1 Afe a ɛtɔ so nsia mu, abosome nsia no ɛda a ɛtɔ so enum a na mete me fie na Yuda mpanimfoɔ tete mʼanim no, Otumfoɔ Awurade nsa baa me so wɔ hɔ.
And it was doon in the sixte yeer, in the sixte monethe, in the fyuethe dai of the monethe, Y sat in myn hous, and the elde men of Juda saten bifore me; and the hond of the Lord God felle there on me.
2 Mehwɛeɛ na mehunuu biribi a ɛte sɛ onipa. Ɛfiri baabi reba, a ayɛ sɛ nʼasene mu rekɔ ne fam no, na ɔte sɛ ogya, na ɛfiri hɔ rekɔ ne soro no, na ne tebea hyerɛn sɛ dadeɛ a adɔ.
And Y siy, and lo! a licnesse as the biholdyng of fier; fro the biholding of hise leendis and bynethe was fier, and fro hise leendis and aboue was as the biholdyng of schynyng, as the siyt of electre.
3 Ɔtenee biribi te sɛ nsa de sɔɔ me tirinwi mu faa me. Afei honhom no pagyaa me de me kɔɔ ewiem na ɛde me wuraa Onyankopɔn anisoadehunu mu kɔɔ Yerusalem kɔgyinaa mfimfini adihɔ no atifi ɛpono ano, baabi a ohoni a ɛyɛ ninkunutweɛ farebae no sie.
And the licnesse of an hond was sent out, and took me bi the heer of myn heed; and the spirit reiside me bitwixe heuene and erthe, and brouyte me in to Jerusalem, in the siyt of God, bisidis the ynnere dore that bihelde to the north, where the idol of enuye was set, to stire indignacioun.
4 Na ɛhɔ, mʼanim no na na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam wɔ, te sɛ anisoadehunu a menyaa no wɔ ɛserɛ so no.
And lo! the glorie of God of Israel was there, bi siyt which Y siy in the feeld.
5 Afei, ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, hwɛ atifi fam hɔ.” Na mehwɛeɛ, na ɛpono a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no atifi fam no mu, mehunuu saa ninkuntwe farebae ohoni yi.
And he seide to me, Thou, sone of man, reise thin iyen to the weie of the north; and Y reiside myn iyen to the weie of the north, and lo! fro the north of the yate of the auter the idol of enuye was in that entryng.
6 Ɔkaa kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, wohunu deɛ wɔreyɛ yi, akyiwadeɛ a ɛmfra, a Israel fie reyɛ wɔ ha yi, nneɛma a ɛbɛpam me afiri me kronkronbea akɔ akyirikyiri yi? Nanso wobɛhunu nneɛma a ɛsene akyiwadeɛ yi koraa.”
And he seide to me, Sone of man, gessist thou whether thou seest what thing these men doon, the grete abhomynaciouns whiche the hous of Israel doith here, that Y go fer awei fro my seyntuarie? and yit thou schalt turne, and schalt se grettere abhomynaciouns.
7 Afei, ɔde me baa adihɔ hɔ ɛpono no ano. Mehwɛeɛ na mehunuu tokuro wɔ ɔfasuo no mu.
And he ledde me with ynne to the dore of the halle; and Y siy, and lo! oon hoole in the wal.
8 Ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, bɔ ɔfasuo no mu tokuro.” Enti mebɔɔ ɔfasuo no mu tokuro, na mehunuu ɛpono ano kwan bi wɔ hɔ.
And he seide to me, Sone of man, digge thou the wal; and whanne Y hadde diggid the wal, o dore apperide.
9 Ɔkaa kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Kɔ mu na kɔhwɛ atirimuɔdensɛm ne akyiwadeɛ a wɔreyɛ wɔ ha.”
And he seide to me, Entre thou, and se the worste abhomynaciouns, whiche these men doon here.
10 Enti mekɔɔ mu kɔhwɛeɛ, na mehunuu afasuo a wɔayɛ mmoa a wɔwea ahodoɔ nyinaa ne mmoa a wɔyɛ akyiwadeɛ ne Israel fie ahoni ahodoɔ nyinaa mfoni wɔ ho nyinaa.
And Y entride, and siy; and lo! ech licnesse of `crepynge beestis, and abhomynacioun of beestis, and alle idols of the hous of Israel, weren peyntid in the wal al aboute in cumpas.
11 Wɔn anim na na Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ aduɔson gyinagyina a na Safan babarima Yaasania gyina wɔn mu. Na wɔn mu biara kura nkankyee ntrawantrawa a aduhwam wisie hwamhwam firi so rekɔ soro.
And seuenti men of the eldere of the hous of Israel stoden; and Jeconye, the sone of Saphan, stood in the myddis of hem, stondynge bifore the peyntyngis; and ech man hadde a censere in his hond, and the smoke of a cloude of encense stiede.
12 Ɔbisaa me sɛ, “Onipa ba woahunu deɛ Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ reyɛ wɔ esum no mu. Obiara wɔ nʼankasa ahoni abosonnan mu. Wɔka sɛ, ‘Awurade nhunu yɛn; Awurade agya asase no!’”
And he seide to me, Certis, sone of man, thou seest what thingis the eldere men of the hous of Israel doen in derknessis, ech man in the hid place of his bed; for thei seiyn, The Lord seeth not vs, the Lord hath forsake the lond.
13 Ɔkaa bio sɛ, “Wobɛhunu sɛ wɔreyɛ nneɛma a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ a mpo ɛsene yei.”
And the Lord seide to me, Yit thou schalt turne, and schalt se gretter abhomynaciouns, whiche these men doon.
14 Afei ɔde me baa Awurade efie no atifi ɛpono no kwan ano, na mehunuu mmaa a wɔtete hɔ resu Tamus.
And he ledde me with ynne, bi the dore of the yate of the hous of the Lord, which dore bihelde to the north; and lo! wymmen saten there, biweilynge Adonydes.
15 Ɔbisaa me sɛ, “Wohunu yei onipa ba? Wobɛhunu nneɛma a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ a ɛsene yei.”
And the Lord seide to me, Certis, sone of man, thou hast seyn; yit thou schalt turne, and schalt se gretere abhomynaciouns than these.
16 Afei, ɔde me baa Awurade efie adihɔ a ɛwɔ mfimfini no, na ɛhɔ, asɔrefie no ano kwan, wɔ abrannaa ne afɔrebukyia no ntam, na ɛhɔ na mmarimma bɛyɛ aduonu enum wɔ. Wɔn akyi kyerɛ Awurade asɔredan na wɔn anim kyerɛ apueeɛ fam no, na wɔrekoto som owia a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam.
And he ledde me with ynne, in to the ynnere halle of the hous of the Lord; and lo! in the dore of the temple of the Lord, bitwixe the porche and the auter, weren as fyue and twenti men hauynge the backis ayens the temple of the Lord, and her faces to the eest; and thei worschipiden at the risyng of the sunne.
17 Ɔbisaa me sɛ, “Woahunu yei, onipa ba? Akyiwadeɛ a Yudafoɔ reyɛ wɔ ha yi yɛ asɛm ketewa anaa? Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde akakabensɛm hyɛ asase no so ma na wɔkɔ so hyɛ me abufuo anaa? Hwɛ, wɔabu me animtia agu mʼanim ase!
And the Lord seide to me, Certis, sone of man, thou hast seyn; whether this is a liyt thing to the hous of Juda, that thei schulden do these abhomynaciouns, whiche thei diden here? For thei filliden the lond with wickidnesse, and turneden to terre me to wraththe; and lo! thei applien a braunche to her nose thirlis.
18 Ɛno enti, me ne wɔn bɛdi no abufuo so. Merenhunu wɔn mmɔbɔ, na meremfa wɔn ho nkyɛ wɔn. Ɛwom sɛ wɔteam tuatua mʼaso, nanso merentie wɔn.”
Therfor and Y schal do in strong veniaunce; myn iye schal not spare, nether Y schal do merci; and whanne thei schulen crie to myn eris with greet vois, Y schal not here hem.
