< Exodus 14 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea: before Baal-Zephon, opposite to it, shall ye encamp by the sea.
“Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí wọn padà sẹ́yìn, kí wọ́n sì pàgọ́ sí tòsí Pi-Hahirotu láàrín Migdoli òun Òkun, kí wọn kí ó pàgọ́ sí ẹ̀bá Òkun, ní òdìkejì Baali-Ṣefoni.
3 And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has hemmed them in.
Farao yóò ronú pé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń ráre káàkiri ní ìdààmú ni àti wí pé aginjù náà ti sé wọn mọ́.
4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he may pursue after them; and I will glorify myself in Pharaoh, and in all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah. And they did so.
Èmi yóò sé ọkàn Farao le ti yóò fi lépa wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò gba ògo fún ará mi láti ìpàṣẹ Farao àti ogun rẹ̀, àti pé àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa.” Àwọn Israẹli sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
5 And it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his bondmen was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from our service?
Nígbà tí wọ́n sọ fún ọba Ejibiti pé àwọn ènìyàn náà ti sálọ, ọkàn Farao àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ yí padà sí àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Kí ni ohun tí àwa ṣe yìí? Àwa ti jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí ó lọ, a sì ti pàdánù ìsìnrú wọn.”
6 And he yoked his chariot, and took his people with him.
Ó sì di kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀, ó sì kó àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀,
7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
ó mú ẹgbẹ̀ta ọmọ-ogun oníkẹ̀kẹ́ tí ó jáfáfá jùlọ àti gbogbo ọmọ-ogun oníkẹ̀kẹ́ mìíràn ní Ejibiti, olórí sì wà fún olúkúlùkù wọn.
8 And Jehovah hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel had gone out with a high hand.
Olúwa sé ọkàn Farao ọba Ejibiti le, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí lépa àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti ń jáde lọ ní àìbẹ̀rù.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, — all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them where they had encamped by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, opposite to Baal-Zephon.
Àwọn ará Ejibiti ń lépa wọn pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹṣin kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun Farao àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀, wọ́n sì lé wọn bá ni ibi tí wọ́n pa àgọ́ sí lẹ́bàá òkun ní ìhà Pi-Hahirotu, ni òdìkejì Baali-Ṣefoni.
10 And Pharaoh approached; and the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and the children of Israel were much afraid, and cried out to Jehovah.
Bí Farao ti súnmọ́ tòsí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbé ojú wọn sókè, wọn sì rí àwọn ará Ejibiti tó súnmọ́ wọn. Ẹ̀rù ńlá sì bá àwọn ará Israẹli, wọ́n kígbe sókè sí Olúwa.
11 And they said to Moses, Is it because there were no graves in Egypt, thou hast taken us away to die in the wilderness? why hast thou done this to us, that thou hast led us out of Egypt?
Wọ́n sọ fún Mose pé, “Ṣe nítorí pé kò sí ibojì ni Ejibiti ní ìwọ ṣe mú wa wá láti kú sínú aginjù? Kí ni èyí tí ìwọ ṣe sí wa ti ìwọ fi mú wa jáde láti Ejibiti wá?
12 Is not this what we told thee in Egypt, when we said, Let us alone, and we will serve the Egyptians? For [it had been] better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.
Ǹjẹ́ èyí kọ́ ni àwa sọ fún ọ ni Ejibiti, ‘Fi wá sílẹ̀, jẹ́ kí àwa máa sin ará Ejibiti’? Nítorí kò bá sàn fún wa kí a sin àwọn ará Ejibiti ju kí a kú sínú aginjù yìí lọ!”
13 And Moses said to the people, Fear not: stand still, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which he will work for you to-day; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
Nígbà náà ni Mose sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ má bẹ̀rù, ẹ dúró ṣinṣin kí ẹ sì rí ìdáǹdè tí Olúwa yóò fi fún un yín lónìí, àwọn ará Ejibiti ti ẹ̀yin rí lónìí ni ẹ kò ni tún padà rí wọn mọ́.
14 Jehovah will fight for you, and ye shall be still.
Olúwa yóò jà fún un yín; kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sá à mu sùúrù.”
15 And Jehovah said to Moses, Why dost thou cry unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ké pè mí? Sọ fún àwọn ará Israẹli kí wọn máa tẹ̀síwájú.
16 And thou, lift thy staff, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea.
Ṣùgbọ́n, gbé ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sókè, kí o sì na ọwọ́ rẹ sí orí omi Òkun, kí ó lè pín ní yà kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lè la òkun kọjá ni orí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀.
17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall pursue after them; and I will glorify myself in Pharaoh and in all his host, in his chariots and in his horsemen.
Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò sé ọkàn àwọn ará Ejibiti le, wọn yóò sì máa lépa wọn; Èmi yóò gba ògo fún ara mi lórí Farao; lórí gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti lórí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have glorified myself in Pharaoh, in his chariots and in his horsemen.
Àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa nígbà ti èmi bá gba ògo fún ara mi lórí Farao: lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun rẹ̀ àti lórí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀.”
19 And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before them, and stood behind them.
Nígbà náà ni angẹli Ọlọ́run tó ti ń ṣáájú ogun Israẹli lọ, padà o sì rìn ni ẹ̀yìn wọn; Òpó ìkùùkuu tí ń rìn ni iwájú wọn sì padà sí í rìn ni ẹ̀yìn wọn.
20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and was a cloud and darkness, and lit up the night; and the one did not come near the other all the night.
Ó sì wà láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ejibiti àti Israẹli. Ìkùùkuu sì ṣú òkùnkùn sí àwọn ará Ejibiti ni òru náà. Ṣùgbọ́n ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí àwọn Israẹli ni òru náà, ọ̀kan kò sì súnmọ́ èkejì ni gbogbo òru náà.
21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and Jehovah made the sea go [back] by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry [land], and the waters were divided.
Nígbà náà ni Mose na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí orí Òkun, ni gbogbo òru náà ni Olúwa fi lé òkun sẹ́yìn pẹ̀lú ìjì líle láti ìlà-oòrùn wá, ó sì sọ ọ́ di ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀. Omi òkun sì pínyà,
22 And the children of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry [ground]; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì la ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ kọjá nínú òkun pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ní ọ̀tún àti òsì.
23 And the Egyptians pursued and came after them — all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots and his horsemen, into the midst of the sea.
Àwọn ará Ejibiti sì ń lépa wọn, gbogbo ẹṣin Farao, kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀ wọ́ tọ̀ wọ́n lọ sínú òkun.
24 And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Jehovah looked upon the camp of the Egyptians, in the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and embarrassed the camp of the Egyptians.
Ní ìṣọ́ òwúrọ̀ Olúwa bojú wo ogun àwọn ará Ejibiti láàrín ọ̀wọ̀n iná àti ìkùùkuu, ó sì kó ìpayà bá àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ejibiti.
25 And he took off their chariot wheels, and caused them to drive with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee before Israel, for Jehovah is fighting for them against the Egyptians!
Ó sì yọ àgbá ẹsẹ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun wọn kí ó bá à le ṣòro fún wọn láti fi kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun náà rìn. Àwọn ará Ejibiti wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a sá àsálà kúrò ní iwájú àwọn ará Israẹli nítorí Olúwa ń bá wa jà nítorí wọn.”
26 And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and upon their horsemen.
Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Na ọwọ́ rẹ sí orí òkun kí omi òkun lè ya padà sórí àwọn ará Ejibiti, kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun wọn àti sórí ẹlẹ́ṣin wọn.”
27 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength toward the morning; and the Egyptians fled against it; and Jehovah overturned the Egyptians into the midst of the sea.
Mose sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí orí òkun, òkun sì padà bọ́ sí ipò rẹ̀ nígbà ti ilẹ̀ mọ́. Àwọn ará Ejibiti ń sá fún omi òkun, Olúwa sì gbá wọn sínú òkun.
28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen of all the host of Pharaoh that had come into the sea after them; there remained not even one of them.
Omi òkun sì ya padà, ó sì bo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin: àní, gbogbo ọmọ-ogun Farao tiwọn wọ inú òkun tọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ kò sí ọ̀kan nínú wọn tí ó yè.
29 And the children of Israel walked on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Israẹli la òkun kọjá lórí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ni ọ̀tún àti òsì wọn.
30 Thus Jehovah saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the sea-shore.
Ni ọjọ́ yìí ni Olúwa gba Israẹli là kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Ejibiti; Israẹli sì rí òkú àwọn ará Ejibiti ni etí òkun.
31 And Israel saw the great power [with] which Jehovah had wrought against the Egyptians; and the people feared Jehovah, and believed in Jehovah, and in Moses his bondman.
Nígbà ti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli rí iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá ti Olúwa ṣe fún wọn lára àwọn ará Ejibiti, àwọn ènìyàn bẹ̀rù Olúwa, wọ́n sì gba Olúwa àti Mose ìránṣẹ́ rẹ gbọ́.
