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 [Drawn out] and the children of Israel [God prevails] sang this song to Adonai, and said, “I will sing to Adonai, 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.
Yah is my strength and song. He has become my yishu'ah ·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.
Adonai is a man of war. Yahweh [He sustains breathing] 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.
He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Sea of Suf [Reed 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.
Your right hand, Adonai, is glorious in power. Your right hand, Adonai, 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.
In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send out your 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.
With the blast of your nostrils, the waters piled up! The floods stood upright 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 plunder. My desire shall be satisfied on 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.
You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like 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 you, Adonai, among the deities? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in tehilah ·praise song·, doing wonders?
12 Èdo wò nuɖusi ɖa, eye anyigba mi wo.
You stretched out your 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.
“You, in your chesed ·loving-kindness·, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
14 Dukɔwo ase nya si dzɔ, woadzo nyanyanya; vɔvɔ̃ aɖo Filistitɔwo.
The peoples have sh'ma ·heard obeyed·. 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 [Red] were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab [From father]. All the inhabitants of Canaan [Humbled] have 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 on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone— until your people pass over, Adonai, until the people pass over who you 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.
You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Adonai, which you have made for yourself to dwell in; the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.
18 “Yehowa aɖu fia tegbetegbe!”
Adonai 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 Adonai brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel [God prevails] walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
20 Nyagblɔɖila Miriam, Aron nɔvinyɔnu ƒo axatsɛ, eye wònɔ ŋgɔ na nyɔnuawo woɖu ɣe.
Miriam [Rebellion] the prophetess, the sister of Aaron [Light-bringer], took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.
21 Eye Miriam dzi ha sia: “Midzi ha na Yehowa, elabena eɖu dzi ŋusẽtɔe. Ede sɔ kple sɔdola atsiaƒu la me.”
Miriam [Rebellion] answered them, “Sing to Adonai, for he has triumphed. 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.
Moses [Drawn out] led Israel [God prevails] onward from the Sea of Suf [Reed 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.)
When they came to Marah [Bitter], they couldn’t drink from the waters of Marah [Bitter], for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah [Bitter].
24 Israelviwo lĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le Mose ŋu. Wobiae be, “Ɖe míaku le tsikɔwuame taa?”
The people murmured against Moses [Drawn out], 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.
Then he cried to Adonai. Adonai showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and a judgement for them, and there he tested 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 you will sh'ma ·hear obey· sh'ma ·hear obey· Adonai your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his mitzvot ·instructions·, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have put on the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery]; for I am I am Yahweh Rafa' [Yahweh your Physician, Yahweh your Healer].”
27 Wova ɖo Elim, afi si vudo wuieve kple deti blaadre le. Woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe afi sia ɖe vudoawo to.
They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
