Mose 2 8
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gayi Farao gbɔ, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si. Ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Ne ègbe la, maɖo akpɔkplɔwo ƒe hatsotso gãwo ɖa woava xɔ wò anyigba la dzi tso liƒo ɖeka dzi yi bubu dzi.
And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.
3 Akpɔkplɔwo asɔ gbɔ ɖe Nil tɔsisi la me. Woava ge ɖe wò fiasã la me, age ɖe wò xɔdɔme me, woage ɖe wò abati dzi, woage ɖe wò dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye woage ɖe abolokpowo kple amɔzewo me.
And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs.
4 Akpɔkplɔawo ata le wò ŋutɔ, wò amewo kple ŋuwòmewo katã dzi.’”
And the frogs shall come up both upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
5 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be wòado eƒe atikplɔ ɖe tɔsisiwo, tɔʋuwo kple tawo katã dzi le Egipte.”
And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand with thy rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
6 Aron wɔ nu sia, eye akpɔkplɔwo xɔ anyigba blibo la dzi.
And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ke akunyawɔlawo hã tsɔ woƒe ayemenuwɔwɔwo wɔ nenema, eye woawo hã na akpɔkplɔwo do ɖe anyigba la dzi.
And the magicians did in like manner with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
8 Tete Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron, heƒo koko na wo be, “Miɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa, ekema maɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woayi aɖasa vɔ nɛ.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat Jehovah, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people, and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah.
9 Mose gblɔ be, “Ve nunye, eye nàgblɔ ɣeyiɣi si nàna woayi la nam ekema mado gbe ɖa be akpɔkplɔawo naku le ɣeyiɣi si dzi tututu nàtɔ asii la dzi. Akpɔkplɔawo aku le afi sia afi negbe le tɔsisi la me ko.”
And Moses said to Pharaoh, Have this honor over me: When shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?
10 Farao ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔe etsɔ si gbɔna.” Mose yi edzi be, “Enyo, ava eme abe ale si nègblɔ ene, ekema ànya be, ame aɖeke mede Yehowa, mía Mawu la nu o.
And he said, Tomorrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word, that thou may know that there is none like Jehovah our God.
11 Akpɔkplɔawo katã atsrɔ̃ negbe esiwo le tɔsisi la me ko.”
And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people, they shall remain in the river only.
12 Ale Mose kple Aron wodzo le Farao gbɔ. Mose ɖe kuku na Yehowa le akpɔkplɔ siwo wòɖo ɖa la ŋu.
And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. And Moses cried to Jehovah concerning the frogs which he had brought upon Pharaoh.
13 Yehowa wɔ ɖe ŋugbe si Mose do na Farao la dzi. Akpɔkplɔ kukuwo yɔ duwo godo kple aƒewo me siaa.
And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Woli kɔ wo gleglegle, eye wohe ʋeʋẽ sẽŋu aɖe va anyigba blibo la dzi.
And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Ke esi Farao kpɔ be woɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa ko la, egasẽ dzi me, eye wògbe asiɖeɖe le ameawo ŋu abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart, and did not hearken to them, as Jehovah had spoken.
16 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be, ‘Tsɔ wò atikplɔ ƒo anyigba, eye ke siwo katã le Egiptenyigba dzi la atrɔ azu muwo.’”
And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
17 Mose kple Aron wowɔ nu si Mawu ɖo na wo la. Tete muwo xɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi enumake, eye woƒo kɔ ɖe amewo kple woƒe lãwo katã dzi.
And they did so. And Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth. And there were lice upon man, and upon beast; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Akunyawɔlawo dze agbagba be yewo hã yewoawɔ nu ma ke kple woƒe nunya ɣaɣlawo, gake azɔ ya la, womete ŋui o, eye muawo ɖu amewo kple lãwo siaa.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not. And there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
19 Akunyawɔlawo gblɔ na Farao be, “Esia nye Mawu ƒe asinudɔ.” Ke Farao gasẽ dzi me kokoko: meɖo to wo o, abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God. And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as Jehovah had spoken.
20 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Fɔ etsɔ ŋdi kanya, nàdo go Farao esime wòyina tsi le ge le tɔsisi la me. Gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh. Lo, he comes forth to the water. And say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Ne ègbe la, maɖo togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe ɖa woava Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, axɔ wò kple wò dumegãwo kple wò amewo ƒe aƒewo me. Ale Egiptetɔwo ƒe aƒewo me ayɔ fũu kple togbatowo, eye woayɔ anyigba la ƒe afi sia afi.
Else, if thou will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon they servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses. And the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they are.
22 “‘Gake gbe ma gbe la, mana nuwo nato vovo le Gosenyigba dzi, afi si nye amewo le. Togbatowo ƒe ha manɔ afi ma ya o. Ale nànyae be nye Yehowa mele anyigba sia dzi,
And in that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end thou may know that I am Jehovah in the midst of the earth.
23 elabena made vovototo wò amewo kple nye amewo dome. Dzesidede siawo katã ava eme etsɔ.’”
And I will put a division between my people and thy people. This sign shall be by tomorrow.
24 Yehowa wɔ abe ale si wògblɔ ene. Togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe nye zi ge ɖe Farao ƒe fiasã la me kple eƒe dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye togbatoawo gblẽ nu le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi.
And Jehovah did so, and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses. And in all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.
25 Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron enumake hegblɔ na wo be, “Enyo; miyi miasa vɔ na miaƒe Mawu la, gake misa vɔ la le afii, le anyigba sia dzi, migayi gbedzi o.”
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26 Ke Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Eya masɔ o! Egiptetɔwo lé fu míaƒe vɔsawo. Ne míasa vɔ na Yehowa míaƒe Mawu le woƒe ŋkuta la, woawu mí.
And Moses said, It is not right to do so, for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Jehovah our God. Lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 Ele be míayi aɖanɔ gbedzi ŋkeke etɔ̃, asa vɔ na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la le afi ma, abe ale si wòɖo na mí ene.”
We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God, as he shall command us.
28 Farao ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, maɖe mɔ na mi be miayi aɖasa vɔ na Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, gake migayi didiƒe sãa o. Azɔ la, miɖe abla miaɖe kuku na miaƒe Mawu la ɖe tanye.”
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only ye shall not go very far away. Entreat for me.
29 Mose lɔ̃ ɖe edzi hegblɔ be, “Ne medzo le gbɔwò la, mabia Yehowa be wòana togbatoawo katã nabu. Ke mele nya gbem na wò be mègable mí azɔ, ado ŋugbe na mí be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu, eye emegbe nàgatrɔ susu o.”
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat Jehovah that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow. Only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Jehovah.
30 Mose dzo le Farao gbɔ, eye wòɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe togbatoawo ɖa.
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated Jehovah.
31 Eye Yehowa wɔ nu si Mose bia. Togbatoawo dzo le Farao kple eŋumewo kple eƒe amewo gbɔ; wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã meganɔ anyi o.
And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 Ke fifia gɔ̃ hã la, Farao gasẽ dzi me, eye melɔ̃ be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woadzo o.
And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.
