Exodus 6
1 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Now dost thou see that which I do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand he doth send them away, yea, with a strong hand he doth cast them out of his land.'
Kisha Yahweh akasema na Musa, “Sasa utaona nitakacho fanya kwa Farao. Utaona hili, kwa kuwa ata waacha waenda kwa mkono wangu hodari. Kwasababu ya mkono wangu hodari, ata waondoa nje ya nchi.”
2 And God speaketh unto Moses, and saith unto him, 'I [am] Jehovah,
Mungu akasema na Musa na kumwambia, “Mimi ni Yahweh.
3 and I appear unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty; as to My name Jehovah, I have not been known to them;
Nilimtokea Ibrahimu, Isaka, na Yakobo kama Mungu mwenye nguvu; lakini kwa jina langu, Yahweh, sikujuliikana kwao.
4 and also I have established My covenant with them, to give to them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they have sojourned;
Pia niliimarisha agano langu na wao, ilikuwapatia nchi ya Kanani, nchi walioishi kama sio raia, nchi walio tanga tanga.
5 and also I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians are causing to serve, and I remember My covenant.
Zaidi ya yote, nimesikia kilio cha Waisraeli ambao wa Misri wame wa chukua watumwa, na nimekumbuka agano langu.
6 'Therefore say to the sons of Israel, I [am] Jehovah, and I have brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and have delivered you from their service, and have redeemed you by a stretched-out arm, and by great judgments,
Kisha basi, sema kwa Waisraeli, 'Mimi ni Yahweh. Nitawatoa kwenye utumwa chini ya wa Misri, na kuwaweka huru na nguvu zao. Nitawaokoa kwa kudhihirisha nguvu zangu, na kwa matendo ya ajabu ya hukumu.
7 and have taken you to Me for a people, and I have been to you for God, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah your God, who is bringing you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians;
Nitawaleta kwangu kama watu wangu, na nitakuwa Mungu wenu. Mtajua kuwa mimi ndiye Yahweh Mungu wenu, aliye watoa kwenye utumwa chini ya wa Misri.
8 and I have brought you in unto the land which I have lifted up My hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, and have given it to you — a possession; I [am] Jehovah.'
Nitawaleta kwenye nchi niliyo muahidi kumpa Ibrahimu, Isaka, na Yakobo. Nitawapa kama mali yenu. Mimi ni Yahweh.”'
9 And Moses speaketh so unto the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not unto Moses, for anguish of spirit, and for harsh service.
Musa alipo waambia haya Waisraeli, hawakumsiliza kwasababu ya mateso magumu ya utumwa wao.
10 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Hivyo Yahweh akazungumza na Musa na kumwambia,
11 'Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he doth send the sons of Israel out of his land;
“Nenda umwambie Farao, mfalme wa Misri, awaache watu wa Israeli waondoke kwenye nchi yake.”
12 and Moses speaketh before Jehovah, saying, 'Lo, the sons of Israel have not hearkened unto me, and how doth Pharaoh hear me, and I of uncircumcised lips?'
Musa akamwambia Yahweh, “Kama Waisraeli hawajanisikiliza mimi, kwa nini Farao anisikillize mimi, tangu mimi sio mzuri wakuzungumza?”
13 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and chargeth them for the sons of Israel, and for Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt.
Yahweh akasema na Musa na Aruni. Akawapa amri ya Waisraeli na Farao, mfalme wa Misri, awatoe Waisraeli kutoka nchi ya Misri.

Pale Yahweh alipo zungumza na Musa katika nchi ya Misri,
29 that Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, 'I [am] Jehovah, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I am speaking unto thee.'
alimwambia, “Mimi ni Yahweh. Sema kwa Farao, mfalme wa MIsri, kila kitu nitacho kwambia.”
30 And Moses saith before Jehovah, 'Lo, I [am] of uncircumcised lips, and how doth Pharaoh hearken unto me?'
Lakini Musa alimwambia Yahweh, “Mimi sio mzuri wa kuongea, hivyo kwanini Farao anisikilize mimi?”
