Okuva 6

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.”

Then the LORD said to 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 from his land.

2 Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Nze Mukama.

And God spoke to Moses, and said to him, I [am] the LORD:

3 Nalabikira Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo nga Katonda Ayinzabyonna; kyokka saabategeeza linnya lyange nti Nze Mukama.

And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by [the name of] God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.

4 Era nabasuubiza mu ndagaano yange okubawa ensi ya Kanani, gye baabeerangamu ng’abagwira abatambuze.

And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they were strangers.

5 Kaakano mpulidde okusinda kw’abaana ba Isirayiri abatuntuzibwa Abamisiri mu buddu, ne nzijukira endagaano yange.

And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage: 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.

Wherefore say to the children of Israel, I [am] the LORD, and I will bring you from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with out-stretched arm, and with 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 me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD your God, who bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

8 Ndibaleeta mu nsi gye nalayira okuwa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka ne Yakobo; ndigibawa n’efuuka yammwe. Nze Mukama.’”

And I will bring you into the land, concerning which I swore to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: 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 spoke so to the children of Israel: but they hearkened not to Moses, by reason of anguish of spirit, and cruel bondage.

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, speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel depart from his land.

12 Naye Musa n’addamu Mukama nti, “Laba, abaana ba Isirayiri bagaanyi okumpuliriza, kale Falaawo anampuliriza atya nze atayogera bulungi?”

And Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened to me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who [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.

And the LORD spoke to Moses, and to Aaron, and gave them a charge to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

And Moses said before the LORD, Behold, I [am] of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken to me?
