< Baʼuu 5 >
1 Ergasii Musee fi Aroon Faraʼoon bira dhaqanii, “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha; ‘Akka inni gammoojjiitti ayyaana naa ayyaanessuuf saba koo gad dhiisi.’”
Then afterwarde Moses and Aaron went and said to Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may celebrate a feast vnto me in the wildernesse.
2 Faraʼoon immoo, “Akka ani isaaf ajajamee Israaʼelin gad dhiisuuf Waaqayyo kun eenyu? Ani Waaqayyo sana hin beeku; Israaʼelinis gad hin dhiisu” jedhe.
And Pharaoh saide, Who is the Lord, that I should heare his voyce, and let Israel go? I knowe not the Lord, neither will I let Israel goe.
3 Isaanis akkana jedhan; “Waaqni Ibrootaa nutti dhufeera. Akka nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaaf aarsaa dhiʼeessinuuf gara gammoojjiitti karaa guyyaa sadii nuu eeyyami; akkas taʼuu baannaan inni dhaʼichaan yookaan goraadeedhaan nu dhaʼa.”
And they saide, We worship the God of the Ebrewes: we pray thee, let vs goe three daies iourney in the desert, and sacrifice vnto the Lord our God, least he bring vpon vs the pestilence or sword.
4 Mootiin Gibxi garuu, “Yaa Musee fi Aroon, isin maaliif saba kana hojii dhowwitu? Hojii keessanitti deebiʼaa!” isaaniin jedhe.
Then saide the King of Egypt vnto them, Moses and Aaron, why cause ye the people to cease from their workes? get you to your burdens.
5 Faraʼoonis ittuma fufee, “Kunoo sabni biyyattii amma baayʼateera; isin immoo hojii isaan dhowwaa jirtu” jedhe.
Pharaoh saide furthermore, Behold, much people is nowe in the lande, and ye make them leaue their burdens.
6 Guyyuma sana Faraʼoon akkana jedhee itti gaafatamtoota hojiitii fi qondaaltota sabaa ajaje;
Therefore Pharaoh gaue commandement the same day vnto the taskemasters of the people, and to their officers, saying,
7 “Siʼachi xuubii hojjechuudhaaf saba kanaaf cidii hin kenninaa; isaan ofuma isaaniitii dhaqanii cidii haa barbaaddatan.
Ye shall giue the people no more strawe, to make bricke (as in time past) but let them goe and gather them strawe them selues:
8 Garuu akka isaan lakkoobsa xuubii kan duraan hojjechaa turan sana hojjetan godhaa; hamma isaanitti ramadame hin hirʼisinaa. Isaan dhibaaʼoo dha; kanaafuu, ‘Nu dhaqnee Waaqa keenyaaf aarsaa dhiʼeessina’ jedhanii iyyaa jiru.
Notwithstanding lay vpon them the nober of bricke, which they made in time past, diminish nothing thereof: for they be idle, therefore they crie, saying, Let vs go to offer sacrifice vnto our God.
9 Akka isaan hojiidhaan qabamanii dubbii sobaatiif xiyyeeffannoo hin kennineef hojii isaanitti cimsaa.”
Lay more worke vpon the men, and cause them to do it, and let the not regard vaine words.
10 Itti gaafatamtoonni hojiitii fi qondaaltonni sabaa gad yaaʼanii saba sanaan akkana jedhan; “Faraʼoon akkana jedha: ‘Ani siʼachi cidii isinii hin kennu.
Then went the taskemasters of the people and their officers out, and tolde the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will giue you no more strawe.
11 Lafa itti argachuu dandeessan dhaqaatii ofii keessanii cidii barbaaddadhaa; hojiin keessan garuu gonkumaa hin hirʼatu.’”
Goe your selues, get you strawe where yee can finde it, yet shall nothing of your labour bee diminished.
12 Sabni sun qooda cidii, haafa walitti qabachuuf jedhee biyya Gibxii guutuu keessa faffacaʼe.
Then were the people scattered abroade throughout all the land of Egypt, for to gather stubble in steade of strawe.
13 Itti gaafatamtoonni sunis, “Isin hojii keessan kan guyyaa guyyaa akkuma yeroo cidiin ture sanaatti hojjedhaa raawwadhaa” jedhanii isaan jarjarsaa turan.
And the taskemasters hasted them, saying, Finish your dayes worke euery dayes taske, as ye did when ye had strawe.
14 Israaʼeloonni qondaaltota hojii taʼan kanneen itti gaafatamtoota garboota Faraʼooniin muudamanis reebamanii, “Isin kaleessaa fi harʼa maaliif qooda xuubii kan akka hojjettaniif isinii ramadame sana akkuma duriitti hin guuttanne?” jedhamanii gaafatamaa turan.
And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaohs taskemasters had set ouer them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore haue ye not fulfilled your taske in making bricke yesterday and to daye, as in times past?
15 Israaʼeloonni toʼattoota hojii taʼanis dhaqanii akkana jedhanii Faraʼoonitti iyyatan; “Ati maaliif tajaajiltoota kee akkas goota?
Then the officers of the children of Israel came, and cryed vnto Pharaoh, saying, Wherfore dealest thou thus with thy seruants?
16 Cidiin tajaajiltoota keetiif hin kennamu; taʼus, ‘Xuubii hojjedhaa!’ nuun jedhan. Kunoo tajaajiltoonni kee reebamaa jiru; balleessaan garuu kanuma saba keetii ti.”
There is no strawe giuen to thy seruantes, and they say vnto vs, Make bricke: and loe, thy seruants are beaten, and thy people is blamed.
17 Faraʼoonis akkana jedhe; “Isin dhibaaʼoo dha; isin dhibaaʼoo dha! Kanaafuu isin, ‘Nu dhaqnee Waaqayyoof aarsaa dhiʼeessina’ jettan.
But he said, Ye are to much idle: therfore ye say, Let vs goe to offer sacrifice to the Lord.
18 Amma dhaqaatii hojjedhaa; cidiin isiniif hin kennamu; garuu xuubii isinitti ramadame hojjetanii guutuu qabdu.”
Goe therefore nowe and worke: for there shall no strawe be giuen you, yet shall yee deliuer the whole tale of bricke.
19 Israaʼeloonni toʼattoota hojii taʼan yommuu, “Isin lakkoobsa xuubii kan guyyaa guyyaatti akka hojjettaniif isin irraa eegamu sana hirʼisuu hin qabdan” jedhamee isaanitti himametti akka rakkina keessa seenan hubatan.
Then the officers of the children of Israel sawe them selues in an euill case, because it was saide, Ye shall diminish nothing of your bricke, nor of euery dayes taske.
20 Yeroo Faraʼoon biraa gad baʼanitti utuu Musee fi Aroon isaan eeganuu argatan;
And they met Moses and Aaron, which stood in their way as they came out from Pharaoh,
21 isaanis, “Waan isin akka Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltonni isaa nu xireeffatan gootanii akka isaan nu ajjeesaniif goraadee harka isaanii keessa keessaniif Waaqayyo isinitti haa ilaalu; isinitti haa murus!” jedhan.
To whom they said, The Lord looke vpon you and iudge: for yee haue made our sauour to stinke before Pharaoh and before his seruants, in that ye haue put a sword in their hand to slay vs.
22 Museen gara Waaqayyootti deebiʼee akkana jedhe; “Yaa Gooftaa, ati maaliif saba kanatti rakkina fidde? Ati kanaaf na ergitee?
Wherefore Moses returned to the Lord, and saide, Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou thus sent me?
23 Gaafa ani maqaa keetiin dubbachuuf Faraʼoon bira dhaqee jalqabee inni saba keetti rakkinuma fidaa jira; ati garuu gonkumaa saba kee hin furre.”
For since I came to Pharaoh to speake in thy Name, he hath vexed this people, and yet thou hast not deliuered thy people.
