1. 1LUGAwo Mukama n’alagira Musa nti,BSBBSB: Then the LORD said to Moses,
2. 2LUG“Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri bawetemu nga boolekera Pikakirosi, bakube eweema zaabwe okumpi ne Pikakirosi, wakati wa Migudooli n’ennyanja. Musiisire ku lubalama lw’ennyanja nga mwolekedde Baali Zefoni.BSBBSB: “Tell the Israelites to turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. You are to encamp by the sea, directly opposite Baal-zephon.
3. 3LUGFalaawo abaana ba Isirayiri ajja kuboogerako nti, ‘Babulubuutira mu nsi yaffe, n’eddungu libazingizza.’BSBBSB: For Pharaoh will say of the Israelites, ‘They are wandering the land in confusion; the wilderness has boxed them in.’
4. 4LUGNzija kukakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, alyoke abawondere. Naye ndyefunira ekitiibwa okuva ku bye ndikola Falaawo n’eggye lye lyonna; n’Abamisiri balitegeera nga nze Mukama.” Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakola bwe batyo.BSBBSB: And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart so that he will pursue them. But I will gain honor by means of Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD.” So this is what the Israelites did.
5. 5LUGKabaka w’e Misiri bwe yategeera ng’Abayisirayiri baddukidde ddala, Falaawo n’abakungu be ne bejjusa, ne bagamba nti, “Kiki kino kye tukoze, okuleka Abayisirayiri ababadde batukolera ne bagenda?”BSBBSB: When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds about them and said, “What have we done? We have released Israel from serving us.”
6. 6LUGBw’atyo n’ateekateeka eggaali lye erisikibwa embalaasi, n’eggye ly’anaagenda nalyo.BSBBSB: So Pharaoh prepared his chariot and took his army with him.
7. 7LUGYatwala amagaali lukaaga agasingira ddala obulungi, n’agattako n’amagaali amalala gonna agaali mu Misiri, n’abalwanyi abaduumizi nga be bagavuga.BSBBSB: He took 600 of the best chariots, and all the other chariots of Egypt, with officers over all of them.
8. 8LUGMukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo Kabaka w’e Misiri, n’agoberera abaana ba Isirayiri. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakwata olugendo lwabwe nga tebaliiko gwe batya.BSBBSB: And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt so that he pursued the Israelites, who were marching out defiantly.
9. 9LUGAbamisiri ne babawondera: embalaasi zonna, n’amagaali gonna aga Falaawo agasikibwa embalaasi, n’abeebagadde embalaasi, n’eggye lye, ne babasanga nga basiisidde ku lubalama lw’ennyanja okumpi ne Pikakirosi, nga boolekedde Baali Zefoni.BSBBSB: The Egyptians—all Pharaoh’s horses and chariots, horsemen and troops—pursued the Israelites and overtook them as they camped by the sea near Pi-hahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon.
10. 10LUGFalaawo bwe yasembera, abaana ba Isirayiri ne balengera Abamisiri nga babagoberera, ne batya nnyo. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne balaajaanira Mukama.BSBBSB: As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up and saw the Egyptians marching after them, and they were terrified and cried out to the LORD.
11. 11LUGNe bagamba Musa nti, “Mu Misiri entaana tezaaliyo, kyewava otuleeta tufiire wano mu ddungu? Lwaki watuggya mu Misiri n’ojja otuyisa bw’oti?BSBBSB: They said to Moses, “Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us into the wilderness to die? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
12. 12LUGBwe twali mu Misiri tetwakugamba nti, ‘Tuveeko, tuleke tukolere Abamisiri?’ Kubanga okukolera Abamisiri kyandibadde waddeko okusinga okufiira mu ddungu.”BSBBSB: Did we not say to you in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
13. 13LUGMusa n’addamu abantu nti, “Temutya, munywere, mujja kulaba obulokozi Mukama bw’anaabaleetera olwa leero. Kubanga Abamisiri abo be mulaba kaakano, temuliddayo nate kubalaba emirembe gyonna.BSBBSB: But Moses told the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the LORD’s salvation, which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians you see today, you will never see again.
14. 14LUGMukama ajja kubalwanirira. Mmwe musirike busirisi.”BSBBSB: The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
15. 15LUGMukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Lwaki okaabirira nze? Lagira abaana ba Isirayiri bakwate olugendo lwabwe.BSBBSB: Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward.
16. 16LUGWanika omuggo gwo, ogolole n’omukono gwo ku nnyanja, amazzi ogaawulemu, abaana ba Isirayiri bayite wakati mu nnyanja kyokka nga batambulira ku ttaka kkalu.BSBBSB: And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.
17. 17LUGNange nzija kukakanyaza emitima gy’Abamisiri, bayingirire ennyanja nga babagoberera. Ndyoke nefunire ekitiibwa okusinziira ku bye nnaakola Falaawo, n’amaggye ge, n’amagaali ge, n’abeebagadde embalaasi.BSBBSB: And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them. Then I will gain honor by means of Pharaoh and all his army and chariots and horsemen.
18. 18LUGAbamisiri nabo banaategeera nga nze Mukama, nga nefunidde ekitiibwa: okusinziira ku bye nnaakola Falaawo n’amagaali ge, n’abasajja be abeebagadde embalaasi.”BSBBSB: The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I am honored through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”
19. 19LUGAwo malayika wa Katonda eyali akulembera abaana ba Isirayiri n’akyuka n’abadda emabega; n’empagi ey’ekire ne yejjulula okuva mu maaso gaabwe, n’eyimirira emabega waabwe:BSBBSB: And the angel of God, who had gone before the camp of Israel, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from before them and stood behind them,
20. 20LUGBw’etyo n’ebeera wakati w’abaana ba Isirayiri n’eggye ly’Abamisiri. Ekiro, ekire ne kireeta ekizikiza ku ludda lw’Abamisiri, naye ne kireeta omuliro okumulisa oludda lw’Abayisirayiri; ekiro kyonna ne wataba ggye lisemberera linnaalyo.BSBBSB: so that it came between the camps of Egypt and Israel. The cloud was there in the darkness, but it lit up the night. So all night long neither camp went near the other.
21. 21LUGAwo Musa n’agolola omukono gwe ku nnyanja; Mukama n’asindika ku nnyanja embuyaga ez’amaanyi ezaava ebuvanjuba, ne zigobawo amazzi ekiro kyonna, ne lufuuka lukalu, ng’amazzi gayawuddwamu.BSBBSB: Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the LORD drove back the sea with a strong east wind that turned it into dry land. So the waters were divided,
22. 22LUGAbaana ba Isirayiri ne bayita wakati mu nnyanja nga batambulira ku ttaka ekkalu, ng’amazzi gakoze ekisenge ku ludda lwabwe olwa ddyo n’olwa kkono.BSBBSB: and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.
23. 23LUGAbamisiri ne babawondera ne bayingira wakati mu nnyanja n’amagaali ga Falaawo gonna, n’embalaasi ze, n’abasajja be abeebagadde embalaasi.BSBBSB: And the Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and horsemen—and followed them into the sea.
24. 24LUGAwo mu makya ennyo nga tebunnalaba, Mukama n’atunuulira eggye ly’Abamisiri ng’ali mu mpagi ey’ekire n’omuliro, n’atandika okulibonyaabonya.BSBBSB: At morning watch, however, the LORD looked down on the army of the Egyptians from the pillar of fire and cloud, and He threw their camp into confusion.
25. 25LUGAmagaali gaabwe yagamaamulako zinnamuziga, ne gabakaluubirira okuvuga. Abamisiri n’okugamba ne bagamba nti, “Leka Abayisirayiri tubadduke! Kubanga Mukama alwanyisa Misiri ng’abalwanirira.”BSBBSB: He caused their chariot wheels to wobble, so that they had difficulty driving. “Let us flee from the Israelites,” said the Egyptians, “for the LORD is fighting for them against Egypt!”
26. 26LUGAwo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo ku nnyanja, amazzi gakomewo gaggweere ku Bamisiri, ne ku magaali gaabwe, ne ku basajja baabwe abeebagadde embalaasi.”BSBBSB: Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen.”
27. 27LUGBw’atyo Musa n’agololera ennyanja omukono gwe, obudde bwe bwakya n’ekomawo n’amaanyi, Abamisiri ne bagidduka nga balaba ejja; Mukama, Abamisiri n’abasaanyaawo wakati mu nnyanja.BSBBSB: So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to its normal state. As the Egyptians were retreating, the LORD swept them into the sea.
28. 28LUGAmazzi ne gakomawo ne gasaanikira amagaali n’abeebagadde embalaasi, n’eggye lya Falaawo lyonna eryali ligoberedde Abayisirayiri mu nnyanja. Tewaali n’omu ku bo eyawona.BSBBSB: The waters flowed back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the entire army of Pharaoh that had chased the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived.
29. 29LUGNaye abaana ba Isirayiri bo nga batambulira ku ttaka kkalu wakati mu nnyanja, amazzi nga gakoze ekisenge ku ludda lwabwe olwa ddyo ne ku lwa kkono.BSBBSB: But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.
30. 30LUGBwe kityo ku lunaku olwo Abayisirayiri Mukama n’abawonya Abamisiri. Abayisirayiri ne balaba Abamisiri ku lubalama lw’ennyanja nga bafudde.BSBBSB: That day the LORD saved Israel from the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the shore.
31. 31LUGAbayisirayiri ne balaba obuyinza obunene ennyo Mukama bwe yalaga ng’akola ku Bamisiri: abantu ne batya Mukama, ne bakkiriza Mukama n’omuweereza we Musa.BSBBSB: When Israel saw the great power that the LORD had exercised over the Egyptians, the people feared the LORD and believed in Him and in His servant Moses.
