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.
Then the LORD said unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him: Thus saith the LORD, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
2 Ne miegbe asiɖeɖe le wo ŋu, eye miezi wo dzi la,
For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,
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 is upon thy cattle which are in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the herds, and upon the flocks; there shall be a very grievous murrain.
4 Gake Yehowa ade vovo Israelviwo kple Egiptetɔwo ƒe lãhawo dome, ale be Israelviwo ƒe lã aɖeke maku o.’”
And the LORD shall make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; and there shall nothing die of all that belongeth to the children of Israel.'
5 Yehowa ɖo ɣeyiɣi, eye wògblɔ be, “Etsɔ si gbɔna la, Yehowa awɔ nu sia le anyigba sia dzi.”
And the LORD appointed a set time, saying: 'Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in 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 that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died; but of the cattle of the children of Israel 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 Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, 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 said unto Moses and unto Aaron: 'Take to you handfuls of soot of the furnace, and let Moses throw it heavenward in the sight of Pharaoh.
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 it shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man and upon beast, throughout 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.
And they took soot of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses threw it up heavenward; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man and upon beast.
11 Akunyawɔlawo mete ŋu tɔ ɖe Mose ŋkume o, le ƒoƒoeawo ta, elabena ƒoƒoeawo te Egiptetɔwo katã.
And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians.
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 the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses.
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 unto Moses: 'Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him: Thus saith the LORD, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, 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 I will this time send all My plagues upon thy person, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like Me 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.
Surely now I had put forth My hand, and smitten thee and thy people with pestilence, and thou hadst been cut off from 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.
But in very deed for this cause have I made thee to stand, to show thee My power, and that My name may be declared throughout all the earth.
17 Ke ègatsi tsitre ɖe nye ameawo ŋu kokoko, eye nègbe be yemaɖe asi le wo ŋu woadzo o,
As yet exaltest thou thyself against My people, that thou wilt not 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, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
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 therefore send, hasten in thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; for every man and beast that shall be found in the field, and shall not be brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die.'
20 Yehowa ƒe nya siawo do ŋɔdzi na Egiptetɔ aɖewo ale gbegbe be wokplɔ woƒe lãwo kple kluviwo de xɔ me.
He that feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses;
21 Ke ame siwo mebu Yehowa ƒe nya nanekee o la gblẽ woƒe lãwo ɖe gbedzi.
and he that regarded not the word of the LORD left his servants and his cattle in the field.
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 unto Moses: 'Stretch forth thy hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.'
23 Ale Mose do asi ɖe dzi, eye Yehowa ɖo dziɖegbe kple kpetsi kple dzikedzo ɖa.
And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven; and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down unto the earth; and the LORD caused to hail upon 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 fire flashing up amidst the hail, very grievous, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
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 smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and broke every tree of 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 Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.
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 Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto 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.”
Entreat the LORD, and let there be enough of these mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay 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 unto him: 'As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread forth my hands unto the LORD; the thunders shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest 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 thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear the LORD God.' —
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 smitten; for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was in bloom.
32 ke lu kple bli ya megblẽ o, elabena woawo metse haɖe o.)
But the wheat and the spelt were not smitten; for they ripen 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 out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread forth his hands unto the LORD; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon 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 Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and 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 Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the children of Israel go; as the LORD had spoken by Moses.
