Exodus 10
1 And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants: that I may work these my signs in him.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Jekwuru Fero nʼihi na emeela m ka obi ya, na obi ndị na-ejere ya ozi sie ike, ka m nwee ike rụọ ọrụ ịrịbama ndị a dị iche iche nʼetiti ha.
2 And thou mayest tell in the ears of thy sons, and of they grandsons, how often I have plagued the Egyptians, and wrought my signs amongst them: and you may know that I am the Lord:
Nke a ga-abụ akụkọ unu ga-akọrọ ụmụ unu, na ụmụ ụmụ unu, banyere otu m si mesie ndị Ijipt ike, na otu m si rụọ ọrụ ịrịbama m nʼetiti ha, ime ka unu mata na m bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
3 Therefore Moses and Aaron went in to Pharao, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews: How long refusest thou to submit to me? let my people go, to sacrifice to me.
Ọzọ, Mosis na Erọn jekwuuru Fero gwa ya sị, “Nke a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị Chineke ndị Hibru kwuru, ‘Ọ bụ ruo olee mgbe ka ị ga-ajụ iwedata onwe gị ala nʼihu m? Hapụ ndị m ka ha gaa fee m ofufe.
4 But if thou resist, and wilt not let them go, behold I will bring in tomorrow the locust into thy coasts:
Ọ bụrụ na ị jụ ikwere ka ha gaa, nʼụtụtụ echi, aga m ezite igurube nʼala Ijipt.
5 To cover the face of the earth that nothing thereof may appear, but that which the hail hath left may be eaten: for they shall feed upon all the trees that spring in the fields.
Igurube ndị a ga-ekpuchi ihu ala Ijipt niile, ka mmadụ ọbụla hapụ ịhụ ala anya. Ha ga-erichapụ ihe ndị fọdụrụ bụ nke ifufe na mkpụrụ mmiri ahụ na-emebighị, tinyere osisi niile na-eto eto nʼubi unu.
6 And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of thy servants, and of all the Egyptians: such a number as thy fathers have not seen, nor thy grandfathers, from the time they were first upon the earth, until this present day. And he turned himself away, and went forth from Pharao.
Ha ga-ejupụta nʼụlọ gị, na nʼụlọ ndị na-ejere gị ozi, na nʼụlọ ndị Ijipt niile. Ihe dị otu a bụ ụdị ihe na-emetụbeghị na mbụ, nke nna gị maọbụ nna nna gị ha na-ahụtụbeghị ụdị ya site na mgbe ha bidoro ibi nʼala a tutu ruo ugbu a.’” Mgbe ahụ, Mosis tụgharịrị hapụ Fero pụọ.
7 And Pharao’s servants said to him: How long shall we endure this scandal? let the men go to sacrifice to the Lord their God. Dost thou not see that Egypt is undone?
Ndị na-ejere Fero ozi bịakwutere ya, jụọ ya sị, “Ruo ole mgbe ka nwoke a ga-anọgide na-abụrụ anyị ihe ọnwụnwa? Hapụ ndị a ka ha laa, ka ha nwee ike ife Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha ofufe. Ọ bụ na ị ghọtabeghị na e bibiela Ijipt?”
8 And they called back Moses and Aaron to Pharao: and he said to them: Go, sacrifice to the Lord your God: who are they that shall go?
Mgbe ahụ, a kpọghachiri Mosis na Erọn azụ nʼihu Fero. Ọ gwara ha sị, “Ọ dị mma, gaa feenụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ofufe.” Fero jụkwara ha sị, “Olee ndị nʼetiti unu ga-eso unu jee?”
9 Moses said: We will go with our young and old, with our sons and daughters, with our sheep and herds: for it is the solemnity of the Lord our God.
Mosis zaghachiri sị, “Anyị niile na-aga, ụmụntakịrị na ndị okenye, ụmụ anyị ndị ikom na ndị inyom, igwe ehi anyị na igwe ewu na atụrụ anyị; nʼihi na anyị na-aga ime mmemme dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị.”
10 And Pharao answered: So be the Lord with you, as I shall let you and your children go: who can doubt but that you intend some great evil?
Fero sịrị, “Ka Onyenwe anyị nọnyere unu. Ma agaghị m ekwe ka unu na ndị inyom unu, na ụmụntakịrị unu gaa. O doro anya na unu na-atụ atụmatụ ọjọọ nʼime obi unu.
11 It shall not be so: but go ye men only, and sacrifice to the Lord: for this yourselves also desired. And immediately they were cast out from Pharao’s presence.
Ọ gaghị adị otu a! Jeenụ naanị unu bụ ndị ikom gaa fee Onyenwe anyị unu ofufe, nʼihi na nke a bụ ihe unu na-arịọ.” Mgbe ahụ a chụpụrụ Mosis na Erọn site nʼihu Fero.
12 And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch forth thy hand upon the land of Egypt unto the locust, that it may come upon it, and devour every herb that is left after the hail.
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị, “Setịpụ aka gị nʼala Ijipt ka igurube jupụta na ya, kpuchie ebe niile, richapụ ihe niile na-eto eto dị nʼala ahụ bụ nke ifufe na mkpụrụ mmiri ahụ hapụrụ.”
13 And Moses stretched forth his rod upon the land of Egypt: and the Lord brought a burning wind all that day, and night: and when it was morning, the burning wind raised the locusts:
Ya mere, Mosis setịpụrụ mkpanaka ya nʼelu ala Ijipt, Onyenwe anyị mere ka ifufe nke si nʼebe anyanwụ si awa fee nʼụbọchị ahụ niile na abalị ahụ niile. Nʼụtụtụ ya, ifufe ahụ si nʼebe anyanwụ si awa bubatara igurube ndị ahụ.
14 And they came up over the whole land of Egypt: and rested in all the coasts of the Egyptians innumerable, the like as had not been before that time, nor shall be hereafter.
Ha niile kpuchichara ala Ijipt niile, site nʼotu akụkụ ruo nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ. Nke a bụ mbata igurube kachasị ibe ya njọ nʼIjipt. Ijipt agaghị enwekwa nke dịka ya ọzọ.
15 And they covered the whole face of the earth, wasting all things. And the grass of the earth was devoured, and what fruits soever were on the trees, which the hail had left: and there remained not any thing that was green on the trees, or in the herbs of the earth in all Egypt.
Ha kpuchiri ala niile ruo mgbe ọchịchịrị gbachiri ya. Ha richapụrụ ihe niile na-eto nʼubi, na mkpụrụ niile na-amị nʼosisi, bụ nke ifufe na mkpụrụ mmiri ukwu ahụ hapụrụ. Nʼikpeazụ, ọ dịghị ahịhịa ndụ fọdụrụ nʼala ma nʼelu osisi nʼIjipt niile.
16 Wherefore Pharao in haste called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
Na-atụfughị oge, Fero ziri ozi ka a kpọọ Mosis na Erọn. Mgbe ha bịara, ọ gwara ha sị, “Emehiela m megide unu na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu.
17 But now forgive me my sin this time also, and pray to the Lord your God, that he take away from me this death.
Biko gbagharakwa m mmehie nke a, ma rịọọ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ka o wepụrụ m ọnwụ nke a. Ekwere m nkwa na agaghị m ajụkwa ọzọ ka unu laa.”
18 And Moses going forth from the presence of Pharao, prayed to the Lord.
Mosis hapụrụ Fero pụọ gaa kpeere Onyenwe anyị ekpere.
19 And he made a very strong wind to blow from the west, and it took the locusts and cast them into the Red Sea: there remained not so much as one in all the coasts of Egypt.
Ngwangwa, Onyenwe anyị zitere ikuku nke si nʼebe anyanwụ na-ada bịa, nke bupụrụ igurube ndị ahụ site nʼala Ijipt, buba ha nʼOsimiri Uhie. Ọ dịkwaghị otu igurube fọdụrụ nʼala Ijipt niile.
20 And the Lord hardened Pharao’s heart, neither did he let the children of Israel go.
Ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero sie ike, o kweghị ka ụmụ Izrel gaa fee Chineke ofufe.
21 And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch out they hand towards heaven: and may there be darkness upon the land of Egypt, so thick that it may be felt.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị, “Setịpụ aka gị abụọ nʼeluigwe ka ọchịchịrị gbaa nʼala Ijipt niile.”
22 And Moses stretch forth his hand towards heaven: and there came horrible darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
Mosis setịpụrụ aka ya nʼeluigwe. Oke ọchịchịrị gbara abalị atọ nʼala Ijipt niile.
23 No man saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was: but wheresoever the children of Israel dwelt there was light.
Ndị Ijipt ahụghị ihu ibe ha. Ha ahapụghịkwa ebe obibi ha abalị atọ ahụ. Ma ụmụ Izrel nwere ìhè nʼebe niile ha bi.
24 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go sacrifice to the Lord: let your sheep only, and herds remain; let your children go with you.
Mgbe ahụ, Fero kpọrọ Mosis sị ya, “Gaanụ fee Onyenwe anyị unu ofufe. Unu na ndị inyom na ụmụ unu nwere ike ịga, ma unu ga-ahapụ igwe ehi unu na igwe anụ ụlọ unu gaa.”
25 Moses said: Thou shalt give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, to the Lord our God.
Mosis zara, “Ị ghaghị ịhapụ anyị ka anyị were ihe aja na aja nsure ọkụ, nke anyị chee nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị.
26 All the flocks shall go with us: there shall not a hoof remain of them: for they are necessary for the service of the Lord our God: especially as we know not what must be offered, till we come to the very place.
Igwe anụ ụlọ anyị ga-esoro anyị. O nweghị ihe ọ bụla anyị ga-ahapụ nʼihi na anyị ga-eji ụfọdụ nʼime ha fee Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị ofufe. Ọ bụkwa naanị mgbe anyị ruru nʼebe ahụ ka anyị nwere ike ịmata ihe anyị ga-eji fee Onyenwe anyị anyị ofufe.”
27 And the Lord hardened Pharao’s heart, and he would not let them go.
Ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero sie ike. O kweghị ka ha laa.
28 And Pharao said to Moses: Get thee from me, and beware thou see not my face any more: in what day soever thou shalt come in my sight, thou shalt die.
Fero gwara Mosis sị, “Si nʼihu m pụọ. Lezie anya hụ na ị bịaghị nʼihu m ọzọ. Ụbọchị ọbụla ị nwara bịa nʼihu m, onye nwụrụ anwụ ka ị ga-abụ.”
29 Moses answered: So shall it be as thou hast spoken, I will not see thy face any more.
Mosis zaghachiri Fero sị, “Ihe i kwuru dị mma, agaghị m abịakwa nʼihu gị ọzọ.”
