Hesekiel 38
1 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn se,
The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
2 “Onipa ba, fa wʼani si Gog, a ɛwɔ Magog asase so no so, Mesek ne Tubal obirɛmpɔn no; hyɛ nkɔm tia no
"Son of man, set your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 na ka se: ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Me ne wo anya. Gog, Mesek ne Tubal birɛmpɔn.
and say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "Look, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 Mekyinkyim wo na mede nnarewa asuso wʼabogye mu na mede wo ne wʼasraafo nyinaa, wʼapɔnkɔ, wʼapɔnkɔsotefo a wɔhyehyɛ akotade ne dɔm kɛse a wokurakura akokyɛm akɛse ne nketewa a wɔn nyinaa rehinhim wɔn afoa, apue.
and I will turn you around, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armor, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them armed with swords;
5 Persia, Kus ne Put a wɔn nyinaa kurakura nkatabo na wɔhyehyɛ wɔn nnadekyɛw bɛka wɔn ho,
Persia, Ethiopia, and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 afei Gomer ne nʼasraafo nyinaa ne Bet-Togarma a wofi atifi fam akyirikyiri ne nʼasraafo, aman bebree bɛka wo ho.
Gomer, and all his troops; the house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all his hordes; even many peoples with you.
7 “‘Siesie wo ho, yɛ krado, wo ne nnipakuw a wɔaboaboa wɔn ho ano wɔ wo nkyɛn nyinaa na yɛ wɔn so hwɛfo.
"'"Be ready and stay ready, you and all your companies who are assembled to you, and be a guard to them.
8 Nna bebree akyi no, wobɛtwe atuo. Mfe bi akyi no wobɛko afa asase bi a wafi ɔko mu afi na wɔaboaboa so nnipa afi amanaman so aba Israel mmepɔw a ada mpan akyɛ no so. Wɔde wɔn fi amanaman no mu, na mprempren wɔn nyinaa te asomdwoe mu.
After many days you shall be summoned: in the latter years you shall come to a land that is restored from war, a gathering from many peoples on the mountains of Israel, that had long been in ruins. Its people were brought out from the peoples, and all of them now live securely.
9 Wo ne wʼasraafo nyinaa ne aman bebrebe a wɔwɔ wo nkyɛn no bɛforo akɔ mo anim sɛ ahum. Mobɛyɛ sɛ omununkum akata asase no so.
You shall advance, coming like a storm. You will be like a cloud covering the land, you, all your troops, and the many other peoples with you."
10 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Saa da no, nsusuwii bi bɛba wo tirim na wubeguan nhyehyɛe bɔne bi.
"'"Thus says Jehovah: "It shall happen on that day, that thoughts shall come into your mind, and you shall devise an an evil scheme:
11 Wobɛka se, “Mɛko afa asase a wɔntoo so nkuraa ho fasu, mɛtow ahyɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ asomdwoe na wɔnnwene hwee so, a wɔn mu biara nni ɔfasu, apon ne akyi adaban.
and you shall say, 'I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to those who who dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates;
12 Mɛfom na mawia na madan me nsa atia amamfo a nnipa abɛtena so ne nnipa a wɔaboa wɔn ano afi amanaman so, nnipa a nyɛmmoa ne aguade abu wɔn so na wɔtete asase no mfimfini no.”
to seize spoil and carry off plunder; to turn my hand against the waste places that are now inhabited, acquired livestock and goods, who live at the center of the earth.'
13 Seba ne Dedan ne Tarsis aguadifo ne ne nkuraa nyinaa bebisa wo se, “Woaba sɛ worebɛfom ana? Woaboa wo dɔm ano sɛ morebewia na moasoa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ, nyɛmmoa ne aguade akɔ na moafa asade bebree abran so ana?”’
Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young warriors will say to you, 'Have you assembled your armies to carry off plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to to seize great spoil?'"'
14 “Ɛno nti, onipa ba, hyɛ nkɔm kyerɛ Gog se, ‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Saa da no, bere a me nkurɔfo Israelfo te hɔ asomdwoe mu no, woanhu ana?
"Therefore, son of man, prophesy, and tell Gog, 'Thus says Jehovah: "On that day when my people Israel are dwelling securely, you will take notice?
15 Wubefi wʼasase so wɔ atifi fam nohɔ tɔnn, wo ne aman bebree a wɔn nyinaa tete apɔnkɔ so, nnipadɔm kɛse, asraafodɔm a ɛso.
You shall come from your place out of the uttermost parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army;
16 Mubetu ateɛ akɔ me nkurɔfo Israelfo so te sɛ omununkum a ɛkata asase no so. Nna a ɛbɛba no mu. Gog, mɛma woasɔre atia mʼasase, sɛnea aman no behu me, bere a menam wo so bɛda me ho adi sɛ ɔkronkronni wɔ wɔn anim no.
and you shall come up against my people Israel, as a cloud covering the land. But when this happens in future days, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me, Gog, when through you I show my holiness in their sight."
17 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛnyɛ wo ne nea menam mʼasomfo Israel adiyifo so kaa wo ho asɛm nna a atwa mu no ana? Saa bere no, wɔde mfe bebree hyɛɛ nkɔm se mɛma wo so de atia wɔn.
"'Thus says Jehovah: "Are you the one of whom I spoke in former days by my servants the prophets of Israel, who in those days prophesied for years that I would bring you against them?"
18 Eyi ne nea ebesi saa da no. Sɛ Gog tow hyɛ Israel asase so a, mʼabufuwhyew bɛsɔre, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
But it shall happen on that day, when Gog shall come against the land of Israel,' says Jehovah, 'that my hot anger will be aroused.
19 Mʼanem ne mʼabufuwhyew mu, mepae mu ka se, saa bere no asasewosow kɛse bɛba Israel asase so.
For in my zeal, in the fire of my fury, I declare that on that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 Po mu mpataa, wim nnomaa, wuram mmoa, abɔde biara a ɛwea wɔ asase so ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa ho bɛpopo wɔ mʼanim. Mmepɔw betutu agu, abotan bedwiriw na afasu nyinaa abubu agu fam.
so that the fish of the sea, and the birds of the sky, and the animals of the field, and all crawling creatures who crawl on the land, and all people who are on the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence. And the mountains shall be thrown down, and the cliffs shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 Mɛfrɛ afoa aba Gog so wɔ me mmepɔw nyinaa so, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni. Wɔde afoa bɛsɔre atia wɔn ho wɔn ho.
I will call for a sword against him on all my mountains,' says Jehovah: 'every man's sword shall be against his brother.
22 Mede ɔyaredɔm ne mogyahwiegu bebu no atɛn, mehwie osuhweam, mparuwbo, ogya ne sufre a ɛdɛw agu ɔno ne nʼasraafo ne aman bebree a wɔka ne ho no so.
With pestilence and with bloodshed I will enter into judgment with him; and I will rain on him, and on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, torrential rains and hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 Enti mɛda me kɛseyɛ ne me kronkronyɛ adi, na mama amanaman ahu me. Afei wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no.’
I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am Jehovah.'
