Ankyɛre biara na Mose ase, Midian ɔsɔfoɔ Yetro, tee anwanwadeɛ a Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ ne Mose, ne sɛdeɛ Awurade ayi wɔn afiri Misraim asase so no.
2 Jetro ọgọ nwoke Mosis kpọọrọ Zipọra, nwunye Mosis, mgbe Mosis chụlara ya
Mose de ne yere Sipora kɔeɛ no, nʼase Yetro gyee no
3 na ụmụ ya ndị ikom abụọ. Aha nwa ya nke mbụ bụ Geshọm, nke pụtara, abụ m ọbịa na mba ọzọ.
a na ne mmammarima baanu ka ne ho. Mose too ne babarima a na ɔyɛ nʼabakan no edin Gersom a ɔkyerɛ aseɛ sɛ, “Mabɛyɛ ɔhɔhoɔ ananafoɔ asase so.”
4 Aha nwa nwoke nke abụọ bụ Elieza, nke bụ, Onyenwe anyị bụ onye inyeaka m. Nʼihi na mgbe Mosis mụrụ Elieza o kwuru sị, “Chineke nna m bụ onye inyeaka m, nʼihi na ọ napụtara m site na mma agha Fero.”
Na ne babarima a ɔtɔ so mmienu no nso, ɔtoo ne edin Elieser a ɔkyerɛ aseɛ sɛ “Mʼagyanom Onyankopɔn no yɛ me ɔboafoɔ. Ɔgyee me firii Farao akofena ano.”
5 Jetro, ọgọ nwoke Mosis, bịakwutere ha nʼime ọzara. O dutere ụmụ ndị ikom Mosis abụọ na nwunye Mosis. Nʼoge ahụ, Mosis na ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha nʼakụkụ ugwu Chineke.
Yetro kɔsraa Mose. Ɔde Mose yere ne ne mmammarima baanu no kaa ne ho. Wɔduruiɛ no, na Mose ne nnipa no abɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no ho.
6 O ziri Mosis ozi sị, “Mụ bụ Jetro ọgọ gị nwoke bịakwutere gị, nwunye gị na ụmụ gị abụọ sokwa m.”
Wɔka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Wʼase Yetro reba abɛsra wo. Wo yere ne wo mmammarima baanu no ka ne ho.”
7 Nʼihi ya, Mosis gara zute ọgọ ya nwoke, kpọọ isiala nye ọgọ ya, sutu ya ọnụ. Emesịa, ọ kpọbatara ha nʼime ụlọ ikwu ya. Jetro na ọgọ ya Mosis kwurịtara okwu, jụọ ihe banyere otu ihe si agara ibe ha.
Mose sɔre kɔhyiaa nʼase. Ɔkotoo no anidie mu gyee no fɛ so. Wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛdeɛ wɔn apɔ mu te. Afei, wɔkɔɔ Mose ntomadan no mu kɔtoaa wɔn amanneɛdie so.
8 Mosis kọọrọ nna nwunye ya ihe niile Onyenwe anyị mere Fero na ndị Ijipt niile nʼihi ndị Izrel. Ọ kọkwaara ya banyere ihe ndakwasị niile dakwasịrị ha nʼime ọzara, na otu Onyenwe anyị si napụta ha.
Mose kaa nsɛm a asisie nyinaa kyerɛɛ nʼase no. Ɔkaa deɛ Awurade ayɛ atia Farao ne Misraimfoɔ a ɔnam so agye Israelfoɔ, ayi wɔn afiri Misraim, asane ayi wɔn afiri ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ mu no nso kyerɛɛ no.
9 Jetro soro Mosis ṅụrịa ọṅụ nke ukwuu nʼihi ihe niile Onyenwe anyị meere ndị Izrel, na otu o siri napụta ha site nʼaka ndị Ijipt.
Yetro tee deɛ Awurade ayɛ ama Israel, ne titire no, sɛdeɛ ɔyii wɔn firii Misraim no, nʼani gyee yie.
10 Jetro kwuru sị, “Onye a gọziri agọzi ka Onyenwe anyị bụ. Onye napụtara unu site nʼaka ndị Ijipt na site nʼaka Fero.
Yetro kaa sɛ, “Nhyira nka Awurade sɛ wagye mo afiri Misraimfoɔ ne Farao nsam, na wagye ɔman Israel nso.
11 Ugbu a, amaara m na Onyenwe anyị kachasị chi ndị ọzọ niile elu, nʼihi na ọ zọpụtara ndị ya site nʼaka ndị Ijipt ndị sitere na mpako ha meso Izrel mmeso.”
Afei, mahunu sɛ Awurade yɛ kɛse sene onyame biara, ɛfiri sɛ, wagye ne nkurɔfoɔ afiri Misraimfoɔ ahantanfoɔ ne atirimuɔdenfoɔ nsam.”
12 Jetro, nna nwunye Mosis chụọrọ Chineke aja nsure ọkụ na aja ndị ọzọ. Emesịa, Erọn na ndị okenye Izrel bịara soro Mosis na ọgọ ya nwoke rie ihe nʼihu Chineke.
Yetro de ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ baeɛ na ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Onyankopɔn. Akyire no, Aaron ne Israel mpanimfoɔ no baa Yetro nkyɛn. Wɔn nyinaa too nsa dii afɔreduane no wɔ Awurade anim.
13 Nʼụbọchị nke ọzọ ya, Mosis bịara nọdụ ala ikpere ndị mmadụ ikpe. Igwe mmadụ nọgidere Mosis site nʼụtụtụ ruo nʼanyasị.
Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, Mose tenaa ase firii anɔpa kɔsii anwummerɛ tiee nsɛmpɔ a asisi wɔ nnipa no mu.
14 Ọgọ Mosis hụrụ ihe niile ọ na-emere ndị mmadụ, nke a mere na ọ jụrụ, “Gịnị bụ ihe nke a ị na-emere ndị a? Gịnị mere i ji nọdụ ala naanị gị, ndị a niile gbaa gị gburugburu malite nʼụtụtụ ruo nʼanyasị?”
Mose ase no hunuu brɛ a ɔrebrɛ nnipa no ho no, ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wopɛ sɛ wo nko ara wodi dwuma kɛseɛ yi a enti nnipa gyina wo so saa ara firi anɔpa kɔsi anwummerɛ yi?”
15 Mosis zara nna nwunye ya sị, “Nʼihi na ha bịara ịjụta m ihe si nʼaka Chineke.
Mose buaa sɛ, “Nnipa no de akasakasa bi a asisi wɔn ntam bɛtoo mʼanim sɛ memmisa Onyankopɔn akwankyerɛ.
16 Ọ bụrụ na esemokwu adịrị nʼetiti mmadụ ọbụla na ibe ya, ha na-abịakwute m, ka m kpebie ihe dị nʼetiti mmadụ na ibe ya. Ana m eme ka ha mata iwu na ụkpụrụ Chineke.”
Sɛ akyinnyeɛ bi ba wɔn ntam a, wɔba ma mesiesie. Mekyerɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn mmara ne nʼapɛdeɛ.”
17 Mgbe Jetro, nna nwunye Mosis, nụrụ ihe ndị a niile, ọ sịrị Mosis, “Ihe ị na-eme adịghị mma.
Nʼase no kaa sɛ, “Deɛ woreyɛ no nyɛ.
18 Ike ga-agwụ gị, gwụkwa igwe mmadụ ndị a. Ọrụ a ị na-arụ dị ukwuu karịa gị. Naanị gị agaghị ebuli ya.
Worekum wo ho na sɛ wowu a, nnipa yi bɛyɛ dɛn? Mose, adwuma yi so dodo sɛ wo nko ara wobɛyɛ.
19 Ugbu a, gee m ntị. M ga-adụ gị ọdụ, ka Chineke nọnyekwara gị. Ọ ga-adị mma ma ọ bụrụ na ị bụ onye na-anọchi anya ndị a nʼihu Chineke. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, i nwere ike iweta nsogbu niile ha nwere nʼihu Chineke.

20 Ihe ọzọ ị ga-eme bụ nke a: ị ga-akụziri ha iwu na ụkpụrụ Chineke, gosikwa ha ụzọ ha ga-esi bie ndụ, na ọrụ ha kwesiri ịrụ.

21 Ma site nʼetiti ndị a họpụta ndị ikom tozuru, ndị ikom na-atụ egwu Chineke, ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi na ndị kpọrọ uru nʼezighị ezi asị. Mee ha ndịisi na-achị imerime puku ndị mmadụ, ndịisi narị mmadụ, ndịisi iri mmadụ ise na ndịisi mmadụ iri.
Na hwehwɛ nnipa bi a wɔyɛ nyamesurofoɔ na wɔyɛ nokwafoɔ a wɔmpɛ adanmudegyeɛ, na wɔn mu baako biara nyɛ nnipa apem so ɔtemmufoɔ.

22 Mee ka ha bụrụ ndị ikpe nye ndị mmadụ oge niile. Nye iwu ka ha na-ewetara gị okwu dịkarịsịrị ike, ma na-ekpe ikpe gbasara okwu dị mfe na ndị ọzọ niile dị iche iche. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ndị ikpe ndị ahụ ga-enyere gị aka ime ka ibu arọ gị dị mfe.

23 Ọ bụrụ na ị ga-eme ihe niile ndị a, ọ bụrụkwa na Chineke ekwenye, ị ga-enwe ike nagide nsogbu niile. Mmadụ niile ga-ewere udo na ọṅụ birikwa.”
Sɛ wotie afotuo no na Onyankopɔn nso pene so a, wobɛtumi agyina asɛm biara ano na asomdwoeɛ aba.”
24 Mosis gere ntị nʼihe niile nna nwunye ya gwara ya. O mekwara ihe niile o kwuru.
Mose tiee nʼase afotuo no dii so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
25 O sitere nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel họpụta ndị kwesiri ekwesi mee ka ha bụrụ ndịisi. Ụfọdụ ka o mere ndịisi na-elekọta imerime puku mmadụ, ụfọdụ na-achị narị mmadụ, ụfọdụ, iri mmadụ ise, ụfọdụ, mmadụ iri.
Ɔyiyii nnipa pa a wɔwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa de wɔn yɛɛ atemmufoɔ—apem apem, ɔha ɔha, aduonum aduonum ne edu edu.
26 Ha jere ozi dịka ndị ikpe nye ndị mmadụ nʼoge niile. Ha na-ewetara Mosis okwu niile siri ike, ma ha onwe ha na-ekpe ikpe banyere okwu nke dịkarịsịrị nta.

27 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis zilagara nna nwunye ya. Jetro laghachikwara nʼobodo nke aka ya.
Akyire no, Mose gyaa nʼase ɛkwan ma ɔkɔɔ ne kurom.
