< 2 Mose 2 >
1 Na Lewini bi waree ɔbea bi fii Lewi abusuakuw mu.
Aftir these thingis a man of `the hows of Leuy yede out, and took a wijf of his kyn,
2 Ɔbea no nyinsɛn woo abarimaa. Abofra no na huu sɛ ne ho yɛ fɛ yiye nti ɔde no siee fie asram abiɛsa.
which conseyuede, and childide a sone. And sche seiy hym wel farynge, and hidde him bi thre monethis.
3 Eduu bere bi no, na ɔde no sie a ɛnyɛ yiye nti, ɔde mfea nwenee kɛntɛn bi de ɛhyɛ ne ama faa ho sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, nsu rentumi nkɔ mu. Ɔde abofra no too mu de no kosii asu Nil konkɔn so wɔ wura a na ɛwɔ hɔ no bi mu.
And whanne sche myyte not hele, thanne sche took a `leep of segge, and bawmede it with tar and pitch, and puttide the yong child with ynne, and puttide hym forth in a `place of spier of the brenke of the flood,
4 Abofra no nuabea kogyinaa akyiri baabi a na ɔwɛn no.
the while his sistir stood afer, and bihelde the bifalling of the thing.
5 Farao babea kɔɔ asu no mu sɛ ɔrekoguare. Bere a ɔne ne mmaawa nam asu no konkɔn so no, ohuu kɛntɛn no sɛ ɛhyɛ wuram hɔ baabi, enti ɔsomaa ne mmaawa no mu baako sɛ ɔnkɔfa mmrɛ no.
Lo! forsothe the douytir of Farao cam doun to be waischun in the flood, and hir damysels walkiden bi the brenke of the flood. And whanne sche hadde seyn a leep in the `place of spier, sche sente oon of hir seruauntessis,
6 Ɔde bae a obuee so no, ohuu sɛ abarimaa bi da mu a ɔresu. Asɛm no yɛɛ no awerɛhow. Ɔkae se, “Ɔyɛ Hebrifo yi bi ba.”
and sche openyde the leep brouyt to hir, and seiy a litil child wepynge ther ynne. And sche hadde mercy on the child, and seide, It is of the yonge children of Ebrews.
7 Abofra no nuabea a na ɔrewɛn no no kɔɔ ɔhene babea no nkyɛn kobisaa no se, “Menkɔfrɛ Hebrifo mmea no baako na ɔmmɛhwɛ no mma wo ana?”
To whom the `sister of the child seide, Wolt thou that Y go, and clepe to thee an Ebrew womman, that may nurische the yong child?
8 Ɔhene babea no buae se, “Yiw.” Enti, abeawa no tuu mmirika kɔɔ fie kɔfrɛɛ abofra no na de no bae.
She answeride, Go thou. The damysel yede, and clepide the `modir of the child.
9 Ɔhene babea no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa abofra no kɔ fie na kɔhwɛ no ma me na metua wo ho ka.” Enti ɔde no kɔɔ fie kɔhwɛɛ no.
To whom `the douytir of Farao spak, and seide, Take thou this child, and nurische to me; Y schal yyue to thee thi mede. The womman took, and nurischide the child, and bitook hym woxun to `the douytir of Farao,
10 Onyin kakra no, ɔde no brɛɛ ɔhene babea no ma ogyee no de no yɛɛ ne ba. Ɔkae se, “Mɛto ne din Mose efisɛ miyii no fii nsu mu.”
whom sche purchaside `in to the place of sone; and sche clepide his name Moises, and seide, For Y took hym fro the watir.
11 Mose nyin no, da bi, ɔkɔsraa ne manfo Hebrifo no. Oduu hɔ no, ohuu sɛ ne manfo no reyɛ adwumaden. Nsrahwɛ no mu na Mose huu sɛ Misraimni bi reboro Hebrini a ɔyɛ ne nua.
In tho daies, aftir that Moises encreesside, he yede out to hise britheren, and seiy the turment of hem, and a man Egipcian smytynge `oon of Ebrews, hise britheren.
12 Mose hwɛɛ ha hwɛɛ ha huu sɛ obiara nni hɔ no, okum Misraimni no tutuu nwea mu de no hyɛɛ hɔ.
And whanne he hadde biholdun hidur and thidir, and hadde seyn, that no man was present, he killide the Egipcian, and hidde in soond.
13 Ade kyee no, ɔsan kɔɔ Hebrifo no nsrahwɛ. Oduu hɔ no, na wɔn mu baanu reko. Obisaa nea nʼasɛm nyɛ dɛ no se, “Dɛn na woreyɛ yi a worebobɔ wo nua Hebrini saa?”
And he yede out in another dai, and seiy tweyne Ebrews chidynge, and he seide to hym that dide wrong, Whi smytist thou thi brother?
14 Ɔbarima no nso bisaa no se, “Wufi he? Hena na ɔde wo yɛɛ yɛn sodifo ne temmufo? Anaasɛ woayɛ wʼadwene sɛ wobekum me sɛnea nnɛra wukum Misraimni no?” Mose huu sɛ bɔne a wayɛ no ho ada hɔ no, osuroe.
Which answeride, Who ordeynede thee prince, ether iuge on vs? Whether thou wolt sle me, as thou killidist yisterdai the Egipcian? Moises dredde, and seide, Hou is this word maad opun?
15 Na Farao nso tee asɛm no, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔnkɔfa Mose mmra na wonkum no. Nanso Mose guan kɔɔ Midian asase so. Da bi a Mose kɔtenaa abura bi ho wɔ hɔ no,
And Farao herde this word, and souyte to sle Moyses, which fledde fro his siyt, and dwellide in the lond of Madian, and sat bisidis a pit.
16 Midian sɔfo mmabea baason bi baa hɔ sɛ wɔrebɛtow nsu de akɔma wɔn papa nguan.
Forsothe seuene douytris weren to the preest of Madian, that camen to drawe watir; and whanne the trouyis weren fillid, thei coueitiden to watere `the flockis of her fadir.
17 Nanso nguanhwɛfo bi pampam mmeawa no. Mose begyee wɔn fii nguanhwɛfo no nsam maa mmeawa no nguan no nsu nomee.
Scheepherdis camen aboue, and dreuen hem awei; and Moises roos, and defendide the dameselis; and he watride `the scheep of hem.
18 Wɔsan koduu wɔn agya Reuel nkyɛn no, obisaa wɔn se, “Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na nnɛ de, munyaa nsu maa nguan yi nom ntɛm sɛɛ?”
And whanne thei hadden turned ayen to Jetro, her fadir, he seide to hem, Whi camen ye swiftliere than ye weren wont?
19 Wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn agya se, “Misraimni bi na ogyee yɛn fii nguanhwɛfo no nsam. Ɔno ara na ɔtow nsu no maa yɛn nguan no nomee.”
Thei answeriden, A man of Egipt delyuerede vs fro the hond of scheepherdis; ferthermore and he drow watir with vs, and yaf drynk to the scheep.
20 Wɔn agya bisae se, “Na ɔwɔ he? Mugyaw no wɔ hɔ ana? Monkɔfrɛ no na ommedidi.”
And he seide, Where is that man? whi leften ye the man? clepe ye hym, that he ete breed.
21 Mose kɔɔ Reuel frɛ no. Akyiri no, ɔne wɔn kɔtenae, maa Reuel de ne babea Sipora maa no aware.
Therfor Moises swoor, that he wolde dwelle with Jetro; and he took a wijf, Sefora, `the douyter of Jetro.
22 Wɔwoo ɔbabarima maa Mose too no din Gersom, ase ne Ɔhɔho, efisɛ Mose kyerɛ ase se, “Meyɛ ɔhɔho wɔ ananafo asase so.”
And sche childide a sone to hym, whom he clepide Gersan, and seide, Y was a comelyng in an alyen lond. Forsothe sche childide an othir sone, whom he clepide Eliezer, and seide, For God of my fadir is myn helpere, and delyuerede me fro the hond of Farao.
23 Mfe bi akyi no, Misraimhene no wui. Na Israelfo no resi apini wɔ wɔn nkoasom no mu. Enti na wɔresu frɛ Onyankopɔn.
Forsothe aftir myche tyme the kyng of Egipt diede, and the sones of Israel inwardli weiliden for werkis, and crieden, and the cry of hem for werkis stiede to God.
24 Onyankopɔn nso tiee wɔn sufrɛ no, kaee bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob sɛ ɔde nʼasefo bɛsan aba Kanaan asase so no.
And he herde the weilyng of hem, and he hadde mynde of the boond of pees, which he hadde maad with Abraham, Ysaac, and Jacob; and he bihelde the sones of Israel,
25 Onyankopɔn hwɛ huu sɛ bere adu sɛ ogye wɔn.
and knewe hem.
