U-Eksodusi 15
1 Ngakho uMosi labako-Israyeli basebehlabelela lelihubo kuThixo: “Ngizamhlabelela uThixo ngoba uphakeme kakhulu. Ibhiza lomgadi walo ukuphosele ngamandla olwandle.
Then he sang Moses and [the] people of Israel the song this to Yahweh and they said saying I will sing to Yahweh for certainly he is exalted [the] horse and rider its he has thrown in the sea.
2 UThixo ungamandla ami lehubo lami; useyikusindiswa kwami. UnguNkulunkulu wami, ngizamdumisa; uNkulunkulu kababa ngizamphakamisa.
[is] might My and strength Yahweh and he has become of me salvation this [is] God my and I will glorify him [the] God of father my and I will exalt him.
3 UThixo ulibutho; nguThixo ibizo lakhe.
Yahweh [is] a man of war Yahweh [is] name his.
4 Izinqola zikaFaro lempi yakhe ukuphosele ngamandla olwandle. Izikhulu zikaFaro ezithenjiweyo, zigalule oLwandle oluBomvu.
[the] chariots of Pharaoh and army his he has thrown in the sea and [the] choicest of officers his they have been sunk in [the] sea of reed[s].
5 Inziki zamanzi zibagubuzele; batshona ekujuleni njengelitshe.
[the] deeps They have covered them they went down in [the] depths like a stone.
6 Isandla sakho sokunene, Oh Thixo, saba lamandla obukhosi. Isandla sakho sokunene, Oh Thixo, sasihlikiza isitha.
Right [hand] your O Yahweh [was] glorious in power right [hand] your O Yahweh it shattered [the] enemy.
7 Ebukhulwini bobukhosi bakho wabasakazela phansi abakuphikisayo. Wavulela ulaka lwakho oluvuthayo, lwabatshisa njengencwathi.
And in [the] greatness of majesty your you threw down [those who] rose against you you sent forth anger your it consumed them like stubble.
8 Ngokuphefumula kwamakhala akho amanzi aqoqana aba yinqwaba. Amanzi ageleza ngenhlokomo ema enza udonga; amanzi azikileyo ajiya enzikini yolwandle.
And by [the] breath of nostrils your they were piled up [the] waters they stood up like a heap streams they congealed [the] deeps in [the] heart of [the] sea.
9 Isitha sakloloda sathi, ‘Ngizabaxhuma, ngibedlule. Ngizakwaba impango; ngizazitika ngokungokwabo. Ngizakhokha inkemba yami, isandla sami sibabhubhise.’
He said [the] enemy I will pursue I will overtake I will divide [the] plunder it will be full of them self my I will draw sword my it will dispossess them hand my.
10 Kodwa wena wavuthela ngomoya wokuphefumula kwakho, ulwandle lwabasibekela. Batshona njengomnuso emanzini esabekayo.
You blew with breath your it covered them [the] sea they sank like lead in [the] waters mighty.
11 Ngubani kubonkulunkulu bonke onjengawe, Thixo? Ngubani onjengawe, olobukhosi ebungcweleni bakhe, owesabekayo ngenkazimulo, owenza izimangaliso?
Who? [is] like you among the gods O Yahweh who? [is] like you glorious in holiness awesome of praises doing wonder[s].
12 Welula isandla sakho sokunene umhlabathi uziginye izitha zakho.
You stretched out right [hand] your it swallowed up them [the] earth.
13 Ngothando lwakho olungapheliyo uzabahola abantu obahlengileyo. Ngamandla akho uzabaholela endaweni yakho engcwele.
You have guided in covenant loyalty your [the] people which you have redeemed you have led [them] by strength your to [the] abode of holiness your.
14 Izizwe zizakuzwa zithuthumele; umhedehede ubahlukuluze abantu baseFilistiya.
They have heard peoples they tremble! anguish it has seized [the] inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Izinduna zase-Edomi zizatshaywa luvalo, abakhokheli baseMowabi bafikelwe yikwesaba, abantu baseKhenani banyamalale nya!
Then they are terrified [the] chiefs of Edom [the] leaders of Moab it has seized them trembling they have melted away all [the] inhabitants of Canaan.
16 Ukwesaba lokuthuthumela kuzabehlela. Ngamandla engalo yakho, bazathula njengelitshe, abantu bakho baze bedlule, Oh Thixo, abantu owabadalayo baze bedlule.
It has fallen on them terror and dread on [the] greatness of strength your they have become still like stone until it has passed by people your O Yahweh until it has passed by [the] people which you have bought.
17 Uzabangenisa ubahlanyele entabeni yelifa lakho, indawo, Oh Thixo, owayenzela ukuthi uhlale kuyo, indawo engcwele, Oh Thixo, eyamiswa ngezandla zakho.
You will bring them and you will plant them on [the] mountain of inheritance your a place to dwell you you have made O Yahweh a sanctuary O Lord they have established hands your.
18 UThixo uzabusa kuze kube nini lanini.”
Yahweh - he will reign for ever and ever.
19 Kwathi lapho amabhiza kaFaro, izinqola kanye labagadi bamabhiza sebengenile olwandle, uThixo wawabuyisa amanzi alo phezu kwabo, kodwa abako-Israyeli bona bazihambela badabula ulwandle phezu komhlabathi owomileyo.
For it came [the] horse[s] of Pharaoh with chariot[s] his and with horsemen his in the sea and he brought back Yahweh over them [the] waters of the sea and [the] people of Israel they walked on the dry ground in [the] middle of the sea.
20 Khonapho uMiriyemu umphrofethikazi, udadewabo ka-Aroni, wathatha isigubhu sakhe ngesandla, bamlandela bonke abesifazane bephethe izigubhu begida.
And she took Miriam the prophetess [the] sister of Aaron the tambourine in hand her and they went out all the women behind her with tambourines and with dancing.
21 UMiriyemu wabahlabelela wathi: “Mhlabeleleni uThixo ngoba uphakeme kakhulu. Ibhiza lomgadi walo ukuphosele ngamandla olwandle.”
And she sang to them Miriam sing to Yahweh for certainly he is exalted horse and rider its he has thrown in the sea.
22 UMosi wasebahola abako-Israyeli basuka oLwandle Olubomvu baya enkangala yeShuri bengatholi manzi.
And he led out Moses Israel from [the] sea of reed[s] and they went out into [the] wilderness of Shur and they went three days in the wilderness and not they found water.
23 Kwathi befika eMara behluleka ukunatha amanzi akhona ngoba ayebaba. (Yikho indawo leyo kuthiwa yiMara.)
And they came Marah towards and not they were able to drink waters from Marah for [were] bitter they there-fore someone called name its Marah.
24 Abantu basebekhonona kuMosi besithi, “Sinatheni-ke manje?”
And they grumbled the people on Moses saying what? will we drink.
25 UMosi wasekhala kuThixo, uThixo wasemtshengisa isigojwana. Wasiphosela emanzini, amanzi aphenduka aba mnandi. Khonapho uThixo wabenzela isimiso lomthetho, njalo khonapho wabalinga.
And he cried out to Yahweh and he showed him Yahweh a tree and he threw [it] into the waters and they became sweet the waters there he made for it a decree and a custom and there he put to [the] test it.
26 Wathi, “Nxa lilalela kakuhle ilizwi likaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, lenze okulungileyo kuye, lilandele imilayo yakhe njalo ligcine lezimiso zakhe, kangisoze ngilehlisele iziga lezo engazehlisela amaGibhithe; ngoba nginguThixo olisilisayo.”
And he said certainly [if] you will listen to [the] voice of - Yahweh God your and the right in view his you will do and you will give ear to commandments his and you will keep all decrees his any sickness which I put on Egypt not I will put on you for I [am] Yahweh [who] heals you.
27 Basebefika e-Elimi lapho okwakulemithombo yamanzi elitshumi lambili khona, lezihlahla zelala ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa. Basebemisa khona lapho eduze kwamanzi.
And they came Elim towards and [were] there two [plus] ten springs of water and seventy palm trees and they encamped there at the water.
