Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now these are the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt (every man and his household came with Jacob):
1Wen natul Jacob su welul som nu Egypt, wi sou lalos pa:
2Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
2Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah,
3Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
3Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin,
4Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.
4Dan, Naphtali, Gad, ac Asher.
5All the souls who came out of Jacob’s body were seventy souls, and Joseph was in Egypt already.
5Pisen mwet inge nukewa su ma in fwil natul Jacob na suwohs, oasr ke mwet itngoul. Joseph, sie sin wen natul Jacob, el oasr tari in acn Egypt.
6Joseph died, as did all his brothers, and all that generation.
6Ke pulan pacl sac, Joseph ac mwet lel ac mwet in fwil sac nufon misa,
7The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.
7tusruktu, fahko lun mwet Israel inge arulana puseni ac kui oru elos oaclik acn nukewa in Egypt.
8Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph.
8Na oasr tokosra sasu se mutawauk in leumi acn Egypt, su tia etal Joseph.
9He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.
9El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Mwet Israel inge arulana puseni ac kui. Nga luman sensen elos ac ku liki kut.
10Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”
10Fin oasr mweun elos ac mau kupasryang nu sin mwet lokoalok lasr ac lain kut, ac elos ac ku in kaingla liki mutunfacl sesr. Kut enenu in akngusrikya suk sie inkanek in taranulos in tia puseni.”
11Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.
11Ouinge mwet Egypt sang kutu mwet kol lalos sifacna in akupayela orekma lalos. Mwet Israel inge pa musaela siti Pithom ac Rameses — siti lulap inge kalkalyak tuh in acn in karingin mongo ac kufwa nukewa nu sin tokosra.
12But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel.
12Tusruktu finne yokelik mwe keok ma mwet Egypt sang aktoasrye mwet Israel kac, a pisen mwet Israel puseni liki meet ac osralik fin acn uh. Mwet Egypt mutawauk in sangeng sin mwet Israel,
13The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,
13oru elos aktoasryela orekma lalos.
14and they made their lives bitter with hard service in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve.
14Elos akorekmayalos in orek brick mwe musa, oayapa kain in orekma nukewa inima uh, ac oru arulana upa nu selos.
15The king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah,
15Na tokosra Egypt el kaskas nu sin luo sin mutan akisus ma kasru mutan Hebrew. Ineltal pa Shiphrah ac Puah.
16and he said, “When you perform the duty of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the birth stool, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.”
16El fahk nu seltal, “Ke komtal ac akisusye mutan Hebrew uh, fin ac tulik mukul se, na unilya; fin ac tulik mutan se, lela elan moul.”
17But the midwives feared God, and didn’t do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive.
17Tusruktu mutan akisus inge eltal etu in sangeng sin God, oru eltal tia aksol tokosra, a eltal fuhlela tulik mukul uh in moul.
18The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and saved the boys alive?”
18Ouinge tokosra el sapla nu sin mutan akisus ah, ac siyuk seltal, “Efu komtal ku oru ange? Efu komtal ku fuhlela tulik mukul uh moul?”
19The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women aren’t like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife comes to them.”
19Eltal topuk, “Mutan Hebrew uh tia oana mutan Egypt uh, mweyen isus uh ma fisrasr se selos, oru tulik natulos isusla meet liki na mutan akisus uh sonolos.”
20God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.
20Ouinge God El oru wo nu sin mutan akisus inge, ac mwet uh puselik ac arulana ku.
21Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.
21Ke sripen mutan akisus inge mwet sangeng sin God, oru El sang in oasr pac tulik natultal.
22Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.”
22Na tokosra el sapelik nu sin mwet lal nukewa, “Tulik mukul Hebrew nukewa ma isusla, kowos sisla nu Infacl Nile, a lela tulik mutan uh in moul.”
