1 Chronicles 5
1 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be listed according to the birthright.
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 Judah prevailed above his brothers, and from him came the prince; but the birthright 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 Reuben the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Israel abakan Ruben no mmabarima ne: Hanok, Palu, Hesron ne Karmi.
4 The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,
Yoel asefo ne Semaia, Gog, Simei,
5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,
Mika, Reaia, Baal,
6 and Beerah his son, whom Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria carried away captive. He was prince of the Reubenites.

7 His brothers by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was listed: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,
Wɔakyerɛw Beera nkurɔfo din sɛnea wɔn mmusua ne abusua no te: Yeiel ne wɔn ntuanoni, na Sakaria
8 and Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who lived in Aroer, even to Nebo and Baal Meon;
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 even to the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates, because their livestock were multiplied in the land of Gilead.
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 In the days of Saul, they made war with the Hagrites, who fell by their hand; and they lived in their tents throughout all the land east of Gilead.
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 beside them in the land of Bashan to Salecah:
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 chief, Shapham the second, Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
Na Yoel na otua wɔn ano wɔ Basan asase so. Na Safam, Yanai ne Safat yɛ nʼaboafo.
13 Their brothers of their fathers’ houses: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber, seven.
Na wɔn abusuafo a wɔyɛ ntuanofo ma mmusua afoforo ason din ne: Mikael, Mesulam, Seba, Yorai, Yakan, Sia ne Eber.
14 These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, 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 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of their fathers’ houses.
Abdiel babarima Ahi, Guni babarima no na na ɔyɛ wɔn mmusua no ntuano.
16 They lived in Gilead in Bashan and in its towns, and in all the pasture lands of Sharon as far as their borders.
Gadfo no tenaa Gilead asase a ɛwɔ Basan ne ne nkuraa ne Saron tataw no nyinaa so.
17 All these were listed by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, 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 Reuben, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, able to shoot with bow, and skillful in war, were forty-four thousand seven hundred sixty that were able to go out to war.
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 They made war with the Hagrites, with Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.
Wɔko tiaa Hagarfo, Yeturfo, Nafisfo ne Nodabfo.
20 They were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he answered them because they put their trust in 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 They took away their livestock: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred fifty thousand, and of donkeys two thousand, and of men one hundred thousand.
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. 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 The children of the half-tribe of Manasseh lived in the land. They increased from Bashan to Baal Hermon, Senir, and Mount Hermon.
Manase abusua fa no trɛw wɔ asase no so fi Basan kosii Baal-Hermon, Senir ne bepɔw Hermon ho. Na wɔdɔɔso yiye.
24 These were the heads of their fathers’ houses: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel—mighty men of valor, famous men, heads of their fathers’ houses.
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 They trespassed against the God of their fathers, and played the prostitute after the gods of the peoples of the land whom God destroyed before them.
Nanso na wonni nokware, na wobuu wɔn agyanom ne Onyankopɔn apam no so. Wɔsom aman a Onyankopɔn sɛee wɔn no anyame.
26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria, and he carried away the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, and brought them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and to the river of Gozan, to 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.
