Exodus 8
1 And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Ggenda ewa Falaawo omugambe nti, ‘Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, “Leka abantu bange bagende, balyoke bansinze.
2 But if thou wilt not let them go behold I will strike all thy coasts with frogs.
Naye bw’onoogaana n’otabakkiriza kugenda, laba, nnaasindika ebikere ne bijjula ensi yo yonna.
3 And the river shall bring forth an abundance of frogs: which shall come up, and enter into thy house, and thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and in the houses of thy servants, and to thy people, and into thy ovens, and into the remains of thy meats;
Omugga gulivaamu ebikere enkumu ennyo ebirituuka ne mu lubiri lwo. Biriyingira mu kisenge kyo mw’osula, ne ku kitanda kyo. Biriyingira mu nnyumba z’abaweereza bo ne mu z’abantu bo. Biriyingira ne mu byoto omufumbirwa.
4 And the frogs shall come in to thee and to thy people, and to all thy servants.
Ebikere birikuwalampa ne bikutambulirako ne ku bakungu bo bonna ne ku bantu bo.”’”
5 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand upon the streams and upon the rivers and the pools, and bring forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.
Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Tegeeza Alooni nti, ‘Golola omukono gwo oyolekeze omuggo gwo eri emigga, n’eri emikutu gy’amazzi, n’eri ebidiba, osobozese ebikere okubuna ensi yonna ey’e Misiri.’”
6 And Aaron stretched forth his hand upon the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
Bw’atyo Alooni n’agolola omukono gwe ku mazzi gonna ag’omu Misiri; ebikere ne bivaayo ne bijjula ensi yonna ey’e Misiri.
7 And the magicians also by their enchantments did in like manner, and the brought forth frogs upon all the land of Egypt.
Abalogo nabo ne bakola bwe batyo mu magezi gaabwe ag’ekyama, nabo ne baleeta ebikere mu nsi ey’e Misiri.
8 But Pharao called Moses and Aaron and said to them: Pray ye to the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni n’abagamba nti, “Mwegayirire Mukama anziggyeeko ebikere bino era ne ku bantu bange, ndyoke nange ndeke abantu bammwe bagende baweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.”
9 And Moses said to Pharao: Set me a time when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs may be driven away from thee and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people: and may remain only in the river.
Musa n’addamu Falaawo nti, “Weerondere ekiseera nga bw’osiima, w’oyagalira neegayirire Mukama ku lulwo ne ku lw’abaweereza bo, ne ku lw’abantu bo, ebikere ebikuliko n’ebiri mu nnyumba zo bizikirizibwe, bisigale mu mugga Kiyira mwokka.”
10 And he answered: Tomorrow. But he said: I will do according to thy word; that thou mayst know that there is none like to the Lord our God.
Falaawo n’agamba nti, “Enkya.” Musa n’agamba nti, “Kijja kubeera nga bw’ogambye, olyoke otegeere nga bwe watali n’omu afaanana nga Mukama Katonda waffe.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people; and shall remain only in the river.
Ebikere bijja kukuviira, bive ne mu mayumba go, biviire n’abaweereza bo n’abantu bo; bijja kusigala mu mugga mwokka.”
12 And Moses and Aaron went forth from Pharao: and Moses cried to the Lord for the promise, which he had made to Pharao concerning the frogs.
Awo Musa ne Alooni ne bava ewa Falaawo. Musa ne yeegayirira Mukama olw’ebikere Mukama bye yali aleetedde Falaawo.
13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses: and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields:
Mukama n’akolera Musa kye yamusaba. Ebikere ne bifiira mu mayumba, ne mu mpya mu byalo, ne mu nnimiro.
14 And they gathered them together into immense heaps, and the land was corrupted.
Ne bikuŋŋaanyizibwa entuumo n’entuumo; ensi n’ejjula ekivundu.
15 And Pharao seeing that rest was given, hardened his own heart, and did not hear them, as the Lord had commanded.
Naye Falaawo bwe yalaba nga waliwo wassiza ku mukka, n’akakanyaza omutima gwe, ebya Musa ne Alooni n’alekera awo okubiwuliriza, era nga Mukama bwe yali agambye.
16 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy rod, and strike the dust of the earth: and may there be sciniphs in all the land of Egypt.
Awo Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa nti, “Gamba Alooni bw’oti nti, ‘Golola omuggo gwo, okube ku nfuufu eri ku ttaka, eryoke efuuke ensekere mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri.’”
17 And they did so. And Aaron stretched forth his hand, holding the rod: and he struck the dust of the earth, and there came sciniphs on men and on beasts: all the dust of the earth was turned into sciniphs through all the land of Egypt.
Ne bakola nga Mukama bw’abagambye; Alooni n’agolola omukono gwe ogwali gukute omuggo, n’akuba ku nfuufu ku ttaka, ne muvaamu ensekere ne zitambulira ku bantu ne ku nsolo; enfuufu yonna mu nsi y’e Misiri n’efuuka nsekere.
18 And the magicians with their enchantments practiced in like manner, to bring forth sciniphs, and they could not and there were sciniphs as well on men as on beasts.
Abalogo nabo ne bagezaako mu magezi gaabwe ag’ekyama okufuusa ensekere, naye ne balemwa. Ensekere ne ziteevuunya ku bantu ne ku nsolo.
19 And the magicians said to Pharao This is the finger of God. And Pharao heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had commanded.
Abalogo ne bagamba Falaawo nti, “Engalo ya Katonda bino y’ebikoze.” Naye omutima gwa Falaawo ne gukakanyala, n’atabawuliriza, nga Mukama bwe yali agambye.
20 The Lord also said to Moses: Arise early, and stand before Pharao: for he will go forth to the waters: and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Keera mu makya nnyo, ogende osisinkane Falaawo ng’aserengeta ku mazzi omugambe nti, ‘Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, Leka abantu bange bagende, bansinze.
21 But if thou wilt not let them go, behold I will send in upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy houses all kind of flies: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with flies of divers kinds, and the whole land wherein they shall be.
Naye abantu bange bw’otoobakkirize kugenda, laba, ndireeta ebikuukuulu by’ensowera, ku ggwe ne ku baweereza bo, ne ku bantu bo, ne mu nnyumba zammwe. Ensowera zirijjula mu mayumba ga Bamisiri ne ku ttaka kwe gaazimbibwa.
22 And I will make the land of Gessen wherein my people is, wonderful in that lay, so that flies shall not be there: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.
“‘Naye ku lunaku olwo, ekitundu Goseni abantu bange gye babeera ndikiyisa mu ngeri ya njawulo; kubanga yo teribaayo bikuukuulu bya nsowera n’akatono, olyoke otegeere nga nze, Mukama, ndi wano wakati mu nsi.
23 And I will put a division between my people and thy people: tomorrow shall this sign be.
Nzija kussaawo enjawulo wakati w’abantu bange n’abantu bo. Ekyamagero kino kijja kubaawo enkeera.’”
24 And the Lord did so. And there came a very grievous swarm of flies into he houses of Pharao and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt: and the land was corrupted by this kind of flies.
Mukama n’akola bw’atyo. Ebikuukuulu by’ensowera ne byeyiwa mu lubiri lwa Falaawo, mu nnyumba ye, ne mu mayumba g’abaweereza be, ne mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri: ensi n’eyonooneka olw’ebikuukuulu by’ensowera.
25 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go, and sacrifice to your God in this land.
Awo Falaawo n’atumira Musa ne Alooni, n’abagamba nti, “Kale, muweereeyo wano mu nsi eno ssaddaaka eri Katonda wammwe.”
26 And Moses said: It cannot be so: for we shall sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: now if we kill those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.
Naye Musa n’addamu nti, “Ekyo bwe tukikola, tekijja kuba kituufu. Kubanga ssaddaaka ze tuwaayo eri Mukama Katonda waffe, Abamisiri tebajja kuzaagala. Kale singa tuddira ssaddaaka Abamisiri ze bakyawa ennyo bwe batyo, ne tuziwaayo nga balaba, tebajja kutukuba amayinja?
27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness: and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.
Kitugwanira tutambule olugendo lwa nnaku ssatu mu ddungu, tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda waffe nga bw’anaatulagira.”
28 And Pharao said: I will let you go to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness: but go no farther: pray for me.
Falaawo n’agamba nti, “Nzija kubaleka mugende muweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda wammwe mu ddungu, kyokka temugenda ewala ennyo. Kale munsabire.”
29 And Moses said: I will go out from thee, and will pray to the Lord: and the flies shall depart from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people tomorrow: but do not deceive any more, in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
Musa n’addamu nti, “Bwe nnaaba nakava wano w’oli nzija kusaba Mukama, enkya ensowera ziviire Falaawo n’abakungu be awamu n’abantu be. Naye kirungi Falaawo aleme nate kulimbalimba, n’atakkiriza bantu kugenda kuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.”
30 So Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to the Lord.
Musa n’avaayo ewa Falaawo, n’asaba Mukama.
31 And he did according to his word: and he took away the flies from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people: there was not left so much as one.
Mukama n’akola nga Musa bwe yamusaba, n’aggyawo ebikuukuulu by’ensowera ewa Falaawo ne mu baweereza be, ne mu bantu be; ne watasigala nsowera n’emu.
32 And Pharao’s heart was hardened, so that neither this time would he let the people go.
Kyokka ne ku mulundi guno, Falaawo yakakanyaza omutima gwe, abantu n’atabakkiriza kugenda.
