2 Mose 15
1 Na Mose ne Israelfo no too saa dwom yi de kamfoo Awurade: “Mɛto dwom ama Awurade, efisɛ wadi nkonim anuonyam mu; Watow ɔpɔnkɔ ne ne sotefo no agu po mu.
Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song to Jehovah, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
2 “Awurade yɛ mʼahoɔden, me dwom ne me nkwagye. Ɔyɛ me Nyankopɔn, na mɛkamfo no. Ɔyɛ mʼagya Nyankopɔn, mɛma no so.
My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation: This is my God, and I will glorify him; My father's God, and I will extol him.
3 Awurade yɛ ɔkofo; ne din ne Awurade.
Jehovah is a man of war; Jehovah, his name.
4 Farao nteaseɛnam ne nʼakofo, watow wɔn agu po mu. Wɔamemem wɔ Po Kɔkɔɔ mu. Misraim akofo atitiriw awuwu asorɔkye ase.
Pharaoh's chariots and his army hath he cast into the sea; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 Nsu akata wɔn so. Wɔmemem asubun mu sɛ ɔbo.
The depths covered them; they sank to the bottom as a stone.
6 Wo nsa nifa, Awurade, tumi ne anuonyam ahyɛ no ma; wo nsa nifa, Awurade, atetew atamfo mu pasaa.
Thy right hand, Jehovah, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, Jehovah, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
7 “Wo tumi kɛse no mu na wonam tuu wɔn a wotia wo no gui. Womaa wʼabufuw bɛhyew wɔn sɛnea ogya hyew sare.
And by the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown thine adversaries: Thou sentest forth thy burning wrath, it consumed them as stubble.
8 Wugu ahome a, nsu mu pae. Egyinaa sɛ afasu maa po taa fa ne fa.
And by the breath of thy nostrils the waters were heaped up; The streams stood as a mound; The depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 Ɔtamfo kae se, ‘Mɛtaa wɔn, mɛto wɔn, asɛe wɔn. Mɛtwe mʼafoa wɔ wɔn so atwitwa wɔn asinasin.’
The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be sated upon them; I will unsheath my sword, my hand shall dispossess them.
10 Nanso Onyankopɔn bɔɔ ne mframa ma po kataa wɔn so. Wɔmemem sɛ sumpii wɔ subun no mu.
Thou didst blow with thy breath, the sea covered them; They sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Hena na ɔte sɛ Awurade wɔ anyame mu? Hena na ɔte sɛ wo? Obirɛmpɔn, wɔ kronkronyɛ mu; nea yɛde osuro kronkron ma nʼanuonyam, Ɔnwonwani Nyankopɔn.
Who is like unto thee, Jehovah, among the gods? Who is like unto thee, glorifying thyself in holiness, Fearful [in] praises, doing wonders?
12 “Woteɛɛ wo nsa nifa na asase menee wɔn.
Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 Woadi nnipa a wugyee wɔn no anim. Wʼayamye mu, wubedi wo nkurɔfo a woagye wɔn anim. Wʼahoɔden mu, wobɛkyerɛ wɔn kwan akɔ wo tenabea kronkron hɔ.
Thou by thy mercy hast led forth the people that thou hast redeemed; Thou hast guided them by thy strength unto the abode of thy holiness.
14 Amanaman bɛte ama wɔn ho apopo. Ehu bɛka nnipa a wɔwɔ Filistia.
The peoples heard it, they were afraid: A thrill seized the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Edom mpanyimfo besuro. Atumfo a wɔwɔ Moab ho bɛwosow. Na nnipa a wɔwɔ Kanaan nyinaa bɛbɔ huboa.
Then the princes of Edom were amazed; The mighty men of Moab, trembling hath seized them; All the inhabitants of Canaan melted away.
16 Ehu ne suro bɛtɔ wɔn so. Awurade, wo tumi nti, wɔremma yɛn so! Wo nkurɔfo a wotɔɔ wɔn Betwa wɔn ho asomdwoe mu.
Fear and dread fall upon them; By the greatness of thine arm they are still as a stone; Till thy people pass over, Jehovah, Till the people pass over that thou hast purchased.
17 Wode wɔn bɛba abedua wɔn wɔ wo bepɔw so, wo ara wo fi hɔ, Awurade— Kronkronbea a woasiesie sɛ wo tenabea no.
Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, The place that thou, Jehovah, hast made thy dwelling, The Sanctuary, Lord, that thy hands have prepared.
18 “Awurade bedi hene akosi daa.”
Jehovah shall reign for ever and ever!
19 Farao apɔnkɔ, nʼapɔnkɔkafo ne ne nteaseɛnam pɛɛ sɛ wɔfa po no mu; nanso Awurade buu nsu afasu no guu wɔn so bere a na Israelfo no nam mu sɛ asase wosee so.
For the horse of Pharaoh, with his chariots and with his horsemen, came into the sea, and Jehovah brought again the waters of the sea upon them; and the children of Israel went on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea.
20 Ɛhɔ na Odiyifobea Miriam a ɔyɛ Aaron nuabea faa akyene bi bɔ de dii mmea no anim ma wɔsawee.
And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the tambour in her hand, and all the women went out after her with tambours and with dances.
21 Ɛnna Miriam too saa dwom yi: “Monto dwom mma Awurade na wadi nkonim anuonyam mu. Wama ɔpɔnkɔ ne ne sotefo amem po ase.”
And Miriam answered them, Sing to Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
22 Afei, Mose dii Israelfo no anim ne wɔn tu fii Po Kɔkɔɔ no ho kɔɔ Sur sare so. Na wɔnantew sare no so nnansa a wɔannya nsu annom.
And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Woduu Mara no, wɔantumi annom ɛhɔ nsu, efisɛ na ɛyɛ nwene. Ɛno nti na wɔfrɛ hɔ Mara no; ase ne: Nweenwen.
And they came to Marah, and could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore the name of it was called Marah.
24 Enti nnipa no nwiinwii tiaa Mose sɛ, “Dɛn na yɛnnom?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 Mose srɛɛ Awurade sɛ ɔmmoa wɔn, na Awurade kyerɛɛ no dubaa bi. Na ɔtow too nsu no mu, na ɛyɛɛ dɛ maa wotumi nomee. Mara hɔ na Awurade hyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa wɔn se,
And he cried to Jehovah; and Jehovah shewed him wood, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters became sweet. There he made for them a statute and an ordinance; and there he tested them.
26 “Sɛ mubetie Awurade mo Nyankopɔn nne, na moayɛ osetie ayɛ ade trenee de a, ɔyare a mema ɛbɔɔ Misraimfo no, meremma bi mmɔ mo, efisɛ mene Awurade a mesa mo nyarewa.”
And he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and do what is right in his eyes, and incline thine ears to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the complaints upon thee that I have put upon the Egyptians; for I am Jehovah who healeth thee.
27 Wɔbaa Elim a ɛhɔ na na mmura dumien ne mmedua aduɔson wɔ, nti wosisii wɔn ntamadan, tenaa mmura no ho.
And they came to Elim; and twelve springs of water were there, and seventy palm trees; and they encamped there by the waters.
