1 Memaa mʼani so bio, na mehunuu nteaseɛnam ɛnan a ɛfiri mmepɔ mmienu ntam reba, mmepɔ no yɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ.
And Y was conuertid, and reiside myn iyen, and siy, and lo! foure horsid cartis goynge out of the myddil of tweyne hillis, and the hillis weren hillis of bras.
2 Teaseɛnam a ɛdi ɛkan no, na apɔnkɔ kɔkɔɔ na ɛtwe, na apɔnkɔ tuntum nso twe deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu no.
In the firste foure horsid carte weren reed horsis, and in the secounde foure horsid carte weren blac horsis;
3 Deɛ ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa no, na apɔnkɔ fitaa na ɛtwe. Deɛ ɛto so ɛnan no, na apɔnkɔ ntokontrama na ɛtwe, na apɔnkɔ no nyinaa ho yɛ den.
and in the thridde foure horsid carte weren white horsis, and in the fourthe foure horsid carte weren dyuerse horsis, and stronge.
4 Mebisaa ɔbɔfoɔ a na ɔne me rekasa no sɛ, “Me wura, yeinom yɛ ɛdeɛn?”
And Y answeride, and seide to the aungel that spak in me, What ben these thingis, my lord?
5 Ɔbɔfoɔ no buaa me sɛ, “Yeinom yɛ ahonhom ɛnan a wɔfiri soro, na wɔrefiri ewiase nyinaa Awurade no anim akɔ.
And the aungel aunsweride, and seide to me, These ben foure wyndis of heuene, whiche goen out, that thei stonde bifor the lordschipere of al erthe.
6 Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ tuntum retwe no rekɔ ɔman a ɛwɔ atifi fam no so. Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ fitaa retwe no rekɔ atɔeɛ fam; na deɛ apɔnkɔ ntokontrama twe no rekɔ anafoɔ fam.”
In which weren blake horsis, wenten out in to the lond of the north; and the white wenten out aftir hem; and the dyuerse wenten out to the lond of the south.
7 Apɔnkɔ ahoɔdenfoɔ no firii adi no, wɔpɛɛ sɛ wɔkɔ asase nyinaa so. Na ɔbɔfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Monkɔ asase nyinaa so!” Enti wɔkɔɔ asase so mmaa nyinaa.
Forsothe thei that weren strengeste wenten out, and souyten for to go, and renne aboute bi al erthe. And he seide, Go ye, and walke ye thorouy the erthe. And thei walkiden thorouy erthe.
8 Afei, ɔfrɛɛ me sɛ, “Hwɛ, wɔn a wɔrekɔ atifi fam ɔman so no ama me Honhom ahomegyeɛ wɔ atifi fam asase no so.”
And he clepide me, and spak to me, and seide, Lo! thei that goon out in to lond of north, maden my spirit for to reste in the lond of north.
9 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn. Ɔkaa sɛ,
And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and seide,
10 “Gye sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ firi atukɔfoɔ, Heldai, Tobia ne Yedaia a wɔfiri Babilonia aba no nkyɛn. Ɛda no ara kɔ Sefania babarima Yosia fie.
Take thou of the transmygracioun, ether caitiftee, of Oldai, and of Tobie, and of Idaye; and thou schalt come in that dai, and schalt entre in to the hous of Josie, sone of Sofonye, that camen fro Babiloyne.
11 Gye dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ na fa yɛ ahenkyɛ, hyɛ ɔsɔfopanin Yosua a ɔyɛ Yehosadak babarima no ti.
And thou schalt take gold and siluer, and schalt make corouns, and putte on the heed of Jhesu, the greet preest, sone of Josedech;
12 Ka kyerɛ no sɛ, sei na Asafo Awurade seɛ: ‘Ɔbarima a wɔfrɛ no Dubaa no nie, na ɔbɛfefɛ afiri hɔ akɔsi Awurade asɔredan no.
and schalt speke to hym, and seie, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, seiynge, Lo! a man, Comynge forth, ether Borun, is his name, and vndir him it schal sprynge. And he schal bilde a temple to the Lord,
13 Ɔno na ɔbɛsi Awurade asɔredan no, na wɔbɛhyɛ no animuonyam, na ɔbɛtena nʼahennwa so adi ne ɔhene, na ɔbɛyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ wɔ nʼahennwa so. Afei asomdwoeɛ bɛba mmienu no ntam.’
and he schal make a temple to the Lord; and he schal bere glorie, and schal sitte, and schal be lord on his seete; and the preest schal be on his seete, and counsel of pees schal be bitwixe hem tweyne.
14 Wɔde ahenkyɛ no bɛma Heldai, Tobia, Yedaia ne Sefania babarima Hen, na wɔde ayɛ nkae adeɛ wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
And corouns schulen be to Helem, and to Tobie, and to Idaie, and to Hen, sone of Sofonye, a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
15 Wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri no bɛba abɛboa Awurade asɔredan no si, na mobɛhunu sɛ Asafo Awurade na wasoma me mo nkyɛn. Sɛ moyɛ ɔsetie ma Awurade mo Onyankopɔn nokorɛ mu a, yei bɛba mu.”
And thei that ben fer, schulen come, and bilde in the temple of the Lord; and ye schulen wite, that the Lord of oostis sente me to you. Sotheli this thing schal be, if bi heryng ye schulen here the vois of youre Lord God.
