Mose 2 15
1 Mose kple Israelviwo dzi kafukafuha sia na Yehowa be, “Madzi ha na Yehowa, elabena wodo eya amea ɖe dzi bobobo. Etsɔ sɔ kple sɔdola siaa de atsiaƒu la me.
Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to Jehovah, and spoke, saying, I will sing to Jehovah, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
2 “Yehowae nye nye ŋusẽ kple xɔnametɔ, eya gbɔ ɖeɖe tso va nam. Eyae nye nye Mawu, eya ta makafui. Eyae nye fofonye ƒe Mawu, eya ta madoe ɖe dzi.
Jehovah is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
3 Yehowa nye aʋawɔla, Ɛ̃, eŋkɔe nye Yehowa.
Jehovah is a man of war. Jehovah is his name.
4 Ede Farao ƒe tasiaɖamwo kple aʋakɔwo ƒu, eye wònyrɔ wo ɖe atsiaƒu la me. Farao ƒe aʋakplɔla xɔŋkɔwo nyrɔ ɖe Ƒu Dzĩ la me.
Pharaoh's chariots and his army he has cast into the sea, and his chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.
5 Atsiaƒutsi la tsyɔ wo dzi. Wodze to ɖe atsiaƒu la te abe kpe ene.
The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.
6 O, Yehowa, wò nuɖusibɔ wɔ kalẽ. O, Yehowa, wò nuɖusibɔ kaka futɔwo hlẽ.
Thy right hand, O Jehovah, is glorious in power. Thy right hand, O Jehovah, dashes the enemy in pieces.
7 “Le wò fianyenye ƒe gãnyenye me, ètsɔ ame siwo tsi tsitre ɖe ŋuwò la ƒu anyi. Èɖe asi le wò dziku bibi la ŋu, eye wòfia wo abe gbe ƒuƒu ene.
And in the greatness of thine excellency thou overthrow those who rise up against thee. Thou send forth thy wrath, it consumes them as stubble.
8 Wò ŋɔtimegbɔgbɔ do, eye wòna tsiawo ƒu kpo. Tsi sisi la nɔ te, eye wòlé akpa aveawo ɖe te abe gli ene, eye tsi goglo la zi ɖoɖoe le atsiaƒu la titina.
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were piled up. The floods stood up as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 Futɔ la gblɔ dadatɔe be, ‘Mati wo yome, matu wo, mama woƒe afunyinuwo. Mana nye didi ɖe wo ŋuti nava eme. Maɖe nye yi tso aku me, eye nye asi atsrɔ̃ wo.’
The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil, my desire shall be satisfied upon them. I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Ke wò la, ègbɔ wò gbɔgbɔ, eye ƒu la ŋe tsyɔ wo dzi. Wodze to abe asabukpe ene ɖe tsi gã la te.
Thou did blow with thy wind, the sea covered them. They sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11 “O, Yehowa, ame kae le abe wò ene le mawuwo dome? Ame kae le abe wò ene le kɔkɔenyenye kɔkɔtɔ me, le ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe ŋɔdzi me, eye wòwɔa nukudɔwo?
Who is like thee, O Jehovah, among the gods? Who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Èdo wò nuɖusi ɖa, eye anyigba mi wo.
Thou stretched out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 “Àkplɔ ame siwo nèɖe la le wò lɔlɔ̃ mavɔ la ƒe ŋusẽ me. Le wò ŋusẽ me, àkplɔ wo ayi wò nɔƒe kɔkɔe lae.
Thou in thy loving kindness have led the people that thou have redeemed. Thou have guided them in thy strength to thy holy habitation.
14 Dukɔwo ase nya si dzɔ, woadzo nyanyanya; vɔvɔ̃ aɖo Filistitɔwo.
The peoples have heard, they tremble. Pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Ŋɔdzi alé Edom fiawo, eye Moab ƒe kplɔlawo anɔ dzodzom nyanyanya, Kanaantɔwo hã ƒe dzi alolõ.
Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed, the mighty men of Moab. Trembling takes hold upon them. All the inhabitants of Canaan are melted away.
16 Ŋɔdzi kple vɔvɔ̃ adze wo dzi. Woatrɔ azu kpe, le wò abɔ ƒe ŋusẽ ta, va se ɖe esime wò amewo atso eme ava ayi. O, Yehowa, va se ɖe esime wò ame siwo nèƒle la, atso eme ava yi.
Terror and dread falls upon them. By the greatness of thine arm they are as still as a stone, till thy people pass over, O Jehovah, till the people pass over whom thou have purchased.
17 Wò la, àkplɔ wo aɖo wo te le wò to si nye wò domenyinu la dzi. O, Yehowa, teƒe si nèwɔ be wòanye wò nɔƒe la, Aƒetɔ, Kɔkɔeƒe si nètsɔ wò ŋutɔ wò asiwo wɔe la.
Thou will bring them in, and plant them on the mountain of thine inheritance, the place, O Jehovah, which thou have made for thee to dwell in, the sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 “Yehowa aɖu fia tegbetegbe!”
Jehovah shall reign forever and ever.
19 Farao ƒe sɔwo, eƒe sɔdolawo kple woƒe tasiaɖamwo kplɔ wo ɖo to atsiaƒu la me. Ke Yehowa na tsigliawo mu gbagbã tsyɔ wo dzi, le esime Israelviwo zɔ ƒuƒuiƒe to wo me.
For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Jehovah brought back the waters of the sea upon them, but the sons of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea.
20 Nyagblɔɖila Miriam, Aron nɔvinyɔnu ƒo axatsɛ, eye wònɔ ŋgɔ na nyɔnuawo woɖu ɣe.
And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21 Eye Miriam dzi ha sia: “Midzi ha na Yehowa, elabena eɖu dzi ŋusẽtɔe. Ede sɔ kple sɔdola atsiaƒu la me.”
And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to Jehovah, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
22 Azɔ la, Mose kplɔ Israelviwo to Ƒu Dzĩ la nu, eye woyi Sur gbedzi. Wonɔ afi ma ŋkeke etɔ̃, ke womekpɔ tsi woano o.
And Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Esi wova ɖo Mara la, womete ŋu no tsi le afi ma o, elabena tsi la le vevem. (Esia ta woyɔa teƒe ma be Mara.)
And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called Marah.
24 Israelviwo lĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le Mose ŋu. Wobiae be, “Ɖe míaku le tsikɔwuame taa?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 Mose ɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòakpe ɖe yewo ŋu. Yehowa fia ati aɖee wòtsɔ da ɖe tsi la me, eye tsi veve la trɔ zu tsi nyui. Le Mara la, Yehowa de se siawo na wo be yeado woƒe ɖokuitsɔtsɔ na ye akpɔ.
And he cried to Jehovah. And Jehovah showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
26 “Ne miaɖo to Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe gbe, miawɔ nu si dza le eƒe ŋkume, eye miawɔ eƒe sewo kple ɖoɖowo dzi la, ekema nyemana dɔléle siwo mena wova Egiptetɔwo dzi la nava mia dzi o, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, nyee daa gbe le mia ŋu.”
and he said, If thou will diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon thee, which I have put upon the Egyptians, for I am Jehovah who heals thee.
27 Wova ɖo Elim, afi si vudo wuieve kple deti blaadre le. Woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe afi sia ɖe vudoawo to.
And they came to Elim, where were twelve springs of water, and seventy palm trees, and they encamped there by the waters.
