Fitowa 14
1 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa, su juya su kafa sansani a Fi Hahirot, a tsakanin Migdol da teku. Za su kafa sansanin kai tsaye kusa da teku, wanda ya fuskanci Ba’al-Zafon.
Speak to the children of Israel: Let them turn and encamp over against Phihahiroth which is between Magdal and the sea over against Beelsephon: you shall encamp before it upon the sea.
3 Fir’auna zai yi tsammani, ‘Aha, Isra’ilawa sun rikice cikin ƙasar, hamada kuwa ta yimƙe su.’
And Pharao will say of the children of Israel: They are straitened in the land, the desert hath shut them in.
4 Zan kuma taurare zuciyar Fir’auna, zai kuwa bi su. Na shirya wannan domin in nuna ɗaukakata a bisa Fir’auna da ƙungiyar sojansa. Bayan wannan, mutanen Masar za su sani ni ne Ubangiji.” Sai Isra’ilawa suka yi haka.
And I shall harden his heart, and he will pursue you: and I shall be glorified in Pharao, and in all his army: and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so.
5 Sa’ad da aka faɗa wa Fir’auna cewa Isra’ilawa sun gudu, sai Fir’auna da bayinsa suka canja ra’ayinsu game da su, suka ce, “Me muka yi? Mun bar Isra’ilawa suka tafi, mun kuwa rasa hidimarsu!”
And it was told the king of the Egyptians that the people was fled: and the heart of Pharao and of his servants was changed with regard to the people, and they said: What meant we to do, that we let Israel go from serving us?
6 Sai shi da keken yaƙinsa suka shirya, ya kuma ɗauki sojojinsa tare da shi.
So he made ready his chariot, and took all his people with him.
7 Ya ɗauki kekunan yaƙi ɗari shida mafi kyau duka, tare da duk sauran keken yaƙin Masar, da shugabanni kuma a kan dukansu.
And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots that were in Egypt: and the captains of the whole army.
8 Ubangiji ya taurare zuciyar Fir’auna sarkin Masar, domin yă bi Isra’ilawa waɗanda suke tafiya ba tsoro.
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel: but they were gone forth in a mighty hand.
9 Masarawa, dukan dawakan Fir’auna da kekunan yaƙi da mahaya da sojoji, suka bi Isra’ilawa suka cin musu yayinda suke a sansani kusa da teku kurkusa da Fi Hahirot, wanda ya fuskanci Ba’al-Zafon.
And when the Egyptians followed the steps of them who were gone before, they found them encamped at the sea side: all Pharao’s horse and chariots, and the whole army were in Phihahiroth before Beelsephon.
10 Da Fir’auna ya yi kusa, Isra’ilawa suka ɗaga idanu sai suka hange Masarawa daga nesa suna tā da ƙura suna zuwa. Sai suka tsorata ƙwarai, suka kuwa yi kuka ga Ubangiji.
And when Pharao drew near, the children of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians behind them: and they feared exceedingly, and cried to the Lord.
11 Suka ce wa Musa, “Don babu makabarta a Masar ne, ka kawo mu a hamada mu mutu? Me ka yi mana ke nan da ka fitar da mu daga Masar?
And they said to Moses: Perhaps there were no graves in Egypt, therefore thou hast brought us to die in the wilderness: why wouldst thou do this, to lead us out of Egypt?
12 Ba mu faɗa maka a Masar ba, cewa ‘Ka bar mu mu bauta wa Masarawa’? Ai, da ya fi mana mu bauta wa Masarawa, da a ce mu mutu a hamada!”
Is not this the word that we spoke to thee in Egypt, saying: Depart from us that we may serve the Egyptians? for it was much better to serve them, than to die in the wilderness.
13 Musa ya amsa wa mutane ya ce, “Kada ku ji tsoro. Ku tsaya dai ku ga ceton da Ubangiji zai kawo muku yau. Masarawan da kuke gani yau, ba za ku ƙara ganinsu ba.
And Moses said to the people: Fear not: stand and see the great wonders of the Lord, which he will do this day: for the Egyptians, whom you see now, you shall see no more for ever.
14 Ubangiji zai yi yaƙi dominku, ku dai tsaya kurum.”
The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.
15 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Don me kake mini kuka? Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa su ci gaba da tafiya.
And the Lord said to Moses: Why criest thou to me? Speak to the children of Israel to go forward.
16 Ka ɗaga sandanka, ka miƙa shi bisa teku don ruwa yă rabu domin Isra’ilawa su wuce cikin teku a kan busasshiyar ƙasa.
But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch forth thy hand over the sea, and divide it: that the children of Israel may go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
17 Zan taurare zukatan Masarawa su shiga don su bi su. Ta haka zan ci nasara bisa Fir’auna da rundunansa, da keken yaƙinsa, da mahayan dawakansa.
And I will harden the heart of the Egyptians to pursue you: and I will be glorified in Pharao, and in all his host, and in his chariots, and in his horsemen.
18 Masarawa za su sani ni ne Ubangiji sa’ad da na sami nasara bisa kan Fir’auna, da keken yaƙinsa, da mahayan dawakansa.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall be glorified in Pharao, and in his chariots and in his horsemen.
19 Sai mala’ikan Allah wanda yake tafiya a gaban sojojin Isra’ila, ya janye, ya koma bayansu. Al’amudin girgije shi ma ya koma, ya tsaya a bayansu,
And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removing, went behind them: and together with him the pillar of the cloud, leaving the forepart,
20 ya dawo tsakanin sojojin Masar da na Isra’ila. Duk dare, girgijen ya jawo duhu ga gefe ɗaya, haske kuma ga ɗaya gefen; saboda haka ba wanda ya kusaci wani duk dare.
Stood behind, between the Egyptians’ camp and the camp of Israel: and it was a dark cloud, and enlightening the night, so that they could not come at one another all the night.
21 Da Musa ya miƙa hannunsa a bisa teku, sai Ubangiji ya tura teku baya da iskar gabas mai ƙarfi duk dare, ya maishe shi busasshiyar ƙasa. Ruwa ya rabu,
And when Moses had stretched forth his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by a strong and burning wind blowing all the night, and turned it into dry ground: and the water was divided.
22 sai Isra’ilawa suka wuce cikin teku a kan busasshiyar ƙasa, ruwan ya zama musu katanga dama da hagu.
And the children of Israel went in through the midst of the sea dried up: for the water was as a wall on their right hand and on their left.
23 Masarawa suka bi su da dukan dawakan Fir’auna, da kekunan yaƙi, da mahayan, suka bi su cikin teku.
And the Egyptians pursuing went in after them, and all Pharao’s horses, his chariots and horsemen through the midst of the sea,
24 Da asubahin fāri, sai Ubangiji ya dubi ƙasa a kan sojojin Masarawa daga al’amudin wuta da kuma girgije, sai ya sa suka ruɗe.
And now the morning watch was come, and behold the Lord looking upon the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, slew their host.
25 Ya sa ƙafafun keken yaƙinsu suka fita don su kāsa tuƙi. Sai Masarawa suka ce, “Bari mu gudu daga Isra’ilawa gama Ubangiji yana yaƙi dominsu gāba da Masar.”
And overthrew the wheels of the chariots, and they were carried into the deep. And the Egyptians said: Let us flee from Israel: for the Lord fighteth for them against us.
26 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Miƙa hannunka bisa teku don ruwa yă koma kan Masarawa, da keken yaƙinsu, da kuma mahayansu.”
And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch forth they hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and horsemen.
27 Musa ya miƙa hannunsa a bisa tekun, da wayewar gari kuwa teku ya koma wurinsa na dā. Masarawa suka yi ƙoƙari su gudu, sai Ubangiji ya tura su cikin teku.
And when Moses had stretched forth his hand towards the sea, it returned at the first break of day to the former place: and as the Egyptians were fleeing away, the waters came upon them, and the Lord shut them up in the middle of the waves.
28 Ruwan ya komo ya rufe keken yaƙin da mahayan, dukan sojojin Fir’aunan da suka bi bayan Isra’ilawa cikin teku, ba ko ɗaya da ya tsira.
And the waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen of all the army of Pharao, who had come into the sea after them, neither did there so much as one of them remain.
29 Amma Isra’ilawa suka wuce cikin teku a busasshiyar ƙasa, ruwa kuwa ya yi musu katanga dama da hagu.
But the children of Israel marched through the midst of the sea upon dry land, and the waters were to them as a wall on the right hand and on the left:
30 A rana nan Ubangiji ya cece Isra’ila daga hannuwan Masarawa, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka ga gawawwakin Masarawa a bakin teku.
And the Lord delivered Israel on that day out of the hands of the Egyptians.
31 Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka ga iko mai girma da Ubangiji ya yi gāba da Masarawa, sai mutanen suka ji tsoron Ubangiji, suka amince da shi, da kuma bawansa Musa.
And they saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore, and the mighty hand that the Lord had used against them: and the people feared the Lord, and they believed the Lord, and Moses his servant.
