Exodus 3

1 Sie len ke Moses el karingin sheep ac nani natul Jethro, su papa tumun mutan kial ac el mwet tol lun Midian, el pwanla kosro inge alukela yen mwesis ac sun eol mutal Sinai.

Now Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to God's mountain, to Horeb.

2 Lipufan se lun LEUM GOD sikyang nu sel we in luman sie e ma tuku liki infulwen sak srisrik soko. Moses el lut ke el liye lah sak soko ah firir a tiana firirla.

The angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and look, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

3 El nunku sel, “Mea na usrnguk se inge? Efu sak soko inge ku tia firirla? Nga ac kuhfla nu kac ngan liye.”

Moses said, "I will turn aside now, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt."

4 Ke LEUM GOD El liye lah Moses el kalukyang, El pang nu sel liki infulwen sak soko ah, “Moses! Moses!” El topuk, “Nga pa inge.”

When the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, "Moses. Moses." He said, "Here I am."

5 Na God El fahk, “Tu na insacn. Sarukla fahluk lom an, mweyen kom tu fin fohk mutal.

He said, "Do not come close. Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place you are standing on is holy ground."

6 Nga pa God lun papa matu tomom — God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob.” Ouinge Moses el afinya mutal, mweyen el arulana sangeng in ngetang nu sin God.

Moreover he said, "I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look at God.

7 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga liye lupan keok lun mwet luk fin acn Egypt. Nga lohng pusren tung lalos ke elos wowoyak tuh in moliyukla elos liki inpoun mwet su akkohsyelos. Nga kalem ke lupan keok lalos.

The LORD said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

8 Na pa nga oatume in molelosla liki mwet Egypt ac usalosme liki acn we nu ke sie facl lulap, sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, su mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Amor, mwet Periz, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus muta we inge.

I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Canaanites, and the Hethites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

9 Pwayena nga lohng pusren tung lun mwet luk, ac nga liye lupan sulallal lun mwet Egypt nu selos.

Now, look, the cry of the children of Israel has come to me. Moreover I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.

10 Inge nga ac supwekomla nu yurin tokosra lun Egypt tuh kom in ku in kolla mwet luk liki facl sel.”

Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring forth my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt."

11 Tuh Moses el fahk nu sin God, “Ku su nga uh, tuh nga in som nu yorol tokosra ac usla mwet Israel liki acn Egypt?”

And Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

12 God El topuk, “Nga ac fah wi kom, ac pacl se kom use mwet uh liki acn Egypt kowos ac fah alu nu sik fin eol soko inge. Pa inge mwe akpwayei lah nga pa supwekomla.”

And God spoke to Moses, saying, "Certainly I will be with you. This will be the token to you, that I have sent you: when you have brought forth the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain."

13 Na Moses el fahk nu sin God, “Ke nga ac som nu yurin mwet Israel ac fahk nu selos, ‘God lun papa tomowos uh pa supweyume nu yuruwos,’ elos ac fah siyuk sik, ‘Su inel an?’ Na mea nga ac fahk nu selos?”

And Moses said to God, "Look, when I come to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you;' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' What should I tell them?"

14 God El fahk, “Nga Nuna Nga Ah Na. Kom fah fahk nu selos, ‘El su pangpang NGA, pa supweyume nu yuruwos.’

And God said to Moses, "I AM THAT I AM," and he said, "You shall tell the children of Israel this: 'I AM has sent me to you.'"

15 Fahk nu sin mwet Israel lah nga, LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos somla — God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob — pa supwekom nu yorolos. Pa inge Inek nwe tok, ac fwil nukewa fahsru uh ac fah pangonyu ouinge.

And God said moreover to Moses, "You shall tell the children of Israel this, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

16 Som ac orani mwet kol lun Israel nu sie, ac fahk nu selos lah nga, LEUM GOD lun papa matu tumalos — God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob — pa sikwot nu sum. Fahk nu selos lah nga tuku nu yorolos tari ac nga liye ma mwet Egypt oru nu selos.

Go, and gather the elders of the children of Israel together, and tell them, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, "I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt;

17 Nga sulela tari lah nga ac usalosla liki facl Egypt, yen akkeokyeyuk elos we, ac nga fah usalos nu in sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we — facl sin mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Amor, mwet Periz, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus.

and I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, and the Hethites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey."'

18 “Mwet luk elos ac fah porongo ma kom fahk nu selos. Na kom, ac mwet kol lun mwet Israel, fah som nu yurin tokosra lun Egypt ac fahk nu sel, ‘LEUM GOD lun mwet Hebrew El sikme nu sesr. Inge lela nu sesr kut in fahsr ke len tolu nu yen mwesis in oru mwe kisa lasr nu sin LEUM GOD lasr.’

They will listen to your voice, and you shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and you shall tell him, 'The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Now please let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to our God.'

19 Nga arulana etu lah tokosra lun Egypt fah tia lela kowos in som nwe ke na po ku lun God akkeokyal.

I know that the king of Egypt won't give you permission to go, except by a mighty hand.

20 Tusruktu nga ac orekmakin ku luk in kai Egypt ke mwe aksangeng lulap. Tukun ma inge el ac fah filikowosla.

I will put forth my hand and strike Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in its midst, and after that he will let you go.

21 “Nga fah oru mwet Egypt in akfulatye kowos, tuh pacl mwet luk uh ac som elos fah tia pisinpo.

I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and it will happen that when you go, you shall not go empty-handed.

22 Mutan Israel nukewa fah som nu yurin mwet tulan Egypt lalos, oayapa yurin mutan Egypt su muta in lohm selos, ac siyuk nuknuk ac mwe yun gold ac silver selos. Na mwet Israel fah filiya ma inge fin wen ac acn natulos. Ouinge elos ac fah usla mwe kasrup lun mwet Egypt.”

But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, and of her who visits her house, articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons, and on your daughters. So you shall plunder the Egyptians.
