Exodus 14
1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-zephon: over against it shall ye encamp by the sea.
“Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli macooke na thuutha, na mambe hema gũkuhĩ na Pi-Hahirothu, gatagatĩ ka Migidoli na iria. Nĩmambe hema hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, kũngʼethanĩra na Baali-Zefoni.
3 And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.
Firaũni nĩageciiria atĩrĩ, ‘andũ a Isiraeli marĩ na kĩrigiicano no kũũrũũra marorũũra bũrũri-inĩ, mahingĩrĩirio nĩ werũ.’
4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he shall follow after them; and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host: and the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah. And they did so.
Na nĩngomia ngoro ya Firaũni, nake nĩakamaingatithia. No niĩ mwene nĩngegĩĩra na riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni na mbũtũ yake yothe ya ita, nao andũ a Misiri nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka o ũguo merĩtwo.
5 And it was told the king of Egypt that the people were fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
Rĩrĩa mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri eerirwo atĩ andũ acio nĩmorĩte-rĩ, Firaũni na anene ake makĩĩricũkwo ũhoro ũcio, magĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩ! Tweka atĩa? Twarekereria andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ na ithuĩ tuorĩrwo nĩ ũtungata wao?”
6 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akiuga ngaari yake ya ita ĩhaarĩrio, na agĩthiĩ na mbũtũ yake ya ita.
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them.
Agĩthiĩ na ngaari cia ita 600 iria njega mũno, o hamwe na ngaari cia ita iria ingĩ ciothe cia bũrũri wa Misiri, ciothe irũgamĩrĩirwo nĩ anene.
8 And Jehovah hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
Jehova akĩũmia ngoro ya Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩrũmĩrĩra andũ a Isiraeli na ihenya arĩa moimagarĩte makinyũkĩtie na ũcamba.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after 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.
Andũ a Misiri, hamwe na mbarathi ciothe cia Firaũni na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi, na thigari, makĩrũmĩrĩra andũ a Isiraeli na ihenya makĩmakinyĩra harĩa maambĩte hema rũteere-inĩ rwa iria, hakuhĩ na Pi-Hahirothu kũngʼethera Baali-Zefoni.
10 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto Jehovah.
Firaũni akuhĩrĩria-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli makĩĩhũgũra, makĩona andũ a Misiri mamoimĩte thuutha makĩmaka mũno, magĩkaĩra Jehova.
11 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to bring us forth out of Egypt?
Makĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mbĩrĩra gũtaarĩ bũrũri wa Misiri, nĩguo ũtũrehe tũkuĩre gũkũ werũ-inĩ? Nĩ atĩa ũũ ũtwĩkĩte ũgatũruta bũrũri wa Misiri?
12 Is not this the word that we spake unto thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it were better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.
Githĩ tũtiakwĩrire tũrĩ o bũrũri wa Misiri atĩ ũtigane na ithuĩ, ũreke tũtungatĩre andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri? Kũngĩarĩ wega tũtungatĩre andũ a Misiri kũrĩ gũkuĩra werũ-inĩ!”
13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which he will work for you to-day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
Musa agĩcookeria andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Tigai gwĩtigĩra. Mwĩhaandei wega, na nĩmũkuona ũhonokio ũrĩa Jehova ekũmũrehere ũmũthĩ. Andũ a Misiri aya mũrona ũmũthĩ, mũtikamona rĩngĩ.
14 Jehovah will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
Jehova nĩekũmũrũĩrĩra, mũbatie o gũikara mũhooreire.”
15 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũrangaĩra nĩkĩ? Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli mathiĩ na mbere.
16 And lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground.
Oya rũthanju rwaku, na ũtambũrũkie guoko igũrũ wa iria ũgayanie maaĩ nĩgeetha andũ a Isiraeli matuĩkanĩrie iria-inĩ, mathiĩrĩire thĩ nyũmũ.
17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them: and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
Nĩngũũmia ngoro cia andũ a Misiri nĩgeetha o nao mamarũmĩrĩre. Na nĩngegĩĩra riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni na mbũtũ yake ya ita, o na nĩ ũndũ wa ngaari ciake cia ita, o na andũ ake arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have gotten me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
Nao andũ a Misiri nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova hĩndĩ ĩyo ngegĩĩra riiri nĩ ũndũ wa Firaũni, na ngaari ciake cia ita na andũ ake arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.”
19 And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them:
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũraika wa Ngai ũrĩa wathiiaga atongoretie mbũtũ ya thigari cia Isiraeli, akĩehera agĩcooka thuutha wao. Gĩtugĩ gĩa itu nakĩo gĩkiuma hau mbere, gĩkĩrũgama thuutha wao,
20 and it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud and the darkness, yet gave it light by night: and the one came not near the other all the night.
gĩkĩgĩa gatagatĩ ga thigari cia Misiri na cia Isiraeli. Ũtukũ wothe itu rĩu rĩgĩĩkĩra nduma mwena ũmwe, na ũtheri mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ; nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ andũ makuhĩrĩirie arĩa angĩ ũtukũ wothe.
21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and Jehovah caused the sea to go [back] by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
Ningĩ Musa agĩtambũrũkia guoko igũrũ wa iria, na ũtukũ wothe Jehova agĩtindĩka iria na thuutha na ũndũ wa rũhuho rwa kuuma mwena wa irathĩro, na agĩtũma hau hatuĩke thĩ nyũmũ. Maaĩ macio makĩgayũkana,
22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩringa iria mahĩtũkĩire thĩ nyũmũ, maaĩ marũgamĩte mwena wao wa ũrĩo na wa ũmotho.
23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
Nao andũ a Misiri makĩmarũmĩrĩra na ihenya, nacio mbarathi ciothe cia Firaũni na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi makĩmarũmĩrĩra nginya iria-inĩ.
24 And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Jehovah looked forth upon the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and discomfited the host of the Egyptians.
Rũciinĩ ruoro rũgĩtema-rĩ, Jehova agĩcũthĩrĩria mbũtũ ya ita ya andũ a Misiri arĩ gĩtugĩ-inĩ kĩa mwaki na gĩa itu, nake akĩmĩrigiica.
25 And he took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for Jehovah fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
Agĩtũma magũrũ ma ngaari ciao cia ita macomoke nĩgeetha makorwo na thĩĩna wa gũcitwarithia. Nao andũ a Misiri makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũũrei twehere harĩ andũ aya a Isiraeli! Jehova nĩwe ũramarũĩrĩra kũrĩ andũ a Misiri.”
26 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Tambũrũkia guoko igũrũ wa iria nĩgeetha maaĩ macooke mahubanĩrie andũ a Misiri na ngaari ciao cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi.”
27 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 Jehovah overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
Musa agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ wa iria, na gũgĩkĩa-rĩ, iria rĩgĩcooka gũtherera o ta mbere. Nao andũ a Misiri makĩgeria kũrĩũrĩra, no Jehova akĩmahubanĩria iria-inĩ thĩinĩ.
28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the host of Pharaoh that went in after them into the sea; there remained not so much as one of them.
Maaĩ magĩcookana, magĩthika ngaari cia ita na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi; nĩo mbũtũ yothe ya Firaũni ĩrĩa yarũmĩrĩire andũ a Isiraeli iria-inĩ. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao wahonokire.
29 But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
No andũ a Isiraeli maaringire iria magereire njĩra nyũmũ, rũthingo rwa maaĩ rũrũgamĩte mwena wao wa ũrĩo na wa ũmotho.
30 Thus Jehovah saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea-shore.
Mũthenya ũcio Jehova akĩhonokia Isiraeli kuuma moko-inĩ ma andũ a Misiri, nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩĩonera ciimba cia andũ a Misiri kũu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
31 And Israel saw the great work which Jehovah did upon the Egyptians, and the people feared Jehovah: and they believed in Jehovah, and in his servant Moses.
Na rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli moonire hinya mũnene ũrĩa Jehova onirie andũ a Misiri-rĩ, andũ acio magĩĩtigĩra Jehova na makĩmwĩhoka o na makĩĩhoka Musa ndungata yake.
