Exodus 4
1 And Moses answered and said, But behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken to my voice, for they will say, Jehovah has not appeared to thee.
Na Moses el topuk LEUM GOD ac fahk, “Tusruktu fin pa mwet Israel elos tiana lulalfongiyu ac tia porongo ma nga fahk uh, mea nga ac oru elos fin fahk mu kom tiana sikme nu sik?”
2 And Jehovah said to him, What is that in thy hand? And he said, A rod.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El siyuk sel, “Mea se inpoum an?” El topuk, “Sikal soko.”
3 And he said, Cast in on the ground. And he cast it on the ground. And it became a serpent, and Moses fled from before it.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Sisya nu infohk an.” Pacl se ke Moses el sisya ah, sikal soko ah ekla nu ke wet soko, ac Moses el kaing liki.
4 And Jehovah said to Moses, Put forth thy hand, and take it by the tail (and he put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a rod in his hand),
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Kui, sruokya pulal ac srukak.” Na Moses el asroela paul ac sruokya, na wet soko ah sifilpa ekla sikal soko.
5 that they may believe that Jehovah, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to thee.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Oru ouinge in akpwayei nu sin mwet Israel lah LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos — God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob — El sikyak nu sum.”
6 And Jehovah said furthermore to him, Put now thy hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom. And when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as snow.
LEUM GOD El sifilpa kaskas nu sel Moses, “Isongya poum nu luin nuknuk lom an.” Moses el akos; ac ke el eisla paol liki nuknuk lal ah, mas lepa oan kac, fasrfasr oana snow.
7 And he said, Put thy hand into thy bosom again. (And he put his hand into his bosom again, and when he took it out of his bosom, behold, it was turned again as his other flesh.)
Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Sifilpa isongya poum nu luin nuknuk lom an.” El oru oana, ac ke el eisla, paol kwela ac oana meet ah.
8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, nor hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Elos fin tiana porongekom ku lulalfongi mwenmen se meet an, na elos ac fah lulalfongi ke mwenmen se akluo uh.
9 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe even these two signs, nor hearken to thy voice, that thou shall take of the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land. And the water which thou take out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land.
Na elos fin tiana lulalfongi ke mwenmen luo inge ac srakna tia lungse lohng pusrem, kom utiya kutu kof infacl Nile ac ukuiya infohk ah. Kof ah ac fah ekla nu ke srah.”
10 And Moses said to Jehovah, Oh, Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou have spoken to thy servant, for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.
Tuh Moses el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas nu sik. Nga nuna mwet supah in kaskas se, ac inge ke kom sramsram nu sik, nga srakna supah in kas. Nga pahtlac in nunkauk ma ngan fahk, ac nga kaskas lohlo.”
11 And Jehovah said to him, Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes a man dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, Jehovah?
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Su orala oalin mwet uh? Su oru mwet se in koflana kaskas ku sulohngkas? Su orala mwet se in liyaten ku in kun? Nga, LEUM GOD.
12 Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shall speak.
Fahsrot! Nga ac kasrekom in sramsram, ac nga ac fah fahk nu sum ma kom in fahk.”
13 And he said, Oh, Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou will send.
Tuh Moses el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas, supwala siena mwet.”
14 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is there not Aaron thy brother the Levite? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he comes forth to meet thee, and when he sees thee, he will be glad in his heart.
Na LEUM GOD El kasrkusrakak sel Moses ac fahk, “Ac Aaron, tamulel Levi se wiom ah? Nga etu lah el mwet pah in kas se. Inge, el ac tuku in osun nu sum, ac el ac arulana engan in liye kom.
15 And thou shall speak to him, and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do,
Kom ku in sramsram nu sel ac fahk ma elan fahk. Nga ac kasrekomtal kewa in kaskas, ac nga ac fahk nu sumtal ma komtal in oru.
16 and he shall be thy spokesman to the people. And it shall come to pass, that he shall be to thee a mouth, and thou shall be to him as God.
El ac fah mwet sramsram lom ac aol kom in kaskas nu sin mwet uh. Na kom ac fah oana God nu sel in fahkang ma elan fahk.
17 And thou shall take this rod in thy hand, with which thou shall do the signs.
Us sikal soko ingan wi kom — kom ac fah orek mwenmen kac.”
18 And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
Na Moses el folokla nu yorol Jethro, papa tumun mutan kial, ac fahk nu sel, “Nunak munas, lela nga in folokla nu yurin sou luk in acn Egypt in liye lah elos srakna moul.” Jethro el insese nu kac ac wilkas nu sel.
19 And Jehovah said to Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt, for all the men are dead who sought thy life.
Ke Moses el srakna muta Midian, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Folokla nu Egypt tuh elos nukewa su suk in unikomi elos misa.”
20 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. And Moses took the rod of God in his hand.
Ouinge Moses el us mutan kial ac wen natul, fuhleltal uh fin soko donkey ac mukuiyak nu Egypt. El us sikal soko ma God El fahk nu sel elan us.
21 And Jehovah said to Moses, When thou go back into Egypt, see that thou do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in thy hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.
LEUM GOD El sifilpa fahk nu sel Moses, “Inge ke kom ac folokla nu Egypt uh, aklohya in oru mwenmen nukewa ma nga sot ku nu sum in oru ye mutal tokosra. Tusruktu nga fah akupaye nunkal tokosra, ac el ac fah tia fuhlela mwet uh in som.
22 And thou shall say to Pharaoh, Thus says Jehovah, Israel is my son, my firstborn,
Na kom fah fahk nu sel lah nga, LEUM GOD, fahk mu, ‘Israel pa wen se emeet nutik.
23 and I have said to thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me, and thou have refused to let him go. Behold, I will slay thy son, thy firstborn.
Nga fahk nu sum in fuhlela wen nutik in som tuh elan ku in alu nu sik, a kom srunga. Inge nga ac uniya wen se oemeet nutum.’”
24 And it came to pass on the way at the lodging-place, that Jehovah met him, and sought to kill him.
Ke sie acn in aktuktuk ke inkanek nu Egypt, LEUM GOD El sonol Moses ac oru elan unilya.
25 Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet. And she said, Surely a bridegroom of blood thou are to me.
Tuh Zipporah el srukak eot kosroh se, ac supukla kulun ma mukul lun wen natul, ac sang pusralla falkal Moses, ac fahk, “Pwayena kom pa mukul ke srah tumuk.”
26 So he let him alone. Then she said, A bridegroom of blood thou are, because of the circumcision.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El tila unilya Moses. Na mutan sac sifilpa fahk, “Kom mukul tumuk in srah ke sripen kosrala.”
27 And Jehovah said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went, and met him on the mountain of God, and kissed him.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Aaron, “Som nu yen mwesis in osun nu sel Moses.” Ouinge el som ac sonol pe eol mutal. Ac ke el sonol el ngok mutal.
28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of Jehovah with which he had sent him, and all the signs with which he had ordered him.
Na Moses el fahkang nu sel Aaron ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk ke El supwal elan folok nu Egypt. El oayapa srumun ke mwenmen su LEUM GOD El sapkin elan oru.
29 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the sons of Israel.
Ouinge Moses ac Aaron som nu Egypt ac pangoneni mwet kol lun Israel nukewa nu sie.
30 And Aaron spoke all the words which Jehovah had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.
Aaron el srumun nu selos ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, na Moses el oru mwenmen nukewa ye mutalos.
31 And the people believed. And when they heard that Jehovah had visited the sons of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.
Elos lulalfongi ma elos liye ac lohng, ac ke elos lohng lah LEUM GOD El tuku nu yorolos ac liye lupan mwe keok orek nu selos, elos faksufi ac alu.
