Exodo 2
1 At isang lalake sa lipi ni Levi ay yumaon, at nagasawa sa isang anak na babae ng lipi ni Levi.
A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
2 At ang babae ay naglihi, at nanganak ng isang lalake: at nang kaniyang makita na maganda, ay kaniyang itinagong tatlong buwan.
The woman conceived and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
3 At nang hindi na niya maitatagong malaon ay ikinuha niya ng isang takbang yantok, at pinahiran niya ng betun at ng sahing; at kaniyang isinilid ang bata roon, at inilagay sa katalahiban sa tabi ng ilog.
When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.
4 At tumayo sa malayo ang kaniyang kapatid na babae, upang maalaman ang mangyayari sa bata.
His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
5 At ang anak na babae ni Faraon ay lumusong upang maligo sa ilog; at nagsipaglakad ang kaniyang mga abay sa tabi ng ilog; at kaniyang nakita ang takba sa katalahiban, at ipinakuha sa kaniyang abay.
Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her servant to get it.
6 At kaniyang binuksan, at nakita niya ang bata: at narito, ang sanggol ay umiyak. At kaniyang kinaawaan at sinabi, Ito'y isa sa mga anak ng mga Hebreo.
She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
7 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng kaniyang kapatid na babae sa anak ni Faraon, Yayaon ba ako at itatawag kita ng isang sisiwa sa mga babaing Hebrea, na makapagalaga sa iyo ng batang ito?
Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?”
8 At sinabi sa kaniya ng anak ni Faraon, Yumaon ka. At ang dalaga ay yumaon, at tinawag ang ina ng bata.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” The young woman went and called the child’s mother.
9 At sinabi ng anak ni Faraon, sa kaniya, Dalhin mo ang batang ito, at alagaan mo sa akin, at bibigyan kita ng iyong kaupahan. At kinuha ng babae ang bata, at inalagaan.
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” The woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 At ang bata ay lumaki, at kaniyang dinala sa anak ni Faraon, at siya'y kaniyang inaring anak. At kaniyang pinanganlang Moises, at sinabi, Sapagka't aking sinagip siya sa tubig.
The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
11 At nangyari nang mga araw na yaon, ng malaki na si Moises, na kaniyang nilabas ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at minasdan ang atang sa kanila: at kaniyang nakita ang isang Egipcio, na nananakit ng isang Hebreo, na isa sa kaniyang mga kapatid.
In those days, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his brothers and saw their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
12 At siya'y nagmasid sa magkabikabilang dako, at nang siya'y walang makitang tao, ay kaniyang pinatay ang Egipcio at kaniyang tinabunan sa buhanginan.
He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 At siya'y lumabas ng ikalawang araw, at, narito, na may dalawang lalaking Hebreo, na nagbababag: at kaniyang sinabi roon sa umaapi, Bakit mo sinasaktan ang iyong kasama?
He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?”
14 At sinabi niya, Sinong naglagay sa iyong pangulo at hukom sa amin? Iniisip mo bang patayin ako, na gaya ng pagpatay mo sa Egipcio? At natakot si Moises, at nagsabi, Tunay na ang bagay na yaon ay nahayag.
He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” Moses was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.”
15 Nang mabalitaan nga ni Faraon ang bagay na ito, ay minithi niyang patayin si Moises. Datapuwa't si Moises ay tumakas sa harapan ni Faraon, at tumahan sa lupain ng Madian: at siya'y umupo sa tabi ng isang balon.
Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
16 Ang saserdote nga sa Madian ay may pitong anak na babae: at sila'y naparoon at umigib ng tubig, at kanilang pinuno ang mga inuman upang painumin ang kawan ng kanilang ama.
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 At ang mga pastor ay dumating, at sila'y pinalayas: datapuwa't si Moises ay tumayo, at sila'y tinulungan, at pinainom ang kanilang kawan.
The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 At nang sila'y dumating kay Raquel na kanilang ama, ay sinabi niya, Bakit kayo tumindig na madali ngayon?
When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?”
19 At kanilang sinabi, Ipinagsanggalang kami ng isang Egipcio sa kamay ng mga pastor, at saka iniigib pa niya kami ng tubig, at pinainom ang kawan.
They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.”
20 At kaniyang sinabi sa mga anak niya, At saan naroon siya? bakit ninyo iniwan ang lalaking yaon? tawagin ninyo siya upang makakain ng tinapay.
He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.”
21 At si Moises ay natuwa na makisuno sa lalaking yaon: at kaniyang pinapag-asawa kay Moises si Zephora na kaniyang anak.
Moses was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses Zipporah, his daughter.
22 At nanganak ng isang lalake, at kaniyang pinanganlan ng Gersom; sapagka't kaniyang sinabi, Ako'y nakipamayan sa ibang bayan.
She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.”
23 At nangyari pagkaraan ng maraming araw na ang hari sa Egipto ay namatay; at ang mga anak ni Israel ay nagbuntong hininga dahil sa pagkaalipin, at sila'y dumaing at ang kanilang daing ay umabot sa Dios dahil sa pagkaalipin.
In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
24 At dininig ng Dios ang kanilang hibik, at naalaala ng Dios ang kaniyang tipan kay Abraham, kay Isaac, at kay Jacob,
God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 At nilingap ng Dios ang mga anak ni Israel, at sila'y kinilala ng Dios.
God saw the children of Israel, and God understood.
