< Fitowa 4 >
1 Musa ya amsa ya ce, “In ba su gaskata ni ba, suka kuma ce, ‘Ubangiji bai bayyana gare ka ba fa’?”
And Moses answered and said, If they believe me not, and do not hearken to my voice (for they will say, God has not appeared to thee), what shall I say to them?
2 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Mene ne wannan a hannunka?” Musa ya amsa ya ce, “Sanda.”
And the Lord said to him, What is this thing that is in thine hand? and he said, A rod.
3 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Jefa shi ƙasa.” Musa ya jefa shi ƙasa, sai sandan ya zama maciji, Musa kuwa ya gudu daga gare shi.
And he said, Cast it on the ground: and he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses fled from it.
4 Sai Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Sa hannunka ka ɗauke shi ta wutsiya.” Sai Musa ya miƙa hannu, ya kama macijin, macijin kuwa ya dawo sanda a hannunsa.
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch forth thine hand, and take hold of its tail: so he stretched forth his hand and took hold of the tail,
5 Ubangiji ya ce, “Wannan zai sa su ba da gaskiya cewa Ubangiji, Allah na kakanninsu, Allah na Ibrahim, Allah na Ishaku, da kuma Allah da Yaƙub, ya bayyana gare ka.”
and it became a rod in his hand, —that they may believe thee, that the God of thy fathers has appeared to thee, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.
6 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce, “Sa hannunka cikin rigarka.” Sai Musa ya sa hannunsa cikin rigarsa, sa’ad da ya fitar da shi, sai hannun ya a kuturce fari fat, kamar ƙanƙara.
And the Lord said again to him, Put thine hand into thy bosom; and he put his hand into his bosom, and brought his hand out of his bosom, and his hand became as snow.
7 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Yanzu, mayar da hannunka a rigarka.” Sai Musa ya sa hannunsa cikin rigarsa, da ya fitar da shi, sai hannun ya koma kamar sauran jikinsa.
And he said again, Put thy hand into thy bosom; and he put his hand into his bosom, and brought his hand out of his bosom, and it was again restored to the complexion of his [other] flesh.
8 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce, “In ba su gaskata ba, ko kuma ba su kula da mu’ujiza ta fari ba, wataƙila su gaskata da ta biyun.
And if they will not believe thee, nor hearken to the voice of the first sign, they will believe thee [because] of the voice of the second sign.
9 Amma in ba su gaskata mu’ujizan nan biyu ba, ko kuwa ba su saurare ka ba, sai ka ɗibo ruwa daga Nilu, ka zuba a busasshiyar ƙasa. Ruwan da ka ɗebo daga kogin zai zama jini a ƙasar.”
And it shall come to pass if they will not believe thee for these two signs, and will not hearken to thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river and pour it upon the dry land, and the water which thou shalt take from the river shall be blood upon the dry land.
10 Musa ya ce wa Ubangiji, “Ya Ubangiji, ni ban mai iya magana ba ne, ban taɓa iya ba, ko a yanzu ma, bayan ka yi magana da ni, gama ni mai nauyin baki ne, mai nauyin harshe kuma.”
And Moses said to the Lord, I pray, Lord, I have not been sufficient in former times, neither from the time that thou hast begun to speak to thy servant: I am weak in speech, and slow-tongued.
11 Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Wa ya ba mutum bakinsa? Wa yake maishe shi kurma ko bebe? Wa yake ba shi gani ko yă makanta shi? Ashe ba Ni Ubangiji ba ne?
And the Lord said to Moses, Who has given a mouth to man, and who has made the very hard of hearing, and the deaf, the seeing and the blind? have not I, God?
12 Yanzu tafi, zan taimake ka ka yi magana, zan kuma koya maka abin da za ka faɗa.”
And now go and I will open thy mouth, and will instruct thee in what thou shalt say.
13 Amma Musa ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, ina roƙonka, ka nemi wani ka aika.”
And Moses said, I pray thee, Lord, appoint another able [person] whom thou shalt send.
14 Sai Ubangiji ya yi fushi da Musa ya ce, “Ɗan’uwanka Haruna Balawe, ba ya nan ne? Na san ya iya magana. Ya riga ya kama hanya don yă sadu da kai, zai kuma yi farin ciki sa’ad da ya gan ka.
And the Lord was greatly angered against Moses, and said, Lo! is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he will surely speak to thee; and, behold, he will come forth to meet thee, and beholding thee he will rejoice within himself.
15 Za ka yi masa magana. Ka kuma sa masa maganata a baki; zan kuma taimake ku magana, in koya muku abin da za ku yi.
And thou shalt speak to him; and thou shalt put my words into his mouth, and I will open thy mouth and his mouth, and I will instruct you in what ye shall do.
16 Zai yi magana da mutane a madadinka, zai zama kamar bakinka, kai kuwa kamar Allah a gare shi.
And he shall speak for thee to the people, and he shall be thy mouth, and thou shalt be for him in things pertaining to God.
17 Amma ka ɗauki wannan sanda a hannunka domin yă aikata mu’ujizan.”
And this rod that was turned into a serpent thou shalt take in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt work miracles.
18 Sai Musa ya koma wurin Yetro surukinsa, ya ce masa, “Bari in koma wurin mutanena a Masar, in ga ko da mai rai a cikinsu.” Yetro ya ce, “Tafi, ka kuma sauka lafiya.”
And Moses went and returned to Jothor his father-in-law, and says, I will go and return to my brethren in Egypt, and will see if they are yet living. And Jothor said to Moses, Go in health. And in those days after some time, the king of Egypt died.
19 Ubangiji ya riga ya gaya wa Musa a Midiyan, “Koma Masar, domin dukan mutanen da suke neman su kashe ka sun mutu.”
And the Lord said to Moses in Madiam, Go, depart into Egypt, for all that sought thy life are dead.
20 Sai Musa ya ɗauki matarsa da’ya’yansa maza, ya sa su a kan jaki, suka kama hanya zuwa Masar. Ya kuma ɗauki sandan Allah a hannunsa.
And Moses took his wife and his children, and mounted them on the beasts, and returned to Egypt; and Moses took the rod [which he had] from God in his hand.
21 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Bayan ka koma Masar, ka tabbata ka aikata dukan mu’ujizan da na sa cikin ikonka a gaban Fir’auna. Amma zan taurare zuciyarsa domin kada yă bar mutanen su tafi.
And the Lord said to Moses, When thou goest and returnest to Egypt, see—all the miracles I have charged thee with, thou shalt work before Pharao: and I will harden his heart, and he shall certainly not send away the people.
22 Sa’an nan ka gaya wa Fir’auna, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce; Isra’ila shi ne ɗan farina,
And thou shalt say to Pharao, These things saith the Lord, Israel [is] my first-born.
23 na gaya maka, “Ka bar ɗana yă tafi domin yă yi mini sujada.” Amma ka ƙi ka bari yă tafi, saboda haka zan kashe ɗan farinka.’”
And I said to thee, Send away my people, that they may serve me: now if thou wilt not send them away, see, I will slay thy first-born son.
24 Ya zama kuwa sa’ad da Musa yake masauki a kan hanya sai Ubangiji ya gamu da shi, ya nema ya kashe shi.
And it came to pass [that] the angel of the Lord met him by the way in the inn, and sought to slay him.
25 Amma Ziffora ta ɗauki dutsen ƙanƙara mai ci, ta yanke loɓar ɗanta ta taɓa ƙafafun Musa da shi. Ta ce, “Tabbatacce kai angon jini ne a gare ni.”
and Sepphora having taken a stone cut off the foreskin of her son, and fell at his feet and said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched:
26 Sai Ubangiji ya ƙyale shi. (A lokacin ta ce “angon jini,” tana nufin kaciya.)
and he departed from him, because she said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched.
27 Ubangiji ya ce wa Haruna, “Tafi cikin hamada ka sadu da Musa.” Sai ya sadu da Musa a dutsen Allah, ya sumbace shi.
And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses; and he went and met him in the mount of God, and they kissed each other.
28 Sai Musa ya gaya wa Haruna dukan abin da Ubangiji ya aike yă faɗa, da kuma dukan mu’ujizan da ya umarce shi yă aikata.
And Moses reported to Aaron all the words of the Lord, which he sent, and all the things which he charged him.
29 Musa da Haruna suka tattara dukan dattawan Isra’ilawa,
And Moses and Aaron went and gathered the elders of the children of Israel.
30 sai Haruna ya gaya musu dukan abin da Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa. Ya kuma aikata mu’ujizan a gaban mutanen,
And Aaron spoke all these words, which God spoke to Moses, and wrought the miracles before the people.
31 sai suka gaskata. Sa’ad da suka ji cewa Ubangiji ya damu da su, ya kuma ga azabarsu, sai suka durƙusa suka yi sujada.
and the people believed and rejoiced, because God visited the children of Israel, and because he saw their affliction: and the people bowed and worshipped.
