Wuok 3

1 Chiengʼ moro Musa ne kwayo jamb Jethro jaduongʼne ma Jadolo mar jo-Midian, mi nongʼado thim gi jamni nyaka Horeb got mar Nyasaye.

And Moses hath been feeding the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, priest of Midian, and he leadeth the flock behind the wilderness, and cometh in unto the mount of God, to Horeb;

2 Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyorene kanyo e ligek mach maliel e dier bungu. Musa noneno ni kata obedo ni mach nomako bunguno, bunguno to ne ok wangʼ.

and there appeareth unto him a messenger of Jehovah in a flame of fire, out of the midst of the bush, and he seeth, and lo, the bush is burning with fire, and the bush is not consumed.

3 Kuom mano Musa noparo e chunye owuon niya, “Abiro sudo machiegni mondo ane hono maduongʼni. Angʼo momiyo bunguni ok wangʼ kata obedo ni mach lielie.”

And Moses saith, 'Let me turn aside, I pray thee, and I see this great appearance; wherefore is the bush not burned?'

4 Kane Jehova Nyasaye oneno kosudo machiegni mondo one ane, Nyasaye noluonge gi e dier bungu niya, “Musa! Musa!” Eka Musa nodwoke niya, “An ka.”

and Jehovah seeth that he hath turned aside to see, and God calleth unto him out of the midst of the bush, and saith, 'Moses, Moses;' and he saith, 'Here [am] I.'

5 Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kik imed sudo machiegni, to lony wuoche e tiendi, nikech kama ichungoeni en Kama Ler.”

And He saith, 'Come not near hither: cast thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place on which thou art standing is holy ground.'

6 Bangʼe Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “An e Nyasach kwereni, Nyasach Ibrahim gi Nyasach Isaka kendo Nyasach Jakobo.” Kane Musa owinjo wachno to nopando wangʼe, nikech noluoro rango wangʼ Nyasaye.

He saith also, 'I [am] the God of thy father, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob;' and Moses hideth his face, for he is afraid to look towards God.

7 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Chutho aseneno thagruok mar joga e piny Misri. Asewinjo ywakgi nikech joma chunogi e tich mar wasumbini kendo angʼeyo thagruokgi.

And Jehovah saith, 'I have certainly seen the affliction of My people who [are] in Egypt, and their cry I have heard, because of its exactors, for I have known its pains;

8 Omiyo aselor mondo aresgi e lwet jo-Misri kendo agolgi e pinyno mondo akelgi e piny maber kendo malach, ma en piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich. En piny jo-Kanaan gi jo-Hiti gi jo-Amor gi jo-Perizi gi jo-Hivi kod jo-Jebus.

and I go down to deliver it out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to cause it to go up out of the land, unto a land good and broad, unto a land flowing with milk and honey — unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

9 Koro ywak jo-Israel osechopona, kendo aseneno kaka jo-Misri sandogi.

'And now, lo, the cry of the sons of Israel hath come in unto Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them,

10 Koro dhiyo. Aori ir Farao mondo igol joga ma jo-Israel e piny Misri.”

and now, come, and I send thee unto Pharaoh, and bring thou out My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt.'

11 To Musa nodwoko Nyasaye niya, “An to an ngʼa, ma dadhi ir Farao kendo golo jo-Israel e piny Misri?”

And Moses saith unto God, 'Who [am] I, that I go unto Pharaoh, and that I bring out the sons of Israel from Egypt?'

12 Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Abiro bedo kodi. Ranyisi ma ibiro neno ni An ema aori ema: Ka isegolo ogandani e piny Misri, to ubiro lamo Nyasaye ewi godni.”

and He saith, 'Because I am with thee, and this [is] to thee the sign that I have sent thee: in thy bringing out the people from Egypt — ye do serve God on this mount.'

13 Musa nodwoko Nyasaye niya, “Ka dipo ni adhi ir jo-Israel mi awachonegi ni, ‘Nyasach kwereu oseora iru,’ mi gipenja ni, ‘Nyinge en ngʼa?’ Koro to ananyisgi nangʼo?”

And Moses saith unto God, 'Lo, I am coming unto the sons of Israel, and have said to them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you, and they have said to me, What [is] His name? what do I say unto them?'

14 Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “AN MANTIE. Ma e gima onego iwach ni jo-Israel, ‘AN MANTIE oseora iru.’”

And God saith unto Moses, 'I AM THAT WHICH I AM;' He saith also, 'Thus dost thou say to the sons of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.'

15 Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kendo niya, “Nyis jo-Israel kama, ‘Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwereu, kendo ma Nyasach Ibrahim gi Nyasach Isaka kendo Nyasach Jakobo; oseora iru.’ “Ma e nyinga manyaka chiengʼ, ma en nying manyaka parago, kuom tiengʼ ka tiengʼ.

And God saith again unto Moses, 'Thus dost thou say unto the sons of Israel, Jehovah, God of your fathers, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this [is] My name — to the age, and this My memorial, to generation — generation.

16 “Dhiyo, ichok jodong jo-Israel mondo iwachnegi kama. ‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu; ma en Nyasach Ibrahim gi Isaka kod Jakobo; nofwenyorena mi owachona kama: Aserangou mi aseneno gino mosetimnu e piny Misri.

'Go, and thou hast gathered the elders of Israel, and hast said unto them: Jehovah, God of your fathers, hath appeareth unto me, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I have certainly inspected you, and that which is done to you in Egypt;

17 Kuom mano asesingora ni nyaka agolu e thagruok e piny Misri mi akelu e piny jo-Kanaan gi jo-Hiti gi jo-Amor gi jo-Perizi gi jo-Hivi kod jo-Jebus, ma en piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich.’

and I say, I bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt, unto the land of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, unto a land flowing [with] milk and honey.

18 “Jodong jo-Israel biro winjo gima iwacho. Bangʼ mano in kaachiel gi jodongo unudhi ir ruodh Misri mi uwachne kama: ‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach jo-Hibrania oseromo kodwa. Omiyo yie iwe wadhi e thim kama kawo wuodh ndalo adek mondo wachiwne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa misengini.’

'And they have hearkened to thy voice, and thou hast entered, thou and the elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye have said unto him, Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, hath met with us; and now, let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to Jehovah our God.

19 To angʼeyo ni ruodh Misri ok noyienu mondo udhi makmana kochune gi bat maratego.

'And I — I have known that the king of Egypt doth not permit you to go, unless by a strong hand,

20 Kuom mano, abiro rieyo bada mi agoo jo-Misri gi kit masiche duto ma anakel e diergi. Bangʼ mano, to enoyienu mondo udhi.

and I have put forth My hand, and have smitten Egypt with all My wonders, which I do in its midst — and afterwards he doth send you away.

21 “Bende anami jo-Misri bed gi ngʼwono kuom jogi, mondo ka uwuok to ok unua gi lwetu nono.

'And I have given the grace of this people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and it hath come to pass, when ye go, ye go not empty;

22 Dhako ka dhako nyaka kwa jabathe kod joma odakgo e ode mondo omiye gik molos gi fedha gi dhahabu kod lewni, ma unuket kuom yawuotu gi nyiu. Kuom mano unuyak gige jo-Misri.”

and [every] woman hath asked from her neighbour, and from her who is sojourning in her house, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and ye have put [them] on your sons and on your daughters, and have spoiled the Egyptians.'
