U-Eksodusi 33
1 UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Suka kule indawo wena labantu owabakhupha elizweni laseGibhithe, uye elizweni engalithembisa u-Abhrahama lo-Isaka loJakhobe ngifunga ngisithi, ‘Ngizalinika inzalo yakho.’
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Kplɔ ame siwo nèkplɔ tso Egipte la, yi anyigba si ŋugbe medo na Abraham, Isak kple Yakob la dzi, elabena megblɔ be, ‘Matsɔ anyigba sia ana miaƒe dzidzimeviwo.’
2 Ngizathuma ingilosi ihambe phambi kwakho ixotshe amaKhenani, ama-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi.
Madɔ Mawudɔla aɖe ɖa wòakplɔ mi, eye manya Kanaantɔwo, Amoritɔwo, Hititɔwo, Perizitɔwo, Hivitɔwo kple Yebusitɔwo ɖa le anyigba la dzi.
3 Yana elizweni eligeleza uchago loluju. Kodwa mina angiyikuhamba lani ngoba lingabantu abantamo zilukhuni, hlezi ngilibhubhise endleleni.”
Enye anyigba aɖe si dzi ‘notsi kple anyitsi bɔ ɖo.’ Ke nyemazɔ kpli mi o, elabena mienye dukɔ kɔlialiatɔwo kple setemanɔlawo, eye mava di be matsrɔ̃ mi le mɔa dzi.”
4 Kwathi lapho abantu sebezwe amazwi la adabukisayo baqalisa ukukhala, akwaze kwaba loyedwa owagqiza izigqizo zakhe.
Esi ameawo se ŋɔdzinya siawo la, wode asi konyifafa me, eye woɖe woƒe sikanuwo kple atsyɔ̃ɖonuwo da ɖi.
5 Phela uThixo wayethe kuMosi, “Tshela abako-Israyeli uthi, ‘Lina lingabantu abantamo zilukhuni. Nxa ngingahamba lani loba okomzuzwana nje, ngingalibhubhisa. Khathesi khululani izigqizo zenu; ngizakwenza isinqumo ukuthi ngenzeni ngani.’”
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be wòagblɔ na Israelviawo be, “Mienye aglãdzelawo kple kɔlialiatɔwo. Ne menɔ mia dome aɖabaƒoƒo ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã la, matsrɔ̃ mi. Miɖe miaƒe sikanuwo kple atsyɔ̃ɖonuwo da ɖi va se ɖe esime maɖo kpe nu si mawɔ kpli mi la dzi.”
6 Ngakho-ke abako-Israyeli bazikhipha izigqizo zabo entabeni yeHorebhi.
Ale le nu sia megbe la, Israelviwo megado sikanu aɖeke le Horeb.
7 UMosi wayejwayele ukuthatha ithente ayelimisa ngaphandle bucwadlana lezihonqo. Walibiza ngokuthi “lithente lokuhlangana.” Ubani lobani owayedinga uThixo wayesiya ethenteni lokuhlangana ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
Mose tua agbadɔ la ɣe sia ɣi ɖe adzɔge ʋĩi tso asaɖa la gbɔ. Ena ŋkɔe be, “Agbadɔ Hena Gododo Mawu.” Ame sia ame si di be yeaƒo nu kple Yehowa la yia afi ma.
8 Kwakusithi-ke lapho uMosi ephuma esiya kulelothente abantu bonke babesukuma bame eminyango yamathente abo bakhangele uMosi aze angene ethenteni.
Ne Mose yina agbadɔ la gbɔ la, ameawo katã tsia tsitre ɖe woƒe agbadɔwo nu, eye wonɔa Mose kpɔm va se ɖe esime wòaɖo agbadɔ la nu.
9 Kwakusithi uMosi esengena ethenteni insika yeyezi yehlele phansi ime emnyango wethente lapho uThixo ekhuluma loMosi.
Ne ege ɖe agbadɔ la me la, lilikpo dodo aɖe ɖiɖina va nɔa agbadɔ la nu le esime Mawu ƒoa nu kple Mose.
10 Kwakusithi abantu bangabona insika yeyezi isimi emnyango wethente basukume bonke bakhonze; lowo lalowo emnyango wethente lakhe.
Ekema ameawo katã doa gbe ɖa eye wodea ta agu na lilikpo la le woƒe agbadɔwo nu.
11 UThixo wayekhuluma loMosi ubuso ngobuso njengomuntu ekhuluma lomngane wakhe. Ngemva kwalokho uMosi wayebuyela ezihonqweni, kodwa umncedisi wakhe owayesesemncane, uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, wayengasuki ethenteni.
Yehowa ƒoa nu kple Mose ŋkume kple ŋkume le Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la me abe ale si xɔlɔ̃ ƒoa nu kple xɔlɔ̃ ene. Le esia megbe la, Mose trɔna vaa asaɖa la me, ke Yosua, Nun ƒe viŋutsu, ɖekakpui si kpena ɖe eŋu la, nɔa agbadɔ la me.
12 UMosi wathi kuThixo, “Ubulokhu ungitshela usithi, ‘Khokhela abantu laba,’ kodwa kawungazisanga ukuthi ngubani ozamthuma ukuba ahambe lami. Utshilo wathi, ‘Ngiyakwazi ngebizo, njalo ufumene umusa kimi.’
Mose gblɔ na Yehowa le agbadɔ la me be, “Ègblɔna nam be, ‘Kplɔ dukɔ sia yi Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi.’ Ke mègblɔ ame si nàɖo ɖa kplim la nam o. Ègblɔ be yenyam kple nye ŋkɔ, eye yeƒe amenuveve la li kplim.
13 Nxa uthokoza ngami, ngifundisa izindlela zakho ukuze ngikwazi, ngiqhubeke ngithola umusa kuwe. Khumbula futhi lokuthi isizwe lesi singabantu bakho.”
Ne esia le eme alea pɛpɛpɛ la, ekema meɖe kuku, fia wò mɔwom ale be mase wò ɖoɖowo gɔme, eye mawɔ nu si adze ŋuwò. Ɖo ŋku edzi be yeƒe dukɔe nye dukɔ sia.”
14 UThixo waphendula wathi, “NgoBukhona bami ngizahamba lawe ngikuphumuze.”
Yehowa ɖo eŋu be, “Nye ŋutɔ mayi kpli mi, eye mana nu sia nu nadze edzi na mi.”
15 UMosi wathi kuye, “Nxa uBukhona bakho bungahambi lathi, ungasisusi lapha.
Mose xɔ edzi be, “Ne mèle yiyi ge kpli mí o la, ekema mègana míaɖe afɔ ɖeka tso afi sia o.
16 Umuntu angakwazi njani ukuthi mina labantu bakho sifumene umusa kuwe ngaphandle kokuba uhamba lathi na? Kuyini okunye okungasiphawula, mina labantu bakho, kwabanye abantu bonke emhlabeni na?”
Ne mèyi kpli mí o la, ame kae akpɔ be wò amenuveve li kplim kple nye amewo? Ame kae akpɔ be míeto vovo tso dukɔ bubu ɖe sia ɖe si le anyigba dzi la gbɔ?”
17 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ngizakwenza khona kanye lokhu okucelileyo ngoba ngiyathokoza ngawe, njalo ngikwazi ngebizo.”
Yehowa ɖo eŋu na Mose be, “Ɛ̃, mawɔ nu si nèbia la na wò, elabena vavã, nye amenuveve le dziwò, eye menya wò kple wò ŋkɔ.”
18 UMosi wasesithi, “Ngicela ukuba ungitshengise inkazimulo yakho.”
Mose bia Mawu be wòana yeakpɔ eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe.
19 UThixo wasesithi, “Ngizakwenza ukulunga kwami kudlule phambi kwakho, njalo ngizamemezela ibizo lami, uThixo, phambi kwakho. Ngizakuba lesihawu kulowo engizakuba lesihawu kuye njalo ngibe lesisa kulowo engizakuba lesisa kuye.”
Yehowa ɖo eŋu be, “Mana nye ŋutikɔkɔe nato wò ŋkume ayi. Maɖe gbeƒã nye ŋkɔ Yehowa kple eƒe gɔmesese le ŋgɔwò. Mevea ame si nu medi be mave la nu, eye mekpɔa nublanui na ame si medi be makpɔ nublanui na.
20 UThixo waqhubeka wathi, “Kodwa, ubuso bami awungeke ububone, ngoba kakho ongangibona aphile.”
Ke màkpɔ nye ŋkume ya o, elabena ame aɖeke makpɔ nye ŋkume, eye wòaganɔ agbe o.
21 UThixo wabuya wathi, “Kulendawo phansi kwami lapho ongema khona phezu kwedwala.
Tsi tsitre ɖe agakpe sia dzi le gbɔnye.
22 Kuzakuthi lapho inkazimulo yami isedlula eduze, ngizakufaka emnkenkeni wedwala ngikusithe ngesandla sami ngize ngidlule.
Ne nye ŋutikɔkɔe tso eme va yina la, matsɔ wò ade agakpe la tome. Matsɔ nye asi atsyɔ dziwò va se ɖe esime matso eme.
23 Emva kwalokho ngizasusa isandla sami ubone umhlane wami; kodwa ubuso bami akumelanga ububone.”
Ekema maɖe nye asi ɖa, eye nàkpɔ yonyeme. Màkpɔ nye ŋkume ya o.”
