Mose 2 10
1 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gayi Farao gbɔ, eye nàgatsɔ wò biabia la ɖo eŋkume. Ke mana eya kple eƒe aɖaŋudelawo ƒe dzi me nagasẽ kokoko ale be mate ŋu awɔ nukunu bubuwo, eye maɖe nye ŋusẽ afia.
The LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs among them;
2 Esiawo anye ŋutinya siwo nàgblɔ na viwòwo kple wò tɔgbuiyɔviwo tso nukunu siwo mele wɔwɔm le Egipte la ŋu! Miƒo nu na wo tso ale si mewɔ Egiptetɔwo wozu abunɛtɔwo kple ale si meɖee fia mi bena nyee nye Yehowa la ŋuti.”
and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am the LORD.”
3 Ale Mose kple Aron wogayi Farao gbɔ, eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Yehowa, Hebritɔwo ƒe Mawu la le biabiam be, ‘Zi neni nàgbe toɖoɖom? Ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu ale be woate ŋu ayi aɖasubɔm.
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
4 Ne ègbe asiɖeɖe le ameawo ŋu la, mahe ʋetsuviwo va wò anyigba la dzi etsɔ.
Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
5 Woatsyɔ anyigba la dzi ale gbegbe be anyigba la magadze o. Woaɖu numiemie sue siwo susɔ le kpetsi la megbe kple ati ɖe sia ɖe si le tsitsim le agble dzi.
and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
6 Woayɔ wò aƒewo me, wò dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me kple Egiptetɔwo katã ƒe aƒewo me, nu si mia fofowo loo alo mia tɔgbuiwo mekpɔ kpɔ, tso gbe si gbe wova anyigba sia dzi va se ɖe fifia o.’” Ale Mose trɔ dzo le Farao ŋkume.
Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 Farao ƒe aɖaŋudelawo va Farao gbɔ azɔ, eye wobiae be, “Ɖe nèdi be yeatsrɔ̃ mí gbidigbidia? Ɖe mènya be fifia gɔ̃ hã la, nu sia nu gblẽ le Egipte oa? Ɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔ Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la.”
Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”
8 Wokplɔ Mose kple Aron va Fia Farao gbɔ. Farao gblɔ na wo azɔ be, “Enyo, miyi miasubɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la. Ke ame kawoe miedi be woayi kpli mi?”
Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve the LORD your God; but who are those who will go?”
9 Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Míayi kple mía viŋutsuwo, mía vinyɔnuwo kple míaƒe lãwo, elabena ŋkekenyui ɖu ge míeyina na Yehowa.”
Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old. We will go with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds; for we must hold a feast to the LORD.”
10 Farao yi edzi be, “Yehowa naɖi na mi, nyemaɖe asi le mia kple mia viwo ŋu miayi o. Eme kɔ ƒãa be nu gbegblẽ aɖee mieɖo ɖe ta me.
He said to them, “The LORD be with you if I let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.
11 Mi ŋutsuwo ɖeɖe ko, miyi miasubɔ Yehowa, elabena eyae nye nu si miebia.” Ale wonya wo ɖa le Farao ŋkume.
Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve the LORD; for that is what you desire!” Then they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
12 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Keke wò asiwo ɖe Egiptenyigba la dzi, ne ʋetsuviwo nado, woaxɔ anyigba blibo la dzi, eye woaɖu nu sia nu si kpetsi la gblẽ ɖi.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”
13 Mose do eƒe atikplɔ ɖe dzi, eye Yehowa na ɣedzeƒeya aɖe ƒo le ŋkeke kple zã blibo la me. Esi ŋu ke la, ɣedzeƒeya la he ʋetsuviwo vɛ.
Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 Ʋetsuviawo xɔ anyigba la dzi tso liƒo dzi yi liƒo dzi. Esiae nye ʋetsuviwo ƒe vava vɔ̃ɖitɔ le Egipte ƒe ŋutinya blibo la me, eye etɔgbi magava akpɔ o,
The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, nor will there ever be again.
15 elabena ʋetsuviawo xe anyigba la ƒe ŋkume, eye woxe ɣe hã ƒe ŋkume; ale viviti do ɖe anyigba la dzi. Gawu la, woɖu ati kple gbe ɖe sia ɖe si kpetsi la gblẽ ɖi, ale be nu mumu si nye ati alo gbe la ƒe ɖeke kura meganɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi o.
For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16 Farao ɖo du sesẽ aɖe ɖe Mose kple Aron enumake, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Mewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu kple miawo ŋutɔ hã ŋu.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
17 Migatsɔ nye nu vɔ̃ kem zi mamlɛtɔ sia ko, eye miaɖe kuku na Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la be wòaɖe fukpekpe vɔ̃ɖi sia ɖa le dzinye.”
Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to the LORD your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”
18 Le esia ta Mose dzo le Farao gbɔ, eye wòɖe kuku na Yehowa,
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
19 eye Yehowa ɖo ɣetoɖoƒeya sesẽ aɖe ɖa, eye wòkplɔ ʋetsuviawo katã yi ɖakɔ ɖe Ƒu Dzĩ la me. Ʋetsuvi ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã megasusɔ ɖe Egiptenyigba dzi o!
The LORD sent an exceedingly strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Sea of Suf. There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
20 Ke Yehowa gana Farao ƒe dzi me gasẽ kokoko, eye meɖe asi le Israelviwo ŋu o.
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.
21 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Do wò asi ɖe dziƒo ekema viviti tsiɖitsiɖi ado ɖe Egiptenyigba la dzi.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”
22 Mose wɔ alea, eye blukɔ tsiɖitsiɖi aɖe do ɖe Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi ŋkeke etɔ̃.
Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
23 Le ɣeyiɣi siawo katã me la, Egiptetɔwo megatea ŋu ʋãna o, le esime kekeli nɔ Israelviwo gbɔ abe tsã ene.
They didn’t see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24 Farao yɔ Mose, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Miyi miasubɔ Yehowa, gake miagblẽ miaƒe lãwo ɖe afi sia. Miate ŋu akplɔ mia viwo gɔ̃ hã ayii.”
Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve the LORD. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”
25 Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Kpao, ele be míakplɔ míaƒe lãwo hã ayi hena vɔsa kple numevɔsa na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la.
Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
26 Míagblẽ lã aɖeke ɖi o, eye lã aɖeke ƒe afɔkli gɔ̃ hã matsi anyi o, elabena ele be míasa vɔ na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la, eye míate ŋu anya lã siwo wòatia o, va se ɖe esime míaɖo afi ma.”
Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve the LORD our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve the LORD, until we come there.”
27 Ale Yehowa gana Farao ƒe dzi me gasẽ, eye meɖe asi le ameawo ŋu o.
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.
28 Farao blu ɖe Mose ta be, “Bu le afi sia kaba! Mègana makpɔ wò mo azɔ gbeɖegbeɖe o. Gbe si gbe nàgado ɖe nye ŋkume la, ku kee nàku.”
Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”
29 Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo; mesee. Nyemagado ɖe wò ŋkume azɔ o.”
Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”
