Exodus 7
1 The Lord told Moses, “Look, I will make you seem like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga ac oru kom in oana God nu sel tokosra, ac Aaron, tamulel lom, ac fah kaskas nu sel oana mwet palu se lom.
2 You are to repeat everything that I tell you to say, and your brother Aaron must repeat it to Pharaoh so that he will let the Israelites leave his country.
Fahk nu sel Aaron ma nukewa nga sapkin nu sum uh, ac el ac fah fahk nu sel tokosra elan lela mwet Israel in som liki facl sel uh.
3 But I will give Pharaoh a stubborn attitude, and though I will perform many signs and wonders in Egypt, he won't listen to you.
Tusruktu nga ac akupaye nunkal tokosra, ac finne pus mwe aksangeng nga orala in acn Egypt,
4 Then I will attack Egypt, imposing heavy punishments on them, and I will lead out by their tribes my people the Israelites.
el ac fah tiana lohng kom. Na nga fah sang mwe kai na upa nu fin acn Egypt ac kolla mwet in sruf nukewa luk liki facl sac.
5 In this way the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord—when I take action against Egypt and lead the Israelites out of the country.”
Na mwet Egypt elos tufah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD, ke pacl se nga ac srukak pouk lainulos, ac kolla mwet Israel liki facl selos.”
6 Moses and Aaron did exactly as the Lord had ordered.
Moses ac Aaron oru oana God El sapkin.
7 Moses was eighty and Aaron was eighty-three when they went and spoke to Pharaoh.
Ke pacl se eltal kaskas nu sel tokosra, Moses el yac oalngoul matwal, ac Aaron el yac oalngoul tolu.
8 The Lord told Moses and Aaron,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,
9 “When Pharaoh asks you, ‘Why don't you perform a miracle, then?’ tell Aaron, ‘Take your walking stick and throw it down in front of Pharaoh,’ and it will turn into a snake.”
“Tokosra el fin sap komtal in oru sie mwenmen in akpwayeye kas lomtal uh, fahk nu sel Aaron elan srukak sikal lal ac sisya nu infohk uh ye mutal tokosra, na ac fah ekla nu ke wet soko.”
10 Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did what the Lord had ordered. Aaron threw down his staff in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it turned into a snake.
Ouinge Moses ac Aaron som nu yorol tokosra, ac oru oana LEUM GOD El sap. Aaron el sisya sikal lal nu ye mutal tokosra ac mwet fulat lal, ac sikal soko ah ekla nu ke wet soko.
11 But Pharaoh called in wise men and sorcerers, and these Egyptian magicians did the same thing using their magic arts.
Na tokosra el pangonma mwet lalmwetmet ac mwet orek inutnut lal, ac elos oru oapana.
12 Each of them threw down their walking sticks and they also turned into snakes, but Aaron's walking stick swallowed up all their walking sticks.
Elos sisya sikal lalos ah, ac sikal lalos uh ekla wet pac. Tusruktu sikal lal Aaron ah okomla sikal lalos ah.
13 But Pharaoh had a hard, stubborn attitude, and he wouldn't listen to them, as the Lord had predicted.
Ne ouinge, nunak lal tokosra srakna upa, ac el tiana lohngol Moses ac Aaron, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk.
14 The Lord said to Moses, “Pharaoh has a stubborn attitude—he's refusing to let the people go.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Arulana upa nunkal tokosra, ac el tiana lela mwet ah in som.
15 So tomorrow morning go to Pharaoh as he walks down to the river. Wait to meet him on the bank of the Nile. Take with you the walking stick that turned into a snake.
Ouinge fahla ac sonol lututang ke el ac tufokla nu ke Infacl Nile uh. Us sikal soko ma tuh ekla nu ke wet soko ah, ac soanel pe infacl ah.
16 Tell him: The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you, ‘Let my people go, so that they can worship me in the desert. But you have not listened up until now.
Na kom fahk nu sel tokosra, ‘LEUM GOD lun mwet Hebrew El supweyume in fahkot nu sum kom in fuhlela mwet lal ah in som, tuh elos in ku in alu nu sel in acn mwesis. Tuh pa kom tiana akos.
17 This is what the Lord is now telling you: This is how you will know that I am the Lord.’” “Watch! Using the walking stick I'm holding, I'm going to hit the water of the Nile, and it will turn to blood.
Inge, Tokosra, LEUM GOD El fahk mu kom ac fah etu lah su El uh ke ma El ac oru. Liye, nga ac sringilya fin kof uh ke sikal soko inge, na kof uh ac fah ekla nu ke srah.
18 The fish in the Nile will die, the river will smell, and the Egyptians won't be able to drink any of its water.”
Ik infacl ah ac fah misa, ac infacl uh ac fah arulana pusrosrak, oru mwet Egypt ac fah tia ku in nim kof kac.’”
19 The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your walking stick in your hand and hold it out over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers and canals and ponds and pools, so that they will turn to blood. There will be blood through all of Egypt, even in containers made of wood and stone.’”
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Fahkang nu sel Aaron elan us sikal lal ah ac kolak ac asroela nu fin infacl nukewa, inyoa ac inlulu nukewa in acn Egypt. Kof uh ac fah ekla nu ke srah, na ac fah oasr srah yen nukewa, finne luin tup sak ac mwe neinyuk kof ma orek ke eot.”
20 Moses and Aaron did exactly as the Lord had ordered. While Pharaoh and all his officials watched, Aaron lifted up his walking stick and hit the water of the Nile. Immediately the whole river turned to blood!
Na Moses ac Aaron oru oana LEUM GOD El sapkakin. Ye mutun tokosra ac mwet fulat lal, Aaron el kolak sikal lal ac sringilya kof infacl ah, ac kof loac ekla nu ke srah.
21 The fish in the Nile died, and the river smelled so awful that the Egyptians could not drink its water. There was blood through all of Egypt!
Ik infacl ah misa, ac foul infacl uh arulana pusrosrak, oru mwet Egypt tiana ku in nim kof kac. Oasr srah yen nukewa in Egypt.
22 But the Egyptian magicians did the same thing using their magic arts. Pharaoh maintained his stubborn attitude and he wouldn't listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had predicted.
Na mwet inutnut lal tokosra orala mwenmen lalos ac sikyak oapana, ac nankal tokosra srakna upa. Oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh fahk, tokosra el tiana lohngol Moses ac Aaron.
23 Pharaoh went back to his palace and didn't pay any attention to what had happened.
El folokla nu inkul fulat sel, ac tiana lohang nu ke ma sikyak inge.
24 All the Egyptians dug alongside the Nile because they couldn't drink its water.
Mwet Egypt nukewa pikin pe infacl ah in suk kof in nimnim mweyen elos tia ku in nim kof ke infacl ah.
25 Seven days went by after the Lord hit the Nile.
Len itkosr somla tukun LEUM GOD El sringilya infacl ah.
