< Thaama 14 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
2 “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli macooke na thuutha, na mambe hema gũkuhĩ na Pi-Hahirothu, gatagatĩ ka Migidoli na iria. Nĩmambe hema hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, kũngʼethanĩra na Baali-Zefoni.
Speake to the children of Israel, that they returne and campe before Pi-hahiroth, betweene Migdol and the Sea, ouer against Baal-zephon: about it shall ye campe by the Sea.
3 Firaũni nĩageciiria atĩrĩ, ‘andũ a Isiraeli marĩ na kĩrigiicano no kũũrũũra marorũũra bũrũri-inĩ, mahingĩrĩirio nĩ werũ.’
For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are tangled in the land: the wildernesse hath shut them in.
4 Na nĩngomia ngoro ya Firaũni, nake nĩakamaingatithia. No niĩ mwene nĩngegĩĩra na riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni na mbũtũ yake yothe ya ita, nao andũ a Misiri nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka o ũguo merĩtwo.
And I will harden Pharaohs heart that hee shall follow after you: so I will get mee honour vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his hoste: the Egyptians also shall knowe that I am the Lord: and they did so.
5 Rĩrĩa mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri eerirwo atĩ andũ acio nĩmorĩte-rĩ, Firaũni na anene ake makĩĩricũkwo ũhoro ũcio, magĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩ! Tweka atĩa? Twarekereria andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ na ithuĩ tuorĩrwo nĩ ũtungata wao?”
Then it was told the King of Egypt, that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his seruants was turned against the people, and they sayde, Why haue we this done, and haue let Israel go out of our seruice?
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akiuga ngaari yake ya ita ĩhaarĩrio, na agĩthiĩ na mbũtũ yake ya ita.
And he made ready his charets, and tooke his people with him,
7 Agĩthiĩ na ngaari cia ita 600 iria njega mũno, o hamwe na ngaari cia ita iria ingĩ ciothe cia bũrũri wa Misiri, ciothe irũgamĩrĩirwo nĩ anene.
And tooke sixe hundreth chosen charets, and all the charets of Egypt, and captaines ouer euery one of them.
8 Jehova akĩũmia ngoro ya Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩrũmĩrĩra andũ a Isiraeli na ihenya arĩa moimagarĩte makinyũkĩtie na ũcamba.
(For the Lord had hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he followed after the children of Israel: but the children of Israel went out with an hie hand)
9 Andũ a Misiri, hamwe na mbarathi ciothe cia Firaũni na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi, na thigari, makĩrũmĩrĩra andũ a Isiraeli na ihenya makĩmakinyĩra harĩa maambĩte hema rũteere-inĩ rwa iria, hakuhĩ na Pi-Hahirothu kũngʼethera Baali-Zefoni.
And the Egyptians pursued after them, and all the horses and charets of Pharaoh, and his horsemen and his hoste ouertooke them camping by the Sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
10 Firaũni akuhĩrĩria-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli makĩĩhũgũra, makĩona andũ a Misiri mamoimĩte thuutha makĩmaka mũno, magĩkaĩra Jehova.
And when Pharaoh drew nie, the children of Israel lift vp their eyes, and beholde, the Egyptians marched after them, and they were sore afrayde: wherefore the children of Israel cried vnto the Lord.
11 Makĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mbĩrĩra gũtaarĩ bũrũri wa Misiri, nĩguo ũtũrehe tũkuĩre gũkũ werũ-inĩ? Nĩ atĩa ũũ ũtwĩkĩte ũgatũruta bũrũri wa Misiri?
And they sayde vnto Moses, Hast thou brought vs to die in the wildernes, because there were no graues in Egypt? wherefore hast thou serued vs thus, to carie vs out of Egypt?
12 Githĩ tũtiakwĩrire tũrĩ o bũrũri wa Misiri atĩ ũtigane na ithuĩ, ũreke tũtungatĩre andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri? Kũngĩarĩ wega tũtungatĩre andũ a Misiri kũrĩ gũkuĩra werũ-inĩ!”
Did not wee tell thee this thing in Egypt, saying, Let vs be in rest, that we may serue the Egyptians? for it had bene better for vs to serue the Egyptians, then that wee shoulde dye in the wildernesse.
13 Musa agĩcookeria andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Tigai gwĩtigĩra. Mwĩhaandei wega, na nĩmũkuona ũhonokio ũrĩa Jehova ekũmũrehere ũmũthĩ. Andũ a Misiri aya mũrona ũmũthĩ, mũtikamona rĩngĩ.
Then Moses sayde to the people, Feare ye not, stand still, and beholde the saluation of the Lord which he will shew to you this day. For the Egyptians, whome ye haue seene this day, ye shall neuer see them againe.
14 Jehova nĩekũmũrũĩrĩra, mũbatie o gũikara mũhooreire.”
The Lord shall fight for you: therefore hold you your peace.
15 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũrangaĩra nĩkĩ? Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ na mbere.
And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Wherefore cryest thou vnto me? speake vnto the children of Israel that they go forward:
16 Oya rũthanju rwaku, na ũtambũrũkie guoko igũrũ wa iria ũgayanie maaĩ nĩgeetha andũ a Isiraeli matuĩkanĩrie iria-inĩ, mathiĩrĩire thĩ nyũmũ.
And lift thou vp thy rod, and stretche out thine hand vpon the Sea and deuide it, and let the children of Israel goe on drie ground thorow the middes of the Sea.
17 Nĩngũũmia ngoro cia andũ a Misiri nĩgeetha o nao mamarũmĩrĩre. Na nĩngegĩĩra riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni na mbũtũ yake ya ita, o na nĩ ũndũ wa ngaari ciake cia ita, o na andũ ake arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.
And I, beholde, I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, that they may follow them, and I wil get me honour vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his host, vpon his charets, and vpon his horsemen.
18 Nao andũ a Misiri nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova hĩndĩ ĩyo ngegĩĩra riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni, na ngaari ciake cia ita na andũ ake arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.”
Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I haue gotten me honour vpon Pharaoh, vpon his charets, and vpon his horsemen.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũraika wa Ngai ũrĩa wathiiaga atongoretie mbũtũ ya thigari cia Isiraeli, akĩehera agĩcooka thuutha wao. Gĩtugĩ gĩa itu nakĩo gĩkiuma hau mbere, gĩkĩrũgama thuutha wao,
(And the Angel of God, which went before the hoste of Israel, remoued and went behinde them: also the pillar of the cloude went from before them, and stoode behinde them,
20 gĩkĩgĩa gatagatĩ ga thigari cia Misiri na cia Isiraeli. Ũtukũ wothe itu rĩu rĩgĩĩkĩra nduma mwena ũmwe, na ũtheri mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ; nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ andũ makuhĩrĩirie arĩa angĩ ũtukũ wothe.
And came betweene the campe of the Egyptians and the campe of Israel: it was both a cloude and darkenes, yet gaue it light by night, so that all the night long the one came not at the other)
21 Ningĩ Musa agĩtambũrũkia guoko igũrũ wa iria, na ũtukũ wothe Jehova agĩtindĩka iria na thuutha na ũndũ wa rũhuho rwa kuuma mwena wa irathĩro, na agĩtũma hau hatuĩke thĩ nyũmũ. Maaĩ macio makĩgayũkana,
And Moses stretched forth his hande vpon the Sea, and the Lord caused the sea to runne backe by a strong East winde all the night, and made the Sea dry land: for the waters were deuided.
22 nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩringa iria mahĩtũkĩire thĩ nyũmũ, maaĩ marũgamĩte mwena wao wa ũrĩo na wa ũmotho.
Then the children of Israel went through the middes of the Sea vpon the drie ground, and the waters were a wall vnto them on their right hand, and on their left hand.
23 Nao andũ a Misiri makĩmarũmĩrĩra na ihenya, nacio mbarathi ciothe cia Firaũni na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi makĩmarũmĩrĩra nginya iria-inĩ.
And the Egyptians pursued and went after them to the middes of the Sea, euen all Pharaohs horses, his charets, and his horsemen.
24 Rũciinĩ ruoro rũgĩtema-rĩ, Jehova agĩcũthĩrĩria mbũtũ ya ita ya andũ a Misiri arĩ gĩtugĩ-inĩ kĩa mwaki na gĩa itu, nake akĩmĩrigiica.
Nowe in the morning watche, when the Lord looked vnto the hoste of the Egyptians, out of the firie and cloudie pillar, he strooke the host of the Egyptians with feare.
25 Agĩtũma magũrũ ma ngaari ciao cia ita macomoke nĩgeetha makorwo na thĩĩna wa gũcitwarithia. Nao andũ a Misiri makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũũrei twehere harĩ andũ aya a Isiraeli! Jehova nĩwe ũramarũĩrĩra kũrĩ andũ a Misiri.”
For he tooke off their charet wheeles, and they draue them with much a doe: so that the Egyptians euery one sayd, I wil flee from the face of Israel: for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
26 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Tambũrũkia guoko igũrũ wa iria nĩgeetha maaĩ macooke mahubanĩrie andũ a Misiri na ngaari ciao cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.”
Then the Lord sayde to Moses, Stretche thine hand vpon the Sea, that the waters may returne vpon the Egyptians, vpon their charets and vpon their horsemen.
27 Musa agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ wa iria, na gũgĩkĩa-rĩ, iria rĩgĩcooka gũtherera o ta mbere. Nao andũ a Misiri makĩgeria kũrĩũrĩra, no Jehova akĩmahubanĩria iria-inĩ thĩinĩ.
Then Moses stretched forth his hand vpon the Sea, and the Sea returned to his force early in the morning, and the Egyptians fled against it: but the Lord ouerthrew the Egyptians in the mids of the Sea.
28 Maaĩ magĩcookana, magĩthika ngaari cia ita na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi; nĩo mbũtũ yothe ya Firaũni ĩrĩa yarũmĩrĩire andũ a Isiraeli iria-inĩ. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao wahonokire.
So the water returned and couered the charets and the horsemen, euen all the hoste of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them: there remained not one of them.
29 No andũ a Isiraeli maaringire iria magereire njĩra nyũmũ, rũthingo rwa maaĩ rũrũgamĩte mwena wao wa ũrĩo na wa ũmotho.
But the children of Israel walked vpon dry land thorowe the middes of the Sea, and the waters were a wall vnto them on their right hande, and on their left.
30 Mũthenya ũcio Jehova akĩhonokia Isiraeli kuuma moko-inĩ ma andũ a Misiri, nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩĩonera ciimba cia andũ a Misiri kũu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
Thus the Lord saued Israel the same day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel sawe the Egyptians dead vpon the Sea banke.
31 Na rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli moonire hinya mũnene ũrĩa Jehova onirie andũ a Misiri-rĩ, andũ acio magĩĩtigĩra Jehova na makĩmwĩhoka o na makĩĩhoka Musa ndungata yake.
And Israel saw the mightie power, which the Lord shewed vpon the Egyptians: so the people feared the Lord, and beleeued the Lord, and his seruant Moses.
