Exodus 11
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I will cause one more disaster to strike the king of Egypt and all his people [MTY]. After that, he will let you leave. In fact, he will expel you all.
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis, “Aga m ewetara Fero na Ijipt otu ihe otiti ọzọ. Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ọ ga-ekwe ka unu si nʼebe a pụọ. Nʼeziokwu, ọ ga-eji aka ya chụpụ unu nʼala ya.
2 So now speak to all the [Israeli] people. Tell them to ask all their [Egyptian] neighbors, both men and women, to give them some silver and gold jewelry.”
Gwa nwoke na nwanyị Izrel ọbụla ka ha jikere. Ha rịọọ ndị agbataobi ha bụ ndị Ijipt, ka ha nye ha ihe ọbụla e ji ọlaọcha na ọlaedo kpụọ.”
3 Yahweh made the Egyptians highly respect the Israeli people. In particular, the Egyptian officials and all [the rest of] the people considered Moses/me to be a very great man.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka ụmụ Izrel nweta ihuọma nʼebe ndị Ijipt, na ndị agbataobi ha nọ. Nke ka nke, Mosis ghọrọ onye a na-asọpụrụ nʼetiti ndị ozi Fero na nʼihu ndị Ijipt niile.
4 Then Moses/I [went to the king and] said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘About midnight [tonight] I will go throughout Egypt,
Ya mere, Mosis sịrị, “Ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Nʼihe dịka nʼetiti abalị taa, aga m agafe nʼime ala Ijipt niile.
5 and I will cause all the firstborn/oldest [sons] to die. That will include your oldest son, the oldest sons of the slave women who grind grain, [and the oldest sons of everyone else]. I will also kill the oldest males of the Egyptians’ livestock.
Mgbe nke a na-eme, ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt ga-anwụ, site nʼọkpara Fero, onye nọ ugbu a nʼocheeze ya, ruo nʼọkpara ohu onye nwanyị na-akwọ ihe na nkume ịkwọ nri, na ụmụ ehi niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ.
6 When that happens, people all over Egypt will wail loudly. They have never wailed like that before, and they will never wail like that again.
Mgbe nke a mere, iti mkpu akwa dị ukwuu ga-adị nʼala Ijipt, ụdị ga-ada nʼala Ijipt niile nke na-adịbeghị nʼala Ijipt, ụdị iti mkpu akwa nke na-agaghị adịkwa ọzọ.
7 But among the Israeli people [it will be so quiet that] not even a dog will bark! Then you will know for sure that I, Yahweh, distinguish [how I act toward] the Egyptians and [how I act toward] the Israeli people.
Ma nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ, nkịta agaghị agbọ nwoke maọbụ nwanyị maọbụ anụmanụ ọbụla ụja.’ Site na nke a, ị ga-amata na Onyenwe anyị na-akpa oke nʼetiti ndị Izrel na ndị Ijipt.
8 Then all these officials of yours will come and bow down before me and will say, “Please get out [of Egypt], you and all the Israeli people!”’ After that, I will leave Egypt!” [After Moses/I said that], he/I very angrily left the king.
Ndị ọchịchị gị ndị a ga-abịa gbuo ikpere rịọọ m sị m, ‘Biko kpọrọ ndị gị pụọ nʼobodo anyị.’ Mgbe ha mesịrị nke a, aga m apụ.” Iwe were Mosis mgbe o si nʼụlọ Fero na-apụta.
9 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The king will not pay any attention to what you say. The result will be that I will perform more plagues in the land of Egypt.”
Onyenwe anyị agwalarị Mosis sị ya, “Fero agaghị ege gị ntị. Nke a ga-enye m ohere ime ọtụtụ ihe ebube dị iche iche nʼIjipt.”
10 Aaron and Moses/I performed all these miracles in front of the king, but Yahweh made the king stubborn, and he did not let the Israeli people leave his country.
Ọ bụ ezie na Mosis na Erọn mere ihe ebube ndị a nʼihu Fero, ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero sie ike, ka ọ hapụ ikwe ka ụmụ Izrel si nʼala ya pụọ.
