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.’
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu, pea hiki ʻi heni, ʻa koe mo e kakai ʻaia kuo ke ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ki he fonua ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea kia Sēkope, ʻo pehē, Te u foaki ia ki ho hako:
2 Ngizathuma ingilosi ihambe phambi kwakho ixotshe amaKhenani, ama-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi.
Pea te u fekau ha ʻāngelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe: pea te u kapusi ʻae kakai Kēnani, mo e kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Heti, mo e kau Pelesi, ko e kau Hevi, pea mo e kau Sepusi:
3 Yana elizweni eligeleza uchago loluju. Kodwa mina angiyikuhamba lani ngoba lingabantu abantamo zilukhuni, hlezi ngilibhubhise endleleni.”
[Mou ʻalu ]ki he fonua mahu tāfea ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi: ka ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu hake ʻi homou lotolotonga; he ko e kakai kia kekeva koe: telia naʻaku fakaʻauha koe ʻi he hala.”
4 Kwathi lapho abantu sebezwe amazwi la adabukisayo baqalisa ukukhala, akwaze kwaba loyedwa owagqiza izigqizo zakhe.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae kakai ki he ongoongo kovi ni, naʻa nau tangi: pea naʻe ʻikai ʻai ʻe ha tangata haʻa ne teunga.
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.’”
He naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Tala ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koe kakai kia kekeva ʻakimoutolu: Te u ʻalu atu ki loto ʻiate koe ʻi he kemo pe taha, ʻo fakaʻauha koe; ko ia ke ke tukuange ai ʻae ngaahi teunga ʻiate koe, kaeʻoua ke u ʻilo ai ha meʻa ke fai kiate koe.”
6 Ngakho-ke abako-Israyeli bazikhipha izigqizo zabo entabeni yeHorebhi.
Pea naʻe vete ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻenau ngaahi teunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻi he moʻunga ko Holepi.
7 UMosi wayejwayele ukuthatha ithente ayelimisa ngaphandle bucwadlana lezihonqo. Walibiza ngokuthi “lithente lokuhlangana.” Ubani lobani owayedinga uThixo wayesiya ethenteni lokuhlangana ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
Pea naʻe hiki ʻe Mōsese ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi tuaʻā mei he ʻapitanga, ʻo mamaʻo atu mei he ʻapitanga, ʻo ne ui ia ko e Fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai. Pea naʻe pehē, ko ia kotoa pē naʻe kumi kia Sihova naʻe ʻalu ia kituaʻā ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻaia naʻe ʻi tuaʻā mei he ʻapitanga.
8 Kwakusithi-ke lapho uMosi ephuma esiya kulelothente abantu bonke babesukuma bame eminyango yamathente abo bakhangele uMosi aze angene ethenteni.
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻalu kituaʻā ʻa Mōsese ki he fale fehikitaki, naʻe tuʻu hake leva ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo tuʻu ʻae tangata taki taha ʻi he matapā ʻo hono fale fehikitaki, ke sio atu kia Mōsese, ke ʻoua ke hū ia ki he fale fehikitaki.
9 Kwakusithi uMosi esengena ethenteni insika yeyezi yehlele phansi ime emnyango wethente lapho uThixo ekhuluma loMosi.
Pea ʻi he hū ʻa Mōsese ki he fale fehikitaki, naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻae pou ʻao, pea tuʻu ia ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki, pea alea[ʻa Sihova ]mo Mōsese.
10 Kwakusithi abantu bangabona insika yeyezi isimi emnyango wethente basukume bonke bakhonze; lowo lalowo emnyango wethente lakhe.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ki he pou ʻao ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki: pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo hū, ʻo taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi he matapā ʻo hono fale fehikitaki.
11 UThixo wayekhuluma loMosi ubuso ngobuso njengomuntu ekhuluma lomngane wakhe. Ngemva kwalokho uMosi wayebuyela ezihonqweni, kodwa umncedisi wakhe owayesesemncane, uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, wayengasuki ethenteni.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ko e mata ki he mata, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻae tangata ki hono kāinga. Pea naʻe liu mai ia ki he ʻapitanga; he ko hono tauhi, ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ko e tangata talavou, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu ia mei he fale fehikitaki.
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.’
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku ke pehē mai kiate au, Ke ke ʻohake ʻae kakai ni: pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke fakahā kiate au, pe ko hai ia te ke fekau ke ma ō mo au. Ka kuo ke tala mai, ʻOku ou ʻilo koe ʻi ho hingoa, pea kuo ʻofeina koe ʻi hoku ʻao.
13 Nxa uthokoza ngami, ngifundisa izindlela zakho ukuze ngikwazi, ngiqhubeke ngithola umusa kuwe. Khumbula futhi lokuthi isizwe lesi singabantu bakho.”
Pea ko ʻeni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, kapau kuo u maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, ke ke fakahā ni kiate au ho hala, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo koe, pea te u ʻilo ai ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao: pea ke ʻafioʻi ko e puleʻanga ni ko ho kakai.”
14 UThixo waphendula wathi, “NgoBukhona bami ngizahamba lawe ngikuphumuze.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Te u ʻalu mo koe, pea te u tuku kiate koe ʻae fiemālie.”
15 UMosi wathi kuye, “Nxa uBukhona bakho bungahambi lathi, ungasisusi lapha.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻa hoʻo ʻafio mo au, ʻoua naʻa ke fetuku hake ʻakimautolu ʻi heni.
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?”
He koeʻuhi ʻe ʻilo ni ʻi he ha kuo ʻofeina au mo hoʻo kakai ʻi ho ʻao? ʻIkai ʻi he meʻa ni, ʻi hoʻo ʻalu mo kimautolu? Ko ia te mau mavahe ai, ʻa au mo hoʻo kakai, mei he kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.”
17 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ngizakwenza khona kanye lokhu okucelileyo ngoba ngiyathokoza ngawe, njalo ngikwazi ngebizo.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Te u fai ʻae meʻa ni foki ʻaia kuo ke lea ki ai: he kuo ke maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻi hoku ʻao, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo koe ʻi ho hingoa.’
18 UMosi wasesithi, “Ngicela ukuba ungitshengise inkazimulo yakho.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, fakahā kiate au ho nāunau.’
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.”
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Te u fai ke hā atu ʻeku angalelei kotoa pē ʻi ho ʻao, pea te u fakahā ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova ʻi ho ʻao; pea te u ʻofa mataʻatā pe kiate ia ʻoku ou loto ke ʻofa mataʻatā pe ki ai, pea te u ʻaloʻofa kiate ia ʻoku ou loto ke ʻaloʻofa ki ai.
20 UThixo waqhubeka wathi, “Kodwa, ubuso bami awungeke ububone, ngoba kakho ongangibona aphile.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku ʻikai te ke mafai ke mamata ki hoku fofonga: he ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata te ne mamata kiate au, pea moʻui.
21 UThixo wabuya wathi, “Kulendawo phansi kwami lapho ongema khona phezu kwedwala.
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, ʻoku ai ʻae potu ʻoku ofi kiate au, pea te ke tuʻu koe ki he funga maka:
22 Kuzakuthi lapho inkazimulo yami isedlula eduze, ngizakufaka emnkenkeni wedwala ngikusithe ngesandla sami ngize ngidlule.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻalu atu ʻa hoku nāunau, te u ai koe ki he mafahi ʻoe maka, pea teu ʻufiʻufi koe ʻaki hoku nima lolotonga ʻeku ʻalu atu:
23 Emva kwalokho ngizasusa isandla sami ubone umhlane wami; kodwa ubuso bami akumelanga ububone.”
Pea te u toʻo hoku nima, pea te ke mamata ki hoku tuʻa; ka ko hoku fofonga ʻe ʻikai hā ia.”
