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.’
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Di saa nnipa a wode wɔn fi Misraim asase so no anim kɔ asase a mede hyɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob bɔ no so, efisɛ mekae se, ‘Mede saa asase yi bɛma wʼasefo.’
2 Ngizathuma ingilosi ihambe phambi kwakho ixotshe amaKhenani, ama-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi.
Mɛsoma ɔbɔfo adi wʼanim na wapam Kanaanfo, Amorifo, Hetifo, Perisifo, Hewifo ne Yebusifo.
3 Yana elizweni eligeleza uchago loluju. Kodwa mina angiyikuhamba lani ngoba lingabantu abantamo zilukhuni, hlezi ngilibhubhise endleleni.”
Ɛyɛ asase a ɛwo ne nufusu sen wɔ so. Na me ne mo rentu saa kwan no efisɛ moyɛ nnipa a mo aso yɛ den, na anyɛ a na makɔsɛe mo wɔ ɔkwan so.”
4 Kwathi lapho abantu sebezwe amazwi la adabukisayo baqalisa ukukhala, akwaze kwaba loyedwa owagqiza izigqizo zakhe.
Nnipa yi tee saa nsɛnhyew yi no, wotwaa agyaadwo na wɔworɔworɔw wɔn ho nkaa ne nnwinne nyinaa.
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.’”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se ɔnka nkyerɛ wɔn se, “Moyɛ nnipa a mo aso yɛ den. Na sɛ me ne mo tena bɛyɛ simma baako pɛ koraa mpo a, anyɛ a na matɔre mo ase. Monworɔworɔw mo nkaa ne mo nnwinne a mohyehyɛ no nyinaa na mehu nea mɛyɛ mo.”
6 Ngakho-ke abako-Israyeli bazikhipha izigqizo zabo entabeni yeHorebhi.
Eyi akyi no, obiara worɔw ne nnwinne wɔ Bepɔw Horeb so.
7 UMosi wayejwayele ukuthatha ithente ayelimisa ngaphandle bucwadlana lezihonqo. Walibiza ngokuthi “lithente lokuhlangana.” Ubani lobani owayedinga uThixo wayesiya ethenteni lokuhlangana ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
Na Mose sii ahyiae ntamadan wɔ nsraban no akyi a obiara a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔne Awurade di nkitaho no kɔ hɔ. Wɔtoo dan no din Ahyiae.
8 Kwakusithi-ke lapho uMosi ephuma esiya kulelothente abantu bonke babesukuma bame eminyango yamathente abo bakhangele uMosi aze angene ethenteni.
Bere biara a Mose bɛkɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no, nnipa no nyinaa sɔre begyina wɔn ntamadan no ano hwɛ no kosi sɛ obedu ɔdan no ano.
9 Kwakusithi uMosi esengena ethenteni insika yeyezi yehlele phansi ime emnyango wethente lapho uThixo ekhuluma loMosi.
Ɔrewura mu a, omununkum fadum behyia no wɔ ɔkwan no ano na Awurade nam mu ne Mose akasa.
10 Kwakusithi abantu bangabona insika yeyezi isimi emnyango wethente basukume bonke bakhonze; lowo lalowo emnyango wethente lakhe.
Bere biara a nnipa no behu omununkum fadum no sɛ egyina ntamadan no pon ano no, wɔn nyinaa bɛsɔre akotow nea wobehu wɔ wɔn ntamadan no pon ano no.
11 UThixo wayekhuluma loMosi ubuso ngobuso njengomuntu ekhuluma lomngane wakhe. Ngemva kwalokho uMosi wayebuyela ezihonqweni, kodwa umncedisi wakhe owayesesemncane, uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, wayengasuki ethenteni.
Ɔdan no mu, na Awurade kasa kyerɛ Mose anim ne anim, sɛnea obi ne nʼadamfo di nkɔmmɔ. Na sɛ Mose san kɔ nsraban no hɔ a, aberante a ɔboa no a wɔfrɛ no Yosua (Nun ba) no de, ɔtena Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu ara kosi sɛ Mose bɛsan aba.
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 ka kyerɛɛ Awurade se, “Daa woka kyerɛ me se, ‘Fa saa nnipa yi kɔ bɔhyɛ asase no so, nanso wonkyerɛɛ me onipa a ɔnka me ho ne me nkɔ. Wuse woyɛ mʼadamfo a woayɛ me adɔe bebree.’
13 Nxa uthokoza ngami, ngifundisa izindlela zakho ukuze ngikwazi, ngiqhubeke ngithola umusa kuwe. Khumbula futhi lokuthi isizwe lesi singabantu bakho.”
Na sɛ saa na ɛte a, di mʼanim kyerɛ me faako a ɛyɛ wo pɛ sɛ mefa na ama mate wo ase na mafa wo kwan so pɛpɛɛpɛ. Na mma wo werɛ mfi sɛ saa ɔman yi yɛ wo nkurɔfo.”
14 UThixo waphendula wathi, “NgoBukhona bami ngizahamba lawe ngikuphumuze.”
Na Awurade buaa no se, “Mʼankasa me ne wo bɛkɔ na woadi nkonim.”
15 UMosi wathi kuye, “Nxa uBukhona bakho bungahambi lathi, ungasisusi lapha.
Nanso Mose kae se, “Sɛ wo ne yɛn renkɔ de a, mma yemmfi ha nnkɔ.
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?”
Sɛ wo ne yɛn ankɔ a, hena na obehu sɛ me ne me nkurɔfo anya wo hɔ adom a ama nsonoe abɛda yɛn ne asase sofo a wɔaka no ntam?”
17 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ngizakwenza khona kanye lokhu okucelileyo ngoba ngiyathokoza ngawe, njalo ngikwazi ngebizo.”
Awurade buaa Mose se, “Ampa ara, mɛyɛ wʼabisade ama wo, efisɛ woanya ahummɔbɔ afi me nkyɛn na woyɛ mʼadamfo.”
18 UMosi wasesithi, “Ngicela ukuba ungitshengise inkazimulo yakho.”
Na Mose srɛɛ sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ohu Onyankopɔn anuonyam.
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.”
Awurade buae se, “Mɛma mo ahu mʼadɔe, na mɛbɔ me din Awurade no akyerɛ mo. Nea mepɛ sɛ mihu no mmɔbɔ no, mehu no mmɔbɔ, na nea mepɛ sɛ meyɛ no adɔe nso, mɛyɛ no adɔe.
20 UThixo waqhubeka wathi, “Kodwa, ubuso bami awungeke ububone, ngoba kakho ongangibona aphile.”
Nanso morenhu mʼanuonyam, efisɛ obiara renhu mʼanim ntena nkwa mu.
21 UThixo wabuya wathi, “Kulendawo phansi kwami lapho ongema khona phezu kwedwala.
“Nanso gyina ɔbotan yi so wɔ me nkyɛn ha.
22 Kuzakuthi lapho inkazimulo yami isedlula eduze, ngizakufaka emnkenkeni wedwala ngikusithe ngesandla sami ngize ngidlule.
Na sɛ mʼanuonyam resen a, mede wo bɛhyɛ ɔbotan no mu na mede me nsa akata wo so akosi sɛ metwa mu.
23 Emva kwalokho ngizasusa isandla sami ubone umhlane wami; kodwa ubuso bami akumelanga ububone.”
Afei, meyi me nsa na woahu mʼakyi, na mʼanim de, ɛnsɛ sɛ wohu.”
