Exodus 2
1 It was around this time that a man from the tribe of Levi married a woman, also a Levite.
At isang lalake sa lipi ni Levi ay yumaon, at nagasawa sa isang anak na babae ng lipi ni Levi.
2 She became pregnant and had a son. She saw he was a lovely baby, and she hid him for three months.
At ang babae ay naglihi, at nanganak ng isang lalake: at nang kaniyang makita na maganda, ay kaniyang itinagong tatlong buwan.
3 But when she couldn't hide him anymore, she got a papyrus basket and covered it with tar and pitch. Then she put her baby in the basket and placed it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile.
At nang hindi na niya maitatagong malaon ay ikinuha niya ng isang takbang yantok, at pinahiran niya ng betun at ng sahing; at kaniyang isinilid ang bata roon, at inilagay sa katalahiban sa tabi ng ilog.
4 His sister waited some distance away, keeping an eye on him.
At tumayo sa malayo ang kaniyang kapatid na babae, upang maalaman ang mangyayari sa bata.
5 Then Pharaoh's daughter arrived to bathe in the Nile. Her ladies-in-waiting were walking along the bank of the river. When she saw the basket among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it and bring it to her.
At ang anak na babae ni Faraon ay lumusong upang maligo sa ilog; at nagsipaglakad ang kaniyang mga abay sa tabi ng ilog; at kaniyang nakita ang takba sa katalahiban, at ipinakuha sa kaniyang abay.
6 When she opened it she saw the baby boy. He was crying and she felt sorry for him. “This must be one of the Hebrew boys,” she said.
At kaniyang binuksan, at nakita niya ang bata: at narito, ang sanggol ay umiyak. At kaniyang kinaawaan at sinabi, Ito'y isa sa mga anak ng mga Hebreo.
7 His sister asked Pharaoh's daughter, “Would you like me to go and find one of the Hebrew women to nurse him for you?”
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng kaniyang kapatid na babae sa anak ni Faraon, Yayaon ba ako at itatawag kita ng isang sisiwa sa mga babaing Hebrea, na makapagalaga sa iyo ng batang ito?
8 “Yes, go and do that,” she replied. So the girl went and called the baby's mother to come.
At sinabi sa kaniya ng anak ni Faraon, Yumaon ka. At ang dalaga ay yumaon, at tinawag ang ina ng bata.
9 “Take this baby boy and nurse him for me,” she told his mother. “I will pay you myself.” So his mother took him home and nursed him.
At sinabi ng anak ni Faraon, sa kaniya, Dalhin mo ang batang ito, at alagaan mo sa akin, at bibigyan kita ng iyong kaupahan. At kinuha ng babae ang bata, at inalagaan.
10 When the boy was older she took him to Pharaoh's daughter, who adopted him as her son. She called him Moses, because she said, “I pulled him out of the water.”
At ang bata ay lumaki, at kaniyang dinala sa anak ni Faraon, at siya'y kaniyang inaring anak. At kaniyang pinanganlang Moises, at sinabi, Sapagka't aking sinagip siya sa tubig.
11 Later, when Moses had grown up, he went to visit his people, the Hebrews. He saw them doing hard labor. He also saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his own people.
At nangyari nang mga araw na yaon, ng malaki na si Moises, na kaniyang nilabas ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at minasdan ang atang sa kanila: at kaniyang nakita ang isang Egipcio, na nananakit ng isang Hebreo, na isa sa kaniyang mga kapatid.
12 He looked all around to make sure no one was watching, and then he killed the Egyptian and buried his body in the sand.
At siya'y nagmasid sa magkabikabilang dako, at nang siya'y walang makitang tao, ay kaniyang pinatay ang Egipcio at kaniyang tinabunan sa buhanginan.
13 The following day he went back and he saw two Hebrews fighting with each other. He said to the one at fault, “Why are you beating one of your own people?”
At siya'y lumabas ng ikalawang araw, at, narito, na may dalawang lalaking Hebreo, na nagbababag: at kaniyang sinabi roon sa umaapi, Bakit mo sinasaktan ang iyong kasama?
14 “Who put you in charge to judge us?” the man replied. “Are you going to kill me like you did the Egyptian?” Moses became frightened at this, and said to himself, “People know what I've done!”
At sinabi niya, Sinong naglagay sa iyong pangulo at hukom sa amin? Iniisip mo bang patayin ako, na gaya ng pagpatay mo sa Egipcio? At natakot si Moises, at nagsabi, Tunay na ang bagay na yaon ay nahayag.
15 When Pharaoh found out, he tried to have Moses killed, but Moses ran away from Pharaoh and went to live in Midian. One day as he was sitting by a well,
Nang mabalitaan nga ni Faraon ang bagay na ito, ay minithi niyang patayin si Moises. Datapuwa't si Moises ay tumakas sa harapan ni Faraon, at tumahan sa lupain ng Madian: at siya'y umupo sa tabi ng isang balon.
16 and the Midianite priest's seven daughters came to fetch water to fill up the troughs so their father's flock could drink.
Ang saserdote nga sa Madian ay may pitong anak na babae: at sila'y naparoon at umigib ng tubig, at kanilang pinuno ang mga inuman upang painumin ang kawan ng kanilang ama.
17 Some shepherds arrived and chased them off, but Moses intervened and rescued them, and watered their flock.
At ang mga pastor ay dumating, at sila'y pinalayas: datapuwa't si Moises ay tumayo, at sila'y tinulungan, at pinainom ang kanilang kawan.
18 When they got home, their father Reuel asked them, “How did you get back so quickly today?”
At nang sila'y dumating kay Raquel na kanilang ama, ay sinabi niya, Bakit kayo tumindig na madali ngayon?
19 “An Egyptian rescued us from some shepherds who attacked us,” they replied. “Then he even fetched water for us so the flock could drink.”
At kanilang sinabi, Ipinagsanggalang kami ng isang Egipcio sa kamay ng mga pastor, at saka iniigib pa niya kami ng tubig, at pinainom ang kawan.
20 “So where is he?” Reuel asked his daughter. “You didn't just leave him there, did you? Go and invite him to eat with us!”
At kaniyang sinabi sa mga anak niya, At saan naroon siya? bakit ninyo iniwan ang lalaking yaon? tawagin ninyo siya upang makakain ng tinapay.
21 Moses agreed to stay with the man, who arranged for his daughter Zipporah to marry Moses.
At si Moises ay natuwa na makisuno sa lalaking yaon: at kaniyang pinapag-asawa kay Moises si Zephora na kaniyang anak.
22 She had a son, and Moses named him Gershom, for he said, “I'm an exile living in a foreign country.”
At nanganak ng isang lalake, at kaniyang pinanganlan ng Gersom; sapagka't kaniyang sinabi, Ako'y nakipamayan sa ibang bayan.
23 Years later, the king of Egypt died. But the Israelites were still groaning under their hard labor. Their cries for help because of their hardship reached God.
At nangyari pagkaraan ng maraming araw na ang hari sa Egipto ay namatay; at ang mga anak ni Israel ay nagbuntong hininga dahil sa pagkaalipin, at sila'y dumaing at ang kanilang daing ay umabot sa Dios dahil sa pagkaalipin.
24 God heard their groans, and recalled his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
At dininig ng Dios ang kanilang hibik, at naalaala ng Dios ang kaniyang tipan kay Abraham, kay Isaac, at kay Jacob,
25 God also looked sympathetically on the Israelites, and was concerned for them.
At nilingap ng Dios ang mga anak ni Israel, at sila'y kinilala ng Dios.
