1 Awo ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu ennya mu mwezi gwe gumu, Abayisirayiri ne bakuŋŋaana ne basiiba, nga bambadde ebibukutu era nga beesiize enfuufu ku mitwe gyabwe.

Bosome Tisri (bɛyɛ Ahinime) ɛda a ɛtɔ so aduasa baako no, ɔmanfoɔ no boaa wɔn ho ano, dii mmuada, firaa ayitoma, tuu mfuturo petee wɔn tirim.

2 Ab’ezzadde lya Isirayiri beeyawula ku bannamawanga bonna, ne bayimirira mu bifo byabwe ne baatula ebibi byabwe n’obutali butuukirivu bwa bajjajjaabwe.

Ɛberɛ a wɔreka wɔn ankasa bɔne ne wɔn agyanom bɔne no, Israelfoɔ no twee wɔn ho firii ananafoɔ nyinaa ho.

3 Ne bayimirira we baali ne basoma mu Kitabo ky’Amateeka ga Mukama Katonda waabwe, okumala essaawa ssatu, n’oluvannyuma ne baatula era ne basinza Mukama Katonda waabwe okumala essaawa endala nga ssatu.

Wɔkenkan Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, mmara nwoma no den bɛyɛ sɛ nnɔnhwere mmiɛnsa kyerɛɛ wɔn. Afei, wɔde nnɔnhwere mmiɛnsa bio kekaa wɔn bɔne nnidisoɔ nnidisoɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a na wɔresom Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn.

4 Bano be Baleevi abaali bayimiridde ku madaala: Yesuwa, ne Baani, ne Kadumyeri, ne Sebaniya, ne Bunni, ne Serebiya, ne Baani ne Kenani, abaakoowoolanga Mukama Katonda waabwe mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka.

Na Lewifoɔ no bi gyina ntrapoe so reteam frɛ Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn. Saa nnipa no ne Yesua, Bani, Kadmiel, Sebania, Buni, Serebia, Bani ne Kenani.

5 Awo Abaleevi, Yesuwa, ne Kadumyeri, ne Baani, ne Kasabuneya, ne Serebiya, ne Kodiya, ne Sebaniya ne Pesakiya ne boogera nti, “Muyimirire, mwebaze Mukama Katonda wammwe ow’emirembe n’emirembe.” “Erinnya lyo ligulumizibwe, litiibwe era ligulumizibwe okukira okusinza kwonna n’okutendereza kwonna.

Afei, Lewifoɔ ntuanofoɔ a wɔne Yesua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hasabnia, Serebia, Hodia, Sebania ne Petahia teaam frɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ no sɛ, “Monsɔre nkamfo Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔte hɔ afebɔɔ!” Wɔtoaa so sɛ, “Monkamfo ne din kronkron no. Ɛso sene sɛdeɛ yɛbɛtumi adwene anaa deɛ yɛbɛka.

6 Ggwe wekka, ggwe Mukama, era ggwe wakola eggulu, n’eggulu erya waggulu, n’eggye lyalyo lyonna, n’ensi n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ennyanja n’ebigirimu byonna. Buli kintu gw’okiwa obulamu, era n’eggye ery’omu ggulu likusinza.

Wo nko ara ne Awurade. Wo na wobɔɔ ɔsoro ne ɔsoro mu ɔsoro ne nsoromma nyinaa. Wo na wobɔɔ asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ so nyinaa ne ɛpo ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa. Wo na wokora biribiara so ma no nkwa, na ɔsoro abɔfoɔ nyinaa som wo.

“Woyɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn a woyii Abram firii Ur a ɛwɔ Kaldea asase so, sane too no edin Abraham.

8 Walaba omutima gwe nga mwesigwa gy’oli, n’okola naye endagaano, okuwa bazzukulu be ensi ey’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abamoli, n’Abaperezi, n’Abayebusi, n’Abagirugaasi; era otuukiriza ekyo kye wasuubiza kubanga oli mutuukirivu.

Ɔdii wo nokorɛ no, wo ne no yɛɛ apam sɛ, wode Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Perisifoɔ Yebusifoɔ ne Girgasifoɔ asase bɛma ɔne nʼasefoɔ. Na wodii wo bɔhyɛ so, ɛfiri sɛ, daa wodi wʼasɛm so.

9 “Walaba okubonaabona kwa bajjajjaffe mu Misiri, n’owulira okukaaba kwabwe ku lubalama lw’Ennyanja Emyufu.

“Wohunuu amane ne awerɛhoɔ a yɛn agyanom kɔɔ mu wɔ Misraim, na wotee wɔn su firi Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho.

10 Waweereza obubonero obwewuunyisa n’ebyamagero eri Falaawo, n’eri abakungu be, n’eri abantu be bonna ab’ensi ye, kubanga wamanya engeri Abayisirayiri gye baajoogebwamu. Weekolera erinnya eryayatiikirira, n’okutuusa leero.

Woyɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛyɛ hu ne anwanwadeɛ kyerɛɛ Farao, nʼasomfoɔ ne ne manfoɔ nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, na wonim nhyɛsoɔ ɛkwan a na Misraimfoɔ no de wɔn fa so. Wowɔ animuonyam a ahyeta a ani mpa so da.

11 Wayawula mu mazzi g’ennyanja n’ogalaza ebbali n’ebbali mu maaso gaabwe, ne bayita wakati mu y’oku lukalu, naye abaali babagoberera wabazaaya mu buziba, ng’ejjinja bwe likasukibwa mu mazzi ag’amaanyi.

12 Emisana wakulemberanga abantu bo n’empagi ey’ekire, era n’ekiro wabakulemberanga n’empagi ey’omuliro okubamulisiza ekkubo lye baali bateekwa okukwata.

Wonam omununkum fadum so dii yɛn agyanom anim awia ne ogya fadum so, dii wɔn anim anadwo sɛdeɛ wɔbɛhunu ɛkwan.

13 “Wava mu ggulu, n’okka ku Lusozi Sinaayi n’oyogera gye bali. Wabawa ebiragiro eby’obwenkanya, n’amateeka ag’amazima, byonna nga birungi.

“Wosianee bepɔ Sinai, kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn firi ɔsoro. Wode mmara a ɛyɛ turodoo ne ahyɛdeɛ a ɛyɛ nokorɛ brɛɛ wɔn.

14 Wabamanyisa Ssabbiiti yo entukuvu, era n’obawa ebiragiro n’amateeka ng’oyita mu muddu wo Musa.

Wokyerɛɛ wɔn mmara a ɛfa wo homeda kronkron ho. Na wonam wo ɔsomfoɔ Mose so hyɛɛ wɔn sɛdeɛ wɔnsi nni wʼahyɛdeɛ ne wo mmara no nyinaa so.

15 Bwe baalumwa enjala wabawa emmere okuva mu ggulu, ne bwe baalumwa ennyonta n’obawa amazzi okuva mu lwazi; n’obagamba bagende balye ensi gye wabalayiririra.

Ɛberɛ a ɛkɔm de wɔn no, womaa wɔn burodo a ɛfiri ɔsoro ne nsuo a ɛfiri ɔbotan mu wɔ ɛberɛ a sukɔm de wɔn no. Wohyɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnkɔfa asase a woaka ho ntam sɛ wode bɛma wɔn no.

16 “Naye bo bajjajjaffe ne beekulumbaza ne bakakanyaza ensingo zaabwe ne batagondera biragiro byo.

“Nanso, yɛn agyanom yɛɛ ahantan ne asoɔden, na wɔanni wʼahyɛdeɛ so.

17 Baagaana okukuwuliriza, ne batassaayo mwoyo okujjukira ebyamagero bye wakolera mu bo. Baakakanyaza ensingo zaabwe, era mu bujeemu bwabwe ne balonda omukulembeze okuddayo mu buddu bwabwe. Naye ggwe Katonda asonyiwa, ow’ekisa era ajjudde okusaasira, alwawo okusunguwala era ajjudde okwagala, tewabaleka.

Wɔantie, na wɔankae wʼanwanwadeɛ a woyɛ maa wɔn no. Mmom, wɔyɛɛ dɔm yii ntuanoni sɛ ɔnsane mfa wɔn nkɔ wɔn nkoasom mu wɔ Misraim. Nanso, woyɛ ɔfakyɛfoɔ, ahummɔborɔ ne ɔdomfoɔ Onyankopɔn a wo bo kyɛre fu na wʼadɔeɛ dɔɔso. Woannyaa wɔn

18 Ne bwe beebumbira ennyana ensanuuse ne boogera nti, ‘Ono ye katonda wammwe eyabaggya mu Misiri,’ ne bakola n’ebitasaana bingi, mu kusaasira kwo okungi tewabaleka mu ddungu.

19 “Emisana, empagi ey’ekire teyalekerawo kubaluŋŋamya mu kkubo lyabwe, newaakubadde ekiro, empagi ey’omuliro nayo teyalekerawo kubaakira mu kkubo lye baali bateekwa okukwata.

“Nanso, wo mmɔborɔhunu mu, woannyaa wɔn amma wɔanwuwu wɔ ɛserɛ no so. Omununkum fadum no kɔɔ so dii wɔn anim awia, na ogya fadum no kyerɛɛ wɔn ɛkwan anadwo.

20 Wabawa Omwoyo omulungi okubayigiriza, so tewabammanga manu okulya, era wabawanga n’amazzi okumalawo ennyonta yaabwe.

21 Wabalabirira okumala emyaka amakumi ana mu ddungu, ne batabulwa kintu, so n’engoye zaabwe tezaayulika newaakubadde ebigere byabwe okuzimba.

Wohwɛɛ wɔn so mfeɛ aduanan wɔ ɛserɛ so. Saa ɛberɛ no, biribiara anhia wɔn. Wɔn ntadeɛ antete, na wɔn anan ase antaatae.

22 “Wabawa obwakabaka n’amawanga, n’obawa na buli nsonda ey’ebyalo. Baalya ensi ya Sikoni kabaka w’e Kesuboni, n’ensi ya Ogi kabaka w’e Basani.

“Woboaa yɛn agyanom, ma wɔdii ahemman akɛseɛ ne aman bebree so, na wode wo nkurɔfoɔ duaa aman no afanan nyinaa so. Wɔfaa ɔhene Sihon a ɔfiri Hesbon ne Basanhene Og asase no nyinaa.

23 Wayaza abazzukulu baabwe ne baba bangi ng’emmunyeenye ez’omu ggulu, n’obaleeta mu nsi gye wagamba bajjajjaabwe okuyingira bagirye.

Womaa wɔn asefoɔ dɔɔso sɛ ɔsoro nsoromma, na wode wɔn baa asase a woahyɛ wɔn agyanom ho bɔ no so.

Wɔkɔfaa asase no. Wobrɛɛ aman no nyinaa ase wɔ wɔn anim. Na, mpo, ahemfo ne Kanaanfoɔ a wɔtenaa asase no so no tumi saeɛ. Wo nkurɔfoɔ ne wɔn dii no sɛdeɛ wɔpɛ.

25 Baawamba ebibuga ebyaliko bbugwe n’ensi enjimu, ne batwala amayumba agaali gajudde ebintu ebirungi ebya buli ngeri, enzizi ezasimibwa edda, n’ennimiro ez’emizabbibu, n’ennimiro ez’emizeeyituuni, n’emiti egy’ebibala mingi nnyo. Baalya ne bakkuta era ne banyirira, n’okubasanyusa n’obasanyusanga olw’obulungi bwo.

Yɛn agyanom faa nkuro a wɔabɔ ho ban ne nsase bereɛ no. Wɔfaa afie a nnepa wɔ mu ne nsuseneeɛ a wɔatutu dada no ne bobefuo ne ngofuo ne nnuabafuo no bebree. Enti, wɔdidiiɛ ara kɔsii sɛ wɔdodɔreeɛ, yɛɛ akɛseɛ, na wɔn ani gyee wɔn ho wɔ wo nhyira mu.

26 “Naye tebaakugondera, baakujeemera ne batagoberera mateeka go. Batta bannabbi bo, abaababuuliriranga okudda gy’oli; baakola ebitasaana.

“Nanso, yeinom nyinaa akyi no, wɔyɛɛ asoɔden, yɛɛ dɔm tiaa wo. Wɔtoo wo mmara no guu nkyɛn. Wɔkunkumm adiyifoɔ no a wɔhyɛɛ wɔn nkuran sɛ wɔnsane mmra wo nkyɛn no, na wɔkaa abususɛm a ɛyɛ hu.

27 Kyewava obawaayo eri abalabe baabwe ne bababonyaabonya. Naye nga babonaabona bwe batyo, ne bakukaabirira, n’obawulira okuva mu ggulu, n’olw’okusaasira kwo okungi ennyo n’obaweereza abaabanunula era abaabalokola okuva mu mukono gw’abalabe baabwe.

28 “Naye bwe baafunanga emirembe, baddangamu okukola ebibi mu maaso go. Kyewava obawaayo mu mukono gw’abalabe baabwe, babafuge. Bwe baakukaabiriranga nate, ng’obawulira okuva mu ggulu, n’obalokolanga emirundi mingi ng’okusaasira kwo bwe kuli.

29 “Wabalabula okuddamu okugoberera amateeka go, naye ne baba b’amalala, ne batagondera biragiro byo. Baajeemera ebiragiro, ebireetera omuntu obulamu bw’aba ng’abigondedde. Baakunyooma ne bakuvaako, ne bakakanyaza ensingo zaabwe, ne bagaana okuwulira.

“Wobɔɔ wɔn kɔkɔ sɛ, wɔnsane mmɛdi wo mmara no so nanso, wɔyɛɛ ahomasoɔ ne asoɔden a wɔanni wʼahyɛdeɛ no so. Wɔanni wo mmara a sɛ nnipa di so a, wɔnam so bɛnya nkwa. Nanso, wɔnam ahomasoɔ so danee wɔn akyi kyerɛɛ wo a wɔampɛ sɛ wɔbɛtie wo.

30 Wabagumiikiriza okumala emyaka mingi, Omwoyo wo n’abayigirizanga ng’ayita mu bannabbi bo, naye ne batassaayo mwoyo, kyewava obawaayo mu mukono gw’abamawanga agabaliraanye.

31 Naye olw’okusaasira kwo okungi, tewabaviirako ddala so tewabaleka, kubanga oli Katonda ow’ekisa era ajjudde okusaasira.
