2 Mose 34

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Yɛ aboɔ twerɛ apono mmienu te sɛ deɛ woyɛɛ kane no na mɛtwerɛ mmara korɔ no ara sɛdeɛ na ɛwɔ deɛ wobubuu mu no so ara pɛ ama wo.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Hew thee two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write upon the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which thou broke.

2 Siesie wo ho na bra Sinai Bepɔ so anɔpa na fa wo ho bɛkyerɛ me.

And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me on the top of the mount.

3 Mfa obiara nka wo ho na ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara bɛn bepɔ no ho baabiara. Mma mmoa biara nkɔ adidi mmɛn bepɔ no.”

And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount, neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.

4 Enti, Mose twaa twerɛ apono mmienu te sɛ kane deɛ no de kɔɔ Sinai Bepɔ so anɔpahema sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.

And he hewed two tablets of stone like the first. And Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to mount Sinai, as Jehovah had commanded him, and took in his hand two tablets of stone.

5 Awurade siane baa sɛ omununkum fadum bɛgyinaa Mose ho bɔɔ ne din kronkron Awurade no.

And Jehovah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Jehovah.

6 Awurade faa nʼanim frɛɛ no kaa sɛ, “Me, Awurade, Onyankopɔn mmɔborɔhunufoɔ ne ɔdomfoɔ a me bo kyɛre fu na mewɔ ɔdɔ na medi nokorɛ nso;

And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth,

7 me Awurade, me dɔ nnipa mpempem na mede atirimuɔden, atuateɛ ne bɔne kyɛ. Metwe afɔdie aso na metwe Agyanom, mma ne mmanananom kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ mmiɛnsa ne ɛnan aso.”

keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, and upon the sons's sons, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

8 Mose kotoo Awurade somm no.

And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped.

9 Ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɛyɛ nokorɛ pa ara sɛ woagye me atom deɛ a, Ao Awurade, wo ne yɛnkɔ bɔhyɛ asase no so. Saa nnipa yi yɛ asoɔden deɛ, nanso fa yɛn bɔne kyɛ yɛn na gye yɛn sɛ wo ara wo nnipa.”

And he said, If now I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in the midst of us, for it is a stiff-necked people, and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.

10 Awurade buaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, me ne wo bɛyɛ nhyehyɛeɛ bi. Merebɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ bi a ebi nsii asase so da, na ɛnam so ama Israelfoɔ nyinaa ahunu tumi a Awurade wɔ. Menam wo so na mɛyɛ saa tumideɛ no.

And he said, Behold, I make a covenant. Before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth, nor in any nation, and all the people among which thou are shall see the work of Jehovah, for it is an awesome thing that I do with thee.

11 Wo fam deɛ a wobɛyɛ ara ne sɛ, wobɛtie nsɛm a mɛhyɛ wo no na woayɛ ne nyinaa; na sɛ ɛba saa a, mɛpam Amorifoɔ, Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ no nyinaa afiri wʼanim.

Observe thou that which I command thee this day. Behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

12 Hwɛ wo ho so yie pa ara na wo ne ɔman a worekɔ mu no mufoɔ ampam, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ woyɛ saa a, ɛbɛma wo nso woayɛ nnebɔne a wɔyɛ no bi.

Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where thou go, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee.

13 Bubu wɔn abosonsom afɔrebukyia no. Sɛe wɔn aboɔ adum no na montutu wɔn abosom no ngu.

But ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their Asherim,

14 Na monnsom onyame foforɔ biara nka Awurade ho, na ɔno nko ara ne Onyankopɔn a ɛsɛ sɛ mosom no.

for thou shall worship no other god. For Jehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

15 “Wone onipa biara a ɔte asase no so nnyɛ asomdwoeɛ apam biara, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnni me nokorɛ, na wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ ma wɔn anyame de tia me. Sɛ wo ne wɔn fa yɔnko a, wɔbɛto nsa afrɛ wo sɛ ma yɛnkɔsom yɛn anyame na anhwɛ yie a, wobɛkɔ.

Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the harlot after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and a man calls thee and thou eat of his sacrifice,

16 Afei, ɛyɛ saa a, mobɛgye wɔn mmammaa aware ama mo mmammarima no akɔsom wɔn yerenom no anyame bi de atia me.

and thou take of their daughters to thy sons, and their daughters play the harlot after their gods, and make thy sons play the harlot after their gods.

17 “Monnsom ahoni biara.

Thou shall make thee no molten gods.

18 “Bɔ mmɔden sɛ wɔbɛdi Apiti Afahyɛ no nnanson sɛdeɛ meka kyerɛɛ wo no. Di no afe biara mu ɔbosome Abib (Yudafoɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan) mu. Saa bosome no mu na motu firii Misraim.

Thou shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days thou shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib, for in the month Abib thou came out from Egypt.

19 “Abakan biara yɛ me dea, sɛ ɛyɛ nantwie, odwan anaa abirekyie.

All that opens the womb is mine, and all thy cattle that is male, the firstlings of cow and sheep.

20 Afunumu ba a ɔyɛ abakan deɛ, wɔmfa no nsesa odwammaa. Na sɛ wompɛ sɛ wode no di nsesa deɛ a, bu ne kɔn mu. Mo mmammarima deɛ, monsesa wɔn nyinaa. “Obiara mma mʼanim a ɔnkura akyɛdeɛ bi.

And the firstling of a donkey thou shall redeem with a lamb, and if thou will not redeem it, then thou shall break its neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.

21 “Nnansia pɛ na momfa nyɛ adwuma. Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no deɛ, monnni dwuma biara. Ofuntumberɛ anaa otwaberɛ mpo, momfa nna nsia nyɛ adwuma. Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, monhome.

Six days thou shall work, but on the seventh day thou shall rest; in plowing time and in harvest thou shall rest.

22 “Monkae na monni saa afahyɛ mmiɛnsa a ɛwɔ afe mu no nyinaa. Yeinom ne: Otwaberɛ Afahyɛ (anaasɛ Pentekoste), Atokoɔ a ɛdi ɛkan Afahyɛ ne Otwa Afahyɛ.

And thou shall observe the feast of weeks, even of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering in the middle of the year.

23 Saa afahyɛ mmiɛnsa yi mu biara duru so a, ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ mmarima ne mmarimaa nyinaa ba Awurade wo Onyankopɔn anim.

Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the lord Jehovah, the God of Israel.

24 Sɛ mokɔ Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, anim saa mprɛnsa no nyinaa afe biara mu a, obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛtoa mo abɛdi mo asase no so. Mɛpam saa aman no wɔ mo anim na matrɛ mo ahyeɛ mu.

For I will cast out nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders. Neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou go up to appear before Jehovah thy God three times in the year.

25 “Mommfa burodo a mmɔreka wɔ mu mmɔ me afɔdeɛ. Na Twam Afahyɛ ɛnam no nso, mommfa bi nsi hɔ mma adeɛ nkye so.

Thou shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread, nor shall the sacrifice of the feast of the Passover be left to the morning.

26 “Sɛ motwa mo mfudeɛ a, momfa otwakane mu nyiyimu a ɛsɔ ani mmrɛ me; wɔde bɛma Awurade mo Onyankopɔn. “Nnoa abirekyie ba wɔ ne maame nufosuo mu.”

The first of the first-fruits of thy ground thou shall bring to the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

27 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Twerɛ saa mmara a mede ama wo yi nyinaa gu hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛgyina hɔ ma me ne wo ne Israel apam.”

And Jehovah said to Moses, Write thou these words, for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.

28 Mose ne Awurade de adaduanan, awia ne anadwo, dii nkutaho wɔ bepɔ no so, na saa ɛberɛ no, Mose annidi annom. Saa ɛberɛ no, Onyankopɔn twerɛɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no guu ɛboɔ twerɛpono so.

And he was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights. He neither ate bread, nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

29 Ɛberɛ a Mose de twerɛ apono no fi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn resiane bepɔ no, na ɔnnim sɛ nʼanim rehyerɛn.

And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.

30 Esiane nʼanim hyerɛn a na ɛhyerɛn no enti, Aaron ne Israelfoɔ no hunuu Mose no, wɔsuroeɛ sɛ wɔbɛbɛn no.

And when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him.

31 Nanso, Mose frɛɛ wɔn baa ne nkyɛn maa Aaron ne ɔman no mu ntuanofoɔ ne no bɛkasaeɛ.

And Moses called to them. And Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him, and Moses spoke to them.

32 Akyire no, nnipa no nyinaa baa ne nkyɛn maa ɔde mmaransɛm a Awurade de maa no wɔ bepɔ no so hɔ no maa wɔn.

And afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that Jehovah had spoken with him on mount Sinai.

33 Mose ne wɔn kasa wieeɛ no, ɔde nkatanimu kataa nʼanim,

And when Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.

34 na ɛberɛ biara a ɔbɛkɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu hɔ ne Awurade akɔkasa no, ɔyi nkatanimu no kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛsane aba bio; ɔba saa a, asɛm biara a Onyankopɔn aka akyerɛ no no, na ɔno nso aka akyerɛ nnipa no

But when Moses went in before Jehovah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out. And he came out, and spoke to the sons of Israel that which he was commanded.

35 a wɔhunu sɛ nʼanim ayɛ hyerɛn. Akyire no, ɔde nkatanimu no kata nʼanim bio kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛkɔ Onyankopɔn nkyɛn na ɔne no akɔkasa.

And the sons of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone. And Moses put the veil upon his face again until he went in to speak with him.
