< Kobima 6 >

1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Sik’oyo, okomona makambo oyo nakosala Faraon: na loboko na Ngai ya nguya, Faraon akotika bato na Ngai kokende mpe akobimisa bango na mokili na ye.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Now, shalt thou see, what I will do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand, shall he let them go, and with a strong hand, shall he drive them out from his land.
2 Nzambe alobaki lisusu na Moyize: — Nazali Yawe.
And God spake unto Moses, —and said unto him, I, am Yahweh:
3 Namimonisaki epai ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Jakobi lokola Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, kasi namimonisaki te epai na bango na Kombo na Ngai: Yawe.
I appeared, therefore, unto Abraham unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as GOD Almighty, —although, by my name Yahweh was I not made known to them;
4 Nasalaki boyokani na Ngai elongo na bango mpo na kopesa bango mokili ya Kanana epai wapi bazalaki kowumela lokola bapaya.
Moreover also I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, —even the land of their sojournings wherein they sojourned.
5 Mpe lisusu nayoki kolela ya bana ya Isalaele oyo bato ya Ejipito bakomisi bawumbu, bongo nakanisi lisusu boyokani na Ngai.
Moreover also, I heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians, were holding in servitude, So then I remembered my covenant.
6 Yango wana, loba na bana ya Isalaele: « Nazali Yawe! Nakokangola bino na misala makasi oyo bato ya Ejipito bapesi bino. Nakokangola bino na se ya bowumbu na bango na loboko na nguya mpe na bitumbu ya makasi.
Therefore say thou to the sons of Israel-I, am Yahweh, Therefore will I bring you forth from under the burdens of Egypt, And will deliver you out of their service, And will redeem you with a stretched-out arm, and with great judgments;
7 Nakozwa bino lokola bato na Ngai moko, bongo nakozala Nzambe na bino. Boye bokoyeba ete Ngai Yawe, nazali Nzambe na bino, oyo akangolaki bino na se ya misala makasi ya bato ya Ejipito.
And will take you to myself for a people, And will become your God, —And ye shall know that, I Yahweh, am your God, who brought you forth from under the burdens of Egypt:
8 Mpe nakokotisa bino na mokili oyo nalapaki ndayi, na kotombola loboko, ete nakopesa yango epai ya Abrayami, epai ya Izaki mpe epai ya Jakobi; nakopesa bino yango mpo ete ekoma ya bino. Nazali Yawe. »
And I will bring you into the land as to which I uplifted my hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, —and will give it to you as an inheritance: I, am Yahweh.
9 Moyize alobaki makambo oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele, kasi bayokaki ye te, pamba te misala makasi oyo bazalaki kopesa bango elembisaki mitema na bango.
And Moses spake thus unto the sons of Israel, but they hearkened not unto Moses, through shortness of spirit, and through hard service.
10 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
11 — Kende koyebisa Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, ete abimisa bana ya Isalaele na mokili na ye.
Go in speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
12 Kasi Moyize azongiselaki Yawe: — Soki kutu bana ya Isalaele bayoki ngai te, ndenge nini Faraon ayoka ngai moto ya likukuma?
And Moses spake before Yahweh, saying, —Lo! the sons of Israel have not hearkened unto me, how then shall Pharaoh, hear, I, also being of uncircumcised lips.
13 Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron na tina na bana ya Isalaele mpe ya Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, oyo epai ya nani apesaki mitindo ete abimisa bana ya Isalaele na Ejipito.
Thus then did Yahweh speak unto Moses and unto Aaron, yea he gave them a charge unto the sons of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, for the bringing forth of the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
