< Fitowa 7 >
1 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Duba, na maishe ka kamar Allah ga Fir’auna, ɗan’uwanka Haruna kuma zai zama annabinka.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—See! I have appointed thee to be God unto Pharaoh, —and, Aaron thy brother, shall be thy prophet!
2 Za ka faɗi kome da na umarce ka, ɗan’uwanka Haruna kuwa zai faɗa wa Fir’auna, yă bar Isra’ilawa su fita daga ƙasarsa.
Thou, shalt speak all that which I may command thee, and, Aaron thy brother, shall speak unto Pharaoh, and he shall let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
3 Amma zan taurare zuciyar Fir’auna, kuma ko da na ninka mu’ujizai da kuma alamu a Masar,
But, I, will suffer Pharaoh to harden his heart, —so will I multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 ba zai saurare ku ba. Don haka zan miƙa hannuna a kan Masar, in murƙushe ta da bala’i iri-iri, bayan haka zan fitar da taron mutanen Isra’ila daga ƙasar Masar ta wurin hukuntaina masu girma.
And Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, so will I lay my hand on Egypt, —and bring forth my hosts—my people the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, with great judgments.
5 Masarawa kuwa za su san cewa ni ne Ubangiji sa’ad da na miƙa hannuna a kan Masar, na kuma fitar da Isra’ilawa daga gare ta.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I, am Yahweh, when I have stretched forth my hand over Egypt, —and brought forth the sons of Israel out of their midst.
6 Musa da Haruna suka aikata yadda Ubangiji ya umarce su.
And Moses and Aaron did [so], —as Yahweh commanded them, so, did they.
7 Musa yana da shekara tamanin da haihuwa, Haruna kuma yana da shekara tamanin da uku, sa’ad da suka yi magana da Fir’auna.
Now Moses, was eighty years old, and, Aaron, eighty-three years old, —when they spake unto Pharaoh.
8 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa da Haruna,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying:
9 “Sa’ad da Fir’auna ya ce muku, ‘Aikata wani al’ajabi,’ sai ka ce wa Haruna, ‘Ɗauki sandanka ka jefa shi a ƙasa, a gaban Fir’auna,’ zai kuwa zama maciji.”
When Pharaoh shall speak unto you saying, Shew for yourselves a wonder, then shalt thou say unto Aaron, Take thy staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh let it become a sea-serpent.
10 Sai Musa da Haruna suka tafi wurin Fir’auna, suka yi yadda Ubangiji ya umarce su. Haruna ya jefa sandansa ƙasa, a gaban Fir’auna da bayinsa, sai sandan ya zama maciji.
So Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and did so as Yahweh had commanded, —and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and before his servants and it became a sea-serpent,
11 Fir’auna kuwa ya kira masu hikima da masu sihiri, sai bokayen Masarawa ma suka yi irin abubuwan nan da bokancinsu.
Then called Pharaoh also for the wise men and for the magicians, —and they too, the sacred scribes of Egypt with their secret arts, did in like manner;
12 Kowannensu ya jefa sandansa ƙasa, ya kuwa zama maciji. Amma sandan Haruna ya haɗiye sandunansu.
yea they cast down each man his staff, and they became sea-serpents, —but Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staves.
13 Duk da haka zuciyar Fir’auna ta taurare, bai kuwa saurare su ba, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya faɗa.
Then waxed bold the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them, —as spake Yahweh.
14 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Zuciyar Fir’auna taurariya ce, ya ƙi yă bar mutanen su tafi.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Dull, is the heart of Pharaoh, —he hath refused to let the people go.
15 Ka je wurin Fir’auna da safe, yayinda za shi kogi. Ka jira a bakin Nilu don ka sadu da shi, ka ɗauki sandan nan da ya canja zuwa maciji a hannunka.
Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning—lo! he is coming out to the waters, therefore shalt thou station thyself to meet him on the bank of the river, —and the staff which was turned into a serpent, shalt thou take in thy hand.
16 Sa’an nan ka ce masa, ‘Ubangiji, Allah na Ibraniyawa, ya aiko ni in faɗa maka, Ka bar mutanena su tafi domin su yi mini sujada a hamada. Amma har yanzu ba ka yi biyayya ba.
Then shalt thou say unto him—Yahweh God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee saying, —Let my people go, that they may serve me in the desert, —And lo! thou hast not hearkened hitherto.
17 Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, da wannan za ka san cewa ni ne Ubangiji. Da sandan da yake hannuna zan bugi ruwan Nilu, zai kuma zama jini.
Thus, saith Yahweh, Hereby, shalt thou know that, I, am Yahweh, —Lo! I, am smiting with the staff that is in my hand upon the waters that are in the river and they shall be turned to blood;
18 Kifi a ciki Nilu za su mutu, ruwan kuma zai yi ɗoyi; Masarawa ba za su iya shan ruwansa ba.’”
and, the fish that is in the river shall die and the river shall be loathsome, —and the Egyptians, shall disdain, to drink water out of the river.
19 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ce wa Haruna, ‘Ka ɗauki sandanka, ka miƙa hannunka kan ruwan Masar, kan kogunansu da rafuffukansu da kududdufansu da kuma dukan tafkunansu, za su zama jini.’ Jini zai kasance ko’ina a Masar, har ma a cikin abubuwan ajiyar ruwansu da aka yi da itace da kuma dutse.”
And Yahweh said unto Moses, —Say unto Aaron—Take thy staff, and stretch forth thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their streams over their rivers, and over their pools and over all their collections of water—that they may become blood, —so shall there be blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.
20 Musa da Haruna suka yi yadda Ubangiji ya umarta. Ya ɗaga sandansa a gaban Fir’auna da bayinsa, ya bugi ruwan Nilu, dukan ruwan kuwa ya zama jini.
And Moses and Aaron, did so, as Yahweh commanded, and he lifted high the staff, and smote the waters which were in the river, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, —and all the waters which were in the river were turned to blood;
21 Kifin da suke cikin Nilu suka mutu, kogin kuwa ya yi wari sosai yadda Masarawa ba su iya shan ruwan ba. Jini ya bazu ko’ina a Masar.
and the fish that was in the river, died and the river became loathsome, so that the Egyptians could not drink water out of the river, —thus came it to pass that blood was in all the land of Egypt.
22 Amma bokayen Masar ma suka yi abubuwan nan da sihirinsu, sai zuciyar Fir’auna ta taurare; bai saurari Musa da Haruna ba, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya faɗa.
And the sacred scribes of Egypt did in like manner with their secret arts, —so the heart of Pharaoh waxed bold and he hearkened not unto them, as spake Yahweh.
23 A maimakon yă saurara, sai ya juya ya koma fadarsa, bai ma damu da abin da aka yi ba.
Then Pharaoh, turned away, and entered into his house—neither applied he his heart, even to this.
24 Sai dukan Masarawa suka yi ta tonon gefen Nilu don su sami ruwan sha, domin ba su iya shan ruwan kogin ba.
And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink, —for they could not drink of the water of the river.
25 Kwana bakwai suka wuce bayan da Ubangiji ya bugi kogin.
And seven days were fulfilled, —after Yahweh had smitten the river.
