< Judges 2 >
1 And the aungel of the Lord stiede fro Galgala to the place of weperis, and seide, Y ledde you out of Egipt, and Y brouyte you in to the lond, `for which Y swoor to youre fadris, and bihiyte, that Y schulde not make void my couenaunt with you in to with outen ende;
Na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ firi Gilgal kɔɔ Bokim de nkra kɔmaa Israelfoɔ sɛ, “Meyii mo firii Misraim, de mo baa asase a mekaa ho ntam sɛ mede bɛma mo agyanom no so. Mekaa sɛ, Meremmu mʼapam a me ne mo ayɛ no so.
2 so oneli that ye schulde not smyte boond of pees with the dwelleris of this lond, and schulden distrie `the auteris of hem; and ye nolden here my vois. Whi diden ye these thingis?
Mo fam deɛ ne sɛ, mo ne nnipa a wɔte asase yi so no nnyɛ apam biara na mmom mobɛsɛe wɔn afɔrebukyia nyinaa. Na adɛn enti na moanni me mmaransɛm so?
3 Wherfore Y nolde do hem awei fro youre face, that ye haue enemyes, and that `the goddis of hem be to you in to fallyng.
Deɛ moayɛ yi enti, merempam nnipa a wɔtete mo asase so no. Wɔbɛyɛ mo nkyɛnmu nkasɛɛ na wɔn anyame nso ayɛ mfidie ama mo.”
4 And whanne the `aungel of the Lord spak these wordis to alle the sones of Israel, thei reisiden her vois, and wepten; and the name of that place was clepid,
Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ kasa wieeɛ no Israelfoɔ no suu denden.
5 of weperis, ether of teeris; and thei offriden there sacrifices to the Lord.
Enti wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin “Agyaadwotwa”. Na wɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ hɔ maa Awurade.
6 Therfor Josue lefte the puple; and the sones of Israel wenten forth, ech man in to his possessioun, that thei schulden gete it.
Yosua gyaa nkurɔfoɔ no kwan akyi no, mmusuakuo no mu biara kɔfaa nʼagyapadeɛ a wɔde maa no sɛ ne kyɛfa no.
7 And thei serueden the Lord in alle the daies of Josue, and of eldere men that lyueden aftir hym in long tyme, and knewen alle the grete werkis of the Lord, whiche he hadde do with Israel.
Na Israelfoɔ no somm Awurade wɔ Yosua ne mpanimfoɔ a wɔanyini sene Yosua a wɔhunuu nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade yɛ maa Israel, Yosua nkwa nna nyinaa mu no.
8 Forsothe Josue, sone of Nun, `seruaunt of the Lord, `was deed of an hundrid yeer and ten;
Afei, Nun babarima Yosua, Awurade ɔsomfoɔ wuiɛ a na wadi mfirinhyia ɔha ne edu.
9 and thei birieden hym in the endis of his possessioun, in Thannath of Sare, in the hil of Effraym, at the north coost of the hil Gaas.
Wɔsiee no wɔ nʼawunya asase a na ɛwɔ Timnat-Heres, Efraim bepɔ asase no a ɛwɔ Gaas bepɔ no atifi fam no.
10 And al that generacioun was gaderid to her fadris; and othere men riseden, that knewen not the Lord, and the werkis whiche he `hadde do with Israel.
Saa awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ no akyi no, awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ foforɔ nyiniiɛ a na wɔnnim Awurade, na wɔnkae nneɛma akɛseɛ a wayɛ ama Israel.
11 And the sones of Israel diden yuel in the siyt of the Lord, and thei serueden Baalym and Astaroth;
Na Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ deɛ ɛnyɛ wɔ Awurade ani so, na wɔsom Baalim ahoni.
12 and forsoken the Lord God of her fadris, that ledden hem out of the lond of Egipt; and thei sueden alien goddis, the goddis of puplis, that dwelliden in `the cumpasse of hem, and worschipeden tho goddis, and excitiden the Lord to greet wraththe, and forsoken hym,
Wɔgyaa Awurade, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn a ɔyii wɔn firii Misraim no. Wɔdii anyame foforɔ akyi, somm saa anyame no a ɛyɛ nnipa a wɔatwa wɔn ho ahyia no dea. Na wɔmaa Awurade bo fuiɛ.
13 and serueden Baal and Astoroth.
Wɔgyaa Awurade akyi die, kɔsom Baalim ne Astoret ahoni.
14 And the Lord was wrooth ayens Israel, and bitook hem in to the hondis of rauyscheris, whiche rauyscheris token hem, and seelden to enemyes, that dwelliden `bi cumpas; and thei myyten not ayenstonde her aduersaries;
Yei maa Awurade bo fuu Israel, enti ɔde wɔn hyɛɛ afomfafoɔ nsa, ma wɔwiaa wɔn ahodeɛ. Ɔtɔn wɔn maa wɔn atamfoɔ a wɔatwa wɔn ho ahyia, na wɔantumi annyina wɔn ano.
15 but whidir euer thei wolden go, the hond of the Lord was on hem, as he spak and swoor to hem; and thei weren turmentid greetli.
Ɛberɛ biara a Israelfoɔ bɛkɔ ɔko no, Awurade ko tia wɔn ma wɔdi nkoguo, sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ bɔ no. Enti, wɔn ho hiahiaa wɔn papaapa.
16 And the Lord reiside iugis, that `delyueriden hem fro the hondis of destrieris, but thei nolden here hem,
Afei, Awurade pagyaa atemmufoɔ ma wɔbɛgyee Israelfoɔ firi wɔn atamfoɔ nsam.
17 and thei diden fornycacioun, `that is, idolatrie, with alien goddis, and worschipiden hem. Soone thei forsoken the weie, bi which `the fadris of hem entriden; and thei herden the `comaundementis of the Lord, and diden alle thingis contrarie.
Nanso, Israelfoɔ no antie atemmufoɔ no. Wɔkɔɔ so de wɔn ho bɔɔ anyame foforɔ, kotoo wɔn. Wɔtwee wɔn ho ntɛm so firii wɔn agyanom a wɔyɛɛ ɔsetie maa Awurade mmaransɛm no kwan so.
18 And whanne the Lord reiside iugis in `the daies of hem, he was bowid bi mercy, and he herde the weilyngis of hem turmentid, and he delyuerede hem fro the sleyng of wasteris.
Ɛberɛ biara a Awurade de ɔtemmufoɔ bi bɛdua Israel so no, na ɔka saa ɔtemmufoɔ no ho na ɔgye nnipa no firi wɔn atamfoɔ no nsam wɔ saa ɔtemmufoɔ no nkwa nna nyinaa mu. Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade hunuu ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔredi wɔn nya na wɔrehunu amane no mmɔbɔ.
19 Sotheli aftir that the iuge was deed, thei turneden ayen, and diden many thingis grettere `in yuel than her fadris diden; and thei sueden alien goddis, and serueden hem, and worschipiden hem; thei leften not her owne fyndyngis, and the hardeste weie `bi which thei weren wont to go.
Nanso, atemmufoɔ no wuo akyi no, nnipa no sane kɔɔ wɔn bra bɔne no mu a, afei na wɔasɛesɛe sene wɔn a wɔdii wɔn anim ɛkan no. Wɔdii anyame foforɔ akyi. Wɔkotoo wɔn, somm wɔn. Na wɔampɛ sɛ wɔgyae wɔn nnebɔnesɛm ne kɔnseneeɛsɛm no.
20 And the strong veniaunce of the Lord was wrooth ayens Israel, and he seide, For this puple hath maad voide my couenaunt which Y couenauntide with her fadris, and dispiside to here my vois; also Y schal not do a wey folkis,
Enti, Awurade bo fuu Israel. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Esiane sɛ saa nnipa yi abu apam a me ne wɔn agyanom yɛeɛ so, na wɔapo me mmaransɛm enti,
21 whiche Josue `lefte, and was deed;
merempamo aman a Yosua anni wɔn so ansa na ɔrewuo no.
22 that in hem Y asaie Israel, whether thei kepen the weie of the Lord, and goen ther ynne, as her fadris kepten, ether nay.
Meyɛɛ yei de sɔɔ Israel hwɛeɛ sɛ wɔbɛtie Awurade sɛdeɛ wɔn agyanom yɛeɛ no.”
23 Therfor the Lord lefte alle these naciouns, and nolde destrie soone, nethir bitook in to the hondis of Josue.
Ɛno enti na amma Awurade ampam aman no ntɛm so na wamma Yosua ammɛdi wɔn nyinaa so no.
