Baʼuu 14
1 Ergasii Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 “Akka isaan of irra garagalanii Phii Hahiiroti bira, Migdoolii fi galaana gidduu qubatan Israaʼelootatti himi. Isaan fuullee Baʼaal Zefoon, galaana cina qubachuu qabu.
Give orders to the children of Israel to go back and put up their tents before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon, opposite to which you are to put up your tents by the sea.
3 Faraʼoonis, ‘Israaʼeloonni burjaajaʼanii biyya keessa jooraa jiru; gammoojjiin isaan marseera’ jedhee yaade.
And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are wandering without direction, they are shut in by the waste land.
4 Anis garaa Faraʼoon nan jabeessa; inni faana dhaʼee isaan duukaa buʼa. Anis karaa Faraʼooniitii fi karaa loltoota isaa hundaatiin ofii kootiif ulfina nan argadha; warri Gibxi akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.” Israaʼeloonnis akkasuma godhan.
And I will make Pharaoh's heart hard, and he will come after them and I will be honoured over Pharaoh and all his army, so that the Egyptians may see that I am the Lord. And they did so.
5 Mootiin Gibxi akka sabni sun baqatee baʼe yommuu itti himametti Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltonni isaa yaada waaʼee saba sanaa qaban geeddarratanii, “Akka sabni Israaʼel nu tajaajiluu dhiisee deemuuf gad dhiisuun keenya maal gochuu keenya?” jedhan.
And word came to Pharaoh of the flight of the people: and the feeling of Pharaoh and of his servants about the people was changed, and they said, Why have we let Israel go, so that they will do no more work for us?
6 Innis gaarii isaa qopheeffatee, loltoota isaas fudhatee kaʼe.
So he had his war-carriage made ready and took his people with him:
7 Gaariiwwan filatamoo dhibba jaʼa, gaariiwwan Gibxi biraa hunda kanneen ajajjuuwwan isaan hunda irra jiran fudhatee kaʼe.
And he took six hundred carriages, all the carriages of Egypt, and captains over all of them.
8 Waaqayyos Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi mata jabeessa godhe; Faraʼoonis Israaʼeloota warra sodaa malee baʼaa turan sana duukaa buʼee ariʼe.
And the Lord made the heart of Pharaoh hard, and he went after the children of Israel: for the children of Israel had gone out without fear.
9 Warri Gibxis fardeenii fi gaariiwwan Faraʼoon hundi, abbootiin fardaatii fi loltoonni lafoon Israaʼeloota duukaa buʼanii isaanii Phii Hahiiroti bira fuullee Baʼaal Zefoon qarqara galaanaa qubatanii jiran qaqqaban.
But the Egyptians went after them, all the horses and carriages of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them in their tents by the sea, by Pihahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
10 Yeroo Faraʼoon itti dhiʼaatettis Israaʼeloonni ol ilaalanii kunoo warri Gibxi dugda duubaan isaan faana dhufan argan. Isaanis sodaatanii Waaqayyotti iyyatan.
And when Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians coming after them, and were full of fear; and their cry went up to God.
11 Isaanis Museedhaan akkana jedhan; “Ati waan iddoon awwaalaa Gibxi hin jirreef akka nu gammoojjii keessatti dhumnuuf as nu fiddee? Ati Gibxi nu baasuun kee maal nu gochuu kee ti?
And they said to Moses, Was there no resting-place for the dead in Egypt, that you have taken us away to come to our death in the waste land? why have you taken us out of Egypt?
12 Nu Gibxi keessatti, ‘Akka warra Gibxi tajaajilluuf nu dhiisi’ siin hin jennee? Gammoojjii keessatti dhumuu irra warra Gibxi tajaajiluu nuu wayya ture!”
Did we not say to you in Egypt, Let us be as we are, working for the Egyptians? for it is better to be the servants of the Egyptians than to come to our death in the waste land.
13 Museen akkana jedhee saba sanaaf deebise; “Hin sodaatinaa; jabaadhaa dhaabadhaa! Fayyisuu Waaqayyoo kan inni harʼa isinii godhu ilaalaa! Warra Gibxi kan harʼa argitan kana lammata deebitanii hin argitan.
But Moses said, Keep where you are and have no fear; now you will see the salvation of the Lord which he will give you today; for the Egyptians whom you see today you will never see again.
14 Waaqayyo isiniif lola; isin gab jedhaa.”
The Lord will make war for you, you have only to keep quiet.
15 Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ati maaliif natti iyyita? Akka isaan adeemsa isaanii itti fufaniif Israaʼelootatti himi.
And the Lord said to Moses, Why are you crying out to me? give the children of Israel the order to go forward.
16 Ulee kee ol fuudhiitii harka kee galaana irra diriirfadhu; akka Israaʼeloonni lafa gogaa irra galaana gidduu darbaniif bishaan gargari qoodi.
And let your rod be lifted up and your hand stretched out over the sea, and it will be parted in two; and the children of Israel will go through on dry land.
17 Ani immoo akka isaan dugda isaanii duubaan seenaniif garaa warra Gibxi nan jabeessa. Anis Faraʼoonii fi loltoota isaa hunda irratti, gaariiwwan isaatii fi abbootii fardaa isaa irratti ulfina nan argadha.
And I will make the heart of the Egyptians hard, and they will go in after them: and I will be honoured over Pharaoh and over his army, his war-carriages, and his horsemen.
18 Yeroo ani Faraʼoon irratti, gaariiwwan isaatii fi abbootii fardaa isaa irratti ulfina argadhutti warri Gibxi akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
And the Egyptians will see that I am the Lord, when I get honour over Pharaoh and his war-carriages and his horsemen.
19 Yommus ergamaan Waaqayyoo kan saba Israaʼel dura deemaa ture sun kaʼee gara dugda isaanii duubaatti darbe. Utubaan duumessaa sunis fuula isaanii duraa kaʼee isaan duuba dhaabate;
Then the angel of God, who had been before the tents of Israel, took his place at their back; and the pillar of cloud, moving from before them, came to rest at their back:
20 utubaan sunis loltoota Gibxii fi loltoota Israaʼel gidduu seene. Duumessi sun halkan sana gama tokkotti dukkana, gama kaanitti immoo ifa fide; kanaafuu halkan sana guutuu garee lamaan keessaa tokko illee garee kaanitti hin dhiʼaanne.
And it came between the army of Egypt and the army of Israel; and there was a dark cloud between them, and they went on through the night; but the one army came no nearer to the other all the night.
21 Museenis harka isaa galaana irra diriirfate; Waaqayyos halkan sana guutuu bubbee baʼa biiftuu jabaadhaan galaanicha gara duubaatti deebisee galaanicha lafa gogaa godhe. Bishaan sunis gargari qoodame;
And when Moses' hand was stretched out over the sea, the Lord with a strong east wind made the sea go back all night, and the waters were parted in two and the sea became dry land.
22 Israaʼeloonnis galaanicha gidduu lafa gogaa irra darban; bishaanichis karaa mirgaa isaaniitii fi karaa bitaa isaanii keenyan taʼeef.
And the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land: and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.
23 Warri Gibxi isaan duukaa buʼanii fardeen Faraʼoon, gaariiwwan isaatii fi abbootiin fardaa isaa galaana seenan.
Then the Egyptians went after them into the middle of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses and his war-carriages and his horsemen.
24 Yommuu lafti bariʼetti Waaqayyo utubaa ibiddaatii fi duumessaa keessaa loltoota Gibxi sana gad ilaalee gara itti goran isaan wallaalchise.
And in the morning watch, the Lord, looking out on the armies of the Egyptians from the pillar of fire and cloud, sent trouble on the army of the Egyptians;
25 Akka isaan rakkinaan oofaniifis gommaa gaariiwwan isaanii irraa baase. Warri Gibxis, “Waan Waaqayyo gama Israaʼelootaa dhaabatee warra Gibxi lolaa jiruuf kottaa isaan duraa baqannaa” jedhan.
And made the wheels of their war-carriages stiff, so that they had hard work driving them: so the Egyptians said, Let us go in flight from before the face of Israel, for the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.
26 Waaqayyos Museedhaan, “Akka bishaanonni warra Gibxi irra, gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa isaanii irra garagalaniif harka kee galaana irratti diriirsi” jedhe.
And the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out over the sea, and the waters will come back again on the Egyptians, and on their war-carriages and on their horsemen.
27 Museenis harka isaa galaanicha irratti diriirse; yeroo lafti bariʼettis galaanni sun iddoo isaatti deebiʼe. Warri Gibxis bishaan sana jalaa baqatan; Waaqayyos haxaaʼee galaanatti isaan naqe.
And when Moses' hand was stretched out over the sea, at dawn the sea came flowing back, meeting the Egyptians in their flight, and the Lord sent destruction on the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
28 Bishaan sun iddoo isaatti deebiʼee gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa jechuunis loltoota Faraʼoon kanneen Israaʼeloota duukaa buʼanii galaana seenan sana hunda liqimse. Isaan keessaas namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
And the waters came back, covering the war-carriages and the horsemen and all the army of Pharaoh which went after them into the middle of the sea; not one of them was to be seen.
29 Israaʼeloonni garuu bishaanichi karaa mirga isaaniitii fi karaa bitaa isaaniitiin keenyan taʼeefii galaanicha keessa lafa gogaa irra darban.
But the children of Israel went through the sea walking on dry land, and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.
30 Gaafas Waaqayyo harka warra Gibxi jalaa Israaʼeloota baase; warri Israaʼelis reeffa warra Gibxi qarqara galaanaatti argan.
So that day the Lord gave Israel salvation from the hands of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the sea's edge.
31 Israaʼeloonnis yommuu humna guddaa kan Waaqayyo warra Gibxi irratti mulʼise sana arganitti, Waaqayyoon sodaatan; isaanis Waaqayyoo fi tajaajilaa isaa Musee amanan.
And Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done against the Egyptians, and the fear of the Lord came on the people and they had faith in the Lord and in his servant Moses.
