2 Mose 15
1 Afei, Mose ne Israelfoɔ too saa dwom yi de kamfoo Awurade: “Mɛto dwom mama Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, wadi nkonim animuonyam mu; Wato ɔpɔnkɔ ne ne sotefoɔ no agu ɛpo mu.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to Yahweh, and said, “I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.
2 “Awurade yɛ mʼahoɔden, me dwom ne me nkwagyeɛ. Ɔyɛ me Onyankopɔn, na mɛkamfo no. Ɔyɛ mʼagya Onyankopɔn—Mɛma no so.
Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 Awurade yɛ ɔkofoɔ; Aane, ne din ne Awurade.
Yahweh is a man of war. Yahweh is his name.
4 Farao nteaseɛnam ne nʼakodɔm, wato wɔn agu Ama wɔamem Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ mu. Misraim akofoɔ atitire awuwu asorɔkye ase.
He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.
5 Nsuo akata wɔn so. Wɔmemem subunu mu sɛ ɛboɔ.
The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.
6 Wo nsa nifa, Ao, Awurade, tumi ne animuonyam ahyɛ no ma. Wo nsa nifa, Ao, Awurade, atete atamfoɔ mu pasaa.
Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power. Your right hand, Yahweh, dashes the enemy in pieces.
7 “Wo tumi kɛseɛ no mu, wotuu wɔn a wɔtia wo no guiɛ. Womaa wʼabufuhyeɛ bɛhyee wɔn sɛ ogya hye ɛserɛ.
In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send out your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.
8 Wogu ahome a, nsuo mu pae. Ɛgyinaa sɛ afasuo ma ɛpo taa ɛfa ne ɛfa.
With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up. The floods stood upright as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 Ɔtamfoɔ de ahomasoɔ kaeɛ sɛ, ‘Mɛtaa wɔn, mɛto wɔn, asɛe wɔn. Na makyɛ afodeɛ no mu. Mɛtwe mʼakofena wɔ wɔn so atwitwa wɔn asinasini.’
The enemy said, ‘I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the plunder. My desire will be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword. My hand will destroy them.’
10 Nanso, Onyankopɔn bɔɔ ne mframa maa ɛpo kataa wɔn so. Wɔmemem sɛ sumpii wɔ subunu no mu.
You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.
11 Hwan na ɔte sɛ Awurade wɔ anyame mu? Hwan na ɔte sɛ wo? Ɔberempɔn wɔ kronkronyɛ mu; deɛ yɛde surokronkron ma nʼanimuonyam, na ɔyɛ anwanwadeɛyɛfoɔ Onyankopɔn.
Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 “Wotenee wo nsa nifa na asase menee wɔn.
You stretched out your right hand. The earth swallowed them.
13 Woadi nnipa a wogyee wɔn no anim, wʼayamyɛ mu. Wonam anwanwakwan so adi wɔn anim de wɔn aba wʼasase kronkron no so.
“You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
14 Amanaman tee asɛm a ɛsiiɛ ma wɔn ho popoeɛ. Ehu aka nnipa a wɔwɔ Filistia.
The peoples have heard. They tremble. Pangs have taken hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Edom mpanimfoɔ ho adwiri wɔn. Atumfoɔ a wɔwɔ Moab ho woso. Na nnipa a wɔwɔ Kanaan nyinaa abɔ huboa.
Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away.
16 Ehu ne suro afa wɔn so. Ao, Awurade, wo tumi enti, wɔremma yɛn so! Wo nkurɔfoɔ a wotɔɔ wɔn bɛtwa wɔn ho asomdwoeɛ mu.
Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone, until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people you have purchased pass over.
17 Wode wɔn bɛba abɛdua wɔn wɔ wo bepɔ so, wo ara wo efie hɔ, Awurade— Kronkronbea a woasiesie sɛ wo tenabea no.
You will bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in: the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.
18 “Awurade bɛdi ɔhene akɔsi daa.”
Yahweh will reign forever and ever.”
19 Farao apɔnkɔ, nʼapɔnkɔkafoɔ ne ne nteaseɛnam pɛɛ sɛ wɔfa ɛpo no mu; nanso, Awurade buu nsuo afasuo no guu wɔn so ɛberɛ a na Israelfoɔ no nam mu sɛ asase wesee no.
For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
20 Ɛhɔ na Odiyifoɔ baa Miriam a ɔyɛ Aaron nuabaa faa twene bi bɔ de dii mmaa no anim ma wɔsaeɛ.
Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.
21 Ɛnna Miriam too saa dwom yi: “Monto dwom mma Awurade na wadi nkonim animuonyam mu. Wama ɔpɔnkɔ ne ne sotefoɔ amem ɛpo ase.”
Miriam answered them, “Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.”
22 Afei, Mose dii Israelfoɔ no anim ne wɔn tu firii Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no ho kɔɔ Sur ɛserɛ so. Na wɔnantee ɛserɛ no so nnansa a wɔannya nsuo annom.
Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Wɔduruu Mara no, wɔantumi annom ɛhɔ nsuo, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛyɛ nwono. Ɛno enti na wɔfrɛ hɔ Mara no; aseɛ ne: Nwononwono.
When they came to Marah, they couldn’t drink from the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah.
24 Afei, nnipa no danee wɔn ani tiaa Mose sɛ, “Osukɔm nku yɛn anaa?”
The people murmured against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
25 Mose srɛɛ Awurade sɛ ɔmmoa wɔn, na Awurade kyerɛɛ no dua bi. Na ɔtoo dubaa no too nsuo no mu, na ɛyɛɛ dɛ maa wɔtumi nomeeɛ. Mara hɔ na Awurade hyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa wɔn sɛ,
Then he cried to Yahweh. Yahweh showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there he tested them.
26 “Sɛ mobɛtie Awurade mo Onyankopɔn nne, na moayɛ ɔsetie, ayɛ ade tenenee deɛ a, yadeɛ a mema ɛbɔɔ Misraimfoɔ no, meremma bi mmɔ mo, ɛfiri sɛ, mene Awurade a mesa mo nyarewa.”
He said, “If you will diligently listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you.”
27 Wɔbaa Elim a ɛhɔ na na nsubura dumienu ne mmɛdua aduɔson wɔ enti, wɔsisii wɔn ntomadan, tenaa nsubura no ho.
They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They encamped there by the waters.
