2 Na Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Mene Awurade no.
Moreouer God spake vnto Moses, and sayd vnto him, I am the Lord,
3 Miyii me ho adi kyerɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob sɛ Onyankopɔn tumfo. Nanso mammɔ me din sɛ Awurade no ankyerɛ wɔn.
And I appeared vnto Abraham, to Izhak, and to Iaakob by the Name of Almightie God: but by my Name Iehouah was I not knowen vnto the.

Furthermore as I made my couenant with them to giue them ye land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers:
5 Bio, mate Israelfo apinisi ne nya a Misraimfo di wɔn no nyinaa na makae me ne wɔn apam no.
So I haue also hearde the groning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keepe in bondage, and haue remembred my couenant.
6 “Enti ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Me, Awurade, menam me tumi so bɛyɛ anwonwade de ayi wɔn afi nkoasom mu ama wɔade wɔn ho.
Wherefore say thou vnto the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from the burdens of the Egyptians, and will deliuer you out of their bondage, and will redeeme you in a stretched out arme, and in great iudgements.
7 Megye wɔn ato mu sɛ me nkurɔfo na mayɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn a wagye wɔn afi Misraimfo nsam no.
Also I will take you for my people, and will be your God: then ye shall knowe that I the Lord your God bring you out from the burdens of the Egyptians.

And I will bring you into the land which I sware that I woulde giue to Abraham, to Izhak, and to Iaakob, and I will giue it vnto you for a possession: I am the Lord.
