< Wuok 14 >

1 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya;
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Nyis jo-Israel oduogi mondo gibuor machiegni gi Pi Hahiroth mantie e kind Migdol gi nam. Gibiro bworo machiegni gi nam, mochomore gi Baal Zefon.
Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.
3 Farao biro paro kowacho ni, ‘Jo-Israel digni e piny korwenyo e thim.’
For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They [are] entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.
4 Abiro miyo chuny Farao bedo mapek, mi owuogi kolawo jo-Israel. To abiro yudo duongʼ ne an awuon kuom Farao kaachiel gi jolwenje duto, eka jo-Misri nongʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye.” Eka jo-Israel notimo kamano.
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow them; and I will be honored upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I [am] the LORD. And they did so.
5 Kane onyis ruodh Misri ni jogo osedhi, Farao gi jodonge noloko pachgi kuom jo-Israel mi giwacho niya, “Angʼo ma wasetimoni? Waseweyo jo-Israel odhi kendo tije ma yande gitiyonwa orumo!”
And it was told to the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
6 Eka ne oikne geche mar jolweny, bangʼe nokawo jolweny mage.
And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:
7 Nokawo geche mia auchiel mabeyo mag lweny, kod geche mamoko mag jo-Misri ka moro ka moro nigi jatend lweny.
And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
8 Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo chuny Farao ma ruodh Misri odoko matek, mi nolawo jo-Israel mane wuotho ka gin gi chir.
And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
9 Jo-Misri kod farese Farao gi gechegi, gi joidh farese kod jolweny nolawo jo-Israel mi gijukogi ka gibworo e bath nam machiegni gi Pi Hahiroth mochomore gi Baal Zefon.
But the Egyptians pursued them (all the horses [and] chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army) and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
10 Kane Farao ochopo machiegni kodgi, jo-Israel notingʼo wangʼ-gi mi gineno ka jo-Misri lawogi. Luoro nomakogi mi giywakne Jehova Nyasaye.
And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were greatly afraid; and the children of Israel cried to the LORD.
11 Negiwacho ni Musa niya, “Ne onge kuonde yiko mane inyalo yikwae e piny Misri momiyo ikelowa e thim ka mondo wathoe? En angʼo ma isetimonwani kuom golowa e piny Misri?
And they said to Moses, Because [there were] no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why hast thou dealt thus with us, to conduct us out of Egypt?
12 Donge ne wanyisi e piny Misri ni, ‘Wewa, mondo watine jo-Misri?’ Dine bernwa tiyo ni jo-Misri moloyo tho e thim!”
[Is] not this the word that we told thee in Egypt, Saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For [it had been] better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.
13 Musa nodwoko ogandano niya, “Kik ubed maluor. Chungʼuru motegno eka ubiro neno resruok ma Jehova Nyasaye biro kelonu kawuono. Jo-Misri ma uneno kawuononi ok unuchak une kendo.
And Moses said to the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you to-day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14 Jehova Nyasaye biro kedonu; owinjore ubed gi kwe.”
The LORD will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
15 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Angʼo momiyo uywakna? Nyis jo-Israel mondo odhi nyime giwuoth.
And the LORD said to Moses, Why criest thou to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward:
16 Tingʼ ludhi malo kendo irie badi ewi nam mondo ipog pige eka jo-Israel ongʼad nam kawuotho e lowo motwo.
But lift thou thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea.
17 Abiro keto chuny jo-Misri doko matek mondo gilaw bangʼ-gi nyaka ei nam. Kendo abiro yudo duongʼ kuom Farao kaachiel gi jolweny gi geche lwenje kod joidh faresene.
And I, behold I, will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots and upon his horsemen.
18 Jo-Misri biro ngʼeyo ni an Jehova Nyasaye ka ayudo duongʼ kuom Farao gi gechene kod joidh faresene.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have gotten me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
19 Eka Malaika mar Nyasaye, mane osebedo kotelo e nyim jolwenj jo-Israel, nodok chien bangʼ jo-Israel. Bor polo bende ne osudo machiegni e nyim jo-Israel mi odok ka ngʼegi,
And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed, and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:
20 ka ochungʼ e kind jolwenj jo-Misri kod jo-Israel. Otienono duto bor polono nokelo mudho ne konchiel to komachielo nokelo ler; omiyo onge oganda mane osudo machiegni gi machielo otienono duto.
And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness [to them], but it gave light by night [to these]: so that the one came not near the other all the night.
21 Eka Musa norieyo bade ewi nam, kendo otienono duto Jehova Nyasaye notugo yamo ma aa yo wuok chiengʼ mopogo pi nyadiriyo mi kanyo olokore lowo motwo. Pige nopogore,
And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD caused the sea to go [back] by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry [land], and the waters were divided.
22 kendo jo-Israel nongʼado nam kawuotho e lowo motwo, ka pi ogingore e bathgi korachwich gi koracham.
And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry [ground]: and the waters [were] a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
23 Jo-Misri nolawogi kendo farese Farao duto gi gechene kaachiel gi joidh gechene nolawogi nyaka ei nam.
And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, [even] all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 Kane piny dwaro yawore Jehova Nyasaye nonenogi gie ligek mach, mine omiyo jolwenj jo-Misri odigni.
And it came to pass, that, in the morning-watch, the LORD looked to the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire, and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
25 Nomiyo tiende gechegi owuok mine ok ginyal riembogi. Eka jo-Misri nowacho niya, “Waringuru waa kuom jo-Israel! Jehova Nyasaye ema kedonegi kod jo-Misri.”
And took off their chariot-wheels, and made them to move heavily, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
26 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Rie badi e nam mondo pi oum jo-Misri gi gechegi kod joidh faresegi.”
And the LORD said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
27 Musa norieyo bade e nam kendo ka piny ne oyawore, to nonwangʼo ka pi osedok e wangʼe. Jo-Misri ne ringo kochomo dier nam, kendo Jehova Nyasaye noywerogi gi pi nyaka ei namno.
And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 Pi nogingore kadok kare kendo noimo geche gi joidh farese gi jolweny Farao duto mane olawo jo-Israel nyaka e nam. Onge kata achiel kuomgi mane otony.
And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, [and] all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.
29 Jo-Israel to nongʼado nam kawuotho e lowo motwo, ka pi ogingore e bathgi korachwich gi koracham.
But the children of Israel walked upon dry [land] in the midst of the sea; and the waters [were] a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
30 Chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye noreso Israel e lwet jo-Misri, kendo Israel noneno ka jo-Misri otho e dho nam.
Thus the LORD saved Israel that day from the hand of the Egyptians: and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea-shore.
31 Bangʼ ka jo-Israel noseneno teko maduongʼ mane Jehova Nyasaye onyiso kokedo gi jo-Misri, oganda noluoro Jehova Nyasaye kendo negiketo genogi kuome kaachiel gi kuom Musa jatichne.
And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses.
