Exodus 10
1 Againe the Lord saide vnto Moses, Goe to Pharaoh: for I haue hardened his heart, and the heart of his seruants, that I might worke these my miracles in the middes of his realme,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Sane kɔ Farao nkyɛn na kɔbisa no deɛ mahyɛ sɛ ɔnyɛ mma wo no. Nanso, mapirim ɔne ne mpanimfoɔ nyinaa akoma sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mɛtumi ayɛ anwanwadeɛ bebree akyerɛ wɔn ama wɔahunu me tumi.
2 And that thou maist declare in the eares of thy sonne, and of thy sonnes sonne, what things I haue done in Egypt, and my miracles, which I haue done among them: that ye may knowe that I am the Lord.
Na ɛnam so ma woatumi aka anwanwadeɛ a mayɛ wɔ Misraim asase so no akyerɛ wo mma ne wo mmanananom. Ka sɛdeɛ memaa Misraimfoɔ no yɛɛ wɔn adeɛ sɛ nkwaseafoɔ wɔ mʼanim no ne sɛdeɛ mema wɔhunuu sɛ mene Awurade no kyerɛ wɔn.”
3 Then came Moses and Aaron vnto Pharaoh, and they said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Ebrewes, Howe long wilt thou refuse to humble thy selfe before me? Let my people goe, that they may serue me.
Enti, Mose ne Aaron kɔhunuu Farao ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Awurade a ɔyɛ Hebrifoɔ Onyankopɔn se memmisa wo sɛ, ‘Nna dodoɔ sɛn na wopɛ sɛ wode bu me animtia? Ma me nkurɔfoɔ nkɔ na wɔnkɔsom me.
4 But if thou refuse to let my people go, beholde, to morowe will I bring grashoppers into thy coastes.
Na sɛ woamma wɔn ankɔ a, ɔkyena nko ara mɛma ntutummɛ aba wʼasase yi so.
5 And they shall couer the face of the earth, that a man can not see the earth: and they shall eate the residue which remaineth vnto you, and hath escaped from the haile: and they shall eate all your trees that bud in the fielde.
Wɔbɛkata asase no ani nyinaa. Na wɔbɛsɛe biribiara a ɛkaeɛ a asukɔtweaa a ɛtɔeɛ no ansɛe no no nyinaa a wiram nnua nyinaa ka ho.
6 And they shall fil thine houses, and all thy seruants houses, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers fathers haue seene, since the time they were vpon the earth vnto this day. So he returned, and went out from Pharaoh.
Mmoa no bɛhyɛ wʼahemfie hɔ, wo mpanimfoɔ afie mu ne Misraimfoɔ afie nyinaa ma tɔ. Ɛbɛyɛ ɔhaw a, ɛfiri ɛberɛ a mo agyanom bɛtenaa asase yi so de bɛsi ɛnnɛ no, ebi nsii saa da.’” Na Mose firii Farao anim kɔeɛ.
7 Then Pharaohs seruants saide vnto him, How long shall he be an offence vnto vs? let the men go, that they may serue the Lord their God: wilt thou first knowe that Egypt is destroyed?
Afei, mpanimfoɔ a wɔwɔ Farao asɛnniiɛ no bɛbisaa no sɛ, “Nkɔsi da bɛn na wobɛma saa ɔbarima yi afa yɛn nnommum? Wonhunuu sɛ Misraim nyinaa adane amamfo? Ma nnipa no ɛkwan na wɔnkɔ nkɔsom Awurade wɔn Onyankopɔn!”
8 So Moses and Aaron were brought againe vnto Pharaoh, and he saide vnto them, Goe, serue the Lord your God, but who are they that shall goe?
Enti, wɔsane de Mose ne Aaron baa Farao anim bio bɛbisaa Farao ɛkwan. Farao kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, monkɔsom Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn no. Na ɛhefoɔ na mo ne wɔn bɛkɔ?”
9 And Moses answered, We will go with our yong and with our olde, with our sonnes and with our daughters, with our sheepe and with our cattell will we goe: for we must celebrate a feast vnto the Lord.
Mose buaa Farao sɛ, “Yɛde mmɔfra ne mpanin, yɛn mmammarima, yɛn mmammaa, yɛn nnwan ne yɛn anantwie na ɛbɛkɔ. Yɛde yɛn agyapadeɛ nyinaa na ɛbɛtu saa ɛkwan no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn nyinaa kɔ Awurade afahyɛ no.”
10 And he said vnto them, Let the Lord so be with you, as I will let you goe and your children: beholde, for euill is before your face.
Farao de abufuo buaa sɛ, “Sɛ mɛma mode mmɔfra nketewa yi kɔ a, ɛnneɛ Awurade ankasa nka mo ho. Mahunu sɛ mowɔ adwemmɔne.
11 It shall not be so: nowe goe ye that are men, and serue the Lord: for that was your desire. Then they were thrust out from Pharaohs presence.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛba saa. Mo mmarima no, monkɔsom Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛno na mobisaa me.” Farao pamoo wɔn firii nʼahemfie hɔ.
12 After, the Lord said vnto Moses, Stretch out thine hande vpon the lande of Egypt for the grashoppers, that they may come vpon the lande of Egypt, and eate all the herbes of the land, euen all that the haile hath left.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Tene wo nsa wɔ Misraim so na ntutummɛ mmɛkata asase no nyinaa so, na wɔnni biribiara a asukɔtweaa no ansɛe no no.”
13 Then Moses stretched foorth his rod vpon the lande of Egypt: and the Lord brought an East winde vpon the land all that day, and al that night: and in the morning the East wind brought the grashoppers.
Enti Mose maa ne poma so kyerɛɛ Misraim asase so maa Awurade bɔɔ mframa bi firii apueeɛ fam awia ne anadwo. Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, na apueeɛ mframa no de ntutummɛ no abɛgu asase no so nyinaa.
14 So the grashoppers went vp vpon all the land of Egypt, and remained in all quarters of Egypt: so grieuous Grashoppers, like to these were neuer before, neither after them shalbe such.
Ntutummɛ no kataa Misraim asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Misraim abakɔsɛm kyerɛ sɛ, ntutummɛ mmaa ɔman no mu saa da na ebi nso remma saa bio.
15 For they couered all the face of the earth, so that the lande was darke: and they did eate all the herbes of the lande, and all the fruites of the trees, which the haile had left, so that there was no greene thing left vpon the trees, nor among the herbes of the fielde throughout all the lande of Egypt.
Mmoa no kataa asase ani nyinaa ma wɔsii owia ani enti wɔmaa esum duruu asase no so. Wɔwee biribiara a asukɔtweaa no ansɛe no no; biribiara a ɛyɛ ahahammono anka; sɛ ɛyɛ dua anaa afifideɛ a ɛwɔ ɔman no mu baabiara no.
16 Therefore Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and sayde, I haue sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
Ntɛm pa ara Farao tuu abɔfoɔ kɔfrɛɛ Mose ne Aaron ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mayɛ bɔne atia Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn no, ne mo nyinaa.
17 And nowe forgiue mee my sinne onely this once, and pray vnto the Lord your God, that hee may take away from me this death onely.
Me nkotosrɛ a ɛdi akyire nie; momfa saa bɔne no nkyɛ me na monsrɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn sɛ ɔnyi owuo yi mfiri yɛn so.”
18 Moses then went out from Pharaoh, and prayed vnto the Lord.
Enti, Mose firii Farao anim kɔsrɛɛ Awurade.
19 And the Lord turned a mightie strong West winde, and tooke away the grashoppers, and violently cast them into the red Sea, so that there remained not one grashopper in all the coast of Egypt.
Awurade bɔɔ atɔeɛ fam mframa denden bi ma ɛpiaa ntutummɛ no nyinaa kɔguu Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no mu, a anka ɔbaako pɛ koraa wɔ Misraim asase no so.
20 But the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and hee did not let the children of Israel goe.
Nanso, Awurade pirim Farao akoma enti wamma Israelfoɔ no ankɔ.
21 Againe ye Lord said vnto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heauen, that there may be vpon the lande of Egypt darkenesse, euen darkenesse that may be felt.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Tene wo nsa kyerɛ ɔsoro ma esum kabii mmɛduru Misraim asase so.”
22 Then Moses stretched forth his hande towarde heauen, and there was a blacke darkenesse in all the land of Egypt three daies.
Enti, Mose tenee ne nsa hwɛɛ soro maa esum kabii bɛduruu Misraim asase no so nnansa.
23 No man saw an other, neither rose vp from ye place where he was for three dayes: but all the children of Israel had light where they dwelt.
Esum no duruu saa no, na obiara ntumi ntu ne nan, nanso Israelfoɔ no deɛ, na deɛ wɔte hɔ yɛ hann.
24 The Pharaoh called for Moses and said, Go, serue the Lord: onely your sheepe and your cattel shall abide, and your children shall go with you.
Farao frɛɛ Mose ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔsom Awurade. Wobɛtumi de wo mma aka wo ho akɔ; nanso wo nnwan ne wʼanantwie no deɛ, ma wɔnka ha.”
25 And Moses sayd, Thou must giue vs also sacrifices, and burnt offrings that wee may doe sacrifice vnto the Lord our God.
Nanso, Mose buaa sɛ, “Dabi, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nnwan ne yɛn anantwie kɔ na yɛde wɔn mu bi bɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn.
26 Therefore our cattell also shall go with vs: there shall not an hoofe bee left, for thereof must we take to serue the Lord our God: neither doe wee knowe howe we shall serue the Lord, vntill we come thither.
Aboa tɔte koraa yɛrennya wɔ ha; ɛsɛ sɛ yɛbɔ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn no afɔdeɛ. Yɛnnim deɛ ɔbɛpɛ gye sɛ yɛduru hɔ.”
27 (But the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and he would not let them goe)
Nanso, Awurade pirim Farao akoma enti wamma wɔn ankɔ.
28 And Pharaoh sayde vnto him, Get thee from mee: looke thou see my face no more: for whensoeuer thou commest in my sight, thou shalt dye.
Farao teateaa Mose sɛ, “Firi ha kɔ ntɛm. Mma menhunu wo ha bio. Ɛda a wobɛba ha bio no, wobɛwu.”
29 Then Moses said, Thou hast said well: from henceforth will I see thy face no more.
Mose buaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, merenhunu wo bio.”
