Exodus 10
1 And the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh. For I have hardened his heart, and that of his servants, so that I may accomplish these, my signs, in him,
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Pita kwa Farao, pakuti Ine ndawumitsa mtima wake ndi mitima ya nduna zake kuti ndichite zizindikiro zozizwitsa pakati pawo
2 and so that you may describe to the ears of your sons and your grandsons how often I opposed the Egyptians and wrought my signs among them, and so that you may know that I am the Lord.”
kuti inu mudzawuze ana ndi zidzukulu zanu za mmene ndinawakhawulitsira Aigupto ndi zizindikiro zozizwitsa zimene ndinachita pakati pawo ndiponso kuti inu mudziwe kuti ine ndine Yehova.”
3 Therefore, Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they said to him: “Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: How long will you be unwilling to be subject to me? Release my people to sacrifice to me.
Ndipo Mose ndi Aaroni anapita kwa Farao ndi kukanena kuti, “Yehova Mulungu wa Ahebri, akuti: ‘Kodi udzakanabe kudzichepetsa pamaso panga mpaka liti? Alole anthu anga apite kuti akandipembedze.
4 But if you resist, and you are unwilling to release them, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your borders.
Ngati ukana kuwalola, ndigwetsa dzombe mʼdziko lako lino mawa.
5 And they shall cover the face of the earth, lest any part of it be seen. Yes, and what remains from the hail shall be eaten. For they will gnaw away all the trees that spring up in the fields.
Dzombeli lidzakuta nthaka yonse moti sidzaoneka konse. Lidzadya kalikonse kakangʼono kamene sikanawonongedwe ndi matalala aja, kuphatikizapo mitengo yonse imene ikumera mʼminda yanu.
6 And they will fill your houses, and those of your servants and of all the Egyptians: so many as your fathers and ancestors have not seen, from the time that they rose up over the earth, even until this present day.” And he turned himself away, and he departed from Pharaoh.
Dzombeli lidzadzaza nyumba zako ndi za nduna zako ndiponso za Aigupto onse, chinthu chimene ngakhale makolo anu kapena makolo awo sanachionepo kuyambira tsiku limene anakhala mʼdzikoli mpaka lero.’” Ndipo Mose ndi Aaroni anatembenuka ndi kumusiya Farao.
7 Then the servants of Pharaoh said to him: “How long must we endure this scandal? Release the men, in order to sacrifice to the Lord their God. Do you not see that Egypt is perishing?”
Nduna za Farao zinamufunsa kuti, “Kodi munthu uyu adzativutitsa mpaka liti? Aloleni anthuwa apite, kuti akapembedze Yehova Mulungu wawo. Kodi simukuona kuti dziko la Igupto lawonongeka?”
8 And they called back Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, who said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord your God. Who are they who would go?”
Choncho Mose ndi Aaroni anayitanidwanso kwa Farao ndipo anati, “Pitani kapembedzeni Yehova Mulungu wanu. Koma ndani amene adzapite?”
9 Moses said: “We will travel with our little ones and our elderly, with our sons and daughters, with our sheep and herds. For it is a solemnity of the Lord our God.”
Mose anayankha kuti, “Ife tidzapita tonse pamodzi; angʼonoangʼono ndi akuluakulu, ana athu aamuna ndi aakazi, ndiponso ziweto zathu ndi ngʼombe chifukwa tikakhala ndi chikondwerero cha kwa Yehova.”
10 And Pharaoh responded: “So let the Lord be with you. But if I were to release you and your little ones, who would doubt that you intend some great wickedness?
Farao anati, “Yehova akhale ndi inu ngati ndingakuloleni kupita pamodzi ndi akazi ndi ana anu! Zikuoneka kuti mwakonzeka kuchita choyipa.
11 It will not be so. However, go only with the men, and sacrifice to the Lord. For this, too, is what you yourselves requested.” And immediately they were cast out from the sight of Pharaoh.
Ndakana! Amuna okha ndiwo apite ndi kukapembedza Yehova pakuti izi ndi zimene mwakhala mukupempha.” Kenaka Mose ndi Aaroni anathamangitsidwa pamaso pa Farao.
12 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the land of Egypt, toward the locusts, so that they may rise up over it, and devour every plant which remains from the hail.”
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Tambalitsa dzanja lako pa dziko la Igupto kuti dzombe lidze pa dziko la Igupto ndi kuwononga chilichonse chimene chikumera mʼminda ndi chilichonse chimene chinatsala pa nthawi ya matalala.”
13 And Moses extended his staff over the land of Egypt. And the Lord brought a burning wind all that day and night. And when morning came, the burning wind lifted up the locusts.
Kotero Mose anakweza ndodo yake pa dziko la Igupto, ndipo Yehova anawutsa mphepo ya kummawa imene inawomba pa dziko usana ndi usiku wonse. Mmene kumacha nʼkuti mphepoyo itabweretsa dzombe.
14 And they ascended over the entire land of Egypt. And they settled into all the parts of the Egyptians: innumerable, such as had not been before that time, nor ever would be thereafter.
Dzombelo linafika pa dziko lonse la Igupto ndi kukhala dera lililonse la dzikolo. Dzombe lambiri ngati limenelo silinakhaleponso nʼkale lonse ndipo silidzakhalapo ngakhale mʼtsogolo.
15 And they covered the entire face of the land, laying waste to all things. And the plants of the land were devoured, along with whatever fruits were on the trees, which the hail had left behind. And nothing at all of the greenery remained on the trees or on the plants of the earth in all of Egypt.
Dzombelo linaphimba nthaka yonse mpaka kuoneka kuti bii. Linadya zonse zimene zinatsala nthawi ya matalala, zomera za mʼmunda ndi zipatso. Panalibe chobiriwira chilichonse chimene chinatsala pa mtengo kapena pa chomera chilichonse mʼdziko lonse la Igupto.
16 For this reason, Pharaoh hurriedly called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
Mwamsangamsanga, Farao anayitanitsa Mose ndi Aaroni ndipo anati, “Ine ndachimwira Yehova Mulungu wanu ndiponso inu.
17 But now, release me from my sin even this time, and petition the Lord your God, so that he may take this death away from me.”
Tsopano ndikhululukirenso tchimo langa kano konkha ndipo pempherani kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu kuti andichotsere mliri wosakazawu.”
18 And Moses, departing from the sight of Pharaoh, prayed to the Lord.
Mose anachoka kwa Farao nakapemphera kwa Yehova.
19 And he caused a very strong wind to blow from the west, and, seizing the locusts, it cast them into the Red Sea. There remained not so much as one in all the parts of Egypt.
Ndipo Yehova anasintha mphepo ija kuti ikhale ya mphamvu yochokera ku madzulo, ndipo inanyamula dzombe lija nʼkulikankhira mʼNyanja Yofiira. Panalibe dzombe ndi limodzi lomwe limene linatsala mu Igupto.
20 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; neither did he release the sons of Israel.
Koma Yehova anawumitsa mtima wa Farao, ndipo sanalole kuti Aisraeli apite.
21 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky. And let there be a darkness over the land of Egypt, so dense that they may be able to feel it.”
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Tambasulira dzanja lako kumwamba kuti kukhale mdima umene udzaphimba dziko lonse la Igupto, mdima wandiweyani.”
22 And Moses extended his hand into the sky. And there came a horrible darkness in the entire land of Egypt for three days.
Choncho Mose anakweza dzanja lake kumwamba ndipo mdima wandiweyani unaphimba dziko lonse la Igupto kwa masiku atatu.
23 No one saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was. But wherever the sons of Israel were living, there was light.
Palibe amene anatha kuona mnzake kapena kuchoka pa khomo pake kwa masiku atatu. Koma kumalo kumene kumakhala Aisraeli kunali kowala.
24 And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord. Only let your sheep and herds remain behind. Your little ones may go with you.”
Kenaka Farao anayitanitsa Mose ndi Aaroni nati, “Pitani kapembedzeni Yehova. Ngakhale akazi ndi ana anu apite pamodzi ndi inu. Koma musatenge ziweto zanu ndi ngʼombe zanu.”
25 Moses said: “You must also permit us victims and holocausts, which we may offer to the Lord our God.
Koma Mose anati, “Ndiye inu mutipatse nsembe zopsereza zoti tikapereke kwa Yehova Mulungu wathu.
26 All the flocks shall travel with us. Not one hoof of them shall remain behind. For they are necessary for the worship of the Lord our God, especially since we do not know what ought to be immolated, until we arrive at the very place.”
Koma ayi, ife tipita ndi ziweto zathu. Palibe chiweto chilichonse chimene chitatsale kuno, popeza tikasankha komweko ziweto zokapembedzera Yehova. Sitingadziwe zimene tikagwiritse ntchito popembedza Yehova mpaka titakafika kumeneko.”
27 But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he was not willing to release them.
Koma Yehova anawumitsa mtima wa Farao ndipo sanafune kuwalola kuti apite.
28 And Pharaoh said to Moses: “Withdraw from me, and beware that you no longer see my face. On whatever day you will appear in my sight, you shall die.”
Farao anati kwa Mose, “Choka pamaso panga! Uwonetsetse kuti usadzaonekerenso pamaso panga! Tsiku limene ndidzakuonenso udzafa.”
29 Moses responded: “So be it, just as you have said. I will no longer see your face.”
Mose anayankha kuti, “Monga momwe mwaneneramu, Ine sindidzaonekeranso pamaso panu.”
