< Exodus 4 >

1 Then Moses answered, “What if they do not believe me or listen to my voice? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”
Markaasaa Muuse jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Laakiinse, bal ogow, ima ay rumaysan doonaan, codkaygana ma ay dhegaysan doonaan, waayo, waxay igu odhan doonaan, Rabbigu kuuma uu muuqanin.
2 And the LORD asked him, “What is that in your hand?” “A staff,” he replied.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa maxay waxaas gacantaada ku jiraa? Oo wuxuu yidhi, Waa ul.
3 “Throw it on the ground,” said the LORD. So Moses threw it on the ground, and it became a snake, and he ran from it.
Markaasuu ku yidhi, Bal dhulka ku tuur. Markaasuu dhulka ku tuuray, oo waxay noqotay abeeso. Kolkaasaa Muuse ka hor cararay.
4 “Stretch out your hand and grab it by the tail,” the LORD said to Moses, who reached out his hand and caught the snake, and it turned back into a staff in his hand.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Bal gacanta soo fidi oo dabada ku dheg, kolkaasuu gacantii soo fidiyey oo dabada ku dhegay, kolkaasay noqotay ul gacantiisa ku jirta.
5 “This is so that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has appeared to you.”
Sidaas yeel inay ku rumaystaan inuu kuu muuqday Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashood, oo ah Ilaahii Ibraahim, iyo Ilaahii Isxaaq, iyo Ilaahii Yacquub.
6 Furthermore, the LORD said to Moses, “Put your hand inside your cloak.” So he put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, his hand was leprous, white as snow.
Oo Rabbigu wuxuu kaloo ku sii yidhi isagii, Bal gacanta laabta saar, markaasuu gacanta laabta saaray, oo markii uu ka qaaday, bal eeg, gacantii baras bay yeelatay oo waxay u caddaatay sida baraf cad.
7 “Put your hand back inside your cloak,” said the LORD. So Moses put his hand back inside his cloak, and when he took it out, it was restored, like the rest of his skin.
Markaasuu ku yidhi, Bal gacanta laabta mar kale saar. Kolkaasuu mar kale gacantii laabta saaray, oo markii uu ka qaaday laabtii, bal eeg, waxay haddana u rogmatay oo u ekaatay sida jidhkiisii kale.
8 And the LORD said, “If they refuse to believe you or heed the witness of the first sign, they may believe that of the second.
Oo waxay noqon doontaa, hadday kugu rumaysan waayaan oo ay calaamada hore codkeeda maqli waayaan, de markaas calaamada dambe codkeeday rumaysan doonaan.
9 But if they do not believe even these two signs or listen to your voice, take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. Then the water you take from the Nile will become blood on the ground.”
Oo haddana waxay noqon doontaa, hadday rumaysan waayaan labadan calaamo, oo weliba ay codkaaga maqli waayaan, de markaas bal waa inaad webiga biyo ka qaaddid oo aad dhulka engegan ku shubtid, oo biyihii aad webiga ka qaadday, markay gaadhaan dhulka engegan dhiig bay noqon doonaan.
10 “Please, Lord,” Moses replied, “I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since You have spoken to Your servant, for I am slow of speech and tongue.”
Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Rabbiga ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, anigu codkar ma ahi, hadda iyo hore toona, iyo tan iyo markaad ila hadashay anigoo addoonkaaga ah, maxaa yeelay, anigu hadalka waan shigaa, waanan carrab la'ahay.
11 And the LORD said to him, “Who gave man his mouth? Or who makes the mute or the deaf, the sighted or the blind? Is it not I, the LORD?
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Kan dadka afkiisa sameeyey waa ayo? Yaase dadka carrab tira, ama dhego tira, ama wax tusa, ama indho tira? Sow anigan Rabbiga ah ma aha?
12 Now go! I will help you as you speak, and I will teach you what to say.”
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed tag, oo anigaa afkaaga la jiri doona oo ku bari doona wixii aad ku hadli lahayd.
13 But Moses replied, “Please, Lord, send someone else.”
Isna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Waan ku baryayaaye, dir kaad doonaysid inaad dirtid.
14 Then the anger of the LORD burned against Moses, and He said, “Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well, and he is now on his way to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
Markaasaa Rabbigu u cadhooday Muuse, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Sow ma joogo walaalkaa Haaruun oo ah reer Laawi? Waan ogahay inuu isagu si wanaagsan u hadli karo. Oo bal ogow, wuu u soo socdaa inuu kula kulmo, oo markuu ku arko, qalbigiisuu ka farxi doonaa.
15 You are to speak to him and put the words in his mouth. I will help both of you to speak, and I will teach you what to do.
Haddaba waa inaad isaga la hadashaa, oo aad erayada afkiisa ku riddaa, oo anigu afkaagaan la jiri doonaa, iyo afkiisaba, oo waxaan idin barayaa wixii aad samayn lahaydeen.
16 He will speak to the people for you. He will be your spokesman, and it will be as if you were God to him.
Oo isagu wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa ninka dadka kuula hadla, oo waxay noqon doontaa inuu isagu af kuu noqdo, adna waxaad isaga u noqon doontaa Ilaah oo kale.
17 But take this staff in your hand so you can perform signs with it.”
Haddaba waa inaad gacanta ku qaadatid ushan aad cajaa'ibyada ku samayn doontid.
18 Then Moses went back to his father-in-law Jethro and said to him, “Please let me return to my brothers in Egypt to see if they are still alive.” “Go in peace,” Jethro replied.
Markaasaa Muuse tegey oo wuxuu ku noqday soddoggiis Yetroo, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, Bal i sii daa aan tagee, oo ku noqdo walaalahayga Masar jooga, oo aan soo arkee bal inay nool yihiin iyo in kale. Markaasaa Yetroo wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Nabad ku tag.
19 Now the LORD had said to Moses in Midian, “Go back to Egypt, for all the men who sought to kill you are dead.”
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi Muuse, isagoo Midyaan jooga, Tag, oo Masar ku noqo, waayo, dadkii doondoonayay inay nafta kaa qaadaan way wada dhinteen.
20 So Moses took his wife and sons, put them on a donkey, and headed back to Egypt. And he took the staff of God in his hand.
Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu watay naagtiisii iyo wiilashiisii, oo wuxuu saartay dameer, wuxuuna ku noqday dalkii Masar. Markaasaa Muuse ushii Ilaah gacanta ku qaatay.
21 The LORD instructed Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders that I have put within your power. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
Rabbiguna wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Markii aad Masar ku noqotid, cajaa'ibyadii aan gacantaada ku riday oo dhan Fircoon hortiisa ku samee, laakiinse anigu qalbigiisaan qallafin doonaa, oo dadka ma uu sii dayn doono inay tagaan.
22 Then tell Pharaoh that this is what the LORD says: ‘Israel is My firstborn son,
Oo waxaad Fircoon ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Israa'iil waa wiilkayga curadka ah,
23 and I told you to let My son go so that he may worship Me. But since you have refused to let him go, behold, I will kill your firstborn son!’”
oo waxaan adiga kugu idhi, Wiilkayga sii daa, ha tagee oo ha ii adeegee. Adiguse waad u diiday inuu tago. Bal hadda ogow, waxaan dili doonaa wiilkaaga curadka ah.
24 Now at a lodging place along the way, the LORD met Moses and was about to kill him.
Intay jidka sii socdeen meel bay ku habeen dhexeen, Rabbi baana ugu yimid, oo wuxuu damcay inuu dilo isaga.
25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin, and touched it to Moses’ feet. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said.
Markaasaa Siforaah waxay qaadatay dhagax af leh, oo wiilkeedii buuryadiisii bay ku gooysay, oo waxay ku ag tuurtay cagihiisa oo tidhi, Hubaal waxaad ii tahay arooskii dhiigga.
26 So the LORD let him alone. (When she said, “bridegroom of blood,” she was referring to the circumcision.)
Markaasuu iska daayay isagii. Kolkaasay tidhi, Waxaad ii tahay arooskii dhiigga gudniinta aawadeed.
27 Meanwhile, the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Haaruun ku yidhi, Tag inaad Muuse kaga hor tagtid cidlada dhexdeeda. Markaasuu tegey, oo wuxuu kaga hor tegey buurta Ilaah, kolkaasuu dhunkaday.
28 And Moses told Aaron everything the LORD had sent him to say, and all the signs He had commanded him to perform.
Kolkaasaa Muuse wuxuu Haaruun u sheegay erayadii Rabbigu u soo faray oo dhan, iyo calaamooyinkii uu ku amray oo dhan.
29 Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the Israelites,
Markaasaa Muuse iyo Haaruun tageen oo waxay isu soo ururiyeen waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
30 and Aaron relayed everything the LORD had said to Moses. And Moses performed the signs before the people,
Markaasaa Haaruun kula hadlay erayadii Rabbigu Muuse u soo faray oo dhan, calaamooyinkiina dadka hortiisuu ku sameeyey.
31 and they believed. And when they heard that the LORD had attended to the Israelites and had seen their affliction, they bowed down and worshiped.
Dadkiina way rumaysteen, oo markay maqleen inuu Rabbigu soo booqday reer binu Israa'iil iyo inuu arkay dhibaatadooda ayay madaxa hoos u foorariyeen oo caabudeen.
