1 Markaasaa Muuse jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Laakiinse, bal ogow, ima ay rumaysan doonaan, codkaygana ma ay dhegaysan doonaan, waayo, waxay igu odhan doonaan, Rabbigu kuuma uu muuqanin.
“But what if they don't believe me or listen to what I say?” Moses asked. “They could say, ‘The Lord didn't appear to you.’”
2 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa maxay waxaas gacantaada ku jiraa? Oo wuxuu yidhi, Waa ul.
The Lord asked him, “What are you holding in your hand?” “A walking stick,” Moses replied.
3 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Bal dhulka ku tuur. Markaasuu dhulka ku tuuray, oo waxay noqotay abeeso. Kolkaasaa Muuse ka hor cararay.
“Throw it on the ground,” he told Moses. So Moses did. It turned into a snake and Moses ran away from it.
4 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Bal gacanta soo fidi oo dabada ku dheg, kolkaasuu gacantii soo fidiyey oo dabada ku dhegay, kolkaasay noqotay ul gacantiisa ku jirta.
“Reach out and grab hold of it by its tail,” the Lord told Moses. Moses did so and it turned back into a walking stick in his hand.
5 Sidaas yeel inay ku rumaystaan inuu kuu muuqday Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashood, oo ah Ilaahii Ibraahim, iyo Ilaahii Isxaaq, iyo Ilaahii Yacquub.
“You are to do this so that they will believe that I the Lord did appear to you, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
6 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu kaloo ku sii yidhi isagii, Bal gacanta laabta saar, markaasuu gacanta laabta saaray, oo markii uu ka qaaday, bal eeg, gacantii baras bay yeelatay oo waxay u caddaatay sida baraf cad.
Then the Lord told him, “Put your hand inside your clothes close to your chest.” So Moses did as he was told. When he took his hand out, it was white like snow with a skin disease.
7 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Bal gacanta laabta mar kale saar. Kolkaasuu mar kale gacantii laabta saaray, oo markii uu ka qaaday laabtii, bal eeg, waxay haddana u rogmatay oo u ekaatay sida jidhkiisii kale.
“Now put your hand back inside your clothes,” the Lord said. Moses did so. When he took it out again, his hand had returned to normal.
8 Oo waxay noqon doontaa, hadday kugu rumaysan waayaan oo ay calaamada hore codkeeda maqli waayaan, de markaas calaamada dambe codkeeday rumaysan doonaan.
“If they don't believe you and they're not convinced by the first sign, they'll believe because of the second sign,” the Lord explained.
9 Oo haddana waxay noqon doontaa, hadday rumaysan waayaan labadan calaamo, oo weliba ay codkaaga maqli waayaan, de markaas bal waa inaad webiga biyo ka qaaddid oo aad dhulka engegan ku shubtid, oo biyihii aad webiga ka qaadday, markay gaadhaan dhulka engegan dhiig bay noqon doonaan.
“But if they still don't believe you or listen to you because of these two signs, then you are to take some water from the Nile and pout it out on the ground. The Nile water will turn into blood on the ground.”
10 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Rabbiga ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, anigu codkar ma ahi, hadda iyo hore toona, iyo tan iyo markaad ila hadashay anigoo addoonkaaga ah, maxaa yeelay, anigu hadalka waan shigaa, waanan carrab la'ahay.
Then Moses said to the Lord, “Pleased excuse me, but I'm not someone who is good with words—not in the past, and not from the time you have been speaking with me, your servant. My speech is slow and I don't say things well.”
11 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Kan dadka afkiisa sameeyey waa ayo? Yaase dadka carrab tira, ama dhego tira, ama wax tusa, ama indho tira? Sow anigan Rabbiga ah ma aha?
“Who gave people mouths?” the Lord asked him. “Who makes people deaf or dumb, able to see or blind? It's I, the Lord, who does that.
12 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed tag, oo anigaa afkaaga la jiri doona oo ku bari doona wixii aad ku hadli lahayd.
Now go, and I myself will be your mouth, and I will tell you what you are to say.”
13 Isna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Waan ku baryayaaye, dir kaad doonaysid inaad dirtid.
“Please, Lord, send someone else!” Moses responded.
14 Markaasaa Rabbigu u cadhooday Muuse, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Sow ma joogo walaalkaa Haaruun oo ah reer Laawi? Waan ogahay inuu isagu si wanaagsan u hadli karo. Oo bal ogow, wuu u soo socdaa inuu kula kulmo, oo markuu ku arko, qalbigiisuu ka farxi doonaa.
The Lord got angry with Moses, and told him, “There's your brother Aaron, the Levite. I know he speaks well. He's on his way to meet you, and he'll be very happy to see you.
15 Haddaba waa inaad isaga la hadashaa, oo aad erayada afkiisa ku riddaa, oo anigu afkaagaan la jiri doonaa, iyo afkiisaba, oo waxaan idin barayaa wixii aad samayn lahaydeen.
Speak to him and tell him what to say. I will be your mouth and his mouth, and I will tell you what you are to do.
16 Oo isagu wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa ninka dadka kuula hadla, oo waxay noqon doontaa inuu isagu af kuu noqdo, adna waxaad isaga u noqon doontaa Ilaah oo kale.
Aaron will speak on your behalf to the people, as if he was your mouth, and you will be in the place of God to him.
17 Haddaba waa inaad gacanta ku qaadatid ushan aad cajaa'ibyada ku samayn doontid.
Make sure to take your walking stick with you so you can use it to do the signs.”
18 Markaasaa Muuse tegey oo wuxuu ku noqday soddoggiis Yetroo, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, Bal i sii daa aan tagee, oo ku noqdo walaalahayga Masar jooga, oo aan soo arkee bal inay nool yihiin iyo in kale. Markaasaa Yetroo wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Nabad ku tag.
Then Moses returned to Jethro his father-in-law and told him, “Please allow me to go back to my own people in Egypt so I can see if any of them are still alive.” “Go with my blessing,” Jethro replied.
19 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi Muuse, isagoo Midyaan jooga, Tag, oo Masar ku noqo, waayo, dadkii doondoonayay inay nafta kaa qaadaan way wada dhinteen.
While Moses was in Midian, the Lord told him, “Go back to Egypt because all those who wanted to kill you have died.”
20 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu watay naagtiisii iyo wiilashiisii, oo wuxuu saartay dameer, wuxuuna ku noqday dalkii Masar. Markaasaa Muuse ushii Ilaah gacanta ku qaatay.
Moses put his wife and sons on a donkey and went back to Egypt, carrying the walking stick that God had used to perform miracles.
21 Rabbiguna wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Markii aad Masar ku noqotid, cajaa'ibyadii aan gacantaada ku riday oo dhan Fircoon hortiisa ku samee, laakiinse anigu qalbigiisaan qallafin doonaa, oo dadka ma uu sii dayn doono inay tagaan.
The Lord told Moses, “When you get back to Egypt, make sure to go to Pharaoh and carry out the miracles I've given you to do. I will make him stubborn and he will not let the people go.
22 Oo waxaad Fircoon ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Israa'iil waa wiilkayga curadka ah,
This is what you are to tell Pharaoh, ‘This is what the Lord says. Israel is my firstborn son.
23 oo waxaan adiga kugu idhi, Wiilkayga sii daa, ha tagee oo ha ii adeegee. Adiguse waad u diiday inuu tago. Bal hadda ogow, waxaan dili doonaa wiilkaaga curadka ah.
I ordered you to let my son go so he can worship me. But you refused to release him, so I will now kill your firstborn son.”
24 Intay jidka sii socdeen meel bay ku habeen dhexeen, Rabbi baana ugu yimid, oo wuxuu damcay inuu dilo isaga.
But while they were on their way the Lord came to the place where they were staying, wanting to kill Moses.
25 Markaasaa Siforaah waxay qaadatay dhagax af leh, oo wiilkeedii buuryadiisii bay ku gooysay, oo waxay ku ag tuurtay cagihiisa oo tidhi, Hubaal waxaad ii tahay arooskii dhiigga.
However, Zipporah used a flint knife to cut off her son's foreskin. She touched his feet with it, and said to him, “You are a blood-husband to me.”
26 Markaasuu iska daayay isagii. Kolkaasay tidhi, Waxaad ii tahay arooskii dhiigga gudniinta aawadeed.
(Calling him a blood-husband referred to circumcision.) After this the Lord left Moses alone.
27 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Haaruun ku yidhi, Tag inaad Muuse kaga hor tagtid cidlada dhexdeeda. Markaasuu tegey, oo wuxuu kaga hor tegey buurta Ilaah, kolkaasuu dhunkaday.
The Lord had told Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the desert.” So Aaron went and met Moses at the mountain of God and greeted him with a kiss.
28 Kolkaasaa Muuse wuxuu Haaruun u sheegay erayadii Rabbigu u soo faray oo dhan, iyo calaamooyinkii uu ku amray oo dhan.
Then Moses explained to Aaron everything the Lord had sent him to say and all the miracles he had ordered him to do.
29 Markaasaa Muuse iyo Haaruun tageen oo waxay isu soo ururiyeen waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
Moses and Aaron traveled to Egypt. There they had all the Israelite elders gather together.
30 Markaasaa Haaruun kula hadlay erayadii Rabbigu Muuse u soo faray oo dhan, calaamooyinkiina dadka hortiisuu ku sameeyey.
Aaron shared with them everything the Lord had told Moses, and Moses carried out the miracles so they could see them.
31 Dadkiina way rumaysteen, oo markay maqleen inuu Rabbigu soo booqday reer binu Israa'iil iyo inuu arkay dhibaatadooda ayay madaxa hoos u foorariyeen oo caabudeen.
The Israelites were convinced. When they heard that the Lord had come to them, and that he had been touched by their suffering, they bowed their heads and worshiped.
