< Wuok 7 >
1 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ne, aseketi kaka Nyasaye ni Farao, kendo Harun owadu biro bedoni janabi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
2 Nyaka iwach gik moko duto ma achiki, kendo Harun owadu nonyis Farao mondo owe jo-Israel owuog e pinye.
You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to 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,
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 listen to you, so I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, 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.”
The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring the children of Israel out from among them.”
6 Musa kod Harun notimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi.
Moses and Aaron did so. As Yahweh commanded them, so they did.
7 E kinde mane giwuoyo gi Farao, Musa ne ja-higni piero aboro to Harun to ne ja-higni piero aboro gadek.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya,
Yahweh spoke to Moses and to 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 speaks to you, saying, ‘Perform a miracle!’ then you shall tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will 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.
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as Yahweh had commanded. 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. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.
12 Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomgi nodiro ludhe piny kendo nolokore thuol. To ludh Harun nomwonyo ludhegigo.
For they each cast down their rods, 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.
Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
14 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Chuny Farao pod tek, odagi weyo joga mondo odhi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn. He refuses 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.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he is going out to the water. You shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. You shall take the rod which was turned to a serpent in your 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.
You shall tell him, ‘Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness. Behold, until now you haven’t listened.”
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.
Yahweh says, “In this you shall know that I am Yahweh. Behold: I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on 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.’”
The fish that are in the river will die and the river will become foul. The Egyptians will 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.”
Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and stretch out your 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. There will 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.
Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck 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.
The fish that were in the river died. The river became foul. The Egyptians couldn’t drink water from the river. 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.
The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
23 To kata kamano nodok e kare mar dak, kendo ne ok odewo wechegi.
Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and he didn’t even take this to heart.
24 Jo-Misri duto nokunyo bath aora Nael mondo giyud pi modho, nikech ne ok ginyal modho pi aorano.
All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn’t drink the river water.
25 Ndalo abiriyo norumo bangʼ ka Jehova Nyasaye nosechwado aora Nael.
Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
