¹Haddaba waa kuwan magacyadii wiilashii Israa'iil, oo Masar yimid; nin walba iyo reerkiisiiba waxay la yimaadeen Yacquub.

¹Now these are the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt (every man and his household came with Jacob):

²Ruubeen, Simecoon, Laawi iyo Yahuudah,

²Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

³Isaakaar, Sebulun, iyo Benyaamiin,

³Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

⁴Daan iyo Naftaali, iyo Gaad iyo Aasheer.

⁴Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

⁵Oo dadkii ka soo go'ay xanjaadkii Yacquub oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen toddobaatan qof; Yuusufna Masar buu markii hore joogay.

⁵All the souls who came out of Jacob’s body were seventy souls, and Joseph was in Egypt already.

⁶Yuusufna, iyo walaalihiis, iyo farcankaas oo dhanba way wada dhinteen.

⁶Joseph died, as did all his brothers, and all that generation.

⁷Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa bateen, oo aad bay u kordheen, wayna tarmeen, oo aad iyo aad u xoogaysteen; dhulkiina way buuxiyeen.

⁷The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

⁸Haddaba Masar waxaa ka kacay boqor cusub oo aan Yuusuf aqoonin.

⁸Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph.

⁹Markaasuu wuxuu dadkiisii ku yidhi, Bal eega, dadkii reer binu Israa'iil waa inaga badan yihiin, wayna inaga xoog weyn yihiin.

⁹He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.

¹⁰Kaalaya, aynu si caqli ah ula macaamiloonnee; waaba intaasoo ay tarmaan, oo ay markuu dagaal dhaco cadaawayaasheenna inoogu darmadaan, oo intay inala diriraan ay dalka ka baxaane.

¹⁰Come, let us deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies, and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”

¹¹Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ayay niman madax uga dhigeen si ay culaabtooda ugu dhibaan, oo waxay Fircoon u dhiseen magaalooyin wax lagu kaydiyo oo la yidhaahdo Fitom iyo Racmeses.

¹¹Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.

¹²Laakiinse in kastoo ay aad u dhibeen, haddana aad bay u sii tarmeen, oo aad bay u faafeen. Oo reer binu Israa'iil aawadood ayay la murugaysnaayeen.

¹²But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They were grieved because of the children of Israel.

¹³Oo Masriyiintiina waxay reer binu Israa'iil ku qasbeen inay qaxar ku adeegaan,

¹³The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,

¹⁴oo waxay naftoodii ku dhibeen hawl aad u adag, oo ahayd dhoobo la qaso, iyo leben, iyo hawl kasta oo beeraha laga qabto, oo hawl kastoo ay ku qasbeen inay qabtaanba way ku qaxri jireen.

¹⁴and they made their lives bitter with hard service, in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve.

¹⁵Markaasaa boqorkii Masar wuxuu la hadlay umulisooyinkii Cibraaniyadaha ahaa, oo middood magaceeda Shifraah la odhan jiray, tan kale magaceedana Fuwah la odhan jiray,

¹⁵The king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah,

¹⁶oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Markii aad umulinaysaan naagaha Cibraaniyadaha, oo aad aragtaan iyagoo gambarka umusha fadhiya, haddii uu wiil yahay, waa inaad dishaan, haddayse gabadh tahay, ha iska noolaato.

¹⁶and he said, “When you perform the duty of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the birth stool; if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.”

¹⁷Laakiinse umulisooyinkii Ilaah bay ka cabsadeen, mana ay samayn wixii boqorkii Masar ku amray, ee way badbaadiyeen carruurtii labka ahayd.

¹⁷But the midwives feared God, The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” and didn’t do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive.

¹⁸Markaasaa boqorkii Masar u yeedhay umulisooyinkii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaad waxan u samayseen, oo aad u badbaadiseen carruurtii labka ahayd?

¹⁸The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing, and have saved the boys alive?”

¹⁹Markaasaa umulisooyinkii waxay Fircoon ku yidhaahdeen, Maxaa yeelay, naagaha Cibraaniyaduhu la mid ma aha naagaha Masriga, oo waa ka dhaqso badan yihiin, oo intii aan umulisooyinku u iman bay umulaan.

¹⁹The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women aren’t like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous, and give birth before the midwife comes to them.”

²⁰Haddaba Ilaah si wanaagsan buu u sameeyey umulisooyinkii, dadkiina waa tarmay, oo aad bay u xoogaysteen.

²⁰God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.

²¹Oo waxay noqotay, in Ilaah umulisooyinkii reero u yeelay, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah bay ka cabsadeen.Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu dadkiisii ku amray, oo ku yidhi, Wiil kasta oo dhasha waa inaad webiga ku tuurtaan, laakiinse gabadh kasta waa inaad badbaadisaan.

²¹It happened, because the midwives feared God, that he gave them families.

²²Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu dadkiisii ku amray, oo ku yidhi, Wiil kasta oo dhasha waa inaad webiga ku tuurtaan, laakiinse gabadh kasta waa inaad badbaadisaan.

²²Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.”
