Yeremia 42
1 Afei, asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ no nyinaa a Karea babarima Yohanan ne Hosaia babarima Yesania ka ho ne nnipa no nyinaa, ɛfiri akumaa so kɔsi ɔkɛseɛ so kɔɔ
And alle the princes of werriours neiyiden, and Johannan, the sone of Caree, and Jeconye, the sone of Josie, and the residue comyn puple, fro a litil man `til to a greet man.
2 odiyifoɔ Yeremia nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛsrɛ wo, tie yɛn adesrɛ yi na bɔ Awurade wo Onyankopɔn mpaeɛ ma saa nkaeɛfoɔ yi nyinaa. Sɛdeɛ wohunu no, kane no na yɛdɔɔso nanso afei yɛaka kakraa bi.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, the profete, Oure preier falle in thi siyt, and preie thou for vs to thi Lord God, for alle these remenauntis; for we ben left a fewe of manye, as thin iyen biholden vs; and thi Lord God telle to vs the weie,
3 Bɔ mpaeɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade wo Onyankopɔn bɛkyerɛ yɛn baabi a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ ne deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ.”
bi which we schulen go, and the word which we schulen do.
4 Yeremia buaa wɔn sɛ, “Mate mo asɛm no, na ɛkwan biara so mɛbɔ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn mpaeɛ sɛdeɛ mo asrɛ no; mɛka deɛ Awurade bɛka biara akyerɛ mo na meremfa hwee nsie mo.”
Forsothe Jeremye, the profete, seide to hem, Y haue herd; lo! Y preye to oure Lord God, bi youre wordis; Y schal schewe to you ech word, what euere word the Lord schal answere to me, nether Y schal hide ony thing fro you.
5 Na afei, wɔka kyerɛɛ Yeremia sɛ, “Sɛ yɛanyɛ deɛ Awurade wo Onyankopɔn soma wo sɛ ka kyerɛ yɛn no a, ma ɔnyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafoɔ ntia yɛn.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, The Lord be witnesse of treuthe and of feith bitwixe vs; if not bi ech word, in which thi Lord God schal sende thee to vs, so we schulen do, whether it be good ether yuel.
6 Sɛ yɛpɛ o, sɛ yɛmpɛ o, yɛbɛyɛ ɔsetie ama Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn a yɛresoma wo wɔ ne nkyɛn no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛsi yɛn yie, na yɛbɛdi Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn asɛm so.”
We schulen obeie to the vois of oure Lord God, to whom we senden thee, that it be wel to vs, whanne we han herd the vois of oure Lord God.
7 Dadu akyi no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia hɔ.
Forsothe whanne ten daies weren fillid, the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye.
8 Enti, ɔfrɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan ne asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ a wɔka ne ho ne nnipa no nyinaa; ɛfiri akumaa so kɔsi ɔkɛseɛ so.
And he clepide Johannan, the sone of Caree, and alle the princes of werriours, that weren with hym, and al the puple fro the leste `til to the mooste; and he seide to hem,
9 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a mosomaa me sɛ memfa mo adesrɛ nkɔto nʼanim no seɛ:
The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, to whom ye senten me, that Y schulde mekeli sette forth youre preyeris in his siyt.
10 ‘Sɛ motena asase yi so a, mɛsiesie mo na merensɛe mo, mɛdua mo na merentu mo ase, ɛfiri sɛ me werɛ aho wɔ amanehunu a mama aba mo so no ho.
If ye resten, and dwellen in this lond, Y schal bilde you, and Y schal not distrie; Y schal plaunte, and Y schal not drawe out; for now Y am plesid on the yuel which Y dide to you.
11 Monnsuro Babiloniahene a seesei mosuro noɔ no. Monnsuro no, Awurade na ɔseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, me ne mo wɔ hɔ, mɛgye mo, na mayi mo afiri ne tumi ase.
Nyle ye drede of the face of the kyng of Babiloyne, whom ye `that ben ferdful, dreden; nyle ye drede hym, seith the Lord, for Y am with you, to make you saaf, and to delyuere fro his hond.
12 Mɛhu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔno nso ahu mo mmɔbɔ na ɔde mo asane aba mo asase so.’
And Y schal yyue mercies to you, and Y schal haue merci on you, and Y schal make you dwelle in youre lond.
13 “Nanso sɛ moka sɛ, ‘Yɛrentena saa asase yi so,’ na ne saa enti moanyɛ ɔsetie amma Awurade mo Onyankopɔn,
Forsothe if ye seien, We schulen not dwelle in this lond, nether we schulen here the vois of oure Lord God, and seie,
14 na moka sɛ, ‘Dabi, yɛbɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, baabi a yɛrenhunu ɔko, na yɛrente totorobɛnto nnyegyeeɛ na aduanekɔm nne yɛn a,’
Nai, but we schulen go to the lond of Egipt, where we schulen not se batel, and schulen not here the noise of trumpe, and we schulen not suffre hungur, and there we schulen dwelle;
15 ɛnneɛ tie Awurade asɛm, Ao Yuda nkaeɛfoɔ. Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ, ‘Sɛ moayɛ mo adwene sɛ mobɛkɔ akɔtena Misraim, na sɛ monya kɔtena hɔ a,
for this thing, ye remenauntis of Juda, here now the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, If ye setten youre face, for to entre in to Egipt, and if ye entren,
16 ɛnneɛ akofena a mosuro no bɛto mo wɔ hɔ na ɛkɔm a mo akoma tu wɔ ho no bɛdi mo akyi akɔ Misraim, na ɛhɔ na mobɛwuwu.
to dwelle there, the swerd whiche ye dreden schal take you there in the lond of Egipt, and the hungur for which ye ben angwischid schal cleue to you in Egipt; and there ye schulen die.
17 Nokorɛm, wɔn a wɔasi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wɔbɛkɔ Misraim akɔtena hɔ no bɛwuwu wɔ akofena, ɛkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano, na wɔn mu baako mpo renka anaa ɔrennwane mfiri amanehunu a mede bɛba wɔn so no mu.’
And alle the men that settiden her face, to entre in to Egipt, and to dwelle there, schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; no man of hem schal dwelle stille, nether schal aschape fro the face of yuel, which Y schal brynge on hem.
18 Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ, ‘Sɛdeɛ mʼabufuo ne mʼabufuhyeɛ hwie guu nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem soɔ no, saa ara na sɛ mokɔ Misraim a, mʼabufuhyeɛ bɛhwie agu mo so. Mobɛyɛ nnomedeɛ, ahodwiredeɛ, afɔbuo ne ahohora; morenhunu saa beaeɛ yi bio.’
For why the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, As my strong veniaunce and myn indignacioun is wellid togidere on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, so myn indignacioun schal be wellid togidere on you, whanne ye han entrid in to Egipt; and ye schulen be in to sweryng, and in to wondring, and in to cursyng, and in to schenschipe; and ye schulen no more se this place.
19 “Ao Yuda nkaeɛfoɔ, Awurade aka akyerɛ mo sɛ, ‘Monnkɔ Misraim.’ Mommma mo werɛ mfiri. Ɛnnɛ merebɔ mo kɔkɔ
The word of the Lord is on you, ye remenauntis of Juda; nyle ye entre in to Egipt; ye witinge schulen wite, that Y haue witnessid to you to dai;
20 sɛ moyɛɛ mfomsoɔ a ɛyɛ hu yie ɛberɛ a mosomaa me kɔɔ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn hɔ, na mokaa sɛ, ‘Bɔ Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn mpaeɛ ma yɛn, na ka deɛ ɔka biara kyerɛ yɛn, na yɛbɛyɛ,’ no.
for ye han disseyued youre soulis, for ye senten me to youre Lord God, and seiden, Preye thou for vs to oure Lord God, and bi alle thingis what euer thingis oure Lord schal seie to thee, so telle thou to vs, and we schulen do.
21 Ɛnnɛ, maka akyerɛ mo, nanso monyɛɛ ɔsetie mmaa Awurade mo Onyankopɔn ara wɔ biribiara a ɔhyɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ mo no ho.
And Y telde to you to dai, and ye herden not the vois of youre Lord God, on alle thingis for whiche he sente me to you.
22 Enti, afei mommma mo werɛ mfiri sɛ mobɛwuwu wɔ akofena, ɛkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm ano wɔ baabi a mopɛ sɛ mokɔtena hɔ no.”
Now therfor ye witynge schulen wite, for ye schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, in the place to which ye wolden entre, to dwelle there.
