King James Version with Apocrypha
1Jethro, papa tumun mutan kial Moses ac el mwet tol lun Midian, el tuh lohng ke ma nukewa ma God El oru kacl Moses ac ke mwet lal mwet Israel ke LEUM GOD El kololosla liki acn Egypt.
1When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and that the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt;
2Ouinge Jethro el tuku nu yorol Moses, ac usalu Zipporah, mutan kial Moses su Moses el tuh folokunulla,
2Then Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,
3oayapa Gershom ac Eliezer, wen luo natul Zipporah. (Moses el tuh fahk, “Nga sie mwetsac in sie pacna facl,” pa oru el sang inen sie wen natul ah Gershom.
3And her two sons; of which the name of the one was Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land:
4El tuh oayapa fahk, “God lun papa tumuk El kasreyu moliyula ngan tia anwuki sin tokosra Egypt,” pa oru el sang inen tulik se ngia Eliezer.)
4And the name of the other was Eliezer; for the God of my father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh:
5Jethro el tuku, us mutan kial Moses ac wen luo natul nu yen mwesis, yen Moses el mutangan aktuktuk we ke eol mutal.
5And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God:
6El supwala kas nu sel Moses lah elos ac tuku,
6And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.
7ouinge Moses el illa som in osun nu sel, pasr ye mutal ac ngok mutal. Eltal siyuk sin sie sin sie lah moul laltal fuka, na eltal utyak nu in lohm nuknuk sel Moses.
7¶ And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other of their welfare; and they came into the tent.
8Moses el fahkang nu sel Jethro ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh oru nu sin tokosra ac nu sin mwet Egypt in pwanang moliyukla mwet Israel. El oayapa fahk nu sel ke ma upa nukewa ma sikyak nu selos inkanek lalos, ac fuka LEUM GOD El molelosla.
8And Moses told his father in law all that the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, and all the travail that had come upon them by the way, and how the LORD delivered them.
9Ke Jethro el lohng tari ma inge nukewa, el engan
9And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the LORD had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.
10ac fahk, “Kaksakin LEUM GOD , su molikowosla liki mwet Egypt ac tokosra lalos! Kaksakin LEUM GOD , su molela mwet lal liki moul in mwet kohs!
10And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD , who hath delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
11Inge nga etu lah LEUM GOD El fulat liki god nukewa, mweyen El molela mwet Israel ke pacl mwet Egypt uh oru koluk nu selos ke sripen angyang lun insialos.”
11Now I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they dealt proudly he was above them.
12Na Jethro el use soko kosro in fonna kisakinyuk in mwe kisa firir, wi pac mwe kisa saya in kisakinyuk nu sin LEUM GOD . Ac Aaron ac mwet kol lun Israel nukewa welul som mongo ke mwe mongo mutal inge ye mutun God.
12And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father in law before God.
13Ke len tok ah Moses el kafofo ke aksuwosye amei inmasrlon mwet uh, su tu ye mutal ke lotutang nwe ke fongeni.
13¶ And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening.
14Ke Jethro el liye ma nukewa Moses el oru nu sin mwet uh, el siyuk, “Meawin kom oru nu sin mwet uh inge? Efu ku kom mukena oru ma inge, ke mwet uh tu inge lotutang nwe ke fongeni soano pacl lalos yurum?”
14And when Moses’ father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even?
15Moses el topuk, “Mweyen mwet uh tuku nu yuruk in siyuk ke ma lungse lun God.
15And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God:
16Pacl se mwet luo ac ameila, eltal ac tuku nu yuruk, ac nga ac wotela lah su seltal pwaye, ac nga aketeya ma sap ac oakwuk lun God nu seltal.”
16When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.
17Na Jethro el fahk, “Tia pa ingan ma kom ac oru.
17And Moses’ father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
18Kom sifacna akmunasyekomla ac oayapa mwet lom inge. Orekma se inge arulana toasr nu sum in mukena oru.
18Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
19Inge, porongo kas in kasru luk nu sum, ac God El ac fah wi kom. Fal kom in aol mwet uh ye mutun God, ac sang mwe elya lalos nu sel.
19Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:
20Kom enenu in lotelos ma sap lun God, ac aketeya nu selos lah elos ac moul fuka, ac mea fal elos in oru.
20And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.
21Tusruktu, kom enenu in sulela kutu mwet ma fal ac pah in nunak tuh elos in mwet kol lun mwet uh — mwet kol nu fin tausin, fin foko, fin lumngaul ac fin singoul. Mwet inge elos in mwet sangeng sin God, su ku in lulalfongiyuk ac tia wela eyeinse lun mwet.
21Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:
22Lela elos in kulansap oana mwet nununku nu sin mwet ma elos leum fac uh ke pacl nukewa. Elos fah use ma upa nukewa nu yurum, tusruktu elos ku in sifacna wotela elya srisrik nukewa uh. Fin ouinge, ac fisrasr nu sum ke elos kasrekom in sruhk orekma toasr kunom inge.
22And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.
23Kom fin oru ouinge, oana ma God El sapkin, kom ac fah tia totola, ac mwet inge nukewa ac ku in folok nu acn selos ke inse misla mweyen elya lalos uh akwoyeyukla.”
23If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so , then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.
24Moses el insese nu ke kas in kasru lal Jethro
24So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.
25ac el sulela mwet ma fal ac pah in nunak sin mwet Israel nukewa tuh elos in mwet kol fin tausin, foko, lumngaul, ac singoul.
25And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
26In pacl sac fahla, mwet inge elos oru orekma lun mwet nununku nu sin mwet Israel. Ma yohk ac upa elos us nu yorol Moses, ac elos sifacna wotela amei srisrik.
26And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.
27Na Moses el wilkas nu sel Jethro, ac Jethro el folokla nu yen sel ah.
27¶ And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.
