Baxniintii 14
1 Markaasaa Rabbigu la hadlay Muuse, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 La hadal reer binu Israa'iil oo u sheeg inay dib u soo noqdaan oo ay degaan meel ka horraysa Fiihaahiirod, oo u dhaxaysa Migdol iyo badda, kana horraysa Bacal Sefoon. Horteeda oo meel badda agteeda ah waa inaad degtaan.
“Tell the Israeli people to turn around and go back and set up their tents in front of Pi-Hahiroth [town]. That town is between Migdol and the sea, across from Baal-Zephon [town]. Set up your tents there, close to the sea.
3 Oo Fircoon wuxuu wax ka sheegi doonaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo odhan doonaa, Dhulkaa murgiyey, oo cidladaa xidhay iyagii.
When the king [knows you have done that], he will think, ‘The Israeli people are confused. They are wandering around, and the desert blocks their path.’
4 Oo anna waxaan qallafin doonaa Fircoon qalbigiisa, oo isna wuu soo raacdaysan doonaa iyaga; markaasaan Fircoon iyo ciidankiisaba ciso ka heli doonaa; Masriyiintuna waxay ogaan doonaan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga. Oo iyana sidii bay yeeleen.
But I will make the king stubborn [again], and he will [take his army and] pursue you. Then my people will praise/thank me for winning a victory over the king and his army. And the Egyptians will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].” So [Moses/I told my people that, and] they did what he/I told them to do.
5 Oo waxaa loo sheegay boqorkii Masar inay dadkii carareen; markaasaa Fircoon iyo addoommadiisii qalbigoodii wuxuu u rogmaday xaggii dadka, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Waxan aynu samaynay waa maxay, oo maxaynu reer binu Israa'iil uga sii daynay adeegiddii ay inoo adeegi jireen?
When someone told the king that the Israeli people had left [during the night], he and his officials changed their minds and said, “(What have we done?/What we have done was stupid!) [RHQ] The Israeli people will no longer be our slaves!”
6 Markaasuu wuxuu diyaarsaday gaadhifaraskiisii, oo wuxuu watay dadkiisii;
So the king got his chariot and his army ready.
7 Oo wuxuu kaxaystay lix boqol oo gaadhifaras ah oo la doortay, iyo gaadhifardoodkii Masar oo dhan, iyo saraakiil u sarraysa kulligood.
Then he selected 600 of the best chariots, and in each chariot he placed a driver, a soldier, and a commander, and they left. Other chariots, with a driver and a soldier in each of them, also went along.
8 Markaasaa Rabbigu qallafiyey qalbigii boqorkii Masar oo Fircoon ahaa; kolkaasuu wuxuu raacdaystay reer binu Israa'iil; waayo, reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku bexeen gacan sarraysa.
Because Yahweh made the king of Egypt so stubborn that he and his army went to pursue the Israelis, who were leaving triumphantly,
9 Markaasaa Masriyiintii iyagii raacdaysteen. Kulli Fircoon fardihiisii iyo gaadhifardoodkiisii oo dhan, iyo fardooleydiisii, iyo ciidankiisii ayaa raacdeeyey, oo waxay gaadheen iyagoo deggan meel badda u dhow, oo Fiihaahiirod dhinaceeda ah, kana horraysa Bacal Sefoon.
the Egyptian army, with all the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen, pursued the Israelis. They caught up with them as they were camped near the sea, close to Pi-Hahiroth, in front of Baal-Zephon [town].
10 Oo markii Fircoon soo dhowaaday, ayaa reer binu Israa'iil indhaha kor u taageen, oo waxay arkeen Masriyiintii oo soo daba socota; markaasay aad iyo aad u cabsadeen, oo reer binu Israa'iil ayaa Rabbiga u qayshaday.
When the king’s army got near, the Israeli people were surprised to see that the Egyptians were marching toward them. They were terrified; so they cried out to Yahweh [to help them].
11 Oo waxay Muuse ku yidhaahdeen, War ma xabaalaan jirin Masar, oo sidaa aawadeed aad noogu soo kaxaysay cidlada inaannu ku dhimanno? Maxaad sidan noogu gashay oo aad Masar nooga soo saartay?
Then they said to Moses/me, “Is it because there were no places in Egypt [where we could] be buried that you have brought us here to die in this desert [RHQ]? Look what you have done to us by bringing us out of Egypt [RHQ]!
12 Sow erayganu ma aha kii aannu kugula hadalnay Masar dhexdeeda, annagoo ku leh, Iska kaaya daa, aannu Masriyiinta u addeegnee? Waayo, waxaa noo wanaagsanaan lahayd inaannu Masriyiinta u adeegno, intii aannu cidlada ku dhiman lahayn.
That is what we told you when we were in Egypt! We said, ‘Leave us alone, and let us work for the Egyptians [RHQ]!’ It would have been better for us to be slaves for the Egyptians than to die here in the desert!”
13 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, War ha cabsanina, oo iska taagnaada, oo bal arka badbaadada uu Rabbigu maanta idiin samayn doono; waayo, Masriyiinta aad maanta aragteen, weligiin mar dambe ma arki doontaan.
Moses/I replied to the people, “Do not be afraid! Be brave, and see how Yahweh will rescue you! He will save you today, and the result will be that the Egyptians that you are looking at today—you will never see them again!
14 Oo Rabbigu aawadiin buu u diriri doonaa, oo idinku waa inaad iska aamusnaataan.
Yahweh will fight for you! Just keep quiet. There is nothing else that you will have to do.”
15 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, War maxaad iigu qaylinaysaa? Reer binu Israa'iil u sheeg inay hore u socdaan.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell the people to stop crying out for me [to help them], and tell them to go forward. Lift up your stick and stretch it out toward the sea. The water will divide, so that all you Israeli people can go in the middle of the sea, walking on dry ground.
16 Oo adigu ushaada kor u qaad, oo gacanta badda ku kor fidi, oo kala goo; oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay mari doonaan badda dhexdeeda oo ay ku socon doonaan dhul engegan.
17 Oo bal ogow, anigu waxaan qallafin doonaa qalbiga Masriyiinta, oo iyagay daba geli doonaan; oo markaasaan ciso ka heli doonaa Fircoon, iyo ciidankiisa oo dhan, iyo gaadhifardoodkiisa, iyo fardooleydiisa.
I will make the Egyptians stubborn, so that they will try to follow you. And then as a result of [what I will do to the] king and his army and his chariots and his horsemen, [my people] will praise/thank me.
18 Oo Masriyiintu markaasay garan doonaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay, kolkii aan sharaf ka helo Fircoon, iyo gaadhifardoodkiisa, iyo fardooleydiisa.
And when I have won a glorious [victory] over the king and his chariots and his horsemen, the [other] Egyptians will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
19 Markaasaa malaa'igtii Ilaah oo hor socotay reer binu Israa'iil soo wareegtay oo daba martay iyagii, markaasaa tiirkii daruurta ahaa ka soo hor wareegay oo uu daba maray iyagii;
Then the angel of God, who had been in front of the Israeli people, moved and went behind them. The tall bright cloud that had been in front of them also moved behind them,
20 oo wuxuu kala dhex galay reer Masar iyo reer binu Israa'iil; oo waxaa jiray daruur iyo gudcur, laakiinse weliba habeennimadii wuu iftiimay; oo habeenkii oo dhan midna uma soo dhowaan ka kale.
until it was between the Egyptian army and the Israeli people. The cloud caused the Egyptian army to be in the dark but it gave light for the Israelis. As a result, neither group could come near the other group during the whole night.
21 Markaasaa Muuse gacantii baddii ku kor fidiyey, oo habeenkii oo dhan Rabbigu wuxuu baddii dib ugu celiyey dabayl xoog badan oo bari ka timid, oo wuxuu baddii ka dhigay dhul engegan, oo biyihiina way kala go'een.
[That evening], Moses/I stretched out his/my hand toward the sea. Then Yahweh sent a strong wind from the east. It blew all night and pushed the water apart, and it caused the ground between the water to dry up.
22 Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil baddii dhex mareen, oo waxay ku socdeen dhul engegan, oo biyihiina waxay iyagii u ahaayeen derbi xagga midigta iyo xagga bidixdaba.
Then we Israeli people went on the dry land in the middle of the sea. The water was like a wall on each side of us, on the right side and on the left side.
23 Markaasaa Masriyiintiina soo eryadeen, oo intay soo daba galeen ayay waxay mareen badda dhexdeeda, oo waxayna ahaayeen Fircoon fardihiisii iyo gaadhifardoodkiisii, iyo fardooleydiisii oo dhan.
Then the Egyptian army pursued them, and went after them into the middle of the sea, with their horses and their chariots and the chariot-drivers.
24 Oo markii waagii beryay waxaa dhacday in Rabbigu ciidankii Masriyiinta ka dhex fiiriyey tiirkii dabka ahaa iyo kii daruurta ahaa, kolkaasuu kadeeday ciidankii Masriyiinta.
Just before dawn, Yahweh looked down from the fiery cloud, and then he caused the Egyptian army to panic.
25 Kolkaasuu giringirihii gaadhifardoodkooda xidhay, inay si dhib leh u kexeeyaan; markaasay Masriyiintii waxay yidhaahdeen, Reer binu Israa'iil hortooda aynu ka cararno; waayo, Rabbigu waa u dirirayaa iyaga oo uga hiilinayaa Masriyiinta.
He caused the wheels of the chariots to get stuck [in the mud], so that they could hardly move. So the Egyptians said, “Yahweh is fighting for the Israelis and against us; let’s get out of here!”
26 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Badda gacanta ku kor fidi, inay biyuhu ku soo noqdaan Masriyiinta, iyo gaadhifardoodkooda, iyo fardooleydooda.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Stretch out your arm toward the sea again. Then the water will come back on the Egyptians and on their chariots and their horsemen.”
27 Markaasaa Muuse gacantii badda ku kor fidiyey, oo markii waagii beryay ayaa baddii xooggeedii hore ku soo noqotay, markaasaa Masriyiintiina ka carareen; kolkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Masriyiintii ku tuuray badda dhexdeedii.
So Moses/I stretched out his/my arm, and as the sun was rising, the water returned to its normal level. The Egyptians tried to escape, but Yahweh hurled them back into the sea.
28 Markaasaa biyihii isku soo noqdeen, oo waxay qariyeen gaadhifardoodkii, iyo fardooleydii, iyo xataa ciidankii Fircoon oo dhan oo badda dhexdeeda reer binu Israa'iil ku eryaday, oo xataa midna kama hadhin.
The water returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen and the whole Egyptian army that had tried to follow us Israelis into the sea. Every one of the Egyptians drowned.
29 Laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku socdeen dhul engegan oo badda dhexdeeda ah, biyihiina waxay iyagii u ahaayeen derbi xagga midigta iyo xagga bidixdaba.
But we Israeli people had already crossed through the sea by walking on dry ground, with the water being [like two] walls, one on the right side and one on the left side.
30 Oo sidaasaa Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil uga badbaadiyey gacantii Masriyiinta; oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay arkeen Masriyiintii oo dhimatay oo badda xeebteeda taal.
That is the way Yahweh saved the Israeli people from the Egyptian army on that day. The Israeli people saw the Egyptians lying dead, [with their bodies washed up] on the shore.
31 Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay arkeen shuqulkii weynaa oo Rabbigu ku sameeyey Masriyiintii, kolkaasay dadkii Rabbiga ka cabsadeen, oo waxay rumaysteen Rabbiga iyo addoonkiisii Muuse.
The Israelis saw what Yahweh did to the Egyptians by his great power [MTY], and they were in awe of Yahweh. They trusted in Yahweh and they also trusted Moses/me.
