Exodus 7
1 The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ilaa, ani Faraʼooniif waaqa si godheera; obboleessi kee Aroon immoo raajii siif taʼa.
2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
Ati waan ani si ajaju hunda ni dubbata; obboleessi kee Aroon immoo akka inni Israaʼeloota biyya isaa keessaa gad dhiisu Faraʼoonitti ni hima.
3 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
Ani garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa nan godha; yoo ani biyya Gibxi keessatti mallattoowwanii fi dinqiiwwan koo baayʼise iyyuu,
4 But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgements.
inni isin hin dhaggeeffatu. Ani harka koo Gibxi irratti ol nan kaasa; murtii jabaadhaanis raayyaa koo, saba Israaʼel biyya Gibxi keessaa nan baasa.
5 The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring the children of Israel out from amongst them.”
Warri Gibxi yommuu ani harka koo Gibxi irratti ol kaafadhee saba Israaʼel achi keessaa baasutti akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
6 Moses and Aaron did so. As the LORD commanded them, so they did.
Musee fi Aroonis akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje godhan.
7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Yeroo Faraʼoonitti dubbatanitti Museen nama waggaa saddeettama ture; Aroon immoo nama waggaa saddeettamii sadii ture.
8 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;
9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Perform a miracle!’ then you shall tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will become a serpent.’”
“Yommuu Faraʼoon, ‘Dinqii hojjedhaa’ isiniin jedhutti, ati immoo Arooniin, ‘Ulee kee fuudhiitii fuula Faraʼoon duratti lafa buusi’ jetta; uleen sunis bofa taʼa.”
10 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as the LORD had commanded. Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
Musee fi Aroon Faraʼoon bira dhaqanii akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje sana godhan. Aroon fuula Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltota isaa duratti ulee isaa lafa buuse; uleen sunis bofa taate.
11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.
Faraʼoonis beektotaa fi falfaltoota ofitti waame; tolfattoonni Gibxi ogummaa isaanii dhokataa sanaan akkasuma godhan.
12 For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents; but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii ulee isaanii lafa buusan; uleen isaaniis bofa taʼe. Uleen Aroon garuu ulee isaanii liqimsite.
13 Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
Taʼus Faraʼoon akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana mata jabeessa taʼee isaan dhaggeeffachuu dide.
14 The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.
Kana irratti Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Faraʼoon mata jabeessa taʼeera; saba sanas gad dhiisuu dide.
15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he is going out to the water. You shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. You shall take the rod which was turned to a serpent in your hand.
Ganamaan gara Faraʼoon dhaqi; kunoo inni bishaanitti gad baʼa. Ulee bofatti geeddaramte sana harkatti qabadhuutii qarqara laga Abbayyaatti isa eegi.
16 You shall tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness. Behold, until now you haven’t listened.”
Akkanas jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Ibrootaa akkana jedhee sitti na ergeera: Akka sabni koo dhaqee gammoojjii keessatti naaf sagaduuf gad lakkisi. Ati garuu hamma ammaatti ajajamuu diddeerta.
17 The LORD says, “In this you shall know that I am the LORD. Behold: I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ati kanaan beekta: Kunoo ani ulee harka koo keessa jiru kanaan bishaan Abbayyaa nan dhaʼa; bishaan sunis dhiigatti geeddarama.
18 The fish that are in the river will die and the river will become foul. The Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the river.”’”
Qurxummiiwwan laga Abbayyaa keessaa ni duʼu; lagni sunis ni ajaaʼa; warri Gibxis bishaan laga sanaa dhuguu hin dandaʼan.’”
19 The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood. There will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”
Waaqayyo immoo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Arooniin akkana jedhi; ‘Ulee kee qabadhuutii bishaanota Gibxi irratti, lageen isaanii irratti, doloolloo isaanii irratti, haroo isaaniitii fi kuusaa bishaanii hunda irratti harka kee diriirsi.’ Isaanis dhiigatti geeddaramu. Gibxi guutuun dhiigaan guutama; qodaan mukaatii fi okkoteen dhagaa dhiigaan guutaman.”
20 Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
Musee fi Aroon akkuma Waaqayyo isaan ajaje sana godhan. Aroon ulee isaa ol fuudhee fuula Faraʼooniitii fi qondaaltota isaa duratti bishaan Abbayyaa dhaʼe; bishaan sun hundis dhiigatti geeddarame.
21 The fish that were in the river died. The river became foul. The Egyptians couldn’t drink water from the river. The blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
Qurxummiiwwan Abbayyaa duunaan lagichi ajaaʼe; warri Gibxis bishaan isaa dhuguu hin dandeenye. Gibxi guutuunis dhiigaan guutame.
22 The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
Garuu tolfattoonni Gibxi tolcha isaaniitiin akkasuma hojjetan; Faraʼoonis mata jabeessa taʼe. Innis akkuma Waaqayyo jedhe sana Musee fi Aroon dhagaʼuu dide.
23 Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and he didn’t even take this to heart.
Faraʼoonis deebiʼee masaraa isaa seene; innis waan kana yaadatti illee hin qabanne.
24 All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn’t drink the river water.
Warri Gibxi hundi waan bishaan laga sanaa dhuguu hin dandaʼiniif bishaan dhugaatii baafachuuf jedhanii qarqara Abbayyaa qotatan.
25 Seven days were fulfilled, after the LORD had struck the river.
Erga Waaqayyo Abbayyaan dhaʼee guyyaan torba darbe.
