12For wen dem still small, na just small handful, and strangers for inside am, 13dem dey waka from one nation to anoda nation, from one kingdom go to anoda nation, 14e no allow anybody oppress dem; because of dem e warn kings say:
15“No touch di people wey I don anoint; no do my prophets any bad thing.”
16E call famine come di land and cut off all dia food. 17E don send one man go dia front—Joseph, wey dem sell as slave. 18Dem wound im leg with chain; dem put iron for im neck, 19till di time wey im word come happen, till di word of our Papa show say e correct. 20Di king send for am and comot am; di ruler of di people set am free. 21Di king make Joseph oga of im own house, ruler over everything wey e get, 22so Joseph fit direct di king im princes as e like and teach im elders wisdom.
23Den Israel come Egypt; Jacob live as stranger for di land of Ham. a a v23 ‘Land of Ham’ na old poetic name for Egypt (dem still use am for verse 27). 24And our Papa make im people born plenty well well, and make dem strong pass dia enemies. 25E turn dia heart make dem hate im people, make dem plan bad against im servants.
26E send Moses im servant, and Aaron wey e don choose. 27Dem do im signs among dem, im wonders for di land of Ham. 28E send darkness and make di land dark, and Moses and Aaron no rebel against im words. 29E turn dia water to blood and kill dia fish. 30Dia land full with frog, even inside di bedroom of dia kings. 31E talk, and plenty flies come, and small small insect full dia whole territory. 32E give dem hail instead of rain, and fire wey dey blaze for dia whole land. 33E knock down dia grapevine and fig tree and break di tree of dia country. 34E talk, and locust come, young locust wey person no fit count, 35and dem chop every plant for dia land and chop all di crop for dia farm. 36Den e kill all di firstborn for dia land, di first-fruit of all dia strength.
37Den e bring Israel comot with silver and gold, and nobody among im tribes stumble. 38Egypt glad wen dem comot, because fear of dem don fall upon Egypt. 39E spread cloud to cover dem, and fire to give light for night. 40Dem ask, and e bring quail, and satisfy dem with di bread of heaven. 41E open di rock, and water rush comot; e flow through di desert like river.
42Because e remember im holy promise to Abraham im servant. 43So e bring im people comot with joy, di people wey e choose with singing. 44E give dem di lands of di nations, and dem take over wetin oda people don work for, 45so dat dem go fit keep im statutes and obey im laws. Hallelujah!
