2 Mose 20

1 Afei, Onyankopɔn kaa nsɛm yi kyerɛɛ wɔn:

And the Lord spak alle these wordis, Y am thi Lord God,

2 “Mene Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn a meyii mo firii nkoasom mu wɔ Misraim no.

that ladde thee out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hous of seruage.

3 “Monnsom onyame foforɔ biara nnka me ho.

Thou schalt not haue alien goddis bifore me.

4 Monnyɛ ohoni anaa biribiara a ɛsɛ adeɛ a ɛwɔ ewiem, anaa deɛ ɛwɔ asase so, anaa deɛ ɛwɔ nsuo mu, anaa deɛ ɛwɔ asase ase.

Thou schalt not make to thee a grauun ymage, nethir ony licnesse of thing which is in heuene aboue, and which is in erthe bynethe, nether of tho thingis, that ben in watris vndur erthe; thou schalt not `herie tho,

5 Monnkoto ohoni biara nsom no ɛkwan biara so, na me, Awurade mo Onyankopɔn, meyɛ ninkunfoɔ. Na me ne onyame foforɔ bi nkyɛ mo dɔ a modɔ me no. Na sɛ nnipa bi bɔne a wayɛ enti metwe wɔn aso a, metwe wɔn aso kɔsi wɔn awontoatoasoɔ a wɔtan me no nyinaa so.

nether `thou schalt worschipe; for Y am thi Lord God, a stronge gelouse louyere; and Y visite the wickidnesse of fadris in to the thridde and the fourthe generacioun of hem that haten me,

6 Na medɔ awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ mpem a wɔdɔ me na wɔdi mʼahyɛdeɛ so.

and Y do mercy in to `a thousynde, to hem that louen me, and kepen myn heestis.

7 Mommmɔ Awurade Onyankopɔn din basabasa. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, ɔbɛbu mo fɔ.

Thou schalt not take in veyn the name of thi Lord God, for the Lord schal not haue hym giltles, that takith in veyn the name of his Lord God.

8 Monkae homeda na monni no sɛ ɛda kronkron.

Haue thou mynde, that thou halowe the `dai of the sabat;

9 Nnansia na momfa nyɛ mo nnwuma nyinaa,

in sixe daies thou schalt worche and schalt do alle thi werkis;

10 na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no yɛ homeda ma Awurade Onyankopɔn. Saa ɛda no, ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ adwuma biara; ɛnsɛ sɛ mo mmammarima, mo mmabaa anaa mo asomfoɔ anaa mo anantwie anaa mo ahɔhoɔ yɛ adwuma biara.

forsothe in the seuenthe day is the sabat of thi Lord God; thou schalt not do ony werk, thou, and thi sone, and thi douytir, and thi seruaunt, and thin handmaide, thi werk beeste, and the comelyng which is withynne thi yatis;

11 Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade de nna nsia na ɛbɔɔ ɛsoro, asase ne ɛpo ne biribiara a ɛwɔ ne nyinaa mu, ɛnna ɔhomee ne nnanson so; enti ɔhyiraa homeda no so sɛ wɔmfa nhome.

for in sixe dayes God made heuene and erthe, the see, and alle thingis that ben in tho, and restide in the seuenthe dai; herfor the Lord blesside the `dai of the sabat, and halewide it.

12 Di wʼagya ne wo maame ni na wo nna aware wɔ asase a Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, de bɛma wo no.

Onoure thi fadir and thi moder, that thou be long lyuyng on the lond, which thi Lord God schal yyue to thee.

13 Nni awu.

Thou schalt not sle.

14 Nsɛe awadeɛ.

Thou schalt `do no letcherie.

15 Mmɔ korɔno.

Thou schalt `do no theft.

16 Nni adansekurumu.

Thou schalt not speke fals witnessyng ayens thi neiybore.

17 Mma wʼani mmerɛ wo yɔnko fie anaa ne yere anaa nʼasomfoɔ anaa nʼanantwie anaa ne mfunumu anaa biribiara a ɛyɛ ne dea.”

Thou schalt not coueyte `the hous of thi neiybore, nether thou schalt desyre his wijf, not seruaunt, not handmaide, not oxe, not asse, nether alle thingis that ben hise.

18 Nnipa no nyinaa hunuu ayerɛmo ne wisie kumɔnn wɔ bepɔ no so. Wɔtee aprannaa ne totorobɛnto nne a ɛyɛ hu a ɛrebɔ dendeenden. Enti, wɔte gyinaeɛ a ehu ama wɔn ho rewoso.

Forsothe al the puple herde voices, and siy laumpis, and the sowne of a clarioun, and the hil smokynge; and thei weren afeerd, and schakun with inward drede, and stoden afer,

19 Wɔka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Ka asɛm biara a Onyankopɔn aka akyerɛ wo sɛ ka kyerɛ yɛn, na yɛbɛtie. Na mma Onyankopɔn ankasa nkasa nkyerɛ yɛn na yɛanwuwu.”

and seiden to Moises, Speke thou to vs, and we schulen here; the Lord speke not to vs, lest perauenture we dien.

20 Mose nso ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsuro na Onyankopɔn pɛ sɛ ɔda ne tumi adi kyerɛ mo sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɛfiri ɛnnɛ rekɔ, mobɛsuro sɛ mobɛyɛ bɔne atia no.”

And Moises seide to the puple, Nyle ye drede, for God cam to proue you, and that his drede schulde be in you, and that ye schulden not do synne.

21 Nanso, nnipa no tee wɔn ho gyinaa akyirikyiri baabi. Mose deɛ, ɔwuraa esum kabii no mu kɔɔ baabi a Onyankopɔn wɔ hɔ.

And the puple stood afer; forsothe Moises neiyede to the derknesse, wherynne God was.

22 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Ka saa asɛm yi kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no. ‘Modi ho adanseɛ nokorɛm sɛ, mefiri soro ada me pɛ adi akyerɛ mo.

And the Lord seide ferthermore to Moises, Thou schalt seie these thingis to the sones of Israel, Ye seiyen that fro heuene Y spak to you;

23 Monkae sɛ ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ anaa mosom ahoni a wɔde sika anaa dwetɛ anaa biribi foforɔ ayɛ.

ye schulen not make goddis of silver, nethir ye schulen make to you goddis of gold.

24 “‘Dɔteɛ afɔrebukyia na monyɛ mma me. Ɛso na mommɔ mo afɔdeɛ mma me. Mo ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ a mode nnwan ne anantwie bɔ no nyinaa mommɔ mma me. Baabi a mɛkyerɛ mo sɛ monsi afɔrebukyia no na monsi na mɛba hɔ abɛhyira mo.

Ye schulen make an auter of erthe to me, and ye schulen offre theronne youre brent sacrifices, and pesible sacrifices, youre scheep, and oxun, in ech place in which the mynde of my name schal be; Y schal come to thee, and Y schal blesse thee.

25 Motumi de aboɔ nso si afɔrebukyia, nanso aboɔ a wɔntwaeɛ na momfa nsi. Sɛ mode afidie bi twa aboɔ no di no adwini a, ɛnyɛ sɛ wɔde si, ɛfiri sɛ, moagu ho fi.

That if thou schalt make an auter of stoon to me, thou schalt not bilde it of stoonys hewun; for if thou schalt reise thi knyif theronne, it schal be `polluted, ether defoulid.

26 Monnyɛ atrapoe mma afɔrebukyia no anyɛ saa a, obi bɛhwɛ mo ntadeɛ ase ahunu mo adagya mu.’

Thou schalt not stye bi grees to myn auter, lest thi filthe be schewid.
