2 Mose 11

1 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Mɛma ɔhaw a etwa to aba Farao ne nʼasase so. Na ɛno akyi no, ɔbɛma mo akɔ. Nokware, ne ho bɛpere no sɛ mubefi ne ho ama ɔno ara apam mo afi ɔman no mu.

Now the Lord had saide vnto Moses, yet will I bring one plague more vpon Pharaoh, and vpon Egypt: after that, he will let you go hence: when he letteth you goe, he shall at once chase you hence.

2 Monka nkyerɛ Israelfo mmarima ne mmaa nyinaa se wɔnsrɛ wɔn amannifo Misraimfo no na wɔmma wɔn sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ adwinne.”

Speake thou nowe to the people, that euery man require of his neighbour, and euery woman of her neighbour iewels of siluer and iewels of gold.

3 Awurade maa Misraimfo no huu Israelfo no mmɔbɔ, na Mose nso yɛɛ onipa kɛse a na Farao mpanyimfo ne Misraimfo no bu no yiye wɔ ɔman no mu.

And the Lord gaue the people fauour in the sight of the Egyptians: also Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaohs seruantes, and in the sight of the people.)

4 Mose bɔɔ Farao amanneɛ se, “Nea Awurade se ni, ‘Anadwo nnɔndumien metwa mu wɔ Misraim asase so.

Also Moses sayde, Thus sayth the Lord, About midnight will I goe out into the middes of Egypt.

5 Na Misraim fi biara mu ɔbabarima panyin bewu. Efi Farao babarima panyin so, ne dehye a obedi nʼade, ne somfo mu somfo kumaa koraa ba panyin ne ne nyɛmmoa abakan nyinaa bewuwu.

And all the first borne in the lande of Egypt shall die, from the first borne of Pharaoh that sitteth on his throne, vnto the first borne of the maide seruant, that is at the mille, and all the first borne of beastes.

6 Na owu no ho agyaadwotwa bedu Misraim asase so nyinaa. Awerɛhow a ɛte saa mmaa Misraim asase so da, na bi nso remma da bio.

Then there shalbe a great crie throughout all the land of Egypt, such as was neuer none like, nor shalbe.

7 Na Israelfo mu de, biribiara bɛyɛ dwoodwoo na ɔkraman mpo rempɔw.’ Na ɛbɛma woahu sɛ, Awurade de nsonoe ato Misraimfo ne Israelfo ntam!

But against none of ye children of Israel shall a dogge moue his tongue, neyther against man nor beast, that ye may knowe that the Lord putteth a difference betweene the Egyptians and Israel.

8 Wo mpanyimfo yi nyinaa betu mmirika, adi mʼakyi, akotow asrɛ sɛ, ‘Yɛpa wo kyɛw, fi ha ntɛm na kɔfa wo nkurɔfo nyinaa ka wo ho kɔ.’ Sɛ ɛba saa a ansa na mɛkɔ!” Mose wiee kasa no, ɔde abufuwhyew fii ahemfi hɔ kɔe.

And all these thy seruants shall come downe vnto me, and fal before me, saying, Get thee out, and all the people that are at thy feete, and after this will I depart. So he went out from Pharaoh very angry.

9 Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose se, “Asɛm a wobɛka no, Farao rentie. Na ɛno so na megyina ayɛ anwonwade de ada me tumi adi.”

And the Lord saide vnto Moses, Pharaoh shall not heare you, that my wonders may bee multiplied in the land of Egypt.

10 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ saa anwonwade no nyinaa wɔ Farao anim de, nanso Awurade pirim ne koma sɛnea ɔremma nnipa no mfi asase no so nkɔ.

So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: but the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and he suffred not the children of Israel to goe out of his lande.
