< Exodus 3 >

1 Forsothe Moises kepte the scheep of Jetro, `his wyues fadir, preest of Madian; and whanne he hadde dryue the floc to the ynnere partis of deseert, he cam to Oreb, the hil of God.
Zvino Mozisi akanga achifudza makwai aJeturo tezvara wake, muprista weMidhiani, uye akatungamirira makwai kurutivi rwuri kure mugwenga akasvika kuHorebhi, gomo raMwari.
2 Forsothe the Lord apperide to hym in the flawme of fier fro the myddis of the buysch, and he seiy that the buysch brente, and was not forbrent.
Ikoko, mutumwa waJehovha akazviratidza kwaari mumarimi omoto aiva mugwenzi. Mozisi akaona kuti kunyange zvazvo gwenzi rakanga richipfuta, rakanga risingatsvi.
3 Therfor Moyses seide, Y schal go and schal se this greet siyt, whi the buysch is not forbrent.
Saka Mozisi akafunga akati, “Ndichaenda apo ndinoona chishamiso ichi, kuti seiko gwenzi risingatsvi.”
4 Sotheli the Lord seiy that Moises yede to se, and he clepide Moises fro the myddis of the buysch, and seide, Moyses! Moises! Which answeride, Y am present.
Jehovha akati aona kuti akanga aendako kuti andoona, Mwari akadana kwaari kubva mugwenzi akati, “Mozisi! Mozisi!” Uye Mozisi akati, “Ndiri pano hangu.”
5 And the Lord seide, Neiye thou not hidur, but vnbynde thou the scho of thi feet, for the place in which thou stondist is hooli lond.
Mwari akati, “Usaswedera pedyo. Bvisa shangu dzako nokuti nzvimbo yaumire itsvene.”
6 And the Lord seide, Y am God of thi fadir, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. Moises hidde his face, for he durste not biholde ayens God.
Ipapo akati, “Ndini Mwari wababa vako, Mwari waAbhurahama, Mwari waIsaka naMwari waJakobho.” Uye Mozisi akafukidza chiso chake, nokuti akanga achitya kutarisa Mwari.
7 To whom the Lord seide, Y seiy the affliccion of my puple in Egipt, and Y herde the cry therof, for the hardnesse of hem that ben souereyns of werkis.
Jehovha akati, “Zvirokwazvo ndaona kutambudzika kwavanhu vangu muIjipiti. Ndanzwa kuchema kwavo nokuda kwavatariri vavo vamabasa, uye ndinoziva kutambudzika kwavo.
8 And Y knew the sorewe of the puple, and Y cam down to delyuere it fro the hondis of Egipcians, and lede out of that lond in to a good lond and brood, into a lond that flowith with milk and hony, to the places of Cananey, and of Ethei, of Amorrey, and of Feresei, of Euey, and of Jebusei.
Saka ndaburuka kuti ndivanunure vabve muruoko rwavaIjipita uye kuti ndivabudise munyika iyo ndivaise kunyika yakanaka uye yakakura, nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi, nzvimbo yavaKenani, vaHiti, vaAmori, vaPerezi, vaHivhi navaJebhusi.
9 Therfor the cry of the sones of Israel cam to me, and Y seiy the turment of hem, bi which thei ben oppressid of Egipcians.
Uye zvino kuchema kwavaIsraeri kwasvika kwandiri, uye ndaona nzira yavanotambudzwa nayo navaIjipita.
10 But come thou, I schal sende thee to Farao, that thou lede out my puple, the sones of Israel, fro Egipt.
Saka chienda, zvino, ndiri kukutuma kuna Faro kuti undobudisa vanhu vangu vaIsraeri kubva muIjipiti.”
11 And Moises seide to hym, Who am Y, that Y go to Farao, and lede out the sones of Israel fro Egipt?
Asi Mozisi akati kuna Mwari, “Ndini aniko ini kuti ndiende kuna Faro kuti ndinobudisa vaIsraeri kubva muIjipiti?”
12 And the Lord seide to Moises, Y schal be with thee, and thou schalt haue this signe, that Y haue sent thee, whanne thou hast led out my puple fro Egipt, thou schalt offre to God on this hil.
Uye Mwari akati, “Ndichava newe. Uye ichi chichava chiratidzo kwauri chokuti ndini ndakutuma: Paunenge wabudisa vanhu kubva muIjipiti, muchanamata Mwari pagomo rino.”
13 Moises seide to God, Lo! Y schal go to the sones of Israel, and Y schal seie to hem, God of youre fadris sente me to you; if thei schulen seie to me, what is his name, what schal Y seie to hem?
Mozisi akati kuna Mwari, “Ko, kana ndikaenda kuvaIsraeri uye ndikanoti kwavari, ‘Mwari wamadzibaba enyu andituma kwamuri,’ uye ivo vakandibvunza kuti, ‘Zita rake ndiani?’ ipapo ndichavaudzeiko?”
14 The Lord seide to Moises, Y am that am. The Lord seide, Thus thou schalt seie to the sones of Israel, He that is sente me to you.
Mwari akati kuna Mozisi, “Ndiri Wandiri. Izvi ndizvo zvaunofanira kutaura kuvaIsraeri: ‘Ndiri’ andituma kwamuri.”
15 And eft God seide to Moises, Thou schalt seie these thingis to the sones of Israel, The Lord God of youre fadris, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, sente me to you; this name is to me with outen ende, and this is my memorial in generacioun and in to generacioun.
Mwari akatiwo kuna Mozisi, “Uti kuvaIsraeri, ‘Jehovha, Mwari wamadzibaba enyu, Mwari waAbhurahama, Mwari waIsaka naMwari waJakobho andituma kwamuri.’ Iri ndiro zita rangu nokusingaperi, zita randinofanira kurangarirwa naro kusvikira kuzvizvarwa zvose.
16 Go thou, gadere thou the eldere men, that is, iugis, of Israel, and thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord God of youre fadris apperide to me, God of Abraham, and God of Ysaac, and God of Jacob, and seide, Y visitynge haue visitid you, and Y seiy alle thingis that bifelden to you in Egipt;
“Enda undounganidza vakuru vavaIsraeri ugoti kwavari, ‘Jehovha, Mwari wamadzibaba enyu, Mwari waAbhurahama, Mwari waIsaka, naMwari waJakobho, akazviratidza kwandiri uye akati, “Ndakatarira pamusoro penyu uye ndikaona zvakanga zvichiitwa kwamuri muIjipiti.
17 and Y seide, that Y lede out you fro the affliccioun of Egipt in to the lond of Cananey, and of Ethei, and of Amorrei, and of Ferezei and of Euei, and of Jebusei, to the lond flowynge with mylk and hony.
Uye ndakavimbisa kukubudisai mukutambudzika kwenyu muIjipiti ndikuisei kunyika yavaKenani, navaHiti, vaAmori, vaPerezi, vaHivhi navaJebhusi, nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi.”’
18 And thei schulen here thi vois; and thou schalt entre, and the eldere men of Israel to the kyng of Egipt, and thou schalt seie to hym, The Lord God of Ebrews clepide vs; we schulen go the weie of thre daies in to wildirnesse, that we offre to oure Lord God.
“Vakuru vavaIsraeri vachakuteerera. Ipapo iwe navakuru vavaIsraeri munofanira kuenda kuna mambo weIjipiti munoti kwaari, ‘Jehovha Mwari wavaHebheru akasangana nesu. Regai tifambe rwendo rwamazuva matatu tiende kurenje kuti tindobayira kuna Jehovha Mwari wedu.’
19 But Y woot, that the kyng of Egipt schal not delyuere you that ye go, but bi strong hond;
Asi ndinoziva kuti mambo weIjipiti haasi kuzokutenderai kunze kwokunge ruoko rune simba rwamumanikidza.
20 for Y schal holde forthe myn hond, and I schal smyte Egipt in alle my marueils, whiche Y schal do in the myddis of hem; aftir these thingis he schal delyuere you.
Saka ndichatambanudza ruoko rwangu ndigorova vaIjipiti nezvishamiso zvose zvandichaita pakati pavo. Shure kwaizvozvo achakutenderai kuenda.
21 And Y schal yyue grace to this puple bifore Egipcians, and whanne ye schulen go out, ye schulen not go out voide;
“Uye ndichaita kuti vaIjipita vaitire vanhu ava nyasha, zvokuti pamunoenda hamuendi musina chinhu.
22 but a womman schal axe of hir neiyboresse and of her hoosteesse siluerne vesselis, and goldun, and clothis, and ye schulen putte tho on youre sones and douytris, and ye schulen make nakid Egipt.
Mukadzi mumwe nomumwe anofanira kukumbira muvakidzani wake nomukadzi upi zvake waagere naye mumba make, zvishongo zvesirivha nezvegoridhe uye nguo dzamuchapfekedza vanakomana venyu nevanasikana venyu. Uye saizvozvo muchapamba vaIjipita.”
