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.”
Awo Mukama n’addamu Musa nti, “Kaakano ojja kulaba kye nnaakola Falaawo. Kubanga alibaleka ne bagenda olw’amaanyi, era olw’amaanyi alibagoba mu nsi ye.”
2 God also told Moses, “I am the LORD.
Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Nze Mukama.
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.
Nalabikira Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo nga Katonda Ayinzabyonna; kyokka saabategeeza linnya lyange nti Nze Mukama.
4 I also established My covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as foreigners.
Era nabasuubiza mu ndagaano yange okubawa ensi ya Kanani, gye baabeerangamu ng’abagwira abatambuze.
5 Furthermore, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered My covenant.
Kaakano mpulidde okusinda kw’abaana ba Isirayiri abatuntuzibwa Abamisiri mu buddu, ne nzijukira endagaano yange.
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.
“Noolwekyo tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, ‘Nze Mukama. Ndibatikkulako emigugu gy’Abamisiri, era ndibawonya obuddu, ne mbanunula n’omukono gwange ogw’amaanyi nga nsalira Abamisiri omusango.
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.
Ndibafuula abantu bange, era nnaabeeranga Katonda wammwe, era mulitegeera nga nze Mukama Katonda wammwe abawonyezza ebizibu by’Abamisiri.
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!’”
Ndibaleeta mu nsi gye nalayira okuwa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka ne Yakobo; ndigibawa n’efuuka yammwe. Nze Mukama.’”
9 Moses relayed this message to the Israelites, but on account of their broken spirit and cruel bondage, they did not listen to him.
Musa n’ategeeza abaana ba Isirayiri ebigambo ebyo. Naye tebaamuwuliriza, kubanga emitima gyali gibennyise, nga n’okutuntuzibwa kubayitiridde.
10 So the LORD said to Moses,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
11 “Go and tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his land.”
“Genda otegeeze Falaawo kabaka w’e Misiri aleke abaana ba Isirayiri bave mu nsi ye.”
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?”
Naye Musa n’addamu Mukama nti, “Laba, abaana ba Isirayiri bagaanyi okumpuliriza, kale Falaawo anampuliriza atya nze atayogera bulungi?”
13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge concerning both the Israelites and Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.
Naye Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa ne Alooni, n’abalagira bategeeze abaana ba Isirayiri ne Falaawo nti, Mukama abalagidde okuggya abaana ba Isirayiri mu nsi y’e Misiri.

26 It was this Aaron and Moses to whom the LORD said, “Bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their divisions.”
Abo ye Alooni ne Musa Mukama be yalagira nti, “Muggyeeyo abaana ba Isirayiri bonna mu nsi y’e Misiri.”
27 Moses and Aaron were the ones who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt in order to bring the Israelites out of Egypt.
Be bo abaayogera ne Falaawo, kabaka w’e Misiri, ku by’okuggyayo abaana ba Isirayiri mu Misiri. Ye Musa oyo, ne Alooni oyo.
28 Now on the day that the LORD spoke to Moses in Egypt,
Ku lunaku olwo Mukama kwe yayogerera ne Musa mu nsi y’e Misiri,
29 He said to him, “I am the LORD; tell Pharaoh king of Egypt everything I say to you.”
Mukama yagamba Musa nti, “Nze Mukama. Tegeeza Falaawo, kabaka w’e Misiri, buli kimu kyonna kye nkugamba.”
30 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “Since I am unskilled in speech, why would Pharaoh listen to me?”
Naye Musa n’addamu Mukama nti, “Nze atamanyi kwogera bulungi, Falaawo anampuliriza atya?”
