Exodus 1 - Listen Online

¹ NJẸ orukọ awọn ọmọ Israeli, ti o wá si Egipti pẹlu Jakobu ni wọnyi; olukuluku pẹlu ile rẹ̀.

¹ Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.

² Reubeni, Simeoni, Lefi, ati Judah;

² Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

³ Issakari, Sebuluni, ati Benjamini;

³ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

⁴ Dani ati Naftali, Gadi ati Aṣeri.

⁴ Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

⁵ Ati gbogbo ọkàn ti o ti inu Jakobu jade, o jẹ́ ãdọrin ọkàn: Josefu sa ti wà ni Egipti.

⁵ And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.

⁶ Josefu si kú, ati gbogbo awọn arakunrin rẹ̀, ati gbogbo iran na.

⁶ And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.

⁷ Awọn ọmọ Israeli si bisi i, nwọn si pọ̀si i gidigidi, nwọn si rẹ̀, nwọn si di alagbara nla jọjọ; ilẹ na si kún fun wọn.

⁷ And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.

⁸ Ọba titun miran si wa ijẹ ni Egipti, ti kò mọ́ Josefu.

⁸ Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.

⁹ O si wi fun awọn enia rẹ̀ pe, kiye si i, enia awọn ọmọ Israeli npọ̀, nwọn si nlagbara jù wa lọ:

⁹ And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:

¹⁰ Ẹ wá na, ẹ jẹ ki a fi ọgbọ́n ba wọn ṣe; ki nwọn ki o máṣe bisi i, yio si ṣe nigbati ogun kan ba ṣẹ̀, nwọn o dàpọ mọ́ awọn ọtá wa pẹlu, nwọn o ma bá wa jà, nwọn o si jade kuro ni ilẹ yi.

¹⁰ Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.

¹¹ Nitorina ni nwọn ṣe yàn akoniṣiṣẹ le wọn, lati fi iṣẹ wọn pọ́n wọn loju. Nwọn si kọ́ ilu iṣura fun Farao, Pitomu ati Ramesesi.

¹¹ Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.

¹² Bi nwọn si ti npọ́n wọn loju si i, bẹ̃ni nwọn mbisi i, ti nwọn si npọ̀. Inu wọn si bàjẹ́ nitori awọn ọmọ Israeli.

¹² But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.

¹³ Awọn ara Egipti si mu awọn ọmọ Israeli sìn li asìnpa:

¹³ And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:

¹⁴ Nwọn si fi ìsin lile, li erupẹ ati ni briki ṣiṣe, ati ni oniruru ìsin li oko mu aiye wọn korò: gbogbo ìsin wọn ti nwọn mu wọn sìn, asìnpa ni.

¹⁴ And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.

¹⁵ Ọba Egipti si wi fun awọn iyãgbà Heberu; orukọ ọkan ninu ẹniti ijẹ Ṣifra, ati orukọ ekeji ni Pua:

¹⁵ And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:

¹⁶ O si wipe, Nigbati ẹnyin ba nṣe iṣẹ iyãgbà fun awọn obinrin Heberu, ti ẹnyin ba ri wọn ni ikunlẹ; bi o ba ṣe ọmọkunrin ni, njẹ ki ẹnyin ki o pa a; ṣugbọn bi o ba ṣe ọmọbinrin ni, njẹ on o yè.

¹⁶ And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.

¹⁷ Ṣugbọn awọn iyãgbà bẹ̀ru Ọlọrun, nwọn kò si ṣe bi ọba Egipti ti fi aṣẹ fun wọn, nwọn si da awọn ọmọkunrin si.

¹⁷ But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.

¹⁸ Ọba Egipti si pè awọn iyãgbà na, o si wi fun wọn pe, Ẽṣe ti ẹnyin fi ṣe irú nkan yi ti ẹnyin si da awọn ọmọkunrin si?

¹⁸ And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?

¹⁹ Awọn iyãgbà si wi fun Farao pe, nitoriti awọn obinrin Heberu kò ri bi awọn obinrin Egipti; nitoriti ara yá wọn, nwọn a si ti bí ki awọn iyãgbà to wọle tọ̀ wọn lọ.

¹⁹ And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.

²⁰ Nitorina Ọlọrun ṣe rere fun awọn iyãgbà na: awọn enia na si mbisi i, nwọn si di alagbara koko.

²⁰ Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

²¹ O si ṣe, nitoriti awọn iyãgbà bẹ̀ru Ọlọrun, on si kọle fun wọn.

²¹ And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.

²² Farao si paṣẹ fun gbogbo awọn enia rẹ̀, wipe, Gbogbo ọmọkunrin ti a bí on ni ki ẹnyin gbé jù sinu odò, gbogbo awọn ọmọbinrin ni ki ẹnyin ki o dasi.

²² And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.
