Thaama 8
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ kũrĩ Firaũni ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova oigĩte ũũ: Rekereria andũ akwa mathiĩ, nĩgeetha makandungatĩre.
The LORD spoke to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Ũngĩrega kũmarekereria mathiĩ, nĩngũhũũra bũrũri waku wothe na mũthiro wa ciũra.
If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs.
3 Rũũĩ rwa Nili rũkũiyũra ciũra. Igũũka ciambate o nginya nyũmba yaku ya ũthamaki o na nyũmba yaku ya toro o nginya ũrĩrĩ waku igũrũ, itoonye nyũmba cia anene aku, o na irũgĩrĩre andũ aku o ene, ikorwo kuo o na mariiko-inĩ maku na mĩharatĩ-inĩ ya gũkandĩrwo mũtu.
The river will swarm with frogs, which will go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs.
4 Ciũra icio ikũrũgĩrĩre na irũgĩrĩre andũ aku o na anene aku.’”
The frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.”’”
5 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, ‘Tambũrũkia guoko gwaku na rũthanju igũrũ rĩa tũrũũĩ, na mĩtaro, na tũmaria, ũtũme ciũra ciũke bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri.’”
The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’”
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Harũni agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ rĩa maaĩ ma bũrũri wa Misiri, nacio ciũra ikiumĩra ikĩiyũra bũrũri.
Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 No aringi ciama a bũrũri wa Misiri magĩĩka maũndũ o ta macio na ũndũ wa maũgĩ mao ma ũgo, o nao magĩtũma ciũra ciũke bũrũri wa Misiri.
The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Firaũni agĩĩta Musa na Harũni, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Hooyai Jehova anjehererie na ehererie andũ akwa ciũra ici, na nĩngũrekereria andũ anyu mathiĩ makarutĩre Jehova magongona.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Entreat the LORD, that he take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD.”
9 Musa akĩĩra Firaũni atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe ngũhe gĩtĩĩo gĩa gũtua ihinda rĩa gũkũhoera, wee na anene aku o na andũ aku nĩguo inyuĩ na nyũmba cianyu mwehererwo nĩ ciũra, itigare o iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Nili.”
Moses said to Pharaoh, “I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only.”
10 Firaũni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũkaahooera rũciũ.” Nake Musa akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩgũtuĩke ũguo woiga, nĩgeetha ũmenye atĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ ũhaana ta Jehova Ngai witũ.
Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.
11 Ciũra nĩcigũkweherera na ciehere nyũmba ciaku, cieherere anene aku na andũ aku; itigare o iria irĩ rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Nili.”
The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 Na rĩrĩa Musa na Harũni mehereire Firaũni, Musa agĩkaĩra Jehova ũhoro wĩgiĩ ciũra iria aarehithĩirie Firaũni.
Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to the LORD concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Nake Jehova agĩĩka o ũrĩa Musa aahooete. Ciũra iria ciarĩ nyũmba, na iria ciarĩ nja na iria ciarĩ mĩgũnda igĩkua.
The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Ikĩũnganio ikĩigwo irũndo, nacio ikĩnungia bũrũri.
They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 No rĩrĩa Firaũni onire atĩ marĩkũhoorerwo nĩ thĩĩna-rĩ, akĩũmia ngoro na akĩrega kũigua Musa na Harũni, o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
16 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, ‘Tambũrũkia rũthanju rwaku ũgũthe rũkũngũ rũrĩa rũrĩ thĩ,’ na bũrũri-inĩ wothe wa Misiri-rĩ, rũkũngũ rũu rũgũtuĩka rwagĩ.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’”
17 Nao magĩĩka ũguo; na rĩrĩa Harũni aatambũrũkirie guoko anyiitĩte rũthanju-rĩ, agũtha rũkũngũ naguo, rwagĩ rũgĩtambĩrĩra andũ na nyamũ. Rũkũngũ ruothe bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri rũgĩtuĩka rwagĩ.
They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aringi a ciama a bũrũri wa Misiri maageririe kũrehe rwagĩ na maũgĩ mao ma ũgo-rĩ, nĩmaremirwo. Naruo rwagĩ rũgĩtambĩrĩra andũ na nyamũ.
The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
19 Aringi acio a ciama makĩĩra Firaũni atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ hinya wa kĩara kĩa Ngai.” No Firaũni akĩũmia ngoro akĩrega kũigua, o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger;” but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
20 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra rũciinĩ tene, uumĩrĩre Firaũni agĩthiĩ Rũũĩ rwa Nili, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Rekereria andũ akwa mathiĩ nĩgeetha makandungatĩre.
The LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Ũngĩaga kũreka mathiĩ-rĩ, ngũkũrehera mĩrumbĩ ya ngi, ndehere anene aku na andũ aku, o na ndĩcirehe nyũmba-inĩ cianyu. Nyũmba cia andũ a Misiri ikũiyũra ngi, o na ningĩ ciyũre thĩ kũrĩa guothe marĩ.
Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground they are on.
22 “‘No rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũcio ngeeka ũndũ ũrĩ ngũrani bũrũri-inĩ wa Gosheni, kũrĩa andũ akwa matũũraga; gũtikagĩa na mĩrumbĩ ya ngi kũu, nĩgeetha ũmenye atĩ niĩ, Jehova, ndĩ bũrũri-inĩ ũyũ.
I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end you may know that I am the LORD on the earth.
23 Nĩngekĩra ngũũrani gatagatĩ ka andũ akwa na aku. Rũciũ nĩrĩo kĩama gĩkĩ gĩgekĩka.’”
I will put a division between my people and your people. This sign shall happen by tomorrow.”’”
24 Na ũguo noguo Jehova eekire. Ngi mĩrumbĩ mĩnene ikĩiyũra nyũmba ya ũthamaki ya Firaũni na igĩtoonya nyũmba cia anene ake, naguo bũrũri wa Misiri wothe ũkĩanangwo nĩ ngi icio.
The LORD did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses. In all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Ningĩ Firaũni agĩĩta Musa na Harũni, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũkarutĩre Ngai wanyu iruta gũkũ bũrũri-inĩ.”
Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!”
26 No Musa akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Gũtingĩagĩrĩra gwĩka ũguo. Magongona marĩa tũkũrutĩra Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ mekuoneka marĩ magigi nĩ andũ a Misiri. Tũngĩkĩruta magongona marĩ magigi maitho-inĩ mao-rĩ, githĩ matigũtũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto?
Moses said, “It isn’t appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God. Behold, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, won’t they stone us?
27 No nginya tũthiĩ rũgendo rwa mĩthenya ĩtatũ werũ-inĩ tũkarutĩre Jehova Ngai witũ magongona, o ta ũrĩa atwathĩte.”
We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.”
28 Firaũni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũmũrekereria mũthiĩ mũkarutĩre Jehova Ngai wanyu magongona werũ-inĩ, no mũtigathiĩ kũraya mũno. Na rĩu, hooerai.”
Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 Musa agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ndaarĩkia kuuma harĩwe, nĩngũhooya Jehova, na rũciũ ngi nĩikoima kũrĩ Firaũni na anene ake, na andũ ake. No ũkĩmenyerere atĩ Firaũni ndageke ũndũ wa kũheenania rĩngĩ, na ũndũ wa kwaga kũrekereria andũ mathiĩ makarutĩre Jehova magongona.”
Moses said, “Behold, I am going out from you. I will pray to the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don’t let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.”
30 Musa agĩkiuma harĩ Firaũni, akĩhooya Jehova,
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
31 nake Jehova agĩĩka ũrĩa Musa aamũhoire; nacio ngi ikĩeherera Firaũni, na anene ake, na andũ ake, na gũtirĩ ngi yatigarire.
The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
32 No rĩrĩ, o na ihinda rĩĩrĩ Firaũni akĩũmia ngoro yake akĩrega kũrekereria andũ mathiĩ.
Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.
