Exodus 14
1 The Lord told Moses,
Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
2 “Tell the Israelites to turn back and set up camp near Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. You are to camp beside the sea, opposite Baal-zephon.
“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 Pharaoh will conclude about the Israelites: ‘They're wandering about the country in confusion—the desert has blocked them from leaving.’
Farao yóò ronú pé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń ráre káàkiri ní ìdààmú ni àti wí pé aginjù náà ti sé wọn mọ́.
4 I will give Pharaoh a stubborn attitude so that he will chase after them to get them back. But I will gain respect through what happens to Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.” So the Israelites did as they were instructed.
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 When the king of Egypt found out that the Israelites had left in a hurry, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds about what had happened and said, “What have we done? We have let all these Israelite slaves go!”
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 So Pharaoh had his chariot made ready and set out with his army.
Ó sì di kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀, ó sì kó àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀,
7 He took 600 of his best chariots along with all the other chariots of Egypt, each with their officer-in-charge.
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 The Lord gave Pharaoh, king of Egypt, a stubborn attitude so he chased after the Israelites, who were leaving with their fists raised in triumph.
Olúwa sé ọkàn Farao ọba Ejibiti le, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí lépa àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti ń jáde lọ ní àìbẹ̀rù.
9 The Egyptians set out in pursuit—all Pharaoh's horses and chariots, horsemen and soldiers. They caught up with the Israelites while they were camped beside the sea near Pi-hahiroth, opposite 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 The Israelites looked back and saw Pharaoh and the Egyptian army approaching. They were absolutely terrified and cried out to the Lord for help.
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 They complained to Moses, “Were there no graves in Egypt that you had to bring us out here in the desert to die? What have you done to us by making us leave 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 Didn't we tell you back in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone so that we can go on being slaves to the Egyptians’? It would have been better for us to be Egyptian slaves than to die here in the desert!”
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 But Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand where you are and you will see how the Lord will save you today. The Egyptians you see right now, you will never see again!
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 The Lord is going to fight for you—you don't need to do anything.”
Olúwa yóò jà fún un yín; kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sá à mu sùúrù.”
15 The Lord told Moses, “Why are you crying out to me for help? Tell the Israelites to move 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 You are to pick up your walking stick and hold it out in your hand over the sea. Divide it so the Israelites can walk through the sea on dry ground.
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 I will give Egyptians a stubborn, hard-hearted attitude so that they will chase in after them. Then I will gain respect through what happens to Pharaoh and all his army, chariots, and 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 The Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I gain respect through Pharaoh, his chariots, and 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 The angel of God, who had been leading the Israelites, moved behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from in front of 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 so that it was positioned between the Egyptian and Israelite camps. Though the cloud was in darkness on one side, but it lit up the night on the other. No one from either camp went near the other during 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 Then Moses held out his hand over the sea, and all through the night the Lord forced the sea back with a strong east wind, and turned the bottom of the sea into dry land. So the water was 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 Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water to their right and left.
àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì la ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ kọjá nínú òkun pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ní ọ̀tún àti òsì.
23 The Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh's horses, chariots, and horsemen. They followed the Israelites into 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 But at the end of the night the Lord looked down on the Egyptian army from the pillar of fire and cloud, and he threw them into a panic.
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 He made their chariot wheels get stuck so it was hard for them to drive. The Egyptians shouted out, “Retreat! We must run from the Israelites because the Lord is fighting for them against us!”
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 Then the Lord told Moses, “Hold out your hand over the sea, so that the water will pour back over the Egyptians and their chariots and 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 So Moses held out his hand over the sea, and at dawn the sea returned to normal. As the Egyptians retreated, the Lord swept them into 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 The water poured back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the whole of Pharaoh's army that had chased after the Israelites into the sea. Not a single one of them survived.
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 But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water to their right and left.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Israẹli la òkun kọjá lórí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ni ọ̀tún àti òsì wọn.
30 The Lord saved the Israelites from the threat of the Egyptians—the Israelites saw the Egyptians lying dead on the 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 When the Israelites saw the great power that the Lord had used against the Egyptians, they were in awe of the Lord, and they trusted in him and in his servant Moses.
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.
