< Exodus 1 >

1 These are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt with Jacob, each with his household:
Israeli ne' mofavre naga'mo'za a'mofavre zamine Isipima nezmafa Jekopu'enema vu'naza naga'mokizmi zamagi'a ama'ne,
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
Rubeni'ma, Simioni'ma, Levi'ma Juda'ma,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
Isaka'ma, Zebuluni'ma, Benzamini'ma,
4 Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
Dani'ma Naftali'ma, Gati ene Asa'e.
5 All the people who were descendants of Jacob were seventy in number. Joseph was already in Egypt.
Hagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'nege'za, Jekopumpinti fore'ma hu'naza nagara maka 70'a naga'mo'za vu'naze. Hianagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'ne.
6 Then Joseph, all his brothers, and all that generation died.
Hagi Josefe'ene ana maka afu'aganahe'zane ana knafima magokama vu'naza naga'a fri vagare'naze.
7 The Israelites were fruitful, increased greatly in numbers, and became very strong; the land was filled with them.
Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za mofavrea kase'za eri hakare hazageno, tusi hankvenentake vahe fore hu'za Isipi mopa mani avite'naze.
8 Now then a new king arose over Egypt, one who did not know about Joseph.
Hagi henka Josefe'ma hu'nea zantmima keno antahino osu'nea ne'mo, Isipia kasefa kini efore huno kegava hu'ne.
9 He said to his people, “Look, the Israelites are more numerous and stronger than we are.
Ana kini ne'mo'a vahe'agura amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Keho, Israeli vahe'mo'za tagrira tagatere'za, rama'a vahe fore nehazageno, hankave zamimo'a tagatenere.
10 Come, let us deal with them wisely, otherwise they will continue to grow in numbers, and if war breaks out, they will join our enemies, fight against us, and leave the land.”
E'ina hu'negu enketa mago'a kanku haketa zamazeri haviza hanunke'za vahera fore huhakarea osnaze. Ha'ma fore hanige'za, ha' vahetirega ante'za ha' hunerante'za kumatia atre'za vugahaze.
11 So they put taskmasters over them to oppress them with hard labor. The Israelites built store cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Rameses.
Anage hige'za, kazokzo eri'za kva vahe zamazeri otizageno, Isipi kini ne' Fero'ma fenoma antesnia rankumatre, Pitomu kuma'ene, Rameses kuma'enena Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza nehazage'za ki'naze.
12 But the more the Egyptians oppressed them, the more the Israelites increased in numbers and spread. So the Egyptians began to dread the Israelites.
Tusiza hu'za Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza hazanagi, mago'ane rupazi hu'za rama'a nehazageno, Isipi vahe'mo'za Israeli vahekura koro huzmante'naze.
13 The Egyptians made the Israelites work rigorously.
Israeli vahera zamasunkura huozmantage'za eri'zana hanaveti'za eri'naze.
14 They made their lives bitter with hard service with mortar and brick, and with all kinds of work in the fields. All their required work was hard.
Tusi'a eri'za fukinteti briki trohu eri'zane, hozafi eri'zane mago'a eri'za zami'za, nomani'zazmia tusiza hu'za zamazeri amuho hazage'za zamarimpa akahezampi mani'naze.
15 Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives; the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the other Puah.
Anante Isipi kini ne'mo'a, Hibru a'ne'mo'zama mofavre'ma kasenteku'ma nehzageno zamazama hukema kse nezmia Hibru a'trena, Sifrane Puagiznia amanage huno znasmi'ne,
16 He said, “When you assist the Hebrew women on the birthstool, observe when they give birth. If it is a son, then you must kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she may live.”
Hibru ane'mozama mofavrema kasentenaku'ma nehanageta zamaza hutama kasezmantesuta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma, zmatrenke'za maniho, hagi ne'mofavrema kasezmantesageta zamahe friho.
17 But the midwives feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt ordered them; instead, they let the baby boys live.
Hianagi ana a'tre'mokea Anumzamofonku koro nehuke, Isipi kini ne'mo'ma hanave kema huno'ma ne' mofavre'ramima zamahe frihoma hu'neana, zamahe ofri zmatrege'za mani'naze.
18 The king of Egypt summoned the midwives and said to them, “Why have you done this, and let the baby boys live?”
Ana higeno Izipi kini ne'mo'a ana a'trena ke higeke akeno anage huno znantahige'ne, Na'a higetna ne' mofavre'rmina zamahe ofrita zmatrake'za mani'naze?
19 The midwives answered Pharaoh, “The Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women. They are vigorous and have finished giving birth before a midwife comes to them.”
Mofavrema zamaza huke kasezmi a'tre'mokea amanage huke Ferona kenona'a hunte'na'e, Hibru a'ne'mo'za zamagra Isipi a'negnara osu'za hanavenentake hu'nazanki'za, uohanati'nonke'za hanatinonke'za ame'ama hu'za mofavrea kasenentaze.
20 God protected these midwives. The people increased in numbers and became very strong.
Ana higeno Anumzamo'a mofavrema zamazama huke kasezami a'tre'na knare huznantegeno, Israeli vahera kase hakare hazage'za hanavenentake vahetami rama'a fore hu'za vu'naze.
21 Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.
Ana a'tremokea Anumzamofonku koro nehaku huno Anumzamo'a asomu huznantegeke znagranena agafa huke mofavre kasente'na'e.
22 Pharaoh ordered all his people, “You must throw every son that is born into the river, but every daughter you will let live.”
Anante Fero'a ana maka Isipi vahe'a amanage huno hanavenentake ke huzmante'ne, Hibru a'nemo'zama ne' mofavrema kasezmantesazana, zmavaretma Naeli timpi matevu nezmatreta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma ozmahe zmatrenke'za maniho.
