Numbers 33

1 Here is a list of the places where the/we Israelis went as Aaron and Moses/I led them/us after they/we left Egypt.

Yei ne akwantuo nhyehyɛeɛ a Israelfoɔ dii so ɛberɛ a Mose ne Aaron de wɔn firi Misraim no.

2 Yahweh commanded Moses/me to write down the names of the places where they/we went.

Mose twerɛɛ faako a wɔfaeɛ nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no. Yeinom ne mmea mmea a wɔsoɛɛ wɔ wɔn akwantuo no mu.

3 On the fifteenth day of the first month [of the year], the day after we celebrated the (Passover/the time when Yahweh killed all the firstborn sons of the people of Egypt), they/we left Rameses [city in Egypt] and marched boldly while the Egyptian army was coming behind them/us.

Wɔsiim firii Rameses kuropɔn no mu wɔ Twam Afahyɛ a ɛdi ɛkan no akyi bosome a ɛdi ɛkan ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunum. Wɔde akokoɔduru firii hɔ a Misraimfoɔ no rehwɛ wɔn.

4 As they/we left, the people of Egypt were still burying the bodies of their firstborn sons. [By killing them], Yahweh showed that the gods that the people of Egypt worshiped were false gods.

Saa ɛberɛ no, na Misraimfoɔ no resie wɔn mmakan a Awurade kunkumm wɔn anadwo a adeɛ rebɛkye ama wɔatu ɛkwan no no. Awurade nam atemmuo nnwuma akɛseɛ yi so dii Misraimfoɔ anyame no nyinaa so nkonim.

38 Aaron, the priest, obeyed Yahweh and climbed up the mountain. There he died, on the first day of their/our fifth month, 40 years after the/we Israelis left Egypt.

Ɛberɛ a wɔduruu Bepɔ Hor ase no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron sɛ ɔnkɔ bepɔ no atifi, na ɛhɔ na ɔkɔwuiɛ. Asɛm yi sii mfeɛ aduanan so a Israelfoɔ tu firii Misraim no.

39 Aaron was 123 years old when he died.

Aaron dii mfeɛ ɔha aduonu mmiɛnsa, na ɔwuiɛ wɔ Bepɔ Hor so.

40 (That was when the king of Arad [city] heard that the/we Israelis were coming. Arad was in the southern part of Canaan, where the Canaan people-group lived.)

50 While we were there on the plains of the Moab [region] near the Jordan [River], across from Jericho, Yahweh spoke to Moses/me. He said,

Ɛberɛ a wɔabɔ atenaseɛ hɔ no na Awurade nam Mose so kasa kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ,

51 “Tell this to the Israeli people: When you cross the Jordan [River] and enter the Canaan [region],

“Sɛ motwam Asubɔnten Yordan kɔduru Kanaan asase so a,

52 you must force all the people who live there to leave. Destroy all their carved statues and all their idols made of metal. Wreck all the places where they worship [their idols].

mompam nnipa a wɔte hɔ no nyinaa na monsɛe wɔn abosom ne ahoni a wɔde aboɔ ayɛ ne asɔreeɛ a wɔasisi no petee mu wɔ mmepɔ so ne beaeɛ a wɔsom wɔn ahoni no nyinaa.

53 Take their land from them and start to live there, because I have given their land to you for you to own.

Mede asase no ama mo. Momfa na montena so.

54 “Divide up the land by throwing (lots/small stones which have been marked) [to decide which group will get which area]. Give the larger areas to the groups that have more people, and give the smaller areas to the groups that have fewer people. Each tribe will receive its own land.

Mo mmusua mu nnipa dodoɔ so na wɔbɛhwɛ ama mo asase. Wɔn a wɔdɔɔso no, wɔbɛma wɔn asase kɛseɛ na wɔn a wɔsua no nso bɛnya asase ketewa.

55 If you do not force the people who live there to leave, they will cause you to have much trouble. They will be like sharp hooks in your eyes, and like thorns in your sides. And they will bring trouble to you, in that land where you will be living.

“Sɛ moampam nnipa a wɔte hɔ no a, wɔbɛyɛ mo ani ase mpe ne mo honam mu nkasɛɛ. Wɔbɛha mo wɔ asase no so.

56 And then I will punish you, as I had planned to punish them.”

Na mede deɛ mahyɛ sɛ mɛyɛ wɔn no bɛyɛ mo.”
