Thaama 11
1 Na rĩrĩ, Jehova nĩeerĩte Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũrehere Firaũni na bũrũri wa Misiri mũthiro ũngĩ ũmwe. Thuutha ũcio, nĩakamũrekereria mũthiĩ mume gũkũ, na rĩrĩa ageeka ũguo, nĩkũmũingata akaamũingata biũ.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “I will bring upon Pharaoh and Egypt one more plague. After that, he will allow you to leave this place. And when he lets you go, he will drive you out completely.
2 Ĩra arũme othe, o hamwe na andũ-a-nja mahooe andũ a matũũra mao indo cia betha na cia thahabu.”
Now announce to the people that men and women alike should ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold.”
3 (Jehova agĩtũma andũ acio metĩkĩrĩke nĩ andũ a Misiri, na Musa we mwene aarĩ mũtĩĩku mũno kũu bũrũri wa Misiri nĩ anene a Firaũni o na andũ arĩa angĩ.)
And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, Moses himself was highly regarded in Egypt by Pharaoh’s officials and by the people.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Kũrĩ ta ũtukũ gatagatĩ nĩngatuĩkania bũrũri wa Misiri wothe.
So Moses declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go throughout Egypt,
5 Mwana wothe wa kahĩĩ wa irigithathi gũkũ bũrũri wa Misiri nĩagaakua, kwambĩrĩria irigithathi rĩa Firaũni, rĩrĩa rĩikaragĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, nginya irigithathi rĩa ngombo ya mũirĩtu, ũrĩa ũrutaga wĩra gĩthĩi-inĩ, na marigithathi mothe ma ngʼombe o namo.
and every firstborn son in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the servant girl behind the hand mill, as well as the firstborn of all the cattle.
6 Nĩgũkaagĩa kĩrĩro kĩnene bũrũri wa Misiri wothe, kĩrĩro kĩũru gĩtarĩ gĩakorwo kuo, na gĩtakagĩa kuo rĩngĩ o na rĩ.
Then a great cry will go out over all the land of Egypt. Such an outcry has never been heard before and will never be heard again.
7 No gatagatĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli, gũtirĩ ngui ĩgaakũgĩra mũndũ, kana ĩkũgĩre nyamũ.’ Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamenya atĩ Jehova nĩekĩrĩte ngũũrani harĩ andũ a Misiri na andũ a Isiraeli.
But among all the Israelites, not even a dog will snarl at man or beast.’ Then you will know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.
8 Anene aya aku othe magooka kũrĩ niĩ, manyinamĩrĩre makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Thiĩ, we mwene o na andũ arĩa makũrũmĩrĩire!’ Thuutha ũcio nĩngathiĩ.” Hĩndĩ ĩyo Musa, acinĩtwo nĩ marakara, akĩeherera Firaũni.
And all these officials of yours will come and bow before me, saying, ‘Go, you and all the people who follow you!’ After that, I will depart.” And hot with anger, Moses left Pharaoh’s presence.
9 Jehova nĩeerĩte Musa atĩrĩ, “Firaũni nĩakarega gũkũigua, nĩgeetha morirũ makwa gũkũ bũrũri wa Misiri mongerereke.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”
10 Musa na Harũni nĩmaringire morirũ maya mothe mbere ya Firaũni, no Jehova akĩũmia ngoro ya Firaũni, na ndaigana kũrekereria andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri-inĩ wake.
Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart so that he would not let the Israelites go out of his land.
