Exodus 3
1 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, [even] to Horeb.
Museen bushaayee abbaa niitii isaa Yetroo lubicha Midiyaan sanaa tiksaa ture; innis gaaf tokko hamma dhiʼa lafa gammoojjiitti bushaayee sana oofee gara tulluu Waaqaa gara Kooreeb dhufe.
2 And the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush [was] not consumed.
Achittis Ergamaan Waaqayyoo daggala bobaʼu keessaa arraba ibiddaa keessaan isatti mulʼate. Museenis daggalli sun bobaʼu illee akka hin gubatin arge.
3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt.
Museenis, “Daggalli kun maaliif hin gubatu laata? Ani itti goree waan dinqisiisaa kana ilaaluu qaba” jedhe.
4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here [am] I.
Waaqayyos yommuu akka Museen ilaaluuf achi gore argetti, Waaqni daggala sana keessaa, “Musee! Musee!” jedhee isa waame. Museenis, “Kunoo ani asan jira” jedhee deebise.
5 And he said, Approach not hither: put off thy shoes from thy feet, for the place on which thou standest [is] holy ground.
Waaqni immoo, “As hin dhiʼaatin; Sababii iddoon ati dhaabatu kun qulqulluu taʼeef kophee kee baafadhu” jedheen.
6 Moreover he said, I [am] the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face: for he was afraid to look upon God.
Itti fufees, “Ani Waaqa abbaa keetii, Waaqa Abrahaam, Waaqa Yisihaaqii fi Waaqa Yaaqoob” jedhe. Kana irratti Museen Waaqa ilaaluu waan sodaateef fuula isaa dhokfate.
7 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people who [are] in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their task-masters; for I know their sorrows;
Waaqayyo akkana jedhe; “Ani dhugumaan dhiphina saba koo warra Gibxi keessa jiraatan irra gaʼu argeera. Iyya isaan warra humnaan isaan hojjechiisan jalaa baʼuuf iyyanis dhagaʼeera; ani rakkina isaaniis nan beeka.
8 And I am come down to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land, to a good land, and a large, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
Kanaafuu ani harka warra Gibxiitii isaan baasee gara biyya gaarii fi balʼaatti, biyya aannanii fi dammi keessaa burquutti jechuunis gara biyya Kanaʼaanotaatti, Heetotaatti, Amoorotaatti, Feerzotaatti, Hiiwotaattii fi Yebuusotaatti ol isaan baasuuf jedhee gad buʼeera.
9 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come to me: and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
Amma kunoo iyyi Israaʼelootaa na bira gaʼeera. Ani haala itti warri Gibxi isaan cunqursanis argeera.
10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee to Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
Kanaafuu ati amma dhaqi. Ani akka ati saba koo Israaʼeloota Gibxi keessaa baaftuuf Faraʼoonitti sin erga.”
11 And Moses said to God, Who [am] I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
Museen garuu Waaqaan, “Faraʼoon bira dhaqee Gibxii Israaʼeloota baasuuf ani eenyu?” jedhe.
12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this [shall be] a token to thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
Waaqnis akkana jedhe; “Ani si wajjin nan taʼa. Ati saba sana Gibxii yommuu baaftutti isin tulluu kana irratti Waaqa waaqeffattu. Si erguu kootiifis kun mallattoo siif taʼa.”
13 And Moses said to God, Behold, [when] I come to the children of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of your fathers hath sent me to you; and they shall say to me, What [is] his name? What shall I say to them?
Museen immoo Waaqaan, “Kunoo ani gara Israaʼelootaa dhaqee, ‘Waaqni abbaa keessanii na ergeera’ yommun jedhutti yoo isaan, ‘Maqaan isaa eenyu?’ jedhanii na gaafatan, ani maal jedheen isaanitti hima?” jedhe.
14 And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM: And he said, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me to you.
Waaqnis Museedhaan, “ANI ANUMA; ati saba Israaʼeliin, ‘Inni ANI ANUMA jedhu sun gara keessanitti na ergeera’ jedhi” jedheen.
15 And God said, moreover, to Moses, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me to you: this [is] my name for ever, and this [is] my memorial to all generations.
Waaqni ammas Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii, Waaqni Abrahaam, Waaqni Yisihaaq, Waaqni Yaaqoob isinitti na ergeera.’ “Maqaan kun bara baraan maqaa koo ti; maqaa ani dhalootaa hamma dhalootaatti ittiin yaadatamuu dha.
16 Go and assemble the elders of Israel, and say to them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, I have surely visited you, and [seen] that which is done to you in Egypt.
“Dhaqii maanguddoota Israaʼel walitti qabiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii, Waaqni Abrahaam, kan Yisihaaqii fi kan Yaaqoob natti mulʼatee akkana jedhe: “Ani isin ilaaleera; waan Gibxitti isin irra gaʼes argeera.
17 And I have said, I will bring you out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
Kanaafuu ani rakkina Gibxi keessaa isin baasee biyya aannanii fi dammi keessaa burqu jechuunis biyya Kanaʼaanotaa, Heetotaa, Amoorotaa, Feerzotaa, Hiiwotaatii fi biyya Yebuusotaatti isin geessuuf murteesseera.”’
18 And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and ye shall say to him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go (we beseech thee) three days journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
“Maanguddoonni Israaʼel si dhagaʼu. Atii fi maanguddoonni Israaʼel mootii Gibxi bira dhaqxanii, ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Ibrootaa nutti mulʼateera; egaa amma akka nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaaf aarsaa dhiʼeessinuuf gara gammoojjiitti karaa guyyaa sadii nuu eeyyami’ jettuun.
19 And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty hand.
Garuu akka mootiin Gibxi yoo irreen jabaan isa dirqisiise malee deemuuf isinii hin eeyyamne anuu beeka.
20 And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.
Ani dinqii isaan gidduutti hojjedhu hundaan irree koo hiixadhee namoota Gibxi nan dhaʼa. Ergasii inni akka deemtan isiniif eeyyama.
21 And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that when ye go, ye shall not go empty:
“Anis akka sabni kun fuula warra Gibxi duratti surraa argatu nan godha; isinis yommuu Gibxii baatanitti harka duwwaa hin baatan.
22 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbor, and of her that dwelleth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put [them] upon your sons, and upon your daughters: and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
Tokkoon tokkoon dubartii miʼa meetii, miʼa warqeetii fi uffata gaafattee ollaa isheettii fi dubartii mana ishee jiraattu irraa haa fudhattu; kanaanis ilmaanii fi intallan keessanitti uffiftu. Akkasiinis qabeenya warra Gibxi boojitanii baatu.”
