< Mose 2 4 >
1 Ke Mose gblɔ be, “Womaxɔ dzinye ase o! Womawɔ nu si magblɔ na wo be woawɔ o. Woagblɔ be, ‘Yehowa meɖe eɖokui fia wò o!’”
UMosi waphendula wathi, “Pho bangayekela ukungikholwa loba ukulalela engikutshoyo bathi, ‘uThixo kazange abonakale kuwe’?”
2 Yehowa biae be, “Nu kae nye ema le asiwò?” Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Alẽkplɔla ƒe atikplɔe.”
UThixo wathi kuye, “Kuyini lokho okusesandleni sakho?” Waphendula wathi, “Yintonga.”
3 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖe asi le eŋu da ɖe anyigba.” Mose ɖe asi le eŋu da ɖe anyigba, eye wòtrɔ zu da; tete Mose si le egbɔ.
UThixo wathi, “Iphosele phansi emhlabathini.” UMosi wayiphosa phansi yasiphenduka yaba yinyoka, wayibalekela.
4 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Lé eƒe asike!” Mose lé da la ƒe asike, eye wògazu atikplɔ ɖe esi!
UThixo wasesithi kuye, “Yelula isandla sakho uyibambe ngomsila.” UMosi welula isandla wayibamba inyoka yasiphenduka yaba yintonga esandleni sakhe.
5 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Wɔ esia ekema woaxɔ dziwò ase, ekema woadze sii be Yehowa, wo fofowo, Abraham, Isak kple Yakob ƒe Mawue ɖe eɖokui fia wò nyateƒe.”
UThixo wathi, “Lokhu yikwenzela ukuthi bakholwe ukuthi uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyise, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe ubonakele kuwe.”
6 Azɔ Yehowa gblɔ be, “Tsɔ wò asi de wò axatome.” Eye Mose tsɔ eƒe asi de axatome. Esi wòɖe asi ɖa la, eƒe asi dze kpodɔ hefu kpĩi.
UThixo wabuye wathi, “Faka isandla sakho phakathi kwejazi lakho.” UMosi wasefaka isandla sakhe ejazini lakhe, kwathi lapho esesikhupha, sasesimhlophe njengongqwaqwane sesilobulephero.
7 Yehowa gagblɔ nɛ be, “Gatsɔ wò asi de wò axatome.” Esi wògawɔ esia, eye wògaɖe asi ɖa la, dɔvɔ̃ɖi la bu le eŋu; eƒe asi ganɔ abe tsã ene!
Wathi njalo, “Sibuyisele isandla sakho ejazini lakho.” UMosi wasifaka isandla sakhe ejazini lakhe, wathi esesikhupha sasesibuyele esimeni saso, sesifanana lejwabu lakhe.
8 Yehowa gblɔ be, “Ne womexɔ nukunu gbãtɔ dzi se o la, woaxɔ evelia dzi ase.
UThixo wasesithi, “Nxa bengayikukholwa loba bengananzi izibonakaliso zokuqala, mhlawumbe bazakholwa ezesibili.
9 Ne womeɖo to wò le dzesi eve siawo megbe o la, ekema ku tsi tso Nil tɔsisi la me kɔ ɖe anyigba ƒuƒui dzi, eye wòatrɔ azu ʋu.”
Kodwa nxa bengakholwa izibonakaliso lezi ezimbili loba bengakulaleli, uzathatha amanzi emfuleni uNayili uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo. Amanzi ozawathatha emfuleni azaphenduka abe ligazi emhlabathini owomileyo.”
10 Ke Mose ɖe kuku na Yehowa be, “O, nye Aƒetɔ, nyemeƒoa nu nyuie o. Nyemeƒo nu nyuie kpɔ o; nyemenye nuƒola nyui aɖeke fifia hã o, togbɔ be èƒo nu nam gɔ̃ hã, elabena nye aɖe metrɔna ɖe nya ŋu tututu o.”
UMosi wasesithi kuThixo, “Oh Thixo, ngixolele, angizange ngibe yisikhulumi kusukela emuva kuze kube lakhathesi ukhuluma lenceku yakho. Ngiyagagasa njalo ngilamalimi.”
11 Yehowa biae be, “Ame kae wɔ nuwo na amewo? Menye nye, Yehowae oa? Ame kae wɔ aɖetututɔ alo tokunɔ, alo nukpɔla, alo ŋkuagbãtɔ? Alo menye nye Yehowae oa?
UThixo wathi kuye, “Ngubani owapha umuntu umlomo? Ngubani omenza abe yisacuthe loba abe yisimungulu? Ngubani omenza abone loba abe yisiphofu? Akusimi uThixo na?
12 Azɔ la, yii, elabena makpe ɖe ŋuwò be nàƒo nu nyuie, eye magblɔ nu si nàgblɔ la na wò.”
Ngakho hamba, ngizakusiza ukuthi ukhulume njalo ngikufundise lokuthi uthini.”
13 Ke Mose gagblɔ be, “Aƒetɔ, meɖe kuku, ɖo ame bubu aɖe ɖa.”
Kodwa uMosi wathi, “Oh Thixo, ngicela uthume omunye ukuthi ayekwenza lokhu.”
14 Tete Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe Mose ŋu, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Enyo, nɔviwò Aron, Levitɔ la, ƒoa nu nyuie, egbɔna ava di wò le afi sia. Akpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔ ne ekpɔ wò,
UThixo wathukuthela, ulaka lwakhe lwavutha kuMosi, wathi, “Umfowenu u-Aroni, ongumLevi ke? Ngiyazi ukuthi uyenelisa ukukhuluma kuhle. Uvele usendleleni ukuzahlangana lawe, njalo inhliziyo yakhe izathokoza ukukubona.
15 eya ta magblɔ nu si nàgblɔ nɛ la na wò. Makpe ɖe mi ame evea ŋu be miaƒo nu nyuie, eye magblɔ nu si miagblɔ la na mi.
Uzakhuluma laye ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe. Ngizaliphathisa lobabili ukuthi likhulume njalo ngizalifundisa ukuthi lenzeni.
16 Eyae anɔ tewòƒe, eye wòaƒo nu na ameawo. Wò la, ànɔ nɛ abe Mawu ene,
Yena uzakukhulumela ebantwini, njalo kuzakuba sengani nguye ongumlomo wakho njalo kube angani wena unguNkulunkulu kuye.
17 gake tsɔ wò atikplɔ la ɖe asi ale be nàte ŋu awɔ nukunu siwo mefia wò la kplii.”
Kodwa phatha intonga le esandleni sakho ukuze wenze izimangaliso ngayo.”
18 Mose trɔ yi aƒe me; edzro nya la me kple toa, Yetro, hegblɔ nɛ be, “Meɖe kuku, ɖe mɔ nam matrɔ ayi nye ƒometɔwo gbɔ le Egipte ne makpɔe ɖa be wogale agbe mahã?” Yetro ɖo eŋu be, “Yi faa, nye yayrawo le yowòme.”
UMosi wasebuyela kuyisezala uJethro wathi kuye, “Bengicela ukubuyela ebantwini bakithi eGibhithe ukuthi ngiyebona kumbe balokhu besaphilile.” UJethro wathi kuye, “Hamba kuhle.”
19 Hafi Mose nadzo le Midian la, Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Trɔ nàyi Egipte, elabena ame siwo katã di be yewoawu wò la, ku xoxo.”
UThixo wayethe kuMosi eMidiyani, “Buyela eGibhithe, ngoba bonke abantu ababefuna ukukubulala sebafa.”
20 Ale Mose kplɔ srɔ̃a kple via ŋutsuviwo da ɖe tedzi dzi, eye wòdze mɔ yina ɖe Egipte. Elé “Mawu ƒe atikplɔ” la ɖe asi goŋgoŋgoŋ!
Ngakho uMosi wathatha umkakhe kanye lamadodana akhe, wabakhweza kubabhemi waqala uhambo lokubuyela eGibhithe. Wathatha intonga kaNkulunkulu wayiphatha ngesandla.
21 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Ne èɖo Egipte la, ele na wò be nàdo ɖe Farao ŋkume, eye nàwɔ nukunu siwo mena ŋusẽ wò be nàwɔ. Ke mana wòasẽ dzi me: maɖe asi le ameawo ŋu be woadzo o.
UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ekubuyeleni kwakho eGibhithe, bona ukuthi uyazenza zonke izimangaliso engikuphe amandla okuba uzenze phambi kukaFaro. Kodwa ngizakwenza inhliziyo yakhe ibe lukhuni ukuba angabavumeli abantu ukuthi basuke.
22 Ekema, ele na wò be nàgblɔ na Farao be, ‘Yehowa be, Israel dukɔ lae nye nye ŋutsu ŋgɔgbevi.
Uzakuthi kuFaro, ‘uThixo uthi u-Israyeli yindodana yami elizibulo,
23 Meɖoe na wò be nàna wòadzo aɖasubɔm, ke ègbe toɖoɖo. Kpɔ ɖa, mawu wò ŋgɔgbevi.’”
njalo ngakutshela ngathi, “Vumela indodana yami ihambe, ukuze iyengikhonza.” Kodwa wena wala ukuyivumela ukuba ihambe; ngakho ngizabulala indodana yakho elizibulo.’”
24 Esi Mose kple srɔ̃a kpakple wo viwo nɔ mɔa zɔm la, wotsi teƒe aɖe dɔ. Yehowa ɖe eɖokui fia Mose, eye wòdo ŋɔdzi nɛ be yeawui.
Kwathi besesendleleni, endlini yezihambi, uThixo wahlangana loMosi wafuna ukumbulala.
25 Ke Zipora tsɔ kpe ɖaɖɛ aɖe lã via ƒe aʋanuyi, eye wòtsɔe ka Mose ƒe afɔwo ŋu hegblɔ be, “Nyateƒee, ènye ʋuŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ nam.”
Kodwa uZiphora wayisoka indodana yakhe, wathatha isikhumba sakhona wasethinta inyawo zikaMosi ngaso. Wathi, “Impela wena ungumyeni wegazi.”
26 Ale Yehowa ɖe asi le eŋu. (Ɣe ma ɣie Zipora gblɔ be, “Ʋuŋugbetɔsrɔ̃,” eye nu si gblɔm wòle lae nye aʋatsotso.)
Ngakho uThixo wamyekela. (Ngalesosikhathi uZiphora wathi “umyeni wegazi,” esitsho ukusoka.)
27 Azɔ la, Yehowa gblɔ na Aron be, “Yi gbedzi ne nàkpe Mose.” Ale Aron zɔ mɔ yi Mawu ƒe to, Horeb gbɔ ɖado go Mose le afi ma, eye wògbugbɔ nu nɛ.
UThixo wathi ku-Aroni, “Hamba uye enkangala uhlangabezane loMosi.” Ngakho wasuka wayahlangana loMosi entabeni kaThixo wamanga.
28 Mose gblɔ nu siwo Yehowa ɖo na wo be woawɔ kple nya siwo woagblɔ la na Aron. Eƒo nu tso nukunu siwo woawɔ le Farao ŋkume la hã ŋu nɛ.
UMosi wamtshela u-Aroni konke uThixo ayemthume ukuthi akutsho, njalo langazo zonke izibonakaliso ezimangalisayo ayemlaye ukuba azenze.
29 Ale Mose kple Aron wotrɔ va Egipte. Wowɔ takpekpe kple Israel ƒe dumegãwo.
UMosi lo-Aroni bahamba bafika baqoqa bonke abadala bako-Israyeli,
30 Aron gblɔ nu siwo Yehowa gblɔ na Mose la na wo, eye Mose wɔ nukunuawo wokpɔ.
u-Aroni wasebatshela konke uThixo ayekutshele uMosi. Wenza lezibonakaliso phambi kwabantu,
31 Dumegãwo xɔe se be Yehowae ɖo wo ɖa nyateƒe. Esi wose be Yehowa va kpɔ wo ɖa, kpɔ woƒe nublanuitɔnyenye, eye wòɖo ta me be yeaɖe wo la, wode ta agu, eye wosubɔe.
bakholwa. Kwathi besizwa ukuthi uThixo uyabakhathalela, njalo wayelubonile usizi lwabo, bakhothama phansi bamkhonza.
