Exodus 1
1 Now, these, are the names of the Sons of Israel, who came into Egypt, with Jacob, did each man and his household come in: —
Magi e nying jo-Israel mane odhi e piny Misri gi Jakobo, moro ka moro gi joode:
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;
Reuben, Simeon, Lawi, kod Juda;
3 Issachar, Zebulon, and Benjamin;
Isakar, Zebulun kod Benjamin;
4 Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.
Dan kod Naftali; Gad kod Asher.
5 And it came to pass that all the persons who were descended from Jacob were seventy souls, —but, Joseph, was already in Egypt.
Joka Jakobo duto noromo ji piero abiriyo, nikech Josef to noyudo osechopo e piny Misri.
6 So then Joseph died and all his brethren, and all that generation.
Koro Josef gi owetene duto kod tiengʼno duto notho,
7 But the sons of Israel, were fruitful and swarmed and multiplied and waxed mighty, with exceeding vigour, —so that the land was filled with them.
to jo-Israel nonyaa kendo gimedore ahinya mi gimedo bedo oganda mathoth moloyo mane gipongʼo pinyno duto.
8 Then arose a new king over Egypt, —who had not known Joseph.
Bangʼe ruoth manyien mane ok ongʼeyo wach Josef nobedo e loch e piny Misri.
9 So he said, unto his people, Lo! the people of the sons of Israel are too many and mighty for us!
Nonyiso joge niya, “Neuru, jo-Israel osenyaa moloyowa.
10 Come on! let us shew ourselves wise with regard to them, lest they so multiply that it shall come to pass when war befalleth us, that they also, shall join themselves unto them who hate us, and shall make war upon us. and then go up out of the land.
Watangʼuru, nono to gibiro medore ahinya kendo bedo maratego, ma ka lweny owuok ginyalo dok ne wasikwa mondo giked kodwa, mi giring gia e pinywa.”
11 So they set over them chiefs of tribute, to the end they might humiliate them with their burdens, —and they built store-cities for Pharaoh, even Pithom and Raamses.
Kuom mano, jo-Misri noketo nyipeche mondo ochun jo-Israel gi tich matek, kendo negigero Pithom gi Rameses kaka miech keno mag ruoth Farao.
12 But the more they were humiliating them, the more, were they multiplying, and, the more, were they breaking forth, so they were filled with alarm because of the sons of Israel.
To kaka ne imedo sandgi, e kaka negimedo nyaa kendo gimedore; omiyo jo-Misri nomedo luoro jo-Israel,
13 And the Egyptians rigorously made the sons of Israel serve;
kuom mano jo-Misri nobembo jo-Israel gi tich mapek mar wasumbini.
14 and embittered their lives with harsh service, in clay and in bricks, and in all manner of service in the field, —all their service, wherein they rigorously made them serve.
Negimiyo ngimagi odoko matek gi tije achuna mag nyono lowo mar matafare; e tijegi duto jo-Misri noketogi gi tich mapek mar wasumbini.
15 Then said the king of Egypt to the Hebrew midwives, —of whom, the name of the one was, Shiphrah, and, the name of the other Puah; —
Bangʼe ruodh jo-Misri nogolo chik mondo mond jo-Hibrania ma jocholo miluongo ni Shifra kod Pua niya,
16 then he said—When ye act as midwives unto the Hebrew women, then shall ye look out for the sex, —If it is, a son, then shall ye kill it, But, if it is, a daughter, then shall it live.
“Ka ucholo mond jo-Hibrania mi uneno ka onywolo nyathi ma wuowi, to negeuru, to ka en nyathi ma nyako, to kik unege.”
17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt spake unto them, —but suffered the male children to live.
To kata kamano, jochologo noluoro Nyasaye kendo ne ok gitimo gima ruodh jo-Misri nonyisogi mondo gitim, mine ok ginego nyithindo ma yawuowi.
18 Then called the king of Egypt for the midwives, and said to them—Wherefore have ye done this thing, that ye should let the male children live?
Ruodh jo-Misri noluongo jochologo mi openjogi niya, “En angʼo momiyo utimo kama? Angʼo momiyo ok uneg nyithindo ma yawuowi?”
19 And the midwives said unto Pharaoh. Because not like the Egyptian women, are the Hebrew women, for they are full of life, ere yet the midwife can come in unto them, they have given birth,
Jochologo nodwoko Farao niya, “Mond jo-Hibrania ok chal gi mond jo-Misri, gin giteko kendo ginywol kapok jocholo ochopo irgi.”
20 So then God dealt well with the midwives, —and the people multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty.
Kuom mano Nyasaye nogwedho jochologo, kendo jo-Israel nomedo nyaa mi odoko oganda maduongʼ.
21 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made for them households.
Nikech jochologo noluoro Nyasaye, Nyasaye nogwedhogi gi nyithindo.
22 Then gave Pharaoh command to all his people saying—Every son that is born to the Hebrews, into the river, shall ye cast him; But every daughter, shall ye suffer to live.
Bangʼe Farao nogolo chik ne joge kowacho niya, “Nyathi ma wuowi moro amora monywol nyaka udir e aora Nael, to nyithindo ma nyiri to uwe odongi.”
