Exodus 14
1 Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Awo Mukama n’alagira Musa nti,
2 Speake to the children of Israel, that they returne and campe before Pi-hahiroth, betweene Migdol and the Sea, ouer against Baal-zephon: about it shall ye campe by the Sea.
“Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri bawetemu nga boolekera Pikakirosi, bakube eweema zaabwe okumpi ne Pikakirosi, wakati wa Migudooli n’ennyanja. Musiisire ku lubalama lw’ennyanja nga mwolekedde Baali Zefoni.
3 For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are tangled in the land: the wildernesse hath shut them in.
Falaawo abaana ba Isirayiri ajja kuboogerako nti, ‘Babulubuutira mu nsi yaffe, n’eddungu libazingizza.’
4 And I will harden Pharaohs heart that hee shall follow after you: so I will get mee honour vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his hoste: the Egyptians also shall knowe that I am the Lord: and they did so.
Nzija kukakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, alyoke abawondere. Naye ndyefunira ekitiibwa okuva ku bye ndikola Falaawo n’eggye lye lyonna; n’Abamisiri balitegeera nga nze Mukama.” Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakola bwe batyo.
5 Then it was told the King of Egypt, that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his seruants was turned against the people, and they sayde, Why haue we this done, and haue let Israel go out of our seruice?
Kabaka w’e Misiri bwe yategeera ng’Abayisirayiri baddukidde ddala, Falaawo n’abakungu be ne bejjusa, ne bagamba nti, “Kiki kino kye tukoze, okuleka Abayisirayiri ababadde batukolera ne bagenda?”
6 And he made ready his charets, and tooke his people with him,
Bw’atyo n’ateekateeka eggaali lye erisikibwa embalaasi, n’eggye ly’anaagenda nalyo.
7 And tooke sixe hundreth chosen charets, and all the charets of Egypt, and captaines ouer euery one of them.
Yatwala amagaali lukaaga agasingira ddala obulungi, n’agattako n’amagaali amalala gonna agaali mu Misiri, n’abalwanyi abaduumizi nga be bagavuga.
8 (For the Lord had hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he followed after the children of Israel: but the children of Israel went out with an hie hand)
Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo Kabaka w’e Misiri, n’agoberera abaana ba Isirayiri. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakwata olugendo lwabwe nga tebaliiko gwe batya.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, and all the horses and charets of Pharaoh, and his horsemen and his hoste ouertooke them camping by the Sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
Abamisiri ne babawondera: embalaasi zonna, n’amagaali gonna aga Falaawo agasikibwa embalaasi, n’abeebagadde embalaasi, n’eggye lye, ne babasanga nga basiisidde ku lubalama lw’ennyanja okumpi ne Pikakirosi, nga boolekedde Baali Zefoni.
10 And when Pharaoh drew nie, the children of Israel lift vp their eyes, and beholde, the Egyptians marched after them, and they were sore afrayde: wherefore the children of Israel cried vnto the Lord.
Falaawo bwe yasembera, abaana ba Isirayiri ne balengera Abamisiri nga babagoberera, ne batya nnyo. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne balaajaanira Mukama.
11 And they sayde vnto Moses, Hast thou brought vs to die in the wildernes, because there were no graues in Egypt? wherefore hast thou serued vs thus, to carie vs out of Egypt?
Ne bagamba Musa nti, “Mu Misiri entaana tezaaliyo, kyewava otuleeta tufiire wano mu ddungu? Lwaki watuggya mu Misiri n’ojja otuyisa bw’oti?
12 Did not wee tell thee this thing in Egypt, saying, Let vs be in rest, that we may serue the Egyptians? for it had bene better for vs to serue the Egyptians, then that wee shoulde dye in the wildernesse.
Bwe twali mu Misiri tetwakugamba nti, ‘Tuveeko, tuleke tukolere Abamisiri?’ Kubanga okukolera Abamisiri kyandibadde waddeko okusinga okufiira mu ddungu.”
13 Then Moses sayde to the people, Feare ye not, stand still, and beholde the saluation of the Lord which he will shew to you this day. For the Egyptians, whome ye haue seene this day, ye shall neuer see them againe.
Musa n’addamu abantu nti, “Temutya, munywere, mujja kulaba obulokozi Mukama bw’anaabaleetera olwa leero. Kubanga Abamisiri abo be mulaba kaakano, temuliddayo nate kubalaba emirembe gyonna.
14 The Lord shall fight for you: therefore hold you your peace.
Mukama ajja kubalwanirira. Mmwe musirike busirisi.”
15 And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Wherefore cryest thou vnto me? speake vnto the children of Israel that they go forward:
Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Lwaki okaabirira nze? Lagira abaana ba Isirayiri bakwate olugendo lwabwe.
16 And lift thou vp thy rod, and stretche out thine hand vpon the Sea and deuide it, and let the children of Israel goe on drie ground thorow the middes of the Sea.
Wanika omuggo gwo, ogolole n’omukono gwo ku nnyanja, amazzi ogaawulemu, abaana ba Isirayiri bayite wakati mu nnyanja kyokka nga batambulira ku ttaka kkalu.
17 And I, beholde, I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, that they may follow them, and I wil get me honour vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his host, vpon his charets, and vpon his horsemen.
Nange nzija kukakanyaza emitima gy’Abamisiri, bayingirire ennyanja nga babagoberera. Ndyoke nefunire ekitiibwa okusinziira ku bye nnaakola Falaawo, n’amaggye ge, n’amagaali ge, n’abeebagadde embalaasi.
18 Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I haue gotten me honour vpon Pharaoh, vpon his charets, and vpon his horsemen.
Abamisiri nabo banaategeera nga nze Mukama, nga nefunidde ekitiibwa: okusinziira ku bye nnaakola Falaawo n’amagaali ge, n’abasajja be abeebagadde embalaasi.”
19 (And the Angel of God, which went before the hoste of Israel, remoued and went behinde them: also the pillar of the cloude went from before them, and stoode behinde them,
Awo malayika wa Katonda eyali akulembera abaana ba Isirayiri n’akyuka n’abadda emabega; n’empagi ey’ekire ne yejjulula okuva mu maaso gaabwe, n’eyimirira emabega waabwe:
20 And came betweene the campe of the Egyptians and the campe of Israel: it was both a cloude and darkenes, yet gaue it light by night, so that all the night long the one came not at the other)
Bw’etyo n’ebeera wakati w’abaana ba Isirayiri n’eggye ly’Abamisiri. Ekiro, ekire ne kireeta ekizikiza ku ludda lw’Abamisiri, naye ne kireeta omuliro okumulisa oludda lw’Abayisirayiri; ekiro kyonna ne wataba ggye lisemberera linnaalyo.
21 And Moses stretched forth his hande vpon the Sea, and the Lord caused the sea to runne backe by a strong East winde all the night, and made the Sea dry land: for the waters were deuided.
Awo Musa n’agolola omukono gwe ku nnyanja; Mukama n’asindika ku nnyanja embuyaga ez’amaanyi ezaava ebuvanjuba, ne zigobawo amazzi ekiro kyonna, ne lufuuka lukalu, ng’amazzi gayawuddwamu.
22 Then the children of Israel went through the middes of the Sea vpon the drie ground, and the waters were a wall vnto them on their right hand, and on their left hand.
Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bayita wakati mu nnyanja nga batambulira ku ttaka ekkalu, ng’amazzi gakoze ekisenge ku ludda lwabwe olwa ddyo n’olwa kkono.
23 And the Egyptians pursued and went after them to the middes of the Sea, euen all Pharaohs horses, his charets, and his horsemen.
Abamisiri ne babawondera ne bayingira wakati mu nnyanja n’amagaali ga Falaawo gonna, n’embalaasi ze, n’abasajja be abeebagadde embalaasi.
24 Nowe in the morning watche, when the Lord looked vnto the hoste of the Egyptians, out of the firie and cloudie pillar, he strooke the host of the Egyptians with feare.
Awo mu makya ennyo nga tebunnalaba, Mukama n’atunuulira eggye ly’Abamisiri ng’ali mu mpagi ey’ekire n’omuliro, n’atandika okulibonyaabonya.
25 For he tooke off their charet wheeles, and they draue them with much a doe: so that the Egyptians euery one sayd, I wil flee from the face of Israel: for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
Amagaali gaabwe yagamaamulako zinnamuziga, ne gabakaluubirira okuvuga. Abamisiri n’okugamba ne bagamba nti, “Leka Abayisirayiri tubadduke! Kubanga Mukama alwanyisa Misiri ng’abalwanirira.”
26 Then the Lord sayde to Moses, Stretche thine hand vpon the Sea, that the waters may returne vpon the Egyptians, vpon their charets and vpon their horsemen.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo ku nnyanja, amazzi gakomewo gaggweere ku Bamisiri, ne ku magaali gaabwe, ne ku basajja baabwe abeebagadde embalaasi.”
27 Then Moses stretched forth his hand vpon the Sea, and the Sea returned to his force early in the morning, and the Egyptians fled against it: but the Lord ouerthrew the Egyptians in the mids of the Sea.
Bw’atyo Musa n’agololera ennyanja omukono gwe, obudde bwe bwakya n’ekomawo n’amaanyi, Abamisiri ne bagidduka nga balaba ejja; Mukama, Abamisiri n’abasaanyaawo wakati mu nnyanja.
28 So the water returned and couered the charets and the horsemen, euen all the hoste of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them: there remained not one of them.
Amazzi ne gakomawo ne gasaanikira amagaali n’abeebagadde embalaasi, n’eggye lya Falaawo lyonna eryali ligoberedde Abayisirayiri mu nnyanja. Tewaali n’omu ku bo eyawona.
29 But the children of Israel walked vpon dry land thorowe the middes of the Sea, and the waters were a wall vnto them on their right hande, and on their left.
Naye abaana ba Isirayiri bo nga batambulira ku ttaka kkalu wakati mu nnyanja, amazzi nga gakoze ekisenge ku ludda lwabwe olwa ddyo ne ku lwa kkono.
30 Thus the Lord saued Israel the same day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel sawe the Egyptians dead vpon the Sea banke.
Bwe kityo ku lunaku olwo Abayisirayiri Mukama n’abawonya Abamisiri. Abayisirayiri ne balaba Abamisiri ku lubalama lw’ennyanja nga bafudde.
31 And Israel saw the mightie power, which the Lord shewed vpon the Egyptians: so the people feared the Lord, and beleeued the Lord, and his seruant Moses.
Abayisirayiri ne balaba obuyinza obunene ennyo Mukama bwe yalaga ng’akola ku Bamisiri: abantu ne batya Mukama, ne bakkiriza Mukama n’omuweereza we Musa.
