Exodus 4

1 And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.

At si Moises ay sumagot at nagsabi, Datapuwa't, narito, hindi nila paniniwalaan ako, ni didinggin ang aking tinig sapagka't kanilang sasabihin, Ang Panginoon ay hindi napakita sa iyo.

2 And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.

At sinabi sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Ano iyang nasa iyong kamay? At kaniyang sinabi, Isang tungkod.

3 And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it.

At kaniyang sinabi, Ihagis mo sa lupa. At kaniyang inihagis sa lupa, at naging isang ahas; at si Moises ay tumakas sa harap ng ahas.

4 And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail: (and he put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a rod in his hand: )

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Iunat mo ang iyong kamay, at sunggaban mo sa buntot: (at kaniyang iniunat ang kaniyang kamay, at kaniyang hinawakan, at naging isang tungkod sa kaniyang kamay).

5 that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee.

Upang sila'y maniwala, na ang Dios ng iyong mga magulang, ang Dios ni Abraham, ang Dios ni Isaac, at ang Dios ni Jacob ay napakita sa iyo.

6 And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as [white as] snow.

At sinabi pa sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Ipasok mo ang iyong kamay, sa iyong sinapupunan. At kaniyang ipinasok ang kamay niya sa kaniyang sinapupunan: at nang kaniyang ilabas, ay narito, ang kaniyang kamay ay may ketong, na maputing parang niebe.

7 And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. (And he put his hand into his bosom again; and when he took it out of his bosom, behold, it was turned again as his [other] flesh.)

At kaniyang sinabi, Ipasok mo uli ang iyong kamay sa iyong sinapupunan. (At kaniyang ipinasok uli ang kamay niya sa kaniyang sinapupunan, at nang kaniyang ilabas sa kaniyang sinapupunan, ay narito, nagsauling gaya ng kaniyang dating laman).

8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.

At mangyayari, na kung sila'y hindi maniniwala sa iyo, ni makikinig sa tinig ng unang tanda, ay kanilang paniniwalaan ang tinig ng huling tanda.

9 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe even these two signs, neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land.

At mangyayari na kung sila'y hindi maniniwala sa dalawang tandang ito, ni hindi makikinig sa iyong tinig, ay kukuha ka ng tubig sa ilog, at iyong ibubuhos sa tuyong lupa, at ang tubig na iyong kukunin sa ilog ay magiging dugo sa tuyong lupa.

10 And Moses said unto the LORD, Oh Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.

At sinabi ni Moises sa Panginoon, Oh Panginoon, ako'y hindi marikit mangusap, kahit ng panahong nakaraan, kahit mula ng magsalita ka sa iyong lingkod: sapagka't ako'y kimi sa pangungusap at umid sa dila.

11 And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man’s mouth? or who maketh [a man] dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? is it not I the LORD?

At sinabi sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Sinong gumawa ng bibig ng tao? o sinong gumawa ng pipi, o bingi, o may paningin, o bulag sa tao? Hindi ba akong Panginoon?

12 Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt speak.

Ngayon nga'y yumaon ka, at ako'y sasaiyong bibig, at ituturo ko sa iyo kung ano ang iyong sasalitain.

13 And he said, Oh Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send.

At kaniyang sinabi, Oh Panginoon, magsugo ka, isinasamo ko sa iyo, sa pamamagitan ng kamay niyaong iyong susuguin.

14 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is there not Aaron thy brother the Levite? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.

At ang galit ng Panginoon ay nagningas laban kay Moises, at kaniyang sinabi, Wala ba si Aarong kapatid mo na Levita? Nalalaman kong siya'y makapagsasalitang mabuti. At saka, narito, siya'y lumalabas upang salubungin ka; at pagkakita niya sa iyo, ay matutuwa sa kaniyang puso.

15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put the words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.

At ikaw ay magsasalita sa kaniya, at iyong isasabibig niya ang mga salita; at ako'y sasaiyong bibig at sasakaniyang bibig, at aking ituturo sa inyo, kung ano ang inyong gagawin.

16 And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and it shall come to pass, that he shall be to thee a mouth, and thou shalt be to him as God.

At siya ang makikipagusap sa lagay mo sa bayan: at mangyayari na siya'y magiging sa iyo'y bibig, at ikaw ay magiging sa kaniya'y parang Dios.

17 And thou shalt take in thine hand this rod, wherewith thou shalt do the signs.

At tatangnan mo sa iyong kamay ang tungkod na ito, na iyong ipaggagawa ng mga tanda.

18 And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and said unto him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

At si Moises ay yumaon, at bumalik kay Jethro na kaniyang biyanan, at nagsabi sa kaniya, Pahintulutan mo akong yumaon, isinasamo ko sa iyo, at bumalik sa aking mga kapatid na nasa Egipto, at titingnan ko, kung sila'y nabubuhay pa. At sinabi ni Jethro kay Moises, Yumaon kang payapa.

19 And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt: for all the men are dead which sought thy life.

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises sa Madian, Yumaon ka, bumalik ka sa Egipto: sapagka't namatay na ang lahat ng tao, na nagmimithi ng iyong buhay.

20 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the rod of God in his hand.

At ipinagsama ni Moises ang kaniyang asawa at ang kaniyang mga anak, at kaniyang ipinagsasakay sa isang asno, at siya'y bumalik sa lupain ng Egipto: at tinangnan ni Moises ang tungkod ng Dios sa kaniyang kamay.

21 And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest back into Egypt, see that thou do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart, and he will not let the people go.

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Pagkabalik mo sa Egipto, iyong gawin nga sa harap ni Faraon ang lahat ng kababalaghan na aking itiniwala sa iyong kamay: datapuwa't aking papagmamatigasin ang kaniyang puso, at hindi niya tutulutang yumaon ang bayan.

22 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, my firstborn:

At iyong sasabihin kay Faraon, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, Ang Israel ay aking anak, aking panganay:

23 and I have said unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me; and thou hast refused to let him go: behold, I will slay thy son, thy firstborn.

At aking sinabi sa iyo, Pahintulutan mong ang aking anak ay yumaon, upang siya'y makapaglingkod sa akin; at ayaw mo siyang payaunin, narito, aking papatayin ang iyong anak, ang iyong panganay.

24 And it came to pass on the way at the lodging place, that the LORD met him, and sought to kill him.

At nangyari sa daan, sa dakong panuluyanan, na sinalubong ng Panginoon siya, at pinagsikapang patayin siya.

25 Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, Surely a bridegroom of blood art thou to me.

Nang magkagayo'y sumunggab si Sephora ng isang batong matalim, at pinutol ang balat ng masama ng kaniyang anak, at inihagis sa kaniyang paanan; at kaniyang sinabi, Tunay na ikaw sa akin ay isang asawang mabagsik.

26 So he let him alone. Then she said, A bridegroom of blood [art thou], because of the circumcision.

Sa gayo'y kaniyang binitiwan siya. Nang magkagayo'y kaniyang sinabi, Isang asawa kang mabagsik, dahil sa pagtutuli.

27 And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went, and met him in the mountain of God, and kissed him.

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Aaron, Pumaroon ka sa ilang na salubungin mo si Moises. At siya'y pumaroon, at nasalubong niya sa bundok ng Dios, at kaniyang hinagkan.

28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD wherewith he had sent him, and all the signs wherewith he had charged him.

At isinaysay ni Moises kay Aaron ang lahat ng salita ng Panginoon, na ipinagbilin sa kaniyang sabihin, at ang lahat ng tandang ipinagbilin sa kaniyang gawin.

29 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel:

At si Moises at si Aaron ay naparoon at tinipon ang lahat ng matanda sa mga anak ni Israel:

30 and Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.

At sinalita ni Aaron ang lahat ng salita na sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, at ginawa ang mga tanda sa paningin ng bayan.

31 And the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.

At ang bayan ay naniwala: at nang kanilang marinig na dinalaw ng Panginoon ang mga anak ni Israel, at kaniyang nakita ang kanilang kapighatian, ay iniyukod nga nila ang kanilang mga ulo at sumamba.
