U-Eksodusi 13
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 “Ngahlukanisela wonke amazibulo esilisa. Konke okuzalwa kuqala phakathi kwabako-Israyeli kungokwami, kungaba ngumuntu loba isifuyo.”
“Tew Israelfo mmabarima ne aboa biara abakan ho ma me; wɔn nyinaa yɛ me dea.”
3 Ngakho uMosi wasesithi ebantwini, “Lugcineni lube lusuku lwesikhumbuzo lolu, ilanga elaphuma ngalo eGibhithe, liphuma elizweni lobugqili, ngoba uThixo walikhupha khona ngamandla amakhulu. Lingadli lutho olulemvubelo.
Na Mose ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no se, “Nnɛ yɛ da a ɛsɛ sɛ mokae daa—da a mutu fii Misraim asase a na moyɛ nkoa wɔ so no so. Awurade ayɛ anwonwade akɛse bebree akyerɛ mo. Enti monkae sɛ, sɛ afe du na moredi afahyɛ yi a, mommfa mmɔkaw mfra mo aduan; na mommfa bi nkɔ mo afi nso mu koraa.
4 Lamuhla ngenyanga ka-Abhibhi, liyasuka.
Afe biara mu Abib ɔsram awiei (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem awiei), monkae saa otukɔ yi.
5 Kuzakuthi uThixo angalifikisa elizweni lamaKhenani, amaHithi, ama-Amori, amaHivi lamaJebusi, ilizwe afunga kubokhokho benu ukuthi uzalinika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, kufanele liwugcine lumkhosi ngayonale inyanga.
Awurade de mo baa Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Amorifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo nsase a ɛwo ne nufusu sen so a ɔkaa ho ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma mo no so.
6 Okwensuku eziyisikhombisa lidle isinkwa esingelamvubelo kuthi ngosuku lwesikhombisa lithakazelele umkhosi kaThixo;
Mubedi brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu nko ara nnanson. Na da a ɛto so ason no, monto pon kɛse mma Awurade.
7 kungabonwa lutho olulemvubelo phakathi kwenu, kuvele kungabonwa mvubelo elizweni lenu lonke.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara kora mmɔkaw wɔ ne fi anaa mo asase no ahye so baabiara.
8 Ngalelolanga ngulowo lalowo atshele indodana yakhe athi, ‘Lokhu ngikwenza ngenxa yalokho uThixo angenzela khona ekuphumeni kwami eGibhithe.’
Edu afirihyia na moredi nna yi a, monkyerɛ mo mma nea enti a moredi saa afahyɛ no. Ɛyɛ afahyɛ a mode bɛkae nea Awurade yɛ maa mo bere a mutu fii Misraim asase so no.
9 Lesisikhumbuzo kuwe sizakuba luphawu esandleni sakho lesikhumbuzo ebunzini lakho ukuthi umlayo kaThixo ube sezindebeni zakho. Ngoba uThixo wakukhupha eGibhithe ngesandla sakhe esilamandla amakhulu.
Saa afe biara mu nnaawɔtwe afahyɛ yi nyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne te sɛ agyiraehyɛde a wɔde abɔ mo nsa ho anaa mo moma so sɛ nkae ade. Momma Awurade mmara ntena mo anom, efisɛ tumi kɛse na ɔde yii mo fii Misraim.
10 Kalibosigcina lesisimiso ngesikhathi esimisiweyo minyaka yonke.
Afe biara, ɛrekɔ Abib (bɛyɛ Ɔbɛnem) awiei no, munni afahyɛ yi.
11 Nxa uThixo eselingenisile elizweni lamaKhenani walinika lona njengokuthembisa kwakhe kini lakubokhokho benu,
“Sɛ Awurade de mo ba asase a ɔhyɛɛ mo agyanom ho bɔ tete no a Kanaanfo te so mprempren no so a, monkae sɛ
12 kumele lahlukanisele uThixo konke okuzalwa kuqala yizo zonke izibeletho. Wonke amazibulo esilisa ezifuyo zenu ngakaThixo.
mo mmabarima a wɔyɛ mmakan nyinaa ne nyɛmmoa mmakan a wɔyɛ mmarima no nyinaa yɛ Awurade dea. Enti momfa mma no.
13 Lizahlenga izibulo likababhemi ngezinyane, kodwa nxa lingalihlenganga lephuleni intamo. Lihlenge njalo wonke amadodana enu angamazibulo.
Mutumi de oguan ba anaa abirekyi ba bɛsesa afurum ba abakan. Na sɛ woyɛ wʼadwene sɛ woremfa afurum no nni nsesa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wubu afurum no kɔn mu kum no. Nanso mo mmabarima abakan de, ɛsɛ sɛ motɔ wɔn ti.
14 Nxa indodana yakho ikubuza ngesikhathi esizayo isithi, ‘Kutshoni lokhu?’ ubokuthi kuyo, ‘uThixo wasikhupha eGibhithe ngesandla sakhe esilamandla amakhulu, wasikhupha elizweni lobugqili.
“Na sɛ daakye bi mo mma bisa mo se, ‘Eyinom nyinaa ase ne dɛn a, monka nkyerɛ wɔn se, Awurade nam anwonwade akɛse a ɔyɛe so na oyii yɛn fii nkoasom mu wɔ Misraim.
15 Kwathi uFaro eqholoza esala ukuthi sihambe, uThixo wabulala wonke amazibulo eGibhithe, awabantu lawezinyamazana. Yikho-nje nginikela kuThixo izibulo lesilisa lenzalo yonke ngiphinde ngihlenge wonke amadodana ami angamazibulo.’
Na Farao mpɛ sɛ ɔma yɛn kwan ma yɛkɔ nti, Awurade kum mmabarima ne mmoanini a wɔyɛ mmakan a wɔwɔ Misraim asase so nyinaa. Ɛno nti na yɛde mmabarima a wɔyɛ mmakan rema Awurade yi, nanso nnipa mmabarima mmakan no de, wɔtɔ wɔn ti.’
16 Lokhu kuzakuba njengophawu esandleni sakho lesibonelo ebunzini lakho ukuthi uThixo wakukhupha eGibhithe ngesandla sakhe esilamandla amakhulu.”
Na afahyɛ yi bɛda mo nsow sɛ moyɛ Onyankopɔn mma te sɛnea ɔde nʼagyiraehyɛde abɔ mo moma so a ɛkyerɛ sɛ Awurade nam ne tumi kɛse no so na ɔde yii yɛn fii Misraim.”
17 UFaro esebavumele abantu ukuthi bahambe, uNkulunkulu kabakhokhelanga ngendlela edabula elizweni lamaFilistiya loba yona yayiquma. Ngoba uNkulunkulu wathi, “Nxa behlangana lempi mhlawumbe bangethuka babuyele eGibhithe.”
Farao maa nnipa no kwan sɛ wɔnkɔ no, Onyankopɔn amma wɔamfa ɔkwan a ɛfa Filistifo man no mu a na ɛyɛ tiaa no so. Efisɛ Onyankopɔn kae se, “Sɛ wokohyia ɔko a, ebia na wɔasesa wɔn adwene ama wɔasan akɔ Misraim.”
18 Yikho uNkulunkulu wabahola ngendlela yenkangala eya oLwandle Olubomvu. Abako-Israyeli baphuma eGibhithe behlomele impi.
Enti Onyankopɔn dii wɔn anim de wɔn faa sare so de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Po Kɔkɔɔ. Israelfo no sii mu fii Misraim a na wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko.
19 UMosi wawathwala amathambo kaJosefa ngoba uJosefa wayenze isifungo lamadodana ka-Israyeli wathi, “Ngempela uNkulunkulu uzalikhulula. Lapho-ke libowathwala amathambo ami lisuke lawo kule indawo.”
Mose rekɔ no, ɔfaa Yosef nnompe de kaa ne ho kɔe, efisɛ na Yosef ama Israel mma aka Onyankopɔn ntam sɛ, “Sɛ ɔreyi wɔn afi Misraim a, wɔde ne nnompe bɛkɔ bi, efisɛ na onim sɛ Onyankopɔn beyi wɔn afi Misraim asase so.”
20 Sebesukile eSukhothi bayamisa e-Ethamu indawo egudlene lenkangala.
Wofi Sukot no, wɔkɔkyeree nsraban wɔ Etam sare no ano.
21 Emini uThixo wahamba phambi kwabo ngensika yeyezi ebahola endleleni yabo, kwathi ebusuku wabahola ngensika yomlilo ukubakhanyisela ukuze bahambe emini lebusuku.
Awurade de omununkum kyerɛɛ wɔn kwan awia na ɔde ogya nso kyerɛɛ wɔn kwan anadwo. Enti na wotumi tu wɔn kwan no awia ne anadwo nyinaa.
22 Insika yeyezi emini loba insika yomlilo ebusuku kakuzange kusuke endaweni yakho phambi kwabantu.
Awia mununkum fadum anaa anadwo gya fadum no amfi nʼafa wɔ nnipa no anim da.
