Kwathi uJetro umpristi weMidiyani, uyisezala kaMozisi, esezwile konke uNkulunkulu ayemenzele khona uMozisi loIsrayeli isizwe sakhe, ukuthi iNkosi yayimkhuphile uIsrayeli eGibhithe,

uJetro uyisezala kaMozisi wathatha uZipora umkaMozisi emva kokumbuyisela kwakhe,

3 tare ne' mofavre'ararena znavreno e'ne. Mosese'a huno, Ru vahe'mofo mopafi emani'noe nehuno, agonesa mofavre'amofo agi'a Gesomu'e huno ante'ne.

kanye lamadodana akhe amabili; obizo lenye lalinguGereshoma, ngoba wathi: Ngangingowemzini elizweni lemzini;

4 Hagi Mosese'a anante mofavre'amofo agi'a Eliesa'e hu'ne. Na'ankure nafa'nimofo Anumzamo naza higeno, Isipi kini ne'mofo bainati kazimo'a onahe'negure hu'ne.

lebizo lenye linguEliyezeri, ngoba uNkulunkulu kababa wayelusizo lwami, wangikhulula enkembeni kaFaro.

5 Hagi anantera Mosese nenemo Jetro'a, Mosese nenarone mofavre'ararene nezamavreno, ka'ma mopafi Mosese'ma Anumzamofo agona me'nerega seli noma kino mani'nere vu'ne.

UJetro uyisezala kaMozisi wasesiza lamadodana akhe lomkakhe kuMozisi enkangala, entabeni kaNkulunkulu lapho ayemise khona inkamba.

6 Jetro'a amanage huno Mosesentega kea atrente'ne, Nagra neganemo'na aka'ane tare mofavreka'ane zamavare'na kagenaku neone.

Wasesithi kuMozisi: Mina, uyihlozala, uJetro, ngiza kuwe lomkakho lamadodana akhe amabili elaye.

7 Hagi Mosese'a ana nanekema nentahino vuno nenemo ome negeno, rena omenereno, otino antako hunenteno, hu frufra huntetege'ne, Mosese seli nompinka ufre'na'e.

UMozisi wasephuma ukumhlangabeza uyisezala, wakhothama, wamanga. Basebebuzana impilakahle; bangena ethenteni.

8 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a zamaza huno Isipi kini ne' Fero azampinti'ene Isipi vahe zamazampinti'ma zamahokeno zmavre fegi atre'nea nanekene, karanka zamavreno ne-ege'za maka knazama eri'za neageno, Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamazama huno e'nea naneke'a Mosese'a nenemo nera Jetrona asmi'ne.

UMozisi wasemlandisela uyisezala ngakho konke iNkosi eyayikwenzile kuFaro lakumaGibhithe ngenxa kaIsrayeli, yonke inhlupheko eyabehlela endleleni, lokuthi iNkosi yayibakhulule.

9 Anumzamo'ma knare'zantfa huno Isipi vahe'mokizmi zamazampinti zamahokeno zamavreno atirami'nea nanekea Jetro'a nentahino, tusi'a muse hu'ne.

UJetro wasethokoza ngakho konke okuhle iNkosi eyayikwenzele uIsrayeli, ukuthi yayimkhulule esandleni samaGibhithe.

10 Anante Jetro'a amanage hu'ne, Isipi vahe'mofo azampinti'ene Fero azampinti'ene Isipi vahe'mofo kvafinti'ma tamahokeno'ma tamavreno atirami'nea Ra Anumzamofona ra agi'a hentesga hue.

UJetro wasesithi: Ibusisiwe iNkosi elikhulule esandleni samaGibhithe lesandleni sikaFaro; eyakhulula lesisizwe ngaphansi kwesandla samaGibhithe.

11 Hagi menina nagra antahi'noe, mika havi anumzantamina agtereno, hihamu'ane Ra Anumzana tamage huno Agrake mani'ne. Na'ankure Isipi kva vahe'mo'zama zmavufga ra nehu'za, Agri vahe'ma Israeli vahe zamazeri haviza huzmante'naza vahera, zamazeri haviza hu'ne.

Khathesi sengisazi ukuthi iNkosi inkulu kulabo bonke onkulunkulu, ngoba endabeni abazigabisa ngayo yayiphezu kwabo.

12 Hagi Mosese nenemo Jetro'a tevefima kre fananema hu ofa erino, Anumzamofo Kresramana vunentegeno, anante Aroni zane, Israeli kva vahe'mo'za Jetro'ene emetru hu'za Anumzamofo avurera ne'zana ne'naze.

UJetro uyisezala kaMozisi wasethathela uNkulunkulu umnikelo wokutshiswa lemihlatshelo; kwasekusiza uAroni labo bonke abadala bakoIsrayeli ukudla isinkwa loyisezala kaMozisi phambi kukaNkulunkulu.

13 Hagi maseno nanterana Mosese'a keagama refkohu trate mani'nege'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za emetru hu'za regagi'za oti'nazageno, mago'magomofo nanekea refko huno nentahigeno, vuno kinaga ome ase'ne.

Kwasekusithi kusisa uMozisi wahlala ukwahlulela abantu; njalo abantu bema phambi kukaMozisi kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwahlwa.

14 E'inahu'zama Mosese'ma vahe'mokizmima hunezmantegeno, nenemo Jetro'a negeno amanage hu'ne, nankna'za ama vahe'mofona hunezmantane? Na'a agafare kagrakera mani'nenka nanekea refko nehankeno, ama vahe'mo'za oti'za mani'nazageno vuno kinaga omenese?

Kwathi lapho uyisezala kaMozisi esekubonile konke akwenzela abantu wathi: Iyini linto oyenza ebantwini? Uhlalelani wedwa, labantu bonke bemi kuwe kusukela ekuseni kuze kuhlwe?

15 Mosese'a ana kemofo nona'a amanage huno nenemo Jetrona asami'ne, Na'ankure zamagra Anumzamofo avesi'za antahinaku nagritera emetru hu'za mani'naze.

UMozisi wasesithi kuyisezala: Ngoba abantu beza kimi ukubuza kuNkulunkulu.

16 Hagi tava'ozmire'ma mani'naza vahe'enema zmagrama ha'frama nehu'za, nagrite azage'na zamaza hu'na naneke'zimia antahi'na refko nehu'na, Anumzamofo tra kene, kasegenena eri ama hu'na nezmasamue.

Nxa belendaba, beza kimi, njalo ngahlulele phakathi komuntu lomakhelwane wakhe, ngibazise izimiso zikaNkulunkulu lemithetho yakhe.

17 Higeno Jetro'a anage huno nenemo nera Mosesena asami'ne. E'inahu zama nehanana knare zana nosane.

Uyisezala kaMozisi wasesithi kuye: Into oyenzayo kayinhle.

18 Ama eri'zana kna'a me'neankinka, kagrakera e'origahane. Kagrane vahe'ka'anena tamage huno tamavesra hugahie.

Isibili uzazidlakaza, wena-ke lalababantu abalawe; ngoba linto inzima kakhulu kuwe, kawulakukwenza wedwa.

19 Hagi menina ke'ni'a antahio, nagra antahintahia kamisugeno Anumzamo'a kagrane manigahie. Kagra vahe'mokizmi zmagi erinka Anumzamofo avure mani'nenka, vahe'mo'zama ha'frama hanaza zana erinka Anumzamofo ome asamigahane.

Khathesi lalela ilizwi lami; ngizakweluleka, njalo uNkulunkulu abe lawe. Wena kawube ngowabantu phambi kukaNkulunkulu, wena ulethe izindaba kuNkulunkulu,

20 Ana nehunka kagra Anumzamofo tra kene kasegenena vahera rempi hunezminka, mani'zazimi eri fatgo hu'za kama nevu'za, eri'zama erisaza zamofona zmaveri hughane.

ubafundise izimiso lemithetho, ubazise indlela abamele bahambe ngayo, lomsebenzi abamele bawenze.

21 Hagi mago'ane Jetro'a huno, Vahepintira tamagema huno eri'zama eriga'ma nehuno, Anumzamofonku'ma kore'ma hunenteno, krunage'ma huno fenoma eri'zanku avesra nehia vahe'ene, huhampri zamantege'za 1 tauseni'a vahete kva manina, 1 hantreti'a vahete kva manina, 50'a vahete kva manina 10ni'a vahete kva manitere hiho.

Futhi wena ubone phakathi kwabo bonke abantu amadoda alamandla, amesabayo uNkulunkulu, amadoda eqiniso, azonda inzuzo engalunganga, uwabeke phezu kwabo, induna zezinkulungwane, induna zamakhulu, induna zamatshumi amahlanu, lenduna zamatshumi;

22 E'i ana kva vahe'mokizmi zamatrege'za maka knafina, vahe'mokizmi knazana refko huzmanteho. Hianagi ra hazenke'zana kagrite eri'za esagenka refko huzmanto. Hianagi ne'one knazazamia ana kva vahe'mo'za eri fatgo nehanageno, knama e'nerina zamo'a osi'a o'za hugantegahie.

ukuthi zahlulele abantu ngaso sonke isikhathi; kodwa kuzakuthi lonke udaba olukhulu zizaluletha kuwe, kodwa lonke udaba oluncinyane zizalwahlulela zona, ukuze kube lula kuwe, njalo zizathwalisana lawe.

23 Amama negasmua kema amage nentesankeno, Anumzamo kama kaverima hanigenka kazikazi hunka mika eri'zana knare hunka e'nerisankeno, vahe'mo'za muse nehu'za zamarimpa fru'ne nozimirega vu'za e'za hugahaze.

Uba usenza linto, loNkulunkulu ekulawula, uzakuba lamandla okuma, njalo labo bonke lababantu bazabuyela endaweni yabo ngokuthula.

24 Mosese'a, Jetro'ma asmi'nea kea antahino, ana maka kea amage ante'ne.

UMozisi waselilalela ilizwi likayisezala, wenza konke ayekutshilo.

25 Hagi Israeli vahepinti knare'nare vahe'a Mosese'a huhampri zmantege'za, kva vahera mani'za 1 tauseni'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 100'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 50'a vahe'mokizmi kva nemanizageno, 10ni'a vahe'mokizmi kva manitere hu'za kegava hu'naze.

UMozisi wasekhetha amadoda alamandla kuye wonke uIsrayeli, wawabeka inhloko phezu kwabantu, induna zezinkulungwane, induna zamakhulu, induna zamatshumi amahlanu lenduna zamatshumi.

26 Ana kva vahe'mo'za maka knafina, refko'ma huga knazana zamagra'a refko hu'naze. Hianagi amuhoma hianknazamofo keaga eri'za Mosesente vu'naze.

Zasezibahlulela abantu ngaso sonke isikhathi; zaletha kuMozisi indaba ezinzima, kodwa lonke udaba oluncinyane zalwahlulela zona.

27 Anante Mosese'a nenemo nera Jetrona hu frufra huntegeno mopa'arega ete vu'ne.

UMozisi wasemyekela wahamba uyisezala; waya elizweni lakibo.
