Zmavarene 1

1 Israeli ne' mofavre naga'mo'za a'mofavre zamine Isipima nezmafa Jekopu'enema vu'naza naga'mokizmi zamagi'a ama'ne,

Now these are the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt (every man and his household came with Jacob):

2 Rubeni'ma, Simioni'ma, Levi'ma Juda'ma,

Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

3 Isaka'ma, Zebuluni'ma, Benzamini'ma,

Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

4 Dani'ma Naftali'ma, Gati ene Asa'e.

Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

5 Hagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'nege'za, Jekopumpinti fore'ma hu'naza nagara maka 70'a naga'mo'za vu'naze. Hianagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'ne.

All the souls who came out of Jacob’s body were seventy souls, and Joseph was in Egypt already.

6 Hagi Josefe'ene ana maka afu'aganahe'zane ana knafima magokama vu'naza naga'a fri vagare'naze.

Joseph died, as did all his brothers, and all that generation.

7 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za mofavrea kase'za eri hakare hazageno, tusi hankvenentake vahe fore hu'za Isipi mopa mani avite'naze.

The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

8 Hagi henka Josefe'ma hu'nea zantmima keno antahino osu'nea ne'mo, Isipia kasefa kini efore huno kegava hu'ne.

Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.

9 Ana kini ne'mo'a vahe'agura amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Keho, Israeli vahe'mo'za tagrira tagatere'za, rama'a vahe fore nehazageno, hankave zamimo'a tagatenere.

He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.

10 E'ina hu'negu enketa mago'a kanku haketa zamazeri haviza hanunke'za vahera fore huhakarea osnaze. Ha'ma fore hanige'za, ha' vahetirega ante'za ha' hunerante'za kumatia atre'za vugahaze.

Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”

11 Anage hige'za, kazokzo eri'za kva vahe zamazeri otizageno, Isipi kini ne' Fero'ma fenoma antesnia rankumatre, Pitomu kuma'ene, Rameses kuma'enena Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza nehazage'za ki'naze.

Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.

12 Tusiza hu'za Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza hazanagi, mago'ane rupazi hu'za rama'a nehazageno, Isipi vahe'mo'za Israeli vahekura koro huzmante'naze.

But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel.

13 Israeli vahera zamasunkura huozmantage'za eri'zana hanaveti'za eri'naze.

The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,

14 Tusi'a eri'za fukinteti briki trohu eri'zane, hozafi eri'zane mago'a eri'za zami'za, nomani'zazmia tusiza hu'za zamazeri amuho hazage'za zamarimpa akahezampi mani'naze.

and they made their lives bitter with hard service in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve.

15 Anante Isipi kini ne'mo'a, Hibru a'ne'mo'zama mofavre'ma kasenteku'ma nehzageno zamazama hukema kse nezmia Hibru a'trena, Sifrane Puagiznia amanage huno znasmi'ne,

The king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah,

16 Hibru ane'mozama mofavrema kasentenaku'ma nehanageta zamaza hutama kasezmantesuta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma, zmatrenke'za maniho, hagi ne'mofavrema kasezmantesageta zamahe friho.

and he said, “When you perform the duty of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the birth stool, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.”

17 Hianagi ana a'tre'mokea Anumzamofonku koro nehuke, Isipi kini ne'mo'ma hanave kema huno'ma ne' mofavre'ramima zamahe frihoma hu'neana, zamahe ofri zmatrege'za mani'naze.

But the midwives feared God, and did not do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive.

18 Ana higeno Izipi kini ne'mo'a ana a'trena ke higeke akeno anage huno znantahige'ne, Na'a higetna ne' mofavre'rmina zamahe ofrita zmatrake'za mani'naze?

The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and saved the boys alive?”

19 Mofavrema zamaza huke kasezmi a'tre'mokea amanage huke Ferona kenona'a hunte'na'e, Hibru a'ne'mo'za zamagra Isipi a'negnara osu'za hanavenentake hu'nazanki'za, uohanati'nonke'za hanatinonke'za ame'ama hu'za mofavrea kasenentaze.

The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife comes to them.”

20 Ana higeno Anumzamo'a mofavrema zamazama huke kasezami a'tre'na knare huznantegeno, Israeli vahera kase hakare hazage'za hanavenentake vahetami rama'a fore hu'za vu'naze.

God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.

21 Ana a'tremokea Anumzamofonku koro nehaku huno Anumzamo'a asomu huznantegeke znagranena agafa huke mofavre kasente'na'e.

Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.

22 Anante Fero'a ana maka Isipi vahe'a amanage huno hanavenentake ke huzmante'ne, Hibru a'nemo'zama ne' mofavrema kasezmantesazana, zmavaretma Naeli timpi matevu nezmatreta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma ozmahe zmatrenke'za maniho.

Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.”
