< Exodus 8 >

1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Ukamuwuze Farao kuti, Lolani anthu anga kuti apite, akandipembedze.
2 And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
Ndipo ngati simulola kuti apite Ine ndidzalanga dziko lonse la Igupto polidzaza ndi achule.
3 And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, and they shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy sleeping-chamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and among thy people, and into thy ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs;
Mtsinje wa Nailo udzadzaza ndi achule. Achulewo adzatuluka ndi kukalowa mʼnyumba yaufumu, ku chipinda chogona ndi pa bedi lako, mʼnyumba za nduna zako ndi pa anthu ako ndi mophikira buledi ndiponso mopangira bulediyo.
4 And upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants, shall the frogs come up.
Achulewo adzakulumphira iwe ndi anthu ako ndiponso nduna zako.”
5 And the Lord said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand with thy staff over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause the frogs to come up over the land of Egypt.
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Uza Aaroni kuti, ‘Loza ndodo yako ku mitsinje, ku ngalande ndi ku zithaphwi ndipo pakhale achule pa dziko lonse la Igupto.’”
6 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
Kotero Aaroni analoza dzanja lake pa madzi a ku Igupto, ndipo achule anatuluka nadzaza dziko lonse la Igupto.
7 And the magicians did so with their secret arts, and brought up the frogs over the land of Egypt.
Koma amatsenga anachita zinthu zomwezo mʼmatsenga awo. Iwonso anatulutsa achule mʼdziko lonse la Igupto.
8 Then did Pharaoh call for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat the Lord, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice unto the Lord.
Kenaka, Farao anayitanitsa Mose ndi Aaroni ndipo anati, “Pemphera kwa Yehova kuti achulewa achoke kwa ine ndi anthu anga, ndipo ine ndidzalola kuti anthu anu apite kukapereka nsembe kwa Yehova.”
9 And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Arrogate thyself glory over me: for what time shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and from thy houses, that they may remain in the river only?
Mose anati kwa Farao, “Inu mungonditchulira nthawi imene mukufuna kuti ndikupempherereni, nduna zanu pamodzi ndi anthu anu kuti achule achoke mʼnyumba zanu ndi kuti atsale okhawo ali mu mtsinje wa Nailo.”
10 And he said, For tomorrow; and he said, Be it according to thy word; in order that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the Lord our God.
Farao anati, “Mawa.” Mose anamuyankha kuti, “Chabwino zidzakhala monga mwaneneramu, kuti mudzadziwe kuti palibe wina wofanana ndi Yehova Mulungu wathu.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; only in the river shall they remain.
Achule adzachoka mʼnyumba yanu, mʼnyumba za nduna zanu pamodzi ndi za anthu anu. Koma adzatsala mu mtsinje wa Nailo basi.”
12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried unto the Lord on account of the frogs which he had inflicted on Pharaoh.
Mose ndi Aaroni anachoka, ndipo Mose anapemphera kwa Yehova kuti achotse achule amene anatumiza kwa Farao.
13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
Ndipo Yehova anachita zomwe Mose anapempha. Achule amene anali mʼnyumba, mʼmabwalo ndi mʼminda anafa
14 And they gathered them together in many heaps; and the land stank.
Aigupto anawunjika achulewo milumilu ndipo dziko linanunkha.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had spoken.
Koma Farao ataona kuti zinthu zinayambanso kukhala bwino, anawumitsanso mtima wake ndipo sanamverenso mawu a Mose ndi Aaroni, monga momwe Yehova ananenera.
16 And the Lord said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy staff, and smite the dust of the earth, and it shall become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Uza Aaroni kuti akweze ndodo yake ndi kumenya fumbi la pa nthaka, ndipo fumbilo lidzasanduka nsabwe pa dziko lonse la Igupto.”
17 And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff, and smote the dust of the earth, and the lice were thus on man, and on beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
Iwo anachita momwemo, ndipo pamene Aaroni anakweza ndodo yake ndi kumenya fumbi, nsabwe zinafika pa munthu aliyense ndi pa ziweto. Fumbi lonse la mʼdziko la Igupto linasanduka nsabwe.
18 And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring forth the lice, but they could not; so were the lice upon man and upon beast.
Koma amatsenga atayesa kupanga nsabwe mwa matsenga awo, analephera. Ndipo nsabwezo zinali pa munthu aliyense ndi pa ziweto zawo.
19 Then said the magicians unto Pharaoh, This is a finger of God; but Pharaoh's heart remained hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had spoken.
Amatsenga anati kwa Farao, “Izi wachita ndi Mulungu.” Koma mtima wa Farao unali wowumabe ndipo sanamvere zonena za Mose ndi Aaroni monga momwe Yehova ananenera.
20 And the Lord said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and place thyself before Pharaoh; lo, he goeth forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Mmawa, upite ukakumane ndi Farao maso ndi maso pamene azidzapita ku madzi ndipo ukanene kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Lola anthu anga kuti apite akandipembedze.
21 For if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send against thee, and against thy servants, and against thy people, and into thy houses various wild beasts: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of the wild beasts, and also the ground whereon they dwell.
Koma ngati suwalola anthu anga kuti apite, Ine ndidzatumiza pa iwe ntchentche zoluma ndi pa nduna zako ndi anthu ako ndi mʼnyumba zanu. Mʼnyumba za Aigupto mudzadzaza ntchentche zoluma. Ngakhale pa nthaka pamene akhalapo padzadzaza ndi ntchentche zoluma.’”
22 And I will distinguish on that day the land of Goshen, in which my people abideth, so that no wild beasts shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.
“Koma pa tsikulo ndidzapatula dera la Goseni, kumene kumakhala anthu anga, motero kuti sikudzakhala ntchentche zoluma. Choncho iwe udzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndi amene ndikulamulira dziko lino.
23 And I will put a distinction between my people and thy people; tomorrow shall this sign be.
Ndidzasiyanitsa pakati pa anthu anga ndi anthu ako. Chizindikiro chozizwitsa ichi chidzachitika mawa.”
24 And the Lord did so; and there came a grievous multitude of beasts into the house of Pharaoh, and into the house of his servants; and in all the land of Egypt, the land was laid waste by reason of the wild beasts.
Ndipo Yehova anachita zimenezi: Ntchentche zoluma zochuluka zinalowa mʼnyumba yaufumu ya Farao ndi nyumba za nduna zake. Choncho ntchentche zolumazi zinawononga dziko lonse la Igupto.
25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
Kenaka Farao anayitanitsa Mose ndi Aaroni nati, “Pitani kaperekeni nsembe kwa Mulungu wanu mʼdziko lomwe lino.”
26 And Moses said, It is not proper to do so; for the abomination of the Egyptians must we sacrifice to the Eternal our God: lo, if we should sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, would they not stone us?
Koma Mose anati, “Sitingathe kutero pakuti nsembe zathu kwa Yehova Mulungu ndi zowayipira Aigupto. Ngati tipereke nsembe zowayipira Aigupto mʼmaso mwawo, adzatiponya miyala kuti tife.
27 A three days' journey will we go into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the Lord our God, just as he may say unto us.
Ife tiyenera kuyenda ulendo wa masiku atatu kupita ku chipululu kukapereka nsembe kwa Yehova Mulungu wathu monga anatilamulira.”
28 And Pharaoh said, I will surely let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Eternal your God in the wilderness; only do not go very far away: entreat for me.
Farao anati, “Ine ndikulolani kuti mupite ku chipululu kukapereka nsembe kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu, koma musapite kutali kwambiri. Tsopano ndipempherereni.”
29 And Moses said, Behold, I am going out from thee, and I will entreat the Lord, and the wild beasts shall depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more, so as not to let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
Mose anayankha kuti, “Ine ndikangochoka pano, ndikapemphera kwa Yehova ndipo mawa lomweli ntchentche zoluma zidzachoka kwa Farao, nduna zake pamodzi ndi anthu ake. Koma Farao, onetsetsani kuti musachitenso zachinyengo ndi kuwakaniza anthu kuti asakapereke nsembe kwa Yehova.”
30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the Lord.
Choncho Mose anasiyana ndi Farao nakapemphera kwa Yehova.
31 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the wild beasts from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
Ndipo Yehova anachita zomwe Mose anapempha: Ntchentche zoluma zinachoka kwa Farao ndi nduna zake ndiponso kwa anthu ake. Palibe ngakhale imodzi yomwe inatsala.
32 But Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, and he did not let the people go.
Koma nthawi imeneyinso Farao anawumitsa mtima wake ndipo sanalole kuti anthu atuluke.
