< Thaama 6 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩũkuona ũrĩa ngwĩka Firaũni: Nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya-rĩ, nĩakamarekereria mathiĩ; na ningĩ nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya, nĩakamaingata moime bũrũri wake.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Now you will see what I am about to do to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand he will be forced to let them go, driving them out of his land because of my outstretched arm.
2 Ngai agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova.
And God said to Moses, I am Yahweh:
3 Nĩ niĩ ndoimĩrĩire Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu ndĩ Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, no matiamenyire na rĩĩtwa rĩu rĩakwa Jehova.
I let myself be seen by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God, the Ruler of all; but they had no knowledge of my name Yahweh.
4 O na nĩndathondekire kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao atĩ nĩngamahe bũrũri wa Kaanani, kũrĩa maatũũraga marĩ ageni.
And I made an agreement with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their wanderings.
5 Na makĩria-rĩ, nĩnjiguĩte gũcaaya kwa andũ a Isiraeli, arĩa matuĩtwo ngombo nĩ andũ a Misiri, na nĩndirikanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao.
And truly my ears are open to the cry of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep under their yoke; and I have kept in mind my agreement.
6 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, na nĩngamwaũra icooki rĩu mũigĩrĩirwo nĩ andũ a Misiri. Nĩngamuohora mũtige gũcooka gũtuĩka ngombo ciao, na nĩngamũkũũra ndambũrũkĩtie guoko na ciĩko nene cia ũtuanĩri ciira.
Say then to the children of Israel, I am Yahweh, and I will take you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians, and make you safe from their power, and will make you free by the strength of my arm after great punishments.
7 Ngaamuoya ta andũ akwa kĩũmbe, na nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu ũrĩa wamũrutire icooki-inĩ rĩa andũ a Misiri.
And I will take you to be my people and I will be your God; and you will be certain that I am the Lord your God, who takes you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
8 Na nĩngamũtwara bũrũri ũrĩa ndeeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nyambararĩtie guoko atĩ nĩngaahe Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu. Nĩguo ngũmũhe mũwĩgwatĩre ũtuĩke wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
And I will be your guide into the land which I made an oath to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for your heritage: I am Yahweh.
9 Musa agĩkĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, no matiamũiguire nĩ ũrĩa maakuĩte ngoro nĩkũhinyĩrĩrio nĩ ũkombo.
And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, but they gave no attention to him, because of the grief of their spirit and the cruel weight of their work.
10 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the Lord said to Moses,
11 “Thiĩ wĩre Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri arekererie andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wake.”
Go in and say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he is to let the children of Israel go out of his land.
12 No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo andũ a Isiraeli matingĩnjigua-rĩ, nĩkĩ kĩngĩtũma Firaũni anjigue, kuona njaragia ngĩtondoiraga?”
And Moses, answering the Lord, said, See, the children of Israel will not give ear to me; how then will Pharaoh give ear to me, whose lips are unclean?
13 Ngai nĩacookire akĩaria na Musa na Harũni ũhoro wĩgiĩ andũ a Isiraeli na Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri na akĩmaatha marute andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wa Misiri.
