Exodus 4

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.

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

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

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.

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 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).

And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:

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.

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

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.

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 snow.

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).

And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again as his other flesh.

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.

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 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.

And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also 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 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.

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

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?

And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?

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

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

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

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

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.

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? 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 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.

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

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.

And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God.

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

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

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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 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.

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

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

And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my 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.

And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn.

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

And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him, and sought to kill him.

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.

Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me.

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

So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art, because of the circumcision.

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.

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

And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent him, and all the signs which he had commanded him.

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

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

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

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

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.

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