Exodus 5
1 Then afterwarde Moses and Aaron went and said to Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may celebrate a feast vnto me in the wildernesse.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Mose àti Aaroni tọ Farao lọ, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ, ‘Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn kí ó lè ṣe àjọ mi ní ijù.’”
2 And Pharaoh saide, Who is the Lord, that I should heare his voyce, and let Israel go? I knowe not the Lord, neither will I let Israel goe.
Farao dáhùn wí pé, “Ta ni Olúwa, tí èmi yóò fi gbọ́rọ̀ sí i lẹ́nu, tí èmi yóò fi jẹ́ kí Israẹli ó lọ? Èmi kò mọ Olúwa, èmi kò sì ní jẹ́ kí Israẹli ó lọ.”
3 And they saide, We worship the God of the Ebrewes: we pray thee, let vs goe three daies iourney in the desert, and sacrifice vnto the Lord our God, least he bring vpon vs the pestilence or sword.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni wọ́n wí pé, “Ọlọ́run àwọn Heberu tí pàdé wa. Ní ìsinsin yìí, jẹ́ kí a lọ ní ìrìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta sínú aginjù láti rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, kí Ó má ba á fi àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn tàbí idà bá wa jà.”
4 Then saide the King of Egypt vnto them, Moses and Aaron, why cause ye the people to cease from their workes? get you to your burdens.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọba Ejibiti sọ wí pé, “Mose àti Aaroni, èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi mú àwọn ènìyàn kúrò lẹ́nu iṣẹ́ wọn? Ẹ padà sẹ́nu iṣẹ́ yín.”
5 Pharaoh saide furthermore, Behold, much people is nowe in the lande, and ye make them leaue their burdens.
Nígbà náà ni Farao sọ pé, “Ẹ wò ó àwọn ènìyàn náà ti pọ̀ sí ì nílẹ̀ yìí ní ìsinsin yìí, ẹ̀yin sì ń dá wọn dúró láti máa bá iṣẹ́ lọ.”
6 Therefore Pharaoh gaue commandement the same day vnto the taskemasters of the people, and to their officers, saying,
Ní ọjọ́ yìí kan náà ni Farao pàṣẹ fún àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ àti àwọn ti ń ṣe alábojútó iṣẹ́ lórí àwọn ènìyàn.
7 Ye shall giue the people no more strawe, to make bricke (as in time past) but let them goe and gather them strawe them selues:
“Ẹ̀yin kò ní láti pèsè koríko gbígbẹ fún bíríkì sísun mọ́ fún àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí; ẹ jẹ́ kí wọn máa wá koríko gbígbẹ fún ara wọn.
8 Notwithstanding lay vpon them the nober of bricke, which they made in time past, diminish nothing thereof: for they be idle, therefore they crie, saying, Let vs go to offer sacrifice vnto our God.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ jẹ́ kí wọn ó ṣe iye bíríkì kan náà bí ì ti àtẹ̀yìnwá, kí ẹ má ṣe dín iye rẹ̀ kú. Ọ̀lẹ ni wọ́n, ìwà ọ̀lẹ yìí náà ló mú wọn pariwo pé, ‘Ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ, kí a sì rú ẹbọ sí Ọlọ́run wa.’
9 Lay more worke vpon the men, and cause them to do it, and let the not regard vaine words.
Ẹ mú iṣẹ́ náà le fún wọn, kí wọn bá a le è tẹramọ́ iṣẹ́ wọn, ẹ má fi ààyè gba irọ́ wọn.”
10 Then went the taskemasters of the people and their officers out, and tolde the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will giue you no more strawe.
Ní ìgbà náà ni àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ àti àwọn tí ń ṣe alábojútó iṣẹ́ jáde tọ̀ wọ́n lọ láti sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Farao sọ, ‘Èmi kò ní fún un yín ni koríko gbígbẹ mọ́.
11 Goe your selues, get you strawe where yee can finde it, yet shall nothing of your labour bee diminished.
Ẹ lọ wá koríko gbígbẹ ni ibi tí ẹ bá ti lè rí i, ṣùgbọ́n iṣẹ́ yín kí yóò dínkù.’”
12 Then were the people scattered abroade throughout all the land of Egypt, for to gather stubble in steade of strawe.
Gbogbo wọn sí fọ́n káàkiri ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti láti sa ìdì koríko tí wọn yóò lò bí ì koríko gbígbẹ fún sísun bíríkì.
13 And the taskemasters hasted them, saying, Finish your dayes worke euery dayes taske, as ye did when ye had strawe.
Àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ sì ń ni wọ́n lára, wọ́n wí pé, “Ẹ parí iṣẹ́ tí ẹ ni láti ṣe fún ọjọ́ kan bí ìgbà ti a ń fún un yin ní koríko gbígbẹ.”
14 And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaohs taskemasters had set ouer them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore haue ye not fulfilled your taske in making bricke yesterday and to daye, as in times past?
Àwọn alábojútó iṣẹ́ tí àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ Farao yàn lára ọmọ Israẹli ni wọn ń lù, tí wọn sì ń béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò ṣe iye bíríkì ti ẹ̀yin ń ṣe ní àná ní òní bí i tí àtẹ̀yìnwá?”
15 Then the officers of the children of Israel came, and cryed vnto Pharaoh, saying, Wherfore dealest thou thus with thy seruants?
Nígbà náà ni àwọn alábojútó iṣẹ́ tí a yàn lára àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tọ Farao lọ láti lọ bẹ̀bẹ̀ pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ọwọ́ líle mú àwa ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ báyìí?
16 There is no strawe giuen to thy seruantes, and they say vnto vs, Make bricke: and loe, thy seruants are beaten, and thy people is blamed.
Wọn kò fún àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ ni koríko gbígbẹ, síbẹ̀ wọn sọ fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ ṣe bíríkì!’ Wọ́n na àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀bi náà wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.”
17 But he said, Ye are to much idle: therfore ye say, Let vs goe to offer sacrifice to the Lord.
Farao sí dáhùn wí pé, “Ọ̀lẹ ni yín, ọ̀lẹ! Èyí ni ó mú kí ẹ̀yin máa sọ ní ìgbà gbogbo pé, ‘Ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ, kí a sì rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.’
18 Goe therefore nowe and worke: for there shall no strawe be giuen you, yet shall yee deliuer the whole tale of bricke.
Nísinsin yìí ẹ padà lọ sí ẹnu iṣẹ́ yín, a kò ní fún un yín ni koríko gbígbẹ, síbẹ̀ ẹ gbọdọ̀ ṣe iye bíríkì tí ó yẹ kí ẹ ṣe.”
19 Then the officers of the children of Israel sawe them selues in an euill case, because it was saide, Ye shall diminish nothing of your bricke, nor of euery dayes taske.
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí ó jẹ́ alábojútó iṣẹ́ mọ̀ dájú wí pé àwọn ti wà nínú wàhálà ńlá ní ìgbà tí a sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ kò ní láti dín iye bíríkì tí ẹ ń ṣe ni ojoojúmọ́ kù.”
20 And they met Moses and Aaron, which stood in their way as they came out from Pharaoh,
Ní ìgbà tí wọ́n kúrò ni ọ̀dọ̀ Farao wọ́n rí Mose àti Aaroni tí ó dúró láti pàdé wọn.
21 To whom they said, The Lord looke vpon you and iudge: for yee haue made our sauour to stinke before Pharaoh and before his seruants, in that ye haue put a sword in their hand to slay vs.
Wọn sì wí pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó wò yín, kí ó sì ṣe ìdájọ́! Ẹ̀yin ti mú wa dàbí òórùn búburú fún Farao àti àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ rẹ̀, ẹ sì ti fún wọn ni idà láti fi pa wá.”
22 Wherefore Moses returned to the Lord, and saide, Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou thus sent me?
Mose padà tọ Olúwa lọ, ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa, èéṣe tí ìwọ fi mú ìyọnu wá sí orí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí? Ṣe torí èyí ni ìwọ fi rán mi?
23 For since I came to Pharaoh to speake in thy Name, he hath vexed this people, and yet thou hast not deliuered thy people.
Láti ìgbà ti mo ti tọ Farao lọ láti bá a sọ̀rọ̀ ni orúkọ rẹ ni ó ti mú ìyọnu wá sí orí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò sì gba àwọn ènìyàn rẹ sílẹ̀ rárá.”
