1 Ɛda bi na Mose rehwɛ nʼase Yetro a ɔyɛ Midian ɔsɔfoɔ nnwan. Ɔde nnwan no wuraa ɛserɛ no mu kɔɔ akyirikyiri kɔduruu Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no so.

And Moses he was pasturing [the] flock of Jethro father-in-law his [the] priest of Midian and he drove the flock behind the wilderness and he came to [the] mountain of God Horeb towards.

2 Prɛko pɛ, na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ daa ne ho adi sɛ gyaframa wɔ wira no mu kyerɛɛ no. Mose hunuu sɛ wira no redɛre nanso na ɛnhye.

And he appeared [the] angel of Yahweh to him in a flame of fire from [the] middle of the bush and he saw and there! the bush [was] burning with fire and the bush not it [was] consumed.

3 Enti, Mose kaa sɛ, “Mɛkɔ akɔhwɛ anwanwadeɛ yi ahunu deɛ enti a wira no nhye.”

And he said Moses I will turn aside please so I may see the sight great this why? not is it burning the bush.

4 Ɛberɛ a Awurade hunuu sɛ ɔrekɔhwɛ no, ɔfrɛɛ no firii wira no mu sɛ, “Mose! Mose!” Mose gyee so sɛ, “Me nie.”

And he saw Yahweh that he had turned aside to look and he called to him God from [the] middle of the bush and he said O Moses Moses and he said here [am] I.

5 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mmɛn me. Yi wo nan mu mpaboa na baabi a wogyina no yɛ asase kronkron.”

And he said may not you draw near here take off sandals your from on feet your for the place which you [are] standing on it [is] ground of holiness it.

6 Ɔtoaa so sɛ, “Mene wʼagyanom Onyankopɔn—Abraham Onyankopɔn, Isak Onyankopɔn ne Yakob Onyankopɔn.” Mose kataa nʼanim, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔsuro sɛ ɔbɛhwɛ Onyankopɔn anim.

And he said I [am] [the] God of father your [the] God of Abraham [the] God of Isaac and [the] God of Jacob and he hid Moses face his for he was afraid from looking to God.

7 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mahunu amanehunu a me manfoɔ a wɔwɔ Misraim no wɔ mu, na mate wɔn nkotosrɛ a ɛfa wɔn nnwuma wuranom ho, na menim wɔn ahohiahia.

And he said Yahweh certainly I have seen [the] affliction of people my which [is] in Egypt and cry of distress their I have heard because of taskmasters its for I know pains its.

8 Maba sɛ merebɛgye wɔn afiri Misraimfoɔ nsam na mayi wɔn afiri Misraim asase so de wɔn akɔ asase pa so—asase a ɛtrɛ; asase a ɛwoɔ ne nufosuo wɔ so—asase a Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Amorifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ te soɔ no so.

And I have come down to deliver it - from [the] hand of Egypt and to bring up it from the land that into a land good and spacious into a land flowing of milk and honey to [the] place of the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s].

9 Mate Israelfoɔ no su, na mahunu nya a Misraimfoɔ di wɔn no.

And now there! [the] cry of distress of [the] people of Israel it has come to me and also I have seen the oppression which Egypt [are] oppressing them.

10 Afei, merebɛsoma wo akɔ Farao nkyɛn, akɔyi me ɔman Israel afiri Misraim.”

And therefore go! and I will send you to Pharaoh and bring out people my [the] people of Israel from Egypt.

11 Mose bisaa sɛ, “Mene hwan a mɛtumi akɔ Farao anim akɔka sɛ merebɛyi Israelfoɔ afiri Misraim asase so?”

And he said Moses to God who? [am] I that I will go to Pharaoh and that I will bring out [the] people of Israel from Egypt.

12 Onyankopɔn buaa no sɛ, “Mɛka wo ho. Adansedeɛ a ɛkyerɛ sɛ me na masoma wo no nie. Sɛ woyi nnipa no firi Misraim a, mobɛsom Onyankopɔn wɔ saa bepɔ yi so.”

And he said that I will be with you and this for you [will be] the sign that I I sent you when bringing out you the people from Egypt you will serve! God on the mountain this.

13 Mose bisaa sɛ, “Sɛ mekɔ Israelfoɔ no nkyɛn kɔka sɛ, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn na wasoma me na wɔbisa me sɛ. ‘Onyankopɔn bɛn na mereka ne ho asɛm no’ a, mmuaeɛ bɛn na memfa mma wɔn?”

And he said Moses to God here! I [am] about to go to [the] people of Israel and I will say to them [the] God of ancestors your he has sent me to you and they will say to me what? [is] name his what? will I say to them.

14 Ɔbuaa Mose sɛ, ka sɛ, “Mene deɛ ɔwɔ hɔ daa no. Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Me Ara na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.’”

And he said God to Moses I am [that] which I am and he said thus you will say to [the] people of Israel I am he has sent me to you.

15 Onyankopɔn toaa so sɛ, “Awurade a ɔyɛ mo nananom Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Onyankopɔn na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.” Yei ne me edin a wɔde bɛkae me ɛda biara firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so.

And he said again God to Moses thus you will say to [the] people of Israel Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your [the] God of Abraham [the] God of Isaac and [the] God of Jacob he has sent me to you this [is] name my for ever and this [is] memorial my to a generation generation.

16 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Frɛ Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ nyinaa hyia na ka hunu a wohunuu Awurade wɔ wira a na ɛredɛre mu no kyerɛ wɔn. Afei, ka asɛm a meka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ, ‘Makɔsra me nkurɔfoɔ na mahunu deɛ aba wɔn so wɔ Misraim no kyerɛ wɔn.

Go and you will gather [the] elders of Israel and you will say to them Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your he appeared to me [the] God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob saying certainly I have observed you and the [thing] done to you in Egypt.

17 Mehyɛ bɔ sɛ mɛyi wɔn afiri amanehunu ne animguaseɛ a wɔwɔ mu no mu na mede wɔn akɔ asase a Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Amorifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ te so ɛnnɛ yi a ɛwoɔ ne nufosuo wɔ so no so.’

And I have said I will bring up you from [the] affliction of Egypt into [the] land of the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s] into a land flowing of milk and honey.

18 “Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ bɛtie wʼasɛm na wɔne wo akɔ Misraimhene hɔ akɔka akyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Awurade, Hebrifoɔ Onyankopɔn, ne yɛn ahyia na waka akyerɛ yɛn sɛ, yɛntu nnansa ɛkwan nkɔ ɛserɛ so nkɔbɔ afɔdeɛ mma no. Enti, ma yɛn ɛkwan.’

And they will listen to voice your and you will go you and [the] elders of Israel to [the] king of Egypt and you will say to him Yahweh [the] God of the Hebrews he has met with us and therefore let us go please a journey of three days in the wilderness and let us sacrifice to Yahweh God our.

19 Nanso, menim sɛ Misraimhene remma mo ɛkwan da, gye sɛ wɔhyɛ no ketee.

And I I know that not he will permit you [the] king of Egypt to go and not by a hand strong.

20 Enti, mɛhyɛ no ketee sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ. Menam anwanwakwan so bɛsɛe Misraim na akyire no, wama mo akɔ.

And I will stretch out hand my and I will strike Egypt with all wonders my which I will do in midst its and after thus he will let go you.

21 “Mɛma mo anim aba nyam Misraimfoɔ no anim na wɔahyehyɛ akyɛdeɛ ama mo, na moankɔ no nsapan.

And I will give [the] favor of the people this in [the] eyes of Egypt and it will be that you will go! not you will go empty.

22 Ɔbaa biara mmisa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ adwinneɛ ne ntoma pa mfiri nʼafipamfoɔ ne ne fiefoɔ mmaa nkyɛn na wɔmfa nsiesie wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn mmammaa ho. Wɔnam saa yɛ so bɛpansam Misraimfoɔ ahonyadeɛ te sɛ deɛ wɔafom asadeɛ.”
