< Fitowa 4 >
1 Musa ya amsa ya ce, “In ba su gaskata ni ba, suka kuma ce, ‘Ubangiji bai bayyana gare ka ba fa’?”
Moses answered, “But, behold, they will not believe me, nor listen to my voice; for they will say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”
2 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Mene ne wannan a hannunka?” Musa ya amsa ya ce, “Sanda.”
The LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” 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.
He said, “Throw it on the ground.” He threw it on the ground, and it became a snake; and Moses ran away 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.
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand, and take it by the tail.” He stretched out his hand, and took hold of it, and it became a rod in his hand.
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.”
“This is so that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.”
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.
The LORD said furthermore to him, “Now put your hand inside your cloak.” He put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white 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.
He said, “Put your hand inside your cloak again.” He put his hand inside his cloak again, and when he took it out of his cloak, behold, it had turned again as 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.
“It will happen, if they will not believe you or listen to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter 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.”
It will happen, if they will not believe even these two signs or listen to your voice, that you shall take of the water of the river, and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take out of the river will become blood on 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.”
Moses said to the LORD, “O Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before now, nor since you have spoken to your servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.”
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?
The LORD said to him, “Who made man’s mouth? Or who makes one mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Isn’t it I, the LORD?
12 Yanzu tafi, zan taimake ka ka yi magana, zan kuma koya maka abin da za ka faɗa.”
Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak.”
13 Amma Musa ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, ina roƙonka, ka nemi wani ka aika.”
Moses said, “Oh, Lord, please send someone else.”
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.
The LORD’s anger burned against Moses, and he said, “What about Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Also, behold, he is coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
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.
You shall speak to him, and put the words in his mouth. I will be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do.
16 Zai yi magana da mutane a madadinka, zai zama kamar bakinka, kai kuwa kamar Allah a gare shi.
He will be your spokesman to the people. It will happen that he will be to you a mouth, and you will be to him as God.
17 Amma ka ɗauki wannan sanda a hannunka domin yă aikata mu’ujizan.”
You shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.”
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.”
Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, “Please let me go and return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive.” Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.”
19 Ubangiji ya riga ya gaya wa Musa a Midiyan, “Koma Masar, domin dukan mutanen da suke neman su kashe ka sun mutu.”
The LORD said to Moses in Midian, “Go, return into Egypt; for all the men who sought your 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.
Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. Moses took God’s rod 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.
The LORD said to Moses, “When you go back into Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.
22 Sa’an nan ka gaya wa Fir’auna, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce; Isra’ila shi ne ɗan farina,
You shall tell Pharaoh, ‘The LORD says, Israel is my son, my firstborn,
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 have said to you, “Let my son go, that he may serve me;” and you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your firstborn 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.
On the way at a lodging place, the LORD met Moses and wanted to kill 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.”
Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me.”
26 Sai Ubangiji ya ƙyale shi. (A lokacin ta ce “angon jini,” tana nufin kaciya.)
So he let him alone. Then she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision.
27 Ubangiji ya ce wa Haruna, “Tafi cikin hamada ka sadu da Musa.” Sai ya sadu da Musa a dutsen Allah, ya sumbace shi.
The LORD said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness to meet Moses.” He went, and met him on God’s mountain, and kissed him.
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.
Moses told Aaron all the LORD’s words with which he had sent him, and all the signs with which he had instructed him.
29 Musa da Haruna suka tattara dukan dattawan Isra’ilawa,
Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all 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,
Aaron spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of 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.
The people believed, and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.
