Exodus 6

1 But the LORD said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh, for because of My mighty hand he will let the people go; because of My strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”

1 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱلْآنَ تَنْظُرُ مَا أَنَا أَفْعَلُ بِفِرْعَوْنَ. فَإِنَّهُ بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ يُطْلِقُهُمْ، وَبِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ يَطْرُدُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ».

2 God also told Moses, “I am the LORD.

2 ثُمَّ كَلَّمَ ٱللهُ مُوسَى وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by My name the LORD I did not make Myself known to them.

3 وَأَنَا ظَهَرْتُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ بِأَنِّي ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْقَادِرُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. وَأَمَّا بِٱسْمِي «يَهْوَهْ» فَلَمْ أُعْرَفْ عِنْدَهُمْ.

4 I also established My covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as foreigners.

4 وَأَيْضًا أَقَمْتُ مَعَهُمْ عَهْدِي: أَنْ أُعْطِيَهُمْ أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ أَرْضَ غُرْبَتِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي تَغَرَّبُوا فِيهَا.

5 Furthermore, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered My covenant.

5 وَأَنَا أَيْضًا قَدْ سَمِعْتُ أَنِينَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْتَعْبِدُهُمُ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ، وَتَذَكَّرْتُ عَهْدِي.

6 Therefore tell the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians and deliver you from their bondage. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.

6 لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. وَأَنَا أُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَثْقَالِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَأُنْقِذُكُمْ مِنْ عُبُودِيَّتِهِمْ وَأُخَلِّصُكُمْ بِذِرَاعٍ مَمْدُودَةٍ وَبِأَحْكَامٍ عَظِيمَةٍ،

7 I will take you as My own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.

7 وَأَتَّخِذُكُمْ لِي شَعْبًا، وَأَكُونُ لَكُمْ إِلَهًا. فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي يُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَثْقَالِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ.

8 And I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD!’”

8 وَأُدْخِلُكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي رَفَعْتُ يَدِي أَنْ أُعْطِيَهَا لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ. وَأُعْطِيَكُمْ إِيَّاهَا مِيرَاثًا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

9 Moses relayed this message to the Israelites, but on account of their broken spirit and cruel bondage, they did not listen to him.

9 فَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى هَكَذَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِمُوسَى مِنْ صِغَرِ ٱلنَّفْسِ، وَمِنَ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ ٱلْقَاسِيَةِ.

10 So the LORD said to Moses,

10 ثُمَّ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

11 “Go and tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his land.”

11 «اُدْخُلْ قُلْ لِفِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ».

12 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “If the Israelites will not listen to me, then why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I am unskilled in speech?”

12 فَتَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «هُوَذَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِي، فَكَيْفَ يَسْمَعُنِي فِرْعَوْنُ وَأَنَا أَغْلَفُ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ؟»

13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge concerning both the Israelites and Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.

13 فَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ، وَأَوْصَى مَعَهُمَا إِلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَإِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ فِي إِخْرَاجِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.

14 These were the heads of their fathers’ houses: The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi. These were the clans of Reuben.

14 هَؤُلَاءِ رُؤَسَاءُ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ: بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ بِكْرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: حَنُوكُ وَفَلُّو وَحَصْرُونُ وَكَرْمِي. هَذِهِ عَشَائِرُ رَأُوبَيْنَ.

15 The sons of Simeon were Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. These were the clans of Simeon.

15 وَبَنُو شِمْعُونَ: يَمُوئِيلُ وَيَامِينُ وَأُوهَدُ وَيَاكِينُ وَصُوحَرُ وَشَأُولُ ٱبْنُ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيَّةِ. هَذِهِ عَشَائِرُ شِمْعُونَ.

16 These were the names of the sons of Levi according to their records: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Levi lived 137 years.

16 وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ بَنِي لَاوِي بِحَسَبِ مَوَالِيدِهِمْ: جِرْشُونُ وَقَهَاتُ وَمَرَارِي. وَكَانَتْ سِنُو حَيَاةِ لَاوِي مِئَةً وَسَبْعًا وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً.

17 The sons of Gershon were Libni and Shimei, by their clans.

17 اِبْنَا جِرْشُونَ: لِبْنِي وَشِمْعِي بِحَسَبِ عَشَائِرِهِمَا.

18 The sons of Kohath were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. Kohath lived 133 years.

18 وَبَنُو قَهَاتَ: عَمْرَامُ وَيِصْهَارُ وَحَبْرُونُ وَعُزِّيئِيلُ. وَكَانَتْ سِنُو حَيَاةِ قَهَاتَ مِئَةً وَثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً.

19 The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi. These were the clans of the Levites according to their records.

19 وَٱبْنَا مَرَارِي: مَحْلِي وَمُوشِي. هَذِهِ عَشَائِرُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بِحَسَبِ مَوَالِيدِهِمْ.

20 And Amram married his father’s sister Jochebed, and she bore him Aaron and Moses. Amram lived 137 years.

20 وَأَخَذَ عَمْرَامُ يُوكَابَدَ عَمَّتَهُ زَوْجَةً لَهُ. فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ هَارُونَ وَمُوسَى. وَكَانَتْ سِنُو حَيَاةِ عَمْرَامَ مِئَةً وَسَبْعًا وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً.

21 The sons of Izhar were Korah, Nepheg, and Zichri.

21 وَبَنُو يِصْهَارَ: قُورَحُ وَنَافَجُ وَذِكْرِي.

22 The sons of Uzziel were Mishael, Elzaphan, and Sithri.

22 وَبَنُو عُزِّيئِيلَ: مِيشَائِيلُ وَأَلْصَافَانُ وَسِتْرِي.

23 And Aaron married Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab and sister of Nahshon, and she bore him Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

23 وَأَخَذَ هَارُونُ أَلِيشَابَعَ بِنْتَ عَمِّينَادَابَ أُخْتَ نَحْشُونَ زَوْجَةً لَهُ، فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ نَادَابَ وَأَبِيهُوَ وَأَلِعَازَارَ وَإِيثَامَارَ.

24 The sons of Korah were Assir, Elkanah, and Abiasaph. These were the clans of the Korahites.

24 وَبَنُو قُورَحَ: أَسِّيرُ وَأَلْقَانَةُ وَأَبِيَأَسَافُ. هَذِهِ عَشَائِرُ ٱلْقُورَحِيِّينَ.

25 Aaron’s son Eleazar married one of the daughters of Putiel, and she bore him Phinehas. These were the heads of the Levite families by their clans.

25 وَأَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخَذَ لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ بَنَاتِ فُوطِيئِيلَ زَوْجَةً، فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ فِينَحَاسَ. هَؤُلَاءِ هُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ آبَاءِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بِحَسَبِ عَشَائِرِهِمْ.

26 It was this Aaron and Moses to whom the LORD said, “Bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their divisions.”

26 هَذَانِ هُمَا هَارُونُ وَمُوسَى ٱللَّذَانِ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَهُمَا: «أَخْرِجَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ» بِحَسَبِ أَجْنَادِهِمْ.

27 Moses and Aaron were the ones who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt in order to bring the Israelites out of Egypt.

27 هُمَا ٱللَّذَانِ كَلَّمَا فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ فِي إِخْرَاجِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ. هَذَانِ هُمَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ.

28 Now on the day that the LORD spoke to Moses in Egypt,

28 وَكَانَ يَوْمَ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ

29 He said to him, “I am the LORD; tell Pharaoh king of Egypt everything I say to you.”

29 أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ كَلَّمَهُ قَائِلًا: «أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. كَلِّمْ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ بِكُلِّ مَا أَنَا أُكَلِّمُكَ بِهِ».

30 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “Since I am unskilled in speech, why would Pharaoh listen to me?”

30 فَقَالَ مُوسَى أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ: «هَا أَنَا أَغْلَفُ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ. فَكَيْفَ يَسْمَعُ لِي فِرْعَوْنُ؟».
