< Fitowa 2 >
1 Ana nan, sai wani Balawe ya auri wata Balawiya,
And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 ta kuwa yi ciki, ta haifi ɗa. Sa’ad da ta ga jaririn kyakkyawa ne, sai ta ɓoye shi har watanni uku.
And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
3 Amma da ba tă iya ɓoye shi kuma ba, sai ta yi kwandon kyauro ta shafa masa kwalta. Bayan haka sai ta sa jaririn a cikin kwandon, ta je ta ajiye kwandon tare da jaririn a cikin kyauro, a bakin kogin.
And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.
4 ’Yar’uwarsa ta tsaya da ɗan rata tana lura da abin da zai faru da shi.
And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him.
5 Sai’yar Fir’auna ta gangara zuwa kogi domin tă yi wanka, bayinta kuwa suna tafiya a bakin kogi. Sai ta ga kwandon a ciyawa, ta aiki ɗaya daga cikin masu hidimarta tă ɗauko mata.
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river side; and she saw the ark among the flags, and sent her handmaid to fetch it.
6 Da ta buɗe kwandon, sai ta ga yaro yana kuka, ta kuwa ji tausayinsa. Ta ce, “Wannan ɗaya daga cikin jariran Ibraniyawa ne.”
And she opened it, and saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.
7 Sai’yar’uwarsa ta tambayi’yar Fir’auna, ta ce, “In tafi in samo ɗaya daga cikin matan Ibraniyawa tă yi miki renon yaron?”
Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 Sai ta amsa ta ce, “I, tafi.” Sai yarinyar ta tafi ta kawo mahaifiyar yaron.
And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.
9 Diyar Fir’auna ta ce mata, “Ɗauki jaririn, ki yi mini renonsa, zan kuwa biya ki.” Saboda haka ta ɗauki yaron, ta yi renonsa.
And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 Sa’ad da ya yi girma, sai ta kawo shi wajen’yar Fir’auna, ya kuwa zama ɗanta, ta kuma ba shi suna Musa, tana cewa, “Na tsamo shi daga ruwa.”
And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses, and said, Because I drew him out of the water.
11 Wata rana, bayan Musa ya yi girma, sai ya haura, ya tafi inda mutanensa suke, ya kuma ga yadda suke shan wahala da aiki. Ya ga wani mutumin Masar yana dūkan mutumin Ibraniyawa, ɗaya daga cikin mutanensa.
And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he saw an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.
12 Da ya leƙa nan da can bai kuwa ga kowa ba, sai ya kashe mutumin Masar, ya ɓoye shi a yashi.
And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he smote the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 Kashegari ya fita, sai ya ga Ibraniyawa biyu suna faɗa. Ya tambayi mai laifin ya ce, “Don me kake bugun ɗan’uwanka, mutumin Ibraniyawa?”
And he went out the second day, and, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
14 Mutumin ya ce masa, “Wa ya mai da kai mai mulki da mai hukunci a kanmu? Kana so ne ka kashe ni kamar yadda ka kashe mutumin Masar nan?” Sai Musa ya tsorata, ya yi tunani ya ce, “To, fa, abin nan da na yi, ya zama sananne.”
And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? thinkest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely the thing is known.
15 Da Fir’auna ya ji wannan, sai ya yi ƙoƙari yă kashe Musa, amma Musa ya gudu daga wajen Fir’auna, ya tafi ƙasar Midiyan inda ya zauna kusa da wata rijiya.
Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
16 To, fa, akwai wani firist na Midiyan, yana da’ya’ya mata bakwai, suka zo su shayar da dabbobin mahaifinsu.
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 Sai waɗansu makiyaya suka zo suka kore su, amma Musa ya tashi ya taimake su ya shayar da dabbobinsu.
And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 Da’yan matan suka komo wurin Reyuwel mahaifinsu, sai ya tambaye su ya ce, “Yaya kuka dawo da wuri yau?”
And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon today?
19 Suka amsa suka ce, “Wani mutumin Masar ne ya taimake mu daga hannun waɗansu makiyaya. Har ma ya ɗebo ruwa ya shayar da dabbobin.”
And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.
20 Ya tambayi’yan matansa, “To ina yake? Don me kuka bar shi a can? A gayyace shi, yă zo, yă ci wani abu.”
And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
21 Musa ya yarda yă zauna da mutumin wanda ya ba da’yarsa Ziffora aure da Musa.
And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
22 Ziffora ta haifi wa Musa ɗa, ya kuma raɗa masa suna Gershom cewa, “Na zama baƙo a baƙuwar ƙasa.”
And she bare a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a sojourner in a strange land.
23 Ana nan dai, a kwana a tashi, sai sarkin Masar ya mutu. Isra’ilawa suka yi kuka mai zafi saboda bautarsu mai wuya, sai kukar neman taimakonsu saboda bauta, ya kai wurin Allah.
And it came to pass in the course of those many days, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
24 Allah kuwa ya ji kukansu sai ya tuna da alkawarinsa da Ibrahim da Ishaku da Yaƙub.
And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 Sai Allah ya dubi Isra’ilawa, ya kuma damu da su.
And God saw the children of Israel, and God took knowledge [of them].
