Exodus 5
1 After that, Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness.’”
Tampetse izay le niheo mb’amy Parò mb’eo t’i Mosè naho i Aharone, nanao ty hoe, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Angao hañavelo mb’eo ondatikoo hanoe’ iereo sabadidak’ amako am-patrambey añe.
2 But Pharaoh replied, “Who is the LORD that I should obey His voice and let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and I will not let Israel go.”
Aa hoe t’i Parò, Ia ze o Iehovà zao te ho haoñeko ty feo’e hampiavotako Israele. Amoeako ze o Iehovà zao vaho tsy hapoko hionjoñe ka t’Israele.
3 “The God of the Hebrews has met with us,” they answered. “Please let us go on a three-day journey into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD our God, or He may strike us with plagues or with the sword.”
Le hoe iereo, Nifañaoñe ama’ay t’i Andrianañahare’ o nte-Evreo; aa le hañavelo lia telo andro mb’ ampatrañe añe zahay hisoroñe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, tsy mone hampiambotraha’e am’ angorosy ndra fibara.
4 But the king of Egypt said to them, “Moses and Aaron, why do you draw the people away from their work? Get back to your labor!”
Fe hoe ty mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime am’ iereo. O Mosè naho Aharone, inom-bao ty hampisitahañe ondatio amo fitoloña’eo? Mimpolia amo fijinia’areoo!
5 Pharaoh also said, “Look, the people of the land are now numerous, and you would be stopping them from their labor.”
Tinovo’ i Parò ty hoe, Ingo te maro t’indaty an-tane ao henaneo vaho ipaia’ areo hitroatse tsy hitoloñe!
6 That same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their foremen:
Aa le linili’ i Parò amy andro zay amo mpanao bozizi’ iareoo naho amo mpisari’ iareoo, ty hoe:
7 “You shall no longer supply the people with straw for making bricks. They must go and gather their own straw.
Tsy hatolotse ahetse ka ondatio fe hamboatse birike mira amy teoy; angao hatonto’ iareo ze ahetse paiaeñe.
8 But require of them the same quota of bricks as before; do not reduce it. For they are lazy; that is why they are crying out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’
Le ampano’ areo birike mira amy nanoeñe taoloy, tsy haketrake, amy t’ie votro, izay ty mampitoreo iareo ami’ty hoe: Apoho hiavotse añe hisoroñe aman’ Añahare’ay.
9 Make the work harder on the men so they will be occupied and pay no attention to these lies.”
Anovoño asa ondatio, hifanehafa’ iareo tsy hitsanom-bolam-bande.
10 So the taskmasters and foremen of the people went out and said to them, “This is what Pharaoh says: ‘I am no longer giving you straw.
Aa le niakatse mb’eo o mpanao bozizio naho o mpisari’ ondatioo, nanao ty hoe am’ondatio, Hoe t’i Parò, Tsy hitolorako ahetse.
11 Go and get your own straw wherever you can find it; but your workload will in no way be reduced.’”
Akia, atontono ahetse amy ze hahatendreha’ areo, fe tsy haketrake ty fitoloña’ areo.
12 So the people scattered all over the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
Aa le fonga niparaitak’ an-tane Mitsraime ao ondatio nanontone tain-ava hasolo i bokay.
13 The taskmasters kept pressing them, saying, “Fulfill your quota each day, just as you did when straw was provided.”
Tinaentae’ o mpanao bozizio ka ami’ty hoe, Henefo ty fitoloña’ areo lomoñandro ho mira amy fasiañ’ ahetse teoy.
14 Then the Israelite foremen, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over the people, were beaten and asked, “Why have you not fulfilled your quota of bricks yesterday or today, as you did before?”
Finofoke ka o talèm-pitoloña’ o ana’ Israele najado’ o mpanao bozizi’ i Paròo am’ iareoo, ami’ty hoe, Akore te tsy nihenefa’ areo anindroany naho omale ty lili’areo amo birike manahake te taoloo?
15 So the Israelite foremen went and appealed to Pharaoh: “Why are you treating your servants this way?
Aa le niheo mb’amy Parò mb’eo o talè ana’ Israeleo nitoreo ty hoe, Ino ty anoa’o hoe zao o mpitoro’oo?
16 No straw has been given to your servants, yet we are told, ‘Make bricks!’ Look, your servants are being beaten, but the fault is with your own people.”
Tsy ho tolorañe boka o mpitoro’oo, fa hoe iereo ama’ay, Mañamboara birike! Hehe te finofoke zahay vaho manao hakeo ondati’oo.
17 “You are slackers!” Pharaoh replied. “Slackers! That is why you keep saying, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.’
Hoe re, Mikopiso avao ty tembo retia, izay ty atao’ areo ty hoe, Angao hisoroñe amy Iehovà.
18 Now get to work. You will be given no straw, yet you must deliver the full quota of bricks.”
Akia, arè, mitromaha fe tsy homeañe ahetse vaho mbe hasese’ areo ty anjara’ birike.
19 The Israelite foremen realized they were in trouble when they were told, “You must not reduce your daily quota of bricks.”
Nirendre’ o talè, ana’ Israeleo, t’ie am-poheke amy saontsi’ey, ty hoe, Tsy haketra’ areo ty anjara birike lomoñandro.
20 When they left Pharaoh, they confronted Moses and Aaron, who stood waiting to meet them.
Ie nienga i Parò, le nifanjò amy Mosè naho i Aharone nijohañe ey hifanalaka am’iereo,
21 “May the LORD look upon you and judge you,” the foremen said, “for you have made us a stench before Pharaoh and his officials; you have placed in their hand a sword to kill us!”
vaho hoe ty nanoa’ iareo, Ee t’ie ho vazohoe’ Iehovà naho hizaka! Akore ty nañaimboa’ areo anay am-pihaino’ i Parò naho am-pihaino o mpitoro’eo, hanolorañe fibara am-pità’ iareo hañohofa’e loza.
22 So Moses returned to the LORD and asked, “Lord, why have You brought trouble upon this people? Is this why You sent me?
Nitolik’ am’ Iehovà indraike t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe, Ry Talè, akore ty fanilofañe ondaty retoañe? Ino o namantoha’o ahio?
23 Ever since I went to Pharaoh to speak in Your name, he has brought trouble on this people, and You have not delivered Your people in any way.”
Fa boak’ ami’ty niheovako amy Parò hivolañe amy tahina’oy, le nanoe’e samporerake ondaty retoa vaho tsy rinomba’o ondati’oo.
