2 Mose 19
1 Anadwo a Israelfoɔ no tu firii Misraim no, nʼabosome mmiɛnsa so na wɔde kɔduruu Sinai ɛserɛ so.
Ngenyanga yesithathu emva kokuphuma kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli elizweni leGibhithe, ngalelolanga bafika enkangala yeSinayi.
2 Wɔtu firii Refidim no, wɔbɛduruu Sinai Bepɔ ase bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ hɔ. Mose foro kɔɔ bepɔ no so kɔhyiaa Onyankopɔn.
Sebesukile eRefidimi, bafika enkangala yeSinayi, bamisa inkamba enkangala; uIsrayeli wamisa-ke inkamba khona phambi kwentaba.
3 Mose kɔɔ Onyankopɔn nkyɛn wɔ bepɔ no so na Awurade frɛɛ no firii bepɔ no so kaa sɛ, “Ka saa nsɛm yi kyerɛ Yakob asefoɔ Israelman sɛ,
UMozisi wasesenyukela kuNkulunkulu. INkosi yasimemeza kuye esentabeni isithi: Uzakutsho njalo kuyo indlu kaJakobe, ubatshele abantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi:
4 ‘Moahunu deɛ meyɛɛ Misraimfoɔ no ne ɛkwan a menam so de mo baa me nkyɛn te sɛ deɛ na mote ɔkɔdeɛ ntaban so no.
Lina libonile lokho engikwenze kumaGibhithe, lokuthi ngalithwala phezu kwempiko zenkozi, ngaliletha kimi.
5 Sɛ mobɛtie me, na moadi mʼahyɛdeɛ so a, mobɛyɛ me nnwankuo ketewa wɔ asase so aman nyinaa mu, ɛfiri sɛ, asase nyinaa yɛ me dea.
Ngakho-ke uba lilalela lokulalela ilizwi lami, ligcine isivumelwano sami, khona lizakuba yimfuyo ekhethekileyo kimi kulazo zonke izizwe; ngoba umhlaba wonke ungowami;
6 Na mobɛyɛ asɔfoɔ ahemman a ɛyɛ ɔman kronkron ama Onyankopɔn.’ Saa nsɛm yi na ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no.”
njalo lizakuba ngumbuso wabapristi lesizwe esingcwele kimi. Yiwo lamazwi ozawatsho kubantwana bakoIsrayeli.
7 Mose siane firii bepɔ no so baeɛ no, ɔfrɛɛ mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua nnipa no ano nyinaa na ɔkaa asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no kyerɛɛ wɔn.
UMozisi wasesiza wabiza abadala babantu, wabeka phambi kwabo wonke la amazwi iNkosi emlaye wona.
8 Wɔtee asɛm no, wɔn nyinaa bɔ gyee so sɛ, “Yɛbɛyɛ biribiara a Awurade aka sɛ yɛnyɛ no nyinaa.” Enti, Mose kɔkaa nsɛm a nnipa no aka no kyerɛɛ Awurade.
Bonke abantu basebephendula kanyekanye bathi: Konke iNkosi ekukhulumileyo sizakwenza. UMozisi wasebuyisela amazwi abantu eNkosini.
9 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Merebɛba wo nkyɛn sɛ omununkum sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ na me ne wo kasa a, nnipa no bɛte me nne na ɛnam so ama wɔagye wo adi daa.
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Khangela, ngizakuza kuwe eyezini elinzima ukuze abantu bezwe nxa ngikhuluma lawe, lokuthi bakholwe kuwe kuze kube nininini. UMozisi wasebikela iNkosi amazwi abantu.
10 “Siane kɔ nnipa no nkyɛn na kɔhwɛ sɛ wɔasiesie wɔn ho rehwɛ me ɛkwan. Fa ɛnnɛ ne ɔkyena te wɔn ho. Ma wɔnsi wɔn nneɛma nyinaa.
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Hamba uye ebantwini, ubangcwelise lamuhla lakusasa, bawatshe izembatho zabo,
11 Na ɔkyena akyiri mɛsiane aba Sinai Bepɔ no so a ɔmanfoɔ nyinaa rehwɛ ɛkwan.
babe sebelungele usuku lwesithathu; ngoba ngosuku lwesithathu iNkosi izakwehla phambi kwamehlo abantu bonke phezu kwentaba yeSinayi.
12 Twitwa ahyeɛ sɛdeɛ nnipa no rentra na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Monhwɛ yie. Mommforo nkɔ bepɔ no atifi na monnkɔ nʼahyeɛ no nso so; obiara a ɔbɛbu saa mmara yi so no, ɔbɛwu.
Uzabamisela abantu umngcele inhlangothi zonke uthi: Ziqapheleni ukukhwela entabeni, lokuthinta ewatheni layo. Wonke othinta intaba uzabulawa lokubulawa.
13 Sɛ ɔyɛ onipa anaa a, obiara nsɔ ne mu. Na mmom, wɔbɛsi no aboɔ anaasɛ wɔbɛtoto agyan awowɔ no ama wawu.’ Montwe mo ho mfiri bepɔ no ho koraa kɔsi sɛ totorobɛnto bi bɛhyɛne ntwemu so; sɛ ɛba saa a, momforo nkɔ bepɔ no so!”
Kakulasandla esizayithinta, kodwa sibili uzakhandwa ngamatshe loba sibili uzatshokwa; loba inyamazana loba umuntu, kakuyikuphila. Lapho uphondo lwenqama lukhala isikhathi eside bazakwenyukela entabeni.
14 Mose siane firii bepɔ no so kɔɔ nnipa no nkyɛn kɔtee wɔn ho ma wɔsii wɔn nneɛma nyinaa.
UMozisi wasesehla entabeni waya ebantwini, wangcwelisa abantu, njalo bahlamba izembatho zabo.
15 Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monsiesie mo ho, na aka nnansa na Onyankopɔn aba, enti obiara nnkɔ ɔbaa ho.”
Wathi ebantwini: Lungelani usuku lwesithathu; lingasondeli kowesifazana.
16 Nnansa so anɔpa pɛpɛɛpɛ, aprannaa a ano yɛ den bobɔɔ mu, ma ayerɛmo pepaeɛ, ma omununkum kabii bi siane firii bepɔ no so. Totorobɛnto bi hyɛnee ntwemu so ma nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa ho popoeɛ.
Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu sekusile, kwakulemidumo lemibane leyezi elinzima phezu kwentaba, lelizwi lophondo olulamandla amakhulu; kwaze kwathi bonke abantu ababesenkambeni bathuthumela.
17 Mose dii nnipa no anim firi wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ sɛ wɔrekɔhyia Onyankopɔn. Wɔn nyinaa kɔboaa wɔn ho ano wɔ bepɔ no ase.
UMozisi wasebakhupha abantu enkambeni ukuyamhlangabeza uNkulunkulu; basebesima ngaphansi kwentaba.
18 Wisie kumɔnn kataa Sinai Bepɔ no so, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade siane baa so sɛ ogya. Wisie buaa ewiem nyinaa te sɛ deɛ ɛfiri fononoo mu, na asasewosoɔ wosoo bepɔ no dendeenden.
Intaba yonke-ke yeSinayi yathunqa intuthu, ngoba iNkosi yehlela phezu kwayo ngomlilo; njalo intuthu yayo yenyuka njengentuthu yesithando; intaba yonke yasizamazama kakhulu.
19 Totorobɛnto no hyɛnee dendeenden pa ara no, Mose kasaeɛ na Onyankopɔn nso de nne kɛseɛ buaeɛ.
Kwathi ilizwi lophondo liqhubeka lisiba lamandla amakhulu, uMozisi wakhuluma; njalo uNkulunkulu wamphendula ngelizwi.
20 Enti, Awurade baa Sinai Bepɔ no atifi, na ɔfrɛɛ Mose maa ɔforo kɔɔ ne nkyɛn.
INkosi yasisehlela entabeni yeSinayi, engqongeni yentaba; iNkosi yambizela uMozisi engqongeni yentaba; uMozisi wenyuka-ke.
21 Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Sane wʼakyi kɔ nnipa no nkyɛn na kɔbɔ wɔn kɔkɔ sɛ wɔnntra ahyeɛ no. Wɔnnyɛ wɔn adwene nso sɛ wɔreforo aba soro ha abɛhwɛ Awurade. Wɔn a wɔbɛyɛ saa no bɛwuwu.
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yehla, ubaxwayise abantu hlezi bafohlele eNkosini ukubona, njalo abanengi babo bawe.
22 Asɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ wɔn nnwuma so no mpo nnwira wɔn ho, anyɛ saa a, Awurade bɛsɛe wɔn.”
Labapristi labo abasondela eNkosini kabazingcwelise hlezi iNkosi ibadumele.
23 Mose nso buaa Awurade sɛ, “Nnipa no deɛ, wɔremforo mma bepɔ no atifi, ɛfiri sɛ, woabɔ wɔn kɔkɔ dada. Woka kyerɛɛ me sɛ mentwitwa ahyeɛ mfa bepɔ no ho na menka nkyerɛ nnipa no sɛ, obiara nnkɔ hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛhɔ yɛ Onyankopɔn dea.”
UMozisi wasesithi eNkosini: Abantu bangenyukele entabeni yeSinayi, ngoba wena usixwayisile usithi: Misa umngcele wentaba, uyingcwelise.
24 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Siane kɔ fam na kɔfa Aaron bra. Mma asɔfoɔ no ne nnipa no ntra ahyeɛ no sɛ wɔreba ha. Wɔyɛ saa a, mɛsɛe wɔn.”
INkosi yasisithi kuye: Hamba wehle, ubuye wenyuke, wena loAroni elawe; kodwa abapristi labantu kabangafohli benyukele eNkosini, hlezi ibadumele.
25 Enti, Mose siane kɔɔ bepɔ no ase kɔkaa asɛm a Onyankopɔn aka akyerɛ no no kyerɛɛ wɔn.
UMozisi wasesehlela ebantwini, wabatshela.
