¹Yahweh said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in their midst,

¹ Rabbi ne Musa se koyne: «Ma furo Firawna do, zama ay n'a bina d'a bannyey waney mo sandandi, zama ay m'ay alaama woone yaŋ cabe i game ra.

¹And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in the midst of them,

²and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am Yahweh.”

² Zama mo ni m'ay baaru ci ni ize nda ni izo izey hangey ra. Hariyaŋ kaŋ ay te Misira boŋ, da alaamey kaŋ yaŋ ay te ni do, zama mo araŋ ma woone bay: kaŋ ay no ga ti Rabbi.»

²and that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought upon Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know that I am Jehovah.

³Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.

³ Musa nda Haruna binde furo Firawna do. I ne a se: «Yaa no Rabbi, Ibraniyancey Irikoyo ci: Waati fo no ni ga yadda ka ni boŋ kaynandi ay jine? M'ay borey taŋ zama i ma may ay se.

³And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.

⁴Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,

⁴ Da ni wangu ka yadda k'ay borey taŋ mo, a go, suba ay ga kande dooyaŋ ni laabo ra.

⁴Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to-morrow will I bring locusts into thy border:

⁵and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.

⁵ I ga laabo me-d'a-me kulu daabu, kala boro si hin ka di ganda laabo. I ga dumari izey kulu kaŋ cindi ŋwa, sanda haŋ kaŋ mongo gariyo se kaŋ ga funa araŋ se hala hõ. I ga tuuri kaŋ cindi araŋ se saajo ra kulu ŋwa.

⁵and they shall cover the face of the earth, so that one shall not be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:

⁶Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.

⁶ Ni windo da ni bannyey windey da Misirancey windey kulu mo ga to da do, haŋ kaŋ ni baabey da ni kaayey mana di baa ce fo, za han kaŋ hane i goro ndunnya ra hala ka kaa sohõ.» Kala Musa bare ka fun Firawna do.

⁶and thy houses shall be filled, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither thy fathers nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned, and went out from Pharaoh.

⁷Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve Yahweh, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”

⁷ Firawna bannyey binde ne a se: «Waatifo no boro wo ga ciya hirrimi iri se? I ma borey wo naŋ i ma fatta, zama i ma may Rabbi ngey Irikoyo se. Hala sohõ nin wo, ni mana bay kaŋ Misira laabo halaci bo?»

⁷And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?

⁸Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve Yahweh your God; but who are those who will go?”

⁸ I ye ka kande Musa nda Haruna Firawna do. A ne i se mo: «Wa koy ka may Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo se. Amma may da may no ga koy?»

⁸And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve Jehovah your God; but who are they that shall go?

⁹Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old; with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast to Yahweh.”

⁹ Musa ne: «Iri zankey da arkusey no ga koy. Iri ize alborey da wayborey d'iri kurey, haw da feeji, iri ga kond'ey, zama Rabbi se sududuyaŋ batu go iri boŋ.»

⁹And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old; with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto Jehovah.

¹⁰He said to them, “Yahweh be with you if I will let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.

¹⁰ Firawna ne a se: «Rabbi ma goro araŋ banda, amma mate no ay ga te k'araŋ d'araŋ zankey taŋ? Wa te laakal, zama laala no araŋ go ga miila.

¹⁰And he said unto them, So be Jehovah with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.

¹¹Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve Yahweh; for that is what you desire!” They were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.

¹¹ Manti yaadin no bo! Araŋ wo, kaŋ yaŋ ga ti alborey, wa koy araŋ hinne ka may Rabbi se, zama wo kaŋ araŋ ga ba nooya.» I n'i gaaray ka kaa Firawna jine.

¹¹Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve Jehovah; for that is what ye desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.

¹²Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”

¹² Rabbi ne Musa se koyne: «Ni kamba salle laabo boŋ zama do ma furo Misira laabo ra, i ma laabo kobto kulu ŋwa, danga haŋ kaŋ gariyo naŋ nooya.»

¹²And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.

¹³Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and Yahweh brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

¹³ Musa binde na nga goobo salle Misira laabo boŋ. Kala Rabbi kande wayna funay hawo laabo boŋ zaaro da cino din kulu. Saaya kaŋ mo bo, wayna funay hawo kande do.

¹³And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

¹⁴The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.

¹⁴ Dwa kaa ka zumbu Misira laabo kulu ra ka Misira laabo daabu hal a hirrey kulu me, i ga futu mo gumo. Za doŋ do mana bay ka te yaadin cine, i dumi si ye ka te mo koyne.

¹⁴And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt; very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.

¹⁵For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

¹⁵ Zama i na laabo kulu daabu, hala laabo kulu te kubay. I na laabo kobto kulu ŋwa, da tuuri-nyaŋey izey kaŋ yaŋ gariyo naŋ. Hay fo kulu mana cindi sanda kobto tayo, za tuuri-nyaŋey gaa kala a ma koy farey ra subu, Misira laabo kulu ra.

¹⁵For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

¹⁶Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against Yahweh your God, and against you.

¹⁶ Saaya din Firawna na Musa nda Haruna ce da cahãyaŋ. A ne: «Ay na zunubi te Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo jine, d'araŋ jine mo.

¹⁶Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you.

¹⁷Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to Yahweh your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”

¹⁷ Sohõ binde, ay ga ni ŋwaaray, m'ay zunubi woone yaafa ay se sorro follonko hinne. Wa Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo ŋwaaray ay se a ma buuyaŋ woone hinne ganandi ay se.»

¹⁷Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat Jehovah your God, that he may take away from me this death only.

¹⁸He went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.

¹⁸ Musa fatta Firawna do ka Rabbi ŋwaaray koyne.

¹⁸And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated Jehovah.

¹⁹Yahweh turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds . There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.

¹⁹ Kala Rabbi na haw gaabikoono bare a ma ye wayna funay haray koyne. A na doy ku ka gusam Teeku Cira ra. Baa do ize folloŋ mana cindi Misira laabo kulu me-a-me ra.

¹⁹And Jehovah turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea; there remained not one locust in all the border of Egypt.

²⁰But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.

²⁰ Amma Rabbi na Firawna bina sandandi, a mana Israyla izey taŋ mo.

²⁰But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.

²¹Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”

²¹ Rabbi ne Musa se koyne: «Ni kamba sambu beene zama kubay ma te Misira laabo kulu ra, kubay kaŋ boro ga hin ka ham.»

²¹And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.

²²Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.

²² Musa binde na nga kamba salle beene. Kubay te mo, ibi tik! Misira laabo kulu ra, kala jirbi hinza.

²²And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;

²³They didn’t see one another, neither did anyone rise from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

²³ I si di care, a si no mo boro kaŋ tun nga gurbo ra jirbi hinza din ra. Amma Israyla izey kulu gonda kaari ngey nangorayey ra.

²³they saw not one another, neither rose any one from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

²⁴Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve Yahweh. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”

²⁴ Firawna na Musa ce ka ne: «Wa koy ka may Rabbi se. Kala day i ma fay d'araŋ haw kurey da feeji kurey neewo. Araŋ zankey wo ma koy araŋ banda.»

²⁴And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve Jehovah; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.

²⁵Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh our God.

²⁵ Musa ne: «Ni g'iri no mo haŋ kaŋ iri ga may d'a, da nooyaŋ hari tonyaŋ se iri kambe ra, zama iri ma sargay te Rabbi iri Irikoyo se.

²⁵And Moses said, Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, that we may sacrifice unto Jehovah our God.

²⁶Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve Yahweh our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve Yahweh, until we come there.”

²⁶ Iri almaney mo ga koy iri banda. Baa ce camse fo, iri s'a naŋ banda, zama i ra no iri ga kaa ka may d'a Rabbi iri Irikoyo se. Iri si bay mo haŋ kaŋ no iri ga may d'a Rabbi se kala nd'iri to noodin jina.»

²⁶Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind: for thereof must we take to serve Jehovah our God; and we know not with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come thither.

²⁷But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.

²⁷ Amma Rabbi na Firawna bina sandandi, a mana i taŋ mo.

²⁷But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.

²⁸Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”

²⁸ Firawna ne a se koyne: «Koy, gana noodin! Ma te laakal mo da ni boŋ. Ma si ye k'ay moyduma guna koyne, zama zaaro kaŋ ni g'ay moyduma guna koyne, kulu ni ga bu.»

²⁸And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die.

²⁹Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”

²⁹ Musa ne: «Ni sanno kaŋ ni ci ay se boori. Ay si ye ka ni moyduma guna koyne.»

²⁹And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well. I will see thy face again no more.
