Baxniintii 1

1 Haddaba waa kuwan magacyadii wiilashii Israa'iil, oo Masar yimid; nin walba iyo reerkiisiiba waxay la yimaadeen Yacquub.

Now these are the names of the children of Israel, that came into Egypt with Jacob, every man and his household they came.

2 Ruubeen, Simecoon, Laawi iyo Yahuudah,

Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

3 Isaakaar, Sebulun, iyo Benyaamiin,

Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

4 Daan iyo Naftaali, iyo Gaad iyo Aasheer.

Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

5 Oo dadkii ka soo go'ay xanjaadkii Yacquub oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen toddobaatan qof; Yuusufna Masar buu markii hore joogay.

And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls; together with Joseph who was already in Egypt.

6 Yuusufna, iyo walaalihiis, iyo farcankaas oo dhanba way wada dhinteen.

And Joseph died, and all his brothers, and all that generation.

7 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa bateen, oo aad bay u kordheen, wayna tarmeen, oo aad iyo aad u xoogaysteen; dhulkiina way buuxiyeen.

And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

8 Haddaba Masar waxaa ka kacay boqor cusub oo aan Yuusuf aqoonin.

Now there rose up a new king over Egypt, who knew not Joseph.

9 Markaasuu wuxuu dadkiisii ku yidhi, Bal eega, dadkii reer binu Israa'iil waa inaga badan yihiin, wayna inaga xoog weyn yihiin.

And he said unto his people: Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more numerous and mightier than we.

10 Kaalaya, aynu si caqli ah ula macaamiloonnee; waaba intaasoo ay tarmaan, oo ay markuu dagaal dhaco cadaawayaasheenna inoogu darmadaan, oo intay inala diriraan ay dalka ka baxaane.

Come, let us deal wisely with them lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there happen to be a war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and depart out of the land.

11 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ayay niman madax uga dhigeen si ay culaabtooda ugu dhibaan, oo waxay Fircoon u dhiseen magaalooyin wax lagu kaydiyo oo la yidhaahdo Fitom iyo Racmeses.

And they set over taskmasters, to afflict them with their burdensome labors; and they built treasure cities, for Pharaoh, Pithom and Raamses.

12 Laakiinse in kastoo ay aad u dhibeen, haddana aad bay u sii tarmeen, oo aad bay u faafeen. Oo reer binu Israa'iil aawadood ayay la murugaysnaayeen.

But in the measure that they afflicted them, so they multiplied and so they spread out; and they felt abhorrence because of the children of Israel.

13 Oo Masriyiintiina waxay reer binu Israa'iil ku qasbeen inay qaxar ku adeegaan,

And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to labor with rigor:

14 oo waxay naftoodii ku dhibeen hawl aad u adag, oo ahayd dhoobo la qaso, iyo leben, iyo hawl kasta oo beeraha laga qabto, oo hawl kastoo ay ku qasbeen inay qabtaanba way ku qaxri jireen.

And they made their lives bitter with hard labor, in mortar, and in bricks, and in all manner of labor in the field; in all their service, wherein they made them labor with rigor.

15 Markaasaa boqorkii Masar wuxuu la hadlay umulisooyinkii Cibraaniyadaha ahaa, oo middood magaceeda Shifraah la odhan jiray, tan kale magaceedana Fuwah la odhan jiray,

And the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah;

16 oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Markii aad umulinaysaan naagaha Cibraaniyadaha, oo aad aragtaan iyagoo gambarka umusha fadhiya, haddii uu wiil yahay, waa inaad dishaan, haddayse gabadh tahay, ha iska noolaato.

And he said: When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, ye shall look upon the birth; if it be a son, then shall ye kill him; but if it be a daughter, then may she live.

17 Laakiinse umulisooyinkii Ilaah bay ka cabsadeen, mana ay samayn wixii boqorkii Masar ku amray, ee way badbaadiyeen carruurtii labka ahayd.

But the midwives feared God, and they did not as the king of Egypt had commanded them, but saved the men-children alive.

18 Markaasaa boqorkii Masar u yeedhay umulisooyinkii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaad waxan u samayseen, oo aad u badbaadiseen carruurtii labka ahayd?

And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and he said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men-children alive?

19 Markaasaa umulisooyinkii waxay Fircoon ku yidhaahdeen, Maxaa yeelay, naagaha Cibraaniyaduhu la mid ma aha naagaha Masriga, oo waa ka dhaqso badan yihiin, oo intii aan umulisooyinku u iman bay umulaan.

And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively; ere the midwife cometh in unto them they are delivered.

20 Haddaba Ilaah si wanaagsan buu u sameeyey umulisooyinkii, dadkiina waa tarmay, oo aad bay u xoogaysteen.

And God dealt well with the midwives; and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

21 Oo waxay noqotay, in Ilaah umulisooyinkii reero u yeelay, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah bay ka cabsadeen.

And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.

22 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu dadkiisii ku amray, oo ku yidhi, Wiil kasta oo dhasha waa inaad webiga ku tuurtaan, laakiinse gabadh kasta waa inaad badbaadisaan.

And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.
