Exodus 6
1 But the LORD said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh, for because of My mighty hand he will let the people go; because of My strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Ugbu a, ị ga-ahụ ihe m ga-eme Fero. Nʼihi ike aka m, ọ ga-ezipụ ha. Nʼihi ike aka, ọ ga-achụpụ ha site nʼala ya.”
2 God also told Moses, “I am the LORD.
Chineke gara nʼihu gwa Mosis sị, “Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by My name the LORD I did not make Myself known to them.
Egosiri m Ebraham na Aịzik na Jekọb onwe m dịka Chineke, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile. Ma ọ dịghị mgbe m mere ka ha mata aha m dịka Onyenwe anyị.
4 I also established My covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as foreigners.
Emere m ka ọgbụgba ndụ m guzosie ike nʼetiti mụ na ha, ọgbụgba ndụ nke inye ha ala Kenan ebe ha biri dịka ndị ọbịa.
5 Furthermore, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered My covenant.
Ugbu a, anụla m ịsụ ude ụmụ Izrel, bụ ndị ahụ ndị Ijipt mere ka ha bụrụ ndị ohu. Echetakwala m ọgbụgba ndụ m.
6 Therefore tell the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians and deliver you from their bondage. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.
“Ya mere, gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Abụ m Onyenwe anyị. Aga m akpọpụta unu site nʼọnọdụ ịbụ ohu ndị Ijipt. Aga m eme ka unu nwere onwe unu site nʼọnọdụ ịbụ ndị ohu nye ha. Aga m eji aka ike m nke m ga-esetipụ, ya na ihe ngosipụta dị ukwuu nke ikpe ikpe m, gbapụta unu.
7 I will take you as My own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
Mgbe ahụ, aga m ewere unu ka unu bụrụ ndị m. Aga m abụ Chineke unu. Unu ga-amata na m bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye kpọpụtara unu site nʼaka ịbụ ohu nʼala Ijipt.
8 And I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD!’”
Aga m akpọbata unu nʼala ahụ m weliri aka m elu, ṅụọ nʼiyi, nye Ebraham, na Aịzik, na Jekọb, ime ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.’”
9 Moses relayed this message to the Israelites, but on account of their broken spirit and cruel bondage, they did not listen to him.
Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel ihe ndị a, ma ha egeghị ntị nʼihi ịda mba nke obi ha na ahụhụ sitere na ndọgbu nʼọrụ ha.
10 So the LORD said to Moses,

11 “Go and tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his land.”
“Gaa gwa Fero eze Ijipt, ka ọ hapụ ụmụ Izrel ka ha pụọ nʼala ya.”
12 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “If the Israelites will not listen to me, then why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I am unskilled in speech?”
Mosis kwuru nʼihu Onyenwe anyị sị, “Mgbe ụmụ Izrel na-aṅaghị m ntị, olee otu Fero ga-esi ṅaa m ntị? Nke ka nke, enweghị m ike ikwu okwu nke ọma.”
