Yesaia
“Nsuro, na magye wo.+
Mabɔ wo din afrɛ wo.
Woyɛ me dea.
Sɛ wofa ogya mu a, ɛrenhyew wo,
Na ogyaframa renhyew wo ho nwi mpo.
3 Efisɛ mene Yehowa wo Nyankopɔn,
Israel Kronkronni no, wo Gyefo no.
Mede Egypt ayɛ agyede ama wo,
Na mede Etiopia ne Seba asi w’ananmu.
Ɛno nti mede nnipa besi w’ananmu,
Na mede aman asi wo nkwa* ananmu.
6 Mɛka akyerɛ atifi fam sɛ, ‘Gyaa wɔn!’+
Na maka akyerɛ anaafo fam sɛ, ‘Nnye wɔn nka hɔ.
Fa me mma mmarima fi akyirikyiri bra, na fa me mma mmea fi asaase ano bra,+
Ne nea mabɔ no de ahyɛ me ho anuonyam,
Nea manwene no, ne nea mayɛ no biara.’+
Wɔn mu hena na obetumi aka eyi?
Anaa wobetumi ama yɛate kan nneɛma* no ho asɛm?+
Ma wɔmfa wɔn adansefo mmra na wɔmfa mmebu wɔn ho bem,
Anaasɛ ma wɔnte na wɔnka sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ nokware!’”+
10 Yehowa asɛm ni: “Mone m’adansefo,+
Yiw, m’akoa a mapaw no,+
Na ama moahu, na moagye me adi,*
Na moahu sɛ me ara mene no.+
Wɔnnwenee Onyankopɔn bi m’anim,
Na m’akyi nso, obi nni hɔ.+
11 Me ara mene Yehowa,+ na m’akyi no, ogyefo biara nni hɔ.”+
12 Yehowa asɛm ni: “Me na mekae, na migyee nkwa, na mema wɔtee,
Bere a na onyame foforo biara nni mo mu no.+
Enti mone m’adansefo, na mene Onyankopɔn.+
13 Bio nso, mete sɛnea mete bere nyinaa;+
Obiara rentumi nhwim biribiara mfi me nsam.+
Sɛ mekeka me ho a, hena na obetumi asiw me kwan?”+
14 Yehowa, mo Gyefo,+ Israel Kronkronni+ no asɛm ni:
“Mo nti, mɛsoma akɔ Babilon akobubu apon akyi nnade nyinaa,+
Na ahoyeraw nti, Kaldeafo a wɔte po so ahyɛn mu no besu buei! buei!+
15 Mene Yehowa, mo Kronkronni no,+ Israel Bɔfo+ no, mo Hene+ no.”
16 Nea Yehowa
A ɔpae kwan to po mu,
Nea oyi kwan to nsu a ɛrebu fa so mu,+
17 Nea ɔma ɔko nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ fi adi,+
Na ɔma asraafodɔm ne mmarima a wonim ko fi adi no aka ni:
“Wɔbɛda fam, na wɔrensɔre.+
Wobedum wɔn, wobedum wɔn te sɛ nea wodum ntamaban a ɛredɛw.”
18 “Monnkae kan nneɛma no,
Na munnnwen tete nneɛma ho.
Munhu anaa?
20 Wuram mmoa bɛhyɛ me anuonyam,
Sakraman ne nsohori,
Efisɛ mɛma nsu aba sare so,
Na nsubɔnten asen anwea pradadaa so,+
Na me man, nea mapaw no+ no, anom,
21 Ɔman a manwene wɔn afa no,
Sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔbɛka m’ayeyi akyerɛ.+
23 Womfaa oguan mmɔɔ ɔhyew afɔre mmaa me,
Na womfaa w’afɔre nhyɛɛ me anuonyam.
Na mmom wo bɔne ayɛ adesoa wɔ me so,
Na wo mfomso ama mabrɛ.+
26 Kaakae me; ma yenhyia nni asɛm;
Ka w’asɛm na fa kyerɛ sɛ wudi bem.
