< Exodo 3 >

1 Ita, agpaspastor pay laeng ni Moises kadagiti arban ni Jetro a katuganganna, ti padi ti Midian. Inturong ni Moises dagiti arban iti labes ti let-ang ket nakadanon idiay Horeb, ti bantay ti Dios.
Now Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to God’s mountain, to Horeb.
2 Nagparang kenkuana ti anghel ni Yahweh sadiay a iti maysa a gil-ayab ti apuy iti bassit a kayo. Kimmita ni Moises, ket adtoy, sumsumged, ngem saan a mapupuoran ti bassit a kayo.
Yahweh’s angel appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the middle of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
3 Kinuna ni Moises, “Umasidegak ket kitaek daytoy nakaskasdaaw a banag, apay a saan a mapupuoran ti kayo.”
Moses said, “I will go now, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burned.”
4 Idi nakita ni Yahweh nga umasideg isuna tapno kitaenna daytoy, inawagan ti Dios isuna manipud iti kayo ket kinunana, “Moises, Moises.” Kinuna ni Moises, “Adtoyak.”
When Yahweh saw that he came over to see, God called to him out of the middle of the bush, and said, “Moses! Moses!” He said, “Here I am.”
5 Kinuna ti Dios, “Saankan nga umas-asideg! Ikkatem ti sapatosmo, ta ti pagtaktakderam a lugar ket daga a naidaton kaniak.”
He said, “Don’t come close. Take off your sandals, for the place you are standing on is holy ground.”
6 Innayonna, “Siak ti Dios ti amam, ti Dios ni Abraham, ti Dios ni Isaac ken ti Dios ni Jacob. Ket inabbongan ni Moises ti rupana, ta mabuteng isuna a kumita iti Dios.
Moreover he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look at God.
7 Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Awan duadua a nakitak ti panagsagsagaba dagiti tattaok nga adda idiay Egipto. Nangngegko dagiti pukkawda gapu kadagiti kapatasda, ta ammok dagiti pannakaparigatda.
Yahweh said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.
8 Bimmabaak tapno wayawayaak ida manipud iti pannakabalin dagiti Egipcio ken ipanawko ida manipud iti dayta a daga ket ipanko ida iti nadam-eg ken nalawa a daga, iti maysa a daga nga agay-ayus ti gatas ken diro; iti rehion dagiti Cananeo, Heteo, Amorreo, Perezeo, Heveo ken Jebuseo.
I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
9 Ket ita, nakadanon kaniak dagiti pukkaw dagiti tattao ti Israel. Maysa pay, nakitak ti pannakaparparigatda nga inaramid dagiti Egipcio.
Now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to me. Moreover I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
10 Ita ngarud, ibaonka kenni Faraon tapno mairuarmo dagiti tattaok, dagiti Israelita, manipud idiay Egipto.”
Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”
11 Ngem kinuna ni Moises iti Dios, “Siasinoak, a rumbeng a mapanak kenni Faraon ken iruar dagiti Israelita manipud idiay Egipto?”
Moses said to God, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”
12 Simmungbat ti Dios, “Awan duadua nga addaakto kenka. Daytoyto ti pagilasinan nga imbaonka. Inton mairuarmo dagiti tattao manipud iti Egipto, dayawendakto iti daytoy a bantay.”
He said, “Certainly I will be with you. This will be the token to you, that I have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.”
13 Kinuna ni Moises iti Dios, “No mapanak kadagiti Israelita ket ibagak kadakuada, 'Imbaonnak ti Dios dagiti kapuonanyo kadakayo,' ket no kunada kaniak, 'Ania ti naganna?' Ania ti rumbeng nga ibagak kadakuada?”
Moses said to God, “Behold, when I come to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what should I tell them?”
14 Kinuna ti Dios kenni Moises, “SIAK TI SIAK.” Kinuna ti Dios. “Masapul nga ibagam kadagiti Israelita, 'Imbaonnak ni SIAK kadakayo.”'
God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM,” and he said, “You shall tell the children of Israel this: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
15 Kinuna pay ti Dios kenni Moises, “Masapul nga ibagam kadagiti Israelita, 'Imbaonnak ni Yahweh, ti Dios dagiti kapuonanyo, ti Dios ni Abraham, ti Dios ni Isaac ken ti Dios ni Jacob kadakayo. Daytoy ti naganko iti agnanayon, ken kastoyto ti pananglagip kaniak dagiti amin a henerasion.'
God said moreover to Moses, “You shall tell the children of Israel this, ‘Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.
16 Mapanka ket ummongem dagiti panglakayen ti Israel. Ibagam kadakuada, 'Ni Yahweh, ti Dios dagiti kapuonanyo, ti Dios ni Abraham, ni Isaac kenni Jacob ket nagparang kaniak ket kinunana, “Pudno a napaliiwko ken nakitak ti napasamak kadakayo idiay Egipto.
Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and tell them, ‘Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt.
17 Inkarik nga ipanawkayo manipud iti pannakaparigatyo idiay Egipto ket ipankayo iti daga dagiti Cananeo, Heteo, Amorreo, Perezeo, Heveo ken Jebuseo, maysa a daga nga agay-ayus ti gatas ken diro.”'
I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, to a land flowing with milk and honey.”’
18 Dumngegdanto kenka. Masapul a mapankayo iti ari ti Egipto, Sika ken dagiti panglakayen ti Israel, ket masapul nga ibagam kenkuana, 'Ni Yahweh, ti Dios dagiti Hebreo, ket nakisinnarak kadakami. Isu nga ita, palubosannakami nga agdaliasat iti tallo nga aldaw a mapan idiay let-ang, tapno makaidatonkami kenni Yahweh, a Diosmi.'
They will listen to your voice. You shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and you shall tell him, ‘Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh, our God.’
19 Ngem ammok a saannakayonto a palubosan ti ari ti Egipto, malaksid no mapilit a matignay ti imana.
I know that the king of Egypt won’t give you permission to go, no, not by a mighty hand.
20 Iyunnatkonto dagiti imak ket dusaekto dagiti Egipcio babaen kadagiti amin a milagro nga aramidekto kadakuada. Kalpasan dayta, palubosannakayonto.
I will reach out my hand and strike Egypt with all my wonders which I will do among them, and after that he will let you go.
21 Ikkakto dagiti tattao iti pabor manipud kadagiti Egipcio, isu nga inton pumanawkayo, saankayo a mapan nga ima-ima.
I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and it will happen that when you go, you shall not go empty-handed.
22 Dumawatto ti tunggal babai iti pirak ken balitok nga alahas ken pagan-anay kadagiti kaarrubana nga Egipcio ken iti siasinoman a babai nga agnanaed iti balay ti kaarrubana. Ikabilyonto dagitoy kadagiti annakyo a lallaki ken babbai. Iti daytoy a wagas, alaenyonto amin a kinabaknang dagiti Egipcio.”
But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, and of her who visits her house, jewels of silver, jewels of gold, and clothing. You shall put them on your sons, and on your daughters. You shall plunder the Egyptians.”
