< Ọpụpụ 2 >
1 Nʼoge a, otu nwoke onye Hibru si nʼebo Livayị, gakwara lụọ otu nwaada onye Livayị.
Then there went a man of the house of Leui, and tooke to wife a daughter of Leui,
2 Nwanyị a tụụrụ ime, mụọ otu nwa nwoke. Mgbe ọ hụrụ na nwa ọhụrụ ahụ mara mma, o zoro ya nʼụlọ ọnwa atọ.
And the woman coceiued and bare a sonne: and when she saw that he was faire, she hid him three moneths.
3 Mgbe ọ na-enweghịkwa ike izo nwantakịrị a gaa nʼihu, o jiri ahịhịa papịrọs kpaa nkata, were korota tee nʼahụ nkata ahụ niile igbochi mmiri ịbata nʼime ya. O kunyere nwantakịrị ahụ nʼime ya buru nkata ahụ debe ya nʼakụkụ osimiri Naịl ebe ahịhịa mmiri na-eto.
But when she could no longer hide him, she tooke for him an arke made of reede, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and laide the childe therein, and put it among the bulrushes by the riuers brinke.
4 Nwanne nwantakịrị ahụ, nke nwanyị, gakwara guzo nʼebe dị anya na-eche nwantakịrị ahụ nche, ịhụ ihe ga-eme ya.
Now his sister stood a farre off, to wit what would come of him.
5 Ọ dịghị anya, ada Fero bịara nʼakụkụ osimiri Naịl ahụ ịsa ahụ. Mgbe ọ nọ na-asa ahụ, ụmụ agbọghọ na-ejere ya ozi malitere ịgagharị nʼakụkụ osimiri Naịl. Ma ada Fero lepụrụ anya hụ nkata ahụ nʼetiti riidi, zie otu nʼime ohu ya nwanyị ka ọ gaa bute ya.
Then ye daughter of Pharaoh came downe to wash her in the riuer, and her maidens walked by the riuers side: and when shee sawe the arke among the bulrushes, she sent her maide to fet it.
6 Mgbe o bupụtara ya, meghee ya, ada Fero hụrụ nwantakịrị ahụ ka ọ na-akwa akwa. O nwere ọmịiko nʼebe nwantakịrị ahụ nọ. Ọ sịrị, “Nwatakịrị a ga-abụrịrị otu nʼime ụmụ ndị Hibru.”
Then she opened it, and sawe it was a childe: and beholde, the babe wept: so she had compassion on it, and sayde, This is one of the Ebrewes children.
7 Mgbe ahụ, nwanne nwanyị nwantakịrị a jụrụ ada Fero sị, “Ọ bụ m gaa chọọrọ gị otu nwanyị nʼime ndị inyom Hibru ka ọ na-elekọtaara gị nwantakịrị a anya?”
Then said his sister vnto Pharaohs daughter, Shall I go and cal vnto thee a nurce of the Ebrew women to nurce thee the childe?
8 Ada Fero zaghachiri sị, “Ee, gaa mee otu ahụ.” Nwaagbọghọ ahụ gara ngwangwa nʼụlọ ha kpọọ nne nwantakịrị ahụ.
And Pharaohs daughter sayde to her, Goe. So the maide went and called the childes mother,
9 Mgbe ha bịaghachiri, ada Fero gwara nne nwantakịrị ahụ sị ya, “Kuru nwantakịrị a, gaa zụpụtara m ya. Aga m akwụ gị ụgwọ nke ọma.” Ya mere, nwanyị ahụ kuuru nwantakịrị ahụ, gaa zụọ ya.
To whome Pharaohs daughter sayde, Take this childe away, and nurce it for me, and I wil reward thee. Then the woman tooke the childe and nurced him.
10 Mgbe nwantakịrị ahụ tolitere, nne ya kulaara ya ada Fero, ka ọ bụrụ nwa ada Fero. Aha ada Fero gụrụ ya bụ Mosis, nʼihi ọ sịrị, “Esi m na mmiri gụpụta ya.”
Nowe the childe grewe, and she brought him vnto Pharaohs daughter, and he was as her sonne, and she called his name Moses, because, said she, I drewe him out of the water.
11 Otu ụbọchị, mgbe Mosis toro, ọ pụrụ gaa nʼebe ụmụnna ya nọ, ilele ha mgbe ha nọ na-arụ ọrụ ike ha. Ọ hụrụ otu onye Ijipt ka ọ na-eti onye Hibru ihe, bụ otu nʼime ụmụnna ya.
And in those dayes, when Moses was growen, he went forth vnto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: also he sawe an Egyptian smiting an Ebrewe one of his brethren.
12 Mosis lere anya nʼakụkụ abụọ. Mgbe ọ hụrụ na ọ dịghị onye na-ele ya anya, o gburu onye Ijipt ahụ, lie ya nʼime aja.
And he looked rounde about, and when he sawe no man, hee slewe the Egyptian, and hid him in the sande.
13 Nʼechi ya, Mosis pụrụ hụ ndị Hibru abụọ ka ha na-alụ ọgụ. Mosis jụrụ onye nke ikpe mara ajụjụ sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji si otu a na-eti nwanna gị ihe?”
Againe he came forth the second day, and behold, two Ebrewes stroue: and he said vnto him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellowe?
14 Ma onye ahụ jụrụ Mosis ajụjụ sị, “Onye mere gị onyeisi na onye ikpe nʼetiti anyị? Ị na-achọ igbu m dị ka i si gbuo onye Ijipt ahụ?” Mgbe ahụ Mosis tụrụ ụjọ. O kwuru nʼime onwe ya sị, “Ndị mmadụ amatala banyere ihe ahụ m mere.”
And hee answered, Who made thee a man of authoritie, and a iudge ouer vs? Thinkest thou to kill mee, as thou killedst the Egyptian? Then Moses feared and sayde, Certainly this thing is knowen.
15 Mgbe Fero nụrụ ihe Mosis mere, ọ gbalịrị igbu Mosis. Ma Mosis si nʼihu Fero gbapụ ọsọ gbaga ala Midia. Nʼebe ahụ ọ gara nọdụ ala nʼakụkụ olulu mmiri.
Now Pharaoh heard this matter, and sought to slay Moses: therefore Moses fled from Pharaoh, and dwelt in the lande of Midian, and hee sate downe by a well.
16 Ma o nwere otu onye nchụaja obodo Midia mụtara ụmụ agbọghọ asaa. Nʼoge a, ha bịara iseta mmiri na ịgbanye ya nʼime ihe ịgbanye mmiri anụ ụlọ maka inye igwe anụ ụlọ nna ha mmiri.
And the Priest of Midian had seue daughters, which came and drewe water, and filled the troghes, for to water their fathers sheepe.
17 Ma ụfọdụ ndị na-azụ atụrụ bịara chụpụ ha. Mosis biliri ọtọ, bịa napụta ha, nyere ha aka nye igwe anụ ụlọ ha mmiri.
Then the shepherds came and droue them away: but Moses rose vp and defended them, and watered their sheepe.
18 Ha lọghachikwutere nna ha, Reuel, onye jụrụ ha sị, “Gịnị mere unu ji lọta nʼoge taa?”
And whe they came to Reuel their father, he said, Howe are ye come so soone to day?
19 Ha zara nna ha sị, “Otu onye Ijipt napụtara anyị site nʼaka ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ. O setaara anyị mmiri, nyekwa igwe anụ ụlọ anyị mmiri.”
And they saide, A man of Egypt deliuered vs from the hand of the shepherdes, and also drew vs water ynough, and watered the sheepe.
20 Nna ha jụrụ ha sị, “Olee ebe ọ nọ? Gịnị mere unu ji hapụ ya nʼebe ahụ? Gaanụ kpọọ ya ka o soro anyị rie nri.”
Then he saide vnto his daughters, And where is he? why haue ye so left the man? call him that he may eate bread.
21 Mosis nabatara oku ahụ Reuel kpọrọ ya ka ha na ya biri. O sokwara ha biri. Reuel kpọnyere Mosis Zipọra, otu nwa ya nwanyị, ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya.
And Moses agreed to dwell with the man: who gaue vnto Moses Zipporah his daughter:
22 Zipọra mụtara nwa nwoke, onye Mosis kpọrọ aha ya Geshọm. Nʼihi na Mosis sịrị, “Abụ m onye ọbịa nʼala ndị ọzọ.”
And she bare a sonne, whose name he called Gershom: for he said, I haue bene a stranger in a strange lande.
23 O ruo, mgbe ọtụtụ ụbọchị gara, Fero eze Ijipt nwụrụ. Nʼoge a, ụmụ Izrel nọ na-asụ ude nʼime ọnọdụ ịbụ ohu ha. Ha kwara akwa nke ukwuu. Akwa ha kwara ka e nyere ha aka nʼihi ọnọdụ ịbụ ohu ha ruru Chineke ntị.
Then in processe of time, the King of Egypt dyed, and the children of Israel sighed for the bondage and cryed: and their crie for the bondage came vp vnto God.
24 Chineke nụrụ ịsụ ude ha. O chetara ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ ya na Ebraham, na Aịzik, na Jekọb gbara.
Then God heard their mone, and God remembred his couenant with Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob.
25 Chineke hụrụ ụmụ Izrel, ihe banyere ha metukwara ya nʼobi.
So God looked vpon the children of Israel, and God had respect vnto them.
