Exodus 14
1 Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis,
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and camp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall camp opposite it by the sea.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel ka ha chigharịa azụ jee maa ụlọ ikwu ha na ncherita ihu Pi Hahirot, nke dị nʼetiti Migdol na osimiri. Ọ bụ nʼakụkụ osimiri, na ncherita ihu obodo Baal-Zefọn ka ha ga-ama ụlọ ikwu ha.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are wandering in the land. The wilderness has boxed them in.'
Fero ga-asị banyere ụmụ Izrel, ‘Ha na-awagharị gburugburu ala ahụ nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya ebe ọzara riri ha.’
4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will pursue them. And I will gain glory because of Pharaoh and because of all his army, and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD." And they did so.
Aga m eme ka obi Fero sie ike ka ọ chụso unu ọsọ nʼazụ, ma m ga-ewetara onwe m otuto site na Fero na ndị agha ya niile. Ndị Ijipt niile ga-ama na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.” Ndị Izrel mekwara otu ahụ.
5 And when the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"
Mgbe a gwara eze Ijipt na ndị a agbaala ọsọ, obi Fero na ndị ozi ya gbanwere megide ndị Izrel. Ha sịrị, “Gịnị bụ ihe anyị mere, site na izipụ ndị Izrel nʼọrụ ife anyị?”
6 Then he made ready his chariot, and took his army with him;
Na-atụfughị oge, Fero rigoro nʼelu ụgbọ agha ya, duru ndị agha ya ịchụso ha.
7 and he took six hundred select chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and officers over all of them.
Ọ chịịrị ụgbọ agha dị narị isii e leziri anya họpụta, tinyere ụgbọ agha Ijipt niile. Ndịisi agha ndị Ijipt nọcha nʼelu ha niile.
8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel were going out triumphantly.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero eze Ijipt sie ike. Ọ chụsoro ụmụ Izrel, ndị na-aga nʼihu nʼije ha, na-atụghị egwu maọbụ ịda mba.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh and his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
Ndị Ijipt chụsoro ha ọsọ, ịnyịnya Fero na ụgbọ agha, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya na ndị agha ndị ọzọ chụsoro ndị Izrel ọsọ chụkwute ha nʼebe ha na-ezu ike nʼakụkụ osimiri dị nso na Pi Hahirot na ncherita ihu Baal-Zefọn.
10 When Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and look, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they were very afraid. So the children of Israel cried out to the LORD.
Mgbe ndị agha Fero na-abịa nso, ndị Izrel lere anya nʼazụ, hụ ndị Ijipt ka ha na-abịa nso. Ha tụrụ egwu, tie mkpu akwa, kpọkuo Onyenwe anyị.
11 And they said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
Ha jụrụ Mosis sị, “Ọ bụ na o nweghị ili dị nʼala Ijipt, i ji kwagide anyị ka anyị niile bịa nwụọ nʼebe a nʼọzara? Gịnị mere i ji kwagide anyị ka anyị hapụ Ijipt?
12 Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness."
Ọ bụ na anyị agwaghị gị nʼala Ijipt si gị, ‘Hapụ anyị ka anyị nọgide na-ejere ndị Ijipt ozi?’ Ọ gara akara anyị mma ị bụ ohu ndị Ijipt karịa ịnwụ nʼọzara.”
13 But Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of God, which he will work for you today, for the Egyptians you see today, you will never, ever see again.
Mosis zaghachiri ha sị, “Unu atụla egwu. Guzosienụ ike. Unu ga-ahụ ụzọ dị ebube Onyenwe anyị ga-esi zọpụta unu taa. Ndị Ijipt a unu na-ahụ taa, unu agaghị ahụkwa ha ọzọ.
14 The LORD will fight for you, and you must be still."
Nọrọnụ jii. Onyenwe anyị ga-alụrụ unu ọgụ.”
15 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Why are you crying out to me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji na-akpọku m. Gwa ụmụ Izrel ka ha gaa nʼihu.
16 And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and the children of Israel will go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
Welie mkpanaka gị elu. Setịpụ ya nʼelu osimiri ahụ ka o kewaa abụọ. Ụzọ ga-adịkwa nʼetiti osimiri ahụ. Ụmụ Izrel ga-esitekwa nʼala akọrọ gafee.
17 And as for me, look, I am going to harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them, and I will receive glory over Pharaoh and all his army, his chariots and his horsemen.
Aga m eme ka obi ndị Ijipt sie ike, ka ha sorokwa unu nʼazụ banye. Aga m ewetara onwe m otuto site na Fero, na ndị agha niile, na ụgbọ agha niile nakwa ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.
18 Then the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD, when I receive glory over Pharaoh, his chariots and his horsemen."
Nʼoge ahụ, ndị Ijipt ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị. M ga-enweta nsọpụrụ site na Fero, na ụgbọ agha ya niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.”
19 And the angel of God who was going in front of the camp of Israel moved and went behind them, and the pillar of cloud moved from in front of them and stood behind them.
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi Chineke, onye na-aga nʼihu ndị agha Izrel, sitere nʼihu pụọ gaa nọdụ nʼazụ ha. Otu a kwa, ogidi igwe ojii ahụ sitere nʼihu gaa nʼazụ ha.
20 So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness and it lit up the night so that the one did not come near the other all night.
Nke a mere ka ogidi igwe ojii ahụ dịrị nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel na ndị Ijipt. Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị mere ka ogidi igwe ojii ahụ nye ụmụ Izrel ìhè, ma ndị Ijipt nọgidere nʼọchịchịrị. Otu a, ndị Ijipt enweghị ike bịarute nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ.
21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD pushed the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided.
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis setịpụrụ aka ya nʼelu Osimiri Uhie ahụ. Onyenwe anyị ji oke ifufe si nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, nke fere nʼabalị ahụ niile, nughachi osimiri ahụ, mee ka osimiri ahụ kebie ụzọ abụọ, ka ụzọ pụta nʼala osimiri ahụ.
22 Then the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right and on their left.
Ụmụ Izrel sitere nʼetiti osimiri ahụ gafee. Mmiri osimiri ahụ ghọọrọ mgbidi nʼaka nri ha ma nʼaka ekpe ha.
23 And the Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all of Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
Mgbe ndị agha Ijipt na-achụ ha ọsọ hụrụ ha ka ha na-agafe, ha sogidere ha baa, ọ bụladị nʼetiti osimiri ahụ. Ndị agha Ijipt niile sooro ha, ya bụ, ụgbọ agha Fero, ndị agha ya na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya niile.
24 And it happened, in the morning watch, that the LORD looked down on the Egyptian camp through the pillar of fire and cloud and threw the camp into confusion.
Nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, Onyenwe anyị ledatara anya site nʼogidi igwe ojii ahụ na-enye ihe. O legidere ndị agha Ijipt anya, tinyekwa ha ụjọ nʼobi nke mere na ha amakwaghị onwe ha.
25 And he bound their chariot wheels so that they drove them with difficulty. And the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from before Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egypt."
O mebiri ụkwụ ụgbọ agha ha mee ka o siere ịnyịnya ha ike ịdọkpụ ụgbọ agha ndị ahụ. Mgbe ahụ, ndị Ijipt kwuru sị, “Ka anyị sinụ nʼịchụ ndị Izrel gbapụ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-alụrụ ha ọgụ, na-emegidekwa anyị.”
26 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."
Mgbe ụmụ Izrel gafesịrị ruo nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ nke osimiri ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Setịpụ aka gị ọzọ ka mmiri ahụ kpuchigide ndị Ijipt, na ụgbọ agha ha niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.”
27 So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state at daybreak. Now the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, but the LORD shook off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
Mosis setịpụrụ aka nʼelu osimiri ahụ. Nʼụtụtụ ya, mmiri osimiri ahụ sọghachiri gaa ebe ọ nọ na mbụ. Ndị Ijipt chọsịrị ụzọ ha si agbapụ ike, ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka osimiri ahụ kpuchie ha.
28 Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed them into the sea. None of them survived.
Osimiri ahụ kpuchigidere ụgbọ agha ha niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya, na ndị agha Fero niile ndị chụụrụ ụmụ Izrel baa nʼime osimiri ahụ. O nweghị otu onye nʼime ha fọdụrụ ndụ.
29 But the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Ma ụmụ Izrel esitelarị nʼala nke mmiri kọrọ gafee osimiri ahụ. Mgbe ha na-agafekwa, akụkụ abụọ nke osimiri ahụ guzoro ọtọ dịka mgbidi, nʼaka nri ha ma nʼaka ekpe ha.
30 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day from the power of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
Site nʼụzọ dị otu a, Onyenwe anyị zọpụtara ụmụ Izrel site nʼaka ndị Ijipt. Ụmụ Izrel hụkwara ozu ndị Ijipt nʼikpere mmiri osimiri ahụ.
31 When Israel saw the great power which the LORD used against the Egyptians, then the people feared the LORD, and they believed God and his servant Moses.
Ụmụ Izrel tụrụ egwu Onyenwe anyị mgbe ha hụrụ ihe ịrịbama ndị a Onyenwe anyị ji zọpụta ha site nʼaka ndị Ijipt. Ha kwenyere na Onyenwe anyị, kwenyekwa na Mosis ohu ya.
