2 Mose 10
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “San kɔ Farao nkyɛn efisɛ mapirim ɔne ne mpanyimfo nyinaa koma sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a metumi ayɛ me nsɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi wɔ wɔn mu
Againe the Lord saide vnto Moses, Goe to Pharaoh: for I haue hardened his heart, and the heart of his seruants, that I might worke these my miracles in the middes of his realme,
2 na ɛnam so ama woatumi aka anwonwade a mayɛ wɔ Misraim asase so no akyerɛ wo mma ne wo nenanom, sɛnea me ne Misraimfo no dii no nwenweenwen ne sɛnea meyɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne ahorow wɔ wɔn mu no, na ama woahu sɛ mene Awurade no.”
And that thou maist declare in the eares of thy sonne, and of thy sonnes sonne, what things I haue done in Egypt, and my miracles, which I haue done among them: that ye may knowe that I am the Lord.
3 Enti Mose ne Aaron kohuu Farao ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade a ɔyɛ Hebrifo Nyankopɔn no se mimmisa wo se, ‘Enkosi da bɛn na wubebu me animtiaa? Ma me nkurɔfo nkɔ na wɔnkɔsom me.
Then came Moses and Aaron vnto Pharaoh, and they said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Ebrewes, Howe long wilt thou refuse to humble thy selfe before me? Let my people goe, that they may serue me.
4 Sɛ woamma wɔn ankɔ a, ɔkyena nko ara mɛma mmoadabi aba wo man yi mu.
But if thou refuse to let my people go, beholde, to morowe will I bring grashoppers into thy coastes.
5 Wɔbɛkata asase no ani nyinaa. Na wɔbɛwe biribiara a ɛkae a mparuwbo a ɛtɔe no ansɛe no no nyinaa a wuram nnua nyinaa ka ho.
And they shall couer the face of the earth, that a man can not see the earth: and they shall eate the residue which remaineth vnto you, and hath escaped from the haile: and they shall eate all your trees that bud in the fielde.
6 Mmoa no bɛhyɛ wʼahemfi hɔ, wo mpanyimfo afi mu ne Misraimfo afi nyinaa ma tɔ. Ɛbɛyɛ ɔhaw a, efi bere a mo agyanom bɛtenaa asase yi so de besi nnɛ no, bi nsii saa da.’” Na Mose fii Farao anim kɔe.
And they shall fil thine houses, and all thy seruants houses, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers fathers haue seene, since the time they were vpon the earth vnto this day. So he returned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 Farao mpanyimfo bisaa no se, “Enkosi da bɛn na saa ɔbarima yi bɛyɛ yɛn konnua? Wunhuu sɛ Misraim nyinaa adan amamfo? Ma nnipa no kwan na wɔnkɔ nkɔsom Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn no!”
Then Pharaohs seruants saide vnto him, How long shall he be an offence vnto vs? let the men go, that they may serue the Lord their God: wilt thou first knowe that Egypt is destroyed?
8 Enti wɔsan de Mose ne Aaron baa Farao anim. Farao kae se, “Eye, monkɔsom Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no. Na ɛhefo na mo ne wɔn bɛkɔ?”
So Moses and Aaron were brought againe vnto Pharaoh, and he saide vnto them, Goe, serue the Lord your God, but who are they that shall goe?
9 Mose buaa Farao se, “Yɛde mmofra ne mpanyin, yɛn mmabarima, yɛn mmabea, yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi na ɛbɛkɔ. Yɛde yɛn agyapade nyinaa na ebetu saa kwan no, efisɛ ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn nyinaa kɔ Awurade afahyɛ no.”
And Moses answered, We will go with our yong and with our olde, with our sonnes and with our daughters, with our sheepe and with our cattell will we goe: for we must celebrate a feast vnto the Lord.
10 Farao de abufuw buae se, “Sɛ mɛma mode mmofra nketewa yi akɔ a, ɛno de, Awurade ankasa nka mo ho. Mahu sɛ mowɔ adwemmɔne.
And he said vnto them, Let the Lord so be with you, as I will let you goe and your children: beholde, for euill is before your face.
11 Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛba saa. Mo mmarima no, monkɔsom Awurade, efisɛ ɛno na mobisaa me.” Farao pam wɔn fii nʼahemfi hɔ.
It shall not be so: nowe goe ye that are men, and serue the Lord: for that was your desire. Then they were thrust out from Pharaohs presence.
12 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa wɔ Misraim so na mmoadabi mmɛkata asase no nyinaa so, na wonni biribiara a mparuwbo no ansɛe no no.”
After, the Lord said vnto Moses, Stretch out thine hande vpon the lande of Egypt for the grashoppers, that they may come vpon the lande of Egypt, and eate all the herbes of the land, euen all that the haile hath left.
13 Enti Mose maa ne pema so kyerɛɛ Misraim asase so maa Awurade bɔɔ mframa bi fii apuei fam awia ne anadwo. Ade kyee no, na apuei mframa no de mmoadabi no abegu asase no so nyinaa.
Then Moses stretched foorth his rod vpon the lande of Egypt: and the Lord brought an East winde vpon the land all that day, and al that night: and in the morning the East wind brought the grashoppers.
14 Mmoadabi no kataa Misraim asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Misraim abakɔsɛm kyerɛ se, mmoadabi mmaa ɔman no mu saa da na bi nso remma saa bio.
So the grashoppers went vp vpon all the land of Egypt, and remained in all quarters of Egypt: so grieuous Grashoppers, like to these were neuer before, neither after them shalbe such.
15 Mmoa no kataa asase ani nyinaa ma wosiw owia ani enti wɔmaa sum duruu asase no so. Wɔwee biribiara a mparuwbo no ansɛe no no; biribiara a ɛyɛ ahabammono anka; sɛ ɛyɛ dua anaa afifide a ɛwɔ ɔman no mu baabiara no.
For they couered all the face of the earth, so that the lande was darke: and they did eate all the herbes of the lande, and all the fruites of the trees, which the haile had left, so that there was no greene thing left vpon the trees, nor among the herbes of the fielde throughout all the lande of Egypt.
16 Ntɛm pa ara Farao tuu abɔfo kɔfrɛɛ Mose ne Aaron ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mayɛ bɔne atia Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, ne mo nyinaa.
Therefore Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and sayde, I haue sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
17 Afei, momfa me bɔne nkyɛ me bio na monsrɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, sɛ onyi owu yi mfi yɛn so.”
And nowe forgiue mee my sinne onely this once, and pray vnto the Lord your God, that hee may take away from me this death onely.
18 Enti Mose fii Farao anim kɔsrɛɛ Awurade.
Moses then went out from Pharaoh, and prayed vnto the Lord.
19 Awurade bɔɔ atɔe fam mframa dennen bi ma epiaa mmoadabi no nyinaa koguu Po Kɔkɔɔ no mu, a anka ɔbaako pɛ koraa wɔ Misraim asase no so.
And the Lord turned a mightie strong West winde, and tooke away the grashoppers, and violently cast them into the red Sea, so that there remained not one grashopper in all the coast of Egypt.
20 Nanso Awurade pirim Farao koma nti wamma Israelfo no ankɔ.
But the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and hee did not let the children of Israel goe.
21 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Teɛ wo nsa kyerɛ soro mma sum kabii mmeduru Misraim asase so.”
Againe ye Lord said vnto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heauen, that there may be vpon the lande of Egypt darkenesse, euen darkenesse that may be felt.
22 Enti Mose teɛɛ ne nsa hwɛɛ soro maa sum kabii beduruu Misraim asase no so nnansa.
Then Moses stretched forth his hande towarde heauen, and there was a blacke darkenesse in all the land of Egypt three daies.
23 Sum no duruu saa no, na obiara nhu hwee na wontumi ntu wɔn anan nso nnansa. Nanso Israelfo no de, na nea wɔte hɔ yɛ hann.
No man saw an other, neither rose vp from ye place where he was for three dayes: but all the children of Israel had light where they dwelt.
24 Farao frɛɛ Mose ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kɔ na kɔsom Awurade. Wubetumi de wo mma aka wo ho akɔ; nanso wo nguan ne wʼanantwi no de, ma wɔnka ha.”
The Pharaoh called for Moses and said, Go, serue the Lord: onely your sheepe and your cattel shall abide, and your children shall go with you.
25 Nanso Mose buae se, “Dabi, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi kɔ na yɛde wɔn mu bi bɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn.
And Moses sayd, Thou must giue vs also sacrifices, and burnt offrings that wee may doe sacrifice vnto the Lord our God.
26 Aboa tɔte koraa yɛrennyaw wɔ ha; ɛsɛ sɛ yɛbɔ Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn no afɔre. Yennim nea ɔbɛpɛ gye sɛ yedu hɔ.”
Therefore our cattell also shall go with vs: there shall not an hoofe bee left, for thereof must we take to serue the Lord our God: neither doe wee knowe howe we shall serue the Lord, vntill we come thither.
27 Nanso Awurade pirim Farao koma nti wamma wɔn ankɔ.
(But the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and he would not let them goe)
28 Farao teɛteɛɛ Mose se, “Fi mʼani so kɔ! Mɛhwɛ sɛ woremma mʼanim bio! Da a wubehu mʼanim no, wubewu.”
And Pharaoh sayde vnto him, Get thee from mee: looke thou see my face no more: for whensoeuer thou commest in my sight, thou shalt dye.
29 Mose buae se, “Meremma wʼanim bio sɛnea woreka no pɛpɛɛpɛ.”
Then Moses said, Thou hast said well: from henceforth will I see thy face no more.
