1 Markaasaa waxaa tegey nin reer Laawi ah, oo wuxuu guursaday gabadh reer Laawi iyana ah.
After this there went a man of the house of Levi; and took a wife of his own kindred.
2 Markaasay naagtii uuraysatay oo waxay dhashay wiil; oo markay aragtay inuu ilmo wanaagsan yahay, ayay qarisay in saddex bilood ah.
And she conceived, and bore a son; and seeing him a goodly child hid him three months.
3 Oo markay in dambe qarin kari weyday, ayay waxay soo qaadday abxad caws duur ah, oo intay dhoobo iyo daamur ku malaastay ayay wiilkii ku ridday, oo waxay dhex gelisay duur webiga qarkiisa ka baxay.
And when she could hide him no longer, she took a basket made of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and pitch: and put the little babe therein, and laid him in the sedges by the river’s brink,
4 Walaashiisna waxay taagnayd meel ka fog, inay ogaato waxa isaga lagu samayn doono.
His sister standing afar off, and taking notice what would be done.
5 Markaasaa gabadhii Fircoon webiga timid inay ku maydhato. Gabdhihii addoommada u ahaana waxay socdeen webigii dhinaciisa. Markaasay iyadu waxay aragtay abxadda duurka ku dhex jirta, oo waxay u diratay gabadhii addoonta u ahayd inay u keento.
And behold the daughter of Pharao came down to wash herself in the river: and her maids walked by the river’s brink. And when she saw the basket in the sedges, she sent one of her maids for it: and when it was brought,
6 Markaasay furtay, oo waxay aragtay wiilkii; oo bal eeg, yarkii waa ooyay. Kolkaasay u naxariisatay, oo waxay tidhi, Kanu waa carruurtii Cibraaniyada midkood.
She opened it and seeing within it an infant crying, having compassion on it she said: This is one of the babes of the Hebrews.
7 Markaasaa walaashiis waxay gabadhii Fircoon ku tidhi, Ma kuugu yeedhaa naagaha Cibraaniyadaha middood inay kuu nuujiso ilmaha?
And the child’s sister said to her Shall I go and call to thee a Hebrew woman, to nurse the babe?
8 Gabadhii Fircoonna waxay ku tidhi iyadii, Haah, tag. Gabadhiina way tagtay oo waxay u yeedhay yarkii hooyadiis.
She answered: Go. The maid went and called her mother.
9 Markaasaa gabadhii Fircoon waxay ku tidhi iyadii, Tag, oo ilmahan qaad oo ii nuuji, oo anna waxaan ku siin doonaa mushahaaradaada. Markaasay naagtii yarkii qaadday oo nuujisay.
And Pharao’s daughter said to her. Take this child and nurse him for me: I will give thee thy wages. The woman took, and nursed the child: and when he was grown up, she delivered him to Pharao’s daughter.
10 Yarkiina waa koray, markaasay u keentay gabadhii Fircoon, oo wuxuu noqday wiilkeedii. Oo waxay magiciisii u bixisay Muuse, oo waxay tidhi, Maxaa yeelay, anaa biyihii ka soo bixiyey.
And she adopted him for a son, and called him Moses, saying: Because I took him out of the water.
11 Oo waayahaas, markii Muuse weynaaday, waxay noqotay inuu walaalihiis u soo baxay, oo uu fiiriyey culaabta saaran. Markaasuu wuxuu arkay mid Masri ah oo dilaya mid Cibraani ah oo walaalihiis ka mid ah.
In those days after Moses was grown up, he went out to his brethren: and saw their affliction, and an Egyptian striking one of the Hebrews his brethren.
12 Markaasuu iska fiiriyey xagga iyo xagga, oo markuu arkay inaan ciduna joogin ayuu Masrigii kaw kaga siiyey, oo ciidda ku qariyey.
And when he had looked about this way and that way, and saw no one there, he slew the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
13 Markaasuu haddana maalintii labaad soo baxay, oo wuxuu arkay laba nin oo Cibraaniyo ah oo isla diriraya; oo kii gardarnaa buu wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaad u dilaysaa wadaygaa?
And going out the next day, he saw two Hebrews quarrelling: and he said to him that did the wrong: Why strikest thou thy neighbour?
14 Markaasuu wuxuu yidhi, Bal yaa amiir iyo xaakin nooga kaa dhigay? Ma waxaad doonaysaa inaad ii disho sidaad u dishay Masriga? Markaasaa Muuse cabsaday, oo wuxuu isyidhi, Hubaal wixii waa la ogaaday.
But he answered: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us? Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst yesterday kill the Egyptian? Moses feared, and said: How is this come to be known?
15 Haddaba markii Fircoon waxaas maqlay, ayuu wuxuu doondoonay inuu Muuse nafta ka qaado. Laakiinse Muuse waa ka cararay Fircoon hortiisii, oo wuxuu degay dalka Midyaan, oo ceel buu ag fadhiistay.
And Pharao heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian, and he sat down by a well.
16 Haddaba wadaadkii Midyaan wuxuu lahaa toddoba gabdhood. Intay ceelkii yimaadeen ayay dhaamiyeen oo berkedihii biyo ka buuxiyeen inay waraabiyaan idihii aabbahood.
And the priest of Madian had seven daughters, who came to draw water: and when the troughs were filled, desired to water their father’s flocks.
17 Markaasaa adhijirro yimaadeen oo ka eryeen, laakiinse Muuse intuu istaagay, ayuu caawiyey iyagii, oo idahoodii u waraabiyey.
And the shepherds came and drove them away: and Moses arose, and defending the maids, watered their sheep.
18 Oo markay u yimaadeen Recuu'eel oo aabbahood ah ayuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa sidee, maanta waad soo dhaqsateene?
And when they returned to Raguel their father, he said to them: Why are ye come sooner than usual?
19 Markaasay waxay yidhaahdeen, Midkoo Masri ah ayaa naga samatabbixiyey gacantii adhijirrada, oo weliba biyuu noo dhaamiyey oo idaha isagaa noo waraabiyey.
They answered: A man of Egypt delivered us from the hands of the shepherds: and he drew water also with us, and gave the sheep to drink.
20 Markaasuu wuxuu gabdhihiisii ku yidhi, Isagii meeyey? De maxaad ninkii uga soo kacdeen? U yeedha, kibis ha cunee.
But he said: Where is he? why have you let the man go? call him that he may eat bread.
21 Muusena raalli buu ka ahaa inuu ninkaas la joogo, oo isagu wuxuu Muuse siiyey gabadhiisii Siforaah.
And Moses swore that he would dwell with him. And he took Sephora his daughter to wife:
22 Oo waxay u dhashay wiil, markaasuu magiciisii wuxuu u bixiyey Gershoom, waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Qariib baan ku ahaa dal qalaad.
And she bore him a son, whom he called Gersam, saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country. And she bore another, whom he called Eliezer, saying: For the God of my father, my helper hath delivered me out of the hand of Pharao.
23 Oo waxay noqotay in waayahaas badan dabadeed uu boqorkii Masar iska dhintay, reer binu Israa'iilna addoonnimada aawadeed ayay ula taaheen, oo way ooyeen, oo oohintoodiina waxay gaadhay Ilaah addoonnimada aawadeed.
Now after a long time the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works.
24 Ilaahna waa maqlay cabaadkoodii, markaasaa Ilaah xusuustay axdigiisii uu la dhigtay Ibraahim, iyo Isxaaq, iyo Yacquub.
And he heard their groaning, and remembered the covenant which he made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
25 Markaasaa Ilaah arkay reer binu Israa'iil, Ilaahna wuu ogaaday xaalkoodii.
And the Lord looked upon the children of Israel, and he knew them.
