Exodo 5
1 Kalpasan a napasamak dagitoy a banbanag, napan da Moisen ken Aaron kenni Faraon ket kinunada, “Daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh, ti Dios iti Israel: 'Palubosam a pumanaw dagiti tattaok, tapno agfiestada para kaniak idiay let-ang.”'
Then Aaron and Moses/I went to the king and [one of them/us] said, “Yahweh God, whom [we] Israeli people [worship], says this [to you]: ‘Let my people go to the desert, in order that they may have a feast to [honor] me!’”
2 Kinuna ni Faraon, “Siasino ni Yahweh? Apay koma a dumngegak iti timekna ken palubosak a pumanaw ti Israel? Saanko nga am-ammo ni Yahweh; maysa pay, saankonto a palubosan a pumanaw ti Israel.”
But the king said, “Who is Yahweh? Why should I pay attention to what he says and let the Israeli [people] [MTY] go? I do not know Yahweh! And furthermore, I will not let the Israeli [people] go!”
3 Kinunada, “Nakisinnarak kadakami ti Dios dagiti Hebreo. Palubosannakami nga agdaliasat iti tallo-nga aldaw a mapan idiay let-ang ken agidaton kenni Yahweh a Diosmi tapno saan isuna a mangipatulod iti didigra wenno kampilan.”
They/we replied, “Yahweh God, the one we Hebrews [worship], has (revealed himself/appeared) to us [and told us what to tell you]. So we ask you to [please] let us go on a three day journey into the desert. We must offer sacrifices to Yahweh God [there]. [If we do] not do that, he will cause us to die [IDM] from diseases or from attacks [by our enemies] [MTY].”
4 Ngem kinuna ti ari iti Egipto kadakuada, “Moises ken Aaron, apay nga al-alaenyo dagiti tattao manipud kadagiti trabahoda? Agsublikayo kadagiti trabahoyo.”
But the king of Egypt said to them/us, “Moses and Aaron, (stop trying to keep the Israeli people from working/why are you preventing the Israeli people from working?) [RHQ] [Tell those slaves] to return to work!”
5 Kinunana pay, “Adu itan dagiti Hebreo iti dagatayo, ket paspasardengenyo ida kadagiti trabahoda.”
The king also said, “Listen [to me! You] people [who now live] in this land are now [more] numerous, and you want them [to stop working and] rest!”
6 Iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw, nangted ni Faraon iti bilin kadagiti kapatas ken mangiturturay kadagiti tattao. Kinunana,
That same day the king commanded the Egyptian slave bosses and the [Israeli] men supervising the slaves,
7 “Saan a kasla idi, masapul a saanyon a pulos nga ikkan dagiti tattao iti garami a pagaramidda kadagiti ladrilio. Bay-anyo ida a mapan ken agurnong iti garami para kadakuada.
“Do not continue to give the [Israeli] people straw for making bricks, as you have done previously. Make them go [into the fields] and gather straw for themselves.
8 Nupay kasta, sapulenyo latta kadakuada iti isu met laeng a bilang dagiti ladrilio kas iti sigud nga inaramidda. Saanyo nga awaten ti basbassit, gapu ta nasadutda. Isu nga umaw-awag ken ibagbagada a, 'Palubosannakami a mapan agidaton iti Diosmi.'
But require them to make the same number of bricks that they did before. Do not decrease the number at all. They (are lazy/do not have enough work to do). That is the reason they are asking me to let them go [into the desert] to offer sacrifices to their god.
9 Nayunanyo pay ti trabaho dagiti lallaki tapno ituloyda daytoy ken saanda a dumngeg kadagiti makaallilaw a sasao.”
Force the men to work harder, so that they will not [have time] to listen to lies [from their leaders]!”
10 Ket rimmuar ngarud dagiti kapatas ken mangiturturay kadagiti tattao ket pinakaamoanda dagiti tattao. Kinunada, “Daytoy ti imbaga ni Faraon: 'Saanakon a pulos a mangted kadakayo iti garami.
So the slave bosses and supervisors of the slaves went to where the [Israeli] people were and said to them, “The king has said that he will no longer give you any straw.
11 Masapul a dakayo ti mapan ken mangala iti garami iti sadinoman a pakabirukanyo iti daytoy, ngem saanto a makissayan ti trabahoyo.'”
[So] you yourselves must go and get straw wherever you can find it. But you must still keep working to make the same number of bricks as before.” [LIT]
12 Isu a nagwaras dagiti tattao iti entero a daga ti Egipto tapno agurnong iti garami.
So the Israeli people went all over Egypt to find straw.
13 Agtultuloy a dagdagdagen dagiti kapatas ida ket kunkunada, “Leppasenyo dagiti trabahoyo, kas idi mait-ited kadakayo ti garami.”
The slave bosses kept telling them insistently, “Finish the work you are required to do each day, [making the same amount of bricks] as you did [before, when we gave you] straw!”
14 Kinabil dagiti kapatas ni Faraon dagiti mangiturturay nga Israelita, dagiti isu met laeng a tattao nga inkabilda a mangimaton kadagiti trabahador. Intultuloy dagiti kapatas a nagsalsaludsod kadakuada, “Apay a saanyo pay a naaramid dagiti amin a ladrilio a naipaaramid kadakayo, uray idi kalman ken ita, kas ti ar-aramidenyo iti napalabas?”
[When they were not able to do that], the slave bosses had the [Israeli supervisors] beaten [with sticks], and they asked them, “Why have [all the men you are supervising] not been able to make [the same number] of bricks today/now as [they did] before [RHQ]?”
15 Isu a napan dagiti kapatas nga Israelita kenni Faraon ket nagpakaasida kenkuana, kinunada, “Apay a tratratoem iti kastoy a wagas dagiti adipenmo?
Then the Israeli supervisors went to the king and complained, saying “[Your Majesty], why are you treating us this way?
16 Awanen a pulos ti garami a mait-ited kadagiti adipenmo, ngem ibagbagada latta kadakami nga, 'Agaramid iti ladrilio!' Dakami, dagiti adipenmo, ket makabkabil payen ita, ngem basol met laeng dagiti tattaom.”
[Now] they are not giving us any straw [for making bricks], but they keep commanding us to make bricks. And now sometimes they beat us. But it is the fault of your own slave bosses [that we cannot make as many bricks as before]!”
17 Ngem kinuna ni Faraon, “Nasadutkayo! Nasadutkayo! Ibagayo, 'Palubosannakami a mapan agidaton kenni Yahweh.'
But the king said, “You are lazy and do not [want to] work! That is why you keep saying, ‘Allow us to go [to the desert] and offer sacrifices to Yahweh.’
18 Isu nga ita agsublikayo kadagiti trabahoyo. Awanen ti maited kadakayo a garami, ngem masapul nga agaramidkayo latta iti isu met laeng a bilang dagiti ladrilio.”
So go and get back to work! [We] are not going to give you any straw, but you must keep making the same number of bricks!”
19 Nakita dagiti kapatas nga Israelita nga adda dakkel a parikutda idi naibaga kadakuada, “Masapul a saanyo a kissayan ti bilang dagiti ladrilio.”
The Israeli supervisors realized that they were in a difficult situation, because they had been told, “We are not going to decrease the number of bricks [you must make] each day.”
20 Nasabatda ni Moises ken Aaron, nga agtaktakder iti ruar ti palasio, bayat ti ipapanawda manipud kenni Faraon.
As they left the king’s [palace], they met Aaron and Moses/me, who were waiting for them [there].
21 Kinunada kenni Moises ken ni Aaron, “Makitanakayo koma ni Yahweh ket dusaennakayo, ta dakayo ti gapuna a kinaguranakami Faraon ken dagiti adipenna. Nangikabilkayo iti kampilan kadagiti imada tapno patayendakami”
They said to Aaron and Moses/me, “Yahweh has seen [what] you two [have done] He will punish you [MTY], because you have caused the king and his officials to despise us! You have given them an excuse [MTY] to kill us!”
22 Nagsubli ni Moises kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Apo, apay a parparigatem dagitoy a tattao? Apay nga imbaonnak?
Moses/I left them and prayed to Yahweh again, saying, “O Yahweh, why have you caused all these evil things to happen to your people [RHQ]? And why did you send me [here] [RHQ]?
23 Nanipud idi napanak nakisao kenni Faraon iti naganmo, pinarigatna dagitoy a tattao, ket saanmo pulos a winaya-wayaan dagiti tattaom.”
Ever since I went to the king and told him what you told me to say [MTY], he has treated your people very cruelly, and you have not done anything to help/rescue them!”
