< Mose 2 19 >
1 Le Israelviwo ƒe dzodzo le Egipte ƒe ɣleti etɔ̃ megbe la, wova ɖo Sinai gbedzi.
Ngosuku olufanayo, emva kwezinyanga ezintathu abantu bako-Israyeli besuke eGibhithe bafika enkangala yeSinayi.
2 Esi woho tso Refidim la, wova ɖo Sinai gbegbe la, eye Israel ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe afi ma le to la te.
Sebesukile eRefidimu bangena enkangala yeSinayi bamisa amathente abo phansi kwentaba.
3 Mose lia to la yi Mawu gbɔ, eye Yehowa yɔe tso to la dzi gblɔ nɛ be, “Gblɔ na Yakob ƒomeawo, eye ale nàɖe gbeƒãe na Israelviwoe nye esi,
Lapho-ke uMosi wakhuphukela kuNkulunkulu entabeni, uThixo esentabeni wabiza uMosi wathi kuye, “Tshela abantu bendlu kaJakhobe labantu bako-Israyeli, uthi
4 ‘Miawo ŋutɔ miekpɔ nu si mewɔ Egiptetɔwo kple ale si mekplɔ mi va ɖokuinye gbɔ abe ɖe metsɔ mi ɖe hɔ̃ ƒe aʋalãwo dzi ene.
‘Lina ngokwenu lizibonele engikwenze eGibhithe lokuthi ngilithwele ngamaphiko okhozi ngaliletha lapha kimi.
5 Azɔ la, ne miaɖo tom, eye miawɔ nye nubabla dzi la, mianye nye ame tiatiawo le xexemedukɔwo katã dome, elabena tɔnyee nye xexea me katã.
Ngakho-ke lingangilalela ligcine isivumelwano sami lani lizakuba ligugu kimi phakathi kwezizwe zonke. Lanxa umhlaba wonke ungowami,
6 Gawu la, mianye nunɔlawo ƒe fiaɖuƒe kple dukɔ kɔkɔe aɖe nam.’ Nya siawo nàgblɔ na Israelviwo.”
lina kimi lizakuba ngumbuso wabaphristi lesizwe esingcwele.’ Yiwo amazwi okumele uwakhulume kwabako-Israyeli.”
7 Esi Mose trɔ gbɔ tso to la dzi la, eyɔ kplɔlawo ƒo ƒu, eye wògblɔ nya si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la na wo.
UMosi wabuyela ebantwini, wafika wabuthanisa abakhokheli babantu wabatshela okwakutshiwo nguThixo.
8 Wo katã wolɔ̃ ɖe edzi kple gbe ɖeka be, “Míawɔ nu sia nu si wòadi tso mía si be míawɔ.” Mose gblɔ nya si ameawo gblɔ la na Yehowa.
Bonke bavuma ngalizwi linye bathi, “Sizakwenza konke uThixo athe sikwenze.” UMosi wambikela uThixo okwakukhulunywe ngabantu.
9 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Mele gbɔwò va ge le lilikpo dodo aɖe me, ale be ameawo ŋutɔ nate ŋu ase nye gbe ne mele nu ƒom na wò, ekema woaxɔ dziwò ase ɣe sia ɣi.” Eye Mose gblɔ dukɔ la ƒe nyawo na Yehowa.
UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Ngizakuza kini nginjengeyezi elimnyama ukuze abantu bangizwe ngikhuluma lawe. Ngakho ngezikhathi zonke bazakholwa kuwe.” UMosi watshela uThixo okwakutshiwo ngabantu.
10 Eye Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Yi dukɔ la gbɔ, eye nàkpɔ be ameawo le klalo na nye vava. Kɔ wo ŋuti egbe kple etsɔ, eye nàna woanya woƒe awuwo.
Ngakho uThixo wathi kuMosi, “Buyela ebantwini ubangcwelise lamhla lakusasa. Batshele bagezise izigqoko zabo
11 Ekema ŋkeke etɔ̃a gbe la, maɖi tso Sinai to la dzi le ame sia ame ŋkume.
kuthi ngelanga lesithathu libe selilungiselele ngoba ngalelolanga uThixo uzakwehlela entabeni yeSinayi abantu bonke bekhangele.
12 Ɖo liƒo siwo ŋu ameawo magbɔ o la na wo. Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Mikpɔ nyuie be mialia to la alo aka asi eŋu gɔ̃ hã o. Ame sia ame si da le se sia dzi la dze na ku.
Yenzela abantu imingcele malungana lentaba, ubatshele uthi, ‘Limukani! Lingakhweli entabeni, kumbe ukufika phansi kwayo. Lowo ozasondela entabeni uzabulawa.’
13 Ame aɖeke maka asi sedzidala sia ŋu o, ke boŋ woaƒu kpee alo woatee kple da wòaku. Woawɔ amegbetɔwo kple lãwo siaa nenema.’ Migate ɖe toa ŋu kura o va se ɖe esime miase lãdzokpẽ aɖe ƒe ɖiɖi zi ɖeka sesĩe. Ekema miaƒo ƒu ɖe to la te!”
Ngempela uzatshaywa ngamatshe kumbe acitshwe ngemitshoko kodwa angathintwa ngesandla. Akukhathalekile ukuthi ngumuntu loba yinyamazana akusoze kuvunyelwe ukuphila. Bazakhwela entabeni kuphela nxa uphondo lwenqama selukhale isikhathi eside.”
14 Ale Mose ɖi tso to la dzi va ameawo gbɔ. Ekɔ wo ŋuti, eye wonya woƒe awuwo.
Ngemva kokuba uMosi esehlile entabeni waya ebantwini wabangcwelisa basebegezisa lezigqoko zabo.
15 Mose gblɔ na wo be, “Midzra ɖo na Mawu ƒe vava le ŋkeke eve megbe. Migadɔ kple nyɔnu aɖeke o.”
Wathi ebantwini, “Lungiselelani ilanga lesithathu. Zilani omkenu.”
16 Le ŋkeke etɔ̃lia ƒe ŋdi la, dzi de asi gbeɖeɖe kple dzokeke me ŋɔdzitɔe. Lilikpo dodo gã aɖe va dze ɖe to la dzi. Kpẽ aɖe ɖi sesĩe ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe abe lãdzokpẽ ene, eye ame sia ame dzo nyanyanya kple vɔvɔ̃.
Ekuseni ngelanga lesithathu kwaba lomdumo lombane othuthumelisayo, leyezi elikhulukazi lehlela phezu kwentaba, kwezwakala lomsindo omkhulu wecilongo. Abantu bonke ezihonqweni besaba, baqhaqhazela.
17 Mose kplɔ wo tso woƒe agbadɔwo me be woado go Mawu; ena wotsi tsitre ɖe to la te.
UMosi wasebakhokhela ebasusa emathenteni ebasa kuNkulunkulu. Bafika bema ngaphansi kwentaba.
18 Dzudzɔ tsyɔ Sinai to blibo la dzi, elabena Yehowa ɖi ɖe edzi le dzo ƒe nɔnɔme me. Dzudzɔ la yi dzi ʋĩi abe kpodzo gã aɖe ƒe dzudzɔ ene. To blibo la ʋuʋu kpekpekpe.
Intaba yonke iSinayi yembeswa yintuthu ngoba uThixo wehlela phezu kwayo ngesimo somlilo. Intuthu yathunqa ngamandla isiya phezulu kungathi iphuma emphongolweni.
19 Esi kpẽ la ƒe ɖiɖi ganɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi la, Mose ƒo nu, eye Mawu ɖo eŋu nɛ kple gbe sesẽ aɖe.
Njalo umsindo wecilongo waya ulokhu ukhula. UMosi wakhuluma, kwathi ilizwi likaNkulunkulu lamphendula.
20 Yehowa ɖi va Sinai to la tame. Eyɔ Mose be wòava to la dzi, eye Mose lia to la yi egbɔ.
UThixo wehlela phezu kwentaba iSinayi, wabizela uMosi khona. Ngakho uMosi wakhwela,
21 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Ɖi nàyi ameawo gbɔ, eye nàde se na wo be ame aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ agbɔ liƒoawo dzi o. Mele be woava afi sia, adze agbagba be yewoakpɔm o. Ame si ake atse la aku.
UThixo wasesithi kuye, “Buyela phansi uyexwayisa abantu ukuba bangaqali ukweqa imingcele ukuba babone uThixo ngoba bangafa ngobunengi.
22 Ele na nunɔla siwo ate ɖe Yehowa ŋu gɔ̃ hã be woakɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti; ne menye nenema o la, Yehowa atsrɔ̃ wo.”
Labaphristi abaya kuThixo kumele bazenze babengcwele, funa uThixo ababhubhise.”
23 Mose ɖo nya sia ŋu na Yehowa be, “Ameawo mava Sinai toa dzi o, elabena ède se na wo be womekpɔ mɔ ava o. Ègblɔ nam be maɖo liƒowo ƒo xlã to la, eye mana ameawo nanya be womekpɔ mɔ ada ata liƒoawo o, elabena wotso teƒe si le liƒoawo godo la ɖi na wò.”
UMosi wathi kuThixo, “Akulamuntu ongakhwela entabeni yeSinayi ngoba wena ngokwakho wathi bangakwenzi lokho. Uthe ngenze imingcele egombolozela intaba ngitshele abantu bangasondeli kuyo ngoba ingcwele.”
24 Ke Yehowa gagblɔ na Mose be, “Ɖi nàyi, eye nàkplɔ Aron ɖe asi vɛ. Mègaɖe mɔ be nunɔlawo kple ameawo nagbɔ liƒoawo dzi be yewoava afi sia o. Ne wotee kpɔ la, matsrɔ̃ wo.”
Kodwa uThixo wathi, “Yehla uyebuya lo-Aroni. Kodwa abaphristi labantu akumelanga ukuba beqe imingcele besiza lapho ngoba ngingabaphendukela.”
25 Ale Mose ɖi yi ameawo gbɔ, eye wògblɔ nya si Mawu gblɔ nɛ la na wo.
Ngakho uMosi wehla waya ebantwini wabatshela.
