Exodus 14
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and they turn back and encamp before Pi-Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Ba‘al-Zephon; you encamp in front of it by the sea,
“Uza Aisraeli abwerere ndi kukagona pafupi ndi Pihahiroti, pakati pa Migidoli ndi nyanja. Inu mumange zithando mʼmbali mwa nyanja moyangʼanana ndi Baala-Zefoni.
3 and Pharaoh has said of the sons of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has shut on them;
Farao adzaganiza kuti ‘Aisraeli asokonezeka nʼkumangozungulirazungulira mu dzikomo, chipululu chitawazinga.’
4 and I have strengthened the heart of Pharaoh, and he has pursued after them, and I am honored by Pharaoh, and by all his force, and the Egyptians have known that I [am] YHWH”; and they do so.
Ndidzawumitsa mtima wa Farao ndipo adzathamangira Aisraeliwo. Choncho ndikadzagonjetsa Farao ndi gulu lake lonse la nkhondo, Ine ndidzalemekezedwa.” Choncho Aisraeli aja anachita zimenezi.
5 And it is declared to the king of Egypt that the people have fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants is turned against the people, and they say, “What [is] this we have done, that we have sent Israel away from our service?”
Farao, mfumu ya Igupto atamva kuti anthu aja athawa, iye pamodzi ndi nduna zake anasintha maganizo awo pa Israeli ndipo anati, “Ife tachita chiyani? Tawalola Aisraeli kuti apite ndi kuleka kutitumikira?”
6 And he harnesses his chariot, and he has taken his people with him,
Choncho anakonzetsa galeta lake ndipo ananyamuka pamodzi ndi ankhondo ake.
7 and he takes six hundred chosen chariots, even all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over them all;
Iye anatenga magaleta 600 abwino kwambiri pamodzi ndi magaleta ena a dziko la Igupto. Anatenganso akuluakulu onse ankhondo.
8 and YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursues after the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel are going out with a high hand,
Yehova anawumitsa mtima wa Farao mfumu ya dziko la Igupto, kotero iye anawathamangira Aisraeli amene ankachoka mʼdzikomo mosavutika.
9 and the Egyptians pursue after them, and all the chariot horses of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his force, overtake them, encamping by the sea, by Pi-Hahiroth, before Ba‘al-Zephon.
Aigupto aja (kutanthauza akavalo ndi magaleta onse a Farao, okwera akavalowo pamodzi ndi gulu lonse la nkhondo) analondola Aisraeli aja ndipo anakawapeza pamalo pamene anamanga zithando paja, mʼmbali mwa nyanja, pafupi ndi Pihahiroti, moyangʼanana ndi Baala-Zefoni.
10 And Pharaoh has drawn near, and the sons of Israel lift up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians are journeying after them, and they fear exceedingly, and the sons of Israel cry to YHWH.
Tsono Farao anayandikira. Ndipo Aisraeli ataona kuti Aigupto akuwatsatira, anachita mantha aakulu ndipo anafuwula kwa Yehova.
11 And they say to Moses, “Because there are no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in a wilderness? What is this you have done to us—to bring us out from Egypt?
Iwo anafunsa Mose kuti, “Kodi nʼchifukwa chakuti kunalibe manda ku dziko la Igupto kuti iwe utibweretse muno mʼchipululu kuti tidzafe? Chimene watichitachi nʼchiyani, kutitulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto?
12 Is this not the word which we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, Cease from us, and we serve the Egyptians; for [it is] better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in a wilderness?”
Kodi sindizo zimene tinakuwuza mʼdziko la Igupto? Ife tinati, ‘Tileke titumikire Aigupto?’ Zikanatikomera kutumikira Aigupto kulekana ndi kufa mʼchipululu muno.”
13 And Moses says to the people, “Do not fear, station yourselves, and see the salvation of YHWH, which He does for you today; for as you have seen the Egyptians today, you add no more to see them for all time;
Mose anayankha anthu kuti, “Musachite mantha. Imani, ndipo muone chipulumutso chimene Yehova akuchitireni lero. Aigupto amene mukuwaona lerowa simudzawaonanso.
14 YHWH fights for you, and you keep silent.”
Yehova adzakumenyerani nkhondo. Inu mungokhala chete.”
15 And YHWH says to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Speak to the sons of Israel, and they journey;
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Chifukwa chiyani ukufuwulira kwa ine? Uwuze Aisraeli aziyenda.
16 and you, lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand toward the sea, and cleave it, and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land.
Nyamula ndodo yako ndi kutambasula dzanja lako kuloza ku nyanja, kugawa madzi kuti Aisraeli awoloke powuma.
17 And I—behold, I am strengthening the heart of the Egyptians, and they go in after them, and I am honored by Pharaoh, and by all his force, by his chariots, and by his horsemen;
Ine ndidzawumitsa mitima ya Aigupto kotero kuti adzatsatirabe Aisraeli. Ndipo ine ndikadzagonjetsa Farao ndi asilikali ake onse ankhondo, okwera magaleta ndi akavalo, ndidzapeza ulemerero.
18 and the Egyptians have known that I [am] YHWH, in My being honored by Pharaoh, by his chariots, and by his horsemen.”
Aigupto adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova akadzaona mmene ndipambanire Farao ndi magaleta ndi owayendetsa ake.”
19 And the Messenger of God, who is going before the camp of Israel, journeys and goes at their rear; and the pillar of the cloud journeys from their front, and stands at their rear,
Ndipo mngelo wa Mulungu amene amayenda patsogolo pa gulu lankhondo la Israeli anachoka ndi kupita kumbuyo kwawo. Chipilala cha mtambo chinasunthanso kuchoka kutsogolo ndi kupita kumbuyo kwawo.
20 and comes in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and the cloud and the darkness are, and he enlightens the night, and the one has not drawn near to the other all the night.
Choncho mtambowo unakhala pakati pa asilikali ankhondo a dziko la Igupto ndi a dziko la Israeli. Choncho panali mdima motero kuti magulu awiri ankhondowa sanathe kuyandikizana usiku wonse.
21 And Moses stretches out his hand toward the sea, and YHWH causes the sea to go on by a strong east wind all the night, and makes the sea become dry ground, and the waters are cleaved,
Kenaka Mose anatambalitsa dzanja lake pa nyanja, ndipo Yehova pogwiritsa ntchito mphepo yamphamvu ya kummawa imene inawomba usiku wonse anabweza madzi ndi kuwumitsa nyanja ija. Choncho nyanja ija inagawanika.
22 and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land, and the waters [are] a wall to them, on their right and on their left.
Ndipo Aisraeli anawoloka pakati pa nyanja powuma, madzi atasanduka khoma kumanja ndi kumanzere kwawo.
23 And the Egyptians pursue, and go in after them (all the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen) into the midst of the sea,
Aigupto onse, Farao, ndi onse okwera pa magaleta ndi akavalo anawalondola ndipo analowa mʼmadzi.
24 and it comes to pass, in the morning watch, that YHWH looks to the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubles the camp of the Egyptians,
Kutatsala pangʼono kucha, Yehova ali mu chipilala chamoto ndi chamtambo, anayangʼana asilikali ankhondo a Igupto ndipo anabweretsa chisokonezo pakati pawo.
25 and turns aside the wheels of their chariots, and they lead them with difficulty, and the Egyptians say, “Let us flee from the face of Israel, for YHWH is fighting for them against the Egyptians.”
Yehova anamanga matayala a magaleta kotero kuti ankavutika kuyenda. Ndipo Aigupto anati, “Tiyeni tiwathawe Aisraeli! Yehova akuwamenyera nkhondo kulimbana nafe.”
26 And YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sea, and the waters turn back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.”
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Tambasula dzanja lako pa nyanja kuti madzi amize Aigupto ndi magaleta awo ndi okwera pa akavalo.”
27 And Moses stretches out his hand toward the sea, and the sea turns back, at the turning of the morning, to its perennial flow, and the Egyptians are fleeing at its coming, and YHWH shakes off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea,
Mose anatambasula dzanja lake pa nyanja, ndipo mmene kumacha nyanja inabwerera mʼmalo mwake. Aigupto pothawa anakumana nayo, ndipo Yehova anawakokera mʼnyanja momwemo.
28 and the waters turn back, and cover the chariots and the horsemen, even all the force of Pharaoh, who are coming in after them into the sea—there has not been left even one of them.
Madzi anabwerera ndi kumiza magaleta ndi okwera akavalo, asilikali ankhondo onse amene anatsatira Aisraeli mʼnyanja, palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anapulumuka.
29 And the sons of Israel have gone on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters [are] a wall to them, on their right and on their left;
Koma Aisraeli aja anawoloka nyanja pansi pali powuma, madzi atachita khoma kumanja ndi kumanzere kwawo.
30 and YHWH saves Israel out of the hand of the Egyptians in that day, and Israel sees the Egyptians dead on the seashore,
Tsiku limeneli Yehova anapulumutsa Israeli mʼmanja mwa Aigupto ndipo Israeli anaona Aigupto ali lambalamba mʼmbali mwa nyanja atafa
31 and Israel sees the great hand with which YHWH has worked against the Egyptians, and the people fear YHWH, and remain steadfast in YHWH, and in His servant Moses.
Choncho Aisraeli anaona dzanja lamphamvu la Yehova limene linagonjetsa Aigupto aja, ndipo iwo anaopa Yehova ndi kumukhulupirira pamodzi ndi mtumiki wake Mose.
