< Exodus 6 >
1 Then the LORD said to Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh; for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them from his land.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Ugbu a, ị ga-ahụ ihe m ga-eme Fero. Nʼihi ike aka m, ọ ga-ezipụ ha. Nʼihi ike aka, ọ ga-achụpụ ha site nʼala ya.”
2 And God spoke to Moses, and said to him, I [am] the LORD:
Chineke gara nʼihu gwa Mosis sị, “Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by [the name of] God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
Egosiri m Ebraham na Aịzik na Jekọb onwe m dịka Chineke, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile. Ma ọ dịghị mgbe m mere ka ha mata aha m dịka Onyenwe anyị.
4 And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they were strangers.
Emere m ka ọgbụgba ndụ m guzosie ike nʼetiti mụ na ha, ọgbụgba ndụ nke inye ha ala Kenan ebe ha biri dịka ndị ọbịa.
5 And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage: and I have remembered my covenant.
Ugbu a, anụla m ịsụ ude ụmụ Izrel, bụ ndị ahụ ndị Ijipt mere ka ha bụrụ ndị ohu. Echetakwala m ọgbụgba ndụ m.
6 Wherefore say to the children of Israel, I [am] the LORD, and I will bring you from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with out-stretched arm, and with great judgments:
“Ya mere, gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Abụ m Onyenwe anyị. Aga m akpọpụta unu site nʼọnọdụ ịbụ ohu ndị Ijipt. Aga m eme ka unu nwere onwe unu site nʼọnọdụ ịbụ ndị ohu nye ha. Aga m eji aka ike m nke m ga-esetipụ, ya na ihe ngosipụta dị ukwuu nke ikpe ikpe m, gbapụta unu.
7 And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD your God, who bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
Mgbe ahụ, aga m ewere unu ka unu bụrụ ndị m. Aga m abụ Chineke unu. Unu ga-amata na m bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye kpọpụtara unu site nʼaka ịbụ ohu nʼala Ijipt.
8 And I will bring you into the land, concerning which I swore to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: I [am] the LORD.
Aga m akpọbata unu nʼala ahụ m weliri aka m elu, ṅụọ nʼiyi, nye Ebraham, na Aịzik, na Jekọb, ime ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.’”
9 And Moses spoke so to the children of Israel: but they hearkened not to Moses, by reason of anguish of spirit, and cruel bondage.
Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel ihe ndị a, ma ha egeghị ntị nʼihi ịda mba nke obi ha na ahụhụ sitere na ndọgbu nʼọrụ ha.
10 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu ọzọ sị,
11 Go in, speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel depart from his land.
“Gaa gwa Fero eze Ijipt, ka ọ hapụ ụmụ Izrel ka ha pụọ nʼala ya.”
12 And Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened to me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who [am] of uncircumcised lips?
Mosis kwuru nʼihu Onyenwe anyị sị, “Mgbe ụmụ Izrel na-aṅaghị m ntị, olee otu Fero ga-esi ṅaa m ntị? Nke ka nke, enweghị m ike ikwu okwu nke ọma.”
13 And the LORD spoke to Moses, and to Aaron, and gave them a charge to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
