Mose 2 8
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gayi Farao gbɔ, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si. Ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Ne ègbe la, maɖo akpɔkplɔwo ƒe hatsotso gãwo ɖa woava xɔ wò anyigba la dzi tso liƒo ɖeka dzi yi bubu dzi.
And if thou refuse to let [them] go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
3 Akpɔkplɔwo asɔ gbɔ ɖe Nil tɔsisi la me. Woava ge ɖe wò fiasã la me, age ɖe wò xɔdɔme me, woage ɖe wò abati dzi, woage ɖe wò dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye woage ɖe abolokpowo kple amɔzewo me.
And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
4 Akpɔkplɔawo ata le wò ŋutɔ, wò amewo kple ŋuwòmewo katã dzi.’”
And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
5 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be wòado eƒe atikplɔ ɖe tɔsisiwo, tɔʋuwo kple tawo katã dzi le Egipte.”
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
6 Aron wɔ nu sia, eye akpɔkplɔwo xɔ anyigba blibo la dzi.
And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ke akunyawɔlawo hã tsɔ woƒe ayemenuwɔwɔwo wɔ nenema, eye woawo hã na akpɔkplɔwo do ɖe anyigba la dzi.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
8 Tete Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron, heƒo koko na wo be, “Miɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa, ekema maɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woayi aɖasa vɔ nɛ.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the LORD.
9 Mose gblɔ be, “Ve nunye, eye nàgblɔ ɣeyiɣi si nàna woayi la nam ekema mado gbe ɖa be akpɔkplɔawo naku le ɣeyiɣi si dzi tututu nàtɔ asii la dzi. Akpɔkplɔawo aku le afi sia afi negbe le tɔsisi la me ko.”
And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, [that] they may remain in the river only?
10 Farao ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔe etsɔ si gbɔna.” Mose yi edzi be, “Enyo, ava eme abe ale si nègblɔ ene, ekema ànya be, ame aɖeke mede Yehowa, mía Mawu la nu o.
And he said, To morrow. And he said, [Be it] according to thy word: that thou mayest know that [there is] none like unto the LORD our God.
11 Akpɔkplɔawo katã atsrɔ̃ negbe esiwo le tɔsisi la me ko.”
And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.
12 Ale Mose kple Aron wodzo le Farao gbɔ. Mose ɖe kuku na Yehowa le akpɔkplɔ siwo wòɖo ɖa la ŋu.
And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.
13 Yehowa wɔ ɖe ŋugbe si Mose do na Farao la dzi. Akpɔkplɔ kukuwo yɔ duwo godo kple aƒewo me siaa.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
14 Woli kɔ wo gleglegle, eye wohe ʋeʋẽ sẽŋu aɖe va anyigba blibo la dzi.
And they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank.
15 Ke esi Farao kpɔ be woɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa ko la, egasẽ dzi me, eye wògbe asiɖeɖe le ameawo ŋu abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
16 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be, ‘Tsɔ wò atikplɔ ƒo anyigba, eye ke siwo katã le Egiptenyigba dzi la atrɔ azu muwo.’”
And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
17 Mose kple Aron wowɔ nu si Mawu ɖo na wo la. Tete muwo xɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi enumake, eye woƒo kɔ ɖe amewo kple woƒe lãwo katã dzi.
And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Akunyawɔlawo dze agbagba be yewo hã yewoawɔ nu ma ke kple woƒe nunya ɣaɣlawo, gake azɔ ya la, womete ŋui o, eye muawo ɖu amewo kple lãwo siaa.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
19 Akunyawɔlawo gblɔ na Farao be, “Esia nye Mawu ƒe asinudɔ.” Ke Farao gasẽ dzi me kokoko: meɖo to wo o, abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This [is] the finger of God: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
20 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Fɔ etsɔ ŋdi kanya, nàdo go Farao esime wòyina tsi le ge le tɔsisi la me. Gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Ne ègbe la, maɖo togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe ɖa woava Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, axɔ wò kple wò dumegãwo kple wò amewo ƒe aƒewo me. Ale Egiptetɔwo ƒe aƒewo me ayɔ fũu kple togbatowo, eye woayɔ anyigba la ƒe afi sia afi.
Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms [of flies] upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms [of flies], and also the ground whereon they [are].
22 “‘Gake gbe ma gbe la, mana nuwo nato vovo le Gosenyigba dzi, afi si nye amewo le. Togbatowo ƒe ha manɔ afi ma ya o. Ale nànyae be nye Yehowa mele anyigba sia dzi,
And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms [of flies] shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I [am] the LORD in the midst of the earth.
23 elabena made vovototo wò amewo kple nye amewo dome. Dzesidede siawo katã ava eme etsɔ.’”
And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be.
24 Yehowa wɔ abe ale si wògblɔ ene. Togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe nye zi ge ɖe Farao ƒe fiasã la me kple eƒe dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye togbatoawo gblẽ nu le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi.
And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm [of flies] into the house of Pharaoh, and [into] his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm [of flies].
25 Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron enumake hegblɔ na wo be, “Enyo; miyi miasa vɔ na miaƒe Mawu la, gake misa vɔ la le afii, le anyigba sia dzi, migayi gbedzi o.”
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26 Ke Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Eya masɔ o! Egiptetɔwo lé fu míaƒe vɔsawo. Ne míasa vɔ na Yehowa míaƒe Mawu le woƒe ŋkuta la, woawu mí.
And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 Ele be míayi aɖanɔ gbedzi ŋkeke etɔ̃, asa vɔ na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la le afi ma, abe ale si wòɖo na mí ene.”
We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.
28 Farao ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, maɖe mɔ na mi be miayi aɖasa vɔ na Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, gake migayi didiƒe sãa o. Azɔ la, miɖe abla miaɖe kuku na miaƒe Mawu la ɖe tanye.”
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me.
29 Mose lɔ̃ ɖe edzi hegblɔ be, “Ne medzo le gbɔwò la, mabia Yehowa be wòana togbatoawo katã nabu. Ke mele nya gbem na wò be mègable mí azɔ, ado ŋugbe na mí be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu, eye emegbe nàgatrɔ susu o.”
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the LORD that the swarms [of flies] may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
30 Mose dzo le Farao gbɔ, eye wòɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe togbatoawo ɖa.
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD.
31 Eye Yehowa wɔ nu si Mose bia. Togbatoawo dzo le Farao kple eŋumewo kple eƒe amewo gbɔ; wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã meganɔ anyi o.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the swarms [of flies] from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 Ke fifia gɔ̃ hã la, Farao gasẽ dzi me, eye melɔ̃ be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woadzo o.
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
