Baʼuu 10
1 Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Faraʼoonitti ol seeni; ani akka mallattoowwan koo kanneen isaan gidduutti hojjedhuuf jedhee Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltota isaa mata jabeeyyii godheera;
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in the midst of them,
2 kunis akka ati waan ani warra Gibxi godhe, mallattoo ani isaan gidduutti argisiises ijoollee keetii fi ijoollee ijoollee keetiitti himtee akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe akka beektaniif taʼe.”
and that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son’s son, what things I have wrought upon Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know that I am Jehovah.
3 Musee fi Aroonis Faraʼoon bira dhaqanii akkana jedhaniin; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Ibrootaa akkana jedha: ‘Ati hamma yoomiitti fuula koo duratti gad of qabuu didda? Akka isaan na tajaajilaniif saba koo gad dhiisi.
And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
4 Yoo ati gad isaan dhiisuu didde, kunoo ani bori biyya keetti hawwaannisa nan fida.
Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to-morrow will I bring locusts into thy border:
5 Hawwaannisni kunis hamma namni tokko iyyuu arguu dadhabutti lafa haguuga. Innis waanuma cabbii irraa isinii hafe illee ni fixa; mukkeen alatti isinii guddachaa jiranis nyaatee fixa.
and they shall cover the face of the earth, so that one shall not be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:
6 Inni mana kee, mana qondaaltota keetii hundaa fi mana warra Gibxi hundumaa guuta; kunis waan abbootiin keetii fi abbootiin abbootii keetii gaafa biyya kana qubatanii jalqabanii hamma harʼaatti hin arginii dha.’” Kana booddee Museen garagalee Faraʼoon biraa baʼe.
and thy houses shall be filled, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither thy fathers nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 Qondaaltonni Faraʼoonis, “Namichi kun hamma yoomiitti kiyyoo nutti taʼa? Namoonni kun akka Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii tajaajilaniif gad dhiisi. Akka Gibxi badde ati amma illee hin hubannee?” jedhaniin.
And Pharaoh’s servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
8 Musee fi Aroonin deebisanii Faraʼoonitti geessan; Faraʼoonis, “Dhaqaatii Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan waaqeffadhaa! Garuu eenyutu deema?” jedheen.
And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve Jehovah your God; but who are they that shall go?
9 Museenis, “Nu sababii ayyaana Waaqayyoo ayyaaneffannuuf dargaggoota keenyaa fi maanguddoota keenya, ilmaanii fi intallan keenya, bushaayee fi loon keenya qabannee deemna” jedhee deebise.
And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old; with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto Jehovah.
10 Faraʼoonis akkana jedhe; “Yoo ani dubartoota keessanii fi ijoollee keessan isin wajjin gad dhiise, mee Waaqayyo isin wajjin haa taʼu! Kunoo waan hamaatu isin dura jira.
And he said unto them, So be Jehovah with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.
11 Kun hin taʼu! Akka warri dhiiraa qofti dhaqanii Waaqayyo waaqeffatan godhaa; isin kanuma barbaaddaniitii.” Isaanis fuula Faraʼoon duraa gad baafaman.
Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve Jehovah; for that is what ye desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
12 Waaqayyos Museedhaan, “Akka hawwaannisni biyya Gibxitti buʼee biqiltuu lafa qotiisaa hunda, waan cabbii irraa hafe hundas nyaatuuf harka kee Gibxi irratti diriirsi” jedhe.
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.
13 Museenis ulee isaa Gibxi irratti diriirsinaan Waaqayyo guyyaa sana guutuu fi halkan sana guutuu akka bubbeen baʼa biiftuu biyyattii keessatti bubbisu godhe; ganama itti aanus bubbeen sun hawwaannisa fidee dhufe;
And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 hawwaannisni sunis Gibxi guutuu weerare; biyya hunda keessas baayʼinaan qubate. Dhaʼichi hawwaannisaa kan akkasii duraan takkumaa buʼee hin beeku; ergasiis takkumaa deebiʼee hin buune.
And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt; very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
15 Hawwaannisni sunis hamma lafti gurraachaʼutti lafa hunda haguuge; innis waan cabbii irraa hafe hunda, waan alatti biqile hunda, ija mukaa illee ni nyaate. Biyya Gibxi hunda keessatti wanni lalisaan tokko iyyuu muka irratti yookaan biqiltuu irratti hin hafne.
For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16 Faraʼoonis dafee Musee fi Aroonin waamee akkana jedheen; “Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii fi isinitti cubbuu hojjedheera.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you.
17 Egaa mee cubbuu koo naa dhiisaa; akka inni dhaʼicha nama ajjeesu kana narraa fuudhuufis Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan naa kadhadhaa.”
Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat Jehovah your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
18 Museenis Faraʼoon biraa gad baʼee Waaqayyo kadhate.
And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated Jehovah.
19 Waaqayyos bubbee sana gara bubbee lixa biiftuu jabaatti geeddare; bubbeen sunis hawwaannisa sana fuudhee Galaana Diimaatti naqe. Gibxi keessatti hawwaannisni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
And Jehovah turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea; there remained not one locust in all the border of Egypt.
20 Waaqayyo garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa godhe; Faraʼoonis Israaʼeloota gad hin dhiifne.
But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
21 Waaqayyo immoo Museedhaan, “Akka dukkanni Gibxi irra buʼuuf harka kee gara samiitti diriirsi” jedhe.
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
22 Museen harka isaa gara samiitti diriirse; dukkanni limixiin isaa guyyaa sadii Gibxi guutuu haguuge.
And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
23 Guyyaa sadan sana namni wal hin argu ture; lafa jiruus hin sochoʼu ture. Israaʼeloonni hundi garuu iddoo jiraatanitti ifa qabu turan.
they saw not one another, neither rose any one from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24 Faraʼoonis Musee ofitti waamee, “Dhaqaatii Waaqayyo waaqeffadhaa. Dubartoonnii fi ijoolleen keessanis isin wajjin haa deemani; bushaayee fi loon keessan qofa dhiisaa deemaa” jedheen.
And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve Jehovah; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.
25 Museen garuu akkana jedhe; “Ati akka nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaaf aarsaa fi qalma gubamu dhiʼeessinuuf nuu eeyyamuu qabda.
And Moses said, Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, that we may sacrifice unto Jehovah our God.
26 Horiin keenyas nu wajjin dhaquu qaba; kotteen tokko iyyuu hin hafu. Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya waaqeffachuuf isaan keessaa tokko tokkotti fayyadamna; hamma achi geenyutti Waaqayyo waaqeffachuuf maalitti akka fayyadamnu hin beeknu.”
Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind: for thereof must we take to serve Jehovah our God; and we know not with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come thither.
27 Waaqayyo garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa godhe; innis gad isaan dhiisuu dide.
But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let them go.
28 Faraʼoonis Museedhaan, “Fuula koo duraa badi! Lammata fuula koo akka hin argine beekkadhu; ati gaafa fuula koo argite ni duuta!” jedhe.
And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
29 Museenis deebisee, “Akkuma ati jette, ani lammata fuula keetti hin mulʼadhu” jedhe.
And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well; I will see thy face again no more.
