Exodus 10 (MSY2020)

1Egha Ikiavɨra Itir God ua Moses mɨgei, “Nɨ mangɨ atrivimɨn gan. Kɨ kamaghsua ifonge, kɨ ua dɨgavir kuram gamir arazaraziba Isipian tongɨn dar amuam. Kamaghɨn kɨ atrivim ko an ingangarir gumaziba, me gamizɨma, men naviba gavgafi.Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his officials, that I may perform these miraculous signs of Mine among them,

2Kɨ kamaghɨn ifonge, ia gɨn uan boriba ko igiar boriba, me mɨkɨm suam, kɨ dɨgavir kuram gamir arazarazir kabagh amigha, tuavir kamɨn kɨ Isipia gamizɨma, me bar onganigha aghumsɨki. Kɨ kamaghɨn damightɨ, ia bar fogh suam, kɨ uabɨ kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God.”and that you may tell your children and grandchildren how severely I dealt with the Egyptians when I performed miraculous signs among them, so that all of you may know that I am the LORD.”

3Egha Moses ko Aron atrivimɨn bighan ghugha, a mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ikiavɨra Itir God, a Hibruian God, a ghaze, ‘Dughiar ruarimɨn iza datɨrɨkɨn, nɨ nan akam batoke. Nɨ uabɨ abɨragh nan apengan izan aghua, a? Nɨ nan gumazamizibar amamangatɨghtɨ me mangɨ, nan ziam fam.So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and told him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.

4Nɨ men amamangarɨghan aghuaghtɨ, gurumzaraghan kɨ odeziba amadaghtɨ, da nɨn kantri gizɨvagham.But if you refuse to let My people go, I will bring locusts into your territory tomorrow.

5Egh da bar avɨrasemegh, bar nguazim avaraghtɨ, nɨ nguazimɨn ganan kogham. Da bizir, amozir ofɨzir ekiar dagɨabar mɨn gariba, asɨghasɨghizir puvatɨziba bar da amegham. Me dagheba ko temer ian azenibar itiba sara, bar dar amɨ da gɨvagham.They will cover the face of the land so that no one can see it. They will devour whatever is left after the hail and eat every tree that grows in your fields.

6Egh da nɨn dɨpenir ekiaba ko nɨn ingangarir gumazibar dɨpeniba ko nɨn gumazamizibar dɨpeniba bar dagh izɨvagham. Nɨn afeziaba ko inaziba, bizir kurar katam, fomɨra iza datɨrɨghɨn, an ganizir puvatɨ, bizir kam bar ikuvigham.’ ” Egha Moses atrivim mɨkemegha ua ragha azenan ghu.They will fill your houses and the houses of all your officials and every Egyptian—something neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen since the day they came into this land.’” Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh’s presence.

7Ezɨ atrivimɨn ingangarir gumaziba kamaghɨn a mɨgei, “Dughiar ruarimɨn ikegha iza datɨrɨghɨn otogha, nɨ ua manmaghɨn dughiaba gumazir kam ateghtɨ an e gifarɨva osɨmtɨziba e danɨngam a? Nɨ Israelian gumazamiziba ateghtɨ me mangɨ, egh uan Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam fam. Nɨ ti gara fos ti? Isip bar ikufi.”Pharaoh’s officials asked him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the people go, so that they may worship the LORD their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt lies in ruins?”

8Ezɨ gumazir maba ghua ua Moses ko Aron inigha atrivim bagha ize. Ezɨ an aning mɨgei, “Ia mangɨ, Ikiavɨra Itir God ian God, an ziam fɨ. Kɨ foghasa, terara mangam?”So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. “Go, worship the LORD your God,” he said. “But who exactly will be going?”

9Ezɨ Moses a ikaragha ghaze, “E bar mangam, en boriba ko en gumazamizir ghuriba, en otariba ko guiviba, en sipsipba bar, memeba bar, ko bulmakauba bar. Guizbangɨra, e isar ekiam damuva, Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam fam.”“We will go with our young and old,” Moses replied. “We will go with our sons and daughters, and with our flocks and herds, for we must hold a feast to the LORD.”

10Ezɨ atrivim, Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam dɨbora akar gavgavim pamtemɨn mɨgɨa ghaze, “Kɨ ia ateghtɨ ia uan amiziba ko boriba inigh mangan kogham! Bar puvatɨgham! Kɨ kamaghɨn fo, ia arazir kuramɨn e damuasa.Then Pharaoh told them, “May the LORD be with you if I ever let you go with your little ones. Clearly you are bent on evil.

11Bar puvatɨgham! Gumazibara mangɨ Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam fam. Ia guizbangɨra kamaghsua ifonge.” Atrivim kamaghɨn mɨkemezɨ, an ingangarir gumaziba aning batoke.No, only the men may go and worship the LORD, since that is what you have been requesting.” And Moses and Aaron were driven from Pharaoh’s presence.

12Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn Moses mɨgei, “Nɨ uan dafarim ghufegh Isipɨn nguazim gisɨn anemadaghtɨ, odeziba izɨ. Egh da izɨva, bizir amozir ofɨzir ekiar dagɨabar mɨn gariba mɨsoghezir puvatɨziba, odeziba izɨ bar dar amegham.”Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt, so that the locusts may swarm over it and devour every plant in the land—everything that the hail has left behind.”

13Egha Moses uan asadivir aghorim ghufegha Isipɨn kantri gisɨn anemada. Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God amɨnim gamizɨma, an aruem anadi naghɨn ikegha iza, nguazim gisɨn vavɨra ikia ghua aruem ko dɨmagarim, ghua gɨfa. Ezɨ amɨnim tirazɨma, me garima, odeziba otivigha gɨfa.So Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and throughout that day and night the LORD sent an east wind across the land. By morning the east wind had brought the locusts.

14Egha odeziba bar avɨrasemegha iza Isipɨn danganiba bar da avara. Ezɨ fomɨra Isipia kamaghɨn odezir avɨrir okoruar kamaghɨn garir tabar ganizir puvatɨ, egh me gɨn ua dar ganighan kogham.The locusts swarmed across the land and settled over the entire territory of Egypt. Never before had there been so many locusts, and never again will there be.

15Odeziba nguazim bar anevarazɨ, nguazim bar pɨghizɨ, da amozir dagɨaba faragha irava asɨghasɨghizir puvatɨzir biziba ko, azenibar otivir biziba ko iter ovɨziba, odeziba bar da ame. Ezɨ temer dafarir gariba ko graziba ua Isipɨn kantri itir puvatɨ. Da bar gɨfa.They covered the face of all the land until it was black, and they consumed all the plants on the ground and all the fruit on the trees that the hail had left behind. Nothing green was left on any tree or plant in all the land of Egypt.

16Ezɨ atrivim zuamɨra Moses ko Aron bagha akam amadazɨ, aning izezɨ, an aning mɨgei, “Kɨ arazir kuram Ikiavɨra Itir God, ian God a gami, egha uaghan gua gami.Pharaoh quickly summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.

17Kɨ kamaghɨn ifonge, gua dughiar kamra ua nan arazir kuram gɨn amadagh. Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, guan God, gua a ko mɨkemeghtɨ, a bizir kurar na gasɨghasɨghasava amir kam na dama a inigh.”Now please forgive my sin once more and appeal to the LORD your God, that He may remove this death from me.”

18Ezɨ aning atrivim ategha ghua, Moses Ikiavɨra Itir God ko mɨgei.So Moses left Pharaoh’s presence and appealed to the LORD.

19Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God amɨnim giragha a gamizɨ, aruem ghuaghiri naghɨn amɨnir gavgavim otogha, odezibagh ivaragha Ongarir Aghevimɨn amadaghan ghu. Ezɨ odezitam ua Isipɨn itir puvatɨ.And the LORD changed the wind to a very strong west wind that carried off the locusts and blew them into the Red Sea. Not a single locust remained anywhere in Egypt.

20Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God uam atrivim gamizɨ, an navim gavgavizɨ, a Israelia ateghtɨ me mangan kogham.But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let the Israelites go.

21Ezɨ gɨn Ikiavɨra Itir God ua Moses mɨgɨa ghaze, “Nɨ uan dafarim ghufegh overiamɨn amadaghtɨ, mɨtarmer ekiam izɨ Isipɨn nguazim avaragh. Guizbangɨra, mɨtarmer kam an ganganim bar ighara. Nɨ an suighsɨ an suiragham, a bizir mamɨn mɨn mɨtemegha osemegha gavgafi.”Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that darkness may spread over the land of Egypt—a palpable darkness.”

22Ezɨ Moses uan dafarim ghufegha overiamɨn amadazɨ, mɨtarmer bar ekiam Isip avaragha ghua dughiar 3plan tu.So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and total darkness covered all the land of Egypt for three days.

23Ezɨ Isipian gumazamiziba uarir ganan ibura, egha dughiar kamɨn tav uan dɨpenim ataghizir puvatɨ. Ezɨ Israelia iti naghɨn mɨtarmeba puvatɨ.No one could see anyone else, and for three days no one left his place. Yet all the Israelites had light in their dwellings.

24Ezɨ atrivim ua Mosesɨn diazɨ, a izezɨ, an a mɨgei, “Ia mangɨ, Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam fɨ. Ian amiziba ko boriba ia ko mangam. Eghtɨ ian bulmakauba, ko sipsipba Isipɨn ikiam.”Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go, worship the LORD. Even your little ones may go with you; only your flocks and herds must stay behind.”

25Ezɨ Moses kamaghɨn an akam ikaragha ghaze, “Puvatɨ. E kamaghsua, nɨ e ateghtɨ e asɨzitaba inigh, dav suegh, da tueghtɨ da bar isi mɨghɨrigham. Egh arazir kamɨn Ikiavɨra Itir God, en God, e an ofa damuam. Kamaghɨn, nɨ en amamangatɨghtɨ, e asɨziba inigh mangam.But Moses replied, “You must also provide us with sacrifices and burnt offerings to present to the LORD our God.

26E bar uan asɨziba inigh da sara mangam. E mangɨ ofa damuamin dakozimɨn otivigh, Ikiavɨra Itir God, a en God, e a bagh ofa damusɨ tabav sogham. Kamaghɨn, e uan asɨzitam ateghtɨ a ikian kogham.”Even our livestock must go with us; not a hoof will be left behind, for we will need some of them to worship the LORD our God, and we will not know how we are to worship the LORD until we arrive.”

27Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God atrivimɨn navim gamizɨ, a bar gavgavigha, men amamangatɨghtɨ me mangan kogham.But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he was unwilling to let them go.

28Ezɨ atrivim Moses mɨgɨa ghaze, “Nɨ na gitagh! Kɨ ua nɨn ganan aghua. Nɨ kamaghɨn fogh, nɨ ua izɨ na batoghtɨ, dughiar kamra kɨ nɨ mɨsueghtɨ nɨ aremegham.”“Depart from me!” Pharaoh said to Moses. “Make sure you never see my face again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.”

29Ezɨ Moses oregha ghaze, “A dera, kɨ nɨ mɨgei moghɨra damuam. Kɨ ua izɨ nɨn ganan kogham.”“As you say,” Moses replied, “I will never see your face again.”
