Exodus 16
1 They took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
Afei, wotu fii Elim baa Sin sare a ɛda Elim ne Bepɔw Sinai ntam no so. Wotu fii Misraim no, ɔsram a ɛto so abien no nnaawɔtwe abien so na woduu hɔ.
2 The whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;
Woduu hɔ no nso, nnipa no kasa tiaa Mose ne Aaron se,
3 and the children of Israel said to them, "We wish that we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the meat pots, when we ate our fill of bread, for you have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger."
“Sɛ yɛwɔ Misraim na anka Awurade rekunkum yɛn wɔ hɔ a, anka yɛpɛ. Na yenya nnuan bebree di wɔ hɔ. Nanso mode yɛn abegu sare so ha ama ɔkɔm rekum yɛn.”
4 Then said the LORD to Moses, "Look, I will rain bread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Merebɛtɔ aduan afi ɔsoro abegu asase so ama wɔn. Obiara betumi akɔboaboa dodow biara a ɔpɛ ano ama nea obedi no da koro. Mede eyi bɛsɔ wɔn ahwɛ sɛ wobedi mʼahyɛde so anaasɛ wɔrenni so.
5 It shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily."
Ka kyerɛ wɔn na nnaawɔtwe biara mu da a ɛto so asia no, wɔmmoaboa aduan no ano sɛnea daa wɔboaboa no no, mmɔho abien.”
6 Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, "At evening, then you shall know that the LORD has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
Enti Mose ne Aaron frɛɛ Israelfo no nyinaa ne wɔn hyia ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Anwummere yi, mubehu sɛ Awurade na oyii mo fii Misraim asase so.
7 and in the morning, then you shall see the glory of the LORD, because he has heard your murmurings against God. Who are we, that you murmur against us?"
Sɛ edu anɔpa a, mubehu nʼanuonyam bebree; efisɛ wate sɛnea munwiinwii tia no no. Na yɛn ne hena a munwiinwii tia yɛn?
8 Moses said, "Now the LORD shall give you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to satisfy you; because the LORD hears your murmurings which you murmur against him. And who are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against God."
Anwummere yi, Awurade bɛma mo nam awe, na wama mo aduan anɔpa, efisɛ wate mo anwiinwii a etia no no. Moannwiinwii antia yɛn, na munwiinwii tiaa Awurade.”
9 Moses said to Aaron, "Tell all the congregation of the children of Israel, 'Come near before God, for he has heard your murmurings.'"
Na Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron se, “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no nyinaa sɛ wɔmmra Awurade anim na wommetie wɔn anwiinwii no ho mmuae.”
10 It happened, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and look, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.
Enti Aaron frɛɛ wɔn boaa ano, na prɛko pɛ, wɔmaa wɔn ani so kyerɛɛ baabi a omununkum a ɛrekyerɛ wɔn kwan no wɔ no, Awurade fii mu daa nʼanuonyam kɛse no adi.
11 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
12 "I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, 'At evening you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread: and you shall know that I am the LORD your God.'"
“Mate wɔn anwiinwii no, ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Anwummere, mubenya nam awe na anɔpa nso mubenya aduan pii adi na mubehu sɛ mene Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, no.’”
13 It happened at evening that quail came up and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay around the camp.
Anwummere no, nnomaa pii bebuu so wɔ wɔn atenae hɔ na anɔpa no, obosu tɔ guu sare no so maa ɛyɛɛ fɔkyee.
14 When the dew that lay had gone, look, on the surface of the wilderness was a small round thing, small as the frost on the ground.
Obosu no yowee no, nsinsenii nketenkete bi a ɛte sɛ sukyerɛmma beguu asase no so.
15 When the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, "It is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat."
Israelfo no hui no, wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Dɛn ni?” Na Mose buaa wɔn se, “Ɛyɛ aduan a Awurade de ama mo sɛ munni no.
16 This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: "Gather of it everyone according to his eating; an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, you shall take it, every man for those who are in his tent."
Awurade aka se, ‘Obiara mmoaboa dodow biara a ɛbɛso ɔne ne fifo di no ano.’”
17 The children of Israel did so, and gathered some more, some less.
Enti Israelfo no fii adi kɔboaboaa aduan no bi ano. Ebinom faa pii na bi nso faa kakraa bi.
18 When they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack. They gathered every man according to his eating.
Wohwiee nea wɔaboaboa ano no nyinaa guu susukoraa mu no, na ɛdɔɔso sɛ obiara benya bi. Wɔn a wonyaa pii no, ebi anka, na wɔn a wonyaa kakraa bi no nso, ɛsoo wɔn. Ofi biara nyaa ne so ne ne de.
19 Moses said to them, "Let no one leave of it until the morning."
Mose ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mommma ade nkye so.”
20 Notwithstanding they did not listen to Moses, but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Moses was angry with them.
Nanso ebinom yɛɛ asoɔden maa ade kyee so. Ade kyee so no, na adɔ nsaammoa ma ɛbɔn enti Mose bo fuw wɔn yiye.
21 They gathered it morning by morning, everyone according to his eating. When the sun grew hot, it melted.
Afei na wɔkɔtase aduan no anɔpa anɔpa, na wɔtase dodow biara a, ɛso ofi biara. Na awia bɔɔ denneennen guu so no, aduan no nyinaa nanee.
22 It happened that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one, and all the leaders of the congregation came and told Moses.
Da a ɛto so asia no, wɔtasee sɛnea wɔtase no daa no mmɔho abien. Wɔtasee susukoraa asia, nanso daa na wɔtase susukoraa abiɛsa. Mpanyimfo a wotuatua nnipa no ano no bebisaa Mose nea nti a aba saa.
23 He said to them, "This is that which the LORD has spoken, 'Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Bake that which you want to bake, and boil that which you want to boil; and all that remains over lay up for yourselves to be kept until the morning.'"
Mose buaa wɔn se, “Efisɛ Awurade aka ato hɔ se, ‘Ɔkyena yɛ homeda. Ɛyɛ homeda kronkron ma Awurade a ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ yɛn nnwuma biara. Enti monnoa dodow biara a mopɛ nnɛ, na nea ɛbɛka no, munnyaw mma ade nkye so.’”
24 They laid it up until the morning, as Moses asked, and it did not become foul, neither was there any worm in it.
Na ade kyee so no, na nsaammoa biara nni mu na ɛmmɔn nso.
25 Moses said, "Eat that today, for today is a Sabbath to the LORD. Today you shall not find it in the field.
Mose kae se, “Nnɛ, mo aduan ni, efisɛ nnɛ yɛ Awurade homeda enti aduan biara rentɔ ngu asase so.
26 Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the Sabbath. In it there shall be none."
Momfa nnansia mmoaboa aduan ano, efisɛ da a ɛto so ason no yɛ homeda enti morennya aduan biara saa da no.”
27 It happened on the seventh day, that some of the people went out to gather, and they found none.
Homeda no, nnipa no bi fii adi sɛ wɔrekɔpɛ aduan no bi, nanso na ebi nni hɔ.
28 The LORD said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?
Awurade bisaa Mose se, “Saa nnipa yi bɛyɛ asoɔden akosi da bɛn?
29 Look, because the LORD has given you the Sabbath, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days. Everyone stay in his place. Let no one go out of his place on the seventh day."
Wonhu sɛ nnansia so no, memaa wɔn mmɔho abien sɛnea ɛbɛso wɔn nnaanu? Awurade se momfa da a ɛto so ason no sɛ homeda; montena mo ntamadan mu. Mummfi adi nkɔtase aduan mfi asase so.”
30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
Enti da a ɛto so ason no, nnipa no homee.
31 The house of Israel called its name Manna, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.
Israelfo no too aduan no din se Mana, ase ne “Ɛyɛ dɛn?” Ɛyɛ fitaa sɛ wusa aba na ɛyɛ dɛ te sɛ tetare a ɛwo wɔ mu.
32 Moses said, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, 'Let an omer-full of it be kept throughout your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.'"
Mose kaa asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnka nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmfa aduan no susukoraa abiɛsa na wɔmfa nkosie wɔn adekorabea afebɔɔ sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, nkyirimma behu aduan a Awurade de maa wɔn dii wɔ sare so bere a oyii wɔn fii Misraim no.
33 Moses said to Aaron, "Take a jar, and put an omer-full of manna in it, and place it before God, to be kept throughout your generations."
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron se ɔmfa kuruwa na ɔmfa mana lita abiɛsa ngu mu na ɔmfa nsie kronkronbea bi mma nkyirimma.
34 As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
Aaron yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnyɛ no na ɔnkora no wɔ Apam Adaka no mu wɔ kronkronbea hɔ.
35 The children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land. They ate the manna until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
Enti Israelfo dii mana yi mfe aduanan kosii sɛ woduu Kanaan asase so a ɛhɔ de, na afumduan wɔ no.
36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
Lita abiɛsa yɛ omer baako.
