2 Mose 11

1 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Mɛma ɔhaw a ɛtwa toɔ aba Farao ne nʼasase so. Na ɛno akyiri no, ɔbɛma mo akɔ. Nokorɛm, ne ho bɛpere no sɛ mobɛfiri ne ho ama ɔno ara apamo mo afiri ɔman no mu.

Now the Lord had saide vnto Moses, yet will I bring one plague more vpon Pharaoh, and vpon Egypt: after that, he will let you go hence: when he letteth you goe, he shall at once chase you hence.

2 Monka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ mmarima ne mmaa nyinaa sɛ, wɔmmisa wɔn amannifoɔ Misraimfoɔ no na wɔmma wɔn sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ adwinneɛ.”

Speake thou nowe to the people, that euery man require of his neighbour, and euery woman of her neighbour iewels of siluer and iewels of gold.

3 Awurade maa Misraimfoɔ no hunuu Israelfoɔ no mmɔbɔ, na Mose nso yɛɛ onipa kɛseɛ a na Farao mpanimfoɔ ne Misraimfoɔ no bu no yie wɔ ɔman no mu.

And the Lord gaue the people fauour in the sight of the Egyptians: also Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaohs seruantes, and in the sight of the people.)

4 Mose bɔɔ Farao amaneɛ sɛ, “Awurade se menka nkyerɛ wo sɛ, ‘Anadwo nnɔndumienu mɛtwam wɔ Misraim asase so.

Also Moses sayde, Thus sayth the Lord, About midnight will I goe out into the middes of Egypt.

5 Na Misraim fie biara mu ɔbabarima panin bɛwu. Ɛfiri Farao babarima panin so, ne dehyeɛ a ɔbɛdi nʼadeɛ, ne ɔsomfoɔ mu ɔsomfoɔ kumaa koraa ba panin ne ne nyɛmmoa abakan nyinaa bɛwuwu.

And all the first borne in the lande of Egypt shall die, from the first borne of Pharaoh that sitteth on his throne, vnto the first borne of the maide seruant, that is at the mille, and all the first borne of beastes.

6 Na owuo no ho agyaadwotwa bɛduru Misraim asase so nyinaa. Awerɛhoɔ a ɛte saa mmaa Misraim asase so da, na ebi nso remma da bio.

Then there shalbe a great crie throughout all the land of Egypt, such as was neuer none like, nor shalbe.

7 Na Israelfoɔ mu deɛ, biribiara bɛyɛ dwoodwoo na ɔkraman mpo rempɔ.’ Na ɛbɛma woahunu sɛ, Awurade de nsonsonoeɛ ato Misraimfoɔ ne Israelfoɔ ntam!

But against none of ye children of Israel shall a dogge moue his tongue, neyther against man nor beast, that ye may knowe that the Lord putteth a difference betweene the Egyptians and Israel.

8 Wo mpanimfoɔ yi nyinaa bɛtu mmirika, adi mʼakyiri, akoto asrɛ sɛ, ‘Yɛpa wo kyɛw, firi ha ntɛm na kɔfa wo nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa ka wo ho kɔ.’ Sɛ ɛba saa a ansa na mɛkɔ!” Mose wiee kasa no, ɔde abufuhyeɛ firii ahemfie hɔ kɔeɛ.

And all these thy seruants shall come downe vnto me, and fal before me, saying, Get thee out, and all the people that are at thy feete, and after this will I depart. So he went out from Pharaoh very angry.

9 Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose sɛ, “Asɛm a wobɛka no, Farao rentie. Na ɛno so na mɛgyina ayɛ anwanwadeɛ de ada me tumi adi.”

And the Lord saide vnto Moses, Pharaoh shall not heare you, that my wonders may bee multiplied in the land of Egypt.

10 Ɛwom sɛ Mose ne Aaron yɛɛ saa anwanwadeɛ no nyinaa wɔ Farao anim nanso Awurade pirim nʼakoma sɛdeɛ ɔremma nnipa no mfiri asase no so nkɔ.

So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: but the Lord hardened Pharaohs heart, and he suffred not the children of Israel to goe out of his lande.
