Exodus 23
1 Thou schalt not resseyue a vois of leesyng, nether thou schalt ioyne thin hond, that thou seie fals witnessyng for a wickid man.
“Nkeka nkontomposɛm. Wo ne ɔbɔnefoɔ nni nsawɔsoɔ, na woanni adansekurumu.
2 Thou schalt not sue the cumpanye to do yuel, nether thou schalt ascente to the sentence of ful many men in doom, that thou go awey fro treuthe.
“Mfa wo ho nhyehyɛ nnipadɔm bi a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔyɛ bɔne mu. Sɛ woredi adanseɛ a, nhwɛ nnipa dodoɔ bi so nni mma wɔn.
3 Also thou schalt not haue mercy of a pore man in a `cause, ethir doom.
Nka sɛ obi yɛ ohiani enti wobɛdi adanseɛ ama no.
4 If thou meetist `the oxe of thin enemye, ethir the asse errynge, lede thou ayen to hym.
“Sɛ wohunu wo ɔtamfoɔ nantwie anaa nʼafunumu a wayera a, kyere no kɔma ne wura no.
5 If thou seest that the asse of hym that hatith thee liggyth vndir a burthun, thou schalt not passe, but thou schalt reise with hym.
Sɛ wokɔto sɛ wo ɔtamfoɔ repagya nʼafunumu agyina ne nan so wɔ adesoa duruduru ase a, ntwa ne ho nkɔ. Boa no.
6 Thou schalt not bowe in the doom of a pore man.
“Sɛ obi yɛ ohiani a, ɛnkyerɛ sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbu tia no.
7 Thou schalt fle a lesyng. Thou schalt not sle an innocent man, and iust; for Y am aduersarie to a wickid man.
Mfa asɛm a wonhunuiɛ nto obi so; mma wɔnkum obi a ɔnyɛɛ bɔne biara. Merempene so saa.
8 Take thou not yiftis, that blynden also prudent men, and destryen the wordys of iust men.
“Nnye adanmudeɛ na adanmudegyeɛ fira onipa ani. Adanmudegyeɛ fira anyansafoɔ ani ma wɔsi gyinaeɛ de tia onyamesuroni asɛm.
9 Thou schalt not be diseseful to a pilgrym, for ye knowen the soulis of comelyngis, for also ye weren pilgryms in the lond of Egipt.
“Nhyɛ ahɔhoɔ so; wonim sɛdeɛ woyɛ ɔmamfrani a ɛteɛ. Kae deɛ wohunuu wɔ Misraim asase so hɔ no.
10 Sixe yeer thou schalt sowe thi lond, and thou schalt gadre fruytis therof;
“Dua na twa na ɛntoatoa so saa ara nkɔsi mfeɛ nsia.
11 forsothe in the seuenthe yeer thou schalt leeue it, and schalt make to reste, that the pore men of thi puple ete, and what euer is residue, the beestis of the feeld ete; so thou schalt do in thi vyner, and in place of olyue trees.
Na mfeɛ nson so deɛ, ma asase no nna hɔ kwa na ma ahiafoɔ ntwa nnɔbaeɛ biara a ɛbɛnyini wɔ so no; nkaeɛ no, gya ma mmoa nwe. Wo bobe turo ne wo ngo dua turo hyɛ saa mmara yi ase.
12 Sixe dayes thou schalt worche, in the seuenthe dai thou schalt ceesse, that thin oxe and asse reste, and the sone of thin handmaide, and the comelyng be refreischid.
“Nnansia na fa yɛ adwuma na home ne nnanson so. Yei bɛma wʼanantwie, wo mfunumu, wo fiefoɔ, wʼasomfoɔ ne wʼahɔhoɔ nso ahome.
13 Kepe ye alle thingis, whiche Y seide to you; and ye schulen not swere bi the name of alien goddis, nether it schal be herd of youre mouth.
“Monni nsɛm a maka yi nyinaa so na monkae nso sɛ, ɛnsɛ sɛ mobɔ onyame foforɔ biara din.
14 In thre tymes bi alle yeeris ye schulen halewe feestis to me.
“Afe biara mu, monhyɛ fa mprɛnsa mfa nhyɛ me animuonyam.
15 Thou schalt kepe the solempnyte of therf looues; seuene daies thou schalt ete therf breed, as Y comaundide to thee, in the tyme of monethe of newe thingis, whanne thou yedist out of Egipt; thou schalt not appere voide in my siyt.
“Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, monni Apiti Afahyɛ. Sɛ ɛduru so a, nnanson mu, obiara nni burodo a mmɔreka nni mu sɛdeɛ mehyɛɛ mo no. Ɛsɛ sɛ afe biara mohyɛ saa fa yi wɔ ɔbosome Abib mu, bosome a mode tu firii Misraim no mu. “Ɛduru saa ɛberɛ no a, obiara mmrɛ me afɔrebɔdeɛ.
16 And thou schalt kepe the solempnete of the monethe of the firste thingis of thi werk, what euer thingis thou hast sowe in the feeld. Also thou schalt kepe the solempnyte in the goyng out of the yeer, whanne thou hast gaderid all thi fruytis of the feeld.
“Ɛno akyiri, Otwa Afahyɛ na ɛdi so. Saa afahyɛ yi duru so a, momfa mo aduanekan mmrɛ me. “Deɛ ɛtwa toɔ yɛ afudeɛ anoboa afahyɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi no ɔtwa berɛ no akyiri.
17 Thries in the yeer al thi male kynde schal appere bifore thi Lord God.
“Afahyɛ ahodoɔ mmiɛnsa yi mu nyinaa, ɛsɛ sɛ Israel mmarima nyinaa ba Awurade Onyankopɔn anim.
18 Thou schalt not offre the blood of thi slayn sacrifice on sour douy; nether the fatnesse of my solempnete schal dwelle til to the morewtid.
“Mfa mmoa a wɔde wɔn bɔɔ afɔdeɛ no mogya nka burodo a mmɔreka wɔ mu ho mma me. “Saa ara nso na mmoa a wɔde wɔn bɔɔ afɔdeɛ no sradeɛ no, mommma adeɛ nnkye so.
19 Thou schalt bere the firste thingis of the fruytis of thi lond in to the hows of thi Lord God. Thou schalt not sethe a kide in the mylke of his modir.
“Sɛ motwa mo mfudeɛ a, momfa otwakane mu nyiyimu a ɛsɔ ani mmrɛ me; wɔde bɛma Awurade mo Onyankopɔn. “Nnoa abirekyie ba wɔ ne maame nufosuo mu.
20 Lo! Y schal sende myn aungel, that schal go bifore thee, and schal kepe in the weie, and schal lede to the place which Y haue maad redi to thee.
“Meresoma ɔbɔfoɔ na wadi mo anim de mo akɔ asase a masiesie ama mo no so dwoodwoo.
21 Take thou hede to hym, and here thou his vois, nether gesse thou hym to be dispisid; for he schal not foryyue, whanne thou synnest, and my name is in him.
Momfa anidie mma no na monni ne nsɛm so; monnsɔre ntia no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔremfa mo amumuyɛ nkyɛ mo. Ɔyɛ mʼananmusini, na me din na ɛda ne so.
22 For if thou herest his vois, and doist alle thingis whiche Y speke, Y schal be enemy to thin enemyes, and Y schal turment hem, that turmenten thee;
Na sɛ moto mo bo ase, na motie no, di me nsɛm nyinaa so a, mɛyɛ ɔtamfoɔ matia mo atamfoɔ.
23 and myn aungel schal go bifore thee, and he schal lede yn thee to Amorrei, and Ethei, and Ferezei, and Cananey, and Euey, and Jebusei, whiche Y schal breke.
Me ɔbɔfoɔ bɛdi mo anim de mo aba Amorifoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Kanaanfoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ asase so na moatena hɔ. Na mɛsɛe saa nnipa no nyinaa wɔ mo anim.
24 Thou schalt not onoure `the goddis of hem, nether thou schalt worschipe hem; thou schalt not do the werkis of hem, but thou schalt destrie the goddis, and thou schalt breke the ymagis of hem.
Monnsom anyame a saa aman yi som wɔn no bi, na mommmɔ afɔdeɛ mma wɔn ɛda biara da. Monnni saa abosonsomfoɔ yi akyi. Monni wɔn so na mommubu wɔn ahoni a ɛyɛ animguasedeɛ no ngu.
25 And ye schulen serue to youre Lord God, that Y blesse thi looues, and watris, and do awei sikenesse fro the myddis of thee;
Mo Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn nko ara na monsom no. Na mɛhyira mo ama mo anya aduane ne nsuo na mɛyi nyarewa nyinaa afiri mo so.
26 neithir a womman vnfruytful, neither bareyn, schal be in thi lond; Y schal fille the noumbre of thi daies.
Apɔn anaa abonini remma mo asase no so na mɛma mo nna amee mo.
27 Y schal sende my drede in to thi biforgoyng, and Y schal sle al the puple, to which thou schalt entre, and Y schal turne the backis of alle thin enemyes bifore thee;
“Awurade ho hu bɛka aman a mobɛdi wɔn so no so nnipa nyinaa na wɔadwane wɔ mo anim.
28 and Y schal sende out bifore scrabrouns, that schulen dryue awei Euey, and Cananey, and Ethei, bifore that thou entre.
Mɛma kotokurodu abɛpam Hewifoɔ, Kanaanfoɔ ne Hetifoɔ afiri mo anim.
29 Y schal not caste hem out fro thi face in o yeer, lest the lond be turned in to wildirnesse, and beestis encreesse ayens thee;
Merenyɛ yeinom nyinaa afe baako pɛ mu na asase no annane ɛserɛ amma nkekaboa ammu amfa mo so.
30 litil and litil I schal caste hem out fro thi siyt, til thou be encreessid, and welde the loond.
Mɛpam wɔn nkakrankakra kɔsi sɛ mobɛdɔɔso, atumi ahyɛ asase no so ma.
31 Forsothe Y schal sette thi termys fro the reed see til to the see of Palestyns, and fro desert til to the flood. Y schal yyue to youre hondis the dwelleris of the lond, and Y schal caste hem out fro youre siyt;
“Mɛto mo ahyeɛ afiri Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ano akɔsi Filistifoɔ mpoano na mede afiri ɛserɛ a ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam no so akɔsi Asuo Eufrate, na mɛma mo adi nnipa a wɔte asase no so no so, na moapam wɔn afiri mo anim.
32 thou schalt not make boond of pees with hem, nethir with `the goddis of hem.
Mo ne wɔn nnyɛ apam biara, na saa ara nso na mo ne wɔn anyame no nnyɛ biribiara.
33 Dwelle thei not in thi lond, lest perauenture thei make thee to do synne ayens me, yf thou seruest her goddis, which thing certis schal be to thee in to sclaundir.
Mommma wɔmmɛtena mo mu, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ wɔbɛtena mo mu a, wɔde wɔn abosonsom no bɛsane mo na sɛ ɛba saa nso a, ɛbɛgu mo asu.”
