U-Eksodusi 13
1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 Ngingcwelisela lonke izibulo, elivula loba yisiphi isizalo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, elomuntu lelenyamazana, lingelami.
“Te Israelfoɔ mmammarima ne aboa biara abakan ho ma me; wɔn nyinaa yɛ me dea.”
3 UMozisi wasesithi ebantwini: Khumbulani lolusuku eliphume ngalo eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili; ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi ilikhuphile lapha. Njalo kakungadliwa isinkwa esilemvubelo.
Na Mose ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ yɛ ɛda a ɛsɛ sɛ mokae ɛda biara—ɛda a motu firii Misraim asase a na moyɛ nkoa wɔ so no. Awurade ayɛ anwanwadeɛ akɛseɛ bebree akyerɛ mo. Enti, monkae sɛ, sɛ afe duru na moredi afahyɛ yi a, mommfa mmɔreka mfra mo aduane; na mommfa bi nkɔ mo afie nso mu koraa.
4 Ngalolusuku liyaphuma ngenyanga kaAbhibhi.
Afe biara mu Abib bosome awieeɛ (bɛyɛ Ɔbenem awieeɛ), monkae saa atutena yi.
5 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani lamaHethi lamaAmori lamaHivi lamaJebusi, afunga kuboyihlo ukukunika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, uzagcina linkonzo ngalinyanga.
Awurade de mo baa Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Amorifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ nsase a ɛwoɔ ne nufosuo sen so a ɔkaa ho ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma mo no so.
6 Insuku eziyisikhombisa uzakudla izinkwa ezingelamvubelo, langosuku lwesikhombisa kuzakuba khona umkhosi eNkosini.
Mobɛdi burodo a mmɔreka nni mu nko ara nnanson. Na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, monto ɛpono kɛseɛ mma Awurade.
7 Izinkwa ezingelamvubelo zizadliwa ngensuku eziyisikhombisa; njalo kakuyikubonwa kuwe okuvutshelweyo lemvubelo kayiyikubonwa kuwe kuwo wonke umngcele wakho.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara kora mmɔreka wɔ ne fie anaa mo asase no ahyeɛ so baabiara.
8 Njalo uzatshela indodana yakho ngalolosuku usithi: Ngenxa yalokho iNkosi eyakwenza kimi ekuphumeni kwami eGibhithe.
Ɛduru afirinhyia na moredi nna yi a, monkyerɛ mo mma deɛ enti a moredi saa afahyɛ no. Ɛyɛ afahyɛ a mode bɛkae deɛ Awurade yɛ maa mo ɛberɛ a motu firii Misraim asase so no.
9 Futhi kuzakuba kuwe luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lesikhumbuzo phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ukuze umlayo weNkosi ube semlonyeni wakho; ngoba ngesandla esilamandla iNkosi ikukhuphile eGibhithe.
Saa afe biara mu nnawɔtwe afahyɛ yi, ɛnyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ te sɛ agyiraeɛhyɛdeɛ a wɔde abɔ mo nsa ho anaa mo moma so sɛ nkae adeɛ. Momma Awurade mmara ntena mo anom, ɛfiri sɛ tumi kɛseɛ na ɔde yii mo firii Misraim.
10 Ngakho uzagcina lesisimiso ngesikhathi saso esimisiweyo iminyaka ngeminyaka.
Afe biara, ɛrekɔ Abib (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) awieeɛ no, monni afahyɛ yi.
11 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani, njengokufunga kwayo kuwe lakuboyihlo, isikunike lona,
“Sɛ Awurade de mo ba asase a ɔhyɛɛ mo agyanom ho bɔ tete no a Kanaanfoɔ te so seesei no so a, monkae sɛ,
12 uzakwehlukanisela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo; lalo lonke izibulo lomqegu wezifuyo olazo, amaduna azakuba ngaweNkosi.
mo mmammarima a wɔyɛ mmakan nyinaa ne nyɛmmoa mmakan a wɔyɛ mmarima no nyinaa yɛ Awurade dea. Enti momfa mma no.
13 Lalo lonke izibulo likababhemi uzalihlenga ngewundlu; kodwa uba ungalihlengi, uzalephula intamo; lalo lonke izibulo lomuntu phakathi kwamadodana akho uzalihlenga.
Motumi de odwan ba anaa abirekyie ba kɔsesa afunumu ba abakan. Na sɛ woyɛ wʼadwene sɛ woremfa afunumu no nni nsesa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wobu afunumu no kɔn mu kum no. Nanso mo mmammarima abakan deɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ motɔ wɔn ti.
14 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho indodana yakho ikubuza ngesikhathi esizayo isithi: Kuyini lokhu? Uzakuthi kuyo: Ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili.
“Na sɛ daakye bi mo mma bisa mo sɛ, ‘Yeinom nyinaa ase ne sɛn a, monka nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ, Awurade nam anwanwadeɛ akɛseɛ a ɔyɛeɛ so na ɔyii yɛn firii nkoasom mu wɔ Misraim.
15 Ngoba kwathi uFaro ezenza lukhuni ukuthi asiyekele sihambe, iNkosi yabulala lonke izibulo elizweni leGibhithe, kusukela kuzibulo lomuntu kusiya kuzibulo lezifuyo; ngakho ngiyahlabela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo okuduna; kodwa lonke izibulo lamadodana ami ngiyalihlenga.
Na Farao mpɛ sɛ ɔma yɛn ɛkwan ma yɛkɔ enti, Awurade kumm mmammarima ne mmoanini a wɔyɛ mmakan a wɔwɔ Misraim asase so nyinaa. Ɛno enti na yɛde mmammarima a wɔyɛ mmakan rema Awurade yi, nanso nnipa mmammarima mmakan no deɛ, wɔtɔ wɔn ti.’
16 Njalo kuzakuba luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lamafilakteriyu phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe.
Meti mu meka bio sɛ, saa afahyɛ yi bɛda mo nso sɛ moyɛ Onyankopɔn mma te sɛ deɛ ɔde nʼagyiraeɛhyɛdeɛ abɔ mo moma so sɛ ɔdedea. Ɛyɛ nkaedeɛ a ɛkyerɛ sɛ Awurade nam ne tumi kɛseɛ no so na ɔde yii yɛn firii Misraim.”
17 Kwasekusithi uFaro eseyekele abantu bahambe, uNkulunkulu kabakhokhelanga ngendlela yelizwe lamaFilisti, lanxa yayiseduze; ngoba uNkulunkulu wathi: Hlezi abantu bazisole nxa bebona impi, babuyele eGibhithe.
Akyire no, Farao maa nnipa no kɔeɛ. Ɛwom sɛ na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa Filistifoɔ asase a ɛkwan no da mu tee kɔsi Bɔhyɛ Asase no so, nanso Onyankopɔn ma wɔfaa ɛkwan foforɔ so. Deɛ enti a Onyankopɔn ma wɔfaa ɛkwan foforɔ so no ne sɛ, na ɔsusu sɛ, ɛwom sɛ wɔkura wɔn akodeɛ deɛ, nanso sɛ wɔkɔ na wɔkɔhyia akodie bi a, wɔn aba mu bɛbu ama wɔasane aba Misraim.
18 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wababhodisa abantu ngendlela yenkangala yoLwandle oluBomvu. Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenyuka besuka elizweni leGibhithe behlomile.
Enti, Onyankopɔn dii wɔn anim de wɔn faa ɛserɛ so kɔntɔnkyekwan a ɛrekɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho no so.
19 UMozisi wasethatha amathambo kaJosefa wahamba lawo, ngoba wayebafungisile lokubafungisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Isibili uNkulunkulu uzalihambela; futhi kalibokwenyusa lapha amathambo ami lihambe lawo.
Mose rekɔ no, ɔfaa Yosef nnompe de kaa ne ho kɔeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na Yosef ama Israel mma aka Onyankopɔn ntam sɛ, “Sɛ ɔreyi wɔn afiri Misraim a, wɔde ne nnompe bɛkɔ bi, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔnim sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛyi wɔn afiri Misraim asase so.”
20 Basebesuka eSukothi, bamisa inkamba eEthama, ekucineni kwenkangala.
Wɔfiri Sukot no, wɔkɔkyeree sraban wɔ Etam ɛserɛ no ano.
21 INkosi yasihamba phambi kwabo emini ngensika yeyezi ukubakhokhela endleleni, lebusuku ngensika yomlilo ukubakhanyisela, ukuze bahambe emini lebusuku.
Awurade de omununkum kyerɛɛ wɔn ɛkwan awia na ɔde ogya nso kyerɛɛ wɔn ɛkwan anadwo. Enti na wɔtumi tu wɔn kwan no awia ne anadwo nyinaa.
22 Kayiyisusanga insika yeyezi emini, lensika yomlilo ebusuku, phambi kwabantu.
Ɛberɛ biara na wɔhunu omununkum ne ogya no.
