< Eksodosy 3 >
1 Ary Mosesy niandry ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Jetro rafozany, mpisorona tao Midiana, dia nitondra ny ondry aman’ osy tany ankoatry ny efitra ka nankany Horeba, tendrombohitr’ Andriamanitra.
When Moses kept the sheepe of Iethro his father in lawe, Priest of Midian, and droue the flocke to the backe side of the desert, and came to the Mountaine of God, Horeb,
2 Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah niseho taminy teo anaty lelafo teo amin’ ny roimemy anankiray; dia nijery izy, ka, indro, nirehitra afo ny roimemy, kanefa tsy nahalevonana.
Then the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him in a flame of fire, out of the middes of a bush: and he looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
3 Ary hoy Mosesy: Hivily kely aho ka hizaha io fahitana lehibe io, hahafantarako izay tsy ahalevonan’ ny roimemy.
Therefore Moses saide, I will turne aside nowe, and see this great sight, why the bush burneth not.
4 Ary rehefa hitan’ i Jehovah fa nivily hizaha izy, dia niantso azy tao afovoan’ ny roimemy Andriamanitra ka nanao hoe: Ry Mosesy, ry Mosesy! Dia hoy izy: Inty aho.
And when the Lord sawe that he turned aside to see, God called vnto him out of the middes of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he answered, I am here.
5 Ary hoy Izy: Aza manakaiky etỳ; esory ny kapanao amin’ ny tongotrao, fa tany masìna io ijanonanao io.
Then he saide, Come not hither, put thy shooes off thy feete: for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.
6 Dia hoy koa Izy: Izaho no Andriamanitry ny razanao, dia Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama sy Andriamanitr’ Isaka ary Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba. Dia nisaron-tava Mosesy, fa natahotra hijery an’ Andriamanitra izy.
Moreouer he saide, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Izhak, and the God of Iaakob. Then Moses hid his face: for he was afraid to looke vpon God.
7 Ary hoy Jehovah: Efa hitako tokoa ny fahorian’ ny oloko izay any Egypta, ary efa reko ny fitarainany noho ny ataon’ ny mpampiasa azy; eny, fantatro ny alahelony;
Then the Lord said, I haue surely seene the trouble of my people, which are in Egypt, and haue heard their crie, because of their taskemasters: for I knowe their sorowes.
8 dia efa nidina Aho izao hamonjy azy amin’ ny tanan’ ny Egyptiana ka hitondra azy hiakatra hiala amin’ izany tany izany ho any amin’ izay tany soa sy malalaka, dia any amin’ izay tany tondra-dronono sy tantely, any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kananita sy ny Hetita sy ny Amorita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita.
Therefore I am come downe to deliuer them out of the hande of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that lande into a good lande and a large, into a lande that floweth with milke and honie, euen into the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites.
9 Ary ankehitriny, indro, ny fitarainan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia efa mby atỳ amiko, sady efa hitako koa ny fahoriana izay ampahorian’ ny Egyptiana azy.
And now lo, the crie of the children of Israel is come vnto me, and I haue also seene ye oppression, wherewith the Egyptians oppresse them.
10 Koa avia ankehitriny ianao hirahiko ho any amin’ i Farao hitondra ny Zanak’ Isiraely oloko hivoaka avy any Egypta.
Come now therefore, and I will send thee vnto Pharaoh, that thou maiest bring my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
11 Fa hoy Mosesy tamin’ Andriamanitra: Iza moa aho no hankany amin’ i Farao sy hitondra ny Zanak’ Isiraely hivoaka avy any Egypta?
But Moses said vnto God, Who am I, that I should go vnto Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?
12 Ary hoy Izy: Homba anao tokoa Aho; ary izao no famantarana ho anao fa Izaho no efa naniraka anao; rehefa entinao mivoaka avy any Egypta ny olona, dia hanompo an’ Andriamanitra eto amin’ ity tendrombohitra ity ianareo.
And he answered, Certainely I will be with thee: and this shall be a token vnto thee, that I haue sent thee, After that thou hast brought the people out of Egypt, ye shall serue God vpon this Mountaine.
13 Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ Andriamanitra: Indro, rehefa tonga any amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely aho ka manao aminy hoe: Andriamanitry ny razanareo no efa naniraka ahy ho atỳ aminareo, ary hanao amiko hoe kosa izy: Iza moa no anarany? dia ahoana no havaliko azy?
Then Moses said vnto God, Behold, when I shall come vnto the children of Israel, and shall say vnto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me vnto you: if they say vnto me, What is his Name? what shall I say vnto them?
14 Ary hoy Andriamanitra tamin’ i Mosesy: IZAHO, IZAY IZY HATRIZAY HATRIZAY KA HO MANDRAKIZAY. Ary hoy koa Izy: Izao no holazainao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely: IZAHO IZAY Izy no efa naniraka ahy ho atỳ aminareo.
And God answered Moses, I Am That I Am. Also he said, Thus shalt thou say vnto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me vnto you.
15 Ary hoy koa Andriamanitra tamin’ i Mosesy: Izao no holazainao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo, dia Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama sy Andriamanitr’ i Isaka ary Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba, no efa naniraka ahy ho atỳ aminareo; izany no anarako mandrakizay, ary izany no hahatsiarovana Ahy hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
And God spake further vnto Moses, Thus shalt thou say vnto the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Izhak, and the God of Iaakob hath sent me vnto you: this is my Name for euer, and this is my memoriall vnto all ages.
16 Mandehana, dia angòny ny loholon’ ny Isiraely, ka lazao aminy hoe: Efa niseho tamiko Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo, dia Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba, ka nanao hoe: Efa namangy anareo tokoa Aho ka nahita ny anaovana anareo atỳ Egypta;
Go and gather the Elders of Israel together, and thou shalt say vnto the, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob appeared vnto me, and said, I haue surely remembred you, and that which is done to you in Egypt.
17 ary hoy Izaho: Hitondra anareo hiakatra Aho ho afaka amin’ ny fahoriana atỳ Egypta ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kananita sy ny Hetita sy ny Amorita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita, ho any amin’ izay tany tondra-dronono sy tantely.
Therefore I did say, I wil bring you out of the affliction of Egypt vnto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, vnto a lande that floweth with milke and honie.
18 Dia hihaino ny feonao izy; ary hankao amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta ianao sy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely ka hilaza aminy hoe: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Hebreo, efa nihaona taminay; ary ankehitriny, trarantitra ianao, aoka handeha lalan-kateloana any an-efitra izahay mba hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray.
Then shall they obey thy voyce, and thou and the Elders of Israel shall go vnto the King of Egypt, and say vnto him, The Lord God of the Ebrewes hath met with vs: we pray thee nowe therefore, let vs goe three dayes iourney in the wildernesse, that we may sacrifice vnto the Lord our God.
19 Kanefa Izaho mahalala fa tsy havelan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta handeha ianareo, tsia, na dia amin’ ny tanana mahery aza.
But I know, that the King of Egypt wil not let you goe, but by strong hande.
20 Dia haninjitra ny tanako Aho ka hamely an’ i Egypta amin’ ny fahagagana rehetra izay hataoko eo aminy; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia vao handefa anareo izy.
Therefore will I stretch out mine hande and smite Egypt with all my wonders, which I will doe in the middes thereof: and after that shall he let you goe.
21 Ary hataoko mahita fitia eo imason’ ny Egyptiana ity firenena ity, ka raha handeha ianareo, dia tsy mba handeha maina;
And I will make this people to be fauoured of the Egyptians: so that when ye go, ye shall not goe emptie.
22 fa ny vehivavy samy hangataka firavaka volafotsy sy volamena ary fitafiana amin’ ny miray monina aminy sy amin’ izay mivahiny ao an-tranony; dia hataonareo amin’ ny zanakareo-lahy sy ny zanakareo-vavy izany, ka dia hofoananareo ny Egyptiana.
For euery woman shall aske of her neighbour, and of her that soiourneth in her house, iewels of siluer and iewels of gold and raiment, and ye shall put them on your sonnes, and on your daughters, and shall spoyle the Egyptians.
