Baxniintii 3
1 Muuse wuxuu ilaalinayay adhigii soddoggiis Yetroo oo ahaa wadaadkii Midyaan, oo wuxuu adhigii u soo kexeeyey meeshii cidlada ahayd shishadeeda, markaasuu wuxuu yimid buurtii Ilaah oo ahayd Xoreeb.
Moses/I was taking care of the sheep that belonged to his/my father-in-law Jethro, the priest of the Midian [people]. He/I led the flock across the desert and came to Horeb, [the mountain that was later called Sinai], the (mountain that [had been dedicated to] God/taboo mountain).
2 Markaasaa malaa'igtii Rabbigu waxay uga muuqatay dab ololaya oo ka baxaya geed dhexdiis, kolkaasuu fiiriyey oo wuxuu arkay geedkii oo ololaya oo dabku gubayo, geedkuna ma basayn.
[One day] Yahweh (appeared/revealed himself) to him/me, [looking like] an angel. The angel appeared in a flame of fire in the middle of a bush [that was burning]. Moses/I looked at it, and he/I was surprised that the bush was burning, but it was not burning up.
3 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu yidhi, Anigu waan ku leexan doonaa, waanan arki doonaa muuqashadan weyn, iyo waxa geedku u guban waayay.
Moses/I thought, “I will go closer and try to see this strange sight! Why is the bush not burning up?”
4 Oo markuu Rabbigu arkay inuu ku soo leexday inuu arko ayaa Ilaah uga yeedhay geedka dhexdiisii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Muusow, Muusow. Markaasuu yidhi, Waa i kan.
When Yahweh saw that he/I had come closer, he called to Moses/me from the middle of the bush, saying, “Moses! Moses!” He/I replied, “[Yes], here I am.”
5 Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Halkan ha u soo dhowaan, kabahana iska siib, waayo, meesha aad taagan tahay waa dhul quduus ah.
Yahweh said, “Do not come closer! [Because I am God], the ground on which you are standing is holy/taboo. So take off your sandals [to show respect to me].”
6 Oo weliba wuxuu kaloo ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay Ilaahii aabbahaa oo ah Ilaahii Ibraahim, iyo Ilaahii Isxaaq, iyo Ilaahii Yacquub. Markaasaa Muuse wejigiisii qariyey, waayo, wuxuu ka cabsaday inuu Ilaah eego.
Then he said, “I am God, whom your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob [worshiped].” So Moses/I covered his/my face, because he/I was afraid [that God would kill him/me] if he/I looked at him.
7 Rabbiguna wuxuu ku yidhi, Hubaal waxaan arkay dhibaatada dadkayga ku haysata Masar, oo waan maqlay oohintii ay ooyeen kuwa hawsha ku qaxraya aawadood, waayo, anigu waan ogahay caloolxumadooda;
Then Yahweh said, “I have seen how cruelly [they are treating] my people in Egypt. I have heard them (wailing/crying out) [for help] because of what the slave-drivers [are forcing them to do]. I know how my people are suffering.
8 oo waxaan u imid inaan ka samatabbixiyo gacanta Masriyiinta, iyo inaan ka soo bixiyo dhulkaas, oo keeno dhul wanaagsan oo ballaadhan, oo ah dal caano iyo malab la barwaaqaysan; waana meesha ay deggan yihiin reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus.
So I have come down [from heaven] to rescue them from the Egyptians [SYN]. I have come to bring them up from that land [to the highlands in Canaan]. I will bring them to a land that is good/fertile and that has plenty of space. It will be very good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY]. It is the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus [live].
9 Oo haatan bal eeg, waxaa i hor timid oohintii reer binu Israa'iil, oo weliba waxaan arkay cadaadinta ay Masriyiintu ku cadaadinayaan iyaga.
Truly I have now heard my Israeli people crying [PRS]. I have seen how the Egyptians oppress them.
10 Haddaba kaalay, oo waxaan kuu dirayaa Fircoon, inaad dalka Masar ka soo kaxaysid dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil ah.
So you go [back] to Egypt. I am sending you to the king, in order that [he may permit] you to bring my people, the Israeli people, out of Egypt.”
11 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Bal yaan ahay anigu, markaan Fircoon u tegayo, oo aan reer binu Israa'iil ka soo bixinayo dalka Masar?
But Moses/I replied, “I am not a well-known person [RHQ]! (I cannot go to the king and [ask him to permit me] to bring the Israeli people out of Egypt!/How can I go to the king and [ask him to allow me to] bring the Israeli people out of Egypt?)” [RHQ]
12 Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Xaqiiqa anigaa kula jiraya, oo taasaa calaamo kuu noqonaysa, inaan anigu ku soo diray; markii aad dadka ka soo bixiso Masar, Ilaah baad buurtan ugu adeegi doontaan.
God replied, “I will be with you. And when you bring [my] people out of Egypt, all of you will worship me [right] here on this mountain. That will prove that I am the one who sent you [to them].”
13 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Bal eeg, markii aan u tago reer binu Israa'iil, oo aan ku idhaahdo iyaga, Ilaahii awowayaashiin baa ii soo kiin diray, oo iyaga waxay igu odhan doonaan, De magiciisa maxaa la yidhaahdaa? Haddaba maxaan ku odhan doonaa?
Moses/I said to God, “If I go to the Israeli people and say to them, ‘God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’, what shall I say to them?”
14 Markaasaa Ilaah wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, ANIGU WAXAAN AHAY KAAN AHAY; oo weliba wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaad ku odhan doontaa reer binu Israa'iil, WAAN AHAY baa ii soo kiin diray.
God replied, “I AM who I AM.” And he said, “Tell the Israeli people that the one who is [named] ‘I AM’ has sent me to you.”
15 Oo Ilaah weliba wuxuu kaloo Muuse ku yidhi, Waxaad ku tidhaahdaa reer binu Israa'iil, Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashiin, oo ah Ilaahii Ibraahim, iyo Ilaahii Isxaaq, iyo Ilaahii Yacquub ayaa ii soo kiin diray; kanu waa magacayga weligay, oo laygu xusuusto ka ab ka ab.
God also said to Moses/me, “Say this to the Israeli people: ‘Yahweh God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], the one that Abraham and Isaac and Jacob [worshiped], has sent me to you.’ This name, [Yahweh], will be my name forever. That is the name that [people in] all future generations [must use when they talk about/to] me.
16 Bal tag, oo isu soo ururi waayeellada reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashiin, oo ah Ilaahii Ibraahim, iyo Ilaahii Isxaaq, iyo Ilaahii Yacquub ayaa ii muuqday, isagoo leh, Hubaal waan idin soo booqday, oo waan arkay waxa laydinku sameeyey Masar dhexdeeda,
Go [to Egypt] and gather together the elders/leaders of the Israeli people, and say to them, ‘Yahweh God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], the one Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob [worshiped], appeared to me. He said to him/me, “I have been watching closely what the Egyptian people have done to you.
17 oo waxaan idhi, Anigu waan idinka soo wadi doonaa dhibaatada Masar, oo waxaan idin keeni doonaa dalka reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus, oo ah dal caano iyo malab la barwaaqaysan.
I promise that I will rescue you from being oppressed in Egypt, and [I will take you] to the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus [live]. It is a land good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY].”’
18 Oo codkaaga way maqli doonaan, markaas adiga iyo waayeellada reer binu Israa'iil waa inaad u tagtaan boqorka Masar, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha Cibraaniyada ayaa nala kulmay. Haddaba waan ku baryaynaaye, Iska kaaya daa aannu meel saddex maalmood loo socdo oo cidla ah tagnee, inaannu allabari u bixinno Rabbiga ah Ilaahayo.
My people will do what you say. Then you and their leaders must go to the king of Egypt, and you must say to him, ‘Yahweh, who is God, the one we Hebrews [worship], has revealed himself to us. So now we ask you to allow us to travel for three days to [a place in] the desert, in order that there we may offer sacrifices to Yahweh, our God.’
19 Oo anna waxaan ogahay inaanu boqorka Masar idiin sii daynayn inaad tagtaan, maya, ee wuxuuna idiinku diidayaa gacan xoog leh.
But I know that the king of Egypt will allow you to go only if he realizes I am [more] powerful [MTY] [than he is].
20 Markaasaan gacantayda soo kala bixin doonaa, oo waxaan Masar ku layn doonaa cajaa'ibyadayda oo dhan oo aan ku dhex samayn doono iyada, oo markaas dabadeed wuu idin sii dayn doonaa inaad iska tagtaan.
So I will use my power [MTY] to strike/punish [the people of] Egypt [MTY] by performing many miracles there. Then he will allow you to leave.
21 Oo anigu dadkan raalli baan uga yeeli doonaa Masriyiinta; oo waxay noqon doontaa in markii aad tagtaan aydnaan faromadhnaan ku tegin,
[When that happens], I will cause the people of Egypt to respect you. [The result will be that] when you leave Egypt, (you will not go empty-handed/they will give you many [valuable] things to take with you).
22 laakiinse naag waluba ha weyddiisato deriskeeda iyo tan guriga la joogta alaab lacag ah iyo alaab dahab ah, iyo dhar; waxaadna saari doontaan wiilashiinna iyo gabdhihiinna, oo waxaad dhici doontaan Masriyiinta.
[At that time], each [Israeli] woman will ask her [Egyptian] neighbors and each [Egyptian] woman who is living in her (OR, her neighbor’s) house to [give her] some silver and gold jewelry and some [nice] clothes. [Each Egyptian woman will give them some], and you will put them on your sons and daughters [to take with you]. In that way you will (take away/confiscate) the wealth of the Egyptian people.”
