1 Awo Mukama n’addamu Musa nti, “Kaakano ojja kulaba kye nnaakola Falaawo. Kubanga alibaleka ne bagenda olw’amaanyi, era olw’amaanyi alibagoba mu nsi ye.”
And the Lord said to Moses: Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharao: for by a mighty hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he cast them out of his land.
2 Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Nze Mukama.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: I am the Lord,
3 Nalabikira Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo nga Katonda Ayinzabyonna; kyokka saabategeeza linnya lyange nti Nze Mukama.
That appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by the name of God Almighty; and my name ADONAI I did not shew them.
4 Era nabasuubiza mu ndagaano yange okubawa ensi ya Kanani, gye baabeerangamu ng’abagwira abatambuze.
And I made a covenant with them, to give them the land of Chanaan, the land of their pilgrimage wherein they were strangers.
5 Kaakano mpulidde okusinda kw’abaana ba Isirayiri abatuntuzibwa Abamisiri mu buddu, ne nzijukira endagaano yange.
I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, wherewith the Egyptians have oppressed them: and I have remembered my covenant.
6 “Noolwekyo tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, ‘Nze Mukama. Ndibatikkulako emigugu gy’Abamisiri, era ndibawonya obuddu, ne mbanunula n’omukono gwange ogw’amaanyi nga nsalira Abamisiri omusango.
Therefore say to the children of Israel: I am the Lord who will bring you out from the work prison of the Egyptians, and will deliver you from bondage: and redeem you with a high arm, and great judgments.
7 Ndibafuula abantu bange, era nnaabeeranga Katonda wammwe, era mulitegeera nga nze Mukama Katonda wammwe abawonyezza ebizibu by’Abamisiri.
And I will take you to myself for my people, I will be your God: and you shall know that I am the Lord your God who brought you out from the work prison of the Egyptians.
8 Ndibaleeta mu nsi gye nalayira okuwa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka ne Yakobo; ndigibawa n’efuuka yammwe. Nze Mukama.’”
And brought you into the land, concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and I will give it you to possess, I am the Lord.
9 Musa n’ategeeza abaana ba Isirayiri ebigambo ebyo. Naye tebaamuwuliriza, kubanga emitima gyali gibennyise, nga n’okutuntuzibwa kubayitiridde.
And Moses told all this to the children of Israel: but they did not hearken to him, for anguish of spirit, and most painful work.
10 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
11 “Genda otegeeze Falaawo kabaka w’e Misiri aleke abaana ba Isirayiri bave mu nsi ye.”
Go in, and speak to Pharao king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
12 Naye Musa n’addamu Mukama nti, “Laba, abaana ba Isirayiri bagaanyi okumpuliriza, kale Falaawo anampuliriza atya nze atayogera bulungi?”
Moses answered before the Lord Behold the children of Israel do no hearken to me; and how will Pharao hear me, especially as I am of uncircumcised lips?
13 Naye Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa ne Alooni, n’abalagira bategeeze abaana ba Isirayiri ne Falaawo nti, Mukama abalagidde okuggya abaana ba Isirayiri mu nsi y’e Misiri.
