa afiri wɔn akyirisane bɔne mu na mɛte wɔn ho. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ na mayɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.
And thei schulen no more be defoulid in her idols, and her abhomynaciouns, and in alle her wickidnessis. And Y schal make hem saaf fro alle her seetis, in which thei synneden, and Y schal clense hem; and thei schulen be a puple to me, and Y schal be God to hem.
24 “‘Me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid bɛdi wɔn so ɔhene na wɔn nyinaa bɛnya odwanhwɛfoɔ baako. Wɔbɛdi me mmara so na wɔahwɛ mʼahyɛdeɛ ayɛ.
And my seruaunt Dauid schal be kyng on hem, and o scheepherde schal be of alle hem; thei schulen go in my domes, and thei schulen kepe my comaundementis, and schulen do tho.
25 Wɔbɛtena asase a mede maa me ɔsomfoɔ Yakob, asase a mo agyanom tenaa soɔ. Wɔne wɔn mma ne wɔn mma mma bɛtena hɔ afebɔɔ, na me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid bɛyɛ wɔn ɔberempɔn afebɔɔ.
And thei schulen dwelle on the lond, which Y yaf to my seruaunt Jacob, in which youre fadris dwelliden; and thei schulen dwelle on that lond, thei, and the sones of hem, and the sones of her sones, til in to with outen ende; and Dauid, my seruaunt, schal be the prince of hem with outen ende.
26 Me ne wɔn bɛyɛ asomdwoeɛ apam, ɛbɛyɛ apam a ɛte hɔ daa. Mɛma wɔatim na mama wɔadɔre na mede me kronkronbea bɛsi wɔn mu afebɔɔ.
And Y schal smyte to hem a boond of pees; it schal be a couenaunt euerlastynge to hem, and Y schal founde hem, and Y schal multiplie, and Y schal yyue myn halewing in the myddis of hem with outen ende.
27 Me tenabea bɛwɔ wɔn mu, mɛyɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn na wɔayɛ me nkurɔfoɔ.
And my tabernacle schal be among hem, and Y schal be God to hem, and thei schulen be a puple to me.
28 Afei amanaman no bɛhunu sɛ me Awurade, me na meyɛ Israel kronkron, ɛberɛ a me kronkronbea si wɔn mu afebɔɔ.’”
And hethene men schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, halewere of Israel, whanne myn halewyng schal be in the myddis of hem with outen ende.
