< 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.
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ani amma illee dhaʼicha tokko Faraʼoonii fi Gibxitti nan fida. Ergasii inni asii isin baasa; yeroo asii isin baasutti immoo inni guutumaan guutuutti isin ariʼa.
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.”
Akka tokkoon tokkoon dhiiraatii fi tokkoon tokkoon dubartii ollaa isaanii irraa miʼa meetiitii fi miʼa warqee ergifatan saba kanatti himi.”
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.
Waaqayyo akka sabni Israaʼel fuula warra Gibxi duratti surraa argatan godhe; kana malees Museen biyya Gibxi keessatti, fuula qondaaltota Faraʼooniitii fi fuula saba Gibxi duratti akka malee ulfina qabeessa ture.
4 Then Moses/I [went to the king and] said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘About midnight [tonight] I will go throughout Egypt,
Museen akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Ani gara halkan walakkaatti Gibxi hunda keessa nan darba.
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.
Ilma Faraʼoon namicha teessoo irra taaʼu sanaa hangafaa jalqabee hamma ilma xomboree ishee midhaan daaktu sanaa hangafaatti ilmi hangafni biyya Gibxi keessaa hundi ni duʼa; akkasumas hangafni horii hundi ni duʼa.
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.
Biyya Gibxi guutuu keessattis wawwaachuu guddaan takkumaa dhagaʼamee hin beekin yookaan deebiʼees hin dhagaʼamne tokko ni dhufa.
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.
Garuu saba Israaʼel keessaa nama tokkotti iyyuu yookaan horii tokkotti iyyuu sareen tokko iyyuu hin duttu.’ Isinis waan kanaan akka Waaqayyo Gibxii fi Israaʼel gidduutti garaa garummaa fidu ni beektu.
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.
Qondaaltonni kee kunneen hundinuu gara koo dhufanii naa sagadan; ‘Atis, namoonni si duukaa buʼan hundinuus deemaa!’ jedhu; anis ergasii nan deema.” Museenis akka malee aaree Faraʼoon biraa baʼe.
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.”
Waaqayyo Museedhaan, “Akka dinqiin koo biyya Gibxitti baayʼatuuf Faraʼoon isin dhagaʼuu dida” jedhe.
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.
Musee fi Aroonis dinqiiwwan kanneen hunda fuula Faraʼoon duratti hojjetan; Waaqayyo garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa godhe; innis akka Israaʼeloonni biyya isaa keessaa hin baane dhowwe.
