1 Kwasekusithi eyinye indoda esizweni sakoLevi yathatha owesifazane ongumLevi,
Ŋutsu aɖe si nye Levitɔ la ɖe nyɔnu aɖe si hã nye Levitɔ.
2 wazithwala wabeletha indodana. Wabona ukuthi umntwana wayemuhle kakhulu, wasemfihla okwezinyanga ezintathu.
Nyɔnu la fɔ fu, eye wòdzi ŋutsuvi. Esi nyɔnu la kpɔ be ye viŋutsu la dze ɖeka ŋutɔ la, eɣlae ɖe aƒe me ɣleti etɔ̃.
3 Kodwa kwathi lapho sekusehlula ukuthi amfihle, wenza isitsha semizi, wasibhada ngodaka lengcino. Wafaka umntwana phakathi kwaso wayasibeka okhunjini lomfula uNayili phakathi kwemihlanga.
Ke esi wòkpɔ be yemagate ŋu aɣlae wòadidi wu nenema o la, etsɔ aƒla lɔ̃ kusi, eye wòsi aŋɔ ɖe eme ale be tsi mate ŋu age ɖe eme o. Ekɔ ɖevi la mlɔ kusi la me, eye wòtsɔe ɣla ɖe aƒla siwo le Nil tɔsisi la to la me.
4 Udadewabo wema bucwala ukuba abone okwenzakala kuye.
Ena vidzĩ la nɔvinyɔnu nɔ adzɔge vie ale be wòakpɔ nu si ava dzɔ ɖe ɖevi la dzi.
5 Indodakazi kaFaro yehlela emfuleni ukuyageza, amantombazana ayikhangelayo ayehamba okhunjini lomfula. Yasisibona isitsha phakathi kwemihlanga yathuma incekukazi yayo ukuyasithatha.
Nu si va dzɔe nye be Fia Farao ƒe vinyɔnu, va tsi le ge le Nil tɔsisi la me. Esi eya kple eƒe dɔlanyɔnuwo nɔ zɔzɔm le tɔsisi la to la, ekpɔ kusi la le aƒlawo me. Edɔ eƒe dɔlanyɔnuawo dometɔ ɖeka ɖa be wòakɔe vɛ.
6 Yasivula yambona umntwana. Wayekhala, yasimzwela usizi yathi, “Lo ngomunye wabantwana bamaHebheru.”
Eʋu kusi la, eye wòkpɔ vidzĩ la le eme! Ɖevi la nɔ avi fam, nu sia wɔ dɔ ɖe fiavinyɔnu la dzi, eye wògblɔ be, “Ɖevi sia nye Hebri ŋutsuviawo dometɔ ɖeka.”
7 Udadewabo wasesithi endodakazini kaFaro, “Ngingayakudingela omunye wabesifazane bamaHebheru ukuthi akondlele umntwana na?”
Vidzĩ la nɔvinyɔnu te ɖe fiavinyɔnu la ŋu, eye wòbiae be, “Mayi ɖayɔ Hebri nyɔnuawo dometɔ ɖeka wòanyi ɖevi sia na wòa?”
8 Yasisithi, “Yebo, hamba.” Intombazana yasuka yayabiza unina womntwana.
Fiavinyɔnu la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, yi!” Ale nyɔnuvi la ƒu du yi aƒe me, eye wòyɔ vidzĩa dadaa vɛ!
9 Indodakazi kaFaro yathi kuye, “Mthathe lumntwana ungondlele yena, ngizakupha isondlo.” Ngakho owesifazane wamthatha umntwana wamondla.
Fiavinyɔnu la gblɔ na vidzĩa dadaa be, “Kɔ vidzĩ sia yi aƒe me, na noe nam, eye maxe fe si adze ŋuwò la na wò!” Ale vidzĩ la dada kɔe yi aƒe me, eye wòkpɔ edzi nyuie.
10 Esekhulile umntwana, wamthatha wamusa endodakazini kaFaro wasesiba ngumntanayo. Yasimutha ibizo yathi nguMosi ngoba yathi, “Ngamkhupha emanzini.”
Esi ɖevi la tsi la, dadaa kɔe yi na Farao ƒe vinyɔnu la, eye wòzu Via ŋutsuvi. Ena ŋkɔe be Mose, si gɔmee nye “Tɔ mee woɖee tsoe,” elabena egblɔ be tsi mee yeɖee tsoe.
11 Ngelinye ilanga, uMosi esekhulile, waya lapho okwakusebenzela khona abantu bakibo, wabona ukuthi babethwele nzima kanjani. Wabona umGibhithe etshaya umHebheru, omunye wabantu bakibo.
Esi Mose tsi, eye wòzu ɖekakpui la, eɖi tsa gbe ɖeka be yeakpɔ ye nɔvi Hebritɔwo ɖa. Ekpɔ fuwɔame kple teteɖeanyi si te wonɔ. Ekpɔ Egiptetɔ aɖe wòƒo nɔvia Hebritɔ aɖe ƒu anyi.
12 Wathi thala ngapha langapha wabona kungelamuntu, wasebulala umGibhithe wamfihla etshebetshebeni.
Mose tsa ŋku mlamlamla be yeaka ɖe edzi be ame aɖeke menɔ ye kpɔm o. Ewu Egiptetɔ la, eye wòɖii ɖe ke me.
13 Ngelanga elilandelayo waphuma njalo wabona amaHebheru amabili esilwa. Wasebuza lo owayephambanisile wathi, “Kungani utshaya owakini ongumHebheru na?”
Ke esi ŋu ke la, Mose gaɖi tsa be yeaɖakpɔ ye nɔvi Hebritɔwo ɖa. Ekpɔ Hebritɔ eve wonɔ kɔ dam, eye wòbia ame si di ge la be, “Nu kae nye esi wɔm nèle, hele wò ŋutɔ nɔviwò Hebritɔ ƒom ale?”
14 Indoda leyo yathi, “Ngubani okwenze waba ngumbusi lomahluleli wethu? Usucabanga ukungibulala na njengoba ubulele umGibhithe?” Ngalokho uMosi wesaba wacabanga ukuthi, “Engxenye engikwenzileyo sekusazakala.”
Ŋutsu sia biae be, “Ame kae ɖo wò fia kple ʋɔnudrɔ̃la ɖe mía nu? Ɖe nèle didim be yeawu nye hã abe ale si nèwu Egiptetɔ ma etsɔ enea?” Vɔvɔ̃ ɖo Mose, elabena ebu xaa be, “Ɖewohĩ nu si mewɔ la le nyanya me na amewo.”
15 Kwathi uFaro ekuzwa lokho, wazama ukubulala uMosi, kodwa uMosi wabalekela eMidiyani, lapho afika khona wahlala phansi eduze komthombo.
Farao se nya la, eye wòɖe gbe be woalée, awui. Ke Mose si le Farao nu yi ɖe Midianyigba dzi, eye wònɔ anyi ɖe vudo aɖe to.
16 Umphristi waseMidiyani wayelamadodakazi ayisikhombisa, afika ezokukha amanzi lokukhelela imikolo ukuze anathise izimvu zikayise.
Ɖetugbi adre, ame siwo nye Midian nunɔla ƒe vinyɔnuwo la va be yewoaku tsi ana yewo fofo ƒe alẽha.
17 Kwafika abelusi abathile bawaxotsha, kodwa uMosi wasukuma wawalamulela wanathisa izimvu zawo.
Ke alẽkplɔla aɖewo va nya wo. Ale Mose tsi tsitre va xɔ na wo, eye wòna tsi woƒe alẽhawo.
18 Kwathi izintombi sezibuyele kuyise eRuweli wazibuza esithi, “Kungani lamhla liphangisile ukuphenduka?”
Esi ɖetugbiawo trɔ yi aƒe me la, wo fofo, Reuel bia wo be, “Nu kae na miekpɔ tsi na alẽwo egbe ya kaba nenema?”
19 Zaphendula zathi, “KulomGibhithe osilamulele kubelusi. Uze wasikhelela amanzi wanathisa lezimvu zethu.”
Woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Egiptetɔ aɖee xɔ mí le alẽkplɔla mawo ƒe asi me, eye wòku tsi na míaƒe alẽhawo.”
20 Wawabuza amadodakazi akhe wathi, “Ungaphi? Limtshiyeleni? Mbizeni ukuze azothola okokudla.”
Wo fofo gblɔ na wo be, “Nu ka ta miegblẽe ɖe afi ma ɖo? Miyi miakplɔe vɛ wòaɖu nu kpli mí.”
21 UMosi wavuma ukuzehlala lale indoda, eyamnika indodakazi yayo uZiphora ukuthi abe ngumkakhe.
Mose xɔ Reuel ƒe kpekpe la, eye wòlɔ̃ be yeanɔ egbɔ. Reuel tsɔ via si woyɔna be Zipora la nɛ wòɖe.
22 UZiphora wazala indodana, uMosi wayitha ibizo wathi nguGeshomu ngoba esithi, “Sengibe ngumuntu wezizweni endaweni yabezizweni.”
Wodzi ŋutsuvi ɖeka si wona ŋkɔe be Gersom si gɔmee nye “Amedzro,” elabena Mose gblɔ be, “Amedzroe menye le dzronyigba dzi.”
23 Emva kwesikhathi eside, inkosi yaseGibhithe yafa. Abako-Israyeli bakhala babubula ebugqilini babo, kwasekusithi ukukhala kwabo becela usizo ngenxa yobugqili ababekubo kwafinyelela kuNkulunkulu.
Le ƒe aɖewo megbe la, Egipte fia la ku. Israelviwo nɔ konyi fam henɔ hũu ɖem le woƒe kɔkutiwo te le woƒe kluvinyenye ta, eye wonɔ avi fam vevie le Mawu ŋkume. Woƒe avifafa ɖo Mawu gbɔ le dziƒo.
24 UNkulunkulu wakuzwa ukububula kwabo wasekhumbula isivumelwano asenza lo-Abhrahama, lo-Isaka loJakhobe.
Mawu se woƒe konyifafa, eye wòɖo ŋku eƒe ŋugbedodo na Abraham, Isak kple Yakob dzi.
25 Ngakho uNkulunkulu wakhangela abako-Israyeli, wakhathazeka ngabo.
Ale Mawu kpɔ Israelviwo ƒe nublanui, eye wòtsɔ ɖe le eme na wo.
