1 Kwathi uMosi eselusa izimvu zikayisezala uJethro, umphristi waseMidiyani, waseqhuba izimvu zaya kude ohlangothini lwenkangala wasefika eHorebhi, intaba kaNkulunkulu.
Museen bushaayee abbaa niitii isaa Yetroo lubicha Midiyaan sanaa tiksaa ture; innis gaaf tokko hamma dhiʼa lafa gammoojjiitti bushaayee sana oofee gara tulluu Waaqaa gara Kooreeb dhufe.
2 Lapho-ke ingilosi kaThixo yabonakala kuye iphakathi kwamalangabi omlilo esixukwini. UMosi wabona ukuthi loba isixuku sasibhebha kasizange sitshe.
Achittis Ergamaan Waaqayyoo daggala bobaʼu keessaa arraba ibiddaa keessaan isatti mulʼate. Museenis daggalli sun bobaʼu illee akka hin gubatin arge.
3 Ngakho uMosi wacabanga esithi, “Ngizasondela ngiyebona isimanga lesi ukuba kungani isixuku singatshi silothe.”
Museenis, “Daggalli kun maaliif hin gubatu laata? Ani itti goree waan dinqisiisaa kana ilaaluu qaba” jedhe.
4 Kwathi uThixo ebona ukuthi usesondele ukuba ayekhangela, uNkulunkulu wasememeza ngelizwi elaliphuma kulesosixuku wathi, “Mosi! Mosi!” UMosi wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Waaqayyos yommuu akka Museen ilaaluuf achi gore argetti, Waaqni daggala sana keessaa, “Musee! Musee!” jedhee isa waame. Museenis, “Kunoo ani asan jira” jedhee deebise.
5 UNkulunkulu wathi, “Ungasondeli. Khupha amanyathela akho, ngoba indawo omi kuyo ingumhlabathi ongcwele.”
Waaqni immoo, “As hin dhiʼaatin; Sababii iddoon ati dhaabatu kun qulqulluu taʼeef kophee kee baafadhu” jedheen.
6 Wasesithi njalo, “NginguNkulunkulu kayihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe.” Ngalokhu, uMosi wafihla ubuso bakhe ngoba wayesesaba ukukhangela uNkulunkulu.
Itti fufees, “Ani Waaqa abbaa keetii, Waaqa Abrahaam, Waaqa Yisihaaqii fi Waaqa Yaaqoob” jedhe. Kana irratti Museen Waaqa ilaaluu waan sodaateef fuula isaa dhokfate.
7 UThixo wasesithi, “Impela ngilubonile usizi lwabantu bami eGibhithe. Ngibazwile bekhala ngenxa yezinduna zezigqili ezibancindezelayo, njalo ngiyakhathazeka ngokuhlupheka kwabo.
Waaqayyo akkana jedhe; “Ani dhugumaan dhiphina saba koo warra Gibxi keessa jiraatan irra gaʼu argeera. Iyya isaan warra humnaan isaan hojjechiisan jalaa baʼuuf iyyanis dhagaʼeera; ani rakkina isaaniis nan beeka.
8 Ngakho ngehlile ukuzabakhulula ezandleni zamaGibhithe ngibakhuphe kulelolizwe ngibase elizweni elilendawo enengi, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, endaweni yamaKhenani, amaHithi, ama-Amori, amaPherizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi.
Kanaafuu ani harka warra Gibxiitii isaan baasee gara biyya gaarii fi balʼaatti, biyya aannanii fi dammi keessaa burquutti jechuunis gara biyya Kanaʼaanotaatti, Heetotaatti, Amoorotaatti, Feerzotaatti, Hiiwotaattii fi Yebuusotaatti ol isaan baasuuf jedhee gad buʼeera.
9 Ukukhala kwabako-Israyeli sekufikile kimi, njalo sengibonile lendlela amaGibhithe ababahlukuluza ngayo.
Amma kunoo iyyi Israaʼelootaa na bira gaʼeera. Ani haala itti warri Gibxi isaan cunqursanis argeera.
10 Ngakho suka uhambe. Ngikuthuma kuFaro ukuthi uyekhupha abantu bami abako-Israyeli elizweni laseGibhithe.”
Kanaafuu ati amma dhaqi. Ani akka ati saba koo Israaʼeloota Gibxi keessaa baaftuuf Faraʼoonitti sin erga.”
11 Kodwa uMosi wathi kuNkulunkulu, “Kambe ngingubani ukuba ngiye kuFaro ukuyakhupha abako-Israyeli elizweni laseGibhithe na?”
Museen garuu Waaqaan, “Faraʼoon bira dhaqee Gibxii Israaʼeloota baasuuf ani eenyu?” jedhe.
12 UNkulunkulu wasesithi, “Ngizakuba lawe. Lesi sizakuba yisibonakaliso sokuthi yimi engikuthumileyo: Nxa usubakhuphile abantu eGibhithe, lizakhonza uNkulunkulu kuyonale intaba.”
Waaqnis akkana jedhe; “Ani si wajjin nan taʼa. Ati saba sana Gibxii yommuu baaftutti isin tulluu kana irratti Waaqa waaqeffattu. Si erguu kootiifis kun mallattoo siif taʼa.”
13 UMosi wathi kuNkulunkulu, “Aluba ngifika kwabako-Israyeli ngithi kubo, ‘UNkulunkulu waboyihlo ungithumile kini,’ besebengibuza bathi, ‘Ungubani ibizo lakhe?’ Ngizakuthini kubo?”
Museen immoo Waaqaan, “Kunoo ani gara Israaʼelootaa dhaqee, ‘Waaqni abbaa keessanii na ergeera’ yommun jedhutti yoo isaan, ‘Maqaan isaa eenyu?’ jedhanii na gaafatan, ani maal jedheen isaanitti hima?” jedhe.
14 UNkulunkulu wathi kuMosi, “Nginguye Onguye. Lokhu yikho ozakutsho kwabako-Israyeli ukuthi, ‘Unguye ungithumile kini.’”
Waaqnis Museedhaan, “ANI ANUMA; ati saba Israaʼeliin, ‘Inni ANI ANUMA jedhu sun gara keessanitti na ergeera’ jedhi” jedheen.
15 UNkulunkulu wabuye wathi kuMosi, “Tshono kwabako-Israyeli uthi, ‘uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe ungithumile kini.’ Leli libizo lami laphakade, ibizo engizakhunjulwa ngalo kusukela kusizukulwane kusiya kwesinye isizukulwane.
Waaqni ammas Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii, Waaqni Abrahaam, Waaqni Yisihaaq, Waaqni Yaaqoob isinitti na ergeera.’ “Maqaan kun bara baraan maqaa koo ti; maqaa ani dhalootaa hamma dhalootaatti ittiin yaadatamuu dha.
16 Hamba uyebuthanisa abadala bako-Israyeli uthi kubo, ‘uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, ka-Isaka loJakhobe, ubonakele kimi wathi: Bengilikhangele njalo ngikubonile okwenziwe kini eGibhithe.
“Dhaqii maanguddoota Israaʼel walitti qabiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii, Waaqni Abrahaam, kan Yisihaaqii fi kan Yaaqoob natti mulʼatee akkana jedhe: “Ani isin ilaaleera; waan Gibxitti isin irra gaʼes argeera.
17 Futhi ngithembisile ukulikhupha osizini lwenu elikulo eGibhithe ngilise elizweni lamaKhenani, amaHithi, ama-Amori, amaPherizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju.’
Kanaafuu ani rakkina Gibxi keessaa isin baasee biyya aannanii fi dammi keessaa burqu jechuunis biyya Kanaʼaanotaa, Heetotaa, Amoorotaa, Feerzotaa, Hiiwotaatii fi biyya Yebuusotaatti isin geessuuf murteesseera.”’
18 Abadala bako-Israyeli bazakulalela. Kuzakuthi wena kanye labadala liye enkosini yaseGibhithe lithi kuyo, ‘uThixo, uNkulunkulu wamaHebheru uhlangane lathi. Sivumele sithathe uhambo lwezinsuku ezintathu siye enkangala ukuyanikela imihlatshelo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.’
“Maanguddoonni Israaʼel si dhagaʼu. Atii fi maanguddoonni Israaʼel mootii Gibxi bira dhaqxanii, ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Ibrootaa nutti mulʼateera; egaa amma akka nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaaf aarsaa dhiʼeessinuuf gara gammoojjiitti karaa guyyaa sadii nuu eeyyami’ jettuun.
19 Kodwa ngiyakwazi ukuthi inkosi yaseGibhithe ayiyikulivumela ukuthi lihambe ngaphandle kokuba incindezelwe yisandla esilamandla.
Garuu akka mootiin Gibxi yoo irreen jabaan isa dirqisiise malee deemuuf isinii hin eeyyamne anuu beeka.
20 Ngakho ngizakwelula isandla sami ngiwatshaye amaGibhithe ngazozonke izimanga engizazenza phakathi kwawo. Ngemva kwalokho, izalivumela lihambe.
Ani dinqii isaan gidduutti hojjedhu hundaan irree koo hiixadhee namoota Gibxi nan dhaʼa. Ergasii inni akka deemtan isiniif eeyyama.
21 Njalo ngizakwenza amaGibhithe abe lomusa kulababantu, ukuze kuthi mhla lisuka lingahambi lingaphethe lutho.
“Anis akka sabni kun fuula warra Gibxi duratti surraa argatu nan godha; isinis yommuu Gibxii baatanitti harka duwwaa hin baatan.
22 Wonke owesifazane kacele kumakhelwane wakhe lakuye wonke owesifazane ohlala endlini yakhe izinto eziligugu ezenziwe ngesiliva legolide kanye lezigqoko ezizagqokwa ngamadodana lamadodakazi enu. Ngaleyondlela lizawemuka impahla amaGibhithe.”
Tokkoon tokkoon dubartii miʼa meetii, miʼa warqeetii fi uffata gaafattee ollaa isheettii fi dubartii mana ishee jiraattu irraa haa fudhattu; kanaanis ilmaanii fi intallan keessanitti uffiftu. Akkasiinis qabeenya warra Gibxi boojitanii baatu.”
