< Exodus 18 >
1 When Iethro the Priest of Midian Moses father in lawe heard all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and howe the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt,
Ni Jetro a padi dagiti Midian, a katugangan a lalaki ni Moises ket nangngegna amin nga inaramid ti Dios para kenni Moises ken para iti Israel a tattaona. Nangngegna nga inruar ni Yahweh ti Israel manipud iti Egipto.
2 Then Iethro the father in lawe of Moses, tooke Zipporah Moses wife, (after he had sent her away)
Inkuyog ni Jetro, a katugangan ni Moises, ni Sipora nga asawa ni Moises, kalpasan nga imbaonna isuna idiay balayda,
3 And her two sonnes, (whereof the one was called Gershom: for he sayd, I haue bene an aliant in a strange land:
ken dagiti dua nga annakna a lallaki; ti nagan ti maysa ket Gersom, ta kinuna ni Moises, “Nagbalinak a ganggannaet iti sabali a daga.”
4 And the name of the other was Eliezer: for the God of my father, said he, was mine helpe, and deliuered me from the sword of Pharaoh)
Ti nagan ti maysa ket Eliezer, ta kinuna ni Moises, “Ti Dios dagiti kapuonak ti katulongak. Inispalnak manipud iti kampilan ni Faraon.”
5 And Iethro Moses father in law came with his two sonnes, and his wife vnto Moses into the wildernes, where he camped by ye mout of God.
Napan kenni Moises ni Jetro a katuganganna, kaduana dagiti putot a lallaki ni Moises ken ti asawana idiay let-ang a nagkampoanna idiay bantay ti Dios.
6 And he said to Moses, I thy father in law Iethro am come to thee, and thy wife and her two sonnes with her.
Kinunana kenni Moises, “Siak, ti katugangam a ni Jetro, ket umayak kenka a kaduak ti asawam ken dagiti dua a putotmo a lallaki.”
7 And Moses went out to meete his father in law, and did obeisance and kissed him, and eche asked other of his welfare: and they came into the tent.
Rimmuar ni Moises a nangsabat iti katuganganna, nagdumog ken inagkanna isuna. Nagkinnomustada maipanggep iti kasasaad ti tunggal maysa ket sada simrek iti tolda.
8 Then Moses told his father in law all that the Lord had done vnto Pharaoh, and to the Egyptians for Israels sake, and all the trauaile that had come vnto them by the way, and howe the Lord deliuered them.
Imbaga ni Moises iti katuganganna ti amin nga inaramid ni Yahweh kenni Faraon ken kadagiti Egipcio para iti pagimbagan ti Israel, maipanggep kadagiti amin a rigrigat a napadtengda kabayatan ti kaaddada iti dalan, ken no kasano nga inispal ida ni Yahweh.
9 And Iethro reioyced at all the goodnesse, which the Lord had shewed to Israel, and because he had deliuered them out of the hande of the Egyptians.
Nagrag-o ni Jetro iti amin a nasayaat nga inaramid ni Yahweh iti Israel, iti panangispalna kadakuada manipud iti ima dagiti Egipcio.
10 Therfore Iethro sayd, Blessed be the Lord who hath deliuered you out of the hande of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh: who hath also deliuered the people from vnder the hand of the Egyptians.
Kinuna ni Jetro, “Maidaydayaw koma ni Yahweh, ta inispalnakayo manipud iti ima dagiti Egipcio ken iti ima ni Faraon, ken winayawayaanna dagiti tattao manipud iti panangtengngelda.
11 Now I know that the Lord is greater then all the gods: for as they haue dealt proudly with them, so are they recompensed.
Ita, ammok a nain-indaklan ni Yahweh ngem dagiti amin a didiosen, gapu ta idi trinato dagiti Egipcio dagiti Israelita a sitatangsit, inispal ti Dios dagiti tattaona.”
12 Then Iethro Moses father in lawe tooke burnt offerings and sacrifices to offer vnto God. And Aaron and all the Elders of Israel came to eat bread with Moses father in law before God.
Nangiyeg ni Jetro, a katugangan ni Moises iti daton a maipuor amin ken datdaton a maipaay iti Dios. Immay ni Aaron ken dagiti amin a panglakayen ti Israel a mangan iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a kaduada ti katugangan ni Moises.
13 Now on the morow, when Moses sate to iudge the people, the people stoode about Moses from morning vnto euen.
Iti simmaruno nga aldaw, nagtugaw ni Moises tapno mangukom kadagiti tattao. Nagtakder dagiti tattao iti aglawlawna manipud bigat agingga iti rabii.
14 And when Moses father in law saw all that he did to the people, he sayde, What is this that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thy selfe alone, and all the people stande about thee from morning vnto euen?
Idi nakita ti katugangan ni Moises amin nga inaramidna para kadagiti tattao, kinunana, “Ania daytoy nga ar-aramidem kadagiti tattao? Apay nga agtugtugawka nga agmaymaysa ket agtaktakder iti aglawlawmo dagiti amin a tattao manipud iti bigat agingga iti rabii?”
15 And Moses sayd vnto his father in law, Because the people come vnto me to seeke God.
Kinuna ni Moises iti katuganganna, “Umay kaniak dagiti tattao a dumawat iti panangiwanwan ti Dios.
16 When they haue a matter, they come vnto me, and I iudge betweene one and another, and declare the ordinances of God, and his lawes.
No addaanda iti saan a pagkikinnaawatan, umayda kaniak. Mangngeddengak iti nagbaetan dagiti tattao, ken isursurok kadakuada ti maipanggep kadagiti alagaden ken linteg ti Dios.”
17 But Moses father in law said vnto him, The thing which thou doest, is not well.
Kinuna ti katugangan ni Moises kenkuana, “Saan a nasayaat ti ar-aramidem.
18 Thou both weariest thy selfe greatly, and this people that is with thee: for the thing is too heauie for thee: thou art not able to doe it thy selfe alone.
Awan dua-dua a maibusto ti pigsam ken dagiti tattao nga umay kenka, gapu ta nadagsen unay a trabaho daytoy para kenka. Saanmo a maaramid daytoy a siksika.
19 Heare nowe my voyce, (I will giue thee counsell, and God shalbe with thee) be thou for the people to Godwarde, and report thou the causes vnto God,
Dinggennak. Balakadanka ket makikaaddanto ti Dios kenka gapu ta sika ti mangibagbagi kadagiti tattao ti Dios, ken sika ti mangiyum-uman kenkuana kadagiti saanda a pagkikinnaawatan.
20 And admonish them of the ordinances, and of the lawes, and shew them the way, wherein they must walke, and the worke that they must do.
Masapul nga isurom kadakuada dagiti alagaden ken lintegna. Masapul nga ipakitam kadakuada ti dalan a surotenda iti panagbiagda ken ti trabaho nga aramidenda.
21 Moreouer, prouide thou among al the people men of courage, fearing God, men dealing truely, hating couetousnesse: and appoynt such ouer them to be rulers ouer thousandes, rulers ouer hundreths, rulers ouer fifties, and rulers ouer tennes.
Maysa pay, nasken a mangpilika kadagiti makabael a lallaki manipud kadagiti amin a tattao, lallaki a mangraraem iti Dios, lallaki a napudno ken manggurgura iti saan a nalinteg a panangtagikua. Masapul a pagturayem ida kadagiti tattao, nga agbalin a mangidaulo a mangimaton kadagiti sagsasangaribu, sagsasangagasut, saglilimapulo ken sagsasangapulo.
22 And let them iudge the people at all seasons: but euery great matter let them bring vnto thee, and let them iudge all small causes: so shall it be easier for thee, when they shall beare the burden with thee.
Isuda ti mangukom kadagiti tattao iti amin a kadawyan a parikut, ngem iyegda kenka dagiti naririgat a parikut. No maipapan kadagiti amin a babassit a parikut, mabalinda nga ukomen dagidiay nga is-isuda. Iti dayta a wagas, nalaklakanto para kenka, ken makipag-baklaydanto kenka iti dadagsen.
23 If thou do this thing, (and God so command thee) both thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go quietly to their place.
No aramidem daytoy, ken no isu't bilin ti Dios nga aramidem, ket maibturamto, ken makaawidto dagiti amin a tattao a napnapnek.”
24 So Moses obeyed the voyce of his father in law, and did all that he had sayd:
Dimngeg ngarud ni Moises kadagiti sao ti katuganganna a lalaki ken inaramidna ti amin nga imbaga daytoy.
25 And Moses chose men of courage out of all Israel, and made them heads ouer the people, rulers ouer thousandes, rulers ouer hundreths, rulers ouer fifties, and rulers ouer tennes.
Nangpili ni Moises kadagiti makabael a lallaki manipud iti amin nga Israel ket pinagbalinna ida a mangidadaulo kadagiti amin a tattao, mangidadaulo kadagiti sagsasangaribu, sagsasangagasut, saglilimapulo, ken sagsasangapulo.
26 And they iudged the people at all seasons, but they brought the hard causes vnto Moses: for they iudged all small matters themselues.
Inukomda dagiti tattao kadagiti gagangay a pasamak. Inyegda kenni Moises dagiti naririgat a parikut, ngem rinisutda nga is-isuda dagiti amin a babassit a parikut.
27 Afterward Moses let his father in law depart, and he went into his countrey.
Kalpasanna, pinalubosan ni Moises a pumanaw ti katuganganna a lalaki, ket nagsubli ni Jetro iti bukodna a daga.
