4 Mose 21
1 Arad ɔhene a ɔyɛ Kanaanni a ɔte Negeb tee sɛ Israelfoɔ nam Atarim ɛkwan so reba. Ɔboaboaa nʼakodɔm ano kɔto hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ no so kyekyeree binom sɛ nneduafoɔ.
And whanne Chananei, the kyng of Arad, that dwellide at the south, hadde herd this, that is, that Israel cam bi the weye of aspieris, he fauyt ayens hem; and Chananei was ouercomere and ledde pray of Israel.
2 Afei, Israelfoɔ no kaa ntam kyerɛɛ Awurade sɛ, sɛ ɔbɛboa wɔn ama wɔadi Arad ɔhene ne de dɔm so a, anka wɔbɛgu nkuro akɛseɛ a ɛwɔ hɔ nyinaa.
And Israel bounde hym sylf bi avow to the Lord, and seide, If thou schalt bitake this puple in myn hond, Y schal do awei `the citees therof.
3 Awurade tiee wɔn abisadeɛ no, enti ɔmaa wɔdii Kanaanfoɔ no so; Israelfoɔ no sɛee wɔn ne wɔn nkuro akɛseɛ pasaa. Wɔtoo hɔ edin Horma a aseɛ ne “Ɔsɛeɛ.”
And the Lord herde the preieris of Israel, and bitook the Chananey; and Israel killid hym, and distruyede hise citees; and clepide the name of that place Horma, that is, cursyng, `ethir hangyng up.
4 Afei, Israelfoɔ no sane kɔɔ Bepɔ Hor so. Wɔfiri hɔ no, wɔkɔɔ anafoɔ fam ɛkwan a ɛkɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no so no so sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔbɛtumi atwa kanko afa Edom ho. Nnipa no aba mu buiɛ.
`Forsothe thei yeden forth also fro the hil of Hor, bi the weie that ledith to the reed see, that thei schulden cumpasse the lond of Edom; and it bigan to anoye the puple, of the weie and trauel.
5 Wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ nwiinwii tiaa Onyankopɔn enti wɔkaa wɔn ahiasɛm kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woayi yɛn afiri Misraim de yɛn aba sɛ yɛmmɛwuwu ɛserɛ yi so? Aduane a yɛbɛdie nni ha. Nsuo a yɛbɛnom nso nni ha. Mana yi nso deɛ, afono yɛn.”
And the puple spak ayens the Lord and Moises, and seide, Whi leddist thou vs out of Egipt, that we schulden die in wildirnesse? breed failith, watris ben not; oure soule wlatith now on this `meete moost liyt.
6 Enti, Awurade maa awɔ a wɔn ano wɔ borɔ yie kɔkekaa wɔn mu bebree ma wɔwuwuiɛ.
Wherfor the Lord sente `firid serpentis in to the puple; at the woundis of whiche serpentis, and the dethis of ful many men,
7 Afei, nnipa no baa Mose nkyɛn bɛsrɛɛ sɛ, “Yɛayɛ bɔne, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛakasa atia Awurade ne wo. Bɔ mpaeɛ kyerɛ Awurade na awɔ no nkɔ.” Mose bɔɔ mpaeɛ maa nnipa no.
thei camen to Moyses, and seiden, We synneden, for we spaken ayens the Lord and thee; preie thou, that he take awey fro vs the serpentis.
8 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Fa kɔbere yɛ saa awɔ yi mu baako sɛso na fa no sɛn poma bi so, na sɛ awɔ no bi ka obi na onii no hwɛ no kɛkɛ a, ɔrenwu.”
And Moises preiede for the puple; and the Lord seide to hym, Make thou a serpent of bras, and sette thou it for a signe; he that is smytun and biholdith it, schal lyue.
9 Enti, Mose yɛɛ ɔwɔ sɛso no; na obiara a ɔwɔ no bi bɛka no no, sɛ ɔpagya nʼani hwɛ no a, ɔnwu.
Therfor Moyses made a serpent of bras, and settide for a signe; and men smytun and biholdynge it, weren heelid.
10 Israelfoɔ no firi hɔ no, wɔtoaa wɔn akwantuo no so kɔɔ Obot kɔtenaa hɔ.
And the sones of Israel yeden forth,
11 Afei, wɔtoaa so kɔɔ Iye-Abarim wɔ ɛserɛ so wɔ Moab apueeɛ fam.
and settiden tentis in Oboth; fro whennus thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in Neabarym, in the wildirnesse, that biholdith Moab, ayens the eest coost.
12 Wɔfiri hɔ no, wɔtoaa so kɔɔ asuwa Sered Subɔnhwa mu kɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ hɔ.
And thei moueden fro thennus, and camen to the stronde of Zareth;
13 Afei, wɔtu kɔɔ akyirikyiri fam wɔ Asubɔnten Arnon nkyɛn hɔ baabi a wɔne Amorifoɔ bɔ hyeɛ. Asubɔnten Arnon na ɛyɛ ɛhyeɛ a ɛda Moabfoɔ ne Amorifoɔ ntam.
which thei leften, and settiden tentis ayens Arnon, which is in the deseert, and apperith in the coostis of Amorrei. Forsothe Arnon is the terme of Moab, and departith Moabitis and Ammoreis.
14 Enti, wɔkaa saa asɛm yi wɔ Awurade akodie nwoma no mu sɛ, asubɔnten Arnon subɔnhwa ne kuro Waheb
Wherfor it is seid in the book of batels of the Lord, As he dide in the reed see, so he schal do in the strondis of Arnon;
15 da Amorifoɔ ne Moabfoɔ ntam.
the harde rochis of the strondis weren bowid, that tho schulen reste in Arnon, and schulden ligge in the coostis of Moabitis.
16 Afei, Israelfoɔ no toaa wɔn akwantuo no so kɔɔ Beer a aseɛ ne “Abura.” Ɛha na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Frɛfrɛ nnipa no nyinaa bra na mɛma wɔn nsuo.”
Fro that place the pit apperide, of which the Lord spak to Moyses, Gadere thou the puple, and Y schal yyue watir to it.
17 Ɛhɔ na Israelfoɔ too dwom sɛ, “Tue Ao, Abura! To ho dwom!
Thanne Israel soong this song, The pit stie;
18 To abura yi ho dwom, mmapɔmma na wɔtuiɛ; na akunini titii mu wɔde wɔn ahempoma ne wɔn poma.” Afei, Israelfoɔ no firii ɛserɛ no so kɔfaa Matana,
thei sungen togidere, The pit which the princes diggiden, and the duykis of the multitude maden redi, in the yyuere of the lawe, and in her stauys. And thei yeden forth fro the wildirnesse to Mathana,
19 Nahaliel ne Bamot.
fro Mathana to Naaliel, fro Naaliel in to Bamoth;
20 Afei wɔkɔɔ Pisga atifi a ɛwɔ Moab bɔnhwa no mu, baabi a wogyina a wohunu asase tamaa no.
Bamoth is a valey in the cuntrey of Moab, in the cop of Phasga, that biholdith ayens the deseert.
21 Afei, Israelfoɔ tuu abɔfoɔ ma wɔde nkra yi kɔmaa Amorifoɔhene Sihon sɛ:
Forsothe Israel sente messangeris to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, and seide,
22 “Momma yɛntwa mu mfa mo ɔman yi mu. Yɛbɛfa ɛkwan tempɔn so, na yɛremfiri so kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛtra mo hyeɛ. Yɛrentiatia mo mfudeɛ so, yɛremfa yɛn nsa nka mo bobe nturo, na yɛrennom mo abura mu nsuo.”
Y biseche that it be leueful to me to passe thorou thi loond; we schulen not bowe in to the feeldis and vyneris; we schulen not drynke watris of pittis; we schulen go in the kyngis weie, til we passen thi termes.
23 Nanso ɔhene Sihon ampene so. Na mmom, ɔboaboaa nʼakodɔm ano kɔto hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ so wɔ ɛserɛ so hɔ ne wɔn koo wɔ Yahas.
Which nolde graunte that Israel schulde passe thury hise coostis, but rather, whanne the oost was gaderid, he yede out ayens Israel, in to deseert. And he cam in to Yasa, and fauyt ayens Israel;
24 Nanso Israelfoɔ no kunkumm wɔn faa wɔn asase a ɛfiri Asubɔnten Arnon kɔsi asuo Yabok ho toaa so kɔsii Amorifoɔ ahyeɛ so, nanso wɔkɔhyiaa Amon mma ahoɔdenfoɔ bi a wɔakyere sraban enti wɔantumi anko ankɔ wɔn anim bio.
of whom he was smytun in the scharpnesse of swerd, and his lond was weldid fro Arnon `til to Jeboth and `the sones of Amon; for the termes of Amonytis weren holdun bi strong help.
25 Enti Israelfoɔ no faa Amorifoɔ no nkuro akɛseɛ nyinaa a Hesbon kuropɔn ne ne nkuraase nyinaa ka ho tenaa mu.
Therfor Israel took alle `the citees of hym, and dwelliden in the citees of Amorrei, that is, in Esebon, and hise townes.
26 Na Hesbon yɛ Amorifoɔhene Sihon Kuropɔn. Sihon na ɛda bi ɔko tiaa Moabhene faa ne nsase nyinaa bɛsii Asubɔnten Arnon no.
The citee of Esebon was Seons, kyng of Ammorei, which Seon fauyt ayens the kyng of Moab, and took al the lond that was of his lordschip, `til to Arnon.
27 Ne sei enti tete, anwensɛm twerɛfoɔ twerɛɛ yei faa ne ho sɛ, “Bra Hesbon, Sihon kuropɔn, yɛnkyekyere na ɛnsi ne dada mu.
Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, Come ye in to Esebon, be it bildid, and maad the citee of Seon;
28 “Egya turi firii Hesbon Ogyaframa firii Sihon ahenkuro mu, Ɛhyee Ar kuropɔn a ɛwɔ Moab; ɛsɛee sodifoɔ a wɔwɔ Arnon mmepɔ so.
fier yede out of Esebon, flawme yede out of the citee `ethir greet castel of Seon, and deuouryde Ar of Moabitis, and the dwelleris of the `hiye places of Arnon.
29 Ao Moabfoɔ, mosɛeɛ bɛba mu! Wɔawie mo, mo a mosom Kemos! Kemos agya ne mmammarima sɛ atutenafoɔ, Ne ne mmammaa sɛ Amorifoɔhene Sihon nnommumfoɔ.
Moab, wo to thee! thou, puple of Chamos, perischidist; it yaf the sones therof in to fliyt, and the douytris in to caitifte to Seon, kyng of Ammoreis;
30 “Yɛasɛe wɔn pasaa, ɛfiri Hesbon tɔnn kɔsi Dibon. Yɛasɛe wɔn ara akɔsi Nofa De kɔ ara kɔsi Medeba.”
the yok of hem perischide, fro Esebon `til to Dibon; the wery men camen in to Jophe, and `til to Medaba.
31 Enti Israelfoɔ no tenaa Amorifoɔ asase so.
And so Israel dwellide in the lond of Ammorrey.
32 Mose somaa akwansrafoɔ sɛ wɔnkɔsrasra Yaser fa mu hɔ. Ɔde asraafoɔ toaa wɔn, faa wɔn nkuro nyinaa, pamoo Amorifoɔ no.
And Moises sente men that schulden aspie Jaser, whos `townes thei token, and weldiden the dwelleris.
33 Afei, wɔde wɔn ani kyerɛɛ kuro kɛseɛ Basan, nanso Basanhene Og de nʼasraafoɔ hyiaa wɔn wɔ Edrei.
And thei turniden hem silf, and stieden bi the weie of Basan. And Og, the kyng of Basan, with al his puple cam ayens hem, to fiyte in Edray.
34 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnnsuro na wadi atamfoɔ no so dada. Awurade sane hyɛɛ Mose nkuran sɛ asɛm a ɛtoo ɔhene Sihon wɔ Hesbon no, saa asɛm korɔ no ara bi na ɛbɛto no.
And the Lord seide to Moises, Drede thou not hym, for Y haue bitake hym, and al his loond, and puple, in thin hoond; and thou schalt do to hym as thou didist to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, the dwellere of Esebon.
35 Ampa ara, Israelfoɔ dii nkonim na wɔkumm ɔhene Og ne ne mmammarima ne ne nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa a anka wɔn mu baako mpo. Enti Israelfoɔ no tenaa asase no so.
Therfor thei smytiden `bothe hym with hise sones and al his puple, `til to deeth; and thei weldiden `the lond of hym.
