< Exodus 4 >

1 And Moses answers and says, “And if they do not give credence to me, nor listen to my voice, and say, YHWH has not appeared to you?”
Simmungbat ni Moises, “Ngem kasano no saanda a mamati kaniak wenno dumngeg kaniak ngem ibagada ketdi, 'Saan a nagparang ni Yahweh kenka'?”
2 And YHWH says to him, “What [is] this in your hand?” And he says, “A rod”;
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Ania dayta adda dita imam?” Kinuna ni Moises, “Maysa a baston.”
3 and He says, “Cast it to the earth”; and he casts it to the earth, and it becomes a serpent—and Moses flees from its presence.
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Ipuruakmo daytoy iti daga.” Impuruak daytoy ni Moises iti daga, ket nagbalin daytoy nga uleg. Nagsanud ni Moises manipud iti daytoy.
4 And YHWH says to Moses, “Put forth your hand, and lay hold on the tail of it”; and he puts forth his hand, and lays hold on it, and it becomes a rod in his hand—
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Pidutem ken alaem daytoy babaen iti ipusna.” Isu a pinidutna ken ineggamanna ti uleg. Nagbalin manen daytoy a baston iti imana.
5 “so that they believe that YHWH, God of their fathers, has appeared to you, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.”
“Daytoy ket tapno mamatida a ni Yahweh, ti Dios dagiti kapuonanda, ti Dios ni Abraham, ti Dios ni Isaac, ken ti Dios ni Jacob, ket nagparang kenka.”
6 And YHWH says to him again, “Now put your hand into your bosom”; and he puts his hand into his bosom, and he brings it out, and behold, his hand [is] leprous as snow;
Kinuna pay ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Ita iyunegmo ta imam iti pagan-anaymo.” Inyuneg ngarud ni Moises ti imana iti pagan-anayna. Idi inruarna daytoy, adtoy, adda ketong ti imana, a kas kapuraw ti niebe.
7 and He says, “Put your hand back into your bosom”; and he puts his hand back into his bosom, and he brings it out from his bosom, and behold, it has turned back as his flesh—
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Iyunegmo manen ta imam iti pagan-anaymo.” Isu nga inyuneg ni Moises ti imana iti pagan-anayna, ket idi inruarna daytoy, nakitana a nagsubli manen ti kinasalun-atna, a kas kadagiti dadduma a lasagna.
8 “and it has come to pass, if they do not give credence to you, and do not listen to the voice of the first sign, that they have given credence to the voice of the latter sign.
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “No saandaka a patien—no saanda nga ipangag ti umuna a pagilasinan ti pannakabalinko wenno mamati iti daytoy, ket mamatidanto iti maikadua a pagilasinan.
9 And it has come to pass, if they do not give credence even to these two signs, nor listen to your voice, that you have taken of the waters of the River, and have poured [it] on the dry land, and the waters which you take from the River have been, indeed, they have become blood on the dry land.”
Ket no saanda a mamati uray kadagitoy a dua a pagilasinan ti pannakabalinko, wenno dumngeg kenka, ket mangalaka iti danum manipud ti karayan ket ibukbokmo daytoy iti namaga a daga. Ti alaem a danum ket agbalinto a dara iti namaga a daga.”
10 And Moses says to YHWH, “O my Lord, I [am] not a man of words, either yesterday, or before, or since Your speaking to Your servant, for I [am] slow of mouth, and slow of tongue.”
Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Moises kenni Yahweh, “Apo, saanak a pulos a nalaing nga agsao, uray pay iti napalabas wenno manipud idi nagsaoka iti adipenmo. Nabannayatak nga agsao ken natabbed ti dilak.”
11 And YHWH says to him, “Who appointed a mouth for man? Or who appoints the mute, or deaf, or open, or blind? Is it not I, YHWH?
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Siasino ti nangaramid iti ngiwat iti tao? Siasino ti mangar-aramid nga umel wenno tuleng wenno makakita wenno bulsek ti maysa a tao? Saan kadi a Siak, ni Yahweh?
12 And now, go, and I am with your mouth, and have directed you that which you speak”;
Isu nga ita mapanka, ket addaakto iti ngiwatmo ken isurokto kenka ti ibagam.”
13 and he says, “O my Lord, please send by the hand [of another that] You send.”
Ngem kinuna ni Moises,” Apo, pangngaasim mangibaonka laengen iti sabali, siasinoman a kayatmo nga ibaon.”
14 And the anger of YHWH burns against Moses, and He says, “Is Aaron the Levite not your brother? I have known that he speaks well, and also, behold, he is coming out to meet you; when he has seen you, then he has rejoiced in his heart,
Ket nakaunget ni Yahweh kenni Moises. Kinunana, “Ni ngay Aaron, a kabsatmo, ti Levita? Ammok a nalaing isuna nga agsao. Maysa pay, um-umayen isuna a mangsabat kenka, ket no makitanaka, maragsakanto ti pusona.
15 and you have spoken to him, and have set the words in his mouth, and I am with your mouth, and with his mouth, and have directed you that which you do;
Makisaritakanto kenkuana ket ibagam dagiti sawenna. Tulongankayonto nga agsao, ket ipakitakto kadakayo a dua ti aramidenyo.
16 and he, he has spoken to the people for you, and it has come to pass, he is to you for a mouth, and you are to him for God;
Agsaonto isuna kadagiti tattao para kenka. Isunanto ti pannakangiwatmo, ken addakanto kenkuana a kas kaniak, ti Dios.
17 and you take this rod in your hand, with which you do the signs.”
Itugotmonto daytoy a baston. Babaen iti daytoy, agaramidkanto kadagiti pagilasinan.”
18 And Moses goes and turns back to his father-in-law Jethro, and says to him, “Please let me go, and I return to my brothers who [are] in Egypt, and I see whether they are yet alive.” And Jethro says to Moses, “Go in peace.”
Isu a nagsubli ni Moises kenni Jetro a katuganganna ket kinunana kenkuana, “Palubosannak a mapan tapno makasubliak kadagiti kakabaggiak nga adda idiay Egipto ket kitaek no sibibiagda pay.” Kinuna ni Jetro kenni Moises, “Mapanka nga addaan iti kapia.”
19 And YHWH says to Moses in Midian, “Go, return to Egypt, for all the men who seek your life have died”;
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises diay Midian, “Mapanka, agsublika idiay Egipto, gapu ta natayen dagiti amin a tattao a mangpangpanggep a mangpatay kenka.
20 and Moses takes his wife, and his sons, and causes them to ride on the donkey, and turns back to the land of Egypt, and Moses takes the rod of God in his hand.
Intugot ni Moises ti asawana ken dagiti annakna ket insakayna ida iti asno. Nagsubli isuna iti daga iti Egipto. Ket intugotna ti baston ti Dios.
21 And YHWH says to Moses, “In your going to return to Egypt, see—all the wonders which I have put in your hand—that you have done them before Pharaoh, and I strengthen his heart, and he does not send the people away;
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Inton agsublika idiay Egipto, kitaem a maaramidmo iti sangoanan ni Faraon dagiti amin a nakakaskasdaaw nga inkabilko iti pannakabalinmo. Ngem patangkenekto ti pusona, ket saannanto a palubosan a mapan dagiti tattao.
22 and you have said to Pharaoh, Thus said YHWH: My son, My firstborn [is] Israel,
Masapul nga ibagam kenni Faraon, 'Daytoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh: Anakko ni Israel, ti inauna nga anakko,
23 and I say to you, send My son away, and he serves Me; and [if] you refuse to send him away, behold, I am slaying your son, your firstborn.”
ket ibagak kenka, “Palubosam a mapan ti anakko, tapno maidaydayawnak.” Ngem agsipud ta nagkedkedka a mangpalubos kenkuana, papatayekto ti anakmo, ti inauna nga anakmo.”'
24 And it comes to pass in the way, in a lodging place, that YHWH meets him, and seeks to put him to death;
Ita, iti dalan, idi nagsardengda iti rabii, sinabat ni Yahweh ni Moises ket dandanina pinatay isuna.
25 and Zipporah takes a flint, and cuts off the foreskin of her son, and causes [it] to touch his feet, and says, “You [are] surely a bridegroom of blood to me”;
Kalpasanna, nangala ni Sefora iti natadem a bato ket kinugitna ti anakna, ken insagidna daytoy iti saka ni Moises. Ket kinunana, “Awan dua-dua a sika ti asawak babaen ti dara.”
26 and He desists from him. Then she said, “A bridegroom of blood,” in reference to the circumcision.
Isu a binaybay-anen ni Yahweh isuna nga agmaymaysa. Kinunana, “Asawaka iti dara” gapu iti pannakakugit.
27 And YHWH says to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness to meet Moses”; and he goes, and meets him on the mountain of God, and kisses him,
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Aaron, “Mapanka idiay let-ang a makisinnabat kenni Moises.” Napan ni Aaron, nakitana isuna idiay bantay ti Dios, ket inagkanna isuna.
28 and Moses declares to Aaron all the words of YHWH with which He has sent him, and all the signs with which He has charged him.
Imbaga ni Moises kenni Aaron dagiti amin a sasao nga imbaga ni Yahweh kenkuana nga ibagana ken maipanggep kadagiti amin a pagilasinan ti pannakabalin ni Yahweh nga imbilinna kenkuana nga aramidenna.
29 And Moses goes—Aaron also—and they gather all the elderly of the sons of Israel,
Kalpasanna, inummong ni Moises ken Aaron dagiti amin a panglakayen dagiti Israelita.
30 and Aaron speaks all the words which YHWH has spoken to Moses, and does the signs before the eyes of the people;
Insao ni Aaron dagiti amin a sasao nga imbaga ni Yahweh kenni Moises. Impakitana pay dagiti pagilasinan ti pannakabalin ni Yahweh iti imatang dagiti tattao.
31 and the people believe when they hear that YHWH has looked after the sons of Israel, and that He has seen their affliction; and they bow and pay respect.
Namati dagiti tattao. Idi nangngegda a pinaliiw ni Yahweh dagiti Israelita ken nakitana dagiti pannakaparparigatda, ket nagdumogda ken nagrukbabda kenkuana.
