< U-Eksodusi 14 >
1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 Tshela abantwana bakoIsrayeli ukuthi baphenduke, bamise inkamba phambi kwePi-Hahirothi, phakathi kweMigidoli lolwandle, phambi kweBhali-Zefoni, maqondana layo limise inkamba elwandle.
“Ka kyerɛ nnipa no na wɔmman mfa Pihahirot a ɛwɔ Migdol ne po no ntam a ɛne Baal-Sefon di nhwɛanim no. Sɛ wodu hɔ a, wonsi wɔn ntamadan wɔ mpoano hɔ.
3 Njalo uFaro uzakuthi ngabantwana bakoIsrayeli: Badidekile elizweni, inkangala ibavalele.
Sɛ wɔyɛ saa a, Farao besusuw sɛ, ‘Saa Israelfo no aka sare no ne po no ntam.’
4 Njalo ngizayenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro, ukuthi axotshane labo, ngibe sengidunyiswa kuFaro lebuthweni lakhe lonke, ukuze amaGibhithe azi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi. Basebesenza njalo.
Na mɛsan apirim Farao koma bio ama wataa mo. Mayɛ saa nhyehyɛe yi, sɛnea ɛbɛma manya anuonyam ne nidi wɔ Farao ne nʼasraafo mu na ama Misraimfo no nso ahu sɛ, mene Awurade no.” Enti wosii ntamadan wɔ faako a wɔkyerɛɛ wɔn hɔ no.
5 Kwathi sekubikiwe enkosini yeGibhithe ukuthi abantu babalekile, inhliziyo kaFaro lenhliziyo yenceku zakhe yaguquka mayelana labantu, basebesithi: Kuyini lokho esikwenzileyo, ukuthi siyekele uIsrayeli ahambe angasisebenzeli?
Nnansa akyi a Misraimhene no tee sɛ Israelfo no abɔ wɔn tirim sɛ wɔrensan mma Misraim bio na mmom kɔ ara na wɔrekɔ no, Farao ne ne dɔm koma sɔree bio. Wobisae se, “Dɛn na yɛayɛ yi? Yɛama Israelfo no kwan ma wɔkɔ ama yɛahwere wɔn som!”
6 Wasebophela inqola yakhe, wathatha abantu bakhe laye.
Enti Farao faa ne teaseɛnam dii nʼasraafo no anim taa wɔn.
7 Wasethatha inqola ezingamakhulu ayisithupha ezikhethiweyo lazo zonke inqola zeGibhithe lenduna eziphezu kwazo zonke.
Ɔmaa Misraim apɔnkɔsotefo dɔm a wɔn dodow yɛ ahansia ne apɔnkɔ foforo bi a asraafo tete wɔn so ka wɔn.
8 INkosi yasiyenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, wasexotshana labantwana bakoIsrayeli, kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli baphuma ngesandla esiphakemeyo.
Farao taa Israelfo no, efisɛ na wɔde Misraimfo agyapade bebree kɔ.
9 Kodwa amaGibhithe asexotshana labo, amabhiza wonke, izinqola zikaFaro, labagadi bakhe bamabhiza, lebutho lakhe, abafica bemise inkamba elwandle, eceleni kwePi-Hahirothi phambi kweBhali-Zefoni.
Farao de nʼapɔnkɔdɔm nyinaa taa Israelfo no bɛtoo wɔn sɛ wɔasisi wɔn ntamadan wɔ Pihahirot mpoano wɔ Baal-Sefon anim.
10 Kwathi uFaro esesondele, abantwana bakoIsrayeli baphakamisa amehlo abo, khangela-ke, amaGibhithe ehamba ebalandela, basebesesaba kakhulu. Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebekhala eNkosini;
Bere a Farao asraafo no rebɛn no, Israelfo no huu wɔn sɛ wɔde mmirika reba enti wɔn koma tui, na wosu frɛɛ Awurade sɛ ɔmmoa wɔn.
11 bathi kuMozisi: Kungoba kwakungekho mangcwaba yini eGibhithe ukuthi usithethe ukuze sifele enkangala? Kuyini lokhu okwenze kithi, ukusikhupha eGibhithe?
Ɛmaa wɔn ani beree Mose so bisaa no se, “Wode yɛn aba sare yi so sɛ yemmewuwu wɔ ha, efisɛ nna nni Misraim a sɛ yewuwu a wobesie yɛn wɔ mu ana? Adɛn nti na woma yetu fii Misraim?
12 Kayisilo leli ilizwi esalikhuluma kuwe eGibhithe sisithi: Siyekele ukuthi sisebenzele amaGibhithe? Ngoba bekuzakuba ngcono kithi ukuthi sisebenzele amaGibhithe kulokuthi sifele enkangala.
Bere a yɛwɔ nkoasom mu no, yɛanka ankyerɛ wo se ma yɛmpɛ yɛn baabi ntena? Yɛkae se yɛpɛ sɛ yɛbɛhyɛ nkoasom ase wɔ Misraim sen sɛ yebewu agu sare so ha.”
13 UMozisi wasesithi ebantwini: Lingesabi; manini liqine, libone usindiso lweNkosi ezalenzela lona lamuhla; ngoba amaGibhithe eliwabonayo lamuhla, kalisayikuwabona futhi kuze kube laphakade.
Nanso Mose ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no se, “Munnsuro. Munnyina pintinn na mubehu anwonwakwan a Awurade nam so begye mo nnɛ. Misraimfo a muhu wɔn nnɛ yi, morenhu wɔn bio.
14 INkosi izalilwela, lina-ke lizathula.
Awurade bɛko ama mo; montɛm dinn kɛkɛ!”
15 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Ukhalelani kimi? Tshela abantwana bakoIsrayeli ukuthi baqhubekele phambili.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Adɛn nti na wusu frɛ me? Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no na wɔnkɔ wɔn anim.
16 Wena-ke, phakamisa intonga yakho, welulele isandla sakho phezu kolwandle uludabule, ukuze abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahambe phakathi kolwandle emhlabathini owomileyo.
Fa wo pema no. Fa kyerɛ nsu no so na po no mu bɛpae ama ɔkwan ada mu ma Israelfo no afa asase wosee so.
17 Mina-ke, khangela, ngizayenza lukhuni inhliziyo yamaGibhithe ukuze angene ngemva kwabo. Njalo ngizadunyiswa ngoFaro langebutho lakhe lonke, ngezinqola zakhe, langabagadi bamabhiza bakhe.
Mepirim Misraimfo no koma ama wɔataa mo na di a medi Farao ne ne dɔm so no bɛma moahu mʼanuonyam.
18 Njalo amaGibhithe azakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi sengidunyiswe ngoFaro, ngezinqola zakhe langabagadi bamabhiza bakhe.
Na Misraimfo nyinaa behu sɛ, mene Awurade.”
19 Njalo ingilosi kaNkulunkulu eyayihamba phambi kwebutho lakoIsrayeli yasuka yayahamba ngemva kwabo; lensika yeyezi yasuka phambi kwabo, yema ngemva kwabo,
Onyankopɔn bɔfo a odi Israelfo anim no twee ne ho bedii Israelfo no akyi. Na omununkum dum no nso bedii Israelfo no akyi.
20 yasisiza phakathi kwebutho lamaGibhithe lebutho lakoIsrayeli. Njalo yayiliyezi lobumnyama, kodwa yakhanyisa ubusuku, okokuthi elinye kalisondelanga kwelinye ubusuku bonke.
Ebetwaa Israelfo no ne Misraimfo no ntam. Na anadwo no, ɛdan ogya maa sum tɔɔ Misraimfo no so maa ne hann no kyerɛɛ Israelfo no kwan. Enti Misraimfo no anhu Israelfo no akyi kwan.
21 UMozisi waseselulela isandla sakhe phezu kolwandle; iNkosi yalwenza ulwandle lwahamba ngomoya olamandla wempumalanga ubusuku bonke, yenza ulwandle lwaba ngumhlabathi owomileyo; amanzi asesehlukaniswa.
Mose teɛɛ ne nsa wɔ po no so, na anadwo no nyinaa Awurade de apuei mframa dennen maa po no san nʼakyi maa asase no yɛɛ wosee.
22 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebengena olwandle emhlabathini owomileyo; njalo amanzi aba ngumduli kubo ngakwesokunene sabo langakwesokhohlo sabo.
Enti Israelfo no faa po kwan a mu wosee no so. Na nsu no yɛɛ afasu wɔ benkum ne nifa maa wɔn.
23 AmaGibhithe asexotshana labo, angena ngemva kwabo, wonke amabhiza kaFaro, inqola zakhe labagadi bamabhiza bakhe, phakathi kolwandle.
Misraimfo no nso ne Farao apɔnkɔ, nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔsotefo no tiw wɔn koduu po no mfimfini.
24 Kwasekusithi ngomlindo wokusa, iNkosi yakhangela phansi ebuthweni lamaGibhithe isensikeni yomlilo leyeyezi, yalidunga ibutho lamaGibhithe;
Na anɔpahema no, Awurade de ogya ne omununkum dum no too Misraimdɔm no so maa wɔn ho yeraw wɔn.
25 yakhupha amavili ezinqola zawo ukuze zihambe nzima, aze athi amaGibhithe: Asibalekele ubuso bukaIsrayeli, ngoba iNkosi iyabalwela imelene lamaGibhithe.
Wɔn nteaseɛnam no nan tutui, enti na wontumi nkɔ bio. Enti Misraimfo no kae se, “Momma yenguan mfi Israelfo anim, efisɛ Awurade reko ama wɔn na yɛn de, ɔreko atia yɛn.”
26 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelulela isandla sakho phezu kolwandle ukuze amanzi abuyele phezu kwamaGibhithe, phezu kwenqola zawo laphezu kwabagadi bawo bamabhiza.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa wɔ po no so, na nsu no nsan mmra Misraimfo ne wɔn nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔsotefo no so.”
27 UMozisi waseselulela isandla sakhe phezu kolwandle; ulwandle lwaselubuyela endaweni yalo eyejwayelekileyo emadabukakusa; amaGibhithe asebalekela kulo; iNkosi yasiwathintithela amaGibhithe phakathi kolwandle.
Mose yɛɛ saa, na ade kyee anɔpa no, po no san nʼakyi bɛsen sɛnea na ɛte. Misraimfo no pɛɛ sɛ woguan, nanso Awurade maa nsu no faa wɔn.
28 Amanzi asebuyela, asibekela izinqola labagadi bamabhiza, lebutho lonke likaFaro elalingene olwandle ngemva kwabo; kakusalanga loyedwa kubo.
Nsu no kataa kwan no ne nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔsotefo no nyinaa so. Farao asraafo dodow a wɔfaa po no mu taa Israelfo no nso, anka ɔbaako koraa.
29 Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahamba phezu komhlabathi owomileyo phakathi kolwandle; njalo amanzi aba ngumduli kubo ngakwesokunene sabo langakwesokhohlo sabo.
Israelfo no nantew faa asase wosee a nsu yɛ ɔfasu wɔ benkum ne nifa no so.
30 Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uIsrayeli ngalolosuku esandleni samaGibhithe; njalo uIsrayeli wabona amaGibhithe efile ekhunjini lolwandle.
Saa da no Awurade gyee Israelfo fii Misraimfo nsam. Na Israelfo no huu Misraimfo no sɛ wɔawuwu deda mpoano.
31 UIsrayeli wasebona amandla amakhulu iNkosi eyawenzayo kumaGibhithe. Abantu basebeyesaba iNkosi, bakholwa eNkosini, lakuMozisi inceku yayo.
Bere a Israelfo huu tumi a Awurade ada no adi de atia Misraimfo no, wosuroo Awurade, na wogyee Awurade ne nʼakoa Mose dii.
