< Thaama 9 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ kũrĩ Firaũni ũkamwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova, o we Ngai wa Ahibirania ekuuga ũũ: “Rekereria andũ akwa mathiĩ, nĩgeetha makandungatĩre.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord God of the Hebrews; Send my people away that they may serve me.
2 Ũngĩrega kũmarekereria, na ũthiĩ na mbere kũmarigĩrĩria-rĩ,
If however you will not send my people away, but yet detain them:
3 guoko kwa Jehova nĩgũkũrehithĩria ũhiũ waku ũrĩa ũrĩ ũrĩithio-inĩ mũthiro mũũru mũno kũrĩ mbarathi cianyu na ndigiri, na ngamĩĩra, na ngʼombe cianyu, na ngʼondu na mbũri.
behold, the hand of the Lord shall be upon your cattle in the fields, both on the horses, and on the asses, and on the camels and oxen and sheep, a very great mortality.
4 No Jehova nĩagekĩra ngũũrani gatagatĩ ka ũhiũ wa andũ a Isiraeli na andũ a Misiri, nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe nyamũ ya Mũisiraeli ĩgũkua.’”
And I will make a marvellous distinction in that time between the cattle of the Egyptians, and the cattle of the children of Israel: nothing shall die of all that is of the children's of Israel.
5 Jehova agĩtua ihinda, na akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rũciũ Jehova nĩageeka ũndũ ũyũ gũkũ bũrũri-inĩ.”
And God fixed a limit, saying, To-morrow the Lord will do this thing on the land.
6 Na mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Jehova agĩgĩka o ũguo: Ũhiũ wothe wa andũ a Misiri ũgĩkua, no gũtirĩ nyamũ o na ĩmwe ya Mũisiraeli yakuire.
And the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one.
7 Firaũni agĩtũma andũ magatuĩrie ũhoro, nao makĩona atĩ gũtiarĩ nyamũ o na ĩmwe ya andũ a Isiraeli yakuĩte. No rĩrĩ, ngoro yake ndĩororoire na ndaigana kũrekereria andũ mathiĩ.
And when Pharao saw, that of all the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one, the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
8 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ, “Oyai ngundi cia mbiro kuuma riiko rĩrĩa inene, nake Musa amĩikie igũrũ mbere ya Firaũni.
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, Take you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses scatter it towards heaven before Pharao, and before his servants.
9 Mbiro ĩyo nĩĩgatuĩka rũkũngũ rũhinyu, naruo rũiyũre bũrũri wothe wa Misiri, rũcooke rũtuĩke mahũha ma ironda mĩĩrĩ-inĩ ya andũ na ya nyamũ bũrũri-inĩ ũcio wothe.”
And let it become dust over all the land of Egypt, and there shall be upon men and upon beasts sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts, in all the land of Egypt.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩkĩoya mbiro kuuma riiko inene, makĩrũgama mbere ya Firaũni. Musa akĩmĩikia igũrũ, namo mahũha ma ironda makiumĩra mĩĩrĩ-inĩ ya andũ o na ya nyamũ.
So he took of the ashes of the furnace before Pharao, and Moses scattered it towards heaven, and it became sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts.
11 Aringi ciama a Misiri matingĩahotire kũrũgama mbere ya Musa nĩ ũndũ wa mahũha marĩa maarĩ namo, hamwe na andũ othe a bũrũri wa Misiri.
And the sorcerers could not stand before Moses because of the sores, for the sores were on the sorcerers, and in all the land of Egypt.
12 No Jehova akĩũmia ngoro ya Firaũni, akĩrega kũigua Musa na Harũni, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eerĩte Musa.
And the Lord hardened Pharao's heart, and he listened not to them, as the Lord appointed.
13 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra rũciinĩ tene, ũkarũgame mbere ya Firaũni ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Ngai wa Ahibirania ekuuga: Rekereria andũ akwa mathiĩ, nĩgeetha makahooe,
And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao; and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord God of the Hebrews, Send away my people that they may serve me.
14 kana ihinda rĩĩrĩ ngũtũmĩre mĩthiro yakwa yothe ya hinya, we o hamwe na anene aku na andũ aku, nĩguo ũmenye atĩ gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũhaana ta niĩ gũkũ thĩ guothe.
For at this present time do I send forth all my plagues into your heart, and the heart of your servants and of your people; that you may know that there is not another such as I in all the earth.
15 Nĩgũkorwo nginya rĩu nĩingĩhotete gũtambũrũkia guoko gwakwa, ngakũhũũra na ngahũũra andũ aku na mũthiro ũrĩa ũngĩmũniinĩte inyuothe thĩ.
For now I will stretch forth my hand and strike you and kill your people, and you shall be consumed from off the earth.
16 No ngũrũgamĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtũmi gĩkĩ kĩũmbe, atĩ nguonie hinya wakwa, na atĩ rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩhunjio thĩ yothe.
And for this purpose have you been preserved, that I might display in you my strength, and that my name might bepublished in all the earth.
17 No wĩyũmĩtie kũhinyĩrĩria andũ akwa na ũkagiria mathiĩ.
Do you then yet exert yourself to hinder my people, so as not to let them go?
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, rũciũ ihinda ta rĩĩrĩ ngoiria mbura ya mbembe njũru mũno, ĩtarĩ yoira ĩngĩ tayo gũkũ bũrũri wa Misiri kuuma rĩrĩa Misiri kwambĩrĩirie gũtũũrwo nginya rĩu.
Behold, to-morrow at this hour I will rain a very great hail, such as has not been in Egypt, from the time it was created until this day.
19 Gĩathane rĩu atĩ ũhiũ waku na indo ciothe iria ũrĩ nacio mũgũnda itoonyio handũ ingĩĩgitia, tondũ mbura ĩyo ya mbembe yoirĩra mũndũ o wothe ũrĩ nja kana nyamũ ĩtarehetwo mũciĩ o yothe na ĩrĩ kũu mũgũnda no ĩgũkua.’”
Now then hasten to gather your cattle, and all that you have in the fields; for all the men and cattle as many as shall be found in the fields, and shall not enter into a house, (but the hail shall fall upon them, ) shall die.
20 Anene acio a Firaũni arĩa meetigĩrĩte kiugo kĩa Jehova makĩhiũha gũtoonyia ngombo ciao na ũhiũ wao nyũmba thĩinĩ.
He of the servants of Pharao that feared the word of the Lord, gathered his cattle into the houses.
21 No arĩa mateetigĩrire kiugo kĩa Jehova maatigire ngombo ciao na ũhiũ wao mĩgũnda-inĩ.
And he that did not attend in his mind to the word of the Lord, left the cattle in the fields.
22 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Tambũrũkia guoko ũkũroretie matu-inĩ nĩgeetha mbura ya mbembe yure bũrũri wa Misiri guothe; yurĩre andũ, na nyamũ na yurĩre kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrakũra mĩgũnda-inĩ ya bũrũri wa Misiri.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand to heaven, and there shall be hail on all the land of Egypt, both on the men and on the cattle, and on all the herbage on the land.
23 Rĩrĩa Musa aatambũrũkirie rũthanju arũroretie matu-inĩ, Jehova agĩtũma kũgĩe na marurumĩ hamwe na mbura ya mbembe, naruo rũheni rũkĩhenũka thĩ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akiuria mbura ya mbembe kũu bũrũri wa Misiri;
And Moses stretched forth his hand to heaven, and the Lord sent thunderings and hail; and the fire ran along upon the ground, and the Lord rained hail on all the land of Egypt.
24 mbura ya mbembe ĩgĩkiura, naruo rũheni rũkĩhenũka kũndũ guothe. Nĩkĩo kĩarĩ kĩhuhũkanio kĩrĩa kĩũru mũno kĩonekanĩte bũrũri wothe wa Misiri kuuma wambĩrĩria gũtũũrwo nĩ andũ.
So there was hail and flaming fire mingled with hail; and the hail was very great, such as was not in Egypt, from the time there was a nation upon it.
25 Mbura ĩyo ya mbembe ĩkiura bũrũri wothe wa Misiri, ĩkiurĩra kĩndũ gĩothe kĩarĩ mũgũnda, andũ o hamwe na nyamũ; ĩgĩthũkia kĩndũ gĩothe kĩarĩ mũgũnda na ĩgĩkahũra mĩtĩ yothe.
And the hail struck in all the land of Egypt both man and beast, and the hail struck all the grass in the field, and the hail broke in pieces all the trees in the field.
26 Kũndũ kũrĩa mbura ĩyo ya mbembe ĩtoirire no bũrũri wa Gosheni, kũrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ.
Only in the land of Gesem where the children of Israel were, the hail was not.
27 Nake Firaũni agĩĩta Musa na Harũni, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ihinda rĩĩrĩ nĩnjĩhĩtie. Jehova nĩwe wa ma; niĩ na andũ akwa nĩtũhĩtĩtie.
And Pharao sent and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time: the Lord [is] righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28 Hooyai Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩtũiganĩtie marurumĩ na mbura ya mbembe iria tuonete. Nĩngũmũrekereria mũthiĩ; mũtigũikara gũkũ rĩngĩ.”
Pray then for me to the Lord, and let him cause the thunderings of God to cease, and the hail and the fire, and I will send you forth and you shall remain no longer.
29 Musa akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndoima itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene, nĩngũtambũrũkia moko hooe Jehova. Marurumĩ nĩmegũthira, na gũtigũkorwo na mbura ĩngĩ ya mbembe, nĩgeetha ũmenye atĩ thĩ nĩ ya Jehova.
And Moses said to him, When I shall have departed from the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord, and the thunderings shall cease, and the hail and the rain shall be no longer, that you may know that the earth [is] the Lord's.
30 No nĩnjũũĩ atĩ wee na anene aku mũtirĩ mũretigĩra Jehova Ngai.”
But as for you and your servants, I know that you have not yet feared the Lord.
31 (Ũguta na cairi nĩciathũkirio, nĩ ũndũ cairi nĩyarutĩte magira, naguo ũguta ũkaruta kĩro.
And the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was advanced, and the flax was seeding.
32 No rĩrĩ, ngano o na guthemethu itiathũkirio, tondũ itiarĩ ngũrũ.)
But the wheat and the rye were not struck, for they were late.
33 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Musa akĩehera harĩ Firaũni na akiuma nja ya itũũra inene. Agĩtambũrũkia moko amaroretie na kũrĩ Jehova; marurumĩ na mbura ya mbembe igĩthira, na gũtiacookire kuura.
And Moses went forth from Pharao out of the city, and stretched out his hands to the Lord, and the thunders ceased and the hail, and the rain did not drop on the earth.
34 Rĩrĩa Firaũni onire atĩ mbura ya mbembe na marurumĩ nĩciathira akĩĩhia rĩngĩ; we na anene ake makĩũmia ngoro ciao.
And when Pharao saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders ceased, he continued to sin; and [he] hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants.
35 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngoro ya Firaũni yarĩ nyũmũ na ndangĩarekereirie andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aarĩtie na kanua ka Musa.
And the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not send forth the children of Israel, as the Lord said to Moses.
