Exodus 14
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
2 “Tell the Israelites to turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. You are to encamp by the sea, directly opposite Baal-zephon.
Lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely mba hivily izy ka hitoby eo akaikin’ i Pi-hahirota, eo anelanelan’ i Migdolasy ny ranomasina; eo akaikin’ i Bala-zefona, dia tandrifiny, no hitobianareo, eo amoron’ ny ranomasina.
3 For Pharaoh will say of the Israelites, ‘They are wandering the land in confusion; the wilderness has boxed them in.’
Ary Farao hilaza ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Azon’ ny tamberintany izy ka voahidin’ ny efitra.
4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart so that he will pursue them. But I will gain honor by means of Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD.” So this is what the Israelites did.
Dia hanamafy ny fon’ i Farao Aho, ka hanenjika anareo izy; dia hankalazaina Aho noho ny hataoko amin’ i Farao sy amin’ ny miaramilany rehetra, ka ho fantatry ny Egyptiana fa Izaho no Jehovah. Dia nataon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany.
5 When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds about them and said, “What have we done? We have released Israel from serving us.”
Ary nisy nanambara tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta fa efa nandositra ny olona, dia niova ny fon’ i Farao sy ny mpanompony ny amin’ ny olona, ka hoy izy: Inona izao nataontsika izao, no nandefa ny Isiraely hiala tamin’ ny fanompoany antsika isika?
6 So Pharaoh prepared his chariot and took his army with him.
Dia nasainy nofehezina tamin’ ny kalesy ny soavaly, sady nitondra ny vahoakany hanaraka azy izy.
7 He took 600 of the best chariots, and all the other chariots of Egypt, with officers over all of them.
Ary nitondra kalesy enin-jato voafantina sy ny kalesin’ ny Egyptiana rehetra izy, izay samy nisy mpiady avy izy rehetra.
8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt so that he pursued the Israelites, who were marching out defiantly.
Ary Jehovah nanamafy ny fon’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, dia nanenjika ny Zanak’ Isiraely izy, na dia tamin’ ny tanana avo aza no nivoahany.
9 The Egyptians—all Pharaoh’s horses and chariots, horsemen and troops—pursued the Israelites and overtook them as they camped by the sea near Pi-hahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon.
Koa nanenjika azy ny Egyptiana, dia ny soavaly rehetra mitarika ny kalesin’ i Farao sy ny soavaliny fitaingina ary ny miaramilany, ka nahatratra azy nitoby teo amoron’ ny ranomasina, teo anilan’ i Pi-hahirota, tandrifin’ i Balazefona.
10 As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up and saw the Egyptians marching after them, and they were terrified and cried out to the LORD.
Ary rehefa mby akaiky Farao, dia natopin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny masony, ka, indreo, ny Egyptiana tamy manenjika azy; dia raiki-tahotra indrindra ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah.
11 They said to Moses, “Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us into the wilderness to die? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
Ary hoy koa izy tamin’ i Mosesy: Moa tsy nisy fasana va tany Egypta, no nentinao ho faty atỳ an-efitra izahay? Nahoana no nanao izany taminay ianao ka nitondra anay nivoaka avy tany Egypta?
12 Did we not say to you in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
Tsy izao va no teny nolazainay taminao fony tany Egypta hoe: Aoka izay fa avelao ihany izahay hanompo ny Egyptiana? Fa aleonay manompo ny Egyptiana toy izay ho faty any an-efitra.
13 But Moses told the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the LORD’s salvation, which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians you see today, you will never see again.
Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ ny olona: Aza matahotra ianareo, mijanòna, fa ho hitanareo ny famonjen’ i Jehovah, izay hataony ho anareo anio; fa ny Egyptiana, izay hitanareo anio, dia tsy ho hitanareo intsony mandrakizay.
14 The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
Jehovah hiady ho anareo, fa ianareo kosa hangina.
15 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Nahoana no mitaraina amiko ianao? lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely mba handroso.
16 And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.
Ary aingao ny tehinao, dia ahinjiro ambonin’ ny ranomasina ny tananao, ka saraho ny rano, dia handeha hamaky eo afovoan’ ny ranomasina mandia ny tany maina ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
17 And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them. Then I will gain honor by means of Pharaoh and all his army and chariots and horsemen.
Ary, indro, Izaho hanamafy ny fon’ ny Egyptiana, ka hiditra hanenjika azy izy; dia hankalazaina Aho noho ny hataoko amin’ i Farao sy amin’ ny miaramilany rehetra mbamin’ ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny,
18 The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I am honored through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”
dia ho fantatry ny Egyptiana fa Izaho no Jehovah, rehefa ankalazaina Aho noho ny ataoko amin’ i Farao sy ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny.
19 And the angel of God, who had gone before the camp of Israel, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from before them and stood behind them,
Ary Ilay Anjelin’ Andriamanitra, Izay nandeha teo alohan’ ny tobin’ ny Isiraely, dia nifindra ka nankeo aoriany; ary ny andri-rahona nifindra niala teo alohany dia nijanona teo aoriany
20 so that it came between the camps of Egypt and Israel. The cloud was there in the darkness, but it lit up the night. So all night long neither camp went near the other.
ka tonga teo anelanelan’ ny tobin’ ny Egyptiana sy ny tobin’ ny Isiraely: dia teo ihany ny rahona sy ny fahamaizinana, nefa nampahazava ny alina kosa, ka dia tsy nifanatona izy roa tonta mandritra ny alina.
21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the LORD drove back the sea with a strong east wind that turned it into dry land. So the waters were divided,
Dia nahinjitr’ i Mosesy teo ambonin’ ny ranomasina ny tànany; ary rivotra mahery avy atsinanana no nampisavan’ i Jehovah ny ranomasina mandritra iny alina iny, ka nataony tany maina ny ranomasina, ary dia voasaraka ny rano.
22 and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.
Dia nandeha teo afovoan’ ny ranomasina nandia ny tany maina ny Zanak’ Isiraely; ary ny rano dia tonga fefy ho azy teo amin’ ny ankavanany sy teo amin’ ny ankaviany.
23 And the Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and horsemen—and followed them into the sea.
Dia nanenjika azy ny Egyptiana ka niditra nanaraka azy teo afovoan’ ny ranomasina, dia ny soavalin’ i Farao rehetra sy ny kalesiny ary ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny.
24 At morning watch, however, the LORD looked down on the army of the Egyptians from the pillar of fire and cloud, and He threw their camp into confusion.
Ary tamin’ ny fiambenana maraina dia nijery ny tobin’ ny Egyptiana tao amin’ ny andri-afo sy ny rahona Jehovah ka nampifanaritaka ny tobin’ ny Egyptiana.
25 He caused their chariot wheels to wobble, so that they had difficulty driving. “Let us flee from the Israelites,” said the Egyptians, “for the LORD is fighting for them against Egypt!”
Ary nanala ny kodian’ ny kalesiny Izy ka nampahasarotra ny nandehanany, dia hoy ny Egyptiana: Aoka handositra ny tavan’ ny Isiraely isika, fa Jehovah no miady amin’ ny Egyptiana ho an’ ireo.
26 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen.”
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Ahinjiro eo ambonin’ ny ranomasina ny tananao, mba hikatonan’ ny rano amin’ ny Egyptiana mbamin’ ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoa valiny.
27 So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to its normal state. As the Egyptians were retreating, the LORD swept them into the sea.
Dia nahinjitr’ i Mosesy teo ambonin’ ny ranomasina ny tànany, ka nikatona ho tahaka ny teo ny ranomasina, rehefa nadiva ho maraina ny andro; ary ny Egyptiana nandositra, kanjo nitsena ny rano ihany izy, dia narian’ i Jehovah teo afovoan’ ny ranomasina ny Egyptiana.
28 The waters flowed back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the entire army of Pharaoh that had chased the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived.
Ary dia nikatona ny rano ka nanarona ny kalesy sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly, dia ny miaramilan’ i Farao rehetra izay niditra teo amin’ ny ranomasina nanenjika ny Zanak’ Isiraely; koa tsy nisy niangana na dia iray akory aza.
29 But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.
Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely kosa nandeha tamin’ ny tany maina teo afovoan’ ny ranomasina; ary ny rano dia tonga fefy ho azy teo amin’ ny ankavanany sy teo amin’ ny ankaviany.
30 That day the LORD saved Israel from the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the shore.
Izany no namonjen’ i Jehovah ny Isiraely tamin’ izany andro izany mba tsy ho azon’ ny Egyptiana; ary hitan’ ny Isiraely teny amoron’ ny ranomasina ny fatin’ ny Egyptiana.
31 When Israel saw the great power that the LORD had exercised over the Egyptians, the people feared the LORD and believed in Him and in His servant Moses.
Ary rehefa hitan’ ny Isiraely ny asa lehibe izay nataon’ ny tànan’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny Egyptiana, dia natahotra an’ i Jehovah ny olona ka nino an’ i Jehovah sy Mosesy mpanompony.
