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 YHWH says to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have declared his heart hard, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these signs of Mine in their midst,
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 so that you recount in the ears of your son, and of your son’s son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
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 comes in—Aaron also—to Pharaoh, and they say to him, “Thus said YHWH, God of the Hebrews: Until when have you refused to be humbled at My presence? Send My people away, and they serve Me,
4 Yoo ati gad isaan dhiisuu didde, kunoo ani bori biyya keetti hawwaannisa nan fida.
for if you are refusing to send My people away, behold, tomorrow I am bringing in the locust into your 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 it has covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it has eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it has eaten every tree which is springing out of the field for you;
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 they have filled your houses, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither your fathers nor your father’s fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground to this day.” And he turns and goes 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 the servants of Pharaoh say to him, “Until when does this [one] become a snare to us? Send the men away, and they serve their God YHWH; do you not yet know that Egypt has perished?”
8 Musee fi Aroonin deebisanii Faraʼoonitti geessan; Faraʼoonis, “Dhaqaatii Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan waaqeffadhaa! Garuu eenyutu deema?” jedheen.
And Moses is brought back—Aaron also—to Pharaoh, and he says to them, “Go, serve your God YHWH, but who—who [are] those going?”
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 says, “With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to YHWH.”
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 says to them, “Be it so, YHWH [is] with you when I send you and your infants away; see—for evil [is] before your faces.
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, you who [are] men, and serve YHWH, for that you are seeking”; and [one] casts them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
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 YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goes up against the land of Egypt, and eats every herb of the land—all that the hail has 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 stretches out his rod against the land of Egypt, and YHWH has led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning has been, and the east wind has lifted up the locust.
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 locust goes up against all the land of Egypt, and rests in all the border of Egypt—very grievous: before it there has not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none 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.
and it covers the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eats every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail has left, and there has not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.
16 Faraʼoonis dafee Musee fi Aroonin waamee akkana jedheen; “Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii fi isinitti cubbuu hojjedheera.
And Pharaoh hurries to call for Moses and for Aaron and says, “I have sinned against your God YHWH, and against you,
17 Egaa mee cubbuu koo naa dhiisaa; akka inni dhaʼicha nama ajjeesu kana narraa fuudhuufis Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan naa kadhadhaa.”
and now, please bear with my sin, only this time, and make supplication to your God YHWH, that He may turn aside from off me only this death.”
18 Museenis Faraʼoon biraa gad baʼee Waaqayyo kadhate.
And he goes out from Pharaoh, and makes supplication to YHWH,
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 YHWH turns a very strong sea wind, and it lifts up the locust, and blows it into the Red Sea—there has not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
20 Waaqayyo garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa godhe; Faraʼoonis Israaʼeloota gad hin dhiifne.
and YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh, and he has not sent the sons of Israel away.
21 Waaqayyo immoo Museedhaan, “Akka dukkanni Gibxi irra buʼuuf harka kee gara samiitti diriirsi” jedhe.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.”
22 Museen harka isaa gara samiitti diriirse; dukkanni limixiin isaa guyyaa sadii Gibxi guutuu haguuge.
And Moses stretches out his hand toward the heavens, and there is darkness—thick darkness in all the land of Egypt [for] 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 have not seen one another, and none has risen from his place [for] three days; but there has been light for all the sons of Israel 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 calls to Moses and says, “Go, serve YHWH, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants 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 says, “You also give sacrifices and burnt-offerings in our hand, and we have prepared for our God YHWH;
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.”
and also our livestock go with us—there is not left a hoof, for we take from it to serve our God YHWH; and we do not know how we serve YHWH until our going there.”
27 Waaqayyo garuu Faraʼoonin mata jabeessa godhe; innis gad isaan dhiisuu dide.
And YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh, and he has not been willing to send them away;
28 Faraʼoonis Museedhaan, “Fuula koo duraa badi! Lammata fuula koo akka hin argine beekkadhu; ati gaafa fuula koo argite ni duuta!” jedhe.
and Pharaoh says to him, “Go from me, take heed to yourself, do not add to see my face, for in the day you see my face you die”;
29 Museenis deebisee, “Akkuma ati jette, ani lammata fuula keetti hin mulʼadhu” jedhe.
and Moses says, “You have spoken correctly, I do not add to see your face anymore.”
