< Chronicles I 5 >

1 And the sons of Ruben the firstborn of Israel (for he [was] the firstborn; but because of his going up to his father's couch, [his father] gave his blessing to his son Joseph, [even] the son of Israel; and he was not reckoned as firstborn;
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 for Judas [was] very mighty even among his brethren, and one was to be a ruler out of him: but the blessing [was] Joseph's).
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 Ruben the firstborn of Israel; Enoch, and Phallus, Asrom, and Charmi.
Israel abakan Ruben no mmabarima ne: Hanok, Palu, Hesron ne Karmi.
4 The sons of Joel; Semei, and Banaia his son: and the sons of Gug the son of Semei.
Yoel asefo ne Semaia, Gog, Simei,
5 His son [was] Micha, his son Recha, his son Joel,
Mika, Reaia, Baal,
6 his son Beel, whom Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria carried away captive: he [is] the chief of the Rubenites.
ne Beera. Bere a Asiriahene Tilgat-Pilneser de Rubenfo kɔɔ nnommumfa mu no, Beera na na odi Rubenfo no anim.
7 And his brethren in his family, in their distribution according to their generations; the chief, Joel, and Zacharia.
Wɔakyerɛw Beera nkurɔfo din sɛnea wɔn mmusua ne abusua no te: Yeiel ne wɔn ntuanoni, na Sakaria
8 And Balec the son of Azuz, the son of Sama, the son of Joel: he lived in Aroer, and even to Naban, and Beelmasson.
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 And he lived eastward to the borders of the wilderness, from the river Euphrates: for they had much cattle in the land of Galaad.
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 And in the days of Saul they made war upon the sojourners [in the land]; and they fell into their hands, all of them dwelling in their tents eastward of Galaad.
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 sons of Gad lived over against them in the land of Basan even to Sela.
Basan asase so no, na Gad asefo na wɔtete asase a edi Rubenfo de no so. Wɔtrɛw kɔɔ apuei fam kosii Saleka.
12 Joel the firstborn, and Sapham the second, and Janin the scribe in Basan.
Na Yoel na otua wɔn ano wɔ Basan asase so. Na Safam, Yanai ne Safat yɛ nʼaboafo.
13 And their brethren according to the houses of their fathers; Michael, Mosollam, and Sebee, and Joree, and Joachan, and Zue, and Obed, seven.
Na wɔn abusuafo a wɔyɛ ntuanofo ma mmusua afoforo ason din ne: Mikael, Mesulam, Seba, Yorai, Yakan, Sia ne Eber.
14 These [are] the sons of Abichaia the son of Uri, the son of Idai, the son of Galaad, the son of Michael, the son of Jesai, the son of Jeddai, 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 [who was] the brother of the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, [he was] chief of the house of their families.
Abdiel babarima Ahi, Guni babarima no na na ɔyɛ wɔn mmusua no ntuano.
16 They lived in Galaad, in Basan, and in their villages, and [in] all the country round about Saron to the border.
Gadfo no tenaa Gilead asase a ɛwɔ Basan ne ne nkuraa ne Saron tataw no nyinaa so.
17 The enumeration of [them] all took place in the days of Joatham king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
Yudahene Yotam ne Israelhene Yeroboam bere so na wɔkyerɛw eyinom nyinaa guu abusuadua nkrataa mu.
18 The sons of Ruben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasse, of mighty men, bearing shields and sword, and bending the bow, and skilled in war, [were] forty and four thousand and seven hundred and sixty, going forth to 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 And they made war with the Agarenes, and Itureans, and Naphiseans, and Nadabeans,
Wɔko tiaa Hagarfo, Yeturfo, Nafisfo ne Nodabfo.
20 and they prevailed against them: and the Agaraeans were given into their hands, [they] and all their tents: for they cried to God in the battle, and he listened to them, because they trusted on him.
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 And they took captive their store; five thousand camels, and two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, two thousand asses, and a hundred thousand men.
Asade a wɔfa fii Hagarfo no nkyɛn no yɛ yoma mpem aduonum, nguan mpem ahannu aduonum, mfurum mpenu ne nneduafo mpem ɔha.
22 For many fell slain, because the war [was] of God. And they lived in their place until the captivity.
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 And the half-tribe of Manasse lived from Basan to Baal, Ermon, and Sanir, and [to] the mount Aermon: and they increased in Libanus.
Manase abusua fa no trɛw wɔ asase no so fi Basan kosii Baal-Hermon, Senir ne bepɔw Hermon ho. Na wɔdɔɔso yiye.
24 And these were the heads of the houses of their families; Opher, and Sei, and Eliel, and Jeremia, and Oduia, and Jediel, mighty men of valour, men of renown, heads of the houses 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 rebelled against the God of their fathers, and went a-whoring after the gods of the nations of the land, whom God cast out from before them.
Nanso na wonni nokware, na wobuu wɔn agyanom ne Onyankopɔn apam no so. Wɔsom aman a Onyankopɔn sɛee wɔn no anyame.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Phaloch king of Assyria, and the spirit of Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria, and carried away Ruben and Gaddi, and the half-tribe of Manasse, and brought them to Chaach, and Chabor, and to the river Gozan, until 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.
