1 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka bar wannan wuri, kai da mutanen da ka fito da su daga Masar, ka haura zuwa ƙasar da na alkawarta da rantsuwa wa Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub cewa, ‘Zan ba zuriyarka.’
And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward from this place, you and the people whom you have taken up out of the land of Egypt, to that land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, To your seed will I give it.
2 Zan aika da mala’ika a gabanka in kuma kori Kan’aniyawa, Amoriyawa, Hittiyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da Yebusiyawa.
And I will send an angel before you, driving out the Canaanite and the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite:
3 Ka haura zuwa ƙasar da take zub da madara da zuma. Amma ba zan tafi tare da ku ba, saboda ku mutane ne masu taurinkai domin mai yiwuwa in hallaka ku a hanya.”
Go up to that land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, for you are a stiff-necked people, for fear that I send destruction on you while you are on the way.
4 Da mutane suka ji wannan mugun magana, sai suka fara makoki. Ba kuma wanda ya sa kayan ado.
Hearing this bad news the people were full of grief, and no one put on his ornaments.
5 Gama Ubangiji ya riga ya ce wa Musa, “Ka faɗa wa Isra’ilawa, ‘Ku mutane ne masu taurinkai. In na yi tafiya da ku ko na ɗan lokaci, mai yiwuwa in hallaka ku. Yanzu sai ku tuɓe kayan adonku, zan kuwa yanke shawara a kan abin da zan yi da ku.’”
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people: if I come among you, even for a minute, I will send destruction on you; so take off all your ornaments, so that I may see what to do with you.
6 Saboda haka Isra’ilawa suka tuttuɓe kayan adonsu a Dutsen Horeb.
So the children of Israel took off their ornaments at Mount Horeb, and did not put them on again.
7 Musa fa ya saba ɗaukan tenti yă kafa shi a bayan sansani da ɗan nisa, yana kiransa “Tentin Sujada.” Duk wanda yake neman wani abu daga wurin Ubangiji sai yă tafi Tentin Sujada a bayan sansani.
Now it was Moses' way to put up the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle, at some distance away; giving it the name of The Tent of meeting. And everyone desiring to make his prayer to the Lord went to the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle.
8 A sa’ad da kuma Musa ya fita zuwa Tentin, dukan mutanen sukan tashi su tsaya a ƙofofin tentinsu, suna kallon Musa, sai ya shiga tentin.
And whenever Moses went out to the Tent of meeting, all the people got up and everyone went to the door of his tent, looking after Moses till he went inside the Tent.
9 Yayinda Musa ya shiga cikin tentin, sai al’amudin girgije yă sauko, yă tsaya a ƙofar yayinda Ubangiji yana magana da Musa.
And whenever Moses went into the Tent, the pillar of cloud came down, and took its place by the door of the Tent, as long as the Lord was talking with Moses.
10 Lokacin da mutane suka ga al’amudin girgije a tsaye a ƙofar tentin, sai duk su miƙe tsaye su yi sujada, kowa a ƙofar tentinsa.
And all the people saw the cloud at the door of the Tent, and they went down on their faces, everyone at the door of his tent.
11 Ubangiji yakan yi magana da Musa fuska da fuska, kamar yadda mutum yake magana da abokinsa. Sa’an nan Musa yă koma sansani, amma saurayin nan Yoshuwa ɗan Nun mai taimakonsa ba ya barin tentin.
And the Lord had talk with Moses face to face, as a man may have talk with his friend. And when Moses came back to the tents, his servant, the young man Joshua, the son of Nun, did not come away from the Tent.
12 Musa ya ce wa Ubangiji, “Kana ta faɗa mini cewa, ‘Ka jagoranci mutane nan,’ amma ba ka faɗa mini wanda zai tafi tare da ni ba. Ga shi ka ƙara ce mini, ‘Na san ka, na san sunanka, ka kuma sami tagomashi a wurina.’
And Moses said to the Lord, See, you say to me, Be this people's guide on their journey, but you have not made clear to me whom you will send with me. But you have said, I have knowledge of you by name, and you have grace in my eyes.
13 In ka ji daɗina, ka koya mini hanyarka don in san ka, in kuma ci gaba da samun tagomashi daga gare ka. Ka tuna cewa wannan al’umma mutanenka ne.”
If then I have grace in your eyes, let me see your ways, so that I may have knowledge of you and be certain of your grace; and my prayer is that you will keep in mind that this nation is your people.
14 Ubangiji ya amsa ya ce, “Zan tafi tare da kai, zan kuma rage maka nauyin kaya.”
And he said, I myself will go with you and give you rest.
15 Musa kuwa ya ce masa, “In ba za tă tafi tare da mu ba, to, kada ka ɗaga mu daga nan.
And Moses said, If you yourself are not going with us, do not send us on from here.
16 Yaya wani zai sani ko ka ji daɗina da kuma mutanenka, in ba ka tafi tare da mu ba? Mene ne kuma zai bambanta ni da mutanenka daga sauran jama’ar da suke a duniya?”
For is not the fact of your going with us the sign that I and this people have grace in your eyes, so that we, that is, I and your people, are separate from all other people on the face of the earth?
17 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Zan yi yadda ka faɗa, gama ka sami tagomashi a wurina, na san ka, na kuma san sunanka.”
And the Lord said to Moses, I will do as you say: for you have grace in my eyes, and I have knowledge of you by your name.
18 Musa kuwa ya ce, “To, ka nuna mini ɗaukakarka.”
And Moses said, O Lord, let me see your glory.
19 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan wuce a gabanka, Ni Ubangiji zan yi shelar sunana a gabanka. Zan yi alheri ga duk wanda na so in yi masa alheri, zan nuna jinƙai ga duk wanda na so in yi masa jinƙai.
And he said, I will make all the light of my being come before you, and will make clear to you what I am; I will be kind to those to whom I will be kind, and have mercy on those on whom I will have mercy.
20 Amma ya ce, ba za ka ga fuskata ba, don ba mutumin da zai gan ni yă rayu.”
But it is not possible for you to see my face, for no man may see me and still go on living.
21 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce, “Ga wani wuri kusa da ni inda za ka tsaya bisa dutsen.
And the Lord said, See, there is a place near me, and you may take your place on the rock:
22 A sa’ad da ɗaukakata tana wucewa, zan sa ka a cikin tsaguwar dutsen, in rufe ka da hannuna har sai na wuce.
And when my glory goes by, I will put you in a hole in the rock, covering you with my hand till I have gone past:
23 Sa’an nan zan ɗauke hannuna, ka kuwa ga bayana; amma fuskata, ba za ka gani ba.”
Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back: but my face is not to be seen.
