< 1 Chronicles 5 >
1 These were the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel. Though he was the firstborn, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, because Reuben defiled his father’s bed. So he is not reckoned according to birthright.
Na Israel babarima panyin ne Ruben. Nanso esiane sɛ wammu nʼagya, na ɔne nʼagya mpenanom no mu baako kɔdae no nti, ɔde nʼabakanyɛ maa ne nua Yosef mmabarima. Esiane saa asɛm yi nti, wɔamfa Ruben din anka anato no ho sɛ abakan.
2 And though Judah prevailed over his brothers and a ruler came from him, the birthright belonged to Joseph.
Yuda asefo na wɔyɛɛ abusuakuw a wɔwɔ tumi pa ara; ne saa nti woyii ɔman no sodifo fii wɔn mu, nanso mpanyinni no de, na ɛyɛ Yosef dea.
3 The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Israel abakan Ruben no mmabarima ne: Hanok, Palu, Hesron ne Karmi.
4 The descendants of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,
Yoel asefo ne Semaia, Gog, Simei,
5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,
Mika, Reaia, Baal,
6 and Beerah his son, whom Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria carried into exile. Beerah was a leader of the Reubenites.

7 His relatives by their clans are recorded in their genealogy: Jeiel the chief, Zechariah,
Wɔakyerɛw Beera nkurɔfo din sɛnea wɔn mmusua ne abusua no te: Yeiel ne wɔn ntuanoni, na Sakaria
8 and Bela son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel. They settled in Aroer and as far as Nebo and Baal-meon.
ne Asas babarima Bela a ɔyɛ Sema babarima a ɔyɛ Yoel babarima. Saa Rubenfo yi tenaa beae a efi Aroer de kosi Nebo ne Baal-Meon.
9 They also settled in the east as far as the edge of the desert that extends to the Euphrates River, because their livestock had increased in the land of Gilead.
Esiane sɛ na wɔwɔ anantwi bebree wɔ Gilead asase so no nti, wodidi kɔɔ apuei fam wɔ nweatam a ɛtrɛw kɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate no ho.
10 During the days of Saul they waged war against the Hagrites, who were defeated at their hands, and they occupied the homes of the Hagrites throughout the region east of Gilead.
Ɔhene Saulo bere so, Rubenfo dii Hagarfo so nkonim wɔ ɔko mu. Enti wotu kɔɔ Hagarfo atenae a ɛwɔ Gilead apuei fam hɔ no.
11 The descendants of Gad lived next to the Reubenites in the land of Bashan, as far as Salecah:
Basan asase so no, na Gad asefo na wɔtete asase a edi Rubenfo de no so. Wɔtrɛw kɔɔ apuei fam kosii Saleka.
12 Joel was the chief, Shapham the second, then Jaanai and Shaphat, who lived in Bashan.
Na Yoel na otua wɔn ano wɔ Basan asase so. Na Safam, Yanai ne Safat yɛ nʼaboafo.
13 Their kinsmen by families were Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber—seven in all.
Na wɔn abusuafo a wɔyɛ ntuanofo ma mmusua afoforo ason din ne: Mikael, Mesulam, Seba, Yorai, Yakan, Sia ne Eber.
14 These were the sons of Abihail son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz.
Eyinom nyinaa yɛ Huri babarima Abihail a ɔyɛ Yaroa babarima, Gilead babarima, Mikael babarima, Yesisai babarima Yahdo babarima, Bus babarima.
15 Ahi son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was head of their family.
Abdiel babarima Ahi, Guni babarima no na na ɔyɛ wɔn mmusua no ntuano.
16 They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its towns, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon.
Gadfo no tenaa Gilead asase a ɛwɔ Basan ne ne nkuraa ne Saron tataw no nyinaa so.
17 All of them were reckoned in the genealogies during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel.
Yudahene Yotam ne Israelhene Yeroboam bere so na wɔkyerɛw eyinom nyinaa guu abusuadua nkrataa mu.
18 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors—valiant men who carried the shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for battle.
Na akofo akɛse a wɔwɔ Ruben, Gad mmusua ne Manase abusua fa mu no ano si mpem aduanan anan ahanson ne aduosia. Wokurakura nkatabo, mfoa ne agyan, na wɔn nyinaa akwadaw wɔ akodi mu.
19 They waged war against the Hagrites, as well as Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.
Wɔko tiaa Hagarfo, Yeturfo, Nafisfo ne Nodabfo.
20 And because they cried out to God in battle, they were helped against their enemies, and the Hagrites and all their allies were delivered into their hands. Because they put their trust in God, He answered their prayers.
Wosu frɛɛ Onyankopɔn wɔ ɔko no mu, na otiee wɔn mpaebɔ, efisɛ wɔde wɔn ho too ne so. Enti wodii Hagarfo no ne wɔn dɔm nyinaa so nkonim.
21 They seized the livestock of the Hagrites—50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys. They also took 100,000 captives,
Asade a wɔfa fii Hagarfo no nkyɛn no yɛ yoma mpem aduonum, nguan mpem ahannu aduonum, mfurum mpenu ne nneduafo mpem ɔha.
22 and many others fell slain, because the battle belonged to God. And they occupied the land until the exile.
Wokunkum Hagarfo no bebree wɔ ɔko no mu, efisɛ na Onyankopɔn reko tia wɔn. Enti wɔtenaa wɔn asase so kosii sɛ wotwaa wɔn asu.
23 Now the people of the half-tribe of Manasseh were numerous. They settled in the land from Bashan to Baal-hermon (that is, Senir, also known as Mount Hermon).
Manase abusua fa no trɛw wɔ asase no so fi Basan kosii Baal-Hermon, Senir ne bepɔw Hermon ho. Na wɔdɔɔso yiye.
24 These were the heads of their families: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were mighty men of valor, famous men, and heads of their families.
Eyinom ne wɔn mmusua no ntuanofo: Efer, Yisi, Eliel, Asriel, Yeremia, Hodawia ne Yahdiel. Na wɔn mu biara agye din sɛ ɔkofo kɛse ne ɔkannifo.
25 But they were unfaithful to the God of their fathers, and they prostituted themselves with the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them.
Nanso na wonni nokware, na wobuu wɔn agyanom ne Onyankopɔn apam no so. Wɔsom aman a Onyankopɔn sɛee wɔn no anyame.
26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (that is, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria) to take the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh into exile. And he brought them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan, where they remain to this day.
Enti Israel Nyankopɔn de hyɛɛ Asiriahene Pul (a na wɔsan frɛ no Tilgat-Pilneser) koma mu sɛ ɔnko mfa asase no, na ɔnkyekyere Rubenfo, Gadfo ne Manasefo abusua fa sɛ nneduafo. Asiriafo no twaa wɔn asu kɔɔ Halah, Habor, Hara ne Asubɔnten Gosan ho a wɔda so te hɔ besi nnɛ.
