U-Eksodusi 9
1 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yana kuFaro uthi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamaHebheru, ithi: Yekela abantu bami bahambe ukuthi bangikhonze.
Awurade hyɛɛ Mose se, “San kɔ Farao nkyɛn na kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛnea Awurade a ɔyɛ Hebrifo Nyankopɔn no se ni,’ Ma me nkurɔfo no nkɔ na wɔatumi abɔ afɔre ama me.”
2 Ngoba uba usala ukubayekela bahambe, ulokhu ubabambile,
Sɛ wampene amma wɔn ankɔ a,
3 khangela, isandla seNkosi sizakuba phezu kwezifuyo zakho ezisegangeni, phezu kwamabhiza, phezu kwabobabhemi, phezu kwamakamela, phezu kwenkomo laphezu kwezimvu, umatshayabhuqe wesifo onzima kakhulu.
Onyankopɔn nsa de ɔyaredɔm bɛba abekum mo apɔnkɔ, mo mfurum, mo yoma, mo anantwi, mo nguan ne mo mmirekyi nyinaa.
4 Kodwa iNkosi izakwenza umehluko phakathi kwezifuyo zakoIsrayeli lezifuyo zeGibhithe, kuze kuthi kakuyikufa lutho kukho konke okwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Nanso Awurade de nsonoe bɛto Israelfo mmoa ne Misraimfo mmoa ntam. Israelfo mmoa de, ɔbaako mpo renwu.
5 INkosi yasimisa isikhathi esimisiweyo, isithi: Kusasa iNkosi izakwenza linto elizweni.
Awurade ahyɛ bere pɔtee na ɔkae se, Ɔkyena, Awurade bɛyɛ eyi wɔ asase no so.
6 INkosi yayenza-ke linto kusisa; lazo zonke izifuyo zeGibhithe zafa; kodwa kakufanga lesisodwa ezifuyweni zabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Na ade kyee no, nyɛmmoa a wɔwɔ Misraim no wuwui, nanso Israelfo no ayɛmmoa baako mpo koraa anwu.
7 UFaro wasethuma, khangela-ke, kakufanga ngitsho lesisodwa ezifuyweni zakoIsrayeli. Kodwa inhliziyo kaFaro yaba nzima, kasiyekelanga isizwe sihambe.
Farao somaa nnipa kɔɔ Israel kɔhwɛɛ sɛ ampa ara ɛhɔ nyɛmmoa no bi anwu koraa ana. Nnipa no bɛbɔɔ Farao amanneɛ se Israelfo nyɛmmoa baako mpo koraa anwu, nanso nʼadwene ansesa. Wamma nnipa no ankɔ.
8 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi lakuAroni: Zithatheleni izandla zenu ezigcweleyo zomlotha weziko, njalo uMozisi awutsahazele emazulwini phambi kwamehlo kaFaro.
Enti Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se, “Monkɔsaw nso mfi fononoo mu, na Mose ntow mpete wim wɔ Farao anim.
9 Njalo uzakuba luthuli olucolekileyo phezu kwelizwe lonke leGibhithe, njalo luzakuba phezu kwabantu laphezu kwezifuyo lube lithumba eliphihlika amathuthuva elizweni lonke leGibhithe.
Na ɛbɛbɔ apete Misraim asase so nyinaa sɛ mfutuma ama mpɔmpɔnini abobɔ nnipa ne mmoa a wɔwɔ ɔman no mu nyinaa.”
10 Basebethatha umlotha weziko, bema phambi kukaFaro; uMozisi wasewutsahazela emazulwini, waba lithumba eliphihlika amathuthuva ebantwini lezifuyweni.
Enti wɔkɔsaw nso fii fononoo mu de kɔɔ Farao anim, na ɔrehwɛ no, Mose tow petee wim na ɛdan mpɔmpɔnini bobɔɔ nnipa ne mmoa a wɔwɔ Misraim nyinaa.
11 Njalo abalumbi babengeme phambi kukaMozisi ngenxa yamathumba; ngoba amathumba ayephezu kwabalumbi laphezu kwawo wonke amaGibhithe.
Ɛbaa saa no, nkonyaayifo no antumi ne Mose anni asi, efisɛ na mpɔmpɔnini no bi asisi wɔn nyinaa.
12 Kodwa iNkosi yayenza yaba lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro, njalo kazabezwa, njengokutsho kweNkosi kuMozisi.
Nanso Farao pirim ne koma ara, enti wantie asɛm a Awurade nam Mose so ka kyerɛɛ no no.
13 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Vuka ekuseni kakhulu, uzimise phambi kukaFaro uthi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wamaHebheru ithi: Yekela isizwe sami sihambe bangikhonze.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Sɔre kɔ Farao nkyɛn anɔpahema na kɔka kyerɛ no se, Hebrifo Awurade Nyankopɔn no se, Ma me nkurɔfo nkɔsom me,
14 Ngoba ngalesisikhathi ngizathumela zonke inhlupheko zami enhliziyweni yakho laphezu kwenceku zakho laphezu kwesizwe sakho, ukuze wazi ukuthi kakho onjengami emhlabeni wonke.
anyɛ saa a, mede ɔhaw na ɛbɛto mo so na ɛno na ɛbɛma wo ne wʼadwumayɛfo ne Misraimfo nyinaa ahu sɛ Onyankopɔn biara nni asase yi so ka me ho.
15 Ngoba khathesi ngizaselula isandla sami ukuze ngikutshaye lesizwe sakho ngomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ubusuchitheka usuke emhlabeni.
Sɛ mepɛ a anka matɔre mo nyinaa ase, anka mede ɔyaredɔm bekum mo nyinaa.
16 Kodwa isibili ngalokhu ngikumisile ukuze ngikutshengise amandla ami lokuze ibizo lami lilandiswe emhlabeni wonke.
Nanso manyɛ no saa, efisɛ na mepɛ sɛ meda me tumi adi kyerɛ wo ne asase sofo nyinaa.
17 Usaziphakamisa umelana labantu bami, ukuthi ungabayekeli bahambe yini?
Woayɛ kyenkyenee wɔ me nkurɔfo so a ɛno nti, womma wɔnkɔ.
18 Khangela, kusasa ngalesisikhathi ngizanisa isiqhotho esinzima kakhulu, esingazanga sibe khona esinjalo eGibhithe kusukela ngosuku lisekelwa kuze kube khathesi.
Ɔkyena saa bere yi ara mu, mɛma mparuwbo a ano yɛ den a bi ntɔɔ Misraimman mu da atɔ.
19 Khathesi-ke thuma, ubuthe izifuyo zakho lakho konke olakho ensimini; wonke umuntu layo yonke inyamazana okuficwa ensimini okungabuthelwanga ekhaya, nxa isiqhotho siwela phezu kwakho, kuzakufa.
Ntɛm! Monka mo anantwi a mode wɔn kɔ adidi no mmra fie. Efisɛ mparuwbo no bekum nnipa ne mmoa a wɔbɛka wuram no nyinaa.”
20 Lowo olesabayo ilizwi leNkosi phakathi kwenceku zikaFaro wenza izisebenzi zakhe lezifuyo zakhe zibalekele ezindlini;
Misraimfo a asɛm no bɔɔ wɔn hu no de wɔn anantwi ne wɔn asomfo nyinaa baa fie.
21 kodwa lowo ongabekanga inhliziyo yakhe elizwini leNkosi watshiya izisebenzi zakhe lezifuyo zakhe ensimini.
Na wɔn a wɔammu Awurade asɛm a ɔkae no gyaw wɔn anantwi ne wɔn asomfo wɔ wuram maa mparuwbo no kaa wɔn.
22 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelulela isandla sakho emazulwini, ukuze kube khona isiqhotho elizweni lonke leGibhithe, phezu kwabantu laphezu kwezinyamazana laphezu kwemibhida yonke yensimu elizweni leGibhithe.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa kyerɛ soro na ma mparuwbo no ntɔ ngu nnipa, mmoa ne nnua a ɛwɔ Misraim nyinaa so.”
23 UMozisi waseselulela intonga yakhe emazulwini; iNkosi yasiletha imidumo lesiqhotho; lomlilo wehlela emhlabeni; leNkosi yanisa isiqhotho elizweni leGibhithe.
Enti Mose de ne nsa kyerɛɛ wim maa Awurade maa anyinam ne aprannaa twitwae.
24 Kwasekusiba khona isiqhotho, lomlilo uzixubanise esiqhothweni; okunzima kakhulu; okungazanga kube khona okunjengakho elizweni lonke leGibhithe selokhu laba yisizwe.
Na ɛyɛ asɛm a ɛyɛ hu yiye. Efisɛ efi Misraim abɔse de kosi saa bere no, na aprannaa mmobɔɔ saa da.
25 Isiqhotho sasesitshaya elizweni lonke leGibhithe konke okusegangeni, kusukela ebantwini kusiya ezinyamazaneni; lesiqhotho satshaya wonke umbhida weganga, sephula sonke isihlahla seganga.
Misraimman sɛee pasaa. Biribiara a ɛkaa wuram, sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa anaa mmoa no, wɔn nyinaa wuwui. Nnua nso bubu maa nnɔbae sɛesɛee.
26 Kuphela elizweni leGosheni lapho ababekhona abantwana bakoIsrayeli kwakungekho isiqhotho.
Faako a mparuwbo no antɔ wɔ ɔman no mu no yɛ Gosen asase so a na Israelfo no te hɔ no.
27 UFaro wasethuma wabiza uMozisi loAroni, wathi kubo: Ngonile ngalesisikhathi; iNkosi ilungile, kanti mina labantu bami sibabi.
Afei, Farao soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Mose ne Aaron ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Afei de, mahu me mfomso. Awurade di bem na me ne me nkurɔfo ayɛ bɔne ama atra so.
28 Ncengani iNkosi, ngoba sekwanele, ukuze kungabi lemidumo elamandla lesiqhotho; besengiliyekela lihambe, lingabe lisahlala.
Monsrɛ Awurade mma me, na ɔmma aprannaa ne mparuwbo dodow yi to ntwa na mɛma mo akɔ ntɛm so.”
29 UMozisi wasesithi kuye: Nxa sengiphumile emzini, ngizachaya izandla zami eNkosini; kuzaphela imidumo lesiqhotho kasisayikuba khona, ukuze wazi ukuthi umhlaba ungoweNkosi.
Mose kae se, “Sɛ mifi kuropɔn yi mu ara pɛ a, mɛma me nsa so abɔ Awurade mpae na aprannaa no ne mparuwbo no agyae. Eyi bɛma mo ahu sɛ Awurade na asase nyinaa hyɛ ne nsa.
30 Kodwa wena lenceku zakho, ngiyazi ukuthi kalikayesabi iNkosi uNkulunkulu.
Nanso minim yiye sɛ wo ne wo mpanyimfo de, eyinom nyinaa akyi no, mubepirim mo koma.”
31 Kwasekutshaywa ifilakisi lebhali; ngoba ibhali yayisesikwetshini, lefilakisi yayisithela amaluba.
Aprannaa no sɛee wɔn awi ne wɔn asaawa a na ɛresow aba no nyinaa.
32 Kodwa ingqoloyi lespelite kakutshaywanga, ngoba kwakungakavuthwa.
Nanso atoko ne aburow de, ansɛe, efisɛ na emfifii ɛ.
33 UMozisi wasephuma emzini evela kuFaro, wachaya izandla zakhe eNkosini; kwasekusima imidumo lesiqhotho, lezulu kalabe lisathululeka emhlabeni.
Enti Mose fii Farao anim wɔ kurow no mu maa ne nsa so kyerɛɛ Awurade maa aprannaa no ne mparuwbo no ne osu no gyaee tɔ.
34 Kwathi uFaro esebonile ukuthi izulu lesiqhotho lemidumo sekumile, wengezelela ukona, wayenza yaba nzima inhliziyo yakhe, yena lenceku zakhe.
Farao ne ne mpanyimfo huu sɛ biribiara ayɛ yiye wɔ hɔ no, wɔkɔɔ so pirim wɔn koma yɛɛ bɔne de buu bɔ a wɔhyɛɛ Awurade no so.
35 Njalo inhliziyo kaFaro yaba lukhuni, kazabayekela abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahambe, njengalokhu iNkosi yayitshilo ngesandla sikaMozisi.
Enti Farao amma nkurɔfo no ankɔ sɛnea Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ ho nkɔm kyerɛɛ Mose no.
