1 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ne, aseketi kaka Nyasaye ni Farao, kendo Harun owadu biro bedoni janabi.
And Jehovah said unto Moses, See, I have made thee as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
2 Nyaka iwach gik moko duto ma achiki, kendo Harun owadu nonyis Farao mondo owe jo-Israel owuog e pinye.
Thou shalt speak all that I command thee; and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
3 Abiro keto chuny Farao bedo matek, ma kata obedo ni abiro nwoyo honni kod ranyisi e piny Misri,
And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 to Farao ok nowinju. Omiyo anasand jo-Misri gi masiche madongo kakumogi malich mi anagol joga ma jo-Israel e piny Misri.
But Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, and I will lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth my hosts, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 Kendo jo-Misri nongʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye e kinde ma anakumgi ka agolo jo-Israel kuomgi.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
6 Musa kod Harun notimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi.
And Moses and Aaron did so; as Jehovah commanded them, so did they.
7 E kinde mane giwuoyo gi Farao, Musa ne ja-higni piero aboro to Harun to ne ja-higni piero aboro gadek.
And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.
8 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 “Ka Farao onyisou ni mondo utim hono moro, to in Musa nyis Harun ni, ‘Kaw ludhi kendo dire piny e nyim Farao,’ kendo obiro lokore thuol.”
When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Show a wonder for you; then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.
10 Kuom mano, Musa kod Harun ne odhi ir Farao mi gitimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi. Harun nodiro ludhe piny e nyim Farao kod jodonge mi nolokore thuol.
And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so, as Jehovah had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Farao noluongo jorieko kod ajuoke mag Misri mine gitimo gik machal gi mane Harun otimo ka gitiyo gi teko mag yedhegi mopondo.
Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers: and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomgi nodiro ludhe piny kendo nolokore thuol. To ludh Harun nomwonyo ludhegigo.
For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 To kata kamano, chuny Farao ne odoko matek kendo ne ok onyal winjogi mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne osewacho.
And Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as Jehovah had spoken.
14 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Chuny Farao pod tek, odagi weyo joga mondo odhi.
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn, he refuseth to let the people go.
15 Dhi ir Farao gokinyi ka odhi e aora. Rite e bath aora Nael mondo irom kode, bende kaw luth mane olokore thuol cha e lweti.
Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the river’s brink to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thy hand.
16 Eka inyise ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach jo-Hibrania, oseora mondo anyisi niya: We joga odhi, mondo gilama e thim. To nyaka chop koroni pok iwinjo.
And thou shalt say unto him, Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou hast not hearkened.
17 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Ranyisini biro miyo ingʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye: Abiro chwado pi aora Nael gi luth mantie e lwetani kendo pigno biro lokore remo.
Thus saith Jehovah, In this thou shalt know that I am Jehovah: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in my hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18 Rech manie aora Nael biro tho, kendo aora biro dungʼ, jo-Misri ok nomodh pigno.’”
And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink water from the river.
19 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Nyis Harun ni, ‘Kaw ludhi mondo irie badi ewi pige mag Misri, ma gin aore matindo kod madongo, yewni kod kuonde duto mag kano pi, kendo gibiro lokore remo.’ Remo biro bedo kamoro amora e piny Misri nyaka ei agulni molos gi kite.”
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.
20 Musa kod Harun notimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi. Notingʼo ludhe e nyim Farao kod jodonge duto mi ochwado aora Nael kendo pige duto nolokore remo.
And Moses and Aaron did so, as Jehovah commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
21 Rech manie aora Nael notho, kendo aora nodungʼ marach ma jo-Misri ne ok nyal modho pige. Remo ne nitie kamoro amora e piny Misri.
And the fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul, and the Egyptians could not drink water from the river; and the blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
22 To ajuoke mag Misri notimo mana gik machal kamano gi tijegi mag ajuoke mi chuny Farao nomedo doko matek; ne ok onyal winjo wach Musa kod Harun mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho.
And the magicians of Egypt did in like manner with their enchantments: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as Jehovah had spoken.
23 To kata kamano nodok e kare mar dak, kendo ne ok odewo wechegi.
And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he lay even this to heart.
24 Jo-Misri duto nokunyo bath aora Nael mondo giyud pi modho, nikech ne ok ginyal modho pi aorano.
And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
25 Ndalo abiriyo norumo bangʼ ka Jehova Nyasaye nosechwado aora Nael.
And seven days were fulfilled, after that Jehovah had smitten the river.
