Hesekiel 26:1-21
26 Afe a ɛto so 11, bosome no da a edi kan no, Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ:
2 “Onipa ba, Tiro akasa atia Yerusalem+ sɛ, ‘Ɔtwea! Wɔabubu amanaman no pon no!+ Afei biribiara bɛba abedi me nsam. Seesei a wɔasɛe no yi, mɛyɛ ɔdefo.’
3 Eyi nti, nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka ni: ‘Tiro, me ne wo wɔ asɛm, na mede aman pii bɛba wo so sɛnea ɛpo bɔ n’asorɔkye ba no.
4 Wɔbɛsɛe Tiro afasu na wɔadwiriw n’aban agu,+ na mɛwerɛwerɛw ne ho dɔte ma wayɛ ɔbotan kwaboo.
5 Ɔbɛdan baabi a wɔhata asau wɔ ɛpo mfinimfini.’+
“Awurade Tumfo Yehowa asɛm ni, ‘Me na maka, na amanaman bɛfa Tiro sɛ nneɛma a wɔasesaw wɔ ɔko mu.
6 Na wɔde sekan bekunkum nkurɔfo a wɔwɔ ne nkuraase* a atwa ne ho ahyia no, na nnipa behu sɛ mene Yehowa.’
7 “Nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka ni, ‘Mɛma Babilon hene Nebukadnesar* afi atifi fam aba Tiro so.+ Ɔyɛ ahemfo mu hene,+ na ɔde apɔnkɔ+ ne nteaseɛnam+ ne asraafo a wɔtete apɔnkɔ so ne asraafodɔm kɛse* na ɛbɛba.
8 Nnipa a wɔwɔ nkuraase a atwa wo ho ahyia no, ɔde sekan bekunkum wɔn, obegye ban atwa wo ho ahyia na wato akoban,* na ɔde kyɛm kɛse aba wo so.
9 Ɔde n’afiri* bedwiriw w’afasu na ɔde n’abonnua* abubu w’aban.
10 N’apɔnkɔ bɛdɔɔso ara ma ɛbɛma mfuturu akata wo so. Sɛ ɔfa w’apon mu ba wo so a, wɔn a wɔtete apɔnkɔ so ne ntwahonan ne nteaseɛnam no nnyigyei bɛma w’afasu awosow; ɛbɛyɛ te sɛ nea mmarima abɔ awura kurow a n’afasu abubu mu.
11 Ɔde n’apɔnkɔ nan betiatia w’akwantempɔn nyinaa so;+ ɔde sekan bekunkum wo nkurɔfo, na w’adum akɛse no ahwehwe fam.
12 Wɔbɛfa w’ahode na wɔafom nneɛma a wotɔn,+ wobebubu w’afasu na wɔadwiriw w’adan fɛfɛ no agu; afei wɔde w’abo, nneɛma a wode nnua ayɛ, ne wo dɔte begu nsu mu.’
13 “‘Mɛma wo nnwonto gyegyeegye no agyae, na wɔrente w’asanku nnyigyei bio.+
14 Mɛma woayɛ ɔbotan kwaboo, na woadan baabi a wɔhata asau.+ Wɔrensan nkyekye wo sɛ kurow bio. Me, Yehowa, na maka,’ Awurade Tumfo Yehowa asɛm ni.
15 “Nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka akyerɛ Tiro ni: ‘Sɛ wohwe ase, na wɔn a wɔrewuwu* no penepene, na wokunkum wo mu nnipa, na sɛ nsupɔw no te a, wɔn ho rempopo anaa?+
16 Ɛpo so abirɛmpɔn* nyinaa befi wɔn agua so asisi fam, na wobeyiyi wɔn ntaade* ne wɔn ntama a wɔadi mu adwini no agu hɔ, na wɔn ho bɛpopo.* Wɔbɛtenatena fam na wɔn ho apopo saa ara, na wɔatɛɛ wɔn anom ahwɛ wo.+
17 Na wɔbɛto wo ho awerɛhow dwom*+ na wɔaka akyerɛ wo sɛ:
“Kurow a wɔn a wɔte po so bɛtenaa wo mu, kurow a wɔkamfoo wo, hwɛ sɛnea woahwe ase;+Wo ne wɔn a wɔtete wo mu no, na mo ho yɛ den wɔ ɛpo so,+Momaa asaase sofo nyinaa bɔɔ hu!
18 Ɛda a wobɛhwe ase no, nsupɔw no ho bɛpopo.Sɛ w’awiei ba a, ɛbɛhaw nsupɔw no.”’+
19 “Nea Awurade Tumfo Yehowa aka ni: ‘Sɛ mesɛe wo te sɛ nkurow a obiara nte mu, na mema ɛpo asorɔkye kata wo so na nsu pii yiri fa wo so+ a,
20 mede wo bɛka wɔn a wɔrekɔ amoa* mu no ho, na woakɔka wɔn a wɔtenaa ase teteete no ho; mɛma wo ne wɔn a wɔrekɔ amoa mu no atena asaase ase tɔnn,+ baabi a ɛte sɛ tete mmeae a ada mpan no, na obiara rentena wo mu bio. Na mɛhyɛ ateasefo asaase anuonyam.*
21 “‘Mɛma ehu atɔ wo so mpofirim, na worentena hɔ bio.+ Nnipa bɛhwehwɛ wo, nanso wɔrenhu wo bio da,’ Awurade Tumfo Yehowa asɛm ni.”
