< 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 sung this canticle to the Lord: and said: Let us sing to the Lord: for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and the rider he hath thrown 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 praise, and he is become salvation to me: he is my God and I will glorify him: the God of my father, and I will exalt him.
3 Onye na-ebu agha ka Onyenwe anyị bụ. Nʼezie, aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị.
The Lord is as a man of war, Almighty 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.
Pharao’s chariots and his army he hath cast into the sea: his chosen captains are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 Ogbu osimiri ahụ ekpuchiela ha. Nʼime mmiri ahụ dị omimi ka ha rịdaruru dịka nkume.
The depths have covered them, they are sunk to the bottom like a stone.
6 Aka nri gị Onyenwe anyị, dị ike, dịkwa ebube. Aka nri gị, Onyenwe anyị na-etipịasị ndị iro.
Thy right hand, O Lord, is magnified in strength: thy right hand, O Lord, hath slain the enemy.
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.
And in the multitude of they glory thou hast put down thy adversaries: thou hast sent thy wrath, which hath devoured them like stubble.
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.
And with the blast of thy anger the waters were gathered together: the flowing water stood, the depth were gathered together in the midst 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.’
The enemy said: I will pursue and overtake, I will divide the spoils, my soul shall have its fill: I will draw my sword, my hand shall slay them.
10 Ma i kupụrụ ikuku si gị nʼimi pụta, osimiri riri ha, ha mikpuru nʼime osimiri ukwu ahụ dịka igwe.
Thy wind blew and the sea covered them: they sunk as lead in the mighty 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 to thee, among the strong, O Lord? who is like to thee, glorious in holiness, terrible and praiseworthy, doing wonders?
12 “I setịpụrụ aka nri gị, ala meghere ọnụ ya loo ndị iro gị niile.
Thou stretchedst forth thy hand, and the earth swallowed 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 thy mercy thou hast been a leader to the people which thou hast redeemed: and in thy strength thou hast carried them to thy holy habitation.
14 Ụwa niile nụrụ ya, maa jijiji. Ndị Filistia ka oke ihe mgbu bịakwasịrị.
Nations rose up, and were angry: sorrows took hold on the inhabitants of Philisthiim.
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;
Then were the princes of Edom troubled, trembling seized on the stout men of Moab: all the inhabitants of Chanaan became stiff.
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.
Let fear and dread fall upon them, in the greatness of thy arm: let them become unmoveable as a stone, until thy people, O Lord, pass by: until this thy people pass by, which thou hast possessed.
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.
Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance, in thy most firm habitation which thou hast made, O Lord; thy sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 “Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ eze ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi.”
The Lord shall reign 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 Pharao went in on horseback with his chariots and horsemen into the sea: and the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea: but the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst thereof.
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.
So Mary the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand: and all the women went forth after her with timbrels and with 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 she began the song to them, saying: Let us sing to the Lord, for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and his rider he hath thrown 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
And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the wilderness of Sur: and they marched three days through the wilderness, and found 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 they came into Mara, and they could not drink the waters of Mara, because they were bitter: whereupon he gave a name also agreeable to the place, calling it Mara, that is, bitterness.
24 Nʼebe a, ụmụ Izrel malitere itamu ntamu, megide Mosis sị, “Olee mmiri anyị ga-aṅụ?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying: What shall we 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.
But he cried to the Lord, and he shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. There he appointed him ordinances, and judgments, and there he proved him,
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.”
Saying: If thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, none of the evils that I laid upon Egypt, will I bring upon thee: for I am the Lord thy healer.
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 the children of Israel came into Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped by the waters.
