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.
Jehovah spoke to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, "This is what Jehovah says, 'Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Naye bw’onoogaana n’otabakkiriza kugenda, laba, nnaasindika ebikere ne bijjula ensi yo yonna.
If you refuse to let them go, look, I will plague 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 swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedchamber, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs:
4 Ebikere birikuwalampa ne bikutambulirako ne ku bakungu bo bonna ne ku bantu bo.”’”
and the frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.'"
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.’”
Jehovah said to Moses, "Tell Aaron your brother, 'Stretch forth your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.'"
6 Bw’atyo Alooni n’agolola omukono gwe ku mazzi gonna ag’omu Misiri; ebikere ne bivaayo ne bijjula ensi yonna ey’e Misiri.
Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came 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.
The magicians did in like manner with their secret arts, and brought up 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.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, "Pray to Jehovah, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah."
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.”
Moses said to Pharaoh, "I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only."
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.
He said, "Tomorrow." He said, "Be it according to your word, that you may know that there is none like Jehovah our God.
11 Ebikere bijja kukuviira, bive ne mu mayumba go, biviire n’abaweereza bo n’abantu bo; bijja kusigala mu mugga mwokka.”
The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only."
12 Awo Musa ne Alooni ne bava ewa Falaawo. Musa ne yeegayirira Mukama olw’ebikere Mukama bye yali aleetedde Falaawo.
Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to Jehovah concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Mukama n’akolera Musa kye yamusaba. Ebikere ne bifiira mu mayumba, ne mu mpya mu byalo, ne mu nnimiro.
Jehovah did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Ne bikuŋŋaanyizibwa entuumo n’entuumo; ensi n’ejjula ekivundu.
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.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and did not listen to them, as Jehovah had spoken.
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.’”
Jehovah said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Stretch out your staff, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout 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.
They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Abalogo nabo ne bagezaako mu magezi gaabwe ag’ekyama okufuusa ensekere, naye ne balemwa. Ensekere ne ziteevuunya ku bantu ne ku nsolo.
The magicians tried with their secret arts to bring forth lice, but they couldn't. There were lice on man, and on animal.
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.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God:" and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them; as Jehovah had spoken.
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.
Jehovah said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; look, he comes forth to the water; and tell him, 'This is what Jehovah says, "Let my people go, that they may serve me.
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.
Else, if you will not let my people go, look, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon 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.
I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end you may know that I am Jehovah in the midst of the earth.
23 Nzija kussaawo enjawulo wakati w’abantu bange n’abantu bo. Ekyamagero kino kijja kubaawo enkeera.’”
I will put a division between my people and your people: by tomorrow shall this sign be."'"
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.
Jehovah did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses: and in all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Awo Falaawo n’atumira Musa ne Alooni, n’abagamba nti, “Kale, muweereeyo wano mu nsi eno ssaddaaka eri Katonda wammwe.”
Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, "Go, sacrifice to 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?
Moses said, "It isn't appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Jehovah our God. Look, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and won't they stone us?
27 Kitugwanira tutambule olugendo lwa nnaku ssatu mu ddungu, tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda waffe nga bw’anaatulagira.”
We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God, as he shall command us."
28 Falaawo n’agamba nti, “Nzija kubaleka mugende muweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda wammwe mu ddungu, kyokka temugenda ewala ennyo. Kale munsabire.”
Pharaoh said, "I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me."
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.”
Moses said, "Look, I go out from you, and I will pray to God that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only do not let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Jehovah."
30 Musa n’avaayo ewa Falaawo, n’asaba Mukama.
Moses went out from Pharaoh, 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.
Jehovah did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
32 Kyokka ne ku mulundi guno, Falaawo yakakanyaza omutima gwe, abantu n’atabakkiriza kugenda.
Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.
