Exodus 10
1 The LORD said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in the midst of them,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “San kɔ Farao nkyɛn efisɛ mapirim ɔne ne mpanyimfo nyinaa koma sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a metumi ayɛ me nsɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi wɔ wɔn mu
2 and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son's son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am the LORD."
na ɛnam so ama woatumi aka anwonwade a mayɛ wɔ Misraim asase so no akyerɛ wo mma ne wo nenanom, sɛnea me ne Misraimfo no dii no nwenweenwen ne sɛnea meyɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne ahorow wɔ wɔn mu no, na ama woahu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
3 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, "This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
Enti Mose ne Aaron kohuu Farao ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade a ɔyɛ Hebrifo Nyankopɔn no se mimmisa wo se, ‘Enkosi da bɛn na wubebu me animtiaa? Ma me nkurɔfo nkɔ na wɔnkɔsom me.
4 Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, look, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
Sɛ woamma wɔn ankɔ a, ɔkyena nko ara mɛma mmoadabi aba wo man yi mu.
5 and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won't be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
Wɔbɛkata asase no ani nyinaa. Na wɔbɛwe biribiara a ɛkae a mparuwbo a ɛtɔe no ansɛe no no nyinaa a wuram nnua nyinaa ka ho.
6 Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither your fathers nor your fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.'" He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
Mmoa no bɛhyɛ wʼahemfi hɔ, wo mpanyimfo afi mu ne Misraimfo afi nyinaa ma tɔ. Ɛbɛyɛ ɔhaw a, efi bere a mo agyanom bɛtenaa asase yi so de besi nnɛ no, bi nsii saa da.’” Na Mose fii Farao anim kɔe.
7 Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve their God. Do you not yet know that Egypt is destroyed?"
Farao mpanyimfo bisaa no se, “Enkosi da bɛn na saa ɔbarima yi bɛyɛ yɛn konnua? Wunhuu sɛ Misraim nyinaa adan amamfo? Ma nnipa no kwan na wɔnkɔ nkɔsom Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn no!”
8 Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve your God; but who are those who will go?"
Enti wɔsan de Mose ne Aaron baa Farao anim. Farao kae se, “Eye, monkɔsom Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no. Na ɛhefo na mo ne wɔn bɛkɔ?”
9 Moses said, "We will go with our young and with our old; with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast to the LORD."
Mose buaa Farao se, “Yɛde mmofra ne mpanyin, yɛn mmabarima, yɛn mmabea, yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi na ɛbɛkɔ. Yɛde yɛn agyapade nyinaa na ebetu saa kwan no, efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn nyinaa kɔ Awurade afahyɛ no.”
10 He said to them, "The LORD be with you if I will let you go with your dependents. See, evil is clearly before your faces.
Farao de abufuw buae se, “Sɛ mɛma mode mmofra nketewa yi akɔ a, ɛno de, Awurade ankasa nka mo ho. Mahu sɛ mowɔ adwemmɔne.
11 Not so. Go now you who are men, and serve God; for that is what you desire." They were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛba saa. Mo mmarima no, monkɔsom Awurade, efisɛ ɛno na mobisaa me.” Farao pam wɔn fii nʼahemfi hɔ.
12 The LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt and eat every plant of the land, even all that the hail has left."
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa wɔ Misraim so na mmoadabi mmɛkata asase no nyinaa so, na wonni biribiara a mparuwbo no ansɛe no no.”
13 Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
Enti Mose maa ne pema so kyerɛɛ Misraim asase so maa Awurade bɔɔ mframa bi fii apuei fam awia ne anadwo. Ade kyee no, na apuei mframa no de mmoadabi no abegu asase no so nyinaa.
14 The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
Mmoadabi no kataa Misraim asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Misraim abakɔsɛm kyerɛ se, mmoadabi mmaa ɔman no mu saa da na bi nso remma saa bio.
15 For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was destroyed, and they ate every plant of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or plant of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
Mmoa no kataa asase ani nyinaa ma wosiw owia ani enti wɔmaa sum duruu asase no so. Wɔwee biribiara a mparuwbo no ansɛe no no; biribiara a ɛyɛ ahabammono anka; sɛ ɛyɛ dua anaa afifide a ɛwɔ ɔman no mu baabiara no.
16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
Ntɛm pa ara Farao tuu abɔfo kɔfrɛɛ Mose ne Aaron ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mayɛ bɔne atia Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, ne mo nyinaa.
17 Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to the LORD your God, that he may also take away from me this death."
Afei, momfa me bɔne nkyɛ me bio na monsrɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, sɛ onyi owu yi mfi yɛn so.”
18 He went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to God.
Enti Mose fii Farao anim kɔsrɛɛ Awurade.
19 The LORD turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
Awurade bɔɔ atɔe fam mframa dennen bi ma epiaa mmoadabi no nyinaa koguu Po Kɔkɔɔ no mu, a anka ɔbaako pɛ koraa wɔ Misraim asase no so.
20 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
Nanso Awurade pirim Farao koma nti wamma Israelfo no ankɔ.
21 The LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt."
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa kyerɛ soro mma sum kabii mmeduru Misraim asase so.”
22 Moses stretched forth his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.
Enti Mose teɛɛ ne nsa hwɛɛ soro maa sum kabii beduruu Misraim asase no so nnansa.
23 They did not see one another, neither did anyone rise from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Sum no duruu saa no, na obiara nhu hwee na wontumi ntu wɔn anan nso nnansa. Nanso Israelfo no de, na nea wɔte hɔ yɛ hann.
24 Then Pharaoh called to Moses and to Aaron and said, "Go, serve the LORD. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your dependents also go with you."
Farao frɛɛ Mose ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kɔ na kɔsom Awurade. Wubetumi de wo mma aka wo ho akɔ; nanso wo nguan ne wʼanantwi no de, ma wɔnka ha.”
25 Moses said, "You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
Nanso Mose buae se, “Dabi, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi kɔ na yɛde wɔn mu bi bɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn.
26 Our livestock must also go with us; not a hoof is left behind, for of it we must take to serve the LORD our God; and we do not know with what we must serve the LORD, until we come there."
Aboa tɔte koraa yɛrennyaw wɔ ha; ɛsɛ sɛ yɛbɔ Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn no afɔre. Yennim nea ɔbɛpɛ gye sɛ yedu hɔ.”
27 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he wouldn't let them go.
Nanso Awurade pirim Farao koma nti wamma wɔn ankɔ.
28 Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me. Make sure you never see my face again; for in the day you see my face you shall die."
Farao teɛteɛɛ Mose se, “Fi mʼani so kɔ! Mɛhwɛ sɛ woremma mʼanim bio! Da a wubehu mʼanim no, wubewu.”
29 Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will not see your face again."
Mose buae se, “Meremma wʼanim bio sɛnea woreka no pɛpɛɛpɛ.”
