Exodus 6
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh. You will see this, for he will let them go because of my strong hand. Because of my strong hand, he will drive them out of his land.”
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩũkuona ũrĩa ngwĩka Firaũni: Nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya-rĩ, nĩakamarekereria mathiĩ; na ningĩ nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya, nĩakamaingata moime bũrũri wake.”
2 God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am Yahweh.
Ngai agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova.
3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty; but by my name, Yahweh, I was not known to them.
Nĩ niĩ ndoimĩrĩire Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu ndĩ Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, no matiamenyire na rĩĩtwa rĩu rĩakwa Jehova.
4 I also established my covenant with them, in order to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as non-citizens, the land in which they wandered about.
O na nĩndathondekire kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao atĩ nĩngamahe bũrũri wa Kaanani, kũrĩa maatũũraga marĩ ageni.
5 Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites whom the Egyptians have enslaved, and I have called to mind my covenant.
Na makĩria-rĩ, nĩnjiguĩte gũcaaya kwa andũ a Isiraeli, arĩa matuĩtwo ngombo nĩ andũ a Misiri, na nĩndirikanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao.
6 Therefore, say to the Israelites, 'I am Yahweh. I will bring you out from slavery under the Egyptians, and I will free you from their power. I will rescue you with a display of my power, and with mighty acts of judgment.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, na nĩngamwaũra icooki rĩu mũigĩrĩirwo nĩ andũ a Misiri. Nĩngamuohora mũtige gũcooka gũtuĩka ngombo ciao, na nĩngamũkũũra ndambũrũkĩtie guoko na ciĩko nene cia ũtuanĩri ciira.
7 I will take you to myself as my people, and I will be your God. You will know that I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out from slavery under the Egyptians.
Ngaamuoya ta andũ akwa kĩũmbe, na nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu ũrĩa wamũrutire icooki-inĩ rĩa andũ a Misiri.
8 I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am Yahweh.'”
Na nĩngamũtwara bũrũri ũrĩa ndeeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nyambararĩtie guoko atĩ nĩngaahe Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu. Nĩguo ngũmũhe mũwĩgwatĩre ũtuĩke wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
9 When Moses told this to the Israelites, they would not listen to him because of their discouragement about their harsh slavery.
Musa agĩkĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, no matiamũiguire nĩ ũrĩa maakuĩte ngoro nĩkũhinyĩrĩrio nĩ ũkombo.
10 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
11 “Go tell Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to let the people of Israel go from his land.”
“Thiĩ wĩre Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri arekererie andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wake.”
12 Moses said to Yahweh, “If the Israelites have not listened to me, why will Pharaoh listen to me, since I am not good at speaking?”
No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo andũ a Isiraeli matingĩnjigua-rĩ, nĩkĩ kĩngĩtũma Firaũni anjigue, kuona njaragia ngĩtondoiraga?”
13 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron. He gave them a command for the Israelites and for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.
Ngai nĩacookire akĩaria na Musa na Harũni ũhoro wĩgiĩ andũ a Isiraeli na Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri na akĩmaatha marute andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wa Misiri.

26 These two men were the Aaron and Moses to whom Yahweh said, “Bring out the Israelites from the land of Egypt, by their groups of fighting men.”
Harũni o ũcio, marĩ na Musa, nĩo meerirwo nĩ Jehova atĩrĩ, “Rutai andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri kũringana na ikundi ciao.”
27 Aaron and Moses spoke to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to allow them bring out the Israelites from Egypt. These were the same Moses and Aaron.
Nĩo maarĩirie Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, ũhoro wa kũruta andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri. Maarĩ Musa o ũcio na Harũni.

Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jehova aarĩirie Musa arĩ kũu bũrũri wa Misiri-rĩ,

No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Kuona njaragia ngĩtondoiraga-rĩ, Firaũni angĩkĩnjigua nĩkĩ?”
