Ọpụpụ 14
1 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel ka ha chigharịa azụ jee maa ụlọ ikwu ha na ncherita ihu Pi Hahirot, nke dị nʼetiti Migdol na osimiri. Ọ bụ nʼakụkụ osimiri, na ncherita ihu obodo Baal-Zefọn ka ha ga-ama ụlọ ikwu ha.
Speak to the children of Israel, and let them turn and encamp before the village, between Magdol and the sea, opposite Beel-sepphon: before them shall you encamp by the sea.
3 Fero ga-asị banyere ụmụ Izrel, ‘Ha na-awagharị gburugburu ala ahụ nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya ebe ọzara riri ha.’
And Pharao will say to his people, As for these children of Israel, they are wandering in the land, for the wilderness has shut them in.
4 Aga m eme ka obi Fero sie ike ka ọ chụso unu ọsọ nʼazụ, ma m ga-ewetara onwe m otuto site na Fero na ndị agha ya niile. Ndị Ijipt niile ga-ama na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.” Ndị Izrel mekwara otu ahụ.
And I will harden the heart of Pharao, and he shall pursue after them; and I will be glorified in Pharao, and in all his host, and all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so.
5 Mgbe a gwara eze Ijipt na ndị a agbaala ọsọ, obi Fero na ndị ozi ya gbanwere megide ndị Izrel. Ha sịrị, “Gịnị bụ ihe anyị mere, site na izipụ ndị Izrel nʼọrụ ife anyị?”
And it was reported to the king of the Egyptians that the people had fled: and the heart of Pharao was turned, and that of his servants against the people; and they said, What is this that we have done, to let the children of Israel go, so that they should not serve us?
6 Na-atụfughị oge, Fero rigoro nʼelu ụgbọ agha ya, duru ndị agha ya ịchụso ha.
So Pharao yoked his chariots, and led off all his people with himself:
7 Ọ chịịrị ụgbọ agha dị narị isii e leziri anya họpụta, tinyere ụgbọ agha Ijipt niile. Ndịisi agha ndị Ijipt nọcha nʼelu ha niile.
having also taken six hundred chosen chariots, and all the cavalry of the Egyptians, and rulers over all.
8 Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero eze Ijipt sie ike. Ọ chụsoro ụmụ Izrel, ndị na-aga nʼihu nʼije ha, na-atụghị egwu maọbụ ịda mba.
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao king of Egypt, and of his servants, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went forth with a high hand.
9 Ndị Ijipt chụsoro ha ọsọ, ịnyịnya Fero na ụgbọ agha, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya na ndị agha ndị ọzọ chụsoro ndị Izrel ọsọ chụkwute ha nʼebe ha na-ezu ike nʼakụkụ osimiri dị nso na Pi Hahirot na ncherita ihu Baal-Zefọn.
And the Egyptians pursued after them, and found them encamped by the sea; and all the cavalry and the chariots of Pharao, and the horsemen, and his host [were] before the village, over against Beel-sepphon.
10 Mgbe ndị agha Fero na-abịa nso, ndị Izrel lere anya nʼazụ, hụ ndị Ijipt ka ha na-abịa nso. Ha tụrụ egwu, tie mkpu akwa, kpọkuo Onyenwe anyị.
And Pharao approached, and the children of Israel having looked up, saw, and the Egyptians encamped behind them: and they were very greatly terrified, and the children of Israel cried to the Lord;
11 Ha jụrụ Mosis sị, “Ọ bụ na o nweghị ili dị nʼala Ijipt, i ji kwagide anyị ka anyị niile bịa nwụọ nʼebe a nʼọzara? Gịnị mere i ji kwagide anyị ka anyị hapụ Ijipt?
and said to Moses, Because there were no graves in the land of Egypt, have you brought us forth to kill [us] in the wilderness? What is this that you have done to us, having brought us out of Egypt?
12 Ọ bụ na anyị agwaghị gị nʼala Ijipt si gị, ‘Hapụ anyị ka anyị nọgide na-ejere ndị Ijipt ozi?’ Ọ gara akara anyị mma ị bụ ohu ndị Ijipt karịa ịnwụ nʼọzara.”
Is not this the word which we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, Let us alone that we may serve the Egyptians? for it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in this wilderness.
13 Mosis zaghachiri ha sị, “Unu atụla egwu. Guzosienụ ike. Unu ga-ahụ ụzọ dị ebube Onyenwe anyị ga-esi zọpụta unu taa. Ndị Ijipt a unu na-ahụ taa, unu agaghị ahụkwa ha ọzọ.
And Moses said to the people, Be of good courage: stand and see the salvation which is from the Lord, which he will work for us this day; for as you have seen the Egyptians today, you shall see them again no more for ever.
14 Nọrọnụ jii. Onyenwe anyị ga-alụrụ unu ọgụ.”
The Lord shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.
15 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji na-akpọku m. Gwa ụmụ Izrel ka ha gaa nʼihu.
and the Lord said to Moses, Why cry you to me? speak to the children of Israel, and let them proceed.
16 Welie mkpanaka gị elu. Setịpụ ya nʼelu osimiri ahụ ka o kewaa abụọ. Ụzọ ga-adịkwa nʼetiti osimiri ahụ. Ụmụ Izrel ga-esitekwa nʼala akọrọ gafee.
And do you lift up your rod, and stretch forth your hand over the sea, and divide it, and let the children of Israel enter into the midst of the sea on the dry land.
17 Aga m eme ka obi ndị Ijipt sie ike, ka ha sorokwa unu nʼazụ banye. Aga m ewetara onwe m otuto site na Fero, na ndị agha niile, na ụgbọ agha niile nakwa ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.
And behold! I will harden the heart of Pharao and of all the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them; and I will be glorified upon Pharao, and on all his host, and on his chariots and his horses.
18 Nʼoge ahụ, ndị Ijipt ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị. M ga-enweta nsọpụrụ site na Fero, na ụgbọ agha ya niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.”
And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I am glorified upon Pharao and upon his chariots and his horses.
19 Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi Chineke, onye na-aga nʼihu ndị agha Izrel, sitere nʼihu pụọ gaa nọdụ nʼazụ ha. Otu a kwa, ogidi igwe ojii ahụ sitere nʼihu gaa nʼazụ ha.
And the angel of God that went before the camp of the children of Israel removed and went behind, and the pillar of the cloud also removed from before them and stood behind them.
20 Nke a mere ka ogidi igwe ojii ahụ dịrị nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel na ndị Ijipt. Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị mere ka ogidi igwe ojii ahụ nye ụmụ Izrel ìhè, ma ndị Ijipt nọgidere nʼọchịchịrị. Otu a, ndị Ijipt enweghị ike bịarute nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ.
And it went between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and stood; and there was darkness and blackness; and the night passed, and they came not near to one another during the whole night.
21 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis setịpụrụ aka ya nʼelu Osimiri Uhie ahụ. Onyenwe anyị ji oke ifufe si nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, nke fere nʼabalị ahụ niile, nughachi osimiri ahụ, mee ka osimiri ahụ kebie ụzọ abụọ, ka ụzọ pụta nʼala osimiri ahụ.
And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the Lord carried back the sea with a strong south wind all the night, and made the sea dry, and the water was divided.
22 Ụmụ Izrel sitere nʼetiti osimiri ahụ gafee. Mmiri osimiri ahụ ghọọrọ mgbidi nʼaka nri ha ma nʼaka ekpe ha.
And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the water of it was a wall on the right hand and a wall on the left.
23 Mgbe ndị agha Ijipt na-achụ ha ọsọ hụrụ ha ka ha na-agafe, ha sogidere ha baa, ọ bụladị nʼetiti osimiri ahụ. Ndị agha Ijipt niile sooro ha, ya bụ, ụgbọ agha Fero, ndị agha ya na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya niile.
And the Egyptians pursued them and went in after them, and every horse of Pharao, and his chariots, and his horsemen, into the midst of the sea.
24 Nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, Onyenwe anyị ledatara anya site nʼogidi igwe ojii ahụ na-enye ihe. O legidere ndị agha Ijipt anya, tinyekwa ha ụjọ nʼobi nke mere na ha amakwaghị onwe ha.
And it came to pass in the morning watch that the Lord looked forth on the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and troubled the camp of the Egyptians,
25 O mebiri ụkwụ ụgbọ agha ha mee ka o siere ịnyịnya ha ike ịdọkpụ ụgbọ agha ndị ahụ. Mgbe ahụ, ndị Ijipt kwuru sị, “Ka anyị sinụ nʼịchụ ndị Izrel gbapụ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-alụrụ ha ọgụ, na-emegidekwa anyị.”
and bound the axle-trees of their chariots, and caused them to go with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians.
26 Mgbe ụmụ Izrel gafesịrị ruo nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ nke osimiri ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Setịpụ aka gị ọzọ ka mmiri ahụ kpuchigide ndị Ijipt, na ụgbọ agha ha niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ya.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch forth tine hand over the sea, and let the water be turned back to its place, and let it cover the Egyptians [coming] both upon the chariots and the riders.
27 Mosis setịpụrụ aka nʼelu osimiri ahụ. Nʼụtụtụ ya, mmiri osimiri ahụ sọghachiri gaa ebe ọ nọ na mbụ. Ndị Ijipt chọsịrị ụzọ ha si agbapụ ike, ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka osimiri ahụ kpuchie ha.
And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the water returned to its place toward day; and the Egyptians fled from the water, and the Lord shook off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 Osimiri ahụ kpuchigidere ụgbọ agha ha niile, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya, na ndị agha Fero niile ndị chụụrụ ụmụ Izrel baa nʼime osimiri ahụ. O nweghị otu onye nʼime ha fọdụrụ ndụ.
and the water returned and covered the chariots and the riders, and all the forces of Pharao, who entered after them into the sea: and there was not left of them even one.
29 Ma ụmụ Izrel esitelarị nʼala nke mmiri kọrọ gafee osimiri ahụ. Mgbe ha na-agafekwa, akụkụ abụọ nke osimiri ahụ guzoro ọtọ dịka mgbidi, nʼaka nri ha ma nʼaka ekpe ha.
But the children of Israel went along dry land in the midst of the sea, and the water was to them a wall on the right hand, and a wall on the left.
30 Site nʼụzọ dị otu a, Onyenwe anyị zọpụtara ụmụ Izrel site nʼaka ndị Ijipt. Ụmụ Izrel hụkwara ozu ndị Ijipt nʼikpere mmiri osimiri ahụ.
So the Lord delivered Israel in that day from the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead by the shore of the sea.
31 Ụmụ Izrel tụrụ egwu Onyenwe anyị mgbe ha hụrụ ihe ịrịbama ndị a Onyenwe anyị ji zọpụta ha site nʼaka ndị Ijipt. Ha kwenyere na Onyenwe anyị, kwenyekwa na Mosis ohu ya.
And Israel saw the mighty hand, the [things] which the Lord did to the Egyptians; and the people feared the Lord, and they believed God and Moses his servant.
