Okuva 3

1 Awo olwatuuka, Musa bwe yali ng’alunda ekisibo ky’endiga za mukoddomi we Yesero, kabona w’e Midiyaani, n’atwala ekisibo ku ludda olw’ebugwanjuba olw’eddungu; n’atuuka ku lusozi lwa Katonda oluyitibwa Kolebu.

Na Mose rehwɛ nʼase Yetro a ɔyɛ Midian sɔfo nguan. Ɔde nguan no wuraa sare no mu kɔɔ akyirikyiri koduu Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔw no so.

2 Malayika wa Mukama n’amulabikira ng’asinziira mu muliro ogwaka, mu makkati g’ekisaka. Musa n’atunuulira ekisaka, n’alaba nga kyaka naye nga tekisiriira.

Prɛko pɛ, na Awurade bɔfo nam wura bi gyaframa mu yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Mose. Mose huu sɛ wura no redɛw nanso na ɛnhyew.

3 Musa n’ayogera mu mwoyo gwe nti, “Leka nneetoolooleko neetegereze ekintu kino ekitali kya bulijjo, eky’ekitalo, ekireetedde ekisaka obutasiriira.”

Enti Mose kae se, “Mɛkɔ akɔhwɛ anwonwade yi ahu nea nti a wura no nhyew.”

4 Mukama bwe yalaba nga Musa agenze okwetegereza, Katonda n’amuyita ng’asinziira mu kisaka wakati nti, “Musa, Musa!” Musa n’ayitaba nti, “Nze nzuuno.”

Bere a Awurade huu sɛ ɔrekɔhwɛ no, ɔfrɛɛ no fii wura no mu se, “Mose! Mose!” Mose gyee so se, “Me ni.”

5 Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Teweeyongera kusembera. Ggyamu engatto zo, kubanga ekifo w’oyimiridde kitukuvu.”

Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mmɛn me. Yi wo mpaboa na faako a wugyina no yɛ asase kronkron.”

6 Ne yeeyongera n’amugamba nti, “Nze Katonda wa kitaawo, era nze Katonda wa Ibulayimu, nze Katonda wa Isaaka, era nze Katonda wa Yakobo.” Musa bwe yawulira ebyo n’akweka amaaso ge, kubanga yatya okutunuulira Katonda.

Ɔtoaa so se, “Mene wʼagyanom Nyankopɔn, Abraham Nyankopɔn, Isak Nyankopɔn ne Yakob Nyankopɔn no.” Mose kataa nʼanim, efisɛ na osuro sɛ ɔbɛhwɛ Onyankopɔn anim.

7 Awo Mukama Katonda n’ayogera nti, “Ndabidde ddala okubonaabona kw’abantu bange abali mu Misiri. Mpulidde ebiwoobe byabwe olw’abo ababatuntuza ng’abaddu; era ntegedde okubonaabona kwabwe.

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mahu amanehunu a me manfo a wɔwɔ Misraim no wɔ mu no, na mate wɔn nkotosrɛ a ɛfa wɔn nnwuma wuranom ho, na minim wɔn ahohia.

8 Kyenvudde nzika, mbawonye effugabbi ery’Abamisiri, era mbaggye mu nsi eyo, mbaleete mu nsi ennungi era engazi, y’ensi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki; kaakano mwe muli Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abamoli, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi n’Abayebusi.

Maba sɛ merebegye wɔn afi Misraimfo nsam na mayi wɔn afi Misraim asase so de wɔn akɔ asase pa a ɛso bae so, asase a ɛwo ne nufusu wɔ so; asase a Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Amorifo, Perisifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo te so no so.

9 Kale mpulidde okukaaba kw’abaana ba Isirayiri, era ndabye ng’Abamisiri bwe bababonyaabonya.

Mate Israelfo no su na mahu nya a Misraimfo di wɔn no.

10 Noolwekyo, jjangu nkutume ewa Falaawo, oggyeyo abantu bange abaana ba Isirayiri mu Misiri.”

Enti afei, merebɛsoma wo akɔ Farao nkyɛn, na woakoyi me man Israel afi Misraim.”

11 Naye Musa n’agamba Katonda nti, “Nange nze ani agenda ewa Falaawo nziggyeyo abaana ba Isirayiri mu Misiri?”

Mose kae se, “Mene hena a ɛsɛ sɛ mekɔ Farao anim akoyi Israelfo afi Misraim asase so?”

12 Katonda n’amuddamu nti, “Ddala, nnaabeeranga naawe. Era kino kye kikakasa nti nze nkutumye: Bw’olimala okuggya abantu abo mu Misiri, mulisinziza Katonda ku lusozi luno.”

Onyankopɔn buaa no se, “Mɛka wo ho. Adansede a ɛkyerɛ sɛ me na masoma wo no ni. Sɛ wuyi nnipa no fi Misraim a, mobɛsom Onyankopɔn wɔ saa bepɔw yi so.”

13 Awo Musa n’abuuza Katonda nti, “Bwe ndituuka mu baana ba Isirayiri ne mbategeeza nti, ‘Katonda wa bajjajjammwe antumye gye muli;’ nabo ne bambuuza nti, ‘Erinnya lye ye ani?’ Ndibaddamu ntya?”

Mose bisae se, “Sɛ mekɔ Israelfo no nkyɛn kɔka se wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn na wasoma me na wobisa me se, ‘Onyankopɔn bɛn na mereka ne ho asɛm no’ a, mmuae bɛn na memfa mma wɔn?”

14 Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Ndi nga bwe Ndi,” n’ayongera nti, “Bw’otyo bw’onootegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, ‘Ndi y’antumye gye muli.’”

Obuaa Mose se, ka se, “Mene nea ɔwɔ hɔ daa no. Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Mene Nea Mene na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.’”

15 Katonda n’ayongera n’agamba Musa nti, “Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, ‘Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjammwe: Katonda wa Ibulayimu, era Katonda wa Isaaka, era nga ye Katonda wa Yakobo, y’antumye gye muli.’ “Eryo lye linnya lyange ery’olubeerera, era lye linnya lye nnajjuukirirwangako mu buli mulembe ogunaddiriranga gunnaagwo.

Onyankopɔn toaa so se, “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Awurade a ɔyɛ mo agyanom Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Nyankopɔn na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.’” Eyi ne me din a wɔde bɛkae me daa fi awo ntoatoaso so kosi awo ntoatoaso so.

16 “Genda okuŋŋaanye abakadde ba Isirayiri, obategeeze nti, ‘Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjammwe, Katonda wa Ibulayimu, era owa Isaaka, era owa Yakobo, yandabikira, n’aŋŋamba nti, Ntunuulidde abantu bange, ne ndaba ebibakolebwa mu Misiri.

“Kɔ, frɛ Israelfo mpanyimfo na ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Awurade, Abraham, Isak ne Yakob Nyankopɔn no daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ me, kae se: Mawɛn mo na mahu nea wɔde ayɛ mo wɔ Misraim.

17 Kyenvudde nsuubiza okubaggya mu kubonaabona kwe balimu mu Misiri, mbaleete mu nsi y’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abamoli, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi; y’ensi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.’

Mehyɛ bɔ sɛ meyi mo afi mo awerɛhow mu wɔ Misraim de mo akɔ asase a Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Amorifo, Perisifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo te so nnɛ yi a ɛwo ne nufusu wɔ so no so.’

18 “Abakadde ba Isirayiri bagenda kuwuliriza by’ogamba. Kale, ggwe n’abakadde ba Isirayiri muligenda eri kabaka wa Misiri ne mumugamba nti, ‘Mukama, Katonda w’Abaebbulaniya yeeraga gye tuli. Tukkirize tugende mu ddungu, olugendo lwa nnaku ssatu, tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda waffe.’

“Israelfo mpanyimfo betie wʼasɛm no. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne mpanyimfo no kɔ Misraimhene hɔ kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Awurade, Hebrifo Nyankopɔn, ne yɛn ahyia na waka akyerɛ yɛn se, yentu nnansa kwan nkɔ sare so nkɔbɔ afɔre mma no.’

19 Naye mmanyi nga kabaka w’e Misiri talibakkiriza kugenda, wabula ng’awalirizibbwa n’amaanyi mangi.

Nanso minim sɛ Misraimhene remma mo kwan da, gye sɛ nsa bi a ɛyɛ duru hyɛ no ketee.

20 Kyendiva nkozesa amaanyi gange, ne mbonereza Misiri n’ebyamagero bye ndikolera mu nsi omwo; n’oluvannyuma alibakkiriza ne mugenda.

Enti mɛteɛ me nsa na mede anwonwade ahorow a mɛyɛ wɔ wɔn mu no nyinaa atia wɔn. Ɛno akyi no, ɔbɛma mo akɔ.

21 “Era Abamisiri ndibaagazisa abantu abo; bwe mutyo bwe muliba musitula, temulivaayo ngalo nsa.

“Mɛma mo anim aba nyam wɔ Misraimfo no anim na wɔahyehyɛ akyɛde ama mo, na moankɔ no nsapan.

22 Buli mukazi Omuyisirayiri alisaba omukazi Omumisiri muliraanwa we, n’oyo bwe basula mu nju emu, ebitemagana ebya ffeeza n’ebya zaabu, n’engoye ez’okwambala. Ebyo byonna mulibyambaza batabani bammwe ne bawala bammwe; Abamisiri ne muleka nga mubakalizza.”

Ɔbea biara mmisa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ adwinne ne ntama pa mfi nʼafipamfo ne ne fifo mmea nkyɛn na wɔmfa nsiesie wɔn mmabarima ne wɔn mmabea ho. Saayɛ so na mobɛfa afow Misraimfo no.”
