Zmavarene 18

1 Jetro'a Mitieni vahe'mokizmi pristi nekino, Mosesena nenemo'e. Maka'zama Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesene Agri'a vahe Israeli vahe'ma huzmante'neazana Jetro'a antahi'ne. Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vea'ene Mosesenema huzmanteno Isipiti'ma zamavreno atirami'nea zamofo nanekea antahi'ne.

When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, [and] that the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt;

2 Mosese'a nenaro Ziporama huntegeno agranema umani'nenereti Jetro'a nevreno,

Then Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,

3 tare ne' mofavre'ararena znavreno e'ne. Mosese'a huno, Ru vahe'mofo mopafi emani'noe nehuno, agonesa mofavre'amofo agi'a Gesomu'e huno ante'ne.

And her two sons; of which the name of the one [was] Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land:

4 Hagi Mosese'a anante mofavre'amofo agi'a Eliesa'e hu'ne. Na'ankure nafa'nimofo Anumzamo naza higeno, Isipi kini ne'mofo bainati kazimo'a onahe'negure hu'ne.

And the name of the other [was] Eliezer; for the God of my father, [said he, was] mine help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh:

5 Hagi anantera Mosese nenemo Jetro'a, Mosese nenarone mofavre'ararene nezamavreno, ka'ma mopafi Mosese'ma Anumzamofo agona me'nerega seli noma kino mani'nere vu'ne.

And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God:

6 Jetro'a amanage huno Mosesentega kea atrente'ne, Nagra neganemo'na aka'ane tare mofavreka'ane zamavare'na kagenaku neone.

And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.

7 Hagi Mosese'a ana nanekema nentahino vuno nenemo ome negeno, rena omenereno, otino antako hunenteno, hu frufra huntetege'ne, Mosese seli nompinka ufre'na'e.

And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other of [their] welfare; and they came into the tent.

8 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a zamaza huno Isipi kini ne' Fero azampinti'ene Isipi vahe zamazampinti'ma zamahokeno zmavre fegi atre'nea nanekene, karanka zamavreno ne-ege'za maka knazama eri'za neageno, Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamazama huno e'nea naneke'a Mosese'a nenemo nera Jetrona asmi'ne.

And Moses told his father in law all that the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, [and] all the travail that had come upon them by the way, and [how] the LORD delivered them.

9 Anumzamo'ma knare'zantfa huno Isipi vahe'mokizmi zamazampinti zamahokeno zamavreno atirami'nea nanekea Jetro'a nentahino, tusi'a muse hu'ne.

And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the LORD had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.

10 Anante Jetro'a amanage hu'ne, Isipi vahe'mofo azampinti'ene Fero azampinti'ene Isipi vahe'mofo kvafinti'ma tamahokeno'ma tamavreno atirami'nea Ra Anumzamofona ra agi'a hentesga hue.

And Jethro said, Blessed [be] the LORD, who hath delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.

11 Hagi menina nagra antahi'noe, mika havi anumzantamina agtereno, hihamu'ane Ra Anumzana tamage huno Agrake mani'ne. Na'ankure Isipi kva vahe'mo'zama zmavufga ra nehu'za, Agri vahe'ma Israeli vahe zamazeri haviza huzmante'naza vahera, zamazeri haviza hu'ne.

Now I know that the LORD [is] greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they dealt proudly [he was] above them.

12 Hagi Mosese nenemo Jetro'a tevefima kre fananema hu ofa erino, Anumzamofo Kresramana vunentegeno, anante Aroni zane, Israeli kva vahe'mo'za Jetro'ene emetru hu'za Anumzamofo avurera ne'zana ne'naze.

And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father in law before God.

13 Hagi maseno nanterana Mosese'a keagama refkohu trate mani'nege'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za emetru hu'za regagi'za oti'nazageno, mago'magomofo nanekea refko huno nentahigeno, vuno kinaga ome ase'ne.

And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening.

14 E'inahu'zama Mosese'ma vahe'mokizmima hunezmantegeno, nenemo Jetro'a negeno amanage hu'ne, nankna'za ama vahe'mofona hunezmantane? Na'a agafare kagrakera mani'nenka nanekea refko nehankeno, ama vahe'mo'za oti'za mani'nazageno vuno kinaga omenese?

And when Moses’ father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What [is] this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even?

15 Mosese'a ana kemofo nona'a amanage huno nenemo Jetrona asami'ne, Na'ankure zamagra Anumzamofo avesi'za antahinaku nagritera emetru hu'za mani'naze.

And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God:

16 Hagi tava'ozmire'ma mani'naza vahe'enema zmagrama ha'frama nehu'za, nagrite azage'na zamaza hu'na naneke'zimia antahi'na refko nehu'na, Anumzamofo tra kene, kasegenena eri ama hu'na nezmasamue.

When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make [them] know the statutes of God, and his laws.

17 Higeno Jetro'a anage huno nenemo nera Mosesena asami'ne. E'inahu zama nehanana knare zana nosane.

And Moses’ father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest [is] not good.

18 Ama eri'zana kna'a me'neankinka, kagrakera e'origahane. Kagrane vahe'ka'anena tamage huno tamavesra hugahie.

Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that [is] with thee: for this thing [is] too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.

19 Hagi menina ke'ni'a antahio, nagra antahintahia kamisugeno Anumzamo'a kagrane manigahie. Kagra vahe'mokizmi zmagi erinka Anumzamofo avure mani'nenka, vahe'mo'zama ha'frama hanaza zana erinka Anumzamofo ome asamigahane.

Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:

20 Ana nehunka kagra Anumzamofo tra kene kasegenena vahera rempi hunezminka, mani'zazimi eri fatgo hu'za kama nevu'za, eri'zama erisaza zamofona zmaveri hughane.

And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.

21 Hagi mago'ane Jetro'a huno, Vahepintira tamagema huno eri'zama eriga'ma nehuno, Anumzamofonku'ma kore'ma hunenteno, krunage'ma huno fenoma eri'zanku avesra nehia vahe'ene, huhampri zamantege'za 1 tauseni'a vahete kva manina, 1 hantreti'a vahete kva manina, 50'a vahete kva manina 10ni'a vahete kva manitere hiho.

Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place [such] over them, [to be] rulers of thousands, [and] rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:

22 E'i ana kva vahe'mokizmi zamatrege'za maka knafina, vahe'mokizmi knazana refko huzmanteho. Hianagi ra hazenke'zana kagrite eri'za esagenka refko huzmanto. Hianagi ne'one knazazamia ana kva vahe'mo'za eri fatgo nehanageno, knama e'nerina zamo'a osi'a o'za hugantegahie.

And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, [that] every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear [the burden] with thee.

23 Amama negasmua kema amage nentesankeno, Anumzamo kama kaverima hanigenka kazikazi hunka mika eri'zana knare hunka e'nerisankeno, vahe'mo'za muse nehu'za zamarimpa fru'ne nozimirega vu'za e'za hugahaze.

If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee [so], then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

24 Mosese'a, Jetro'ma asmi'nea kea antahino, ana maka kea amage ante'ne.

So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.

25 Hagi Israeli vahepinti knare'nare vahe'a Mosese'a huhampri zmantege'za, kva vahera mani'za 1 tauseni'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 100'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 50'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 10ni'a vahe'mokizmi kva manitere hu'za kegava hu'naze.

And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

26 Ana kva vahe'mo'za maka knafina, refko'ma huga knazana zamagra'a refko hu'naze. Hianagi amuhoma hianknazamofo keaga eri'za Mosesente vu'naze.

And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.

27 Anante Mosese'a nenemo nera Jetrona hu frufra huntegeno mopa'arega ete vu'ne.

And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.
