1 Mose 12
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram se, “Fi wʼabusuafo nkyɛn ne wʼasase so kɔ asase a mɛkyerɛ wo no so.
Forsothe the Lord seide to Abram, Go thou out of thi lond, and of thi kynrede, and of the hous of thi fadir, and come thou in to the lond which Y schal schewe to thee;
2 “Mɛma wo ayɛ ɔman kɛse, na mehyira wo. Mɛma wo din atrɛw, na woayɛ nhyira ama nnipa bebree.
and Y schal make thee in to a greet folk, and Y schal blisse thee, and Y schal magnyfie thi name, and thou schalt be blessid;
3 Mehyira wɔn a wohyira wo, na obiara a ɔdome wo no, mɛdome no. Ɛnam wo so na wobehyira nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa.”
Y schal blesse hem that blessen thee, and Y schal curse hem that cursen thee; and alle kynredis of erthe schulen be blessid in thee.
4 Enti Abram kɔe, sɛnea Awurade Nyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no no. Na Lot ne no kɔe. Bere a Abram refi Haran asase so akɔ no, na wadi mfe aduɔson anum.
And so Abram yede out, as the Lord comaundide hym, and Loth yede with hym. Abram was of `thre scoor yeer and fiftene whanne he yede out of Aran.
5 Na Abram faa ne yere Sarai ne ne nuabarima Haran babarima Lot, nʼagyapade ne nʼasomfo a onyaa wɔn wɔ Haran nyinaa, sii mu kɔɔ Kanaan asase so.
And he took Saray, his wijf, and Loth, the sone of his brother, and al the substaunce which thei hadden in possessioun, and the men whiche thei hadden bigete in Aran; and thei yeden out that thei `schulen go in to the loond of Chanaan. And whanne they camen in to it,
6 Wɔfaa asase no so ara kosii baabi a wɔfrɛ hɔ Sekem, koduu odum dua bi a esi baabi a wɔfrɛ hɔ More. Ɛhɔ na wosii wɔn ntamadan. Saa bere no, na Kanaanfo na wɔte asase no so.
Abram passide thorou the lond til to the place of Sichem, and til to the noble valey. Forsothe Chananei was thanne in the lond.
7 Afei, Awurade Nyankopɔn yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Abram ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mede saa asase yi bɛma wʼaseni.” Enti Abram sii afɔremuka wɔ hɔ, de kaee Awurade Nyankopɔn a ɔdaa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no no.
Sotheli the Lord apperide to Abram, and seide to hym, Y schal yyue this lond to thi seed. And Abram bildide there an auter to the Lord, that apperide to hym.
8 Akyiri no, Abram fii hɔ, de nʼani kyerɛɛ mmepɔw bi a ɛwɔ apuei fam, sii ne ntamadan wɔ hɔ. Na Bet-El da atɔe fam, na Ai nso da apuei fam. Ɛhɔ na osii afɔremuka maa Awurade Nyankopɔn, sɔree no wɔ hɔ.
And fro thennus he passide forth to the hil Bethel, that was ayens the eest, and settide there his tabernacle, hauynge Bethel fro the west, and Hay fro the eest. And he bildide also there an auter to the Lord, and inwardli clepide his name.
9 Na Abram fii hɔ toaa so de nʼani kyerɛɛ Negeb.
And Abram yede goynge and goynge forth ouer to the south.
10 Saa bere no, ɔkɔm kɛse bi sii asase a na Abram te so no so. Enti otu kɔtenaa Misraim asase so kakra, efisɛ ɔkɔm a ɛbaa asase no so no, na ano yɛ den yiye.
Sotheli hungur was maad in the lond; and Abram yede doun in to Egipt, to be a pilgrime ther, for hungur hadde maistrie in the lond.
11 Ɔreyɛ adu Misraim asase so no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ne yere Sarai se, “Minim sɛ woyɛ ɔbea a wo ho yɛ fɛ yiye.
And whanne he was nyy to entre in to Egipt, he seide to Saray, his wijf, Y knowe that thou art a fair womman,
12 Sɛ Misraimfo no hu wo a, wɔbɛka se, ‘Ne yere ni. Momma yenkum no, na yɛmfa no.’
and that whanne Egipcians schulen se thee, thei schulen seie, it is his wijf, and thei schulen sle me, and `schulen reserue thee.
13 Na sɛ woka sɛ woyɛ me nuabea a, Misraimfo no bɛhwɛ me yiye, efisɛ wɔn ani wɔ wo ho nti wɔrenkum me.”
Therfor, Y biseche thee, seie thou, that thou art my sistir, that it be wel to me for thee, and that my lijf lyue for loue of thee.
14 Bere a woduu Misraim asase so no, Misraimfo no huu sɛ ɔbea no ho yɛ fɛ yiye.
And so whanne Abram hadde entrid in to Egipt, Egipcians sien the womman that sche was ful fair; and the prynces telden to Farao, and preiseden hir anentis him;
15 Na ɔhene Farao mpanyimfo huu no no, wɔkamfoo nʼahoɔfɛ, kɔbɔɔ no amanneɛ. Enti ɔhene Farao soma ma wɔkɔfaa ɔbea no baa nʼahemfi hɔ.
and the womman was takun vp in to the hous of Farao.
16 Esiane ɔbea no ahoɔfɛ nti, ɔhene Farao hwɛɛ Abram yiye, maa no nguan, anantwi, afurumnini ne afurumbere, nkoa, mfenaa ne yoma.
Forsothe thei vsiden wel Abram for hir; and scheep, and oxun, and assis, and seruauntis, and seruauntessis, and sche assis, and camels weren to hym.
17 Na esiane Abram yere Sarai te a na ɔte Farao ahemfi hɔ no nti, Awurade Nyankopɔn maa ɔyaredɔm baa Farao ne ne fifo so.
Forsothe the Lord beet Farao and his hous with moste veniaunces, for Saray, the wijf of Abram.
18 Eyi nti, Farao frɛɛ Abram bisaa no se, “Dɛn na woayɛ me yi? Adɛn nti na woanka ankyerɛ me sɛ ɔbea no yɛ wo yere?
And Farao clepide Abram, and seide to hym, What is it that thou hast do to me? whi schewidist thou not to me, that sche was thi wijf?
19 Adɛn nti na wokae se, ‘Ɔyɛ me nuabea’ na woama maware no? Sɛ saa na ɛte de a, gye wo yere. Wo yere ni! Fa wʼade kɔ!”
for what cause seidist thou, that sche was thi sister, that Y schulde take hir in to wife to me? Now therfor lo! thi wiif; take thou hir, and go.
20 Na Farao hyɛɛ asraafo sɛ wonkogya Abram ne ne yere kwan a wɔn fifo ne wɔn agyapade nyinaa ka ho.
And Farao comaundide to men on Abram, and thei ledden forth hym, and his wijf, and alle thingis that he hadde.
