Okuva 8
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Ggenda ewa Falaawo omugambe nti, ‘Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, “Leka abantu bange bagende, balyoke bansinze.
And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord: send forth my people, that they may serve me.
2 Naye bw’onoogaana n’otabakkiriza kugenda, laba, nnaasindika ebikere ne bijjula ensi yo yonna.
And if you will not send them forth, behold, I afflict all your borders with frogs:
3 Omugga gulivaamu ebikere enkumu ennyo ebirituuka ne mu lubiri lwo. Biriyingira mu kisenge kyo mw’osula, ne ku kitanda kyo. Biriyingira mu nnyumba z’abaweereza bo ne mu z’abantu bo. Biriyingira ne mu byoto omufumbirwa.
and the river shall teem with frogs, and they shall go up and enter into your houses, and into your bed-chambers, and upon your beds, and upon the houses of your servants, and of your people and on your dough, and on your ovens.
4 Ebikere birikuwalampa ne bikutambulirako ne ku bakungu bo bonna ne ku bantu bo.”’”
And upon you, and upon your servants, and upon your people, shall the frogs come up.
5 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Tegeeza Alooni nti, ‘Golola omukono gwo oyolekeze omuggo gwo eri emigga, n’eri emikutu gy’amazzi, n’eri ebidiba, osobozese ebikere okubuna ensi yonna ey’e Misiri.’”
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron your brother, Stretch forth with the hand your rod over the rivers, and over the canals, and over the pools, and bring up the frogs.
6 Bw’atyo Alooni n’agolola omukono gwe ku mazzi gonna ag’omu Misiri; ebikere ne bivaayo ne bijjula ensi yonna ey’e Misiri.
And Aaron stretched forth his hand over the waters of Egypt, and brought up the frogs: and the frog was brought up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Abalogo nabo ne bakola bwe batyo mu magezi gaabwe ag’ekyama, nabo ne baleeta ebikere mu nsi ey’e Misiri.
And the charmers of the Egyptians also did likewise with their sorceries, and brought up the frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni n’abagamba nti, “Mwegayirire Mukama anziggyeeko ebikere bino era ne ku bantu bange, ndyoke nange ndeke abantu bammwe bagende baweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.”
And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said, Pray for me to the Lord, and let him take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will send them away, and they shall sacrifice to the Lord.
9 Musa n’addamu Falaawo nti, “Weerondere ekiseera nga bw’osiima, w’oyagalira neegayirire Mukama ku lulwo ne ku lw’abaweereza bo, ne ku lw’abantu bo, ebikere ebikuliko n’ebiri mu nnyumba zo bizikirizibwe, bisigale mu mugga Kiyira mwokka.”
And Moses said to Pharao, Appoint me [a time] when I shall pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to cause the frogs to disappear from you, and from your people, and from your houses, only in the river shall they be left behind.
10 Falaawo n’agamba nti, “Enkya.” Musa n’agamba nti, “Kijja kubeera nga bw’ogambye, olyoke otegeere nga bwe watali n’omu afaanana nga Mukama Katonda waffe.
And he said, On the morrow: he said therefore, As you has said; that you may know, that there is no other [God] but the Lord.
11 Ebikere bijja kukuviira, bive ne mu mayumba go, biviire n’abaweereza bo n’abantu bo; bijja kusigala mu mugga mwokka.”
And the frogs shall be removed away from you, and from your houses and from the villages, and from your servants, and from your people, only in the river they shall be left.
12 Awo Musa ne Alooni ne bava ewa Falaawo. Musa ne yeegayirira Mukama olw’ebikere Mukama bye yali aleetedde Falaawo.
And Moses and Aaron went forth from Pharao, and Moses cried to the Lord concerning the restriction of the frogs, as Pharao appointed him.
13 Mukama n’akolera Musa kye yamusaba. Ebikere ne bifiira mu mayumba, ne mu mpya mu byalo, ne mu nnimiro.
And the Lord did as Moses said, and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields.
14 Ne bikuŋŋaanyizibwa entuumo n’entuumo; ensi n’ejjula ekivundu.
And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Naye Falaawo bwe yalaba nga waliwo wassiza ku mukka, n’akakanyaza omutima gwe, ebya Musa ne Alooni n’alekera awo okubiwuliriza, era nga Mukama bwe yali agambye.
And when Pharao saw that there was relief, his heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the Lord spoke.
16 Awo Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa nti, “Gamba Alooni bw’oti nti, ‘Golola omuggo gwo, okube ku nfuufu eri ku ttaka, eryoke efuuke ensekere mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri.’”
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth your rod with your hand and strike the dust of the earth; and there shall be lice both upon man, and upon quadrupeds, and in all the land of Egypt.
17 Ne bakola nga Mukama bw’abagambye; Alooni n’agolola omukono gwe ogwali gukute omuggo, n’akuba ku nfuufu ku ttaka, ne muvaamu ensekere ne zitambulira ku bantu ne ku nsolo; enfuufu yonna mu nsi y’e Misiri n’efuuka nsekere.
So Aaron stretched out his rod with his hand, and struck the dust of the earth; and the lice were on men and on quadrupeds, and in all the dust of the earth there were lice.
18 Abalogo nabo ne bagezaako mu magezi gaabwe ag’ekyama okufuusa ensekere, naye ne balemwa. Ensekere ne ziteevuunya ku bantu ne ku nsolo.
And the charmers also did so with their sorceries, to bring forth the louse, and they could not. And the lice were both on the men and on the quadrupeds.
19 Abalogo ne bagamba Falaawo nti, “Engalo ya Katonda bino y’ebikoze.” Naye omutima gwa Falaawo ne gukakanyala, n’atabawuliriza, nga Mukama bwe yali agambye.
So the charmers said to Pharao, This is the finger of God. But the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he listened not to them, as the Lord said.
20 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Keera mu makya nnyo, ogende osisinkane Falaawo ng’aserengeta ku mazzi omugambe nti, ‘Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, Leka abantu bange bagende, bansinze.
And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao: and behold, he will go forth to the water, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord: Send away my people, that they may serve me in the wilderness.
21 Naye abantu bange bw’otoobakkirize kugenda, laba, ndireeta ebikuukuulu by’ensowera, ku ggwe ne ku baweereza bo, ne ku bantu bo, ne mu nnyumba zammwe. Ensowera zirijjula mu mayumba ga Bamisiri ne ku ttaka kwe gaazimbibwa.
And if you will not let my people go, behold, I send upon you, and upon your servants, and upon your people, and upon your houses, the dog-fly; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with the dog-fly, even throughout the land upon which they are.
22 “‘Naye ku lunaku olwo, ekitundu Goseni abantu bange gye babeera ndikiyisa mu ngeri ya njawulo; kubanga yo teribaayo bikuukuulu bya nsowera n’akatono, olyoke otegeere nga nze, Mukama, ndi wano wakati mu nsi.
and I will distinguish marvellously in that day the land of Gesem, on which my people dwell, in which the dog-fly shall not be: that you may know that I am the Lord the God of all the earth.
23 Nzija kussaawo enjawulo wakati w’abantu bange n’abantu bo. Ekyamagero kino kijja kubaawo enkeera.’”
And I will put a difference between my people and your people, and on the morrow shall this be on the land. And the Lord did thus.
24 Mukama n’akola bw’atyo. Ebikuukuulu by’ensowera ne byeyiwa mu lubiri lwa Falaawo, mu nnyumba ye, ne mu mayumba g’abaweereza be, ne mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri: ensi n’eyonooneka olw’ebikuukuulu by’ensowera.
And the dog-fly came in abundance into the houses of Pharao, and into the houses of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt; and the land was destroyed by the dog-fly.
25 Awo Falaawo n’atumira Musa ne Alooni, n’abagamba nti, “Kale, muweereeyo wano mu nsi eno ssaddaaka eri Katonda wammwe.”
And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, saying, Go and sacrifice to the Lord your God in the land.
26 Naye Musa n’addamu nti, “Ekyo bwe tukikola, tekijja kuba kituufu. Kubanga ssaddaaka ze tuwaayo eri Mukama Katonda waffe, Abamisiri tebajja kuzaagala. Kale singa tuddira ssaddaaka Abamisiri ze bakyawa ennyo bwe batyo, ne tuziwaayo nga balaba, tebajja kutukuba amayinja?
And Moses said, It can’t be so, for we shall sacrifice to the Lord our God the abominations of the Egyptians; for if we sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians before them, we shall be stoned.
27 Kitugwanira tutambule olugendo lwa nnaku ssatu mu ddungu, tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda waffe nga bw’anaatulagira.”
We will go a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as the Lord said to us.
28 Falaawo n’agamba nti, “Nzija kubaleka mugende muweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda wammwe mu ddungu, kyokka temugenda ewala ennyo. Kale munsabire.”
And Pharao said, I [will] let you go, and do you sacrifice to your God in the wilderness, but do not go very far away: pray then for me to the Lord.
29 Musa n’addamu nti, “Bwe nnaaba nakava wano w’oli nzija kusaba Mukama, enkya ensowera ziviire Falaawo n’abakungu be awamu n’abantu be. Naye kirungi Falaawo aleme nate kulimbalimba, n’atakkiriza bantu kugenda kuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.”
And Moses said, I then will go forth from you and pray to God, and the dog-fly shall depart both from your servants, and from your people to-morrow. Do not you, Pharao, deceive again, so as not to send the people away to do sacrifice to the Lord.
30 Musa n’avaayo ewa Falaawo, n’asaba Mukama.
And Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to God.
31 Mukama n’akola nga Musa bwe yamusaba, n’aggyawo ebikuukuulu by’ensowera ewa Falaawo ne mu baweereza be, ne mu bantu be; ne watasigala nsowera n’emu.
And the Lord did as Moses said, and removed the dog-fly from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people, and there was not one left.
32 Kyokka ne ku mulundi guno, Falaawo yakakanyaza omutima gwe, abantu n’atabakkiriza kugenda.
And Pharao hardened his heart, even on this occasion, and he would not send the people away.
