< Exodus 4 >

1 Then responded Moses, and said, And lo! they will not believe me, neither hearken to my voice, —for they will say, Yahweh, hath not appeared unto thee.
Simmungbat ni Moises, “Ngem kasano no saanda a mamati kaniak wenno dumngeg kaniak ngem ibagada ketdi, 'Saan a nagparang ni Yahweh kenka'?”
2 And Yahweh said unto him—What is this in thy hand? And he said—A staff.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Ania dayta adda dita imam?” Kinuna ni Moises, “Maysa a baston.”
3 Then said he—Cast it to the earth. And he cast it to the earth, and it became a serpent, —and Moses fled from the face thereof.
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 Yahweh said unto Moses, Put forth thy hand, and take it by its tail: So he put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a staff 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 that they may believe that Yahweh, God of their fathers, —God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob hath appeared unto thee.
“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 Then said Yahweh unto him, yet again—Bring, I pray thee, thy hand, into thy bosom. So he brought his hand, into his bosom, —and then took it out, and lo! his hand, was leprous, —like 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 said—Put back thy hand into thy bosom: So he put back his hand into his bosom, —and then took it out of his bosom, and lo it had come again like his own 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 thus shall it come to pass, if they will not believe thee, nor hearken to the voice of the first sign, then will they believe the voice of the next 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 shall come to pass if they will not believe even these two signs nor hearken to thy voice, then shalt thou take of the water of the river, and pour it out on the dry land, —so shall the water which thou hast taken from the river, become, yea it shall 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 said unto Yahweh—Pardon, O My Lord! not a man of words, am I, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant, —for heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue, I am.
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 Then Yahweh said unto him—Who appointed a mouth for man, or who appointeth him to be dumb, or deaf, or seeing or blind? Is it not I, Yahweh?
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 Now, therefore go, —and, I, will be with thy mouth, so will I direct thee, what thou shalt speak.
Isu nga ita mapanka, ket addaakto iti ngiwatmo ken isurokto kenka ti ibagam.”
13 And he said—Pardon, O My Lord! send, I pray thee by the hand of him whom thou wilt send—
Ngem kinuna ni Moises,” Apo, pangngaasim mangibaonka laengen iti sabali, siasinoman a kayatmo nga ibaon.”
14 Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh against Moses, and he said—Is there not Aaron, thy brother, the Levite? I know that he, can speak. Moreover also lo! he himself is coming forth to meet thee, as surely as he seeth thee, so surely will he rejoice 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 Then shalt thou speak unto him, and shalt put the words in his mouth, —and, I, will be with thy mouth and with his mouth, so will I direct you what ye shall do.
Makisaritakanto kenkuana ket ibagam dagiti sawenna. Tulongankayonto nga agsao, ket ipakitakto kadakayo a dua ti aramidenyo.
16 And, he, shall speak for thee unto the people, —so shall it come to pass that he shall become thy mouth, and thou shalt become to him as God.
Agsaonto isuna kadagiti tattao para kenka. Isunanto ti pannakangiwatmo, ken addakanto kenkuana a kas kaniak, ti Dios.
17 And this staff, take thou in thy hand, —wherewith thou shalt do the signs.
Itugotmonto daytoy a baston. Babaen iti daytoy, agaramidkanto kadagiti pagilasinan.”
18 So Moses went and returned unto Jethro his father-in-law and said to him—Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren who are in Egypt, that I may see whether they are yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses: Go and prosper.
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 Then said Yahweh unto Moses in Midian, Go, return to Egypt, —for all the men are dead who were seeking thy life.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises diay Midian, “Mapanka, agsublika idiay Egipto, gapu ta natayen dagiti amin a tattao a mangpangpanggep a mangpatay kenka.
20 So Moses took his wife and his sons, and caused them to ride upon the ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt, —and Moses took the staff 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 Yahweh said unto Moses, When thou goest to return to Egypt, see as touching all the wonders which I have put in thy hand, that thou do them before Pharaoh—but, I, will let his heart wax bold, and he will not suffer the people to go.
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 Then shalt thou say unto Pharaoh, Thus, saith Yahweh—My son—my firstborn, is Israel;
Masapul nga ibagam kenni Faraon, 'Daytoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh: Anakko ni Israel, ti inauna nga anakko,
23 Therefore I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me, But if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I, am going to slay, thy son, thy 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 came to pass, on the way, in the resting-place for the night, that Yahweh fell upon him, and sought to kill him.
Ita, iti dalan, idi nagsardengda iti rabii, sinabat ni Yahweh ni Moises ket dandanina pinatay isuna.
25 So Zipporah took a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it down at his feet, —and said—Surely, a bridegroom by rites of blood, art thou 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 So he let him go, Then, it was that she said, A bridegroom by rites of blood—with regard to the rites of circumcision.
Isu a binaybay-anen ni Yahweh isuna nga agmaymaysa. Kinunana, “Asawaka iti dara” gapu iti pannakakugit.
27 And Yahweh said unto Aaron, Go thy way to meet Moses, towards the desert. So he went his way, and fell in with him in the mountain of God and kissed 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 told Aaron, all the words of Yahweh wherewith he had sent him, —and all the signs wherewith he had 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 So Moses and Aaron went their way, —and gathered together all the elders of the sons of Israel.
Kalpasanna, inummong ni Moises ken Aaron dagiti amin a panglakayen dagiti Israelita.
30 And Aaron spake all the words which Yahweh had spoken unto Moses, —and did 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 believed, —and when they heard that Yahweh had concerned himself for the sons of Israel, and that he had looked upon their humiliation, then bent they their heads and bowed themselves down.
Namati dagiti tattao. Idi nangngegda a pinaliiw ni Yahweh dagiti Israelita ken nakitana dagiti pannakaparparigatda, ket nagdumogda ken nagrukbabda kenkuana.
