1 Awo Musa n’abaana ba Isirayiri ne bayimbira Mukama oluyimba luno nga bagamba nti, “Nnaayimbiranga Mukama, kubanga awangudde n’ekitiibwa kingi. Asudde mu nnyanja embalaasi n’omwebagazi waayo.
Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord, and thus did they say, I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
2 Mukama ge maanyi gange era lwe luyimba lwange, era afuuse obulokozi bwange. Ye Katonda wange, nange nnaamutenderezanga, ye Katonda wa kitange, nange nnaamugulumizanga.
My strength and song is the Lord, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will declare his praise, the God of my father, and I will exalt him.
3 Mukama mulwanyi; Mukama, ly’erinnya lye.
The Eternal is the Lord of war; the Eternal is his name.
4 Amagaali ga Falaawo n’eggye lye abisudde mu nnyanja; n’abaduumizi b’amaggye ge abalondemu basaanyeewo mu Nnyanja Emyufu.
The chariots of Pharaoh and his host hath he hurled into the sea; and the chosen of his captains are sunk in the Red Sea.
5 Obuziba bubasaanikidde; basse okutuuka ku ntobo ng’ejjinja.
The depths have covered them; they went down to the bottom as a stone.
6 “Omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, Ayi Mukama, gwalina amaanyi n’ekitiibwa; omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, Ayi Mukama, gwasesebbula omulabe.
Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power; thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
7 Mu bukulu obw’ekitiibwa kyo, wamegga abalabe bo, wabalaga obusungu bwo, ne bubasiriiza ng’ebisasiro.
And in the greatness of thy excellency hast thou overthrown those that rose up against thee; thou didst send forth thy wrath, it consumed them as stubble.
8 Omukka bwe gwava mu nnyindo zo, amazzi ne geetuuma; amazzi g’ebuziba ne geekwata ng’ekisenge wakati mu nnyanja.
And with the breath of thy nostrils the waters were heaped up together, the floods stood upright as a wall; congealed were the depths in the heart of the sea.
9 “Omulabe n’ayogera nti, ‘Ka mbagobe, mbakwate. Nnaagabana omunyago; mbeemalireko eggoga. Nnaasowolayo ekitala kyange, ndyoke mbazikirize.’
The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my desire shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Naye wakunsa embuyaga zo, ennyanja n’ebasaanikira. Bakka ng’ekyuma, ne basaanawo mu mazzi amangi ag’amaanyi.
Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sunk as lead in mighty waters.
11 Ani akufaanana, Ayi Mukama, mu bakatonda bonna? Ani akufaanana, ggwe, Omutukuvu Oweekitiibwa, atiibwa era atenderezebwa, akola ebyamagero?
Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the mighty? who is like unto thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 “Wagolola omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, ensi n’ebamira.
Thou didst stretch out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 Mu kwagala kwo okutaggwaawo, abantu be wanunula olibakulembera. Mu maanyi go, olibatuusa mu kifo kyo ekitukuvu.
Thou leadest forth in thy kindness the people thou hast redeemed; thou guidest it in thy strength unto the habitation of thy holiness.
14 Amawanga galikiwulira ne gakankana, ababeera mu Bufirisuuti balijjula ennaku.
Nations hear it and tremble: sorrow seizeth the inhabitants of Palestine.
15 Abakungu b’omu Edomu balitangaalirira nga batidde; abakulembeze ab’amaanyi aba Mowaabu balikankana; abatuuze b’omu Kanani baliggwaamu endasi.
Then were troubled the dukes of Edom; the mighty men of Moab, trembling seizeth them; faint-hearted become all the inhabitants of Canaan. l
16 Okwesisiwala n’entiisa biribajjira. Olw’omukono gwo ogw’amaanyi tebalinyega, balisirika ng’ejjinja okutuusa abantu bo lwe baliyitawo, Ayi Mukama, okutuusa abantu bo, be wanunula, lwe baliyitawo.
Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thy arm they shall be still as a stone: till thy people pass over, O Lord, till this people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
17 Olibayingiza n’obassa ku lusozi lwo lwe weerondera, kye kifo, Ayi Mukama kye weekolera mw’onoobeeranga, ekifo kyo Ekitukuvu, kye weekolera, Ayi Mukama, n’emikono gyo.
Thou wilt bring them, and plant them on the mountain of thy inheritance, the place, O Lord, which thou hast wrought for thy residence, the sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 Mukama anaafuganga emirembe n’emirembe.”
The Lord will reign for ever and ever.
19 Embalaasi za Falaawo, n’amagaali ge, ne basajja be abeebagadde embalaasi bwe baayingira mu nnyanja, Mukama n’akomyawo amazzi ag’ennyanja ne gabasaanikira; naye nga bo abaana ba Isirayiri batambulira ku ttaka kkalu wakati mu nnyanja.
For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again upon them the waters of the sea; but the children of Israel went on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
20 Awo Miryamu, nnabbi omukazi era mwannyina wa Alooni, n’akwata ekitaasa; n’abakazi abalala ne bamugoberera nga balina ebitaasa era nga bwe bazina.
Then took Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21 Miryamu n’abayimbira bw’ati nti, “Muyimbire Mukama, kubanga awangudde n’ekitiibwa kingi. Asudde mu nnyanja embalaasi n’agyebagadde.”
And Miriam began her song to them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
22 Awo Musa n’akulembera Isirayiri, n’abaggya ku Nnyanja Emyufu, ne bayingirira eddungu ly’e Ssuuli. Ne batambulira ennaku ssatu mu ddungu nga tebalabye ku mazzi.
And Moses caused Israel to depart from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Bwe baatuuka e Mala, ne batasobola kunywa ku mazzi gaawo, kubanga gaali gakaawa: era eyo y’ensonga eyatuumisa ekifo ekyo Mala.
And they came to Marah; but they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore they called its name Marah.
24 Abantu ne beemulugunyiza Musa, ne bamubuuza nti, “Tunywe ki?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 Musa ne yeegayirira Mukama; Mukama n’amulaga ekitundu ky’omuti. Bwe yakisuula mu mazzi, amazzi ne gaba malungi okunywa. Mu kifo kino Mukama we yabaweera ekiragiro kino n’etteeka, era n’abagezesa
And he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord showed him a tree, which he cast into the waters, and the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them.
26 ng’agamba nti, “Singa muwuliriza eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda wammwe n’obwegendereza, ne mukola ebyo by’alaba nga bituufu, ne mussaayo omwoyo ku biragiro bye, era ne mugondera amateeka ge, sigenda kubaleetako ndwadde n’emu, ng’ezo ze naleetera Abamisiri, kubanga nze Mukama, nze mbawonya endwadde zammwe.”
And he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his eyes, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and wilt keep all his statutes: I will put none of those diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I the Lord am thy physician.
27 Awo ne batuuka mu Erimu, awaali ensulo ekkumi n’ebbiri, n’enkindu ensanvu; ne bakuba awo eweema zaabwe okumpi n’amazzi.
And they came to Elim, and there were twelve wells of water, and seventy palm-trees: and they encamped there by the water.
