< Exodus 16 >
1 Afterward all the Congregation of the children of Israel departed from Elim, and came to the wildernes of Sin, (which is betweene Elim and Sinai) the fiftenth day of the second moneth after their departing out of ye land of Egypt.
Azɔ la, Israel ƒe ha blibo la dzo le Elim, eye woyi Sin, gbegbe si le Elim kple Sinai to la dome. Woɖo afi ma le ɣleti evelia ƒe ŋkeke wuiatɔ̃lia dzi le woƒe dzodzo le Egipte megbe.
2 And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wildernesse.
Le afi sia hã la, dukɔ la katã galĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le Mose kple Aron ŋuti vevie.
3 For the children of Israel sayde to them, Oh that we had dyed by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when wee sate by the flesh pots, when wee ate bread our bellies full: for yee haue brought vs out into this wildernesse, to kill this whole company with famine.
Israelviwo gblɔ na wo be, “Ɖe wòanyo ŋutɔ ne míaku ɖe Yehowa ƒe asi me le Egipte! Le teƒe ma la, míenɔa anyi ƒoa xlã lã siwo míeɖa la ƒe zewo, eye míeɖua nu si míedi la, gake miekplɔ mí va gbegbe afi sia be dɔ nawu mí míaku.”
4 Then sayd the Lord vnto Moses, Behold, I wil cause bread to rayne from heauen to you, and the people shall goe out, and gather that that is sufficient for euery day, that I may proue them, whether they wil walke in my Law or no.
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Kpɔ ɖa, mana abolo nadza tso dziƒo na wo. Ame sia ame ate ŋu ado go gbe sia gbe, eye wòafɔ nuɖuɖu si wòhiã. Mado wo kpɔ le nu sia me akpɔ be woawɔ ɖe nye ɖoɖowo dzi mahã.
5 But the sixt daye they shall prepare that, which they shall bring home, and it shalbe twise as much as they gather dayly.
Gblɔ na wo be, woafɔ nuɖuɖu si wofɔna gbe sia gbe la ƒe teƒe eve le kɔsiɖa ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ŋkeke adelia dzi.”
6 Then Moses and Aaron sayde vnto all the children of Israel, At euen ye shall know, that the Lord brought you out of the land of Egypt:
Mose kple Aron wowɔ takpekpe kple Israelviwo katã. Wogblɔ na wo be, “Egbe fiẽ la, miadze sii be Yehowae kplɔ mi tso Egiptenyigba dzi.
7 And in the morning ye shall see the glorie of the Lord: for he hath heard your grudgings against the Lord: and what are we that ye haue murmured against vs?
Le ŋdi la, miakpɔ eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe geɖe wu, elabena ese miaƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ le eya, Yehowa ŋu, elabena menye míawo ŋue mielĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le o. Ame kawo míenye?”
8 Againe Moses sayd, At euen shall the Lord giue you flesh to eate, and in the morning your fil of bread: for the Lord hath heard your murmurings, which ye murmure against him: for what are we? your murmurings are not against vs, but against the Lord.
Mose gblɔ hã be mianya be, “Yehowae na lã mi le fiẽ me, eye wòna abolo si miehiã la mi le ŋdi me, elabena ese miaƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩwo le eŋuti. Ame kawoe mienye? Menye míawo ŋu miele liʋĩliʋĩ lĩm le o, ke boŋ Yehowa ŋue.”
9 And Moses sayd to Aaron, Say vnto all the Congregation of the children of Israel, Draw neere before the Lord: for he hath heard your murmurings.
Ale Mose gblɔ na Aron be, “Gblɔ na Israelviwo katã be, ‘Miva Yehowa ŋkume, elabena ese miaƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ.’”
10 Now as Aaron spake vnto the whole Congregation of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wildernesse, and beholde, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloude.
Esi Aron nɔ nu ƒom na Israelviwo ƒe ha bliboa la, wonye kɔ kpɔ gbegbe lɔƒo, eye le afi ma wokpɔ Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe wònɔ keklẽm le aliliwo me.
11 (For the Lord had spoken vnto Moses, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
12 I haue heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: tell them therefore, and say, At euen ye shall eate flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord your God)
“Mese woƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ. Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Le fiẽ sia la, lã aka mia si; le ŋdi la, miaxɔ abolo, eye mianya be nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu.’”
13 And so at euen the quailes came and couered the campe: and in the morning the dewe lay round about the hoste.
Gbe ma gbe fiẽ la, tegliwo ƒe ha gã aɖe va do, eye woxe asaɖa la tame. Le ŋdi la, afu do ƒo xlã asaɖa la,
14 And when the dewe that was fallen was ascended, beholde, a small round thing was vpon the face of the wildernes, small as the hoare frost on the earth.
eye esi xexeme kɔ ŋdi la, nu ɣi nogonogoewo nɔ anyigba abe kpetsi ene.
15 And when the children of Israel sawe it, they sayde one to another, It is MAN, for they wist not what it was. And Moses sayd vnto them, This is the breade which the Lord hath giuen you to eate.
Esi Israelviwo kpɔ wo la, wobia wo nɔewo be, “Nu kawoe nye esiawo?” Elabena womenya nu si wonye o. Mose gblɔ na wo be, “Esiawoe nye abolo si Yehowa na mi be miaɖu.
16 This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded: gather of it euery man according to his eating an Omer for a man according to the number of your persons: euery man shall take for them which are in his tent.
Yehowa gblɔ be, ame sia ame nafɔ agbɔsɔsɔ si ade eƒe aƒemetɔwo nu abe lita eve ƒe dzidzeme ene ɖe aƒea me tɔ ɖe sia ɖe nu.”
17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some lesse.
Ale Israelviwo yi ɖafɔ wo abe ale si Mose gblɔ na wo ene; ame aɖewo fɔe fũu, ke ame aɖewo hã mefɔe fũu o.
18 And when they did measure it with an Omer, hee that had gathered much, had nothing ouer, and he that had gathered litle, had no lacke: so euery man gathered according to his eating.
Esi wotrɔ wo ɖe dzidzenu la me la, woyɔ dzidzenu la ɖe ame sia ame nu. Ame si ƒoa ƒu nuwo fũu hã mekpɔa ɖeke ɖe edzi o, ke ame si ƒo ƒu sue aɖe hã la, naneke mehiãnɛ o! Aƒe ɖe sia ɖe me tɔwo kpɔ esi ade wo nu tututu.
19 Moses then said vnto them, Let no man reserue thereof till morning.
Mose gblɔ na wo be, “Migana ŋu nake ɖe wo dzi o.”
20 Notwithstanding they obeyed not Moses: but some of them reserued of it till morning, and it was full of wormes, and stanke: therefore Moses was angrie with them.
Ame aɖewo meɖo to o: wona ŋu ke ɖe wo dzi. Kasia woakpɔ wo ɖa la, wodze nyẽ henɔ ʋeʋẽm kũu. Mose do dɔmedzoe ɖe wo ŋu vevie,
21 And they gathered it euery morning, euery man according to his eating: for when the heate of the sunne came, it was melted.
eya ta azɔ la, wofɔa nuɖuɖu la ŋdi sia ŋdi, eye aƒe sia aƒe fɔa esi wòhiã la ko. Ne ŋdɔ ʋu, eye anyigba xɔ dzo la, abolo la lolõna, eye wòbuna.
22 And the sixt day they gathered twise so much bread, two Omers for one man: then all the rulers of the Congregation came and told Moses.
Le ŋkeke adelia dzi la, wofɔa agbɔsɔsɔ si wofɔna gbe sia gbe la ƒe teƒe eve. Wofɔa lita ene ɖe ame sia ame nu, ɖe lita eve teƒe. Kplɔlawo bia Mose be nu ka ta wòde se ma na yewo mahã.
23 And he answered them, This is that, which the Lord hath sayde, To morowe is the rest of the holy Sabbath vnto the Lord: bake that to day which ye wil bake, and seethe that which ye wil seethe, and all that remaineth, lay it vp to be kept till the morning for you.
Mose gblɔ na wo be, “Yehowa tɔ asi etsɔ dzi be wòanye dzudzɔgbe, wòanye ŋkeke kɔkɔe na Yehowa, eye wòle be míadzudzɔ tso míaƒe gbe sia gbe dɔwo wɔwɔ me, eya ta miɖa nu wòasɔ gbɔ abe ale si miedi ene egbe, eye midzra esi asusɔ la ɖo ŋu nake ɖe edzi.”
24 And they laied it vp till the morning, as Moses bade, and it stanke not, neyther was there any worme therein.
Esi ŋu ke la, nuɖuɖu la nɔ nyuie: megadze nye o eye megaʋẽ hã o, abe ale si Mose gblɔe na wo ene.
25 Then Moses sayde, Eate that to day: for to day is the Sabbath vnto the Lord: to day ye shall not finde it in the fielde.
Mose gblɔ be, “Esiae nye miaƒe egbe ƒe nuɖuɖu, elabena egbee nye dzudzɔgbe na Yehowa, eye nuɖuɖu aɖeke maganɔ anyigba miafɔ egbe o.
26 Sixe dayes shall yee gather it, but in the seuenth day is the Sabbath: in it there shalbe none.
Mifɔ nuɖuɖu la ŋkeke ade, ŋkeke adrelia nye Dzudzɔgbe. Nuɖuɖu aɖeke manɔ anyigba miafɔ gbe ma gbe o.”
27 Notwithstanding, there went out some of the people in ye seuenth day for to gather, and they found none.
Ke ame aɖewo ya gayi nuɖuɖu la fɔ ge, togbɔ be gbe ma gbee nye ŋkeke adrelia, ke nuɖuɖu aɖeke menɔ anyigba wofɔ o.
28 And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Howe long refuse yee to keepe my commandements, and my lawes?
Yehowa bia Mose be, “Va se ɖe ɣe ka ɣie miagbe toɖoɖo nye sewo kple ɖoɖowo?
29 Beholde, howe the Lord hath giuen you the Sabbath: therefore he giueth you the sixt day bread for two dayes: tary therefore euery man in his place: let no man goe out of his place the seuenth day.
Miɖo ŋku edzi be, Yehowae na Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke la mi; esia tae wòna ŋkeke eve ƒe abolo mi le ŋkeke adelia gbe. Ame sia ame nenɔ afi si wòle le ŋkeke adrelia gbe; ame aɖeke megado go o.”
30 So the people rested the seuenth day.
Ale Israelviwo dzudzɔ wo ɖokuiwo le ŋkeke adrelia gbe.
31 And the house of Israel called the name of it, MAN. and it was like to coriander seede, but white: and the taste of it was like vnto wafers made with hony.
Israelviwo yɔa abolo la be, “mana.” Ele ɣie abe bliku ene, eye wòvivina abe akpɔnɔvivi si me wode anyitsii ene.
32 And Moses said, This is that which the Lord hath commanded, Fill an Omer of it, to keepe it for your posteritie: that they may see the bread wherewith I haue fed you in wildernesse, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.
Mose gblɔ be, “Ale Yehowa de see nye esi, ‘Tsɔ mana lita ɖeka, dzrae ɖo hena dzidzime siwo ava dzɔ, ale be woate ŋu akpɔ abolo si mena mi mieɖu le gbedzi, esi mekplɔ mi do goe le Egipte.’”
33 Moses also said to Aaron, Take a pot and put an Omer full of MAN therein, and set it before the Lord to be kept for your posteritie.
Ale Mose gblɔ na Aron be, “Tsɔ ze aɖe, eye nàdzidze mana lita ɖeka akɔ ɖe eme. Ekema, nàtsɔe ɖo Yehowa ŋkume be woadzrae ɖo hena dzidzime siwo ava dzɔ.”
34 As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laied it vp before the Testimonie to be kept.
Aron wɔ esia abe ale si Yehowa bia tso Mose si ene. Emegbe la, Aron tsɔe da ɖe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ le agbadɔ la me be wòanɔ dedie le afi ma.
35 And the children of Israel did eate MAN fourtie yeres, vntill they came vnto a land inhabited: they did eate MAN vntill they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
Ale Israelviwo ɖu “mana” ƒe blaene va se ɖe esime woɖo Kanaanyigba ƒe liƒo dzi, afi si agblemenukuwo nɔ woaɖu.
36 The Omer is the tenth part of the Ephah.
(Dzidzenu si wotsɔna dzidzea mana la anɔ abe lita eve ene.)
