< U-Eksodusi 4 >
1 UMosi waphendula wathi, “Pho bangayekela ukungikholwa loba ukulalela engikutshoyo bathi, ‘uThixo kazange abonakale kuwe’?”
Mosese'a Ra Anumzamofo kenona hunteno, Ke'niama antahi onamige, zamentintima osanageno'a nankna hugahie? Na'ankure zamagra amanage hu'za Kagrikura hugahaze. Ra Anumzamo'a kagritera efore osu'ne hugahaze.
2 UThixo wathi kuye, “Kuyini lokho okusesandleni sakho?” Waphendula wathi, “Yintonga.”
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a anage huno antahige'ne, Na'a kazampina me'ne? huno antahigegeno Mosese'a azompani'e higeno,
3 UThixo wathi, “Iphosele phansi emhlabathini.” UMosi wayiphosa phansi yasiphenduka yaba yinyoka, wayibalekela.
Ana azompa mopafi atro, higeno Mosese'a mopafi atregeno, ana azompamo'a osifave fore higeno, Mosese'a atreno kore fre'ne.
4 UThixo wasesithi kuye, “Yelula isandla sakho uyibambe ngomsila.” UMosi welula isandla wayibamba inyoka yasiphenduka yaba yintonga esandleni sakhe.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a anage huno Mosesena asami'ne, Kazana antenka risonare azeri sga huo, higeno Mosese'a aza antegantuteno risonare azeri sga higeno, ete azompa fore hu'ne.
5 UThixo wathi, “Lokhu yikwenzela ukuthi bakholwe ukuthi uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyise, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe ubonakele kuwe.”
Anumzamo asmino, e'inahu'za fore hanige'za, Ra Anumzana nezmafa Abrahamu Anumzane, Aisaki Anumzane Jekopu Anumzamo kagrite efore hu'ne hu'za zamentinti hugahaze.
6 UThixo wabuye wathi, “Faka isandla sakho phakathi kwejazi lakho.” UMosi wasefaka isandla sakhe ejazini lakhe, kwathi lapho esesikhupha, sasesimhlophe njengongqwaqwane sesilobulephero.
Mago'ane Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Hagi menina nakre kuka'afi kazana vazio, higeno Mosese'a azana nekre ku'afi vaziteno erizafigeno, leprosi namumo ana azampina fore huno efenentake hu'ne.
7 Wathi njalo, “Sibuyisele isandla sakho ejazini lakho.” UMosi wasifaka isandla sakhe ejazini lakhe, wathi esesikhupha sasesibuyele esimeni saso, sesifanana lejwabu lakhe.
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Hagi menina ana nakre kuka'afi kazana ete vazio, higeno Mosese'a ana azana ana nakre ku'afi eteno vaziteno erizafigeno, ana leprosi namuna fanane huno avufgamo'a knare huno ruga'a avufga'mo'ma me'neaza hu'ne.
8 UThixo wasesithi, “Nxa bengayikukholwa loba bengananzi izibonakaliso zokuqala, mhlawumbe bazakholwa ezesibili.
Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesenkura anage huno asami'ne, Zamagrama kota avame'zamofonku'ma zamentinti osuge, antahi ogamisagenka, henka avame'za hnanke'za negesu'za zamentinti hugahaze.
9 Kodwa nxa bengakholwa izibonakaliso lezi ezimbili loba bengakulaleli, uzathatha amanzi emfuleni uNayili uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo. Amanzi ozawathatha emfuleni azaphenduka abe ligazi emhlabathini owomileyo.”
Hu'neanagi tare avame'zamofonte'ma nege'za zamentinti nosu'za keka'a ontahisnagenka, Naeli timpinti mago'a tina afinka hagege mopafi tagi tro. E'ina'ma hanankeno'a ana timo'a hagege mopafina kora fore hugahie.
10 UMosi wasesithi kuThixo, “Oh Thixo, ngixolele, angizange ngibe yisikhulumi kusukela emuva kuze kube lakhathesi ukhuluma lenceku yakho. Ngiyagagasa njalo ngilamalimi.”
Mosese'a Ra Anumzamofona amanage huno asmi'ne, Muse hugantoanki Ra Anumzamoka nagra kea huso'e nosu'na, korapa anahu hu'na mani'na e'noe. Meninena nagrane kegaga hananagi nagefu'namo'a kema huzampina knarera osige'na, kea hu so'e nosue.
11 UThixo wathi kuye, “Ngubani owapha umuntu umlomo? Ngubani omenza abe yisacuthe loba abe yisimungulu? Ngubani omenza abone loba abe yisiphofu? Akusimi uThixo na?
Ra Anumzamo'a kenona huno, Iza vahe zamagira tro huzmante'ne? Iza ke osu vahero, zamagesa ankanire vahero, zamavu knarehu vahero, zamavu suhu vahera zamazeri nese? Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na e'inara hunezmantoe.
12 Ngakho hamba, ngizakusiza ukuthi ukhulume njalo ngikufundise lokuthi uthini.”
E'ina hu'negu menina kagra vuge'na, Nagra kagrane mani'nena, kema hnana kea hugasmisnugenka hugahane.
13 Kodwa uMosi wathi, “Oh Thixo, ngicela uthume omunye ukuthi ayekwenza lokhu.”
Hianagi Mosese'a amanage huno ke'nona hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka muse hugantoanki mago'a vahe huzmanto.
14 UThixo wathukuthela, ulaka lwakhe lwavutha kuMosi, wathi, “Umfowenu u-Aroni, ongumLevi ke? Ngiyazi ukuthi uyenelisa ukukhuluma kuhle. Uvele usendleleni ukuzahlangana lawe, njalo inhliziyo yakhe izathokoza ukukubona.
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesena rimpahenteno anage hu'ne, Anantega negafu Livae nera Aroni'a omaninefi? Nagra antahi'noankino agra knare zantfa huno kea hugahie. Hanki agra kantega eme tutagiha hugantenaku ne-eankino, eme kagesuno'a agu'areti huno musena hugantegahie.
15 Uzakhuluma laye ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe. Ngizaliphathisa lobabili ukuthi likhulume njalo ngizalifundisa ukuthi lenzeni.
Emema kagesnigenka, kema hania kea retro humige'na, Nagrani'a kagri kagite'ene agri agite'enena mani'nena inankna kea hugaha'e, rempi huranamisnugeta kea hugaha'e.
16 Yena uzakukhulumela ebantwini, njalo kuzakuba sengani nguye ongumlomo wakho njalo kube angani wena unguNkulunkulu kuye.
Aroni'a kagri kagi erino vahe'ma kema zmasami vahe mani'nigenka, kagra Anumzankna hunka agritera mani'nenka vahe'ma zmasamisia kea asamigahane.
17 Kodwa phatha intonga le esandleni sakho ukuze wenze izimangaliso ngayo.”
Hagi menina kagra kama vanohu azompa ka'a, avame'zama erifore'ma hananku erio.
18 UMosi wasebuyela kuyisezala uJethro wathi kuye, “Bengicela ukubuyela ebantwini bakithi eGibhithe ukuthi ngiyebona kumbe balokhu besaphilile.” UJethro wathi kuye, “Hamba kuhle.”
Anantetira Mosese'a atreno nenemo ne' Jetronte vuno amanage hu'ne, Muse hugantoanki natrege'na ete Isipima mani'naza nafu nganaheintega vu'na, ofri mani'nazo ome zamaga'neno, higeno Jetro'a krimpa frune vuo huno hunte'ne.
19 UThixo wayethe kuMosi eMidiyani, “Buyela eGibhithe, ngoba bonke abantu ababefuna ukukubulala sebafa.”
Mosese'a Midiani kumate mani'negeno Ra Anumzamo anage huno asmi'ne, Etenka Isipi vuo, na'ankure kahe fri'nakurema hu'naza vahe'mo'za ko' fri'naze.
20 Ngakho uMosi wathatha umkakhe kanye lamadodana akhe, wabakhweza kubabhemi waqala uhambo lokubuyela eGibhithe. Wathatha intonga kaNkulunkulu wayiphatha ngesandla.
Anage higeno, Mosese'a tare mofavre'ane nenarone zamavreno donki afu'mofo agofetu nezmanteno, Anumzamofo azompa'a azampi azerige'za Isipi vunaku vu'naze.
21 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ekubuyeleni kwakho eGibhithe, bona ukuthi uyazenza zonke izimangaliso engikuphe amandla okuba uzenze phambi kukaFaro. Kodwa ngizakwenza inhliziyo yakhe ibe lukhuni ukuba angabavumeli abantu ukuthi basuke.
Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesena anage huno asmi'ne, Isipima ete uhanatisunka, kaguvazama erifore huogu'ma hankvema kami'noa hanavereti Fero avuga maka kaguvazana erifore huo. Hu'neanagi Nagra arimpa azeri hankvetisugeno Israeli vahera zmatresnige'za ovugahaze.
22 Uzakuthi kuFaro, ‘uThixo uthi u-Israyeli yindodana yami elizibulo,
Kagra anage hunka Ferona asamio, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Israeli vahera kota ne' mofavre'ni'e.
23 njalo ngakutshela ngathi, “Vumela indodana yami ihambe, ukuze iyengikhonza.” Kodwa wena wala ukuyivumela ukuba ihambe; ngakho ngizabulala indodana yakho elizibulo.’”
E'ina hu'negu Nagra anage hu'na kasami'noe, Israeli vahera zmatrege'za vu'za monora ome hunanteho. Hianagi kagra ke'ni'a ontahinka zmatranke'za ovu'nazagu, antahio, Nagra kota ne' mofavreka'a ahe frigahue!
24 Kwathi besesendleleni, endlini yezihambi, uThixo wahlangana loMosi wafuna ukumbulala.
Mosese'ene naga'amo'za Isipi vunaku karanka nevu'za hani hige'za masenaku hazare, Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesena emegeno ahe frinaku hu'ne.
25 Kodwa uZiphora wayisoka indodana yakhe, wathatha isikhumba sakhona wasethinta inyawo zikaMosi ngaso. Wathi, “Impela wena ungumyeni wegazi.”
Hianagi anante Zipora'a mago asne'nea have kazi erino, nemofo oku avufamofo anoma'a taga huno, Mosese agiafi ome netreno anage hu'ne, kagra tamagerfa hunka nagritera kora eri tagi nenavega mani'nane hu'ne.
26 Ngakho uThixo wamyekela. (Ngalesosikhathi uZiphora wathi “umyeni wegazi,” esitsho ukusoka.)
Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesena ahe ofrigeno, Zipora'a amanage hu'ne, kora eri tagine'moka nenavezana hu'nane, na'ankure ne' mofavre'amofo oku avufga anoma'a taga hu'neazanku hu'ne. (Jen-Agf 17: 9-14).
27 UThixo wathi ku-Aroni, “Hamba uye enkangala uhlangabezane loMosi.” Ngakho wasuka wayahlangana loMosi entabeni kaThixo wamanga.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Aronina asmino, Ka'ma moparega vunka Mosesena omego, higeno Aronia vuno Anumzamofo agonare Mosesena omegeno agi antako nehuno, azeri frufra hu'ne.
28 UMosi wamtshela u-Aroni konke uThixo ayemthume ukuthi akutsho, njalo langazo zonke izibonakaliso ezimangalisayo ayemlaye ukuba azenze.
Ra Anumzamo'ma maka kema Mosesema nesamino, avame'zantmima huvenerino, ana avame zantmima omeri fore huo huno'ma hunte'nea kante anteno, ana maka kene avame'zanena Aronina asami'ne.
29 UMosi lo-Aroni bahamba bafika baqoqa bonke abadala bako-Israyeli,
Anante Mosese'ene Aronikea vuke maka Israeli vahe'mokizmi kva vahetmina ome zamazeri atru hu'na'e.
30 u-Aroni wasebatshela konke uThixo ayekutshele uMosi. Wenza lezibonakaliso phambi kwabantu,
Anante Aroni'a Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asmi'nea kea ana maka Israeli vahe'mokizmi nezmasamino, avame'zantamina zamavurera erifore hu'ne.
31 bakholwa. Kwathi besizwa ukuthi uThixo uyabakhathalela, njalo wayelubonile usizi lwabo, bakhothama phansi bamkhonza.
Israeli vahe'mo'za zamentinti nehu'za, Isipima zamazeri havizama hu'naza zama Anumzamo antahino keno'ma hu'nea nanekema Aroni'ma zamasamige'za nentahi'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za kepri hu'za Anumzamofo mono hunte'naze.
