Eksodosy 4
1 Le hoe ty natoi’ i Mosè, Aa naho tsy miantok’ ahy iereo, tsy mijanjiñe ty feoko, fe hanao ty hoe, Tsy niheo ama’o t’Iehovà?
And Moses answered and said, If they believe me not, and do not listen to my voice (for they will say, God has not appeared to you), what shall I say to them?
2 Hoe t’Iehovà ama’e, Ino o am-pità’oo? Hoe re, Kobaiñe.
And the Lord said to him, What is this thing that is in your hand? and he said, A rod.
3 Le hoe re, Afetsaho an-tane eo. Aa le nafetsa’e an-tane naho ninjare mereñe vaho nidisaha’ i Mosè.
And he said, Cast it on the ground: and he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses fled from it.
4 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Ampitakaro ty fità’o, tsepaho añ’ohi’e—aa le nahiti’e ty fità’e nitsipaok’ aze vaho niheren-ko kobaiñe am-pità’e ao—
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch forth your hand, and take hold of its tail: so he stretched forth his hand and took hold of the tail,
5 hiantofa’ iareo te niheo ama’o t’Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo, t’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, i Andrianañahare’ Ietsàke vaho i Andrianañahare’ Iakòbe.
and it became a rod in his hand, —that they may believe you, that the God of your fathers has appeared to you, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.
6 Natovo’ Iehovà ama’e ty hoe, Aziliho añ-araña’o ao ty fità’o, le nazili’e añ-araña’e ao ty fità’e le ie nakare’e; hehe te angamae i fità’ey, hafotim-bolovaso.
And the Lord said again to him, Put your hand into your bosom; and he put his hand into his bosom, and brought his hand out of his bosom, and his hand became as snow.
7 Le hoe re, Ampolio añ-araña’o ao o fità’oo; aa le nazili’e añ-araña’e ao indraike i fità’ey naho nakare’e boak’ añ-araña’e ao, ie fa nibali-ko hambañe ami-ty sandri’e.
And he said again, Put your hand into your bosom; and he put his hand into his bosom, and brought his hand out of his bosom, and it was again restored to the complexion of his [other] flesh.
8 Aa naho tsy miantok’ azo ndra mijanjiñe ty feo’ i viloñe valoha’ey le hiantofe’iereo ty feo’ i viloñe faharoey.
And if they will not believe you, nor listen to the voice of the first sign, they will believe you [because] of the voice of the second sign.
9 Ie mboe tsy miantoke i viloñe roe rey naho tsy mañaoñe ty feo’o le anovizo rano boak’ amy Nailey naho adoaño an-tane maike eo, fa hinjare lio an-tane maike eo i rano rinambe’o amy sakaiy.
And it shall come to pass if they will not believe you for these two signs, and will not listen to your voice, that you shall take of the water of the river and pour it upon the dry land, and the water which you shall take from the river shall be blood upon the dry land.
10 Aa hoe t’i Mosè amy Iehovà, Ry Talèko, tsy mahafilañon-draho; ndra taolo ndra hirik’ amy nitsara’o amo mpitoro’oo, te mone midàm-bolañe vaho bedo-lela.
And Moses said to the Lord, I pray, Lord, I have not been sufficient in former times, neither from the time that you have begun to speak to your servant: I am weak in speech, and slow-tongued.
11 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e, Ia ro namboatse ty falie’ ondaty? Ia ro mamboatse ty bobo, ty giñe, ty mahaisake, vaho ty fey? Tsy Izaho Iehovà hao?
And the Lord said to Moses, Who has given a mouth to man, and who has made the very hard of hearing, and the deaf, the seeing and the blind? have not I, God?
12 Akia arè; himbaeko ty falie’o vaho hanareko azo ze ho saontsie’o.
And now go and I will open your mouth, and will instruct you in what you shall say.
13 Fe hoe re, Ry Talèko, ehe iraho am-pità’ i hirahe’oy.
And Moses said, I pray you, Lord, appoint another able [person] whom you shall send.
14 Niviañe amy Mosè amy zao ty haviñera’ Iehovà, le hoe re, Tsy apotako hao i rahalahi’o Aharone nte-Leviy, t’ie mahafirehake? Inao, mionjomb’ ama’o mb’etoa re hifañaoñe ama’o vaho hifale añ’arofo’e te mahaoniñe azo.
And the Lord was greatly angered against Moses, and said, Behold! is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he will surely speak to you; and, behold, he will come forth to meet you, and beholding you he will rejoice within himself.
15 Hisaontsy ama’e irehe vaho hajo’o am-palie’e o tsarao. Himbaeko ty falie’o naho i falie’ey vaho hañohako ama’ areo ze hanoe’ areo.
And you shall speak to him; and you shall put my words into his mouth, and I will open your mouth and his mouth, and I will instruct you in what you shall do.
16 Ie ty hisolo-falie azo am’ ondatio; ie ty ho falie ama’o vaho ho fanalolahy ama’e irehe.
And he shall speak for you to the people, and he shall be your mouth, and you shall be for him in things pertaining to God.
17 Rambeso am-pità’o o kobaiñeo, fa ama’e ty hanoe’o o viloñeo.
And this rod that was turned into a serpent you shall take in your hand, wherewith you shall work miracles.
18 Nienga t’i Mosè naho nibalike mb’ aman-drafoza’e Iitrò mb’eo nanao ty hoe, Ehe angao himpoly mb’amo rolongoko e Mitsraimeo handrèndreke hera mbe veloñe. Le hoe t’i Iitrò amy Mosè, Akia am-panintsiñañe,
And Moses went and returned to Jothor his father-in-law, and says, I will go and return to my brethren in Egypt, and will see if they are yet living. And Jothor said to Moses, Go in health. And in those days after some time, the king of Egypt died.
19 Hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè e Midiane ao, Akia, mimpolia mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo fa fonga nihomake ondaty nipay ty fiai’oo.
And the Lord said to Moses in Madiam, Go, depart into Egypt, for all that sought your life are dead.
20 Aa le nendese’ i Mosè i vali’ey naho o ana-dahi’eo naho nampiningire’e ami’ty borìke, le nimpoly mb’ an-tane Mitsraime mb’eo; le nitintiñe’ i Mosè am-pità’e i kobain’Añaharey.
And Moses took his wife and his children, and mounted them on the beasts, and returned to Egypt; and Moses took the rod [which he had] from God in his hand.
21 Aa hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Ie miheo mb’e Mitsraime añe, asoao te hanoe’o añ’atrefa’ i Parò ze hene viloñe napoko am-pita’o, fa hampandiereko ty arofo’e tsy hapo’e hañavelo ondatio.
And the Lord said to Moses, When you go and return to Egypt, see—all the miracles I have charged you with, you shall work before Pharao: and I will harden his heart, and he shall certainly not send away the people.
22 Le hoe ty hanoa’o amy Parò, Hoe t’Iehovà: Anako naho tañoloñoloñako t’Israele;
And you shall say to Pharao, These things says the Lord, Israel [is] my firstborn.
23 le hoe iraho ama’o, Angao hañavelo i anakoy hitoroñe ahy. F’ie mifoneñe tsy hampañavelo aze, inao arè: havetrako ty ana-dahi’o, i tañoloñoloña’oy.
And I said to you, Send away my people, that they may serve me: now if you will not send them away, see, I will kill your firstborn son.
24 Ie amy liay, amy nialeña’ iareoy, le nifanampe ama’e t’Iehovà, ho nañè-doza ama’e.
And it came to pass [that] the angel of the Lord met him by the way in the inn, and sought to kill him.
25 Le rinambe’ i Tsiporàe ty vato masioñe le tinampa’e ty ofon’ ana-dahi’e naho nahifi’e am-pandia’eo vaho hoe re, Toe mpañenga-an-dio amako irehe!
and Sepphora having taken a stone cut off the foreskin of her son, and fell at his feet and said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched:
26 Aa le navotso’e vaho nanao ty hoe i rakembay, Ty valiko an-dio ty amy savatsey.
and he departed from him, because she said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched.
27 Hoe t’Iehovà amy Aharone, Akia mb’ am-patrambey añe hifanalaka amy Mosè. Aa le nimb’eo re nifanalaka ama’e am-bohin’ Añahare eo vaho norofa’e.
And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses; and he went and met him in the mount of God, and they kissed each other.
28 Nitaroñe’ i Mosè amy Aharone ze hene nitsarae’ Iehovà nañirak’ azey vaho i viloñe iaby nafanto’e ama’e rezay.
And Moses reported to Aaron all the words of the Lord, which he sent, and all the things which he charged him.
29 Nimb’ eo amy zao t’i Mosè naho i Aharone nanontoñe ze hene androanavi’ o ana’ Israeleo;
And Moses and Aaron went and gathered the elders of the children of Israel.
30 le nisaontsie’ i Aharone o nitsarae’ Iehovà amy Mosè iabio vaho nanoe’e am-pahaisaha’ ondatio o viloñeo.
And Aaron spoke all these words, which God spoke to Moses, and wrought the miracles before the people.
31 Niantoke ondatio, aa naho jinanji’ o ana’ Israeleo te nisary iareo t’Iehovà naho nivazohoe’e ty fisotria’ iareo, le niondreke vaho nitalaho.
and the people believed and rejoiced, because God visited the children of Israel, and because he saw their affliction: and the people bowed and worshipped.
