< Ezekiel 38 >

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
2 Son of man, set thy face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
“Onipa ba, fa wʼani si Gog, a ɛwɔ Magog asase so no so, Mesek ne Tubal ɔberempɔn no; hyɛ nkɔm tia no
3 and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:
na ka sɛ: ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Me ne wo anya, Gog, Mesek ne Tubal ɔberempɔn.
4 and I will turn thee about, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armour, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them handling swords:
Mɛkyinkyim wo na mede nnarewa asosɔ wʼapantan mu, na mede wo ne wʼakodɔm nyinaa, wʼapɔnkɔ, wʼapɔnkɔtesofoɔ a wɔhyehyɛ akotaadeɛ ne ɛdɔm kɛseɛ a wɔkurakura akokyɛm akɛseɛ ne nketewa a wɔn nyinaa rehinhim wɔn akofena, apue.
5 Persia, Cush, and Put with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
Persia, Kus ne Put a wɔn nyinaa kurakura akokyɛm na wɔhyehyɛ wɔn dadeɛ kyɛ bɛka wɔn ho,
6 Gomer, and all his hordes; the house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all his hordes: even many peoples with thee.
afei Gomer ne nʼasraafoɔ nyinaa ne Bet-Togarma a wɔfiri atifi fam akyirikyiri ne nʼasraafoɔ ne aman bebree bɛka wo ho.
7 Be thou prepared, yea, prepare thyself, thou, and all thy companies that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
“‘Siesie wo ho, yɛ krado, wo ne nipakuo a wɔaboaboa wɔn ho ano wɔ wo nkyɛn nyinaa na yɛ wɔn so hwɛfoɔ.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, that is gathered out of many peoples, upon the mountains of Israel, which have been a continual waste: but it is brought forth out of the peoples, and they shall dwell securely, all of them.
Nna bebree akyi no, wobɛtwe atuo. Mfeɛ bi akyi no wobɛko afa asase bi a wafiri ɔko mu afirie na wɔaboaboa ɛso nnipa afiri amanaman so aba Israel mmepɔ a ada mpan akyɛre no so. Wɔde wɔn fifiri amanaman no mu, na seesei wɔn nyinaa te asomdwoeɛ mu.
9 And thou shalt ascend, thou shalt come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy hordes, and many peoples with thee.
Wo ne wʼasraafoɔ nyinaa ne aman bebrebe a wɔwɔ wo nkyɛn no bɛforo akɔ mo anim sɛ ahum. Mobɛyɛ sɛ omununkum akata asase no so.
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD: It shall come to pass in that day, that things shall come into thy mind, and thou shalt devise an evil device:
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Saa ɛda no, nsusuiɛ bi bɛba wo tirim na wobɛdwene nhyehyɛeɛ bɔne bi.
11 and thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at quiet, that dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates:
Wobɛka sɛ, “Mɛko afa asase a wɔntoo ɛso nkuraa ho fasuo. Mɛto ahyɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ asomdwoeɛ na wɔnnwene hwee ho, a wɔn mu biara nni ɔfasuo, apono ne akyi adaban.
12 to take the spoil and to take the prey; to turn thine hand against the waste places that are [now] inhabited, and against the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the middle of the earth.
Mɛfom na mawia na madane me nsa atia amanfo a nnipa abɛtena soɔ ne nnipa a wɔaboa wɔn ano afiri amanaman so, nnipa a ayɛmmoa ne adwadideɛ abu wɔn soɔ na wɔtete asase no mfimfini.”
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish; with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take the spoil? hast thou assembled thy company to take the prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take great spoil?
Seba ne Dedan ne Tarsis adwadifoɔ ne ne nkuraase nyinaa bɛbisa wo sɛ, “Woaba sɛ worebɛfom anaa? Woaboa wo dɔm ano sɛ morebɛwia na moasoa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ, ayɛmmoa ne adwadideɛ akɔ na moafa afodeɛ bebree abranso anaa?”’
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy, and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD: In that day when my people Israel dwelleth securely, shalt thou not know it?
“Ɛno enti, onipa ba hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ Gog sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Saa ɛda no, ɛberɛ a me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ te hɔ asomdwoeɛ mu no, worennwene ho anaa?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the uttermost parts of the north, thou, and many peoples with thee, all of them riding upon horses; a great company and a mighty army:
Wobɛfiri wʼasase so wɔ atifi fam nohoa tɔnn, wo ne aman bebree a wɔn nyinaa tete apɔnkɔ soɔ, nipadɔm kɛseɛ, asraadɔm a ɛso.
16 and thou shalt come up against my people Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring thee against my land, that the nations may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
Mobɛtu atene akɔtia me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ te sɛ omununkum a ɛkata asase no so. Nna a ɛbɛba no mu, Gog, mɛma woasɔre atia mʼasase, sɛdeɛ aman no bɛhunu me, ɛberɛ a menam wo so bɛda me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni wɔ wɔn anim.
17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Art thou he of whom I spake in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days for [many] years that I would bring thee against them?
“‘Yei ne deɛ Otumfoɔ Awurade seɛ: Ɛnyɛ wo ne deɛ menam mʼasomfoɔ Israel adiyifoɔ so kaa wo ho asɛm nna a atwam no anaa? Saa ɛberɛ no, wɔde mfeɛ bebree hyɛɛ nkɔm sɛ mɛma wo so de atia wɔn.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up into my nostrils.
Yei ne deɛ ɛbɛsi saa ɛda no. Sɛ Gog to hyɛ Israel asase so a, mʼabufuhyeɛ bɛsɔre, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie.
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
Mʼanem ne mʼabufuhyeɛ mu, mepae mu ka sɛ, saa ɛberɛ no asasewosoɔ kɛseɛ bɛba Israel asase so.
20 so that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
Ɛpo mu mpataa, ewiem nnomaa, wiram mmoa, abɔdeɛ biara a ɛwea asase soɔ ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa ho bɛpopo wɔ mʼanim. Mmepɔ bɛtutu agu, abotan bɛdwiri na afasuo nyinaa abubu agu fam.
21 And I will call for a sword against him unto all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
Mɛfrɛ akofena abɛtia Gog wɔ me mmepɔ nyinaa so, Otumfoɔ Awurade asɛm nie. Wɔde akofena bɛsɔre atia wɔn ho wɔn ho.
22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood: and I will rain upon him, and upon his hordes, and upon the many peoples that are with him, an overflowing shower, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Mede ɔyaredɔm ne mogyahwiegu bɛbu no atɛn, mɛhwie osubrane, ampariboɔ, ogya ne sɔfe a ɛdɛre agu ɔno ne nʼasraafoɔ ne aman bebree a wɔka ne ho no so.
23 And I will magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and I will make myself known in the eyes of many nations; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Enti mɛda me kɛseyɛ ne me kronkronyɛ adi, na mama amanaman ahunu me. Afei wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade no.’
