5 UJethro, uyisezala kaMosi kanye lamadodana lenkosikazi kaMosi beza kuye enkangala lapho ayehlala khona eduzane lentaba kaNkulunkulu.
Jethro el tuku, us mutan kial Moses ac wen luo natul nu yen mwesis, yen Moses el mutangan aktuktuk we ke eol mutal.
6 UJethro wayethumele ilizwi kuye wathi, “Mina uyihlozala uJethro ngiyeza kuwe lenkosikazi yakho lamadodana ayo amabili.”

7 Ngakho uMosi waphuma wayahlangabeza uyisezala wasemkhothamela, wamanga. Babingelelana basebengena ethenteni.
ouinge Moses el illa som in osun nu sel, pasr ye mutal ac ngok mutal. Eltal siyuk sin sie sin sie lah moul laltal fuka, na eltal utyak nu in lohm nuknuk sel Moses.
8 UMosi watshela uyisezala ngakho konke uThixo ayekwenze kuFaro labantu baseGibhithe ngenxa yabantu bako-Israyeli langezinhlupho zonke ezabehlela endleleni lokuthi uThixo wayebasindise njani.
Moses el fahkang nu sel Jethro ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh oru nu sin tokosra ac nu sin mwet Egypt in pwanang moliyukla mwet Israel. El oayapa fahk nu sel ke ma upa nukewa ma sikyak nu selos inkanek lalos, ac fuka LEUM GOD El molelosla.
9 UJethro wathokoza ukuzwa ngezinto zonke ezinhle uThixo ayezenzele u-Israyeli ekubasindiseni esandleni samaGibhithe.
Ke Jethro el lohng tari ma inge nukewa, el engan
10 Wathi, “Kadunyiswe uThixo owalisindisa esandleni samaGibhithe loFaro, njalo owasindisa abantu esandleni samaGibhithe.
ac fahk, “Kaksakin LEUM GOD, su molikowosla liki mwet Egypt ac tokosra lalos! Kaksakin LEUM GOD, su molela mwet lal liki moul in mwet kohs!
11 Khathesi sengikwazi ukuthi uThixo ulamandla ukwedlula abanye onkulunkulu ngenxa yokuthi wenza lokhu kubo bonke abaphatha u-Israyeli ngobuqholo.”
Inge nga etu lah LEUM GOD El fulat liki god nukewa, mweyen El molela mwet Israel ke pacl mwet Egypt uh oru koluk nu selos ke sripen angyang lun insialos.”
12 Lapho-ke uJethro, uyisezala kaMosi, waletha umnikelo wokutshiswa leminye imihlatshelo kuNkulunkulu, njalo u-Aroni weza labadala bako-Israyeli ukuze bazokudla isinkwa loyisezala kaMosi phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
Na Jethro el use soko kosro in fonna kisakinyuk in mwe kisa firir, wi pac mwe kisa saya in kisakinyuk nu sin LEUM GOD. Ac Aaron ac mwet kol lun Israel nukewa welul som mongo ke mwe mongo mutal inge ye mutun God.
13 Ngelanga elilandelayo uMosi wathatha isihlalo sakhe sokuba ngumthonisi wabantu, njalo bema bemgombolozele kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwaba ntambama.
Ke len tok ah Moses el kafofo ke aksuwosye amei inmasrlon mwet uh, su tu ye mutal ke lotutang nwe ke fongeni.
14 Kwathi uyisezala esebone konke uMosi ayekwenzela abantu wathi, “Kuyini lokhu okwenzela abantu? Kungani uhlala unguwe wedwa ukuba ngumahluli, abantu bonke bemi bekuhanqile kusukela ekuseni kuze kube kusihlwa?”
Ke Jethro el liye ma nukewa Moses el oru nu sin mwet uh, el siyuk, “Meawin kom oru nu sin mwet uh inge? Efu ku kom mukena oru ma inge, ke mwet uh tu inge lotutang nwe ke fongeni soano pacl lalos yurum?”
15 UMosi wamphendula wathi, “Ngenxa yokuthi abantu beza kimi ukuzodinga intando kaNkulunkulu.
Moses el topuk, “Mweyen mwet uh tuku nu yuruk in siyuk ke ma lungse lun God.
16 Lapho kusiba lengxabano, ilethwa kimi, njalo ngiyahlulela emaceleni womabili besengibatshela ngemithetho lemilayo kaNkulunkulu.”
Pacl se mwet luo ac ameila, eltal ac tuku nu yuruk, ac nga ac wotela lah su seltal pwaye, ac nga aketeya ma sap ac oakwuk lun God nu seltal.”
17 Uyisezala kaMosi waphendula wathi, “Konke okwenzayo kakulunganga.
Na Jethro el fahk, “Tia pa ingan ma kom ac oru.
18 Wena labantu laba abeza kuwe lizazidinisa. Umsebenzi lo unzima kuwe: ungeke wawenza wedwa.
Kom sifacna akmunasyekomla ac oayapa mwet lom inge. Orekma se inge arulana toasr nu sum in mukena oru.
19 Ngilalela ngikucebise, njalo uNkulunkulu makabe lawe. Kumele ube ngummeli wabantu kuNkulunkulu, ulethe ingxabano zabo kuye.

21 Kodwa khetha amadoda alamandla phakathi kwabantu bonke, amadoda amesabayo uNkulunkulu, azonda inzuzo eza ngobuqili, ubusubabeka babe zinduna zezinkulungwane, zamakhulu, zamatshumi amahlanu, lezamatshumi.

22 Benze babe ngabahluleli babantu ngezikhathi zonke, kodwa kabalethe wonke amacala anzima kuwe bona baqume amacala alula. Lokho kuzakwenza ukuthi umthwalo wakho ube lula ngoba bazabe besabelana lawe.

23 Nxa ungakwenza lokhu njengokulaya kukaNkulunkulu, uzakwenelisa ukuphumuza ingqondo njalo abantu bonke laba bazabuyela emakhaya besuthisekile.”
Kom fin oru ouinge, oana ma God El sapkin, kom ac fah tia totola, ac mwet inge nukewa ac ku in folok nu acn selos ke inse misla mweyen elya lalos uh akwoyeyukla.”
24 UMosi wamlalela uyisezala wenza konke ayekutshilo.

25 Wakhetha amadoda alamandla phakathi kwabako-Israyeli wonke wawenza abakhokheli babantu, izinduna zezinkulungwane, ezamakhulu, ezamatshumi amahlanu lezamatshumi.

26 Baba ngabahluleli babantu ngazozonke izikhathi. Amacala anzima bawaletha kuMosi, kodwa alula bawathonisa bona ngokwabo.
In pacl sac fahla, mwet inge elos oru orekma lun mwet nununku nu sin mwet Israel. Ma yohk ac upa elos us nu yorol Moses, ac elos sifacna wotela amei srisrik.
27 UMosi wavalelisana loyisezala, uJethro wasebuyela elizweni lakhe.
Na Moses el wilkas nu sel Jethro, ac Jethro el folokla nu yen sel ah.
