2 Mose 7
1 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Mayi wo sɛ mʼananmusini wɔ Farao anim na Aaron ayɛ wo ɔkyeame.
And the LORD said to Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
2 Asɛm biara a mɛka akyerɛ wo no, ka kyerɛ Aaron, na ɔno nso nka nkyerɛ Farao sɛ ɔmma Israelfoɔ no ɛkwan na wɔmfiri Misraim.
Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.
3 Na nna no mu, mɛma Farao ayɛ akomaden, na mayɛ anwanwadeɛ ahodoɔ bebree wɔ Misraim.
And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 Anwanwadeɛ ahodoɔ no akyiri, ɔbɛkɔ so ayɛ akomaden ara, enti mɛtɔre wɔn ase na madi me manfoɔ anim, ayi wɔn afiri asase no so.
But Pharaoh shall not hearken to you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 Na sɛ mekyerɛ me tumi kyerɛ Misraimfoɔ no a, wɔbɛhunu sɛ, nokorɛ, mene Awurade no, na wɔama me nkurɔfoɔ no ɛkwan ama wɔakɔ.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
6 Enti, Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ wɔn no.
And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded them, so did they.
7 Ɛberɛ a Mose ne Aaron kɔhyiaa Farao no, na Mose adi mfeɛ aduɔwɔtwe, ɛnna Aaron nso adi mfeɛ aduɔwɔtwe mmiɛnsa.
And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty and three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ,
And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
9 “Farao bɛhwehwɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ akyerɛ no ama wahunu sɛ, nokorɛ, Onyankopɔn na wasoma mo. Sɛ ɔbisa saa a, Aaron nto ne poma no ntwene fam na ɛbɛdane ɔwɔ.”
When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Show a miracle for you: then thou shalt say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.
10 Enti, Mose ne Aaron kɔɔ Farao nkyɛn kɔyɛɛ anwanwadeɛ no sɛdeɛ Awurade akyerɛ wɔn no. Aaron too ne poma no twenee fam wɔ Farao ne ne nkurɔfoɔ anim ma ɛdanee ɔwɔ.
And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Farao nso frɛɛ nʼanyansafoɔ ne ne nkonyaayifoɔ a wɔwɔ Misraim ma wɔn nso bɛyɛɛ anwanwadeɛ korɔ no ara bi.
Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 Wɔn nso, wɔn poma tumi danee ɔwɔ. Nanso, Aaron ɔwɔ no menee wɔn deɛ no.
For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 Farao kɔɔ so yɛɛ akomaden a na ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔtie asɛm a Awurade kaeɛ no.
And he hardened Pharaoh’s heart, that he hearkened not to them; as the LORD had said.
14 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Farao apirim nʼakoma enti, ɔbɛkɔ so asi nnipa no ɛkwan sɛ ɔremma wɔnkɔ.
And the LORD said to Moses, Pharaoh’s heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go.
15 Nanso Awurade kaa sɛ: Sane kɔ Farao nkyɛn anɔpa a ɔrekɔ asubɔnten no mu. Kɔgyina asuo no konkɔn so na hyia no wɔ hɔ a wo poma a ɛdanee ɔwɔ no kura wo.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out to the water; and thou shalt stand by the river’s brink to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thy hand.
16 Ka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Awurade, Hebrifoɔ Onyankopɔn asane asoma me wo nkyɛn sɛ ma nnipa no ɛkwan na wɔnkɔ nkɔsom me wɔ ɛserɛ so. Woayɛ asoɔden.
And thou shalt say to him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me to thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, until now thou wouldest not hear.
17 Afei, Awurade se: Wobɛhunu sɛ, mene Awurade no. Ɛfiri sɛ, maka akyerɛ Mose sɛ ɔmfa ne poma no mmɔ Nil nsuo no mu na nsuo no bɛdane mogya.
Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in my hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18 Nsuomnam a wɔwɔ asubɔnten no mu nyinaa bɛwuwu ama nsuo no abɔn a Misraimfoɔ no rentumi nnom.’”
And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.
19 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ Aaron na ɔmfa ne poma no nkyerɛ nsuo a ɛwɔ Misraim no nyinaa; wɔn nsubɔntene, wɔn nsuwa, wɔn atadeɛ ne wɔn nsuo a ɛtaataa hɔ ne nsuo a ɛwɔ afie mu nyinaa so na ɛbɛdane mogya.”
And the LORD spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and that there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.
20 Enti, Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no. Ɛberɛ a Farao ne ne mpanimfoɔ gyinagyina hɔ rehwɛ wɔn no, Aaron de poma no bɔɔ Nil ani maa asubɔnten no danee mogya.
And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned into blood.
21 Nsuomnam a wɔwɔ mu nyinaa wuwuiɛ maa nsuo no bɔnee enti, na Misraimfoɔ no ntumi nnom. Misraim asase so nyinaa danee mogya.
And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
22 Nkonyaayifoɔ a wɔwɔ Misraim nso nam wɔn nkonyaayie so maa nsuo danee mogya enti, Farao kɔɔ so pirim nʼakoma a na ɔntie asɛm a Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ wɔnka nkyerɛ no no.
And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, neither did he hearken to them; as the LORD had said.
23 Ɔsane kɔɔ nʼahemfie a hwee ampusu no.
And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he set his heart to this also.
24 Misraimfoɔ no tutuu nsubura wɔ asubɔnten no konkɔn so sɛdeɛ wɔbɛnya nsuo anom, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔntumi nsa nsuo wɔ asubɔnten no mu.
And all the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
25 Asubɔnten a ɛdanee mogya no dii nnawɔtwe.
And seven days were fulfilled, after that the LORD had smitten the river.
