< Exodus 14 >

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.
“Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí wọn padà sẹ́yìn, kí wọ́n sì pàgọ́ sí tòsí Pi-Hahirotu láàrín Migdoli òun Òkun, kí wọn kí ó pàgọ́ sí ẹ̀bá Òkun, ní òdìkejì Baali-Ṣefoni.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.’
Farao yóò ronú pé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń ráre káàkiri ní ìdààmú ni àti wí pé aginjù náà ti sé wọn mọ́.
4 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honour over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD.” They did so.
Èmi yóò sé ọkàn Farao le ti yóò fi lépa wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò gba ògo fún ará mi láti ìpàṣẹ Farao àti ogun rẹ̀, àti pé àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa.” Àwọn Israẹli sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
5 The king of Egypt was told that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, “What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?”
Nígbà tí wọ́n sọ fún ọba Ejibiti pé àwọn ènìyàn náà ti sálọ, ọkàn Farao àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ yí padà sí àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Kí ni ohun tí àwa ṣe yìí? Àwa ti jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí ó lọ, a sì ti pàdánù ìsìnrú wọn.”
6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;
Ó sì di kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀, ó sì kó àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀,
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, with captains over all of them.
ó mú ẹgbẹ̀ta ọmọ-ogun oníkẹ̀kẹ́ tí ó jáfáfá jùlọ àti gbogbo ọmọ-ogun oníkẹ̀kẹ́ mìíràn ní Ejibiti, olórí sì wà fún olúkúlùkù wọn.
8 The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
Olúwa sé ọkàn Farao ọba Ejibiti le, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí lépa àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti ń jáde lọ ní àìbẹ̀rù.
9 The Egyptians pursued them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
Àwọn ará Ejibiti ń lépa wọn pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹṣin kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun Farao àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀, wọ́n sì lé wọn bá ni ibi tí wọ́n pa àgọ́ sí lẹ́bàá òkun ní ìhà Pi-Hahirotu, ni òdìkejì Baali-Ṣefoni.
10 When Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to the LORD.
Bí Farao ti súnmọ́ tòsí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbé ojú wọn sókè, wọn sì rí àwọn ará Ejibiti tó súnmọ́ wọn. Ẹ̀rù ńlá sì bá àwọn ará Israẹli, wọ́n kígbe sókè sí Olúwa.
11 They said to Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us out of Egypt?
Wọ́n sọ fún Mose pé, “Ṣe nítorí pé kò sí ibojì ni Ejibiti ní ìwọ ṣe mú wa wá láti kú sínú aginjù? Kí ni èyí tí ìwọ ṣe sí wa ti ìwọ fi mú wa jáde láti Ejibiti wá?
12 Isn’t this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
Ǹjẹ́ èyí kọ́ ni àwa sọ fún ọ ni Ejibiti, ‘Fi wá sílẹ̀, jẹ́ kí àwa máa sin ará Ejibiti’? Nítorí kò bá sàn fún wa kí a sin àwọn ará Ejibiti ju kí a kú sínú aginjù yìí lọ!”
13 Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today.
Nígbà náà ni Mose sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ má bẹ̀rù, ẹ dúró ṣinṣin kí ẹ sì rí ìdáǹdè tí Olúwa yóò fi fún un yín lónìí, àwọn ará Ejibiti ti ẹ̀yin rí lónìí ni ẹ kò ni tún padà rí wọn mọ́.
14 The LORD will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
Olúwa yóò jà fún un yín; kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sá à mu sùúrù.”
15 The LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ké pè mí? Sọ fún àwọn ará Israẹli kí wọn máa tẹ̀síwájú.
16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground.
Ṣùgbọ́n, gbé ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sókè, kí o sì na ọwọ́ rẹ sí orí omi Òkun, kí ó lè pín ní yà kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lè la òkun kọjá ni orí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀.
17 Behold, I myself will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they will go in after them. I will get myself honour over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.
Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò sé ọkàn àwọn ará Ejibiti le, wọn yóò sì máa lépa wọn; Èmi yóò gba ògo fún ara mi lórí Farao; lórí gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti lórí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀.
18 The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD when I have gotten myself honour over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.”
Àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa nígbà ti èmi bá gba ògo fún ara mi lórí Farao: lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun rẹ̀ àti lórí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀.”
19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.
Nígbà náà ni angẹli Ọlọ́run tó ti ń ṣáájú ogun Israẹli lọ, padà o sì rìn ni ẹ̀yìn wọn; Òpó ìkùùkuu tí ń rìn ni iwájú wọn sì padà sí í rìn ni ẹ̀yìn wọn.
20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet it gave light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.
Ó sì wà láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ejibiti àti Israẹli. Ìkùùkuu sì ṣú òkùnkùn sí àwọn ará Ejibiti ni òru náà. Ṣùgbọ́n ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí àwọn Israẹli ni òru náà, ọ̀kan kò sì súnmọ́ èkejì ni gbogbo òru náà.
21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
Nígbà náà ni Mose na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí orí Òkun, ni gbogbo òru náà ni Olúwa fi lé òkun sẹ́yìn pẹ̀lú ìjì líle láti ìlà-oòrùn wá, ó sì sọ ọ́ di ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀. Omi òkun sì pínyà,
22 The children of Israel went into the middle of the sea on the dry ground; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì la ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ kọjá nínú òkun pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ní ọ̀tún àti òsì.
23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the middle of the sea: all of Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
Àwọn ará Ejibiti sì ń lépa wọn, gbogbo ẹṣin Farao, kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin rẹ̀ wọ́ tọ̀ wọ́n lọ sínú òkun.
24 In the morning watch, the LORD looked out on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and confused the Egyptian army.
Ní ìṣọ́ òwúrọ̀ Olúwa bojú wo ogun àwọn ará Ejibiti láàrín ọ̀wọ̀n iná àti ìkùùkuu, ó sì kó ìpayà bá àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ejibiti.
25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, “Let’s flee from the face of Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians!”
Ó sì yọ àgbá ẹsẹ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun wọn kí ó bá à le ṣòro fún wọn láti fi kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun náà rìn. Àwọn ará Ejibiti wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a sá àsálà kúrò ní iwájú àwọn ará Israẹli nítorí Olúwa ń bá wa jà nítorí wọn.”
26 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.”
Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Na ọwọ́ rẹ sí orí òkun kí omi òkun lè ya padà sórí àwọn ará Ejibiti, kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun wọn àti sórí ẹlẹ́ṣin wọn.”
27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it. The LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
Mose sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí orí òkun, òkun sì padà bọ́ sí ipò rẹ̀ nígbà ti ilẹ̀ mọ́. Àwọn ará Ejibiti ń sá fún omi òkun, Olúwa sì gbá wọn sínú òkun.
28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh’s army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.
Omi òkun sì ya padà, ó sì bo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin: àní, gbogbo ọmọ-ogun Farao tiwọn wọ inú òkun tọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ kò sí ọ̀kan nínú wọn tí ó yè.
29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Israẹli la òkun kọjá lórí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ògiri omi ni ọ̀tún àti òsì wọn.
30 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
Ni ọjọ́ yìí ni Olúwa gba Israẹli là kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Ejibiti; Israẹli sì rí òkú àwọn ará Ejibiti ni etí òkun.
31 Israel saw the great work which the LORD did to the Egyptians, and the people feared the LORD; and they believed in the LORD and in his servant Moses.
Nígbà ti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli rí iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá ti Olúwa ṣe fún wọn lára àwọn ará Ejibiti, àwọn ènìyàn bẹ̀rù Olúwa, wọ́n sì gba Olúwa àti Mose ìránṣẹ́ rẹ gbọ́.
