Eksodosy 2
1 Ie amy zao, nañenga ty anak’ ampela’ i Levy t’indaty boak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Levy.
A man of the house of Levi [United with] went and took a daughter of Levi [United with] as his wife.
2 Niareñe i rakembay, nitoly ana-dahy, le nioni’e te soa i ajajamenay vaho naeta’e telo volañe.
The woman conceived, and bore a son, upon seeing what a fine child he was, she hid him three months.
3 Aa ie tsy nahafañetak’ aze ka, le nangala’e vakoa-vinda naho nipakora’e mozòtse naho lite-laka vaho najo’e ao i anak’ ajajay vaho natsorofo’e am-binda añolon-drano ey.
When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.
4 Nijohañe ey ty zoke’e ampela nisamba ze hanoañe aze.
His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
5 Nizotso mb’an-tsaka mb’eo amy zao ty anak’ ampela’ i Parò hiandro, le nijelanjelañe añ’olotse ey o somondrara’eo. Aa naho nitrea’e añate-vinda ao i vakoay le nirahe’e hangalak’ aze ty mpitoro’e ampela,
Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her servant to get it.
6 vaho sinoka’e le nahaisake i anak’ ajajay. Nitañy i ajajamenay vaho niferenaiña’e, ami’ty hoe: Toe anan-te-Evre toke.
She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ [Immigrants’] children.”
7 Le hoe i rahavave’ey amy ana’ i Paròy, Akore t’ie añitrifako mpampinono amo rakemba nte-Evreo hampinono i ajajay?
Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?”
8 Akia, hoe i anak’ ampela’ i Paròy; aa le nimb’eo i ajajampelay nitoka ty rene’ i ajajay.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” The maiden went and called the child’s mother.
9 Hoe i ana’ i Paròy ama’e, Endeso ty ajaja toy le ampinonò ho ahiko vaho ho tambezeko irehe. Aa le nendese’ i rakembay i anak’ ajajay vaho nampinonoe’e.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” The woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 itombo i ajajay le nendese’e mb’amy anak’ampela’ i Paròy añe vaho rinambe’e ho ana-dahi’e. Natao’e Mosè ty añara’e amy ty hoe, Tinariko boak’an-drano.
The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses [Drawn out], and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
11 Ie te indraik’ andro naho fa niañoñ’ ay t’i Mosè, le niakatse mb’ am’ ondati’eo nahaoniñe ty nijinia’iareo naho nioni’e ty nte-Mitsraime namofoke ty nte-Evre, raik’ amo longo’eo.
In those days, when Moses [Drawn out] had grown up, he went out to his brothers, and looked at their burdens. He saw an Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery] striking a Hebrew [Immigrant], one of his brothers.
12 Nijilojilo mb’ etia mb’ eroy, aa ie tsy nahatrea ondaty, le nañohofa’e loza i nte-Mitsraimey vaho naeta’e am-paseñe ao.
He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery], and hid him in the sand.
13 Ie niakatse mb’eo naho loak’ andro le nanjo ty nte-Evre roe nifandrapake ty aly, le hoe re ami’ty aman-kakeo, Ino ty andafà’o o longo’oo?
He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews [Immigrants] were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?”
14 Le hoe re. Ia ty nañoriñ’ azo ho mpifehe naho mpizaka anay? Hañe-doza amako ka hao irehe manahake i namonoa’o i nte-Mitsraimeiy? Nihembañ’ amy zao t’i Mosè nitsakore ty hoe, Toe nirendreke i rahay.
He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery]?” Moses [Drawn out] was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.”
15 Jinanji’ i Parò, le nipay ty hañe-doza amy Mosè. Le nibioñe ami’ty tarehe’ i Parò t’i Mosè, noly mb’an-tane Midiane añe vaho niambesatse am-bovoñe eo.
Now when Pharaoh sh'ma ·heard obeyed· this thing, he sought to kill Moses [Drawn out]. But Moses [Drawn out] fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian [Strife], and he sat down by a well.
16 Aman-anak’ ampela fito ty mpisoro’ i Midiane. Nimb’ eo iereo nitari-drano nañatsake o dabaogao hampinomeñe ty lia-rain-drae’e.
Now the priest of Midian [Strife] had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 Pok’eo amy zao o mpiarak’ añondrio nanao soike iareo. Niongake t’i Mosè le rinomba’e le nampinome’e i lia-rai’iareoy.
The shepherds came and divorced them away; but Moses [Drawn out] stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 Ie nimpoly mb’an-drae’e Reoele mb’eo le hoe re, Ino ty nampasika ty fimpoli’ areo androany?
When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?”
19 Hoe iereo, Nañolots’ anay amo mpiarak’ añondrio ty nte-Mitsraime vaho nitariha’e rano mbore nampinome’e i lia-raikey.
They said, “An Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery] delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.”
20 Hoe re amo anak’ ampela’eo, Aia re? Ino ty nienga’ areo indatiy? Ambarao hikama.
He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.”
21 Niantofa’ i Mosè t’ie holy amy ‘ndatiy vaho natolo’e amy Mosè t’i Tsiporàe anak’ ampela’e ho vali’e.
Moses [Drawn out] was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses [Drawn out] Zipporah, his daughter.
22 Nahatoly ana-dahy ho aze re vaho natao’e Geresòme, ami’ty hoe, Renetane iraho mañialo an-tanen’ ambahiny.
She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.”
23 Ie roñoñe añe, nihomake i mpanjaka’ i Mitsraimey naho nampiselekaiñe o ana’ Israeleo i fandrohizañey, le nirohadrohake vaho nionjoñe mb’ aman’ Añahare boak’ amy fitromahañey ty fitoreo’ iareo.
In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt [Abode of slavery] died, and the children of Israel [God prevails] sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
24 Jinanjin’ Añahare ty toreo’ iareo vaho nitiahin’ Añahare i fañìna’e amy Avrahame naho am’ Ietsàke vaho am’ Iakòbey.
God sh'ma ·heard obeyed· their groaning, and God remembered his covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with Abraham [Father of a multitude], with Isaac [Laughter], and with Jacob [Supplanter].
25 Nivazohon’ Añahare o ana’ Israeleo vaho nihaoñen’ Andrianañahare.
God saw the children of Israel [God prevails], and God was concerned about them.
