Fitowa 8
1 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka je wurin Fir’auna, ka ce masa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, ka bar mutanena su tafi domin su yi mini sujada.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back to the king and tell him, ‘Yahweh says that you must let my people go, in order that they can worship me [in the desert].
2 In ka ƙi barinsu, zan hore ka da annoban kwaɗi a dukan ƙasarka.
But if you refuse to let them go, I will punish you by sending frogs to cover your country.
3 Nilu zai cika da kwaɗi. Za su haura zuwa cikin fadanka da kan gadonka, cikin gidajen bayinka da kan mutanenka, cikin kwanonin toye-toyenka da na cin abincinka.
[Not only] will the Nile [River] be full of frogs, [but] the frogs will come up [out of the river] into your palace. They will come into your bedroom and onto your bed. They will be in the houses of your officials and all [the rest of] your people. They will even get into your ovens and your pans for mixing the materials for baking bread.
4 Kwaɗin nan za su yi ta tsalle a kanka, da kan mutanenka, da kuma kan dukan bayinka.’”
The frogs will jump up on you and your officials and [all the rest of] your people.’”
5 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ce wa Haruna, ‘Ka miƙa hannunka da sandanka bisa koguna da rafuffuka da kuma kududdufai, ka sa kwaɗi su fito su mamaye ƙasar Masar.’”
Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Say this to Aaron: ‘Hold your stick in your hand and stretch it out [as though you were stretching it] over the river, the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up [from all this water and] cover the land of Egypt.’”
6 Sai Haruna ya miƙa hannunsa bisa ruwan Masar, kwaɗi kuwa suka fito, suka mamaye ƙasar Masar.
[After Moses/I told that to] Aaron, he stretched out his hand [as though he were stretching it] over all the water in Egypt. And the frogs came up [from the water and] covered Egypt.
7 Amma bokaye ma suka yi abubuwan nan ta wurin sihirinsu; suka sa kwaɗi suka fito suka mamaye ƙasar Masar.
But the men who performed magic did the same thing, and they caused [more] frogs to come up [from the water onto the land].
8 Fir’auna ya kira Musa da Haruna ya ce, “Yi addu’a ga Ubangiji yă ɗauke kwaɗi daga gare ni da mutanena, zan kuwa bar mutanenku su tafi su yi hadaya ga Ubangiji.”
Then the king summoned Moses/me and said, “Ask Yahweh to take away these frogs from me and my people. After that happens, I will allow your people to go, in order that they can offer sacrifices to Yahweh.”
9 Musa ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Na ba ka dama ka ba da lokacin da zan yi addu’a dominka da kuma bayinka da mutanenka, gidajenku kuwa za su rabu da kwaɗi, amma ban da waɗanda suke cikin Nilu.”
Moses/I said to the king, “I will be glad to pray for you and for your officials and for [the rest of] your people. [I will ask Yahweh] to get rid of the frogs from all your houses. The only frogs left will be [those] in the Nile [River]. Just tell me when I should pray.”
10 Fir’auna ya ce, “Gobe.” Musa ya amsa, “Za a yi kamar yadda ka faɗa, domin ka sani babu wani kamar Ubangiji, Allahnmu.
He replied, “Tomorrow.” So Moses/I said, “[I will do] what you say, and then you will know that Yahweh God, the one we [worship, is the only true god], and that there is no other god like him.
11 Kwaɗin za su bar ka da gidajenka, bayinka da mutanenka; za su kasance a Nilu ne kaɗai.”
The frogs will leave you and your officials and all [the rest of] your people. The only ones left will be in the Nile [River].”
12 Bayan Musa da Haruna sun bar Fir’auna, Sai Musa ya yi kuka ga Ubangiji saboda kwaɗin da ya kawo a bisa Fir’auna.
Aaron and Moses/I left the king. Then Moses/I prayed to Yahweh, [asking him to take away] all the frogs he had [brought to the king’s land].
13 Sai Ubangiji ya yi abin da Musa ya nema. Kwaɗin suka mutu a gidaje, da filaye, da kuma gonaki.
And Yahweh did just what Moses/I [asked him to do]. As a result, all the frogs in the houses, in their courtyards, and in the fields died.
14 Aka jibga su tsibi-tsibi, ƙasar ta yi ɗoyi saboda su.
The people gathered together all the dead frogs into big piles, and the land stank [from the smell].
15 Amma da Fir’auna ya ga an sami sauƙi, sai ya taurare, ya ƙi yă saurari Musa da Haruna kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya faɗa.
But when the king saw that [the problem] was ended, he became stubborn [IDM] [again]. And just as Yahweh had predicted, he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/we told him.
16 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ce wa Haruna, ‘Miƙa hannunka ka bugi ƙurar ƙasa,’ dukan ƙurar ƙasar Masar kuwa za tă zama ƙwari masu cizo.”
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell Aaron to strike the ground with his stick. [When he does that], all the fine particles of ground/dust will become gnats, all over the land of Egypt.”
17 Suka yi haka, da Haruna ya miƙa hannunsa da sandan, ya bugi ƙurar ƙasa, sai ƙwari masu cizo suka fito a kan mutane da dabbobi. Dukan ƙurar, ko’ina a ƙasar Masar ta zama cinnaku.
So they/we did that. Aaron struck the ground with his stick, and all over Egypt, the fine particles of ground/dirt became gnats. The gnats covered the people and all [their] animals.
18 Sa’ad da bokayen Fir’auna suka yi ƙoƙari yin sihiri iri na rufe ido domin su fito da kwari, sai suka kāsa. Ƙwari masu cizo kuwa suka rufe mutane da dabbobi.
The men who worked magic tried to cause gnats to appear, but they were unable to do it. So the gnats [stayed] on the Egyptian people and on their animals.
19 Sai bokaye suka ce wa Fir’auna, “Wannan fa da hannun Allah a ciki.” Amma zuciyar Fir’auna ta taurare, bai kuwa saurara ba, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya faɗa.
The men who worked magic said to the king, “It is God who has done this with his power [MTY]!” But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to us, just as Yahweh had predicted.
20 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka tashi da sassafe ka sadu da Fir’auna a lokacin da za shi kogi, ka ce masa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, bari mutanena su tafi, don su yi mini sujada.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Get up early [tomorrow] morning. [Go down] to the river and wait for the king. [When he comes to bathe] [MTY], say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh says to you: “Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert].
21 In ba ka bar mutanena suka tafi ba, zan turo da tarin ƙuda a kanka da bayinka, a kan mutanenka da cikin gidajenka. Gidajen Masarawa za su cika da ƙudaje, har ma da ƙasa inda za su taka.
[I warn you that] if you do not let my people go, I will send swarms of flies to you. They will come down on you and on your officials and on [the rest of] your people. The houses of all you Egyptians will be full of flies. They will [even] cover the ground.
22 “‘Amma zan keɓe yankin Goshen, inda mutanena suke don kada ƙudaje su taɓa wurin, domin ka sani cewa Ni, Ubangiji, ina cikin wannan ƙasa.
But when that happens, I will treat the Goshen region, where my people live, differently. There will be no swarms of flies there. In that way, you will know that I, Yahweh, am doing these things [here] in this land.
23 Zan sa iyaka tsakanin jama’ata da jama’arka. Gobe ne wannan mu’ujiza za tă auku.’”
I will distinguish clearly between [how I act toward] my people and [how I act toward] your people. And this plague is going to happen tomorrow!”’”
24 Ubangiji kuwa ya yi haka. Tarin ƙuda suka zubo a fadar Fir’auna da cikin gidajen bayinsa, da ko’ina a Masar, ƙasar kuwa ta lalace saboda ƙudaje.
[Early the next morning, Moses/I told that to the king, but the king would not pay any attention]. So Yahweh did what he said he would do. He sent great swarms of flies into the palace of the king and into the houses of his officials. The whole country of Egypt was ruined by the flies.
25 Sai Fir’auna ya kira Musa da Haruna ya ce, “Ku tafi, ku miƙa hadaya ga Allahnku, a nan a cikin ƙasar.”
Then the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You Israeli people can go and offer sacrifices to your god, [but you must do it] here in [this] land.”
26 Amma Musa ya ce, “Wannan ba zai yiwu ba. Hadayun da mukan miƙa wa Ubangiji, Allahnmu haram ne ga Masarawa. In kuwa muka miƙa hadayun da suke haram a idanunsu, ba za su jajjefe mu ba?
But Moses/I replied, “It would not be right [for us] to do that, because we will be offering sacrifices that are very offensive to the Egyptian people. If we offer sacrifices that the Egyptian people think are disgusting, they will kill us by throwing stones at us [RHQ]!
27 Dole mu yi tafiya kwana uku cikin hamada domin miƙa hadayu ga Ubangiji Allahnmu, yadda ya umarce mu.”
No, we need to travel for three days into the desert. There we will offer sacrifices to Yahweh, the God we worship, just as he commands (OR, has commanded) us.”
28 Fir’auna ya ce, “Zan bar ku ku tafi, don ku miƙa hadayu ga Ubangiji Allahnku, a cikin hamada, amma ba za ku tafi da nisa ba. Yanzu ku yi mini addu’a.”
So the king said, “I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, your god, in the desert. But you must not go very far. [Now] pray for me!”
29 Musa ya amsa, “Da zarar na bar ka, zan yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, gobe kuwa ƙudaje za su bar Fir’auna da fadawansa da kuma mutanensa. Sai dai a tabbata Fir’auna bai sāke yin ruɗi ta wurin ƙin barin mutane su tafi su miƙa hadayu ga Ubangiji ba.”
Moses/I said, “Listen [to me]! After I leave you, I will pray to Yahweh, [asking] that tomorrow [he will cause] the swarms of flies to leave you and your officials and [the rest of] your people. But do not deceive us again by refusing to let our people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh!”
30 Sa’an nan Musa ya rabu da Fir’auna, ya kuma yi addu’a ga Ubangiji,
Then Moses/I left the king and prayed to Yahweh.
31 Ubangiji kuwa ya yi abin da Musa ya roƙa. Ƙudaje suka rabu da Fir’auna da fadawansa da kuma mutanensa; ba ƙudan da ya rage.
And Yahweh did what Moses/I asked, and he got rid of the swarms of flies from [around] the king and his officials and [the rest of] his people. No flies remained.
32 Amma a wannan lokaci ma, Fir’auna ya taurare zuciyarsa, bai kuma bar mutanen suka tafi ba.
But the king was stubborn [IDM] this time also, and he did not allow the Israeli people to go.
