Exodus 7
1 Then said Yahweh unto Moses—See! I have appointed thee to be God unto Pharaoh, —and, Aaron thy brother, shall be thy prophet!
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ilaa, ani Faraʼooniif waaqa si godheera; obboleessi kee Aroon immoo raajii siif taʼa.
2 Thou, shalt speak all that which I may command thee, and, Aaron thy brother, shall speak unto Pharaoh, and he shall let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
Ati waan ani si ajaju hunda ni dubbata; obboleessi kee Aroon immoo akka inni Israaʼeloota biyya isaa keessaa gad dhiisu Faraʼoonitti ni hima.
3 But, I, will suffer Pharaoh to harden his heart, —so will I multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
Ani garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa nan godha; yoo ani biyya Gibxi keessatti mallattoowwanii fi dinqiiwwan koo baayʼise iyyuu,
4 And Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, so will I lay my hand on Egypt, —and bring forth my hosts—my people the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, with great judgments.
inni isin hin dhaggeeffatu. Ani harka koo Gibxi irratti ol nan kaasa; murtii jabaadhaanis raayyaa koo, saba Israaʼel biyya Gibxi keessaa nan baasa.
5 And the Egyptians shall know that I, am Yahweh, when I have stretched forth my hand over Egypt, —and brought forth the sons of Israel out of their midst.
Warri Gibxi yommuu ani harka koo Gibxi irratti ol kaafadhee saba Israaʼel achi keessaa baasutti akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
6 And Moses and Aaron did [so], —as Yahweh commanded them, so, did they.
Musee fi Aroonis akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje godhan.
7 Now Moses, was eighty years old, and, Aaron, eighty-three years old, —when they spake unto Pharaoh.
Yeroo Faraʼoonitti dubbatanitti Museen nama waggaa saddeettama ture; Aroon immoo nama waggaa saddeettamii sadii ture.
8 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying:
Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;
9 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you saying, Shew for yourselves a wonder, then shalt thou say unto Aaron, Take thy staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh let it become a sea-serpent.
“Yommuu Faraʼoon, ‘Dinqii hojjedhaa’ isiniin jedhutti, ati immoo Arooniin, ‘Ulee kee fuudhiitii fuula Faraʼoon duratti lafa buusi’ jetta; uleen sunis bofa taʼa.”
10 So Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and did so as Yahweh had commanded, —and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and before his servants and it became a sea-serpent,
Musee fi Aroon Faraʼoon bira dhaqanii akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje sana godhan. Aroon fuula Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltota isaa duratti ulee isaa lafa buuse; uleen sunis bofa taate.
11 Then called Pharaoh also for the wise men and for the magicians, —and they too, the sacred scribes of Egypt with their secret arts, did in like manner;
Faraʼoonis beektotaa fi falfaltoota ofitti waame; tolfattoonni Gibxi ogummaa isaanii dhokataa sanaan akkasuma godhan.
12 yea they cast down each man his staff, and they became sea-serpents, —but Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staves.
Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii ulee isaanii lafa buusan; uleen isaaniis bofa taʼe. Uleen Aroon garuu ulee isaanii liqimsite.
13 Then waxed bold the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them, —as spake Yahweh.
Taʼus Faraʼoon akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana mata jabeessa taʼee isaan dhaggeeffachuu dide.
14 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Dull, is the heart of Pharaoh, —he hath refused to let the people go.
Kana irratti Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Faraʼoon mata jabeessa taʼeera; saba sanas gad dhiisuu dide.
15 Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning—lo! he is coming out to the waters, therefore shalt thou station thyself to meet him on the bank of the river, —and the staff which was turned into a serpent, shalt thou take in thy hand.
Ganamaan gara Faraʼoon dhaqi; kunoo inni bishaanitti gad baʼa. Ulee bofatti geeddaramte sana harkatti qabadhuutii qarqara laga Abbayyaatti isa eegi.
16 Then shalt thou say unto him—Yahweh God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee saying, —Let my people go, that they may serve me in the desert, —And lo! thou hast not hearkened hitherto.
Akkanas jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Ibrootaa akkana jedhee sitti na ergeera: Akka sabni koo dhaqee gammoojjii keessatti naaf sagaduuf gad lakkisi. Ati garuu hamma ammaatti ajajamuu diddeerta.
17 Thus, saith Yahweh, Hereby, shalt thou know that, I, am Yahweh, —Lo! I, am smiting with the staff that is in my hand upon the waters that are in the river and they shall be turned to blood;
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ati kanaan beekta: Kunoo ani ulee harka koo keessa jiru kanaan bishaan Abbayyaa nan dhaʼa; bishaan sunis dhiigatti geeddarama.
18 and, the fish that is in the river shall die and the river shall be loathsome, —and the Egyptians, shall disdain, to drink water out of the river.
Qurxummiiwwan laga Abbayyaa keessaa ni duʼu; lagni sunis ni ajaaʼa; warri Gibxis bishaan laga sanaa dhuguu hin dandaʼan.’”
19 And Yahweh said unto Moses, —Say unto Aaron—Take thy staff, and stretch forth thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their streams over their rivers, and over their pools and over all their collections of water—that they may become blood, —so shall there be blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.
Waaqayyo immoo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Arooniin akkana jedhi; ‘Ulee kee qabadhuutii bishaanota Gibxi irratti, lageen isaanii irratti, doloolloo isaanii irratti, haroo isaaniitii fi kuusaa bishaanii hunda irratti harka kee diriirsi.’ Isaanis dhiigatti geeddaramu. Gibxi guutuun dhiigaan guutama; qodaan mukaatii fi okkoteen dhagaa dhiigaan guutaman.”
20 And Moses and Aaron, did so, as Yahweh commanded, and he lifted high the staff, and smote the waters which were in the river, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, —and all the waters which were in the river were turned to blood;
Musee fi Aroon akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje sana godhan. Aroon ulee isaa ol fuudhee fuula Faraʼooniitii fi qondaaltota isaa duratti bishaan Abbayyaa dhaʼe; bishaan sun hundis dhiigatti geeddarame.
21 and the fish that was in the river, died and the river became loathsome, so that the Egyptians could not drink water out of the river, —thus came it to pass that blood was in all the land of Egypt.
Qurxummiiwwan Abbayyaa duunaan lagichi ajaaʼe; warri Gibxis bishaan isaa dhuguu hin dandeenye. Gibxi guutuunis dhiigaan guutame.
22 And the sacred scribes of Egypt did in like manner with their secret arts, —so the heart of Pharaoh waxed bold and he hearkened not unto them, as spake Yahweh.
Garuu tolfattoonni Gibxi tolcha isaaniitiin akkasuma hojjetan; Faraʼoonis mata jabeessa taʼe. Innis akkuma Waaqayyo jedhe sana Musee fi Aroon dhagaʼuu dide.
23 Then Pharaoh, turned away, and entered into his house—neither applied he his heart, even to this.
Faraʼoonis deebiʼee masaraa isaa seene; innis waan kana yaadatti illee hin qabanne.
24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink, —for they could not drink of the water of the river.
Warri Gibxi hundi waan bishaan laga sanaa dhuguu hin dandaʼiniif bishaan dhugaatii baafachuuf jedhanii qarqara Abbayyaa qotatan.
25 And seven days were fulfilled, —after Yahweh had smitten the river.
Erga Waaqayyo Abbayyaan dhaʼee guyyaan torba darbe.
