Exodus 4
1 And he answered Moses and he said and here! not they will believe me and not they will listen to voice my for they will say not he appeared to you Yahweh.
Na Mose buaa no sɛ, “Wɔrennye me nni. Asɛm a mɛka no, wɔrenni so. Wɔbɛka sɛ, ‘Awurade nyii ne ho adi nkyerɛɛ wo!’”
2 And he said to him Yahweh (what [is] this? *Q(K)*) [is] in hand your and he said a staff.
Awurade bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wokura yi?” Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Odwanhwɛfoɔ poma.”
3 And he said throw it [the] ground towards and he threw it [the] ground towards and it became a snake and he fled Moses from before it.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “To twene fam.” Enti ɔto twenee fam ma ɛdanee ɔwɔ. Mose dwane firii aboa no ho.
4 And he said Yahweh to Moses stretch out hand your and hold on tail its and he stretched out hand his and he took hold on it and it became a staff in hand his.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Sɔ ɔwɔ no dua mu kyere no!” Ɔsɔɔ ne dua mu kyeree no no, ɛsane danee poma no bio.
5 So that they may believe that he appeared to you Yahweh [the] God ancestors their [the] God of Abraham [the] God of Isaac and [the] God of Jacob.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔyɛ saa na wɔbɛgye wo adi. Ɛbɛma wɔahunu sɛ wo agyanom Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Onyankopɔn ada ne ho adi akyerɛ wo ampa.
6 And he said Yahweh to him again put please hand your in bosom your and he put hand his in bosom his and he brought out it and there! hand his [was] leprous like snow.
“Afei, fa wo nsa hyɛ wo bo.” Ɔde ne nsa hyɛɛ ne bo na ɔyiiɛ no, na kwata ayɛ ne nsa ho fitaa.
7 And he said return hand your into bosom your and he returned hand his into bosom his and he brought out it from bosom his and there! it had turned back like flesh his.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no bio sɛ, “Fa wo nsa hyɛ wo bo bio.” Ɔde ne nsa hyɛɛ ne bo bio na ɔyiiɛ no, na kwata no agyae ama ne nsa no ho ayɛ sɛdeɛ ɛte kane no.
8 And it will be if not they will believe you and not they will listen to [the] voice of the sign former and they will believe [the] voice of the sign latter.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ wɔannye anwanwadeɛ a ɛdi ɛkan no anni a, wɔbɛgye deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu no adi.
9 And it will be if not they will believe also [the] two the signs these and not they will listen! to voice your and you will take some of [the] water of the River and you will pour [it] out the dry ground and they will become the waters which you will take from the River and they will become blood on the dry ground.
Na sɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ mmienu yi akyiri wɔannye wo anni a, kɔsa nsuo firi Asubɔnten Nil mu na bɛhwie gu asase wesee bi so na ɛbɛdane mogya.”
10 And he said Moses to Yahweh pardon me O Lord not [am] a man of words I neither from yesterday nor from three days ago nor from then speaking you to servant your for [am] heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue I.
Nanso, Mose srɛɛ sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, mennim kasa. Ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ anaa ɛfiri ɛberɛ a wo ne me kasaeɛ mpo no, mʼano nte.”
11 And he said Yahweh to him who? did he make a mouth of person or who? does he make dumb or deaf or seeing or blind ¿ not [do] I Yahweh.
Awurade bisaa no sɛ, “Hwan na ɔyɛɛ onipa ano? Ɛnyɛ me Awurade na meyɛeɛ? Hwan na ɔbɔ onipa ma ɔtumi kasa anaa ɔmma no nkasa? Hwan na ɔma no hunu adeɛ anaa ɔmma no nhunu adeɛ? Hwan na ɔma no tumi te asɛm anaa ɔmma no nte asɛm?
12 And therefore go and I I will be with mouth your and I will teach you [that] which you will say.
Afei, kɔ na kɔyɛ deɛ maka akyerɛ wo no na mɛboa wo ama woatumi akasa yie, na mɛkyerɛ wo deɛ wobɛka nso.”
13 And he said pardon me O Lord send please by [the] hand of [whoever] you will send.
Nanso Mose kaa sɛ, “Awurade mesrɛ wo, soma onipa foforɔ.”
14 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Moses and he said ¿ not [is] Aaron brother your the Levite I know that well he speaks he and also there! he [is] coming out to meet you and he will see you and he will be glad in heart his.
Awurade bo fuiɛ enti ɔkaa sɛ, “Na wo nua Aaron, Lewini no nso ɛ? Menim sɛ nʼano ate. Na hwɛ ɔno na ɔrebɛhyia wo no, na sɛ ɔhunu wo a, nʼani bɛgye.
15 And you will speak to him and you will put the words in mouth his and I I will be with mouth your and with mouth his and I will teach you [that] which you will do!
Wobɛkasa akyerɛ no na woaka deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɔka akyerɛ no. Mɛboa mo baanu ama moakasa, na makyerɛ mo deɛ mobɛyɛ.
16 And he will speak he for you to the people and it will be he he will become of you a mouth and you you will become of him a god.
Ɔbɛyɛ wo ɔkyeame ɔman no anim, na wo nso woayɛ sɛ ne Onyankopɔn aka asɛm a wopɛ sɛ ɛda edwa akyerɛ no.
17 And the staff this you will take in hand your which you will do with it the signs.
Sɛ worekɔ a, fa wo poma no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wobɛtumi de ayɛ anwanwadeɛ a makyerɛ wo no.”
18 And he went Moses and he returned - to Jethro father-in-law his and he said to him let me go please so I may return to relatives my who [are] in Egypt so I may see ¿ [are] still they living and he said Jethro to Moses go to peace.
Mose kɔɔ efie kɔbɔɔ nʼase Yetro nsɛm a asie no ho amanneɛ. “Mɛsrɛ wo ɛkwan na makɔ Misraim makɔsra mʼabusuafoɔ. Mennim mpo sɛ, wɔte ase.” Yetro penee so sɛ, “Kɔ. Mehyira wo kosɛkosɛ.”
19 And he said Yahweh to Moses in Midian go return Egypt for they have died all the men who sought life your.
Ansa na Mose rebɛfiri Midian no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Nsuro sɛ wobɛsane akɔ Misraim, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn a na wɔrehwehwɛ wo akum wo no nyinaa awuwu.”
20 And he took Moses wife his and sons his and he made ride them on the donkey and he returned [the] land of towards Egypt and he took Moses [the] staff of God in hand his.
Enti, Mose faa ne yere ne ne mma de wɔn tenatenaa mfunumu so sɛ ɔrekɔ Misraim a na Onyankopɔn poma no hyɛ ne nsam.
21 And he said Yahweh to Moses when going you to return Egypt towards see all the wonders which I have put in hand your and you will do them before Pharaoh and I I will make strong heart his and not he will let go the people.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Sɛ woduru Misraim a, kɔ Farao hɔ na kɔyɛ anwanwadeɛ a makyerɛ wo yi kyerɛ no, nanso mɛma nʼaso ayɛ den, enti ɔremma nnipa no nkɔ.
22 And you will say to Pharaoh thus he says Yahweh [is] son my firstborn my Israel.
Na sɛ ɛba no saa a, ka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Awurade se, Israel yɛ mʼabakan
23 And I said to you let go son my so he may serve me and you refused to let go him here! I [am] about to kill son your firstborn your.
na mahyɛ wo sɛ, “Ma no ɛkwan na ɔnkɔ na ɔnkɔsom me.” Nanso woampene enti mɛkum wʼabakan.’”
24 And it was on the journey at the lodging place and he met him Yahweh and he sought to kill him.
Mose ne nʼabusuafoɔ nam no, adeɛ saa wɔn ma wɔpɛɛ baabi daeɛ. Awurade daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Mose na ɔhunahunaa no sɛ ɔbɛkum no.
25 And she took Zipporah a flint and she cut off [the] foreskin of son her and she made [it] touch feet his and she said that [are] a bridegroom of blood you to me.
Enti, ne yere Sipora faa sekammoa de twaa ne babarima kumaa twetia to twenee Mose nan ase kaa sɛ, “Mmogya ayeforɔkunu ne wo.”
26 And he withdrew from him then she said a bridegroom of blood to the circumcision.
Enti Awurade gyaa Mose. Na Sipora kaa sɛ, “Woyɛ okunu a twetiatwa ama mogya aka wo.”
27 And he said Yahweh to Aaron go to meet Moses the wilderness towards and he went and he met him at [the] mountain of God and he kissed him.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ, “Kɔ ɛserɛ no so kɔhyia Mose.” Enti, Aaron kɔɔ Onyankopɔn Bepɔ Horeb so kɔhyiaa Mose wɔ hɔ. Wɔhyiaeɛ no, wɔde mfeano kyeakyeaa wɔn ho fɛw so.
28 And he told Moses to Aaron all [the] words of Yahweh which he had sent him and all the signs which he had commanded him.
Mose kaa nsɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no ɛberɛ a ɔresoma no no ne anwanwadeɛ a ɔhyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ nyinaa kyerɛɛ Aaron.
29 And he went Moses and Aaron and they gathered all [the] elders of [the] people of Israel.
Enti, Mose ne Aaron sane kɔɔ Misraim frɛɛ Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ nyinaa ne wɔn yɛɛ nhyiamu.
30 And he spoke Aaron all the words which he had spoken Yahweh to Moses and he did the signs to [the] eyes of the people.
Aaron kaa nsɛm a Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose no nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn enti, Mose yɛɛ anwanwadeɛ no ma wɔhwɛeɛ.
31 And it believed the people and they heard that he had observed Yahweh [the] people of Israel and that he had seen affliction their and they bowed low and they bowed down.
Yei maa mpanimfoɔ no gye dii sɛ, ampa, Awurade na wasoma wɔn. Afei, wɔtee sɛ Awurade akɔsra wɔn, na ɛnam so ama wahunu wɔn haw, na enti wayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛgye wɔn afiri saa ɔhaw no mu no, wɔde anigyeɛ buu nkotodwe sɔreeɛ.
