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 the LORD said to Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou didst break.

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

And be ready in 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 tables of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.

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

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

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 the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness 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 mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, to the third and to the fourth generation.

8 Mose kotoo Awurade somm no.

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

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 grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thy 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 wonders, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will 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 goest, 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 destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:

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

For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, 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 go astray after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call 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 go astray after their gods, and make thy sons go astray after their gods.

17 “Monnsom ahoni biara.

Thou shalt 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.

The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out of from Egypt.

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

All that openeth the womb is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.

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.

But the firstling of a donkey thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou shalt not redeem him, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt 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 shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in time of plowing and in harvest thou shalt 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 shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.

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 shall all your males appear before the Lord GOD, 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 drive out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD 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 shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left until 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 firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring to the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in his 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 the LORD 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 the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. And he wrote upon the tables 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 tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses knew not that the skin of his face shone while he talked 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 children 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 talked with 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 children of Israel came near: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai.

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

And till Moses finished 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 the LORD to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out. And he came out, and spoke to the children 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 children 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.
