Exodus 5
1 And afterwards have Moses and Aaron entered, and they say unto Pharaoh, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Send My people away, and they keep a feast to Me in the wilderness;'
Thuutha-inĩ Musa na Harũni nĩmathiire kũrĩ Firaũni, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, oigĩte ũũ: ‘Reke andũ akwa mathiĩ, nĩgeetha makagĩe na gĩathĩ gĩakwa werũ-inĩ.’”
2 and Pharaoh saith, 'Who [is] Jehovah, that I hearken to His voice, to send Israel away? I have not known Jehovah, and Israel also I do not send away.'
Nake Firaũni akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩwe ũ, atĩ ndĩmwathĩkĩre na ndekererie andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ? Niĩ ndiũĩ Jehova na ndikũrekereria andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ.”
3 And they say, 'The God of the Hebrews hath met with us, let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to Jehovah our God, lest He meet us with pestilence or with sword.'
Ningĩ makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngai wa Ahibirania nĩatwarĩirie. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio twĩtĩkĩrie tũthiĩ rũgendo rwa mĩthenya ĩtatũ werũ-inĩ tũkarutĩre Jehova Ngai witũ magongona, kwaga ũguo no atũrehithĩrie mĩthiro kana atũniine na rũhiũ rwa njora.”
4 And the king of Egypt saith unto them, 'Why, Moses and Aaron, do ye free the people from its works? go to your burdens.'
No mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Musa na Harũni, nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mũrute andũ wĩra-inĩ wao? Cookai wĩra-inĩ wanyu!”
5 Pharaoh also saith, 'Lo, numerous now [is] the people of the land, and ye have caused them to cease from their burdens!'
Nake Firaũni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ta rorai, andũ a bũrũri rĩu nĩmaingĩhĩte, na inyuĩ nĩmũragiria marute wĩra.”
6 And Pharaoh commandeth, on that day, the exactors among the people and its authorities, saying,
Mũthenya o ũcio Firaũni agĩatha arũgamĩrĩri a ngombo o na nyabaara cia andũ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
7 'Ye do not add to give straw to the people for the making of the bricks, as heretofore — they go and have gathered straw for themselves;
“Mũtigacooke kũhe andũ a Isiraeli nyeki ya gũthondeka maturubarĩ; nĩmathiĩ magecarĩrie nyeki o ene.
8 and the proper quantity of the bricks which they are making heretofore ye do put on them, ye do not diminish from it, for they are remiss, therefore they are crying, saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to our God;
No mũmeere atĩ no nginya mathondeke maturubarĩ mũigana o ta wa mbere; mũtikamanyiihĩrie gĩthimo. Nĩ igũũta; nĩkĩo mararĩra makoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩtũrekwo tũthiĩ tũkarutĩre Ngai witũ igongona.’
9 let the service be heavy on the men, and let them work at it, and not be dazzled by lying words.'
Maritũhĩriei wĩra nĩgeetha makoragwo makĩruta wĩra hĩndĩ ciothe, na mũtige gũthikĩrĩria ũhoro wa maheeni.”
10 And the exactors of the people, and its authorities, go out, and speak unto the people, saying, 'Thus said Pharaoh, I do not give you straw,
Nao arũgamĩrĩri a ngombo na nyabaara cia andũ magĩthiĩ makĩĩra andũ atĩrĩ, “Firaũni ekuuga ũũ: ‘Ndigũcooka kũmũhe nyeki rĩngĩ.
11 ye — go ye, take for yourselves straw where ye find [it], for there is nothing of your service diminished.'
Thiĩi mũgecarĩrie nyeki yanyu kũrĩa guothe mũrĩmĩona, no wĩra wanyu ndũkũnyihanyiihio o na hanini.’”
12 And the people is scattered over all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ makĩhurunjũkĩra bũrũri wa Misiri guothe kũngania makoni ma ngano mamatũmĩre ta nyeki.
13 and the exactors are making haste, saying, 'Complete your works, the matter of a day in its day, as when there is straw.'
Arũgamĩrĩri a ngombo makĩmahinyĩrĩria mũno, makameeraga atĩrĩ, “Rĩĩkiai wĩra ũrĩa mwagĩrĩirwo wa o mũthenya, o ta ũrĩa mwekaga rĩrĩa mwaheagwo nyeki.”
14 And the authorities of the sons of Israel, whom the exactors of Pharaoh have placed over them, are beaten, saying, 'Wherefore have ye not completed your portion in making brick as heretofore, both yesterday and to-day?'
Nao andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ nyabaara arĩa maathuurĩtwo nĩ anene a ngombo a Firaũni magakĩhũũragwo, makoorio atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩragiririe mũhingie mũigana wa maturubarĩ ma ira kana ma ũmũthĩ, ta ũrĩa mũrekaga mbere?”
15 And the authorities of the sons of Israel come in and cry unto Pharaoh, saying, 'Why dost thou thus to thy servants?
Nao andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ nyabaara magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Firaũni kũmũthaitha, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ: “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte wĩke ndungata ciaku maũndũ maya?
16 Straw is not given to thy servants, and they are saying to us, Make bricks, and lo, thy servants are smitten — and thy people hath sinned.'
Ndungata ciaku itiraheo nyeki, na no tũrerwo, ‘Thondekai maturubarĩ!’ Ndungata ciaku nĩirahũũrwo, no andũ aku nĩo marĩ na mahĩtia.”
17 And he saith, 'Remiss — ye are remiss, therefore ye are saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to Jehovah;
Nake Firaũni agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Igũũta ici! Inyuĩ mũrĩ igũũta! Nĩkĩo mũraikara mũkiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩtũrekwo tũkarutĩre Jehova igongona.’
18 and now, go, serve; and straw is not given to you, and the measure of bricks ye do give.'
Cookai wĩra-inĩ. Mũtikũheo nyeki, na no nginya mũthondeke mũigana wa maturubarĩ marĩa mwagĩrĩirwo.”
19 And the authorities of the sons of Israel see them in affliction, saying, 'Ye do not diminish from your bricks; the matter of a day in its day.'
Nao andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ nyabaara makĩmenya atĩ maarĩ thĩĩna-inĩ rĩrĩa meerirwo atĩrĩ, “Mũtikũnyiihĩrio mũigana wa maturubarĩ marĩa mwagĩrĩirwo gũthondeka o mũthenya.”
20 And they meet Moses and Aaron standing to meet them, in their coming out from Pharaoh,
Rĩrĩa moimire harĩ Firaũni-rĩ, magĩkora Musa na Harũni arĩa maametereire,
21 and say unto them, 'Jehovah look upon you, and judge, because ye have caused our fragrance to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants — to give a sword into their hand to slay us.'
nao anyabara acio makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Jehova aromuona na amũtuĩre ciira! Mũtũmĩte tũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩnungu kũrĩ Firaũni na anene ake, na mũkamane rũhiũ rwa njora moko-inĩ mao matũũrage.”
22 And Moses turneth back unto Jehovah, and saith, 'Lord, why hast Thou done evil to this people? why [is] this? — Thou hast sent me!
Musa agĩcooka kũrĩ, Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũrehithĩrie andũ aya thĩĩna? Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo gĩatũmire ũndũme?
23 and since I have come unto Pharaoh, to speak in Thy name, he hath done evil to this people, and Thou hast not at all delivered Thy people.'
Kuuma rĩrĩa ndaathiire kũrĩ Firaũni kũmwarĩria thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku, nĩareheire andũ aya thĩĩna, nawe ũkaaga gũteithũra andũ aku o na hanini.”
