⁵And thou shalt answer and say before Jehovah thy God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father; and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

⁶The Egyptians dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:

⁶ Misirancey mo n'iri taabandi, k'iri kankam, k'iri daŋ tamtaray laalo ra.

⁶And the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:

¹⁴I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put away of it, being unclean, nor given of it for the dead: I have listened to the voice of Yahweh my God; I have done according to all that you have commanded me.

¹⁴ Ay mana ŋwa a gaa ay seew jirbey ra. Ay mana lamb'a gaa waati kaŋ ay ziibi, ay mana kaa a gaa mo ka sarga buuko fo se. Amma ay na hanga jeeri Rabbi ay Irikoyo sanno se. Mate kulu kaŋ ni n'ay lordi nd'a, yaadin cine mo no ay te.

¹⁵Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.”

¹⁵ Sohõ, ni go noodin beene, ni nangoray hananta ra, ni m'ay guna ganda. Ma ni jama Israyla kulu albarkandi, iri nda laabo kaŋ ni n'iri no, mate kaŋ ni ze d'a iri kaayey se, laabu no kaŋ ga wa da yu bambari.»
