< Okuva 10 >
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Genda eri Falaawo, kubanga nnyongedde okukakanyaza omutima gwe, n’omutima gw’abaweereza be, ndyoke mbalage ebyamagero byange bino:
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go in unto Pharaoh, for I have declared hard his heart, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these My signs in their midst,
2 era naawe onyumize abaana bo, n’abaana b’abaana bo, ebintu bye nkoledde mu Misiri, n’ebyamagero bye mbalaze; nammwe mulyoke mutegeere nga nze Mukama.”
and so that thou recountest in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.'
3 Awo Musa ne Alooni ne bagenda ewa Falaawo, ne bamugamba nti, “Mukama Katonda wa Abaebbulaniya n’agamba bw’ati nti, ‘Olituusa ddi ng’okyagaanye okwetoowaza mu maaso gange? Leka abantu bange bagende, bansinze.
And Moses cometh in — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and they say unto him, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Until when hast thou refused to be humbled at My presence? send My people away, and they serve Me,
4 Singa ogaana okubakkiriza okugenda, enkya nzija kuleeta enzige mu nsi yo.
for if thou art refusing to send My people away, lo, I am bringing in to-morrow the locust into thy border,
5 Zijja kubikka ensi yonna, wabulewo n’omuntu w’ayisa eriiso okulaba ettaka. Zijja kulya ebyo omuzira bye gwalekawo, zirye ne buli muti ogukula mu nnimiro.
and it hath covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it hath eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it hath eaten every tree which is springing for you out of the field;
6 Zinajjuza amayumba go, n’amayumba g’abakungu bo bonna, n’amayumba g’Abamisiri bonna; ekyo bakadde bo, ne bakadde ba bakadde bo nga tebakirabangako kasookedde babeera mu nsi eno n’okutuusa leero.’” Musa n’akyuka n’aviira Falaawo.
and they have filled thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither thy fathers nor thy father's fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground unto this day,' — and he turneth and goeth out from Pharaoh.
7 Abakungu ba Falaawo ne bamugamba nti, “Omusajja ono alituusa ddi ng’atufuukidde omutego? Leka abantu bagende basinze Mukama Katonda waabwe. Ggwe tolaba Misiri nga bw’eweddewo?”
And the servants of Pharaoh say unto him, 'Until when doth this [one] become a snare to us? send the men away, and they serve Jehovah their God; knowest thou not yet that Egypt hath perished?'
8 Musa ne Alooni ne bazzibwa awali Falaawo. N’abagamba nti, “Kale, mugende musinze Mukama Katonda wammwe. Naye abagenda be baani?”
And Moses is brought back — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and he saith unto them, 'Go, serve Jehovah your God; — who and who [are] those going?'
9 Musa n’addamu nti, “Abakulu n’abato, batabani baffe ne bawala baffe bonna tujja kugenda nabo; era tugenda n’amagana gaffe n’ebisibo byaffe, kubanga waliwo embaga gye tujja okukolera Mukama.”
And Moses saith, 'With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to Jehovah.'
10 Falaawo n’abagamba nti, “Mukama abeere nammwe, obanga mulowooza nga nzija kubaleka mugende, mmwe n’abaana bammwe! Nze ndaba nga mulina olukwe lwe muteekateeka.
And he saith unto them, 'Be it so, Jehovah [be] with you when I send you and your infants away; see — for evil [is] before your faces;
11 Nedda! Abasajja bokka ka bagende basinzeMukama; kubanga ekyo kye mwagala.” Ne bagobebwa awali Falaawo.
not so! go now, ye who [are] men, and serve Jehovah, for that ye are seeking;' and [one] casteth them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
12 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo ku nsi ya Misiri oyite enzige, zijje ku nsi ya Misiri, zirye buli kantu konna akamera mu nnimiro, n’ebyo byonna omuzira bye gwataliza.”
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch out thy hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goeth up against the land of Egypt, and doth eat every herb of the land — all that the hail hath left.'
13 Musa n’agolola omuggo gwe ku nsi ya Misiri; Mukama Katonda n’aleeta embuyaga ezaava ebuvanjuba, ne zikunta olunaku olwo lwonna n’ekiro kyonna. Obudde bwe bwakya embuyaga ne zireeta enzige.
And Moses stretcheth out his rod against the land of Egypt, and Jehovah hath led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning hath been, and the east wind hath lifted up the locust.
14 Enzige nnyingi nnyo ne zigwa ku nsi yonna ey’e Misiri, ne zigisaanikira, okuva ku nsalo yaayo ey’oluuyi olumu okutuuka ku y’oluuyi olulala. Zaali nzige za kabi kanene, nga tewalabikanga ziri ng’ezo, era tezigenda kulabika.
And the locust goeth up against all the land of Egypt, and resteth in all the border of Egypt — very grievous: before it there hath not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none such;
15 Zaabuutikira ensi yonna, ne wabaawo ekizikiza ku nsi; ne zirya buli kimera kyonna mu nsi, n’ebibala byonna eby’emiti omuzira bye gwali gutalizza; era tewaasigalawo kintu kyonna kya kiragala ku miti n’ebimera mu nnimiro, mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri.
and it covereth the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eateth every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail hath left, and there hath not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.'
16 Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni bunnambiro, n’abagamba nti, “Nnyonoonye eri Mukama Katonda wammwe ne gye muli.
And Pharaoh hasteth to call for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, 'I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you,
17 Mbeegayiridde munsonyiwe olw’okwonoona kwange, omulundi guno gwokka; era musabe Mukama Katonda wammwe anziggyeeko olumbe luno lwokka olututta.”
and now, bear with, I pray you, my sin, only this time, and make ye supplication to Jehovah your God, that He turn aside from off me only this death.'
18 Musa n’ava ewa Falaawo ne yeegayirira Mukama.
And he goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
19 Awo Mukama n’aleeta embuyaga ez’amaanyi ennyo nga ziva ebuvanjuba, ne zisitula enzige ne zizisuula mu Nnyanja Emyufu. Tewaasigala nzige n’emu wonna wonna mu nsi y’e Misiri.
and Jehovah turneth a very strong sea wind, and it lifteth up the locust, and bloweth it into the Red Sea — there hath not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
20 Naye Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, abaana ba Isirayiri n’atabakkiriza kugenda.
and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away.
21 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo waggulu eri eggulu, wabeewo ekizikiza ku nsi ey’e Misiri; ekizikiza ekiyinza n’okuwulikika.”
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch out thy hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.'
22 Musa n’agolola omukono gwe eri eggulu; ne wabaawo ekizikiza ekikwafu mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri okumala ennaku ssatu.
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness — thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
23 Abantu bonna nga tewali asobola kulaba munne; era tewaali yaseguka kuva mu kifo kye w’abeera okumala ennaku ssatu. Naye bo abaana ba Isirayiri ewaabwe ng’obudde bulaba.
they have not seen one another, and none hath risen from his place three days; and to all the sons of Israel there hath been light in their dwellings.'
24 Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa, n’amugamba nti, “Mugende musinze Mukama. Abaana bammwe nabo mugende nabo, wabula ente zammwe, n’embuzi n’endiga ze ziba zisigala.”
And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and saith, 'Go ye, serve Jehovah, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants also go with you;'
25 Naye Musa n’addamu nti, “Osaana otuleke tutwale ebisolo eby’okuwaayo ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama Katonda waffe.
and Moses saith, 'Thou also dost give in our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and we have prepared for Jehovah our God;
26 Ente zaffe tusaana okugenda nazo; tewali nsolo n’emu eneesigala. Kubanga kitusaanira okuzitwala nga tugenda okusinza Mukama Katonda waffe; kubanga tujja kumala kutuuka eri, ne tulyoka tumanya kye tunaakozesa mu kusinza Mukama.”
and also our cattle doth go with us, there is not left a hoof, for from it we do take to serve Jehovah our God; and we — we know not how we do serve Jehovah till our going thither.'
27 Naye Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, n’atabaleka kugenda.
And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not been willing to send them away;
28 Falaawo n’agamba Musa nti, “Nva mu maaso! Era weekuume, sikulabanga ng’okomyewo w’endi; bwe ndiddayo okukulaba tolirema kufa.”
and Pharaoh saith to him, 'Go from me, take heed to thyself, add not to see my face, for in the day thou seest my face thou diest;'
29 Musa n’addamu nti, “Nga bw’ogambye, nange siriddayo kukulaba.”
and Moses saith, 'Rightly hast thou spoken, I add not any more to see thy face.'
