1 Oo dabadeedna Muuse iyo Haaruun waxay u tageen Fircoon, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Sii daa dadkaygu ha tageene, inay cidlada iigu ciidaan.
After this Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and told him, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says, ‘Let my people go so they can hold a religious festival for me in the desert.’”
2 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu yidhi, Waa ayo Rabbiga ay waajibka igu tahay inaan codkiisa maqlo oo aan reer binu Israa'iil sii daayo? Anigu garan maayo Rabbiga, oo weliba sii dayn maayo reer binu Israa'iil inay tagaan.
“Who is this ‘Lord’ that I should listen to his request to let Israel go?” Pharaoh replied. “I don't know the Lord and I certainly won't let Israel leave!”
3 Markaasay waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Ilaahii Cibraaniyada ayaa nala kulmay, haddaba waannu ku baryaynaaye, Na sii daa, aannu tagnee meel cidla ah oo saddex maalmood loo socdo oo aan allabari ugu bixinnee Rabbiga ah Ilaahayaga inuusan belaayo ama seef nagu soo dejin.
“The God of the Hebrews came to us,” they added. “Please allow us to go a three days journey into the desert and offer sacrifices to the Lord our God. Otherwise he'll kill us by disease or by the sword.”
4 Markaasaa boqorkii Masar wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Muuse iyo Haaruunow, maxaad dadka uga joojinaysaan shuqulladooda? Orda oo hawlihiinna culculus qabsada.
“Moses and Aaron, why are you trying to take people away from their assigned labor?” Pharaoh asked. “Get back to work!” he ordered.
5 Kolkaasaa Fircoon wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega, haatan dadka dalku waa badan yihiin, oo idinku waad ka nasiseen hawlahoodii cuscuslaa.
“Look here,” he went on. “There are many of your people here in our country and you are preventing them from doing their assigned labor.”
6 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu isla maalintaas ku amray kuwii dadka hawsha ku cadaadin jiray iyo saraakiishoodii, isagoo leh,
That very day he ordered the slave drivers and those in charge of the people:
7 Hadda dabadeed waa inaydnaan dadka siin caws ay leben ka sameeyaan sidii loo siin jiray, laakiinse iyagu ha tageen oo caws ha soo gurteen.
“Don't give them any more straw to make bricks like before. Have them go and collect the straw themselves.
8 Oo lebenkii ay markii hore samayn jireen tiradiisii oo kale waa inaad hadda ka dib ku qasabtaan inay sameeyaan, oo waa inaydnaan waxba ka dhimin, waayo, waa caajisiin oo sidaas daraaddeed waxay u qaylinayaan, iyagoo leh, Na sii daa aannu tagnee oo aan Ilaahayaga allabari u bixinnee.
But still make them produce the same quantity of bricks as before. They're lazy people—that's why they're calling out, asking, ‘Please let us go and offer sacrifices to our god.
9 Haddaba nimanka ha lagu qasbo hawl ka culus intii hore inay ku hawshoodaan, oo yaanay hadal been ah u jeedin.
Make their work harder so they can get on with it and not pay any attention to all these lies!”
10 Markaasay kuwii hawsha dadka ku cadaadin jiray iyo saraakiishoodiiba dibadda u bexeen, oo waxay la hadleen dadkii, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Waxaa Fircoon idin leeyahay, Caws idin siin maayo.
So the slave drivers and those in charge went out and told the people, “This is what Pharaoh has ordered: ‘I won't give you any more straw.
11 Idinku taga oo caws ka doonta meeshii aad ka heli kartaan, laakiin hawshiinna waxba laydinka dhimi maayo innaba.
Go and get straw for yourselves wherever you can find it, because your work quota won't be reduced.”
12 Sidaa daraaddeed ayaa dadku ku kala firdhay dalkii Masar oo dhan inay jirrido jajab ah soo ururiyaan meeshii cawska laga siin jiray.
So the people went all over Egypt collecting stubble for straw.
13 Oo kuwii dadka hawsha ku cadaadin jirayna way daddajiyeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Dhammeeya shuqulladiinna, iyo hawshiinna intii aad maalin walba samayn jirteen, sidii markii cawsku jiri jiray oo kale.
The slave drivers kept on forcing them, saying, “You still have to do the same work as you did when you had straw provided!”
14 Oo saraakiishii reer binu Israa'iil, oo Fircoon kuwiisa dadka hawsha ku cadaadiyaa ay dadka madaxda uga dhigeen, waa la garaacay, oo waxaa lagu yidhi, War maxaad shalay iyo maantaba hawshiinna u dhammayn weydeen oo aad lebenkii ugu samayn weydeen sidii hore?
They beat the Israelite supervisors they had put in charge, shouting at them, “Why haven't you met your quota of bricks as you did before?”
15 Markaasay saraakiishii reer binu Israa'iil waxay u tageen oo u cataabeen Fircoon, waxayna ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaad addoommadaada sidan ugula macaamilootaa?
The Israelite supervisors went to Pharaoh to complain, saying, “Why are you treating us your servants like this?
16 Addoommadaada caws lama siiyo, oo waxay nagu yidhaahdaan, Leben sameeya. Oo bal eeg, addoommadaadii waa la garaacaa, laakiinse gardarrada waxaa iska leh dadkaaga.
You don't give us any straw but your slave drivers demand that we make bricks, and they beat us! Your people are treating us badly!”
17 Laakiinse wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Caajisiin baad tihiin, caajisiin baad tihiin, oo sidaas daraaddeed baad u leedihiin, Aannu tagno oo aan Rabbiga allabari u bixinno.
“No, you're just lazy, lazy people!” Pharaoh replied. “That's why you keep on asking, ‘Please let us go and offer sacrifices to the Lord.’
18 Haddaba taga oo shaqeeya, waayo, caws laydin siin maayo, oo weliba waa inaad keentaan tiradii lebenkii oo kale.
Now get out of here and go back to work! You won't be given any straw but you'll still have to produce the full quota of bricks!”
19 Oo saraakiishii reer binu Israa'iil waxay arkeen in xaalkoodii xun yahay, markii lagu yidhi, Waa inaydnaan waxba dhimin lebenkii aad maalin walba samayn jirteen.
The Israelite supervisors realized they were in trouble when they were told, “You must not reduce the daily production of bricks.”
20 Oo markay Fircoon ka soo bexeen waxay ka hor yimaadeen Muuse iyo Haaruun oo jidka taagtaagan,
They went over to Moses and Aaron who were waiting for them after their meeting with Pharaoh,
21 oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbigu ha idin fiiriyo oo ha idin xukumo, waayo, waxaad naga dhigteen wax u ura Fircoon iyo addoommadiisii si ay noo nacaan oo ay intay seefo noo qaataan noo laayaan.
and said, “May the Lord see what you have done and judge you accordingly! You have made us like a bad smell to Pharaoh and his officials. You have put a sword in their hands to kill us!”
22 Markaasaa Muuse mar kale Rabbiga u jeestay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, maxaad dadkan si xun ugula macaamilootay? Oo maxaad aniga ii soo dirtay?
Moses went back to the Lord and complained, “Why have you caused all this trouble for your own people, Lord? Was this why you sent me?
23 Ilaa markii aan u imid Fircoon oo aan magacaaga kula hadlay isaga, wax xun buu dadkan ku sameeyey, oo adna dadkaaga kama aad samatabbixin innaba.
Ever since I went to Pharaoh to speak for you, he has been even harder on your people, and you haven't done anything to save them!”
