U-Eksodusi 2
1 Kwasekusithi eyinye indoda esizweni sakoLevi yathatha owesifazane ongumLevi,
Na Lewini bi waree ɔbea bi fii Lewi abusuakuw mu.
2 wazithwala wabeletha indodana. Wabona ukuthi umntwana wayemuhle kakhulu, wasemfihla okwezinyanga ezintathu.
Ɔbea no nyinsɛn woo abarimaa. Abofra no na huu sɛ ne ho yɛ fɛ yiye nti ɔde no siee fie asram abiɛsa.
3 Kodwa kwathi lapho sekusehlula ukuthi amfihle, wenza isitsha semizi, wasibhada ngodaka lengcino. Wafaka umntwana phakathi kwaso wayasibeka okhunjini lomfula uNayili phakathi kwemihlanga.
Eduu bere bi no, na ɔde no sie a ɛnyɛ yiye nti, ɔde mfea nwenee kɛntɛn bi de ɛhyɛ ne ama faa ho sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, nsu rentumi nkɔ mu. Ɔde abofra no too mu de no kosii asu Nil konkɔn so wɔ wura a na ɛwɔ hɔ no bi mu.
4 Udadewabo wema bucwala ukuba abone okwenzakala kuye.
Abofra no nuabea kogyinaa akyiri baabi a na ɔwɛn no.
5 Indodakazi kaFaro yehlela emfuleni ukuyageza, amantombazana ayikhangelayo ayehamba okhunjini lomfula. Yasisibona isitsha phakathi kwemihlanga yathuma incekukazi yayo ukuyasithatha.
Farao babea kɔɔ asu no mu sɛ ɔrekoguare. Bere a ɔne ne mmaawa nam asu no konkɔn so no, ohuu kɛntɛn no sɛ ɛhyɛ wuram hɔ baabi, enti ɔsomaa ne mmaawa no mu baako sɛ ɔnkɔfa mmrɛ no.
6 Yasivula yambona umntwana. Wayekhala, yasimzwela usizi yathi, “Lo ngomunye wabantwana bamaHebheru.”
Ɔde bae a obuee so no, ohuu sɛ abarimaa bi da mu a ɔresu. Asɛm no yɛɛ no awerɛhow. Ɔkae se, “Ɔyɛ Hebrifo yi bi ba.”
7 Udadewabo wasesithi endodakazini kaFaro, “Ngingayakudingela omunye wabesifazane bamaHebheru ukuthi akondlele umntwana na?”
Abofra no nuabea a na ɔrewɛn no no kɔɔ ɔhene babea no nkyɛn kobisaa no se, “Menkɔfrɛ Hebrifo mmea no baako na ɔmmɛhwɛ no mma wo ana?”
8 Yasisithi, “Yebo, hamba.” Intombazana yasuka yayabiza unina womntwana.
Ɔhene babea no buae se, “Yiw.” Enti, abeawa no tuu mmirika kɔɔ fie kɔfrɛɛ abofra no na de no bae.
9 Indodakazi kaFaro yathi kuye, “Mthathe lumntwana ungondlele yena, ngizakupha isondlo.” Ngakho owesifazane wamthatha umntwana wamondla.
Ɔhene babea no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa abofra no kɔ fie na kɔhwɛ no ma me na metua wo ho ka.” Enti ɔde no kɔɔ fie kɔhwɛɛ no.
10 Esekhulile umntwana, wamthatha wamusa endodakazini kaFaro wasesiba ngumntanayo. Yasimutha ibizo yathi nguMosi ngoba yathi, “Ngamkhupha emanzini.”
Onyin kakra no, ɔde no brɛɛ ɔhene babea no ma ogyee no de no yɛɛ ne ba. Ɔkae se, “Mɛto ne din Mose efisɛ miyii no fii nsu mu.”
11 Ngelinye ilanga, uMosi esekhulile, waya lapho okwakusebenzela khona abantu bakibo, wabona ukuthi babethwele nzima kanjani. Wabona umGibhithe etshaya umHebheru, omunye wabantu bakibo.
Mose nyin no, da bi, ɔkɔsraa ne manfo Hebrifo no. Oduu hɔ no, ohuu sɛ ne manfo no reyɛ adwumaden. Nsrahwɛ no mu na Mose huu sɛ Misraimni bi reboro Hebrini a ɔyɛ ne nua.
12 Wathi thala ngapha langapha wabona kungelamuntu, wasebulala umGibhithe wamfihla etshebetshebeni.
Mose hwɛɛ ha hwɛɛ ha huu sɛ obiara nni hɔ no, okum Misraimni no tutuu nwea mu de no hyɛɛ hɔ.
13 Ngelanga elilandelayo waphuma njalo wabona amaHebheru amabili esilwa. Wasebuza lo owayephambanisile wathi, “Kungani utshaya owakini ongumHebheru na?”
Ade kyee no, ɔsan kɔɔ Hebrifo no nsrahwɛ. Oduu hɔ no, na wɔn mu baanu reko. Obisaa nea nʼasɛm nyɛ dɛ no se, “Dɛn na woreyɛ yi a worebobɔ wo nua Hebrini saa?”
14 Indoda leyo yathi, “Ngubani okwenze waba ngumbusi lomahluleli wethu? Usucabanga ukungibulala na njengoba ubulele umGibhithe?” Ngalokho uMosi wesaba wacabanga ukuthi, “Engxenye engikwenzileyo sekusazakala.”
Ɔbarima no nso bisaa no se, “Wufi he? Hena na ɔde wo yɛɛ yɛn sodifo ne temmufo? Anaasɛ woayɛ wʼadwene sɛ wobekum me sɛnea nnɛra wukum Misraimni no?” Mose huu sɛ bɔne a wayɛ no ho ada hɔ no, osuroe.
15 Kwathi uFaro ekuzwa lokho, wazama ukubulala uMosi, kodwa uMosi wabalekela eMidiyani, lapho afika khona wahlala phansi eduze komthombo.
Na Farao nso tee asɛm no, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔnkɔfa Mose mmra na wonkum no. Nanso Mose guan kɔɔ Midian asase so. Da bi a Mose kɔtenaa abura bi ho wɔ hɔ no,
16 Umphristi waseMidiyani wayelamadodakazi ayisikhombisa, afika ezokukha amanzi lokukhelela imikolo ukuze anathise izimvu zikayise.
Midian sɔfo mmabea baason bi baa hɔ sɛ wɔrebɛtow nsu de akɔma wɔn papa nguan.
17 Kwafika abelusi abathile bawaxotsha, kodwa uMosi wasukuma wawalamulela wanathisa izimvu zawo.
Nanso nguanhwɛfo bi pampam mmeawa no. Mose begyee wɔn fii nguanhwɛfo no nsam maa mmeawa no nguan no nsu nomee.
18 Kwathi izintombi sezibuyele kuyise eRuweli wazibuza esithi, “Kungani lamhla liphangisile ukuphenduka?”
Wɔsan koduu wɔn agya Reuel nkyɛn no, obisaa wɔn se, “Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na nnɛ de, munyaa nsu maa nguan yi nom ntɛm sɛɛ?”
19 Zaphendula zathi, “KulomGibhithe osilamulele kubelusi. Uze wasikhelela amanzi wanathisa lezimvu zethu.”
Wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn agya se, “Misraimni bi na ogyee yɛn fii nguanhwɛfo no nsam. Ɔno ara na ɔtow nsu no maa yɛn nguan no nomee.”
20 Wawabuza amadodakazi akhe wathi, “Ungaphi? Limtshiyeleni? Mbizeni ukuze azothola okokudla.”
Wɔn agya bisae se, “Na ɔwɔ he? Mugyaw no wɔ hɔ ana? Monkɔfrɛ no na ommedidi.”
21 UMosi wavuma ukuzehlala lale indoda, eyamnika indodakazi yayo uZiphora ukuthi abe ngumkakhe.
Mose kɔɔ Reuel frɛ no. Akyiri no, ɔne wɔn kɔtenae, maa Reuel de ne babea Sipora maa no aware.
22 UZiphora wazala indodana, uMosi wayitha ibizo wathi nguGeshomu ngoba esithi, “Sengibe ngumuntu wezizweni endaweni yabezizweni.”
Wɔwoo ɔbabarima maa Mose too no din Gersom, ase ne Ɔhɔho, efisɛ Mose kyerɛ ase se, “Meyɛ ɔhɔho wɔ ananafo asase so.”
23 Emva kwesikhathi eside, inkosi yaseGibhithe yafa. Abako-Israyeli bakhala babubula ebugqilini babo, kwasekusithi ukukhala kwabo becela usizo ngenxa yobugqili ababekubo kwafinyelela kuNkulunkulu.
Mfe bi akyi no, Misraimhene no wui. Na Israelfo no resi apini wɔ wɔn nkoasom no mu. Enti na wɔresu frɛ Onyankopɔn.
24 UNkulunkulu wakuzwa ukububula kwabo wasekhumbula isivumelwano asenza lo-Abhrahama, lo-Isaka loJakhobe.
Onyankopɔn nso tiee wɔn sufrɛ no, kaee bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob sɛ ɔde nʼasefo bɛsan aba Kanaan asase so no.
25 Ngakho uNkulunkulu wakhangela abako-Israyeli, wakhathazeka ngabo.
Onyankopɔn hwɛ huu sɛ bere adu sɛ ogye wɔn.
