< Fitowa 14 >
1 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And YHWH speaks 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 sons of Israel, and they turn back and encamp before Pi-Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Ba‘al-Zephon; you encamp in front of it by the sea,
3 Fir’auna zai yi tsammani, ‘Aha, Isra’ilawa sun rikice cikin ƙasar, hamada kuwa ta yimƙe su.’
and Pharaoh has said of the sons of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has shut on them;
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 have strengthened the heart of Pharaoh, and he has pursued after them, and I am honored by Pharaoh, and by all his force, and the Egyptians have known that I [am] YHWH”; and they do 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 is declared to the king of Egypt that the people have fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants is turned against the people, and they say, “What [is] this we have done, that we have sent Israel away from our service?”
6 Sai shi da keken yaƙinsa suka shirya, ya kuma ɗauki sojojinsa tare da shi.
And he harnesses his chariot, and he has taken 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 takes six hundred chosen chariots, even all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over them all;
8 Ubangiji ya taurare zuciyar Fir’auna sarkin Masar, domin yă bi Isra’ilawa waɗanda suke tafiya ba tsoro.
and YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursues after the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel are going out with a high 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 the Egyptians pursue after them, and all the chariot horses of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his force, overtake them, encamping by the sea, by Pi-Hahiroth, before Ba‘al-Zephon.
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 Pharaoh has drawn near, and the sons of Israel lift up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians are journeying after them, and they fear exceedingly, and the sons of Israel cry to YHWH.
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 say to Moses, “Because there are no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in a wilderness? What is this you have done to us—to bring us out from 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 this not the word which we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, Cease from us, and we serve the Egyptians; for [it is] better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in a 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 says to the people, “Do not fear, station yourselves, and see the salvation of YHWH, which He does for you today; for as you have seen the Egyptians today, you add no more to see them for all time;
14 Ubangiji zai yi yaƙi dominku, ku dai tsaya kurum.”
YHWH fights for you, and you keep silent.”
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 YHWH says to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Speak to the sons of Israel, and they journey;
16 Ka ɗaga sandanka, ka miƙa shi bisa teku don ruwa yă rabu domin Isra’ilawa su wuce cikin teku a kan busasshiyar ƙasa.
and you, lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand toward the sea, and cleave it, and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land.
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—behold, I am strengthening the heart of the Egyptians, and they go in after them, and I am honored by Pharaoh, and by all his force, by his chariots, and by 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 have known that I [am] YHWH, in My being honored by Pharaoh, by his chariots, and by 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 Messenger of God, who is going before the camp of Israel, journeys and goes at their rear; and the pillar of the cloud journeys from their front, and stands at their rear,
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.
and comes in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and the cloud and the darkness are, and he enlightens the night, and the one has not drawn near to the other 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 Moses stretches out his hand toward the sea, and YHWH causes the sea to go on by a strong east wind all the night, and makes the sea become dry ground, and the waters are cleaved,
22 sai Isra’ilawa suka wuce cikin teku a kan busasshiyar ƙasa, ruwan ya zama musu katanga dama da hagu.
and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land, and the waters [are] a wall to them, on their right 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 pursue, and go in after them (all the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen) into 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 it comes to pass, in the morning watch, that YHWH looks to the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubles the camp of the Egyptians,
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 turns aside the wheels of their chariots, and they lead them with difficulty, and the Egyptians say, “Let us flee from the face of Israel, for YHWH is fighting for them against the Egyptians.”
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 YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sea, and the waters turn back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their 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 Moses stretches out his hand toward the sea, and the sea turns back, at the turning of the morning, to its perennial flow, and the Egyptians are fleeing at its coming, and YHWH shakes off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea,
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 turn back, and cover the chariots and the horsemen, even all the force of Pharaoh, who are coming in after them into the sea—there has not been left even one of them.
29 Amma Isra’ilawa suka wuce cikin teku a busasshiyar ƙasa, ruwa kuwa ya yi musu katanga dama da hagu.
And the sons of Israel have gone on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters [are] a wall to them, on their right and on their left;
30 A rana nan Ubangiji ya cece Isra’ila daga hannuwan Masarawa, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka ga gawawwakin Masarawa a bakin teku.
and YHWH saves Israel out of the hand of the Egyptians in that day, and Israel sees the Egyptians dead on the seashore,
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 Israel sees the great hand with which YHWH has worked against the Egyptians, and the people fear YHWH, and remain steadfast in YHWH, and in His servant Moses.
