Exodus 7
1 The LORD said to Moses, "Look, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Taona ine ndakuyika kuti ukhale ngati Mulungu kwa Farao, ndipo mʼbale wako Aaroni adzakhala mneneri wako.
2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
Iwe ukanene zonse zimene ndakulamulirazi, ndipo Aaroni mʼbale wako ndiye akaziyankhule kwa Farao kuti atulutse ana a Israeli mʼdziko la Igupto.
3 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
Koma ndidzawumitsa mtima wa Farao, ndipo ngakhale nditachulukitsa zizindikiro zozizwitsa ndi zodabwitsa mu Igupto,
4 But Pharaoh will not listen to you, and I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring forth my regiments, my people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
iyeyo sadzakumverani. Choncho ndidzakantha Igupto, ndipo ndi ntchito zachiweruzo ndidzatulutsa magulu anga, anthu anga Aisraeli kuwachotsa mʼdziko la Igupto.
5 The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth my hand on Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them."
Ndipo Aigupto adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova, ndikadzatambasula dzanja langa kukantha Igupto ndi kutulutsa Aisraeli mʼdzikomo.”
6 Moses and Aaron did so. As the LORD commanded them, so they did.
Mose ndi Aaroni anachita monga momwe Yehova anawalamulira.
7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Mose anali ndi zaka 80, ndipo Aaroni anali ndi zaka 83 pamene anakayankhula kwa Farao.
8 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Yehova anati kwa Mose ndi Aaroni,
9 "When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, 'Perform a miracle.' then you shall tell Aaron, 'Take your staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.'"
“Ngati Farao adzati kwa inu, ‘Chitani chozizwitsa,’ iwe Mose udzati kwa Aaroni, ‘Tenga ndodo yako ndipo uyiponye pamaso pa Farao,’ ndipo idzasanduka njoka.”
10 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
Kotero Mose ndi Aaroni anapita kwa Farao ndi kuchita monga momwe Yehova anawalamulira. Aaroni anaponya ndodo yake pansi patsogolo pa Farao ndi nduna zake ndipo inasanduka njoka.
11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did in like manner with their secret arts.
Naye Farao anayitanitsa anthu ake anzeru ndi amatsenga, ndipo nawonso amatsenga a Chiigupto anachita zinthu zomwezo mwa matsenga awo.
12 For they cast down every man his staff, and they became serpents: but Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs.
Aliyense wa iwo anaponya ndodo yake pansi ndipo inasanduka njoka. Koma ndodo ya Aaroni inameza ndodo zawo.
13 Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them; as the LORD had spoken.
Koma mtima wa Farao unawuma ndipo sanawamvere monga momwe Yehova ananenera.
14 The LORD said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Farao ndi wowuma mtima. Akukana kulola anthu anga kuti apite.
15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Look, he goes out to the water; and you shall stand by the river's bank to meet him; and the staff which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand.
Upite kwa Farao mmawa pamene azidzapita ku madzi. Ukamudikire mʼmbali mwa Nailo kuti ukakumane naye ndipo unyamule ndodo imene inasanduka njoka ija mʼdzanja lako.
16 You shall tell him, 'The LORD, God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, "Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness:" and look, until now you haven't listened.
Ndipo ukamuwuze Farao kuti, ‘Yehova, Mulungu wa Ahebri wandituma kuti ndikuwuzeni kuti: Lolani anthu anga apite kuti akandipembedze mʼchipululu. Koma mpaka tsopano inu simunandimvere.
17 Thus says the LORD, "In this you shall know that I am the LORD. Look, I will strike with the staff that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
Izi ndi zimene Yehova akunena: Ndi ndodo imene ili mʼdzanja langa ndidzamenya madzi a mu Nailo, ndipo madzi adzasanduka magazi. Ndikadzachita ichi udzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova:
18 The fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink water from the river."'"
Nsomba za mu Nailo zidzafa, mtsinje udzanunkha ndipo Aigupto sadzatha kumwa madzi ake.’”
19 The LORD said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Take your staff, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'"
Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Uza Aaroni kuti, ‘Tenga ndodo yako uyilozetse ku madzi a mu Igupto pa mitsinje, pa ngalande, pa zithaphwi ndi pa madambo, ndipo onse adzasanduka magazi.’ Mʼdziko lonse la Igupto mudzakhala magazi, ngakhale mʼzotungira madzi zopangidwa ndi mitengo ndi miyala.”
20 Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the staff, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
Mose ndi Aaroni anachita monga momwe Yehova analamulira. Anakweza ndodo yake pamaso pa Farao ndi akuluakulu ake ndipo anamenya madzi a mu Nailo, ndipo madzi onse anasanduka magazi.
21 The fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul, and the Egyptians couldn't drink water from the river; and the blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
Nsomba za mu Nailo zinafa ndipo mtsinje unanunkha kwambiri kotero kuti Aigupto sanathe kumwa madzi ake. Magazi anali ponseponse mu Igupto.
22 The magicians of Egypt did in like manner with their secret arts; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them; as the LORD had spoken.
Koma amatsenga a Chiigupto anachita zinthu zomwezo mwa matsenga awo. Choncho Farao anawumabe mtima, ndipo sanamvere zonena za Mose ndi Aaroni monga momwe Yehova ananeneratu.
23 Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he lay even this to heart.
Mʼmalo mwake iye anatembenuka ndi kupita ku nyumba yake yaufumu ndipo zimenezi sanazilabadire.
24 All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn't drink of the water of the river.
Anthu onse a ku Igupto anayamba kukumba mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Nailo kuti apeze madzi akumwa, chifukwa sanathe kumwa madzi a mu mtsinjemo.
25 Seven days were fulfilled, after the LORD had struck the river.
Panapita masiku asanu ndi awiri Yehova atamenya madzi a mu mtsinje wa Nailo.
