< Exodus 3 >

1 Forsothe Moises kepte the scheep of Jetro, `his wyues fadir, preest of Madian; and whanne he hadde dryue the floc to the ynnere partis of deseert, he cam to Oreb, the hil of God.
Na Mose rehwɛ nʼase Yetro a ɔyɛ Midian sɔfo nguan. Ɔde nguan no wuraa sare no mu kɔɔ akyirikyiri koduu Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔw no so.
2 Forsothe the Lord apperide to hym in the flawme of fier fro the myddis of the buysch, and he seiy that the buysch brente, and was not forbrent.
Prɛko pɛ, na Awurade bɔfo nam wura bi gyaframa mu yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Mose. Mose huu sɛ wura no redɛw nanso na ɛnhyew.
3 Therfor Moyses seide, Y schal go and schal se this greet siyt, whi the buysch is not forbrent.
Enti Mose kae se, “Mɛkɔ akɔhwɛ anwonwade yi ahu nea nti a wura no nhyew.”
4 Sotheli the Lord seiy that Moises yede to se, and he clepide Moises fro the myddis of the buysch, and seide, Moyses! Moises! Which answeride, Y am present.
Bere a Awurade huu sɛ ɔrekɔhwɛ no, ɔfrɛɛ no fii wura no mu se, “Mose! Mose!” Mose gyee so se, “Me ni.”
5 And the Lord seide, Neiye thou not hidur, but vnbynde thou the scho of thi feet, for the place in which thou stondist is hooli lond.
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mmɛn me. Yi wo mpaboa na faako a wugyina no yɛ asase kronkron.”
6 And the Lord seide, Y am God of thi fadir, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. Moises hidde his face, for he durste not biholde ayens God.
Ɔtoaa so se, “Mene wʼagyanom Nyankopɔn, Abraham Nyankopɔn, Isak Nyankopɔn ne Yakob Nyankopɔn no.” Mose kataa nʼanim, efisɛ na osuro sɛ ɔbɛhwɛ Onyankopɔn anim.
7 To whom the Lord seide, Y seiy the affliccion of my puple in Egipt, and Y herde the cry therof, for the hardnesse of hem that ben souereyns of werkis.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mahu amanehunu a me manfo a wɔwɔ Misraim no wɔ mu no, na mate wɔn nkotosrɛ a ɛfa wɔn nnwuma wuranom ho, na minim wɔn ahohia.
8 And Y knew the sorewe of the puple, and Y cam down to delyuere it fro the hondis of Egipcians, and lede out of that lond in to a good lond and brood, into a lond that flowith with milk and hony, to the places of Cananey, and of Ethei, of Amorrey, and of Feresei, of Euey, and of Jebusei.
Maba sɛ merebegye wɔn afi Misraimfo nsam na mayi wɔn afi Misraim asase so de wɔn akɔ asase pa a ɛso bae so, asase a ɛwo ne nufusu wɔ so; asase a Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Amorifo, Perisifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo te so no so.
9 Therfor the cry of the sones of Israel cam to me, and Y seiy the turment of hem, bi which thei ben oppressid of Egipcians.
Mate Israelfo no su na mahu nya a Misraimfo di wɔn no.
10 But come thou, I schal sende thee to Farao, that thou lede out my puple, the sones of Israel, fro Egipt.
Enti afei, merebɛsoma wo akɔ Farao nkyɛn, na woakoyi me man Israel afi Misraim.”
11 And Moises seide to hym, Who am Y, that Y go to Farao, and lede out the sones of Israel fro Egipt?
Mose kae se, “Mene hena a ɛsɛ sɛ mekɔ Farao anim akoyi Israelfo afi Misraim asase so?”
12 And the Lord seide to Moises, Y schal be with thee, and thou schalt haue this signe, that Y haue sent thee, whanne thou hast led out my puple fro Egipt, thou schalt offre to God on this hil.
Onyankopɔn buaa no se, “Mɛka wo ho. Adansede a ɛkyerɛ sɛ me na masoma wo no ni. Sɛ wuyi nnipa no fi Misraim a, mobɛsom Onyankopɔn wɔ saa bepɔw yi so.”
13 Moises seide to God, Lo! Y schal go to the sones of Israel, and Y schal seie to hem, God of youre fadris sente me to you; if thei schulen seie to me, what is his name, what schal Y seie to hem?
Mose bisae se, “Sɛ mekɔ Israelfo no nkyɛn kɔka se wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn na wasoma me na wobisa me se, ‘Onyankopɔn bɛn na mereka ne ho asɛm no’ a, mmuae bɛn na memfa mma wɔn?”
14 The Lord seide to Moises, Y am that am. The Lord seide, Thus thou schalt seie to the sones of Israel, He that is sente me to you.
Obuaa Mose se, ka se, “Mene nea ɔwɔ hɔ daa no. Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Mene Nea Mene na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.’”
15 And eft God seide to Moises, Thou schalt seie these thingis to the sones of Israel, The Lord God of youre fadris, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, sente me to you; this name is to me with outen ende, and this is my memorial in generacioun and in to generacioun.
Onyankopɔn toaa so se, “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Awurade a ɔyɛ mo agyanom Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Nyankopɔn na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.’” Eyi ne me din a wɔde bɛkae me daa fi awo ntoatoaso so kosi awo ntoatoaso so.
16 Go thou, gadere thou the eldere men, that is, iugis, of Israel, and thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord God of youre fadris apperide to me, God of Abraham, and God of Ysaac, and God of Jacob, and seide, Y visitynge haue visitid you, and Y seiy alle thingis that bifelden to you in Egipt;
“Kɔ, frɛ Israelfo mpanyimfo na ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Awurade, Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Nyankopɔn no daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ me, kae se: Mawɛn mo na mahu nea wɔde ayɛ mo wɔ Misraim.
17 and Y seide, that Y lede out you fro the affliccioun of Egipt in to the lond of Cananey, and of Ethei, and of Amorrei, and of Ferezei and of Euei, and of Jebusei, to the lond flowynge with mylk and hony.
Mehyɛ bɔ sɛ meyi mo afi mo awerɛhow mu wɔ Misraim de mo akɔ asase a Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Amorifo, Perisifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo te so nnɛ yi a ɛwo ne nufusu wɔ so no so.’
18 And thei schulen here thi vois; and thou schalt entre, and the eldere men of Israel to the kyng of Egipt, and thou schalt seie to hym, The Lord God of Ebrews clepide vs; we schulen go the weie of thre daies in to wildirnesse, that we offre to oure Lord God.
“Israelfo mpanyimfo betie wʼasɛm no. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne mpanyimfo no kɔ Misraimhene hɔ kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Awurade, Hebrifo Nyankopɔn, ne yɛn ahyia na waka akyerɛ yɛn se, yentu nnansa kwan nkɔ sare so nkɔbɔ afɔre mma no.’
19 But Y woot, that the kyng of Egipt schal not delyuere you that ye go, but bi strong hond;
Nanso minim sɛ Misraimhene remma mo kwan da, gye sɛ nsa bi a ɛyɛ duru hyɛ no ketee.
20 for Y schal holde forthe myn hond, and I schal smyte Egipt in alle my marueils, whiche Y schal do in the myddis of hem; aftir these thingis he schal delyuere you.
Enti mɛteɛ me nsa na mede anwonwade ahorow a mɛyɛ wɔ wɔn mu no nyinaa atia wɔn. Ɛno akyi no, ɔbɛma mo akɔ.
21 And Y schal yyue grace to this puple bifore Egipcians, and whanne ye schulen go out, ye schulen not go out voide;
“Mɛma mo anim aba nyam wɔ Misraimfo no anim na wɔahyehyɛ akyɛde ama mo, na moankɔ no nsapan.
22 but a womman schal axe of hir neiyboresse and of her hoosteesse siluerne vesselis, and goldun, and clothis, and ye schulen putte tho on youre sones and douytris, and ye schulen make nakid Egipt.
Ɔbea biara mmisa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ adwinne ne ntama pa mfi nʼafipamfo ne ne fifo mmea nkyɛn na wɔmfa nsiesie wɔn mmabarima ne wɔn mmabea ho. Saayɛ so na mobɛfa afow Misraimfo no.”
