< Exodus 6 >

1 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Now, shalt thou see, what I will do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand, shall he let them go, and with a strong hand, shall he drive them out from his land.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩũkuona ũrĩa ngwĩka Firaũni: Nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya-rĩ, nĩakamarekereria mathiĩ; na ningĩ nĩ tondũ wa guoko gwakwa kũrĩ hinya, nĩakamaingata moime bũrũri wake.”
2 And God spake unto Moses, —and said unto him, I, am Yahweh:
Ngai agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova.
3 I appeared, therefore, unto Abraham unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as GOD Almighty, —although, by my name Yahweh was I not made known to them;
Nĩ niĩ ndoimĩrĩire Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu ndĩ Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, no matiamenyire na rĩĩtwa rĩu rĩakwa Jehova.
4 Moreover also I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, —even the land of their sojournings wherein they sojourned.
O na nĩndathondekire kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao atĩ nĩngamahe bũrũri wa Kaanani, kũrĩa maatũũraga marĩ ageni.
5 Moreover also, I heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians, were holding in servitude, So then I remembered my covenant.
Na makĩria-rĩ, nĩnjiguĩte gũcaaya kwa andũ a Isiraeli, arĩa matuĩtwo ngombo nĩ andũ a Misiri, na nĩndirikanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nao.
6 Therefore say thou to the sons of Israel-I, am Yahweh, Therefore will I bring you forth from under the burdens of Egypt, And will deliver you out of their service, And will redeem you with a stretched-out arm, and with great judgments;
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, na nĩngamwaũra icooki rĩu mũigĩrĩirwo nĩ andũ a Misiri. Nĩngamuohora mũtige gũcooka gũtuĩka ngombo ciao, na nĩngamũkũũra ndambũrũkĩtie guoko na ciĩko nene cia ũtuanĩri ciira.
7 And will take you to myself for a people, And will become your God, —And ye shall know that, I Yahweh, am your God, who brought you forth from under the burdens of Egypt:
Ngaamuoya ta andũ akwa kĩũmbe, na nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu ũrĩa wamũrutire icooki-inĩ rĩa andũ a Misiri.
8 And I will bring you into the land as to which I uplifted my hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, —and will give it to you as an inheritance: I, am Yahweh.
Na nĩngamũtwara bũrũri ũrĩa ndeeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nyambararĩtie guoko atĩ nĩngaahe Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu. Nĩguo ngũmũhe mũwĩgwatĩre ũtuĩke wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
9 And Moses spake thus unto the sons of Israel, but they hearkened not unto Moses, through shortness of spirit, and through hard service.
Musa agĩkĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, no matiamũiguire nĩ ũrĩa maakuĩte ngoro nĩkũhinyĩrĩrio nĩ ũkombo.
10 And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
11 Go in speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
“Thiĩ wĩre Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri arekererie andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wake.”
12 And Moses spake before Yahweh, saying, —Lo! the sons of Israel have not hearkened unto me, how then shall Pharaoh, hear, I, also being of uncircumcised lips.
No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo andũ a Isiraeli matingĩnjigua-rĩ, nĩkĩ kĩngĩtũma Firaũni anjigue, kuona njaragia ngĩtondoiraga?”
13 Thus then did Yahweh speak unto Moses and unto Aaron, yea he gave them a charge unto the sons of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, for the bringing forth of the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
Ngai nĩacookire akĩaria na Musa na Harũni ũhoro wĩgiĩ andũ a Isiraeli na Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri na akĩmaatha marute andũ a Isiraeli moime bũrũri wa Misiri.
14 These, are the heads of their ancestral house: The sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel, Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi. These are the families of, Reuben.
Aya nĩo maarĩ atongoria a nyũmba ciao: Ariũ a Rubeni ũrĩa irigithathi rĩa Isiraeli maarĩ Hanoku na Palu, na Hezironi, na Karimi. Acio nĩo maarĩ mbarĩ cia Rubeni.
15 And, the sons of Simeon, Jemuel and Jamin and Ohad and Jachin and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitess. These, are the families of, Simeon.
Ariũ a Simeoni maarĩ Jemueli, na Jamini, na Ohadi, na Jakini, na Sohari, na Shauli ũrĩa warĩ mũriũ wa mũtumia Mũkaanani. Acio nĩo maarĩ mbarĩ cia Simeoni.
16 And, these, are the names of the sons of Levi by their generations, Gershon, and Kohath and Merari, And, the years of the life of Levi, were a hundred and thirty-seven years.
Maya nĩmo maarĩ marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Lawi kũringana na maandĩko mao: Gerishoni, na Kohathu, na Merari. Lawi aatũũrire muoyo mĩaka 137.
17 The sons of Gershon, Libni and Shimei by their families.
Ariũ a Gerishoni kũringana na mbarĩ ciao maarĩ Libini na Shimei.
18 And the sons of Kohath, Amram and Izhar, and Hebron and Uzziel. And the years of the life of Kohath, were a hundred and thirty-three years.
Ariũ a Kohathu maarĩ Amuramu, na Iziharu, na Hebironi, na Uzieli. Kohathu aatũũrire muoyo mĩaka 133.
19 And the sons of Merari, Mahli and Mushi. These, are the families of the Levites by their generations.
Ariũ a Merari maarĩ Mahali na Mushi. Acio nĩo maarĩ mbarĩ cia Lawi kũringana na maandĩko mao.
20 So then, Amram took Jochebed, his father’s sister to himself to wife, and she bare to him—Aaron and Moses. And, the years of the life of Amram, were a hundred and thirty-seven.
Amuramu nĩahikirie mwarĩ wa nyina na ithe wetagwo Jokebedi, ũrĩa wamũciarĩire Harũni na Musa. Amuramu aatũũrire muoyo mĩaka 137.
21 And the sons of Izhar, Korah and Nepheg, and Zichri.
Ariũ a Iziharu maarĩ Kora, na Nefegu, na Zikiri.
22 And the sons of Uzziel, Mishael and Elzaphan, and Sithri.
Ariũ a Uzieli maarĩ Mishaeli, na Elizafani, na Sithiri.
23 And Aaron took Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab, sister of Nahshon, to himself to wife, —and she bare to him—Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Harũni nĩahikirie Elisheba, mwarĩ wa Aminadabu, o ũrĩa warĩ mwarĩ wa nyina na Nahashoni, nake akĩmũciarĩra Nadabu na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
24 And the sons of Korah, Assir and Elkanah, and Abiasaph. These are the families of the Korahites.
Ariũ a Kora maarĩ Asiri, na Elikana, na Abiasafu. Acio nĩo mbarĩ cia Akora.
25 And Eleazar, son of Aaron took to himself [one] of the daughters of Putiel, to himself to wife, and she bare to him Phinehas. These, are the heads of the fathers of the Levites by their families.
Eleazaru mũrũ wa Harũni nĩahikirie mũirĩtu ũmwe wa Putieli, nake akĩmũciarĩra Finehasi. Acio nĩo maarĩ atongoria a nyũmba cia Alawii, o mbarĩ o mbarĩ.
26 The same, Aaron and Moses, —to whom said Yahweh, Bring ye forth the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, according to their hosts:
Harũni o ũcio, marĩ na Musa, nĩo meerirwo nĩ Jehova atĩrĩ, “Rutai andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri kũringana na ikundi ciao.”
27 They who were to speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring forth the sons of Israel out of Egypt: The same, Moses and Aaron.
Nĩo maarĩirie Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, ũhoro wa kũruta andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri. Maarĩ Musa o ũcio na Harũni.
28 Thus came it to pass, that on a certain day, Yahweh spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt.
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jehova aarĩirie Musa arĩ kũu bũrũri wa Misiri-rĩ,
29 So then Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying—I, am Yahweh: Speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, all that, I, am speaking unto thee.
aamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova. Ĩra Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri ũrĩa wothe ngũkwĩra.”
30 And Moses said before Yahweh, —Lo! I, am of uncircumcised lips, how then will Pharaoh hearken unto me?
No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Kuona njaragia ngĩtondoiraga-rĩ, Firaũni angĩkĩnjigua nĩkĩ?”
