4 Mose 21
1 Arad hene a ɔyɛ Kanaanni a ɔte Negeb tee sɛ Israelfo nam Atarim kwan so reba no, ɔboaboaa nʼakofo ano kɔtow hyɛɛ Israelfo no so kyekyeree ebinom nnommum.
And whanne Chananei, the kyng of Arad, that dwellide at the south, hadde herd this, that is, that Israel cam bi the weye of aspieris, he fauyt ayens hem; and Chananei was ouercomere and ledde pray of Israel.
2 Afei, Israelfo no kaa ntam kyerɛɛ Awurade se, “Sɛ wode saa nnipa yi bɛhyɛ yɛn nsa a, anka yebegu wɔn nkurow akɛse no.”
And Israel bounde hym sylf bi avow to the Lord, and seide, If thou schalt bitake this puple in myn hond, Y schal do awei `the citees therof.
3 Awurade tiee wɔn adesrɛ no na ɔde Kanaanfo no maa wɔn. Israelfo no sɛee wɔn ne wɔn nkurow akɛse pasaa; wɔtoo hɔ din Horma a ase ne “Ɔsɛe.”
And the Lord herde the preieris of Israel, and bitook the Chananey; and Israel killid hym, and distruyede hise citees; and clepide the name of that place Horma, that is, cursyng, `ethir hangyng up.
4 Afei, Israelfo no fii Bepɔw Hor so de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Po Kɔkɔɔ sɛ wobetwa dantaban afa Edom ho. Nanso wɔrekɔ no nipa no aba mu bui;
`Forsothe thei yeden forth also fro the hil of Hor, bi the weie that ledith to the reed see, that thei schulden cumpasse the lond of Edom; and it bigan to anoye the puple, of the weie and trauel.
5 wonwiinwii tiaa Onyankopɔn ne Mose se, “Adɛn nti na moayi yɛn afi Misraim de yɛn aba sɛ yemmewuwu wɔ sare yi so? Aduan nni ha! Nsu nni ha! Yɛmpɛ saa awerɛhow aduan yi!”
And the puple spak ayens the Lord and Moises, and seide, Whi leddist thou vs out of Egipt, that we schulden die in wildirnesse? breed failith, watris ben not; oure soule wlatith now on this `meete moost liyt.
6 Enti, Awurade maa awɔ a wɔn ano wɔ bɔre yiye kɔkekaa wɔn mu bebree ma wowuwui.
Wherfor the Lord sente `firid serpentis in to the puple; at the woundis of whiche serpentis, and the dethis of ful many men,
7 Na nnipa no baa Mose nkyɛn bɛsrɛɛ se, “Yɛayɛ bɔne, efisɛ yɛakasa atia Awurade ne wo. Bɔ mpae kyerɛ Awurade na awɔ no nkɔ.” Enti Mose bɔɔ mpae maa nnipa no.
thei camen to Moyses, and seiden, We synneden, for we spaken ayens the Lord and thee; preie thou, that he take awey fro vs the serpentis.
8 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Fa kɔbere yɛ saa awɔ yi mu baako sɛso na fa no sɛn abaa tenten bi so, na sɛ awɔ no bi ka obi na ɔhwɛ no a, ɔrenwu.”
And Moises preiede for the puple; and the Lord seide to hym, Make thou a serpent of bras, and sette thou it for a signe; he that is smytun and biholdith it, schal lyue.
9 Enti Mose yɛɛ ɔwɔ sɛso no, de sɛn dua tenten so. Na obiara a ɔwɔ no bi bɛka no no, sɛ ɔma nʼani so hwɛ no a, onwu.
Therfor Moyses made a serpent of bras, and settide for a signe; and men smytun and biholdynge it, weren heelid.
10 Israelfo no fi hɔ no, wɔtoaa wɔn akwantu no so kɔɔ Obot kɔtenaa hɔ.
And the sones of Israel yeden forth,
11 Afei, wɔtoaa so kɔɔ Iye-Haabarim wɔ sare so wɔ Moab apuei fam.
and settiden tentis in Oboth; fro whennus thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in Neabarym, in the wildirnesse, that biholdith Moab, ayens the eest coost.
12 Wofi hɔ no, wɔtoaa so kɔɔ asuwa Sered Subon mu kɔbɔɔ atenae wɔ hɔ.
And thei moueden fro thennus, and camen to the stronde of Zareth;
13 Afei, wotu fii hɔ kɔɔ Asubɔnten Arnon nkyɛn hɔ baabi a wɔne Amorifo bɔ hye. Asubɔnten Arnon na ɛyɛ ɔhye a ɛda Moabfo ne Amorifo ntam.
which thei leften, and settiden tentis ayens Arnon, which is in the deseert, and apperith in the coostis of Amorrei. Forsothe Arnon is the terme of Moab, and departith Moabitis and Ammoreis.
14 Ɛno nti na, wɔka wɔ Awurade akodi nhoma no mu se, asubɔnten Arnon subon ne kurow Waheb
Wherfor it is seid in the book of batels of the Lord, As he dide in the reed see, so he schal do in the strondis of Arnon;
15 da Amorifo ne Moabfo ntam.
the harde rochis of the strondis weren bowid, that tho schulen reste in Arnon, and schulden ligge in the coostis of Moabitis.
16 Israelfo no fi hɔ toaa wɔn akwantu no so kɔɔ Beer a ase ne “Abura.” Ɛha na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Frɛfrɛ nnipa no nyinaa bra na mɛma wɔn nsu.”
Fro that place the pit apperide, of which the Lord spak to Moyses, Gadere thou the puple, and Y schal yyue watir to it.
17 Ɛhɔ na Israelfo too dwom yi, “Tue Ao, Abura! To ho dwom!
Thanne Israel soong this song, The pit stie;
18 To dwom fa abura a mmapɔmma tutu no ho, sɛ nnipa mu akunini na wotitii mu; akunini a wokura ahempeaw ne pema.” Afei, Israelfo no fii sare no so kɔfaa Matana,
thei sungen togidere, The pit which the princes diggiden, and the duykis of the multitude maden redi, in the yyuere of the lawe, and in her stauys. And thei yeden forth fro the wildirnesse to Mathana,
19 Nahaliel ne Bamot,
fro Mathana to Naaliel, fro Naaliel in to Bamoth;
20 na wɔkɔɔ Pisga atifi a ɛwɔ Moab bon no mu, baabi a wugyina a wuhu asase tamaa no.
Bamoth is a valey in the cuntrey of Moab, in the cop of Phasga, that biholdith ayens the deseert.
21 Israelfo no tuu abɔfo ma wɔde nkra kɔmaa Amorihene Sihon se:
Forsothe Israel sente messangeris to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, and seide,
22 “Momma yentwa mu mfa mo man yi mu. Yɛbɛfa ɔtempɔn no so tee, na yɛremfi so kosi sɛ yɛbɛtra mo hye. Yɛrentiatia mo nnɔbae so, yɛremfa yɛn nsa nka mo bobe nturo, na yɛrennom mo abura mu nsu kosi sɛ yebefi mo man no mu.”
Y biseche that it be leueful to me to passe thorou thi loond; we schulen not bowe in to the feeldis and vyneris; we schulen not drynke watris of pittis; we schulen go in the kyngis weie, til we passen thi termes.
23 Nanso ɔhene Sihon ampene so. Na mmom, ɔboaboaa nʼakofo ano kɔtow hyɛɛ Israelfo no so wɔ sare so hɔ ne wɔn koo wɔ Yahas.
Which nolde graunte that Israel schulde passe thury hise coostis, but rather, whanne the oost was gaderid, he yede out ayens Israel, in to deseert. And he cam in to Yasa, and fauyt ayens Israel;
24 Nanso Israelfo no kunkum wɔn faa wɔn asase a efi Asubɔnten Arnon kosi asu Yabok ho toaa so kosii Amorifo ahye so a na bammɔ wɔ hɔ no.
of whom he was smytun in the scharpnesse of swerd, and his lond was weldid fro Arnon `til to Jeboth and `the sones of Amon; for the termes of Amonytis weren holdun bi strong help.
25 Israelfo no faa Amorifo no nkurow akɛse nyinaa a Hesbon kuropɔn ne ne nkuraase nyinaa ka ho tenaa mu.
Therfor Israel took alle `the citees of hym, and dwelliden in the citees of Amorrei, that is, in Esebon, and hise townes.
26 Na Hesbon yɛ Amorihene Sihon kuropɔn. Sihon na da bi ɔko tiaa Moabhene faa ne nsase nyinaa besii Asubɔnten Arnon no.
The citee of Esebon was Seons, kyng of Ammorei, which Seon fauyt ayens the kyng of Moab, and took al the lond that was of his lordschip, `til to Arnon.
27 Ne saa nti, tete anwensɛm kyerɛwfo kyerɛw eyi faa ne ho se, “Bra Hesbon, Sihon kuropɔn, yɛnkyekye na ensi ne dedaw mu.
Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, Come ye in to Esebon, be it bildid, and maad the citee of Seon;
28 “Ogya turuw fii Hesbon Ogyaframa fii Sihon ahenkurow mu, Ɛhyew Ar kuropɔn a ɛwɔ Moab; ɛsɛee kurowmma a wɔwɔ Arnon mmepɔw so.
fier yede out of Esebon, flawme yede out of the citee `ethir greet castel of Seon, and deuouryde Ar of Moabitis, and the dwelleris of the `hiye places of Arnon.
29 Ao Moabfo, mo sɛe bɛba mu! Wɔawie mo, mo a mosom Kemos! Wagyaw ne mmabarima sɛ atutenafo, Ne ne mmabea sɛ Amorihene Sihon nnommum.
Moab, wo to thee! thou, puple of Chamos, perischidist; it yaf the sones therof in to fliyt, and the douytris in to caitifte to Seon, kyng of Ammoreis;
30 “Yɛatu wɔn agu, efi Hesbon tɔnn kosi Dibon. Yɛasɛe wɔn ara akosi Nofa De kɔ ara kosi Medeba.”
the yok of hem perischide, fro Esebon `til to Dibon; the wery men camen in to Jophe, and `til to Medaba.
31 Enti Israelfo no tenaa Amorifo asase no so.
And so Israel dwellide in the lond of Ammorrey.
32 Mose somaa akwansrafo sɛ wɔnkɔsrasra Yaser fa mu hɔ. Ɔde asraafo toaa wɔn, faa wɔn nkurow nyinaa, pam Amorifo no.
And Moises sente men that schulden aspie Jaser, whos `townes thei token, and weldiden the dwelleris.
33 Afei, wɔde wɔn ani kyerɛɛ kurow kɛse Basan, nanso Basanhene Og de nʼasraafo hyiaa wɔn wɔ Edrei.
And thei turniden hem silf, and stieden bi the weie of Basan. And Og, the kyng of Basan, with al his puple cam ayens hem, to fiyte in Edray.
34 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Nsuro no, efisɛ mede nʼasraafo ne nʼasase nyinaa ahyɛ wo nsa. Yɛ no sɛnea woyɛɛ Amorihene Sihon a odii Hesbon so no.”
And the Lord seide to Moises, Drede thou not hym, for Y haue bitake hym, and al his loond, and puple, in thin hoond; and thou schalt do to hym as thou didist to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, the dwellere of Esebon.
35 Israelfo dii nkonim na wokum ɔhene Og ne ne mmabarima ne ne nkurɔfo nyinaa a anka wɔn mu baako mpo. Na Israelfo no faa nʼasase no.
Therfor thei smytiden `bothe hym with hise sones and al his puple, `til to deeth; and thei weldiden `the lond of hym.
