1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Ekyaliyo ekibonoobono kimu kye nzija okuleetera Falaawo n’ensi y’e Misiri. Oluvannyuma lwakyo ajja kubaleka mugende; ate bw’anaabakkiriza okugenda, ajja kubeegoberako ddala bwegobi abasindiikirize.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Yet one plague, will I bring in upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, after that, he will let you go from hence, —when he doth let you go, he will, altogether drive, you out from hence.
2 Kale, tegeeza abantu, buli musajja asabanga muliraanwa we, ne buli mukazi asabanga muliraanwa we, ebintu eby’omuwendo ebya ffeeza n’ebya zaabu.”
Speak, I pray you, in the ears of the people, —and let them ask—every man of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, articles of silver and articles of gold.
3 Mukama n’aleetera Abamisiri okukwanagana n’abaana ba Isirayiri; ne Musa n’aweebwa nnyo ekitiibwa mu nsi y’e Misiri. Abakungu ba Falaawo n’abantu bonna ne bamugulumiza nnyo.
And Yahweh gave the people favour, in the eyes of the Egyptians, —even the man Moses himself, was exceeding great in the land of Egypt, —in the eyes of Pharaoh’s servants and in the eyes of the people.
4 Awo Musa n’agamba Falaawo nti, “Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, ‘Nga wakati mu ttumbi, nzija kuyita mu Misiri yonna.
And Moses said, Thus saith Yahweh, —About midnight, am, I, going forth in the midst of Egypt;
5 Ebibereberye mu nsi y’e Misiri bijja kufa, okutandikira ku mubereberye wa Falaawo agenda okumusikira, okutuukira ddala ku mubereberye w’omuwala omuzaana asa ku lubengo; era n’ebibereberye byonna eby’ebisolo.
then shall every firstborn in the land of Egypt die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, unto the firstborn of the handmaid who is behind the two millstones, —and every firstborn of beasts;
6 Wajja kubaawo okukungubaga okunene mu nsi yonna eya Misiri, okutabangawo era nga tewagenda kubaawo kukwenkana.
then shall there be a great outcry, in all the land of Egypt, —such, as never was and, such, as shall not be again.
7 Naye mu baana ba Isirayiri n’embwa teribaayo gw’eboggolera wadde ebisolo byabwe; mulyoke mutegeere nga Mukama Abamisiri n’Abayisirayiri tabayisa bumu.’
But against none of the sons of Israel, shall a dog sharpen his tongue, neither against man nor beast, —that ye may know that Yahweh maketh a difference between Egypt and Israel.
8 Era bano abakungu bo bonna balijja gye ndi nga babundabunda, ne banvuunamira nga banneegayirira nti, ‘Genda, ggwe n’abantu bo bonna abakugoberera.’ Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo nange ndigenda.” N’ava awali Falaawo n’obusungu bungi nnyo.
So shall all these thy servants come down unto me and bow themselves down to me saying—Go forth, thou and all the people who are in thy footsteps, and after that, will I go forth. And he went forth from Pharaoh, in a heat of anger.
9 Mukama yali agambye Musa nti, “Falaawo tagenda kuwuliriza by’omugamba, bwe ntyo ndyoke nkolere ebyamagero byange bingi mu Misiri.”
And Yahweh had said unto Moses, Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, —that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.
10 Musa ne Alooni baakolera ebyamagero ebyo byonna awali Falaawo; naye Mukama yakakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, n’atakkiriza baana ba Isirayiri kuva mu nsi ye.
So then, Moses and Aaron, did all these wonders before Pharaoh, —but Yahweh let Pharaoh’s heart wax bold, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
