Mose 2 9
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Trɔ nàyi Farao gbɔ, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Yehowa, Hebritɔwo ƒe Mawu la be nàɖe asi le yeƒe amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔ ye.
And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord God of the Hebrews; Send my people away that they may serve me.
2 Ne miegbe asiɖeɖe le wo ŋu, eye miezi wo dzi la,
If however you will not send my people away, but yet detain them:
3 ekema Yehowa ƒe asi ahe dɔvɔ̃ dziŋɔ aɖe ava miaƒe lãha siwo le gbedzi la dzi, ava miaƒe sɔwo, tedziwo, kposɔwo, nyiwo kple alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo siaa dzi.
behold, the hand of the Lord shall be upon your cattle in the fields, both on the horses, and on the asses, and on the camels and oxen and sheep, a very great mortality.
4 Gake Yehowa ade vovo Israelviwo kple Egiptetɔwo ƒe lãhawo dome, ale be Israelviwo ƒe lã aɖeke maku o.’”
And I will make a marvellous distinction in that time between the cattle of the Egyptians, and the cattle of the children of Israel: nothing shall die of all that is of the children's of Israel.
5 Yehowa ɖo ɣeyiɣi, eye wògblɔ be, “Etsɔ si gbɔna la, Yehowa awɔ nu sia le anyigba sia dzi.”
And God fixed a limit, saying, To-morrow the Lord will do this thing on the land.
6 Eye Yehowa na wòva eme. Esi ŋu ke ŋdi la, Egiptetɔwo ƒe lãwo katã de asi kuku me, ke Israelviwo tɔwo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã meku o.
And the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one.
7 Farao dɔ ame ɖa be woakpɔe be Israelviwo ƒe lãwo ya tsi agbe mahã. Togbɔ be woɖi ɖase nɛ be nyateƒee hã la, metrɔ eƒe tameɖoɖo la o. Egagbe asiɖeɖe le ameawo ŋu kokoko!
And when Pharao saw, that of all the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one, the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
8 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be, “Milɔ dzowɔ asiʋlo aɖewo tso kpo me, eye Mose nawui ɖe yame le Farao ŋkume.
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, Take you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses scatter it towards heaven before Pharao, and before his servants.
9 Dzowɔ la akaka abe ʋuʋudedi ene ɖe Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, eye wòana ƒoƒoe nate amewo kple lãwo siaa le anyigba blibo la dzi.”
And let it become dust over all the land of Egypt, and there shall be upon men and upon beasts sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts, in all the land of Egypt.
10 Ale woɖe dzowɔ tso kpo me, eye woyi Farao gbɔ. Esi Farao nɔ wo kpɔm la, Mose wu dzowɔ la ɖe yame, eye wòzu ƒoƒoe te amewo kple lãwo siaa le anyigba blibo la dzi.
So he took of the ashes of the furnace before Pharao, and Moses scattered it towards heaven, and it became sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts.
11 Akunyawɔlawo mete ŋu tɔ ɖe Mose ŋkume o, le ƒoƒoeawo ta, elabena ƒoƒoeawo te Egiptetɔwo katã.
And the sorcerers could not stand before Moses because of the sores, for the sores were on the sorcerers, and in all the land of Egypt.
12 Ke Yehowa gana Farao ƒe dzi me gasẽ kokoko, ale wògagbe nusese abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe na Mose da ɖi ene.
And the Lord hardened Pharao's heart, and he listened not to them, as the Lord appointed.
13 Azɔ la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Fɔ ŋdi kanya, nàdo ɖe Farao ŋkume, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa, Hebritɔwo ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye si, Ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao; and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord God of the Hebrews, Send away my people that they may serve me.
14 Ne menye nenema o la, fifia ya la, maɖo nye dɔvɔ̃ ɖe mia dome kple ŋusẽ blibo, wòagblẽ nu le wò ŋutɔ, wò dumegãwo kple wò amewo ŋuti ale be mianyae be ame aɖeke megale anyigba blibo la dzi abe nye ene o.
For at this present time do I send forth all my plagues into your heart, and the heart of your servants and of your people; that you may know that there is not another such as I in all the earth.
15 Anye ne le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, medo nye asi ɖa, gblẽ nu le wò kple wò amewo ŋu kple dɔvɔ̃ aɖe si ate ŋu atsrɔ̃ mi katã ɖa le anyigba la dzi hafi.
For now I will stretch forth my hand and strike you and kill your people, and you shall be consumed from off the earth.
16 Gake meɖe miaƒe agbe le susu sia ta be maɖe nye ŋusẽ afia mi, eye woaɖe gbeƒã nye ŋkɔ le anyigba blibo la dzi.
And for this purpose have you been preserved, that I might display in you my strength, and that my name might bepublished in all the earth.
17 Ke ègatsi tsitre ɖe nye ameawo ŋu kokoko, eye nègbe be yemaɖe asi le wo ŋu woadzo o,
Do you then yet exert yourself to hinder my people, so as not to let them go?
18 eya ta le etsɔ ɣeyiɣi sia tututu la, maɖo kpetsi vɔ̃ɖitɔ ɖa wòadza ɖe dukɔ blibo la dzi. Kpetsi sia tɔgbi medza kpɔ tso esime woɖo Egipte gɔme anyi o.
Behold, to-morrow at this hour I will rain a very great hail, such as has not been in Egypt, from the time it was created until this day.
19 Ɖe gbe na ameawo azɔ be, woakplɔ wò lãhawo kple nu siwo katã le asiwò le gbedzi la ava de kpo me, elabena kpetsi la adza ɖe amewo kple lã siwo womekplɔ va aƒe me o la siaa dzi, eye wo katã woaku.’”
Now then hasten to gather your cattle, and all that you have in the fields; for all the men and cattle as many as shall be found in the fields, and shall not enter into a house, (but the hail shall fall upon them, ) shall die.
20 Yehowa ƒe nya siawo do ŋɔdzi na Egiptetɔ aɖewo ale gbegbe be wokplɔ woƒe lãwo kple kluviwo de xɔ me.
He of the servants of Pharao that feared the word of the Lord, gathered his cattle into the houses.
21 Ke ame siwo mebu Yehowa ƒe nya nanekee o la gblẽ woƒe lãwo ɖe gbedzi.
And he that did not attend in his mind to the word of the Lord, left the cattle in the fields.
22 Yehowa gagblɔ na Mose be, “Fia asi dziƒo, eye nàna kpetsi la nadza le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, ɖe amewo, atiwo kple lãwo siaa dzi.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand to heaven, and there shall be hail on all the land of Egypt, both on the men and on the cattle, and on all the herbage on the land.
23 Ale Mose do asi ɖe dzi, eye Yehowa ɖo dziɖegbe kple kpetsi kple dzikedzo ɖa.
And Moses stretched forth his hand to heaven, and the Lord sent thunderings and hail; and the fire ran along upon the ground, and the Lord rained hail on all the land of Egypt.
24 Nu sia dzi ŋɔ wu gbɔgblɔ, kpetsi sia tɔgbi medza kpɔ le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi esi wòzu dukɔ o.
So there was hail and flaming fire mingled with hail; and the hail was very great, such as was not in Egypt, from the time there was a nation upon it.
25 Nu geɖewo gblẽ le Egipte. Nu sia nu si tsi gbedzi, amewo kple lãwo siaa woku; atiwo ta ŋe, eye agblemenuwo katã gblẽ.
And the hail struck in all the land of Egypt both man and beast, and the hail struck all the grass in the field, and the hail broke in pieces all the trees in the field.
26 Teƒe ɖeka pɛ si ko dzi kpetsi la medza ɖo o, le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzie nye Gosen, afi si Israelviwo nɔ.
Only in the land of Gesem where the children of Israel were, the hail was not.
27 Farao ɖo du ɖe Mose kple Aron, eye wòʋu eme na wo be, “Medze si nye vodada azɔ, Yehowa tɔ dzɔ. Nye kple nye amewo míeda vo tso gɔmedzedzea va se ɖe fifia.
And Pharao sent and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time: the Lord [is] righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28 Miɖe kuku na Yehowa be, wòatsi dziɖegbe kple kpetsi dziŋɔ sia nu, ekema mana miadzo enumake.”
Pray then for me to the Lord, and let him cause the thunderings of God to cease, and the hail and the fire, and I will send you forth and you shall remain no longer.
29 Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, ne medo le dua me teti ko la, make nye abɔwo me do ɖe Yehowa gbɔ, ekema dziɖegbe la kple kpetsi la nu atso. Esia afia wò be Yehowae le xexea me dzi ɖum.
And Moses said to him, When I shall have departed from the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord, and the thunderings shall cease, and the hail and the rain shall be no longer, that you may know that the earth [is] the Lord's.
30 Ke le wò ŋutɔ kple ŋuwòmewo gome la, menya be fifia gɔ̃ hã la, mieɖoa to Yehowa Mawu o.”
But as for you and your servants, I know that you have not yet feared the Lord.
31 (Kpetsi la gblẽ ɖetifu kple lu o, elabena lu la ɖi, eye ɖetifu la hã ƒo se xoxo hafi,
And the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was advanced, and the flax was seeding.
32 ke lu kple bli ya megblẽ o, elabena woawo metse haɖe o.)
But the wheat and the rye were not struck, for they were late.
33 Ale Mose dzo le Farao gbɔ. Esi wòdo go le dua me la, edo eƒe asiwo ɖe dziƒo na Yehowa. Dziɖegbe kple kpetsi la nu tso, eye tsi hã dzudzɔ dzadza.
And Moses went forth from Pharao out of the city, and stretched out his hands to the Lord, and the thunders ceased and the hail, and the rain did not drop on the earth.
34 Esi Farao kpɔ be tsidzadza, kpetsi kple dziɖegbe la tɔ la, egawɔ nu vɔ̃; eya kple eƒe dumegãwo sẽ woƒe dzi me.
And when Pharao saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders ceased, he continued to sin; and [he] hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants.
35 Ale Farao ƒe dzi me gasẽ, eye wògbe asiɖeɖe le Israelviwo ŋu abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe to Mose dzi ene.
And the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not send forth the children of Israel, as the Lord said to Moses.
