< Exodus 2 >

1 Aftir these thingis a man of `the hows of Leuy yede out, and took a wijf of his kyn,
Basi mtu mmoja wa nyumba ya Lawi akaoa mwanamke Mlawi,
2 which conseyuede, and childide a sone. And sche seiy hym wel farynge, and hidde him bi thre monethis.
naye mwanamke huyo akapata mimba, akazaa mtoto wa kiume. Alipoona mtoto huyo ni mzuri, akamficha kwa miezi mitatu.
3 And whanne sche myyte not hele, thanne sche took a `leep of segge, and bawmede it with tar and pitch, and puttide the yong child with ynne, and puttide hym forth in a `place of spier of the brenke of the flood,
Lakini alipoona hawezi kumficha zaidi, akamtengenezea kisafina cha mafunjo, akakipaka lami. Kisha akamweka huyo mtoto ndani yake, akakificha katikati ya matete kando ya ukingo wa Mto Naili.
4 the while his sistir stood afer, and bihelde the bifalling of the thing.
Dada ya huyo mtoto akasimama mbali ili kuona kitakachompata mtoto.
5 Lo! forsothe the douytir of Farao cam doun to be waischun in the flood, and hir damysels walkiden bi the brenke of the flood. And whanne sche hadde seyn a leep in the `place of spier, sche sente oon of hir seruauntessis,
Ndipo binti Farao akateremka mtoni Naili kuoga, nao wahudumu wake wakawa wanatembea ukingoni mwa mto. Binti mfalme akaona kisafina katikati ya manyasi, akamtuma mmoja wa watumwa wake wa kike kukichukua.
6 and sche openyde the leep brouyt to hir, and seiy a litil child wepynge ther ynne. And sche hadde mercy on the child, and seide, It is of the yonge children of Ebrews.
Alifungua kisafina akaona mtoto ndani yake. Mtoto alikuwa akilia, akamhurumia. Akasema, “Huyu ni mmoja wa watoto wa Kiebrania.”
7 To whom the `sister of the child seide, Wolt thou that Y go, and clepe to thee an Ebrew womman, that may nurische the yong child?
Ndipo dada wa huyo mtoto akamuuliza binti Farao, “Je, niende nikakutafutie mmoja wa wanawake wa Kiebrania akulelee huyu mtoto?”
8 She answeride, Go thou. The damysel yede, and clepide the `modir of the child.
Binti Farao akamjibu, “Ndiyo, nenda.” Yule msichana akaenda akamleta mama wa mtoto.
9 To whom `the douytir of Farao spak, and seide, Take thou this child, and nurische to me; Y schal yyue to thee thi mede. The womman took, and nurischide the child, and bitook hym woxun to `the douytir of Farao,
Binti Farao akamwambia, “Mchukue huyu mtoto unisaidie kumlea, nami nitakulipa.” Basi yule mwanamke akamchukua mtoto na kumlea.
10 whom sche purchaside `in to the place of sone; and sche clepide his name Moises, and seide, For Y took hym fro the watir.
Mtoto alipokua, akampeleka kwa binti Farao, naye akawa mwanawe. Akamwita jina lake Mose akisema, “Nilimtoa kwenye maji.”
11 In tho daies, aftir that Moises encreesside, he yede out to hise britheren, and seiy the turment of hem, and a man Egipcian smytynge `oon of Ebrews, hise britheren.
Siku moja, baada ya Mose kukua, akaondoka kwenda walikokuwa watu wake, na akachunguza jinsi walivyokuwa wakifanya kazi ngumu. Akamwona Mmisri akimpiga Mwebrania, mmojawapo wa watu wake.
12 And whanne he hadde biholdun hidur and thidir, and hadde seyn, that no man was present, he killide the Egipcian, and hidde in soond.
Mose akatazama huku na huko asione mtu yeyote, akamuua yule Mmisri, akamficha mchangani.
13 And he yede out in another dai, and seiy tweyne Ebrews chidynge, and he seide to hym that dide wrong, Whi smytist thou thi brother?
Kesho yake akatoka, akaona Waebrania wawili wakipigana. Akamuuliza yule aliyekosa, “Mbona unampiga Mwebrania mwenzako?”
14 Which answeride, Who ordeynede thee prince, ether iuge on vs? Whether thou wolt sle me, as thou killidist yisterdai the Egipcian? Moises dredde, and seide, Hou is this word maad opun?
Yule mtu akamjibu, “Ni nani aliyekufanya mtawala na mwamuzi juu yetu? Je, unataka kuniua kama ulivyomuua yule Mmisri?” Ndipo Mose akaogopa na kuwaza, “Jambo lile nililofanya lazima limefahamika.”
15 And Farao herde this word, and souyte to sle Moyses, which fledde fro his siyt, and dwellide in the lond of Madian, and sat bisidis a pit.
Farao aliposikia jambo hili, alijaribu kumuua Mose, lakini Mose akamkimbia Farao na kwenda kuishi katika nchi ya Midiani, akaketi kando ya kisima.
16 Forsothe seuene douytris weren to the preest of Madian, that camen to drawe watir; and whanne the trouyis weren fillid, thei coueitiden to watere `the flockis of her fadir.
Kuhani wa Midiani alikuwa na binti saba, nao wakaja kisimani ili kuchota maji na kujaza hori kwa ajili ya kunyweshea mifugo ya baba yao.
17 Scheepherdis camen aboue, and dreuen hem awei; and Moises roos, and defendide the dameselis; and he watride `the scheep of hem.
Baadhi ya wachungaji wakaja wakawafukuza hao wasichana. Ndipo Mose akainuka, akawasaidia na kunywesha mifugo yao.
18 And whanne thei hadden turned ayen to Jetro, her fadir, he seide to hem, Whi camen ye swiftliere than ye weren wont?
Hao wasichana waliporudi nyumbani kwa Reueli baba yao, akawauliza, “Imekuwaje leo mmerudi mapema hivyo?”
19 Thei answeriden, A man of Egipt delyuerede vs fro the hond of scheepherdis; ferthermore and he drow watir with vs, and yaf drynk to the scheep.
Wakamjibu, “Mmisri mmoja alituokoa kutoka mikononi mwa wachungaji. Pia mtu huyo alituchotea maji na kunywesha mifugo.”
20 And he seide, Where is that man? whi leften ye the man? clepe ye hym, that he ete breed.
Akawauliza binti zake, “Yuko wapi? Mbona mmemwacha? Mkaribisheni ale chakula.”
21 Therfor Moises swoor, that he wolde dwelle with Jetro; and he took a wijf, Sefora, `the douyter of Jetro.
Mose akakubali kukaa kwa huyo mtu, ambaye alimpa Mose binti yake aliyeitwa Sipora amwoe.
22 And sche childide a sone to hym, whom he clepide Gersan, and seide, Y was a comelyng in an alyen lond. Forsothe sche childide an othir sone, whom he clepide Eliezer, and seide, For God of my fadir is myn helpere, and delyuerede me fro the hond of Farao.
Sipora alizaa mtoto wa kiume, naye Mose akamwita Gershomu, akisema, “Nimekuwa mgeni katika nchi ya kigeni.”
23 Forsothe aftir myche tyme the kyng of Egipt diede, and the sones of Israel inwardli weiliden for werkis, and crieden, and the cry of hem for werkis stiede to God.
Baada ya muda mrefu, mfalme wa Misri akafa. Waisraeli wakalia kwa huzuni katika utumwa wao, walilia na kilio chao cha kutaka msaada kwa ajili ya utumwa kikamfikia Mungu.
24 And he herde the weilyng of hem, and he hadde mynde of the boond of pees, which he hadde maad with Abraham, Ysaac, and Jacob; and he bihelde the sones of Israel,
Mungu akasikia kilio chao cha huzuni, akakumbuka Agano alilofanya na Abrahamu pamoja na Isaki na Yakobo.
25 and knewe hem.
Kwa hiyo Mungu akawaangalia Waisraeli na kuwahurumia.
