2 Mose 6

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Wobɛhunu deɛ mede bɛyɛ Farao. Menam me tumi so bɛhyɛ no na wama me nkurɔfoɔ no akɔ. Nokorɛm, mɛhyɛ no ama wapam wɔn afiri asase no so.”

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Now dost thou see that which I do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand he doth send them away, yea, with a strong hand he doth cast them out of his land.'

2 Na Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Mene Awurade no.

And God speaketh unto Moses, and saith unto him, 'I [am] Jehovah,

3 Meyii me ho adi kyerɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob sɛ Onyankopɔn tumfoɔ. Nanso, mammɔ me din sɛ Awurade no ankyerɛ wɔn.

and I appear unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty; as to My name Jehovah, I have not been known to them;

4 Na me ne wɔn hyehyɛɛ apam sɛ mede Kanaan asase a na tete no wɔte so sɛ ahɔhoɔ no bɛma wɔn ne wɔn asefoɔ.

and also I have established My covenant with them, to give to them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they have sojourned;

5 Afei, mate Israelfoɔ apinisie ne nya a Misraimfoɔ di wɔn no nyinaa na makae me ne wɔn apam no.

and also I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians are causing to serve, and I remember My covenant.

6 “Enti, ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Me, Awurade, menam me tumi so bɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ de ayi wɔn afiri nkoasom mu ama wɔade wɔn ho.

'Therefore say to the sons of Israel, I [am] Jehovah, and I have brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and have delivered you from their service, and have redeemed you by a stretched-out arm, and by great judgments,

7 Mɛgye wɔn atom sɛ me nkurɔfoɔ na mayɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn. Na wɔbɛhunu sɛ mene Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn a wagye wɔn afiri Misraimfoɔ nsam no.

and have taken you to Me for a people, and I have been to you for God, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah your God, who is bringing you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians;

8 Mede wɔn bɛba asase a mehyɛɛ bɔ sɛ mede bɛma Abraham, Isak ne Yakob no so. Saa asase no bɛyɛ mo agyapadeɛ. Mene Awurade no.’”

and I have brought you in unto the land which I have lifted up My hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, and have given it to you — a possession; I [am] Jehovah.'

9 Enti, Mose kaa asɛm a Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no no kyerɛɛ nnipa no, nanso wɔantie, ɛsiane abasamutuo a ɛfiri ɔhyɛ ntrasoɔ enti.

And Moses speaketh so unto the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not unto Moses, for anguish of spirit, and for harsh service.

10 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

11 “Sane kɔ Farao nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛ no sɛ ɔmma Israelfoɔ no ɛkwan na wɔnkɔ.”

'Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he doth send the sons of Israel out of his land;

12 Nanso, Mose kaa sɛ, “Dabi, afei deɛ, me ara me nkurɔfoɔ no rentie asɛm a mɛka biara bio. Na mʼano nso nteeɛ yi, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi akasa ama atɔ Farao asom?”

and Moses speaketh before Jehovah, saying, 'Lo, the sons of Israel have not hearkened unto me, and how doth Pharaoh hear me, and I of uncircumcised lips?'

13 Afei, Awurade hyɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ wɔnsane nkɔ Israelfoɔ no ne Farao a ɔyɛ Misraimfoɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn nkɔka nkyerɛ no sɛ ɔmma Israelfoɔ no ɛkwan na wɔmfiri Misraim asase so nkɔ.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and chargeth them for the sons of Israel, and for Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt.
