Exodus 3
1 Meanwhile, Moses was shepherding the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian. He led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.
Ní ọjọ́ kan nígbà tí Mose ń ṣọ́ agbo ẹran Jetro baba ìyàwó rẹ̀, àlùfáà Midiani. Ó da agbo ẹran náà lọ sí ọ̀nà jíjìn nínú aginjù. Ó dé Horebu, òkè Ọlọ́run.
2 There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a blazing fire from within a bush. Moses saw the bush ablaze with fire, but it was not consumed.
Níbẹ̀ ni angẹli Olúwa ti yọ sí i nínú ọ̀wọ́-iná tí ń jó láàrín igbó. Mose rí i pé iná ń jó nínú igbó ṣùgbọ́n igbó kò run.
3 So Moses thought, “I must go over and see this marvelous sight. Why is the bush not burning up?”
Nígbà náà ni Mose sọ pé, “Èmi yóò lọ wo ohun ìyanu yìí, ìdí tí iná kò fi jó igbó run.”
4 When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called out to him from within the bush, “Moses, Moses!” “Here I am,” he answered.
Nígbà tí Olúwa rí i pe Mose ti lọ láti lọ wò ó, Ọlọ́run ké pè é láti àárín igbó náà, “Mose! Mose!” Mose sì dáhùn ó wí pé, “Èmi nìyìí.”
5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”
Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Má ṣe súnmọ́ ìhín yìí, bọ́ sálúbàtà rẹ kúrò ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ, nítorí ibi tí ìwọ dúró sí i nì ilẹ̀ mímọ́ ni.”
6 Then He said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” At this, Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.
Nígbà náà ní ó wí pé, “Èmi ni Ọlọ́run baba rẹ, Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, Ọlọ́run Isaaki àti Ọlọ́run Jakọbu.” Nítorí ìdí èyí, Mose sì pa ojú rẹ̀ mọ́, nítorí ó bẹ̀rù láti bojú wo Ọlọ́run.
7 The LORD said, “I have indeed seen the affliction of My people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their oppressors, and I am aware of their sufferings.
Olúwa si wí pé, “Èmí ti rí ìpọ́njú àwọn ènìyàn mi ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, mo sì ti gbọ́ ohùn igbe wọn nítorí àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ wọn. Ìyà tí ń jẹ wọ́n sì kan mi lára.
8 I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Èmi sì ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láti gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Ejibiti, àti láti mú wọn gòkè kúrò ní ilẹ̀ náà lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí ó dára tí ó sì ní ààyè, àní ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin; ibùgbé àwọn ará Kenaani, ará Hiti, Amori, Peresi, Hifi àti Jebusi.
9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached Me, and I have seen how severely the Egyptians are oppressing them.
Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, wò ó, igbe àwọn ará Israẹli ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ mi, Èmi sì ti rí bí àwọn ará Ejibiti ti ṣe ń gbà ń jẹ wọ́n ní ìyà.
10 Therefore, go! I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring My people the Israelites out of Egypt.”
Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, lọ, èmi yóò rán ọ sí Farao láti kó àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.”
11 But Moses asked God, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”
Ṣùgbọ́n Mose wí fún Ọlọ́run pé, “Ta ni èmi, tí èmi yóò tọ Farao lọ, ti èmi yóò sì kó àwọn ará Israẹli jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti?”
12 “I will surely be with you,” God said, “and this will be the sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, all of you will worship God on this mountain.”
Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run wí fún Mose pé, “Èmi yóò wà pẹ̀lú rẹ. Èyí ni yóò jẹ́ àmì fún ọ, tí yóò fihàn pé, èmi ni ó rán ọ lọ, nígbà tí ìwọ bá kó àwọn ènìyàn náà jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ẹ̀yin yóò sin Ọlọ́run ni orí òkè yìí.”
13 Then Moses asked God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is His name?’ What should I tell them?”
Mose sì wí fún Ọlọ́run pé, “Bí mo bá tọ àwọn ará Israẹli lọ tí mo sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ọlọ́run àwọn baba yín ni ó rán mi sí i yín,’ tí wọ́n sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ mi pé, ‘Kí ni orúkọ rẹ̀?’ Kí ni èmi yóò sọ fún wọn ní ìgbà náà?”
14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
Ọlọ́run sì sọ fún Mose pé, “èmi ni ti ń jẹ́ èmi ni. Èyí ni ìwọ yóò sọ fún àwọn ará Israẹli: ‘èmi ni ni ó rán mi sí i yín.’”
15 God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation.
Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Mose pẹ̀lú pé, “Báyìí ni kí ìwọ sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ‘Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba yín; Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, Ọlọ́run Isaaki àti Ọlọ́run Jakọbu; ni ó rán mi sí i yín.’ “Èyí ni orúkọ mi títí ayérayé, orúkọ ti ẹ ó fi máa rántí mi láti ìran dé ìran.
16 Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to me and said: I have surely attended to you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt.
“Lọ, kó àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli jọ, kí o sì wí fún wọn pé, ‘Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba yín, Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, ti Isaaki, àti ti Jakọbu; ni ó farahàn mi, ó sì wí pé, lóòótọ́ èmi ti ń bojú wò yín, èmi sì ti rí ohun tí wọ́n ṣe sí i yín ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
17 And I have promised to bring you up out of your affliction in Egypt, into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.’
Èmi sì ti ṣe ìlérí láti mú un yín jáde kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú yín ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá sí ilẹ̀ Kenaani, ará Hiti, Amori, Peresi, Hifi àti Jebusi; ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin.’
18 The elders of Israel will listen to what you say, and you must go with them to the king of Egypt and tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.’
“Àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli yóò fetísílẹ̀ sí ohùn rẹ. Nígbà náà ni ìwọ, àti àwọn àgbàgbà yóò jọ tọ ọba Ejibiti lọ, ẹ ó sì wí fún un pé, ‘Olúwa, Ọlọ́run àwọn ará Heberu ti pàdé wa. Jẹ́ kí a lọ ni ìrìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta sí inú aginjù láti lọ rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run.’
19 But I know that the king of Egypt will not allow you to go unless a mighty hand compels him.
Ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ̀ pé ọba Ejibiti kò ní jẹ́ kí ẹ lọ bí kò ṣe pé ọwọ́ ńlá Ọlọ́run wà ni ara rẹ̀.
20 So I will stretch out My hand and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders I will perform among them. And after that, he will release you.
Nítorí náà, èmi yóò na ọwọ́ mí láti lu àwọn ará Ejibiti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun ìyanu tí èmi yóò ṣe ni àárín wọn. Lẹ́yìn náà, òun yóò jẹ́ kí ẹ máa lọ.
21 And I will grant this people such favor in the sight of the Egyptians that when you leave, you will not go away empty-handed.
“Èmi yóò sì jẹ́ kí ẹ bá ojúrere àwọn ará Ejibiti pàdé. Tí yóò fi jẹ́ pé ti ẹ̀yin bá ń lọ, ẹ kò ní lọ ní ọwọ́ òfo.
22 Every woman shall ask her neighbor and any woman staying in her house for silver and gold jewelry and clothing, and you will put them on your sons and daughters. So you will plunder the Egyptians.”
Gbogbo àwọn obìnrin ni ó ní láti béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn aládùúgbò wọn àti gbogbo àwọn obìnrin ti ń gbé nínú ilé rẹ fún ohun fàdákà àti wúrà àti fún aṣọ, èyí ti ẹ̀yin yóò wọ̀ sí ọrùn àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti obìnrin. Báyìí ni ẹ̀yin yóò sì kó ẹrù àwọn ará Ejibiti.”
