Ọpụpụ 15
1 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis na ụmụ Izrel bụkuru Onyenwe anyị abụ dị otu a sị, “Aga m abụku Onyenwe anyị abụ nʼihi na o buliela onwe ya elu nke ukwuu. Ọ tụnyela ịnyịnya na onye na-agba ya nʼosimiri.
Then Moses and the children of Israel made this song to the Lord, and said, I will make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory: the horse and the horseman he has sent down into the sea.
2 “Onyenwe anyị bụ ike m na abụ m. Ọ ghọrọla m nzọpụta. Ọ bụ Chineke m, aga m etokwa ya, Chineke nke nna m, aga m ebulikwa ya elu.
The Lord is my strength and my strong helper, he has become my salvation: he is my God and I will give him praise; my father's God and I will give him glory.
3 Onye na-ebu agha ka Onyenwe anyị bụ. Nʼezie, aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị.
The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.
4 Ụgbọ agha Fero na usuu ndị agha ya, ka ọ tụnyere nʼosimiri ahụ. Ndịisi agha Fero, ndị ahọrọ ahọ, ka o mere ka Osimiri Uhie rie.
Pharaoh's war-carriages and his army he has sent down into the sea: the best of his captains have gone down into the Red Sea.
5 Ogbu osimiri ahụ ekpuchiela ha. Nʼime mmiri ahụ dị omimi ka ha rịdaruru dịka nkume.
They were covered by the deep waters: like a stone they went down under the waves.
6 Aka nri gị Onyenwe anyị, dị ike, dịkwa ebube. Aka nri gị, Onyenwe anyị na-etipịasị ndị iro.
Full of glory, O Lord, is the power of your right hand; by your right hand those who came against you are broken.
7 “Nʼoke ike nke ịdị elu gị, Ị lụgbuola ndị niile na-ebili imegide gị. I zipụrụ iwe gị dị ọkụ, o repịara ha dịka igbugbo ọka.
When you are lifted up in power, all those who come against you are crushed: when you send out your wrath, they are burned up like dry grass.
8 I sitere na nkuume nke oghere imi gị, mee ka mmiri osimiri guzoro ọtọ. Mmiri ahụ na-erugharị erugharị guzoro nʼotu ebe dịka mgbidi; ogbu mmiri kpụkọtara rahụ nʼala ala nsọtụ nke osimiri.
By your breath the waves were massed together, the flowing waters were lifted up like a pillar; the deep waters became solid in the heart of the sea.
9 Onye iro nyara isi sị, ‘Aga m achụso ha, gafee ha. Aga m ekesa ihe a kwatara nʼagha. Nyejuo onwe m afọ site na ha. Aga m amịpụta mma agha m. Jiri aka m laa ha nʼiyi.’
Egypt said, I will go after them, I will overtake, I will make division of their goods: my desire will have its way with them; my sword will be uncovered, my hand will send destruction on them.
10 Ma i kupụrụ ikuku si gị nʼimi pụta, osimiri riri ha, ha mikpuru nʼime osimiri ukwu ahụ dịka igwe.
You sent your wind and the sea came over them: they went down like lead into the great waters.
11 Onye dịka gị Onyenwe anyị, nʼetiti chi niile? Onye dịka gị? Onye dị ebube nʼịdị nsọ. Onye otuto ya na-eyi egwu. Onye na-arụ ọrụ dị ebube?
Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? who is like you, in holy glory, to be praised with fear, doing wonders?
12 “I setịpụrụ aka nri gị, ala meghere ọnụ ya loo ndị iro gị niile.
When your right hand was stretched out, the mouth of the earth was open for them.
13 Site nʼebere gị, i dupụtara ndị ị zọpụtara. Sitekwa nʼike gị dị ebube, i duru ha ruo nʼebe obibi gị dị nsọ.
In your mercy you went before the people whom you have made yours; guiding them in your strength to your holy place.
14 Ụwa niile nụrụ ya, maa jijiji. Ndị Filistia ka oke ihe mgbu bịakwasịrị.
Hearing of you the peoples were shaking in fear: the people of Philistia were gripped with pain.
15 Ndị eze Edọm ga-anọ nʼọnọdụ obi ịlọ mmiri. Ndị ndu Moab niile ga-abụ ndị ọma jijiji ga-ejidekwa, ndị Kenan niile nʼọnọdụ ịtụ egwu ga-agbaze;
The chiefs of Edom were troubled in heart; the strong men of Moab were in the grip of fear: all the people of Canaan became like water.
16 oke egwu na oke ụjọ ejidela ha. Site nʼike nke aka gị, ha ga-anọ jụụ dịka nkume, tutu ruo mgbe ndị gị, Onyenwe anyị, gafechara, tutu ruo mgbe ndị gị, ndị ị zụtara nye onwe gị, gafechara.
Fear and grief came on them; by the strength of your arm they were turned to stone; till your people went over, O Lord, till the people went over whom you have made yours.
17 Gị onwe gị ga-akpọbata ha, kụọ ha dịka mkpụrụ, nʼelu ugwu nke ihe nketa gị. Nʼebe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị, i mere ka ọ bụrụ ebe obibi gị, ebe nsọ ahụ, Onyenwe anyị, nke i ji aka gị tọọ ntọala ya.
You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands.
18 “Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ eze ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi.”
The Lord is King for ever and ever.
19 Mgbe ịnyịnya Fero, na ụgbọ agha ya, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya, gbabanyere nʼosimiri, Onyenwe anyị mere ka mgbidi mmiri ahụ dagbuo ha. Ma ụmụ Izrel sitere nʼala mmiri kọrọ gafee.
For the horses of Pharaoh, with his war-carriages and his horsemen, went into the sea, and the Lord sent the waters of the sea back over them; but the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land.
20 Nʼoge ahụ, Miriam onye amụma nwanyị, nwanne Erọn weere ịgba iti egwu nʼaka ya, duo ndị inyom ndị so ya, jiri ịgba egwu nke ha na-etekwa egwu.
And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances.
21 Miriam bụrụ abụ sị ha, “Bụkuonụ Onyenwe anyị abụ, nʼihi na ọ bụ onye e buliri elu nke ukwu. Ịnyịnya na ndị na-agba ha, ka ọ tụnyere nʼime osimiri.”
And Miriam, answering, said, Make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory; the horse and the horseman he has sent into the sea.
22 Mgbe ihe ndị a mesịrị, Mosis nọgidere na-edu ụmụ Izrel. Ha sitere nʼOsimiri Uhie ahụ bilie ije, jeruo ọzara Shua. Ha jere ije nʼime ọzara abalị atọ, ma ha achọtaghị mmiri ọṅụṅụ
Then Moses took Israel forward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the waste land of Shur; and for three days they were in the waste land where there was no water.
23 Mgbe ha ruru Mara, ha enweghị ike ịṅụ mmiri dị nʼebe ahụ, nʼihi na mmiri ahụ na-elu ilu. (Ọ bụ ilu ilu a mere e ji kpọọ ya Mara.)
And when they came to Marah, the water was no good for drinking, for the waters of Marah were bitter, which is why it was named Marah.
24 Nʼebe a, ụmụ Izrel malitere itamu ntamu, megide Mosis sị, “Olee mmiri anyị ga-aṅụ?”
And the people, crying out against Moses, said, What are we to have for drink?
25 Mosis tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa. Onyenwe anyị gosiri Mosis osisi ọ ga-atụnye nʼime mmiri ahụ. Mgbe Mosis mere otu a, mmiri ahụ malitere ịdị ụtọ ọṅụṅụ. Ọ bụkwa na Mara ka Onyenwe anyị nọ nye ha ụkpụrụ ya na iwu ya maka iji ya nwalee ha.
And in answer to his prayer, the Lord made him see a tree, and when he put it into the water, the water was made sweet. There he gave them a law and an order, testing them;
26 Ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na unu ga-ege ntị nke ọma nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, mee ihe ziri ezi nʼanya ya, ọ bụrụkwa na unu eleruo anya idebe iwu ya na ụkpụrụ ya niile, ọ dịghị ọrịa nke m tinyere nʼahụ ndị Ijipt nke m ga-etinye nʼahụ unu. Nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye na-agwọ unu ọrịa niile.”
And he said, If with all your heart you will give attention to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his eyes, giving ear to his orders and keeping his laws, I will not put on you any of the diseases which I put on the Egyptians: for I am the Lord your life-giver.
27 Ha bịaruru nʼobodo Elim, ebe e nwere isi iyi mmiri ala na-asọpụta dị iri na abụọ, na iri osisi nkwụ asaa. Ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha nʼakụkụ mmiri ahụ.
And they came to Elim where there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees: and they put up their tents there by the waters.
