Exodus 7
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, I have made thee a god to Pharao, and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Mayɛ wo sɛ Onyankopɔn ama Farao na wo nua Aaron nso bɛyɛ wo diyifo.
2 And thou shalt say to him all things that I charge thee, and Aaron thy brother shall speak to Pharao, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of his land.
Asɛm biara a mɛka akyerɛ wo no, ka kyerɛ Aaron, na ɔno nso nka nkyerɛ Farao sɛ ɔmma Israelfo no kwan na womfi Misraim.
3 And I will harden the heart of Pharao, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt.
Na mepirim Farao koma, na mayɛ anwonwade ahorow bebree wɔ Misraim
4 And Pharao will not hearken to you, and I will lay my hand upon Egypt; and will bring out my people the children of Israel with my power out of the land of Egypt with great vengeance.
nanso ɔrentie mo. Na mɛfa atemmu a mu yɛ den so de me nsa ato Misraim so na mayi me nkurɔfo Israelfo no.
5 And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, stretching out my hand upon Egypt, and I will bring out the children of Israel out of the midst of them.
Na sɛ mekyerɛ me tumi kyerɛ Misraimfo no a, wobehu sɛ mene Awurade no, na mayi me nkurɔfo no afi mu.”
6 And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no.
7 And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron his brother was eighty-three years old, when he spoke to Pharao.
Bere a Mose ne Aaron kohyiaa Farao no, na Mose adi mfe aduɔwɔtwe, na Aaron nso adi mfe aduɔwɔtwe abiɛsa.
8 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se,
9 Now if Pharao should speak to you, saying, Give us a sign or a wonder, then shalt thou say to thy brother Aaron, Take thy rod and cast it upon the ground before Pharao, and before his servants, and it shall become a serpent.
“Farao bɛhwehwɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ anwonwade akyerɛ no ama wahu sɛ, nokware, Onyankopɔn na wasoma mo. Sɛ obisa saa a, Aaron ntow ne pema no nkyene fam na ɛbɛdan ɔwɔ.”
10 And Moses and Aaron went in before Pharao, and [before] his servants, and they did so, as the Lord commanded them; and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharao, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
Enti Mose ne Aaron kɔɔ Farao nkyɛn kɔyɛɛ anwonwade no sɛnea Awurade akyerɛ wɔn no. Aaron tow ne pema no kyenee fam wɔ Farao ne ne nkurɔfo anim ma ɛdan ɔwɔ.
11 But Pharao called together the wise men of Egypt, and the sorcerers, and the charmers also of the Egyptians did likewise with their sorceries.
Farao nso frɛɛ nʼanyansafo ne ne nkonyaayifo a wɔwɔ Misraim ma wɔn nso bɛyɛɛ anwonwade koro no ara bi.
12 And they cast down each his rod, and they became serpents, but the rod of Aaron swallowed up their rods.
Wɔn nso pema tumi dan ɔwɔ. Nanso Aaron ɔwɔ no menee wɔn de no.
13 and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord charged them.
Farao kɔɔ so yɛɛ komaden a na ɔmpɛ sɛ otie asɛm a Awurade kae no.
14 and the Lord said to Moses, The heart of Pharao is made hard, so that he should not let the people go.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Farao apirim ne koma nti, ɔbɛkɔ so asiw nnipa no kwan sɛ ɔremma wɔnkɔ.
15 Go to Pharao early in the morning: behold, he goes forth to the water; and thou shalt meet him on the bank of the river, and thou shalt take in thine hand the rod that was turned into a serpent.
Nanso Awurade kae se: San kɔ Farao nkyɛn anɔpa a ɔrekɔ asubɔnten no mu. Kogyina asu no konkɔn so na hyia no wɔ hɔ a wukura wo pema a ɛdan ɔwɔ no.
16 And thou shalt say to him, The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to thee, saying, Send my people away, that they may serve me in the wilderness, and, behold, hitherto thou hast not hearkened.
Ka kyerɛ no se, ‘Awurade, Hebrifo Nyankopɔn asan asoma me wo nkyɛn sɛ ma nnipa no kwan na wɔnkɔ nkɔsom me wɔ sare so. Woayɛ asoɔden.
17 These things saith the Lord: Hereby shalt thou know that I am the Lord: behold, I strike with the rod that is in my hand on the water which is in the river, and it shall change it into blood.
Afei, Awurade se: Wubehu sɛ mene Awurade no. Efisɛ maka akyerɛ Mose sɛ ɔmfa ne pema no mmɔ Nil asu no mu na nsu no bɛdan mogya.
18 And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall stink thereupon, and the Egyptians shall not be able to drink water from the river.
Mpataa a wɔwɔ asubɔnten no mu nyinaa bewuwu ama nsu no abɔn a Misraimfo no rentumi nnom.’”
19 And the Lord said to Moses, Say to thy brother Aaron, Take thy rod in thy hand, and stretch forth thy hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers, and over their canals, and over their ponds, and over all their standing water, and it shall become blood: and there was blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and of stone.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Ka kyerɛ Aaron na ɔmfa ne pema no nkyerɛ nsu a ɛwɔ Misraim no nyinaa; wɔn nsubɔnten, wɔn nsuwa, wɔn atare ne wɔn nsu a ɛtaataa hɔ ne nsu a ɛwɔ afi mu nyinaa so na ɛbɛdan mogya.”
20 and Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded them; and [Aaron] having lifted up [his hand] with his rod, smote the water in the river before Pharao, and before his servants, and changed all the water in the river into blood.
Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade ahyɛ wɔn no. Bere a Farao ne ne mpanyimfo gyinagyina hɔ rehwɛ wɔn no, Aaron de pema no bɔɔ Nil ani maa asubɔnten no dan mogya.
21 And the fish in the river died, and the river stank thereupon; and the Egyptians could not drink water from the river, and the blood was in all the land of Egypt.
Mpataa a wɔwɔ mu nyinaa wuwu maa nsu no bɔnee, enti na Misraimfo no ntumi nnom. Misraim asase so nyinaa dan mogya.
22 And the charmers also of the Egyptians did so with their sorceries; and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, even as the Lord said.
Nkonyaayifo a wɔwɔ Misraim nso nam wɔn nkonyaayi so maa nsu dan mogya, nti Farao kɔɔ so pirim ne koma a na ontie asɛm a Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ wɔnka nkyerɛ no no.
23 And Pharao turned and entered into his house, nor did he fix his attention even on this thing.
Ɔsan kɔɔ nʼahemfi a hwee ampusuw no.
24 And all the Egyptians dug round about the river, so as to drink water, for they could not drink water from the river.
Misraimfo no tutuu mmura wɔ asubɔnten no konkɔn so sɛnea wobenya nsu anom, efisɛ na wontumi nnom asubɔnten no mu nsu.
25 and seven days were fulfilled after the Lord has smitten the river.
Asubɔnten a ɛdan mogya no dii nnaawɔtwe.
