Exodus 5
1 And afterwards Moses and Aaron went in, and said to Pharaoh, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Let my people go that they may celebrate a feast to me in the wilderness.
Bangʼe Musa gi Harun nodhi ir Farao mi giwachone niya, “Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho kama: ‘We joga odhi, mondo gilosna sawo e thim.’”
2 And Pharaoh said, Who is Jehovah, to whose voice I am to hearken to let Israel go? I do not know Jehovah, neither will I let Israel go.
To Farao nodwokogi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye to en ngʼa, ma dimi awinj dwonde mi awe jo-Israel dhi? Ok angʼeyo Jehova Nyasaye kendo ok anawe jo-Israel dhi.”
3 And they said, The God of the Hebrews has met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with sword.
Negiwachone niya, “Nyasach jo-Hibrania oseromo kodwa. Omiyo koro yie iwe wadhi e thim kama kawo e wuodh ndalo adek mondo wachiw misengini ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, nono to dipo ka okelonwa masiche kata tho.”
4 And the king of Egypt said to them, Why do ye, Moses and Aaron, wish to have the people go off from their works? Away, to your burdens!
To ruodh Misri nowachonegi niya, “Musa gi Harun, en angʼo momiyo ugolo ji kuom tijegi ma gitimo? Doguru e tiju!”
5 And Pharaoh said, Behold the people of the land are now many, and ye wish to make them rest from their burdens.
Eka Farao nomedo wacho niya, “Neuru, ogandani koro osenyaa momedore to pod udwaro chungogi e tich.”
6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
Chiengʼ onogo Farao nogolo chik ni jorit wasumbini kod nyipeche kowachonegi niya,
7 Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.
“Kik uchak umi jo-Israel lum magilosogo matafare; to nyaka une ni giomo lum kendgi giwegi.
8 And the number of the bricks they have made heretofore shall ye lay upon them: ye shall not diminish any of it, for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go [and] sacrifice to our God.
To nyaka une ni giloso matafare ma kwan-gi romre gi mano ma gisebedo ka giloso, kik uwe kwan-go dog chien. Gin jonyawo, emomiyo gigoyo koko ni, ‘Yie iwewa wadhi kendo wachiw misango ni Nyasachwa.’
9 Let them put heavier labour on the men, that they may be taken up with it, and not regard vain words.
Keturu tich obed matekie moloyo ni jogi mondo gisiki ka gitiyo kendo kik uchik itu ne miriambogi.”
10 And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people, saying, Thus says Pharaoh: I will not give you straw:
Eka jorit wasumbini kod nyipeche ne odhi mowachone jo-Israel niya, “Ma e gima Farao wacho, ‘Ok abi miyou lum kendo.
11 go ye, get yourselves straw where ye may find it; but none of your work shall be diminished.
Dhiuru mondo udwar lumbu kamoro amora ma unyalo yude, to ngʼeuru ni tiju to ok nodwok chien kata matin.’”
12 And the people were scattered abroad throughout the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
Omiyo jo-Israel nokee e piny Misri duto ka gichoko lum.
13 And the taskmasters urged [them], saying, Fulfil your labours, the daily work, as when there was straw.
Jorit wasumbini ne kasogi kawachonegi niya, “Tiekuru tich momiu odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ, mana machal kaka ne utimo kane un gi lum.”
14 And the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, [and] it was said, Why have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick, both yesterday and to-day, as heretofore?
Nyipeche ma jo-Israel mane jotich Farao oyiero nigoyo kipenjogi niya, “En angʼo mosemonou loso matafare ndalo ariyogi kaka uloso pile?”
15 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, saying, Why dost thou deal thus with thy bondmen?
Eka nyipeche ma jo-Israel nodhi modonjo ir Farao kagiwacho niya, “Ere gima omiyo isetimone jotichni kama?
16 There is no straw given to thy bondmen, and they say to us, Make brick; and behold, thy bondmen are beaten, but it is the fault of thy people.
Jotichni ok mi kata mana lum, to eka pod inyisowa kama: ‘Losuru matafare!’ Jotichni igoyo, to jogi ema nigi ketho.”
17 And he said, Ye are idle, idle! therefore ye say, Let us go and sacrifice to Jehovah.
Eka Farao nowacho niya, “Jonyawogi un mana jonyawo! Mano e gima omiyo usiko kuwacho ni, ‘Yie wadhi mondo wachiw misango ni Jehova Nyasaye.’
18 And now go — work! and straw shall not be given you, and ye shall deliver the measure of bricks.
Koro doguru e tich, ok nomiu lum moro amora, to nyaka ulos matafare ma kar kwan-gi rom gi ma usebedo kuloso pile.”
19 And the officers of the children of Israel saw [that] it stood ill with them, because it was said, Ye shall not diminish anything from your bricks, the daily work.
Eka nyipeche ma jo-Israel nofwenyo ni gin e chandruok ka nonyisogi niya, “Ok unyal dwoko kar kwan matafare musebedo kuloso pile.”
20 And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood there to meet them, as they came out from Pharaoh.
Bangʼ kane gisea ir Farao, negiyudo Musa gi Harun karitogi mondo orom kodgi,
21 And they said to them, Jehovah look upon you and judge, that ye have made our odour to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his bondmen, putting a sword into their hand to kill us!
kendo negiwachonegi niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye neu mi ngʼadnu bura! Usemiyo wadoko gima dungʼ mangʼwe ni Farao kod jodonge kendo useketo ligangla e lwetgi mondo ginegwago.”
22 And Moses returned to Jehovah, and said, Lord, why hast thou done evil to this people? why now hast thou sent me?
Eka Musa nodok ir Jehova Nyasaye mowachone niya, “Yaye Ruoth Nyasaye, en angʼo momiyo isekelo chandruok ni ogandani? Koso ma emomiyo ni ora?
23 For ever since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all!
Nyaka nachak dhi ir Farao mondo awuo e nyingi, osekelo chandruok ni ogandani bende ok isereso ogandani ngangʼ.”
