2 Mose 5
1 Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ anwonwade yi kyerɛɛ mpanyimfo no wiee no, wokohuu Farao ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nea Israel Nyankopɔn se ni, ‘Ma me nkurɔfo mfi ha nkɔ sare so nkɔbɔ afahyɛgua kronkron wɔ hɔ mfa nsɔre me.’”
Emva kwalokho-ke uMozisi loAroni bahamba bathi kuFaro: Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli: Bayekele abantu bami bahambe, bangigcinele umkhosi enkangala.
2 Farao bisae se, “Hena ne Awurade a ɛsɛ sɛ mitie no na mema Israelfo no kɔ? Minnim Awurade biara enti meremma Israelfo no nkɔ.”
Kodwa uFaro wathi: Ingubani iNkosi ukuthi ngilalele ilizwi layo, ngiyekele uIsrayeli ahambe? Kangiyazi iNkosi, futhi kangiyikumyekela uIsrayeli ahambe.
3 Na Aaron ne Mose tii mu se, “Hebri Nyankopɔn ne yɛn ahyia. Ɛsɛ sɛ yetu nnansa kwan kɔ sare so kɔbɔ afɔre wɔ hɔ de ma Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn. Na sɛ yɛantie no a, ɔyaredɔm anaa afoa ano na yebewuwu.”
Basebesithi: UNkulunkulu wamaHebheru uhlangane lathi; ake usiyekele sihambe uhambo lwensuku ezintathu enkangala, siyihlabele iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, hlezi isehlele ngomatshayabhuqe wesifo kumbe ngenkemba.
4 Farao bisae se, “Mose ne Aaron, adɛn nti na morema nkurɔfo no agyae wɔn nnwuma? Monkɔ mo nnwuma so ntɛm!”
Kodwa inkosi yeGibhithe yathi kubo: Kungani, Mozisi loAroni, lisusa abantu emisebenzini yabo? Yanini emithwalweni yenu!
5 Farao toaa so se, “Mprempren, saa nnipa no dɔɔso sen ɔmanfo no, nanso mopɛ sɛ moma ahɔho no gyae adwumayɛ.”
UFaro wasesithi: Khangelani, abantu belizwe sebebanengi, kanti liyabaphumuza emithwalweni yabo.
6 Da no ara, Farao somaa nnipa ma wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔhwɛ Israelfo no so no se,
Ngalolosuku uFaro waselaya abaqhubi besibhalo besizwe lezinduna zaso, esithi:
7 “Mommma nnipa no sare a wɔde bɛyɛ ntayaa no bio! Momma wɔn ankasa nkotwa sare no.
Lingabe lisabanika abantu amahlanga okwenza izitina njengamandulo; kabahambe bona bayezibuthela amahlanga;
8 Na ntayaa dodow a wotwa no nso, monntew so baako koraa, efisɛ asɛm a wɔaka no da no adi pefee sɛ wɔyɛ akwadwofo nti na wɔreka se wɔrekɔ sare so akɔbɔ wɔn Awurade afɔre no.
lenani lezitina abalenze mandulo lizabamisela lona, lingaphunguli kulo; ngoba bayavilapha; yikho bekhala besithi: Siyekeleni siyehlabela uNkulunkulu wethu.
9 Momma wɔn adwuma no mu nyɛ den, na ɛmmee wɔn na wɔankotie atosɛm biara.”
Yenzani umsebenzi ube nzima kakhulu phezu kwamadoda, ukuze basebenze kuwo, bangalaleli amazwi enkohliso.
10 Enti adwumasohwɛfo ne wɔn akwankyerɛfo no ka kyerɛɛ Hebrifo no se, “Farao aka akyerɛ yɛn se yɛmmma mo sare bio.
Abaqhubi besibhalo babantu baphuma, lezinduna zabo, bakhuluma ebantwini besithi: Utsho njalo uFaro: Kangiyikulinika amahlanga;
11 Mo ara munkokyin nhwehwɛ bi, nanso ntayaa a mutwa no, muntwa dodow saa ara.”
hambani lina, lizithathele amahlanga lapho elingawathola khona; kodwa umsebenzi wenu kakuyikuphungulwa lutho kuwo.
12 Enti Hebrifo no kyinkyinii Misraim asase so nyinaa sɛ wɔrekɔhwehwɛ sare no bi.
Abantu basebehlakazeka elizweni lonke leGibhithe ukuze babuthe izidindi zibe ngamahlanga.
13 Adwumasohwɛfo no hyɛɛ wɔn atirimɔden so se, “Muntwa ntayaa dodow sɛnea na mutwa no.”
Abaqhubi besibhalo babahaluzelisa besithi: Qedani imisebenzi yenu, umlandu wosuku ngosuku lwawo, njengamhla kulamahlanga.
14 Na Misraimfo adwumasohwɛfo no kaa Hebrifo mpanyimfo a wɔde wɔn atuatua adwuma no ano sɛ akwankyerɛfo no mmaa, bisaa wɔn se, “Adɛn nti na moanwie ntayaa a wɔahyɛ sɛ muntwa no nnɛra ne nnɛ no nyinaa sɛnea na moyɛ kan no?”
Njalo izinduna zabantwana bakoIsrayeli, abaqhubi besibhalo bakaFaro abababekela zona, zatshaywa, kuthiwa: Kaliqedanga ngani umsebenzi wenu omisiweyo wokwenza izitina njengamandulo, layizolo lalamuhla?
15 Mpanyimfo yi kɔɔ Farao nkyɛn kɔsrɛɛ no se, “Adɛn na woyɛ wo nkoa saa?
Izinduna zabantwana bakoIsrayeli zasezisiza, zakhala kuFaro zathi: Wenzelani kanje ezincekwini zakho?
16 Wɔmma wo nkoa sare biara, nanso wɔka kyerɛ yɛn se, ‘Montwa ntayaa!’ Wɔka yɛn mmaa nanso mfomso no fi wʼankasa wo nkurɔfo no.”
Amahlanga kawanikwa inceku zakho, kanti bathi kithi: Yenzani izitina. Khangela-ke, inceku zakho ziyatshaywa; kodwa icala ngelabantu bakho.
17 Nanso Farao buae se, “Munni dwuma bi di, na sɛ mowɔ dwuma bi di a, anka morenka se, ‘Momma yɛnkɔbɔ afɔre mma Awurade.’
Kodwa wathi: Lina lingamavila, lingamavila; ngalokhu lithi: Siyekeleni siyehlabela iNkosi.
18 Monsan nkɔyɛ adwuma ntɛm. Obiara remma mo sare, nanso ntayaa dodow a mutwa no daa no, saa ara na mubetwa.”
Khathesi-ke hambani, lisebenze; kodwa amahlanga kaliyikuwanikwa, kanti lizaletha inani lezitina.
19 Bere a wɔka kyerɛɛ Israelfo mpanyimfo a wodi adwuma no anim sɛ akwankyerɛfo no se ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa ntayaa no dodow sɛnea wɔyɛ daa no, wohuu sɛ ahokyere aba.
Izinduna zabantwana bakoIsrayeli zasezibona ukuthi zazisebubini, nxa kuthiwa: Kaliyikuphungula ezitineni zenu, umlandu wosuku ngosuku lwawo.
20 Bere a wofi Farao anim bae a wohuu sɛ Mose ne Aaron retwɛn wɔn wɔ ahemfi no ho no,
Zasezihlangana loMozisi loAroni ababemi ukubahlangabeza ekuphumeni kwabo kuFaro;
21 wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Awurade mmu mo atɛn sɛ moama Farao ne ne nkurɔfo anya yɛn ho menasepɔw, na mode afoa ahyɛ wɔn nsa sɛ wonkunkum yɛn.”
zasezisithi kubo: INkosi ilibone yahlulele; ngoba lenze iphunga lethu libe livumba emehlweni kaFaro lemehlweni enceku zakhe; linike inkemba esandleni sabo ukuze basibulale.
22 Asɛm yi maa Mose kɔɔ Awurade nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade, adɛn nti na woma wo manfo brɛ saa? So eyi nti na wosomaa me?
UMozisi wasebuyela eNkosini wathi: Nkosi, wenzeleni okubi kulesisizwe? Kungani ungithumile?
23 Efi bere a mekɔkaa wo nkra no kyerɛɛ Farao no, tan ara na ɔretan wɔn ani, nanso wunnyee wɔn wɔ ɔkwan biara so ɛ.”
Ngoba selokhu ngaya kuFaro ukukhuluma ebizweni lakho, wenzile okubi kulesisizwe; futhi kawusikhululanga lokusikhulula isizwe sakho.
