1 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Musa na andũ a Isiraeli makĩinĩra Jehova rwĩmbo rũrũ: “Nĩngũinĩra Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ũtũũgĩrĩtio mũno. Mbarathi amĩikĩtie iria-inĩ hamwe na mũmĩhaici.
Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and they said: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified: the horse and the rider he has cast into the sea.
2 Jehova nĩwe hinya wakwa na rwĩmbo rwakwa; nĩwe ũtuĩkĩte ũhonokio wakwa. Nĩwe Ngai wakwa na nĩndĩĩmũgoocaga, Nĩwe Ngai wa baba na nĩndĩĩmũtũũgagĩria.
The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I shall glorify him. He is the God of my father, and I shall exalt him.
3 Jehova nĩ njamba ya ita; Jehova nĩrĩo rĩĩtwa rĩake.
The Lord is like a fighting man. Almighty is his name.
4 Ngaari cia ita cia Firaũni na mbũtũ yake aamĩikirie iria-inĩ. Anene arĩa ega mũno a Firaũni moorĩire maaĩ-inĩ ma Iria Itune.
The chariots of Pharaoh, and his army, he has cast into the sea; his elect leaders have been submerged in the Red Sea.
5 Maaĩ marĩa mariku nĩmamathikĩte; Nao magakĩrikĩra kũrĩa kũriku ta ihiga.
The abyss has covered them. They descended into the depths like a stone.
6 “Wee Jehova, guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo kwarĩ gwa kũgegania, gũkagĩa hinya. Wee Jehova, guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo nĩ gwathuthangire thũ.
Your right hand, O Lord, has been magnified in strength. Your right hand, O Lord, has struck down the enemy.
7 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũnene waku wa magegania, nĩwakurumanirie arĩa magũũkĩrĩire. Nĩwaitũrũrire marakara maku mahiũ; makĩmacina taarĩ mahuti.
And in the multitude of your glory you have put down your adversaries. You sent out your wrath, which devoured them like stubble.
8 Na ũndũ wa mũrurumo wa mĩhũmũ ya maniũrũ maku-rĩ, maaĩ nĩmeiganĩrĩire hĩba. Makũmbĩ ma maaĩ makĩrũgama ta rũthingo; maaĩ ma kũrĩa kũriku makĩnyiitana gatagatĩ ka iria.
And by the breath of your fury, the waters were gathered together. The flowing waves stood still. The abyss was gathered into the midst of the sea.
9 “Thũ nayo yetĩĩte, ĩkoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngamarũmĩrĩra na ihenya, ndĩmakinyĩre. Ngagayania indo iria matahĩte, ndĩĩhũũnĩrĩrie nacio. Nĩngũcomora rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora, nakuo guoko gwakwa kũmaniine.’
The enemy said: ‘I will pursue and overtake them. I will divide the spoils. My soul will be filled. I will unsheathe my sword. My hand will put them to death.’
10 No wahuhire rũhuho rũkĩhurutana, narĩo iria rĩkĩmathika, makĩrika ta kĩgera maaĩ-inĩ maingĩ.
Your breath blew, and the sea covered them. They were submerged like lead into the mighty waters.
11 “Wee Jehova-rĩ, nũũ ũhaana tawe harĩ ngai ciothe? Nũũ ũhaana tawe, wee ũrĩ ũtheru wa magegania, wee wĩtigĩrĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wa riiri waku, wee wĩkaga maũndũ ma magegania?
Who is like you in strength, O Lord? Who is like you: magnificent in sanctity, terrible and yet praiseworthy, accomplishing miracles?
12 Watambũrũkirie guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo, nayo thĩ ĩkĩmameria.
You extended your hand, and the earth devoured them.
13 “Nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku ũtathiraga, nĩũgũtongoria andũ arĩa ũkũũrĩte. Nĩũkamatongoria na ũndũ wa hinya waku, ũmatware nginya gĩikaro gĩaku gĩtheru.
In your mercy, you have been a leader to the people whom you have redeemed. And in your strength, you have carried them to your holy dwelling place.
14 Ndũrĩrĩ ikaigua, nacio ciinaine; ruo rũnyiite andũ a Filistia.
Peoples rose up and became angry. Sorrows took hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Aathani a Edomu nĩmakamaka mũno, na atongoria a Moabi manyiitwo nĩ kũinaina, andũ a Kaanani makaiyũrwo nĩ maaĩ nda;
Then the leaders of Edom were stirred up, and trembling took hold of the robust of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan were petrified.
16 guoya na kĩmako nĩikamakinyĩrĩra. Na ũndũ wa hinya wa guoko gwaku-rĩ, makahaana ta ihiga matekwĩnyagunyia, nginya andũ aku, Wee Jehova, maringe, nginya andũ arĩa wegũrĩire maringe.
Let fear and dread fall upon them, by the magnitude of your arm. Let them become immobilized like stone, until your people cross through, O Lord, until this, your people whom you possess, cross through.
17 Ũkaamarehe thĩinĩ na ũmahaande kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa igai rĩaku, o handũ harĩa, Wee Jehova, wombire hatuĩke gĩikaro gĩaku, handũ-harĩa-haamũre, harĩa Wee Jehova, wahaandire na moko maku.
You shall lead them in and plant them, on the mountain of your inheritance, in your most firm dwelling place, which you have formed, O Lord, your sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have made firm.
18 Jehova agaathamaka tene na tene.”
The Lord will reign in eternity and beyond.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mbarathi cia Firaũni, na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa maathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi maatoonyire iria-inĩ-rĩ, Jehova agĩcookania maaĩ ma iria, makĩmathika. No rĩrĩ, andũ a Isiraeli maatuĩkanirie iria-inĩ mathiĩrĩire thĩ nyũmũ.
For the rider Pharaoh, with his chariots and horsemen, was brought into the sea. And the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea. But the sons of Israel walked across dry ground in its midst.”
20 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Miriamu ũrĩa mũnabii mũndũ-wa-nja, mwarĩ wa nyina na Harũni, akĩoya kĩhembe gĩa kũinio, nao atumia othe makĩmuuma thuutha marĩ na ihembe ciao makĩinaga.
And so Miriam, the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took up a timbrel in her hand. And all the women followed her with timbrels and dancing.
21 Miriamu akĩmainĩra atĩrĩ: “Inĩrai Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ũtũũgĩrĩtio mũno. Mbarathi amĩikĩtie iria-inĩ, hamwe na mũmĩhaici.”
And she prophesied, saying: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified. The horse and its rider, he has thrown into the sea.”
22 Ningĩ Musa agĩtongoria Isiraeli kuuma Iria Itune magĩthiĩ Werũ wa Shuri. Magĩthiĩ rũgendo rwa mĩthenya ĩtatũ werũ-inĩ na matekuona maaĩ.
Then Moses took Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the desert of Shur. And they wandered for three days through the wilderness, and they found no water.
23 Rĩrĩa maakinyire Mara, matingĩahotire kũnyua maaĩ makuo tondũ maarĩ marũrũ. (Nĩkĩo handũ hau hetagwo Mara.)
And they arrived at Marah. They were unable to drink the waters of Marah because they were bitter. Therefore, he also established a name befitting the place, calling it ‘Marah,’ that is, bitterness.
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ magĩtetia Musa, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũkũnyua kĩ?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying: “What shall we drink?”
25 Nake Musa agĩkaĩra Jehova, nake Jehova akĩmuonia kamũtĩ. Agĩgaikia maaĩ-inĩ, namo makĩgĩa mũcamo mwega. O hau Jehova agĩathana, akĩmathondekera watho na uuge wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo, na akĩmagereria ho.
So he cried out to the Lord, who showed him a tree. And when he had cast it into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. In that place, he established instructions for him, and also judgments. And he tested him there,
26 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩthikĩrĩria mũgambo wa Jehova Ngai wanyu wega, na mwĩke maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire maitho-inĩ make, mũngĩrũmbũiya maathani make na mũmenyerere wathani wake wothe-rĩ, ndikamũrehera mũrimũ o na ũmwe wa ĩrĩa ndareheire andũ a Misiri, nĩgũkorwo niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, ũrĩa ũmũhonagia.”
saying: “If you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and obey his commands, and keep all his precepts, I will not bring upon you any of the distress that I imposed on Egypt. For I am the Lord, your healer.”
27 Ningĩ magĩkinya Elimu, harĩa haarĩ ithima ikũmi na igĩrĩ, na mĩtende mĩrongo mũgwanja, nao makĩamba hema hau hakuhĩ na maaĩ.
Then the sons of Israel arrived in Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm trees. And they camped next to the waters.
