1 Yetero wansembe wa ku Midiyani amenenso anali mpongozi wa Mose, anamva zonse zimene Mulungu anachitira Mose ndi anthu ake a Aisraeli ndi mmene Yehova anawatulutsira mʼdziko la Igupto.
Ankyɛ biara na Mose ase, Midian sɔfo Yetro, tee anwonwade a Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama ne nkurɔfo Israelfo ne Mose, ne sɛnea wayi wɔn afi Misraim asase so no.
2 Mose atamubweza Zipora, mkazi wake, Yetero, mpongozi wake anamulandira
Mose de ne yere Sipora kɔe no, nʼase Yetro gyee no
3 mwana wake wamkaziyo pamodzi ndi ana ake aamuna awiri. Mose anamupatsa mwana wachisamba dzina loti Geresomu popeza anati, “Ndakhala mlendo mʼdziko lachilendo.”
a na ne mmabarima baanu ka ne ho. Mose too ne babarima a na ɔyɛ nʼabakan no din Gersom a ɔkyerɛ ase se, “Mabɛyɛ ɔhɔho wɔ ananafo asase so.”
4 Ndipo mwana wake wachiwiri anamupatsa dzina loti Eliezara, pakuti anati, “Mulungu wa makolo anga anali thandizo langa. Iye anandipulumutsa ku lupanga la Farao.”
Na ne babarima a ɔto so abien no nso, ɔtoo ne din Elieser a ɔkyerɛ ase se “Mʼagyanom Nyankopɔn no yɛ me boafo. Ogyee me fii Farao afoa ano.”
5 Yetero, mpongozi wa Mose pamodzi ndi ana a Mose aamuna awiri ndi mkazi wake anabwera kwa Mose ku chipululu pa phiri la Mulungu kumene Mose anamanga misasa.
Yetro kɔsraa Mose. Ɔde Mose yere ne ne mmabarima baanu no kaa ne ho. Wodui no, na Mose ne nnipa no abɔ atenae wɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔw no ho.
6 Yetero anali atatumiza uthenga kwa Mose kuti, “Ine Yetero, mpongozi wako, ndikubwera ndi mkazi wako ndi ana ake awiri.”
Wɔka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Wʼase Yetro reba abɛsra wo. Wo yere ne wo mmabarima baanu no ka ne ho.”
7 Kotero Mose anatuluka kukakumana ndi mpongozi wake ndipo anawerama ndi kupsompsona. Atalonjerana anakalowa mu tenti
Mose sɔre kohyiaa nʼase. Ɔkotow no nidi mu gyee no fɛw so. Wokyiakyiaa wɔn ho wɔn ho na wɔkɔɔ Mose ntamadan mu.
8 Mose anafotokozera mpongozi wake zonse zimene Yehova anamuchita Farao ndi Aigupto chifukwa cha Israeli komanso zowawa zonse anakumana nazo mʼnjira. Mose anafotokozanso momwe Yehova anawapulumutsira.
Mose kaa nsɛm a asisi nyinaa kyerɛɛ nʼase no. Ɔkaa nea Awurade ayɛ atia Farao ne Misraimfo a ɔnam so agye Israelfo, ayi wɔn afi Misraim, asan ayi wɔn afi ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ mu no nso kyerɛɛ no.
9 Yetero anakondwa kwambiri atamva zabwino zonse zimene Yehova anachitira Aisraeli powapulumutsa mʼdzanja la Aigupto.
Yetro tee nea Awurade ayɛ ama Israel, ne titiriw no, sɛnea oyii wɔn fii Misraim no, nʼani gyee yiye.
10 Iye anati, “Alemekezeke Yehova amene wakupulumutsani mʼdzanja la Aigupto ndi Farao. Wapulumutsanso anthuwa mʼdzanja la Aigupto.
Yetro kae se, “Nhyira nka Awurade sɛ wagye mo afi Misraimfo ne Farao nsam, na wagye ɔman Israel nso.
11 Tsopano ndikudziwa kuti Yehova ndi wopambana milungu ina yonse, pakuti anachita izi kwa amene ananyoza Israeli.”
Afei, mahu sɛ Awurade yɛ ɔkɛse sen onyame foforo biara, efisɛ wayɛ eyi ama wɔn a wɔde ahantan di wɔn so no.”
12 Ndipo Yetero, mpongozi wa Mose anapereka nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe zina kwa Mulungu. Aaroni ndi akuluakulu onse a Israeli anabwera kudzadya chakudya pamodzi ndi mpongozi wa Mose pamaso pa Mulungu.
Yetro de ɔhyew afɔrebɔde bae, na ɔbɔɔ afɔre maa Onyankopɔn. Akyiri no, Aaron ne Israel mpanyimfo no baa Yetro nkyɛn. Wɔn nyinaa too nsa dii afɔreguan no wɔ Awurade anim.
13 Mmawa mwake, Mose anakhala pa mpando kuti aweruze milandu ya anthu. Anthu anayima momuzungulira kuyambira mmawa mpaka madzulo.
Ade kyee no, Mose tenaa ase fii anɔpa kosii anwummere tiee ntawntaw a asisi wɔ nnipa no mu.
14 Mpongozi wa Mose ataona zonse zimene iye amawachitira anthu anati, “Nʼchiyani chimene mukuwachitira anthuwa? Nʼchifukwa chiyani mulipo nokha woweruza, pamene anthu onsewa ayimirira kuyambira mmawa mpaka madzulo?”
Mose ase no huu brɛ a ɔrebrɛ nnipa no ho no, obisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wopɛ sɛ wo nko ara wudi dwuma kɛse yi a enti nnipa gyina wo so saa ara fi anɔpa kosi anwummere yi?”
15 Mose anamuyankha kuti, “Chifukwa anthuwa anabwera kwa ine kudzafunsa zimene Mulungu akufuna.
Mose buae se, “Nnipa no de akasakasa bi a asisi wɔn ntam bɛtoo mʼanim sɛ mimmisa Onyankopɔn hɔ akwankyerɛ.
16 Ngati munthu akangana ndi mʼbale wake, onse awiri amabwera kwa ine, ndipo ine ndimawaweruza. Ndimawawuzanso malamulo a Mulungu ndi malangizo ake.”
Sɛ ntawntaw bi ba wɔn ntam a, wɔba ma misiesie. Mekyerɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn mmara ne nʼapɛde.”
17 Mpongozi wa Mose anayankha kuti, “Zimene mukuchitazi si zabwino.
Nʼase no kae se, “Nea woreyɛ no nye.
18 Ntchitoyi ndi yayikulu kuposa mphamvu zanu. Inu simungathe kuyigwira nokha. Inu pamodzi ndi anthuwa amene amabwera kwa inu mudzatopa.
Worekum wo ho na sɛ wuwu a, nnipa yi bɛyɛ dɛn? Mose, adwuma yi so dodo sɛ wo nko ara wobɛyɛ.
19 Tsono tamverani ndikulangizeni, ndipo Mulungu akhale nanu. Inu muziwayimirira anthuwa pamaso pa Mulungu, ndipo mikangano yawo muzibwera nayo kwa Iye.
Tie fo a merebetu wo yi na Onyankopɔn behyira wo. Kɔ so ara si nnipa no anan wɔ Onyankopɔn anim na fa wɔn haw to nʼanim.
20 Aphunzitseni mawu ndi malangizo a Mulungu. Aphunzitseni mmene ayenera kukhalira ndi zimene ayenera kuchita.
Kyerɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn akwan a wɔmfa so ntena ase.
21 Koma sankhani amuna odziwa ntchito yawo, anthu owopa Mulungu, anthu odalirika amene amadana ndi kupeza phindu mwachinyengo. Tsono muwayike kuti akhale oyangʼanira anthu motere: atsogoleri a anthu 1,000, ena a anthu 100, ena a anthu 50 ndi ena a anthu khumi.
Na hwehwɛ nnipa bi a wɔyɛ nyamesurofo na wɔyɛ nokwafo a wɔmpɛ adanmudegye, na wɔn mu baako biara nyɛ nnipa apem so otemmufo. Ɛsɛ sɛ saa onipa no nya atemmufo du hyɛ nʼase na wɔn mu baako biara ahwɛ nnipa ɔha so. Na wɔn ase no, wobeyi atemmufo baanu a wɔbɛhwɛ nnipa aduonum so, na wɔn nso, atemmufo baanum bɛhyɛ wɔn mu biara ase na wɔatu nnipa du fo.
22 Tsono amenewa aziweruza anthu nthawi zonse. Mlandu uliwonse waukulu azibwera nawo kwa inu, koma mlandu waungʼono aziweruza okha. Izi zidzachititsa kuti ntchito yanu ipepuke, popeza mudzagwira ntchito mothandizana.
Ma saa nnipa yi nni wɔn ho ni na wonni nokware daa. Asɛm biara a ɛho hia anaa ɛkyere adwene no, wɔmfa mmra wʼanim. Wɔn ankasa nhwɛ nka nsɛm nketenkete a ɛbɛba wɔn anim no. Sɛ wofa saa kwan yi so a, adwuma no bɛyɛ mmerɛw ama wo, efisɛ woakyekyɛ nnwuma no ama wɔn.
23 Ngati mutsatira malangizowa monga mmene Mulungu wakulamulirani ndiye kuti simudzafowoka ndipo anthu onsewa adzapita kwawo mu mtendere.”
Sɛ wutie afotu no na Onyankopɔn nso pene so a, wubetumi agyina asɛm biara ano na asomdwoe aba.”
24 Mose anamvera mpongozi wake ndi kuchita zonse zimene iye ananena.
Mose tiee nʼase afotu no dii so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
25 Iye anasankha amuna odziwa bwino ntchito zawo ndipo anawayika kuti akhale atsogoleri, oyangʼanira anthu motere: atsogoleri a anthu 1,000, ena a anthu 500, ena a anthu makumi asanu ndi ena a anthu khumi.
Oyiyii nnipa pa a wɔwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa de wɔn yɛɛ atemmufo—apem apem, ɔha ɔha, aduonum aduonum ne du du.
26 Iwowa ankaweruza anthu nthawi zonse. Milandu yovuta ankabwera nayo kwa Mose, koma yosavuta ankayiweruza okha.
Na wobuu ɔman no atɛn bere nyinaa mu. Wɔde nsɛm akɛse no maa Mose na wɔn nso dii nsɛm nketenkete no.
27 Kenaka Mose analola kuti mpongozi wake, Yetero anyamuke kubwerera ku dziko la kwawo.
Akyiri no, Mose gyaa nʼase kwan ma ɔkɔɔ ne kurom.
