Exodus 2
1 Ke pacl se inge sie mukul ke sruf lal Levi el payukyak sin sie mutan in sruf sacna,
A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
2 ac mutan sac el oswela tulik mukul se. Ke el liye lah tulik na wowo se, el okanulla malem tolu.
The woman conceived and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
3 Na ke el tia ku in sifil okanulla, el orala fotoh se ke ah, na el itangla ke mwe fulful in tia wohn. El filiya tulik sac loac ac usla filiya inmasrlon ah sisken infacl uh.
When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.
4 Tulik mutan se wien tulik sac el tu loes kutu lukel in liye lah mea ac sikyak nu sel.
His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
5 Na acn se natul tokosra tufoki in yihyih ke infacl soko ah, ac mutan kulansap lal tuelik sisken infacl ah. Na el liyauk fotoh sac inmasrlon ac ah, ac el sap sie mutan kulansap lal in som use.
Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket amongst the reeds, and sent her servant to get it.
6 Fisrak sac ikasla ac liyauk tulik mukul srisrik se. Tulik sac tung, na el pakomutal ac fahk, “Tulik srisrik Hebrew se pa nge.”
She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
7 Na tulik mutan se wien tulik sac siyuk, “Mea, nga ac tia som konauk sie mutan Hebrew ah in katiti tulik se inge?”
Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?”
8 El topuk, “Wona.” Ouinge tulik mutan sac som solama nina na kien tulik sac.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” The young woman went and called the child’s mother.
9 Fisrak sac fahk nu sin nina sac, “Eis tulik se inge ac liyalang, ac nga fah moli nu sum.” Ouinge el us tulik sac ac liyalang.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” The woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 Tok, ke tulik sac matula, nina sac el usalla nu yurin acn natul tokosra, su nutella oana ma na natul. El fahk mu, “Nga fah sang inel ‘Moses’ mweyen nga ololak liki inkof uh.”
The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
11 Ke Moses el matula, el som mutwata yurin mwet lal mwet Hebrew, ac el liye lupan orekma upa ma itukyang elos in oru. El liye pac ke sie mwet Egypt el uni sie mwet Hebrew wial ah.
In those days, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his brothers and saw their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
12 Moses el ngetot ngetma in suk lah oasr mwet liyal, na ke wangin, el uniya mwet Egypt sac ac pikinya manol in puk uh.
He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 Len tok ah, el folokla ac liye ke sie mwet Hebrew uni sie pac. Na Moses el fahk nu sel, “Efu kom ku uni mwet Hebrew wiom?”
He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?”
14 Mwet sac topuk ac fahk, “Su oru tuh kom in mwet leum ac mwet nununku facsr? Mea, kom ac uniyuwi oana ke kom uniya mwet Egypt sac?” Ke Moses el akilen lah mwet uh etu tari ma se el orala, na el sangeng.
He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” Moses was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.”
15 Ke pacl se tokosra el lohngak, el suk in unilya Moses. Tusruktu Moses el kaingla ac som muta in acn Midian. Sie len ah, ke Moses el muta pe lufin kof se,
Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
16 na acn itkosr natul Jethro, mwet tol lun Midian, tuku in ut kof ac oayapa nwek mwe nim kof nimen sheep ac nani nutin papa tumaltal ah.
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 Na oasr kutu mwet liyaung sheep ac nani tuku lusak acn natul Jethro ah. Moses el tuyak ac kasru acn ekasr ah, ac el sang kof nimen kosro nutin papa tumaltal ah.
The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 Ke elos folokla nu yurin papa sac, el siyuk selos, “Komtak ku sa folok misenge?”
When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?”
19 Elos topuk, “Mwet Egypt se kasrekut ke kutu pac mwet liyaung sheep aklokoalokye kut, ac el oayapa ut kof lasr ac kiteya pac kosro natusr ah.”
They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.”
20 El siyuk seltal, “El aya? Komtal ku tia usalu? Fahla solalma elan wi kut mongo.”
He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.”
21 Ouinge Moses el sulela elan mutana we. Na Jethro el esalang Zipporah, acn natul, in mutan kial.
Moses was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses Zipporah, his daughter.
22 Zipporah el oswela wen se, ac Moses el fahk, “Nga mwetsac se nu fin facl se inge, ouinge nga fah sang inel Gershom.”
She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.”
23 Tukun yac pus, tokosra lun acn Egypt el misa, tusruktu mwet Israel srakna yohk akkohs nu selos, ac elos sasaolana ke orekma upa lalos. Elos wowoyak ac suk kasru sin God.
In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
24 Ac God El lohng pusren sasao lalos ac El esam wuleang lal yorol Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob.
God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 El liye ac etu ouiyen keok lun mwet Israel, ac El kena kasrelos.
God saw the children of Israel, and God understood.
