Mose 2 8
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gayi Farao gbɔ, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si. Ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Buyela njalo kuFaro uthi kuye, ‘UThixo uthi, Vumela abantu bami bahambe bayengikhonza.
2 Ne ègbe la, maɖo akpɔkplɔwo ƒe hatsotso gãwo ɖa woava xɔ wò anyigba la dzi tso liƒo ɖeka dzi yi bubu dzi.
Ungala ngizathumela uhlupho lwamaxoxo elizweni lakho.
3 Akpɔkplɔwo asɔ gbɔ ɖe Nil tɔsisi la me. Woava ge ɖe wò fiasã la me, age ɖe wò xɔdɔme me, woage ɖe wò abati dzi, woage ɖe wò dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye woage ɖe abolokpowo kple amɔzewo me.
Umfula uNayili uzagcwala amaxoxo. Azangena esigodlweni sakho lasendlini yakho yokulala, lasembhedeni wakho; angene lezindlini zezikhulu zakho lezabantu bakho. Azagcwala ezindaweni zenu zokuphekela, lasemiganwini yenu yokuvubela izinkwa.
4 Akpɔkplɔawo ata le wò ŋutɔ, wò amewo kple ŋuwòmewo katã dzi.’”
Amaxoxo la azakuba phezu kwakho laphezu kwabantu bakho kanye lezikhulu zakho.’”
5 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be wòado eƒe atikplɔ ɖe tɔsisiwo, tɔʋuwo kple tawo katã dzi le Egipte.”
UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Tshela u-Aroni akhombele intonga emifuleni, lasezifudlaneni lasezizibeni zonke zaseGibhithe ukuze kube lamaxoxo ezindaweni zonke zelizwe.”
6 Aron wɔ nu sia, eye akpɔkplɔwo xɔ anyigba blibo la dzi.
U-Aroni welulela isandla sakhe emanzini eGibhithe, amaxoxo agcwala ilizwe lonke.
7 Ke akunyawɔlawo hã tsɔ woƒe ayemenuwɔwɔwo wɔ nenema, eye woawo hã na akpɔkplɔwo do ɖe anyigba la dzi.
Kodwa-ke izanuse lazo zenzanjalo ngemilingo yazo yensitha, zenza kwaba lamaxoxo elizweni lonke leGibhithe.
8 Tete Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron, heƒo koko na wo be, “Miɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa, ekema maɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woayi aɖasa vɔ nɛ.”
UFaro wabiza uMosi lo-Aroni wathi kubo, “Ncengani uThixo asuse amaxoxo kimi lebantwini bami, lami ngizavumela abantu bakhe ukuba bahambe bayenikela imihlatshelo kuThixo.”
9 Mose gblɔ be, “Ve nunye, eye nàgblɔ ɣeyiɣi si nàna woayi la nam ekema mado gbe ɖa be akpɔkplɔawo naku le ɣeyiɣi si dzi tututu nàtɔ asii la dzi. Akpɔkplɔawo aku le afi sia afi negbe le tɔsisi la me ko.”
UMosi wathi, kuFaro “Ngikutshiya kuwe ukuba ubeke isikhathi sokuthi ngikukhulekele wena lezikhulu zakho labantu bakho ukuze lina lezindlu zenu lilanyulelwe emaxoxweni, ngaphandle kwalawo azasala kuNayili.”
10 Farao ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔe etsɔ si gbɔna.” Mose yi edzi be, “Enyo, ava eme abe ale si nègblɔ ene, ekema ànya be, ame aɖeke mede Yehowa, mía Mawu la nu o.
UFaro wathi, “Kwenze kusasa.” UMosi wasesithi, “Kuzakuba njengokutsho kwakho ukuze ukwazi ukuthi kakho omunye onjengoThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.
11 Akpɔkplɔawo katã atsrɔ̃ negbe esiwo le tɔsisi la me ko.”
Amaxoxo azasuka kini lezindlini zenu lezezikhulu labantu benu abesesala emfuleni uNayili kuphela.”
12 Ale Mose kple Aron wodzo le Farao gbɔ. Mose ɖe kuku na Yehowa le akpɔkplɔ siwo wòɖo ɖa la ŋu.
UMosi lo-Aroni basuka kuFaro. UMosi wakhala kuThixo ukuba asuse amaxoxo ayewathumele kuFaro.
13 Yehowa wɔ ɖe ŋugbe si Mose do na Farao la dzi. Akpɔkplɔ kukuwo yɔ duwo godo kple aƒewo me siaa.
UThixo wenza lokho uMosi ayekucelile. Amaxoxo afa ezindlini lemagumeni lemasimini.
14 Woli kɔ wo gleglegle, eye wohe ʋeʋẽ sẽŋu aɖe va anyigba blibo la dzi.
Bawabuthelela aba zinqwabanqwaba; ilizwe lonke lanuka phu ngamaxoxo.
15 Ke esi Farao kpɔ be woɖe akpɔkplɔawo ɖa ko la, egasẽ dzi me, eye wògbe asiɖeɖe le ameawo ŋu abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
Kodwa uFaro ebona ukuthi udubo soluphungukile womisa inhliziyo yakhe wala ukulalela uMosi lo-Aroni njengokwakuvele kukhulunywe nguThixo.
16 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na Aron be, ‘Tsɔ wò atikplɔ ƒo anyigba, eye ke siwo katã le Egiptenyigba dzi la atrɔ azu muwo.’”
UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Tshela u-Aroni uthi, ‘Phakamisa intonga yakho utshaye uthuli lomhlabathi,’ uthuli luzaphenduka lube zintwala elizweni lonke laseGibhithe.”
17 Mose kple Aron wowɔ nu si Mawu ɖo na wo la. Tete muwo xɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi enumake, eye woƒo kɔ ɖe amewo kple woƒe lãwo katã dzi.
Benza njengokulaywa kwabo, kwathi u-Aroni eselule isandla sakhe ephethe intonga watshaya uthuli, intwala zahlasela abantu lezifuyo zabo. Uthuli lonke eGibhithe lwaphenduka lwaba zintwala.
18 Akunyawɔlawo dze agbagba be yewo hã yewoawɔ nu ma ke kple woƒe nunya ɣaɣlawo, gake azɔ ya la, womete ŋui o, eye muawo ɖu amewo kple lãwo siaa.
Izanuse lazo zazama ukwenza intwala ngemilingo yazo, kodwa zehluleka. Njengoba intwala zazisebantwini lezinyamazaneni,
19 Akunyawɔlawo gblɔ na Farao be, “Esia nye Mawu ƒe asinudɔ.” Ke Farao gasẽ dzi me kokoko: meɖo to wo o, abe ale si Yehowa gblɔe do ŋgɔ ene.
izanuse zathi kuFaro, “Lokhu kungumunwe kaNkulunkulu.” Kodwa inhliziyo kaFaro yayilukhuni, kabalalelanga njengoba uThixo wayevele etshilo.
20 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Fɔ etsɔ ŋdi kanya, nàdo go Farao esime wòyina tsi le ge le tɔsisi la me. Gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ɖe asi le nye amewo ŋu woayi aɖasubɔm.
UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Kusasa ubovuka ekuseni kakhulu uhlangabeze uFaro lapho esiya emanzini. Ubokuthi kuye, ‘Vumela abantu bami bahambe bayengikhonza.
21 Ne ègbe la, maɖo togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe ɖa woava Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, axɔ wò kple wò dumegãwo kple wò amewo ƒe aƒewo me. Ale Egiptetɔwo ƒe aƒewo me ayɔ fũu kple togbatowo, eye woayɔ anyigba la ƒe afi sia afi.
Ungala, ngizathumela umtshitshi wempukane kuwe, ebantwini bakho lezindlini zenu. Izindlu zabantu baseGibhithe zizagcwala impukane lomhlabathi ugcwale zona.
22 “‘Gake gbe ma gbe la, mana nuwo nato vovo le Gosenyigba dzi, afi si nye amewo le. Togbatowo ƒe ha manɔ afi ma ya o. Ale nànyae be nye Yehowa mele anyigba sia dzi,
Kodwa ngalolosuku akuyikuba njalo eGosheni lapho okuhlala khona abantu bami. Akuyikuba lemitshitshi yempukane khona. Ngakho uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo womhlaba wonke.
23 elabena made vovototo wò amewo kple nye amewo dome. Dzesidede siawo katã ava eme etsɔ.’”
Ngizakwenza kube lomahluko phakathi kwabantu bami labantu bakho. Lesisimangaliso sizakwenzakala kusasa.’”
24 Yehowa wɔ abe ale si wògblɔ ene. Togbatowo ƒe ha gã aɖe nye zi ge ɖe Farao ƒe fiasã la me kple eƒe dumegãwo ƒe aƒewo me, eye togbatoawo gblẽ nu le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi.
UThixo wenza njengoba wayetshilo. Umtshitshi wempukane ezinengi okwesabeka kakhulukazi zagcwala esigodlweni sikaFaro lasezindlini zezikhulu zakhe, lakulo lonke ilizwe laseGibhithe; zalitshabalalisa.
25 Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron enumake hegblɔ na wo be, “Enyo; miyi miasa vɔ na miaƒe Mawu la, gake misa vɔ la le afii, le anyigba sia dzi, migayi gbedzi o.”
UFaro wabiza uMosi lo-Aroni. Wathi kubo, “Hambani liyehlabela uNkulunkulu wenu likhonapha kulelilizwe.”
26 Ke Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Eya masɔ o! Egiptetɔwo lé fu míaƒe vɔsawo. Ne míasa vɔ na Yehowa míaƒe Mawu le woƒe ŋkuta la, woawu mí.
UMosi waphendula wathi, “Lokho akulunganga. Imihlatshelo yethu esinikela ngayo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu iyanengeka ebantwini beGibhithe. Singanikela ngeminikelo abayizondayo kambe kabayikusitshaya ngamatshe na?
27 Ele be míayi aɖanɔ gbedzi ŋkeke etɔ̃, asa vɔ na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la le afi ma, abe ale si wòɖo na mí ene.”
Kumele sithathe uhambo lwezizinsuku ezintathu siye enkangala siyemhlabela khonale uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu njengokusilaya kwakhe.”
28 Farao ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, maɖe mɔ na mi be miayi aɖasa vɔ na Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, gake migayi didiƒe sãa o. Azɔ la, miɖe abla miaɖe kuku na miaƒe Mawu la ɖe tanye.”
UFaro wathi, “Ngizalivumela lihambe liyenikela imihlatshelo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu enkangala, kodwa lingayi khatshana. Khathesi ngikhulekelani.”
29 Mose lɔ̃ ɖe edzi hegblɔ be, “Ne medzo le gbɔwò la, mabia Yehowa be wòana togbatoawo katã nabu. Ke mele nya gbem na wò be mègable mí azɔ, ado ŋugbe na mí be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu, eye emegbe nàgatrɔ susu o.”
UMosi waphendula wathi, “Ngizakuthi ngisanda kusuka ngikhuleke kuThixo, njalo kusasa umtshitshi wempukane uzasuka kuFaro, ezikhulwini zakhe lebantwini bakhe. Kodwa uFaro kangasikhohlisi futhi asuke angasavumeli abantu ukuba bahambe bayenikela imihlatshelo kuThixo.”
30 Mose dzo le Farao gbɔ, eye wòɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòaɖe togbatoawo ɖa.
Emva kwalokho uMosi wasuka kuFaro wasekhuleka kuThixo.
31 Eye Yehowa wɔ nu si Mose bia. Togbatoawo dzo le Farao kple eŋumewo kple eƒe amewo gbɔ; wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã meganɔ anyi o.
UThixo wenza lokho okwakucelwe nguMosi, umtshitshi wempukane wanyamalala kuFaro lezikhulu zakhe labantu bakhe, akwaze kwasala leyodwa.
32 Ke fifia gɔ̃ hã la, Farao gasẽ dzi me, eye melɔ̃ be yeaɖe asi le ameawo ŋu woadzo o.
Kodwa langalesosikhathi uFaro wenza inhliziyo yakhe yaba lukhuni kazabavumela abako-Israyeli ukuba bahambe.
