< Exodus 3 >

1 Now Moses was still shepherding the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. Moses led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and arrived at Horeb, the mountain of God.
Ana nan wata rana Musa yana kiwon tumakin Yetro surukinsa, firist na Midiyan, sai ya bi da tumaki zuwa gefe mai nisa a cikin hamada, har ya zo Horeb, dutsen Allah.
2 There the angel of Yahweh appeared to him in a flame of fire in a bush. Moses looked, and behold, the bush was burning, but the bush was not burned up.
A can mala’ikan Ubangiji ya bayyana a gare shi cikin harshen wuta, a ƙaramin itace. Musa ya lura cewa ko da yake wuta na ci ƙaramin itacen, amma bai ƙone ba.
3 Moses said, “I will turn aside and see this amazing thing, why the bush is not burned up.”
Sai Musa ya ce, “Wannan abin mamaki ne, don me wannan itace bai ƙone ba? Bari in matso kusa in gani.”
4 When Yahweh saw that he had turned aside to look, God called to him out of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses.” Moses said, “Here I am.”
Da Ubangiji ya ga Musa ya matso don yă duba, sai Allah ya yi kira daga cikin ƙaramin itacen ya ce, “Musa! Musa!” Sai Musa ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
5 God said, “Do not come any closer! Take off your shoes from your feet, for the place where you are standing is ground that is set apart to me.”
Allah ya ce, “Kada ka zo kusa, tuɓe takalmanka, gama inda kake tsaye, wuri ne mai tsarki.”
6 He added, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Then Moses covered his face, for he was afraid to look at God.
Sai Allah ya ce, “Ni ne Allah na kakanninka, Allah na Ibrahim, Allah na Ishaku da kuma Allah na Yaƙub.” Da jin wannan, sai Musa ya ɓoye fuskarsa, domin ya ji tsoro yă dubi Allah.
7 Yahweh said, “I have certainly seen the suffering of my people who are in Egypt. I have heard their shouts because of their taskmasters, for I know about their suffering.
Ubangiji ya ce, “Tabbatacce na ga azabar mutanena a Masar. Na ji su suna kuka saboda matsin da shugabannin gandunsu suke musu, na kuma damu da wahalarsu.
8 I have come down to free them from the Egyptians' power and to bring them up from that land to a good, large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the region of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Saboda haka na sauko domin in cece su daga hannun Masarawa, in kuma fitar da su daga ƙasar Masar, in kai su ƙasa mai kyau mai fāɗi, ƙasa mai zub da madara da zuma, inda Kan’aniyawa, Hittiyawa, Amoriyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da Yebusiyawa suke.
9 Now the shouts of the people of Israel have come to me. Moreover, I have seen the oppression caused by the Egyptians.
Yanzu kukan Isra’ilawa ya kai gare ni, na kuma ga yadda Masarawa suke wulaƙanta su
10 Now then, I will send you to Pharaoh so that you may bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.”
To, fa, sai ka tafi. Ina aikan ka wurin Fir’auna don ka fitar da mutanena Isra’ilawa daga Masar.”
11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites from Egypt?”
Amma Musa ya ce wa Allah, “Wane ni in tafi wurin Fir’auna, in kuma fitar da Isra’ilawa daga Masar?”
12 God replied, “I will certainly be with you. This will be a sign to you that I have sent you. When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship me on this mountain.”
Sai Allah ya ce, “Zan kasance da tare kai. Wannan kuwa za tă zama alama a gare ka cewa Ni na aike ka. Bayan ka fitar da mutanen daga Masar, za ku yi sujada ga Allah a kan dutsen nan.”
13 Moses said to God, “When I go to the Israelites and tell them, 'The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,' and when they say to me, 'What is his name?' what should I say to them?”
Musa ya ce wa Allah, “A ce ma na tafi wurin Isra’ilawa na ce musu, ‘Allah na kakanninku ya aiko ni wurinku,’ in suka tambaye ni, ‘Mene ne sunansa?’ Me zan ce?”
14 God said to Moses, “I AM THAT I AM.” God said, “You must say to the Israelites, 'I AM has sent me to you.'”
Allah ya ce wa Musa, “NI NE wanda NINE. Abin da za ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa ke nan cewa, ‘NI NE, ya aiko ni wurinku.’”
15 God also said to Moses, “You must say to the Israelites, 'Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is my name forever, and this is how I will be kept in mind for all generations.'
Allah ya kuma ce wa Musa, “Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa, ‘Ubangiji, Allah na kakanninka, Allah na Ibrahim, Allah na Ishaku da kuma Allah na Yaƙub, ya aiko ni wurinku.’ Wannan shi ne sunana har abada, sunan da za a tuna da ni daga tsara zuwa tsara ke nan.
16 Go and gather the elders of Israel together. Say to them, 'Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me and said, “I have indeed observed you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt.
“Tafi ka tattara dattawan Isra’ila, ka ce musu, ‘Ubangiji, Allah na kakanninku, Allah na Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub, ya bayyana a gare ni ya ce, Na lura da ku, na kuma ga abubuwan da ake yi muku a Masar.
17 I have promised to bring you up from the oppression in Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, a land flowing with milk and honey.”'
Na kuma yi alkawari, zan fitar da ku daga azabarku a Masar zuwa ƙasar Kan’aniyawa, Hittiyawa, Amoriyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da Yebusiyawa, ƙasa mai zub da madara da zuma.’
18 They will listen to you. You and the elders of Israel must go to the king of Egypt, and you must tell him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. So now let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, in order that we may sacrifice to Yahweh, our God.'
“Dattawan Isra’ila za su saurare ka. Sa’an nan da kai da dattawan Isra’ila, za ku tafi wurin sarkin Masar, ku ce masa, ‘Ubangiji, Allah na Ibraniyawa, ya sadu da mu. Bari mu yi tafiyar kwana uku zuwa cikin hamada domin mu yi hadaya wa Ubangiji Allahnmu.’
19 But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go, unless his hand is forced.
Amma na san cewa sarkin Masar ba zai yarda ku tafi ba, sai hannu mai ƙarfi ya tilasta shi.
20 I will reach out with my hand and attack the Egyptians with all the miracles that I will do among them. After that, he will let you go.
Saboda haka zan miƙa hannuna in bugi Masarawa da duk al’ajaban da zan aikata a cikinsu. Bayan haka zai bar ku, ku tafi.
21 I will grant this people favor from the Egyptians, so when you leave, you will not go empty-handed.
“Zan kuma sa mutanen su sami tagomashi daga wurin Masarawa, saboda sa’ad da za ku fita, ba za ku fita hannu wofi ba.
22 Every woman will ask for silver and gold jewels and for clothing from her Egyptian neighbors and any women staying in her neighbors' houses. You will put them on your sons and daughters. In this way you will plunder the Egyptians.”
Kowace mace ta tambayi maƙwabciyarta, da kuma duk wata macen da take cikin gidanta, kayayyakin azurfa da na zinariya da kuma na riguna, waɗanda za ku sa wa’ya’yanku maza da mata. Ta haka nan za ku washe Masarawa.”
