5 Mose 10

1 Saa ɛberɛ no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Twa aboɔ ɛpono no mmienu te sɛ kane deɛ no na foro bra me nkyɛn wɔ bepɔ no so. Afei, yɛ dua adaka a wobɛkora wɔ mu.

At that time the LORD said to me, "Cut two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.

2 Mɛtwerɛ nsɛm a metwerɛ guu aboɔ ɛpono mmienu a ɛdi ɛkan a wobubuu mu no bi pɛpɛɛpɛ agu so. Na wode ahyɛ adaka no mu.”

I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark."

3 Na mede dua okuo yɛɛ adaka, senee aboɔ ɛpono mmienu sɛ kane deɛ no, na meforoo bepɔ no a apono mmienu no kura me nsam.

So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.

4 Awurade twerɛɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no a ɔdii ɛkan twerɛ firii ogya mu wɔ bepɔ no so wɔ mo nhyiamu ase no guu apono no so. Na Awurade de maa me.

He wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them to me.

5 Na mesiane firii bepɔ no so na mede aboɔ apono no bɛhyɛɛ adaka a meyɛeɛ no mu sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ me sɛ menyɛ no, na ɛwɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.

I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.

6 Na Israelfoɔ tu firii Beerot-Bene-Yaakan kɔɔ Mosera. Ɛhɔ na Aaron wuiɛ na wɔsiee no. Aaron babarima Eleasa sii nʼanan mu, dii ɔsɔfoɔ.

(The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his place.

7 Wɔfiri hɔ no, wɔtu kɔɔ Gudgod. Wɔfiri Gudgod hɔ no, wɔkɔɔ Yotbata, asase a nsuo abu so wɔ so.

From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.

8 Ɛhɔ na Awurade yii Lewifoɔ abusuakuo sɛ wɔnsoa Awurade apam adaka no na wɔnnyina Awurade anim nsom no na wɔmfa ne din so nhyira. Yeinom da so yɛ wɔn nnwuma de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.

At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.

9 Ne saa enti na Lewifoɔ no nni agyapadeɛ a wɔnya mu mfasodeɛ wɔ Israelfoɔ mmusuakuo mu no. Awurade no ankasa ne wɔn agyapadeɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ wɔn no.

Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)

10 Sɛdeɛ maka dada no, metenaa bepɔ no so Awurade anim adaduanan awia ne anadwo ne mprenu so. Na bio, Awurade tiee me sufrɛ enti, wansɛe mo.

I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights: and the LORD listened to me that time also, and the LORD would not destroy you.

11 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Sɔre na di ɔmanfoɔ no anim fa wɔn kɔ asase a mekaa ntam sɛ mede bɛma wɔn agyanom no so na wɔmfa no sɛ agyapadeɛ.”

The LORD said to me, "Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them."

12 Enti Israel, ɛdeɛn na Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, hwehwɛ afiri mo nkyɛn? Ɔhwehwɛ sɛ mosuro no na moyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ, na mode mo akoma ne mo kra nyinaa dɔ no na mosom no,

Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

13 na modi Awurade ahyɛdeɛ ne ne mmara a mede rema mo ɛnnɛ yi so, na asi mo yie.

to keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?

14 Ɔsorosoro mu soro ne asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa yɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn, dea.

Look, to the LORD your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in it.

15 Nanso, Awurade yii mo agyanom sɛ ne dɔ nhwɛsodeɛ. Na ɔyii mo a moyɛ wɔn asefoɔ gyaa ɔman biara sɛdeɛ ɛte ɛnnɛ yi.

Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their descendants after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.

16 Ɛno enti, momma wɔnte mo akoma mu na monnyae asoɔden no.

Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.

17 Awurade mo Onyankopɔn yɛ ahene mu hene ne anyame mu nyame. Ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn kokuroko, otumfoɔ ne ɔnwanwani a ɔnkyea nʼaso na ɔnnye adanmudeɛ nso.

For the LORD your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn't respect persons, nor takes reward.

18 Ɔbu nwisiaa ne akunafoɔ atɛntenenee. Ɔda ne dɔ adi kyerɛ ahɔhoɔ a wɔte mo mu. Ɔma wɔn aduane ne ntoma.

He does execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the foreigner, in giving him food and clothing.

19 Mo nso, ɛsɛ sɛ modɔ ahɔhoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, mo nso ɛberɛ bi na moyɛ ahɔhoɔ wɔ Misraim asase so.

Therefore love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

20 Ɛsɛ sɛ modi Awurade mo Onyankopɔn ni na mosom no, na moka mo ho bata ne ho. Monka ntam wɔ ne din nko ara mu.

You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve him; and you shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.

21 Ɔyɛ mo Onyankopɔn a ɛsɛ sɛ mokamfo no. Ɔno na wayɛ anwanwadeɛ akɛseɛ a mo nyinaa ahunu bi.

He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which your eyes have seen.

22 Ɛberɛ a mo agyanom siane kɔɔ Misraim no, na wɔn dodoɔ yɛ aduɔson. Nanso afei, Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn ama moadɔre te sɛ ɔsoro nsoromma.

Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.
