< Fitowa 9 >
1 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka je wurin Fir’auna ka ce masa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Allah na Ibraniyawa ya ce, “Ka bar mutanena su tafi, domin su yi mini sujada.”
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
2 In ka ƙi ka bar su su tafi, kana ta riƙonsu,
But if you continue to restrain them and refuse to let them go,
3 hannun Ubangiji zai kawo muguwar annoba a kan dabbobinka a gona, a kan dawakanka, da jakuna da raƙuma, da kuma a kan shanunka da tumaki da awaki.
then the hand of the LORD will bring a severe plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
4 Amma Ubangiji zai raba tsakanin dabbobin Isra’ila da na Masar, saboda kada wata dabbar Isra’ilawa ta mutu.’”
But the LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that no animal belonging to the Israelites will die.’”
5 Sai Ubangiji ya sa lokaci ya ce, “Gobe Ubangiji zai yi wannan a ƙasar.”
The LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”
6 Kashegari Ubangiji ya yi haka. Dukan dabbobin Masarawa suka mutu, amma babu dabba guda ta Isra’ilawan da ta mutu.
And the next day the LORD did just that. All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died.
7 Fir’auna ya aiki mutane su bincika, sai suka tarar babu dabba guda ta Isra’ilawan da ta mutu. Duk da haka zuciyar Fir’auna ta taurare, bai kuwa bar mutanen su tafi ba.
Pharaoh sent officials and found that none of the livestock of the Israelites had died. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the people go.
8 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa da Haruna, “Ɗibi tokar matoya cike da tafin hannuwanku, Musa kuwa zai watsa tokar sama a gaban Fir’auna.
Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from the furnace; in the sight of Pharaoh, Moses is to toss it into the air.
9 Za tă zama ƙura bisa dukan ƙasar Masar, sai marurai masu zafi su fiffito bisa mutane da dabbobi a dukan ƙasar.”
It will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on man and beast throughout the land.”
10 Sai suka ɗibi tokar matoya, suka tsaya a gaban Fir’auna, Musa ya watsa ta a iska, sai marurai masu zafi suka fiffito bisa mutane da dabbobi.
So they took soot from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh. Moses tossed it into the air, and festering boils broke out on man and beast.
11 Bokaye suka kāsa tsayawa a gaban Musa saboda maruran da suke bisansu da a kan dukan Masarawa.
The magicians could not stand before Moses, because the boils had broken out on them and on all the Egyptians.
12 Amma Ubangiji ya taurare zuciyar Fir’auna, bai kuwa saurare Musa da Haruna ba kamar yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya ce wa Musa.
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
13 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Tashi da sassafe, ka sadu da Fir’auna, ka ce masa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Ibraniyawa ya ce, Ka bar mutanena su tafi don su yi mini sujada,
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, stand before Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
14 ko kuwa a wannan lokaci zan aika da cikakkiyar annoba mai ƙarfi a kanka da a kan fadawanka da mutanenka, domin ka san cewa ba kama da ni a dukan duniya.
Otherwise, I will send all My plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.
15 Gama da ni kaina na miƙa hannuna na buge ka da jama’arka da annoba, ai, da an hallaka ku a duniya ƙaƙaf.
For by this time I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the earth.
16 Amma na bar ka ka rayu domin in nuna maka ikona, domin kuma sunana yă zama abin darajantawa a dukan duniya.
But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
17 Har yanzu kana gāba da mutanena, ba ka kuma bar su su tafi ba.
Still, you lord it over My people and do not allow them to go.
18 Saboda haka, gobe war haka, zan sa a yi ƙanƙara mai tsananin gaske, irin wadda Masar ba tă taɓa gani ba tun kahuwarta, har yă zuwa yanzu.
Behold, at this time tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.
19 Yanzu, ka ba da umarni a dawo da shanunku da kuma kome da kuke da shi wanda yake a gona zuwa gida, gama ƙanƙarar za tă kashe kowane mutum ko dabba wadda take a gona wadda ba a kawo cikin gida ba, sa’ad da ta fāɗo.’”
So give orders now to shelter your livestock and everything you have in the field. Every man or beast that remains in the field and is not brought inside will die when the hail comes down upon them.’”
20 Waɗansu daga cikin dattawan Fir’auna suka cika da tsoro saboda abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa, nan da nan suka shigo da dabbobinsu da bayinsu da sauri daga gona zuwa cikin gida.
Those among Pharaoh’s officials who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their servants and livestock to shelter,
21 Amma waɗanda ba su kula da maganar Ubangiji ba, suka bar bayinsu da dabbobi a gona.
but those who disregarded the word of the LORD left their servants and livestock in the field.
22 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Miƙa hannunka sama don a yi ƙanƙara a bisa dukan Masar, a bisa mutane da dabbobi, da bisa dukan abubuwan da suke girma a gonakin Masar.”
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt—on man and beast and every plant of the field throughout the land of Egypt.”
23 Da Musa ya miƙa sandansa sama, sai Ubangiji ya aiko da tsawa da ƙanƙara, da walƙiya har ƙasa. Ta haka Ubangiji ya yi ruwan ƙanƙara a bisa ƙasar Masar;
So Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the earth. So the LORD rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
24 ƙanƙara ta fāɗo, walƙiya kuma tana ta wulƙawa. Wannan ce ƙanƙara mafi munin da aka taɓa yi, a dukan ƙasar Masar, tun tarihin kahuwarta na zaman al’umma.
The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the time it became a nation.
25 Ko’ina a Masar ƙanƙara ta bugi duk abin da yake a gonaki, mutane da dabbobi, ta bugi duk ganyaye da suke a gonaki, ta kuma ragargaza kowane itace.
Throughout the land of Egypt, the hail struck down everything in the field, both man and beast; it beat down every plant of the field and stripped every tree.
26 Wuri guda kaɗai da ba a yi ruwan ƙanƙara ba, shi ne yankin Goshen, inda Isra’ilawa suke.
The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.
27 Sai Fir’auna ya aika a kira Musa da Haruna. Ya ce musu, “A wannan karo na yi zunubi. Ubangiji, shi ne da gaskiya, ni da mutane mu ke da kuskure.
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This time I have sinned,” he said. “The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28 Ku roƙi Ubangiji, yă tsai da tsawar da ƙanƙarar. Ni kuwa na yi alkawari zan bar ku ku tafi, ba za ku ƙara tsayawa a nan ba.”
Pray to the LORD, for there has been enough of God’s thunder and hail. I will let you go; you do not need to stay any longer.”
29 Musa ya amsa, “To, da kyau, da zarar na fita daga birnin, zan yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, tsawar za tă tsaya, ƙanƙarar kuma za tă daina, don ku sani cewa duniya ta Ubangiji ce.
Moses said to him, “When I have left the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
30 Amma na san cewa kai da fadawanka, har wa yau ba ku ji tsoron Ubangiji Allah ba tukuna.”
But as for you and your officials, I know that you still do not fear the LORD our God.”
31 (Rama da sha’ir suka lalace, gama sha’ir ya riga ya nuna, rama kuwa tana fid da kai.
(Now the flax and barley were destroyed, since the barley was ripe and the flax was in bloom;
32 Alkama da gero kam, ba a hallaka su ba, gama lokacin nunansu bai yi ba tukuna.)
but the wheat and spelt were not destroyed, because they are late crops.)
33 Sai Musa ya tashi daga gaban Fir’auna, ya fita daga birni. Da ya miƙa hannuwansa ta wajen Ubangiji, sai tsawa da ƙanƙara suka tsaya, kwararowar ruwa kuma ta ɗauke.
Then Moses departed from Pharaoh, went out of the city, and spread out his hands to the LORD. The thunder and hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured down on the land.
34 Da Fir’auna ya ga cewa ruwa da ƙanƙara da tsawa sun daina, sai ya sāke yin zunubi. Shi da fadawansa, suka taurare zukatansu.
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had ceased, he sinned again and hardened his heart—he and his officials.
35 Ta haka zuciyar Fir’auna ta taurare, bai kuwa bar Isra’ilawa suka tafi ba, kamar yadda Ubangiji ya riga ya faɗa ta wurin Musa.
So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
