1 Awo Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa ne Alooni nga bali mu nsi y’e Misiri, n’abagamba nti,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni elizweni leGibhithe, isithi:
2 “Okuva leero omwezi guno gwe gunaabanga omubereberye mu myezi gyonna mu mwaka gwammwe.
Le inyanga kayibe kini yinhloko yezinyanga, ibe kini ngeyokuqala yenyanga zomnyaka.
3 Mutegeeze abantu bonna aba Isirayiri nti ku lunaku olw’ekkumi olw’omwezi guno kigwanidde buli mukulu wa nnyumba, addire omwana gw’endiga ogw’okuliibwa mu maka ge, buli maka omwana gw’endiga gumu.
Khulumani kunhlangano yonke yakoIsrayeli lithi: Ngolwetshumi lwalinyanga bazazithathela ngulowo iwundlu, ngokwezindlu zaboyise, iwundlu ngendlu.
4 Singa amaka gabaamu abantu batono nnyo abatamalaawo mwana gwa ndiga, amaka ago geegatte n’ag’omuliraano balye omwana gw’endiga ogwo. Muligeraageranya obungi bw’abantu abamalawo omwana gw’endiga nga musinziira ku ndya ya buli omu mu maka omwo.
Uba-ke indlu incinyane kakhulu ewundlwini, kakuthi yena athathe lomakhelwane wakhe, oseduze lendlu yakhe, njengobunengi bemiphefumulo; ngulowo njengokudla kwakhe, lizabalela iwundlu.
5 Omwana gw’endiga gusaana gube gwa seddume nga gwa mwaka gumu obukulu, era nga teguliiko kamogo. Guyinza okuba omwana gw’endiga oba ogw’embuzi.
Lizakuba lezinyane elingelasici, eliduna, elilomnyaka owodwa; lithatheni ezimvini loba ezimbuzini.
6 Ensolo ezo muzirabiriranga okutuusa ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi guno; ekibiina kyonna eky’abantu ba Isirayiri ne kiryoka kizitta akawungeezi.
Njalo lizaligcina kuze kufike usuku lwetshumi lane lwaleyonyanga, njalo ibandla lonke lenhlangano yakoIsrayeli izalihlaba kusihlwa.
7 Baddiranga omusaayi ne bagumansira ku njuyi zombi ne waggulu, ku mwango gw’oluggi lwa buli nnyumba mwe baliriira omwana gw’endiga.
Bazathatha-ke okwegazi, bakufake emigubazini yomibili lekhothameni, ezindlini abazalidlela kuzo.
8 Mu kiro ekyo ennyama balyanga njokye ku muliro, era baliirangako n’emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse n’enva ezikaawa.
Njalo bazakudla inyama ngalobobusuku, yosiwe ngomlilo, lesinkwa esingelamvubelo, lemibhida ebabayo bazayidla.
9 Tewabanga ku nnyama eyo gye mulya nga mbisi obanga efumbwa mu mazzi; wabula mugyokyanga ku muliro: omutwe, amagulu n’eby’omunda byonna.
Lingadli okwalo kuluhlaza kumbe kuphekiwe lokuphekwa ngamanzi, kodwa yosiwe ngomlilo; inhloko yalo lemilenze yalo, kanye lemibilini yalo.
10 Temugiterekangako kutuusa nkeera; bw’ebalemanga eggulolimu, mugyokyanga bwokya ne mugizikiriza.
Njalo lingatshiyi lutho kulo kuze kube sekuseni, kodwa okusalayo kulo kuze kube sekuseni lizakutshisa ngomlilo.
11 Mugiryanga bwe muti: Mwesibanga ekimyu, nga mwambadde n’engatto zammwe, nga mukutte n’omuggo. Mugiryanga mangu. Kubanga eyo y’Embaga ey’Okuyitako kwa Mukama.
Ngokunjalo-ke lizalidla, inkalo zenu zibotshiwe, izicathulo zenu zisenyaweni zenu, lendondolo zenu zisezandleni zenu; lizalidla ngokuphangisa; kuliphasika leNkosi.
12 “Kubanga mu kiro ekyo ndiyita mu nsi ya Misiri, nditta buli kibereberye kyonna mu nsi y’e Misiri, abantu era n’ebisolo; era bakatonda bonna ab’omu Misiri ndibasalira omusango. Nze Mukama.
Ngoba ngizadabula phakathi kwelizwe leGibhithe ngalobubusuku, ngitshaye wonke amazibulo elizweni leGibhithe, kusukela emuntwini kusiya enyamazaneni, ngizakwenza izigwebo kubo bonke onkulunkulu beGibhithe; mina ngiyiNkosi.
13 Omusaayi ke kaliba akabonero akalaga ennyumba mwe muli; era bwe ndiraba omusaayi, nga mbayitako; so n’okuzikirira kwe ndireeta ku Bamisiri mmwe tekulibakwatako.
Legazi lizakuba kini yisibonakaliso ezindlini lapho elikhona; nxa ngibona igazi ngizadlula phezu kwenu, njalo kungehleli kini inhlupheko yokuchitha, mhla ngitshaya ilizwe leGibhithe.
14 “Olunaku luno lunaababeereranga lwa kijjukizo, era munaalukuumanga ne mulukwata nga lwa mbaga ya Mukama mu mirembe gyammwe gyonna egiriddiriŋŋana. Lino lifuuse tteeka ery’emirembe gyonna.
Njalo lolusuku luzakuba kini yisikhumbuzo; njalo lizalugcina lube ngumkhosi eNkosini; lizalugcina ezizukulwaneni zenu ngokomthetho wanininini.
15 Munaalyanga emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse okumala ennaku musanvu; era ku lunaku olusooka, mu nnaku ezo omusanvu, ekizimbulukusa mukiggiranga ddala mu nnyumba zammwe, kubanga alivumbulwa ng’alidde omugaati ogulimu ekizimbulukusa, okuva ku lunaku olusooka okutuusa ku lunaku olw’omusanvu, aligobebwa mu Isirayiri.
Insuku eziyisikhombisa lizakudla isinkwa esingelamvubelo. Yebo ngosuku lokuqala lizakhupha imvubelo ezindlini zenu; ngoba wonke odla okuvutshelweyo kusukela kusuku lokuqala kuze kufike usuku lwesikhombisa, lowomphefumulo uzaqunywa usuke koIsrayeli.
16 Ku lunaku olusooka wanaabangawo olukuŋŋaana olutukuvu, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu munaabanga n’olukuŋŋaana olutukuvu; ennaku ezo temuzikolerangako mulimu gwa ngeri yonna, okuggyako okufumba emmere abantu bonna gye banaalya, kye kyokka kye mujjanga okukola.
Njalo ngosuku lokuqala kuzakuba khona inhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele, langosuku lwesikhombisa lizakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; kungenziwa msebenzi ngazo, kuphela lokho wonke umphefumulo okudlayo, lokho kodwa kungenziwa yini.
17 “Mukwatanga Embaga ey’Emigati Egitali mizimbulukuse, kubanga ku lunaku luno lwennyini kwe naggyira ebika bya Isirayiri mu nsi y’e Misiri. Noolwekyo olunaku luno munaalukwatanga n’ab’omu mirembe gyonna egiriddawo. Ekyo kiragiro eky’emirembe n’emirembe.
Ngakho gcinani izinkwa ezingelamvubelo; ngoba ngalona lolosuku ngikhuphile amabutho enu elizweni leGibhithe. Ngakho lizagcina lolosuku ezizukulwaneni zenu ngesimiso saphakade.
18 Mu mwezi ogusooka, munaalyanga omugaati ogutaliimu kizimbulukusa, okuva mu kawungeezi ak’olunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi, okutuusa ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu olumu olw’omwezi ogwo.
Kweyokuqala, osukwini lwetshumi lane lwenyanga kusihlwa lizakudla isinkwa esingelamvubelo, kuze kufike usuku lwamatshumi amabili lanye lwenyanga kusihlwa.
19 Okumala ennaku musanvu mu nnyumba zammwe temulabikangamu ekizimbulukusa; era alivumbulwa ng’alidde ekintu kyonna omuli ekizimbulukusa, agenda kugobwa mu Isirayiri, ne bwaliba omuzaaliranwa oba omugwira.
Insuku eziyisikhombisa kakungaficwa imvubelo ezindlini zenu; ngoba wonke odla okuvutshelweyo lowomphefumulo uzaqunywa usuke kunhlangano yakoIsrayeli, loba engowemzini loba engowokuzalwa elizweni.
20 Temulyanga kintu kyonna omuli ekizimbulukusa; mu nnyumba zammwe mwe musula yonna, mulyanga emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse.”
Lingadli lutho oluvutshelweyo; emizini yenu yonke lizakudla isinkwa esingelamvubelo.
21 Awo Musa n’ayita abakulembeze ba Isirayiri bonna, n’abagamba nti, “Mwerondere abaana b’endiga ng’amaka gammwe bwe gali, mutte omwana gw’endiga ogw’Okuyitako.
UMozisi wasebiza bonke abadala bakoIsrayeli, wathi kubo: Hudulani lizithathele amawundlu ngokwensapho zenu, lihlabe iphasika,
22 Musibe bulungi akaddo k’akakubansiri, mukannyike mu musaayi gwe mutadde mu bensani, mulyoke mumansire ku mwango gw’oluggi waggulu, ne ku njuyi zombi ez’omwango. Tewabaawo n’omu afuluma ennyumba ye okutuusa ng’obudde bukedde.
lithathe ilixha lehisope, liligxamuze egazini elisemganwini, lininde ekhothameni lemigubazini emibili ngegazi elisemganwini; lina-ke, kakungaphumi muntu endlini yakhe kuze kube sekuseni.
23 Kubanga Mukama ajja kuyita awo ng’agenda okutta Abamisiri; kale bw’anaalaba omusaayi ku mwango gw’oluggi waggulu ne ku mwango mu mbiriizi z’oluggi, oluggi olwo Mukama ajja kuluyitako, era tajja kukkiriza oyo azikiriza kuyingira mu nnyumba zammwe n’okubatta.
Ngoba iNkosi izadabula ukutshaya amaGibhithe; nxa ibona igazi ekhothameni lemigubazini yomibili, iNkosi izadlula phezu komnyango, ingavumeli umchithi ukuthi angene ezindlini zenu ukutshaya.
24 “Kibagwanira okugondera ebiragiro bino ng’etteeka, mmwe ne batabani bammwe emirembe gyonna.
Njalo lizagcina le into, kube yisimiso kini lakubantwana benu kuze kube phakade.
25 Era bwe muliyingira mu nsi Mukama gy’alibawa nga bwe yasuubiza, temwerabiranga mukolo guno.
Njalo kuzakuthi lapho lifika elizweni iNkosi ezalinika lona njengokukhuluma kwayo, lizagcina linkonzo.
26 Abaana bammwe bwe balibabuuza nti, ‘Omukolo guno gutegeeza ki?’
Kuzakuthi-ke lapho abantwana benu besithi kini: Iyini linkonzo elilayo?
27 Mulibaddamu nti, ‘Kino kye kiweebwayo eri Mukama eky’Okuyitako, kubanga yayita ku nnyumba z’Abayisirayiri mu Misiri, n’awonya amaka gaffe, bwe yatta Abamisiri.’” Awo abantu ne bavuunama ne basinza.
Lizakuthi-ke: Lo ngumhlatshelo wephasika leNkosi, eyedlula phezu kwezindlu zabantwana bakoIsrayeli eGibhithe mhla itshaya amaGibhithe, wophula izindlu zethu. Njalo abantu bakhothama bakhonza.
28 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bagenda ne bakola nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa ne Alooni, bwe batyo bwe baakola.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebehamba, bayakwenza njengalokhu iNkosi yayibalayile oMozisi loAroni, benza njalo.
29 Awo ekiro mu ttumbi Mukama n’atta ebibereberye byonna mu nsi y’e Misiri, okuviira ddala ku mubereberye wa Falaawo eyali ow’okumusikira, okutuuka ku mubereberye w’omusibe ali mu kkomera; era n’ente embereberye zonna.
Kwasekusithi phakathi kobusuku iNkosi yatshaya wonke amazibulo elizweni leGibhithe, kusukela kuzibulo likaFaro elalizahlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi kuze kube kuzibulo lesibotshwa esasisentolongweni, lamazibulo wonke ezifuyo.
30 Falaawo n’azuukuka mu kiro wakati, ye n’abaweereza be bonna, n’Abamisiri bonna; Misiri yonna n’ejjula okukungubaga, kubanga tewaaliwo nnyumba n’emu omutaafa muntu.
UFaro wasesukuma ebusuku, yena lenceku zakhe zonke lamaGibhithe wonke. Kwasekusiba khona isililo esikhulu eGibhithe, ngoba kwakungekho ndlu lapho okwakungelamufi khona.
31 Mu kiro ekyo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni n’abagamba nti, “Musituke! Mutuviire, nze n’abantu bange, mmwe n’abaana ba Isirayiri. Mugende musinze Mukama nga bwe mwansaba.
Wasebiza oMozisi loAroni ebusuku, wathi: Sukumani, liphume phakathi kwabantu bami, lonke lina labantwana bakoIsrayeli, lihambe liyekhonza iNkosi njengokutsho kwenu.
32 Mutwale amagana gammwe n’ebisibo byammwe nga bwe mwansaba, mugende; nange munsabirangayo omukisa!”
Thathani lani izimvu zenu lenkomo zenu njengokutsho kwenu, lihambe; futhi lingibusise lami.
33 Awo Abamisiri ne basindiikiriza abaana ba Isirayiri banguwe okubaviira mu nsi yaabwe; kubanga baagamba nti, “Ffenna tufa tuggwaawo!”
Njalo amaGibhithe ayebakhuthaza abantu ebahaluzelisa ukuthi baphume elizweni, ngoba athi: Sonke sifile.
34 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne baddira obuwunga bwabwe obw’emigaati obugotte, obutaliimu kizimbulukusa, ne babussa mu bbakuli omufumbirwa emigaati, ne babuzinga mu ngoye zaabwe, ne babutwalira ku bibegabega byabwe.
Abantu-ke bathatha inhlama yabo ingakavutshelwa, betshata imiganu yabo yokuxovela ibotshelwe ezembathweni zabo.
35 Baakola nga Musa bwe yabalagira, ne basaba Abamisiri eby’omuwendo ebya ffeeza n’ebya zaabu, awamu n’ebyambalo.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenza njengelizwi likaMozisi; bacela kumaGibhithe izinto zesiliva lezinto zegolide lezigqoko.
36 Mukama yali aleetedde abaana ba Isirayiri okuganja mu Bamisiri, bwe batyo ne baweebwa buli kye baasabanga. Ne baleka nga bakalizza Abamisiri.
INkosi yasibapha abantu umusa emehlweni amaGibhithe, aze abanika izicelo zabo. Basebewaphundla amaGibhithe.
37 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne batambula okuva e Lameseesi ne batuuka e Sukkosi. Baali abantu ng’emitwalo nkaaga, ng’abakazi n’abaana tebabaliddwa.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesuka eRamesesi besiya eSukothi; amadoda angaba zinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha ahamba ngenyawo, ngaphandle kwabantwana.
38 Waaliwo n’abantu abalala bangi abaagenda nabo. Baatwala amagana g’ente mangi, n’ebisibo, bingi nnyo.
Kwasekusenyuka labo lexuku lenhlobonhlobo, lezimvu lezinkomo, lezifuyo ezinengi kakhulu.
39 Ne beefumbira emigaati mu buwunga obugotte bwe baggya mu Misiri, naye tegyalimu kizimbulukusa, kubanga baasindiikirizibwa busindiikirizibwa okuva mu Misiri, ne bataba na budde bwa kwefumbira mmere.
Basebebhaka izinkwa ezingelamvubelo ngenhlama abayikhupha eGibhithe, ngoba ingavutshelwanga, ngoba baxotshwa eGibhithe, ngoba babengelakulibala, futhi bengazilungiselelanga umphako.
40 Emyaka abaana ba Isirayiri gye baamala mu Misiri gyawera ebikumi bina mu amakumi asatu.
Isikhathi sokuhlala-ke kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli abasihlala eGibhithe sasiyiminyaka engamakhulu amane lamatshumi amathathu.
41 Ku lunaku olwasembayo olwaweza emyaka ebikumi ebina mu asatu, eggye lya Mukama eryo lyonna kwe lyasitulira ne liva mu nsi y’e Misiri.
Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kweminyaka engamakhulu amane lamatshumi amathathu, kwathi ngalona lolosuku wonke amabutho eNkosi aphuma elizweni leGibhithe.
42 Mukama yali bulindaala ekiro ky’olunaku olwo, n’aggya abaana ba Isirayiri mu nsi y’e Misiri; noolwekyo abaana ba Isirayiri banajjukiranga Mukama ekiro ky’olunaku olwo emirembe gyabwe gyonna.
Kuyibusuku bemilindo eNkosini ngokubakhupha elizweni leGibhithe; lobu yibusuku beNkosi bemilindo yabo bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli ezizukulwaneni zabo.
43 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti, “Bino by’ebiragiro by’Okuyitako: “Omunaggwanga takkirizibwa kugiryako.
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi loAroni: Lesi yisimiso sephasika. Kakho owezizwe ongalidla;
44 Omuddu aguliddwa n’ensimbi akkirizibwa okugiryako singa amala okukomolebwa;
kodwa sonke isigqili sawo wonke umuntu, esathengwa ngemali, nxa usisokile, ngalesosikhathi sizakudla kulo.
45 naye omugenyi omugwira, n’omupakasi akola awaka, tebakkirizibwa kugiryako.
Owezizwe loqhatshiweyo bangadli kulo.
46 “Buli ndiga eneerirwanga mu nnyumba emu; ennyama eyo tekuubengako efulumizibwa bweru wa nju eyo. Temumenyanga ku magumba gaayo n’erimu.
Lizadlelwa endlini yinye; ungakhupheli phandle kwendlu okwenyama, ungephuli thambo lalo.
47 Abantu bonna aba Isirayiri banaakolanga omukolo guno.
Inhlangano yonke yakoIsrayeli izakwenza lokhu.
48 “Omunaggwanga abeera mu mmwe bw’abanga ayagala okukolera Mukama Katonda omukolo gw’Okuyitako, asaana asooke okukomola abantu be aboobulenzi bonna abali mu maka ge, alyoke asembere gye muli yeegatte mu mukolo ogwo; kubanga olwo anaabanga ng’omuzaaliranwa mu nsi omwo. Naye atali mukomole taagiryengako.
Uba owemzini ohlala lani njengowezizwe egcinela iNkosi iphasika, kabasokwe bonke abesilisa laye, abesesondela-ke aligcine, uzakuba njengowokuzalwa elizweni; kodwa kakho ongasokwanga ozalidla.
49 Etteeka lye limu lye linaakwatibwanga omuzaaliranwa n’Omunnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe.”
Umlayo munye uzakuba kowokuzalwa elizweni lakowemzini ohlala phakathi kwenu njengowezizwe.
50 Bwe batyo abaana ba Isirayiri bonna ne bakola nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa ne Alooni; bwe batyo bonna bwe baakola.
Bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenza njengalokhu iNkosi yayibalayile oMozisi loAroni; benza njalo.
51 Awo ku lunaku olwo lwennyini Mukama Katonda n’aggya abaana ba Isirayiri mu nsi ey’e Misiri nga bagendera mu bibinja byabwe.
Kwasekusithi ngalona lolosuku iNkosi yabakhupha abantwana bakoIsrayeli elizweni leGibhithe ngamabutho abo.
