U-Eksodusi 6
1 UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Uzabona esengizakwenza kuFaro khathesi. Ngenxa yamandla esandla sami uzabavumela bahambe, ngenxa yamandla esandla sami uzabaxotsha elizweni lakhe.”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Wubehu nea mede bɛyɛ Farao. Menam me tumi so bɛhyɛ no na wama me nkurɔfo no akɔ; me basa kokuroo no bɛma wapam wɔn afi ɔman no mu.”
2 UNkulunkulu waphinda wathi kuMosi, “NginguThixo.
Na Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Mene Awurade no.
3 Ngazibonakalisa ku-Abhrahama, ku-Isaka lakuJakhobe njengoNkulunkulu uSomandla, kodwa ngegama lami elithi Thixo kangizange ngizibonakalise kubo.
Miyii me ho adi kyerɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob sɛ Onyankopɔn tumfo. Nanso mammɔ me din sɛ Awurade no ankyerɛ wɔn.
4 Ngaphinda ngenza isivumelwano labo ukuze ngibanike ilizwe leKhenani lapho ababehlala khona njengabezizweni.
Na me ne wɔn hyehyɛɛ apam sɛ mede Kanaan asase a na tete no wɔte so sɛ ahɔho no bɛma wɔn ne wɔn asefo.
5 Phezu kwalokho, sengikuzwile ukububula kwabantu bako-Israyeli besebugqilini ngaphansi kwamaGibhithe, njalo sengikhumbule isivumelwano sami.
Bio, mate Israelfo apinisi ne nya a Misraimfo di wɔn no nyinaa na makae me ne wɔn apam no.
6 Ngakho tshela abako-Israyeli ukuthi nginguThixo, njalo ngizalikhulula embusweni wamaGibhithe onzima, ngizalikhulula ukuze lingabi yizigqili zabo, njalo ngizalikhulula ngesandla eseluliweyo langezimangaliso.
“Enti ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Me, Awurade, menam me tumi so bɛyɛ anwonwade de ayi wɔn afi nkoasom mu ama wɔade wɔn ho.
7 Ngizalemukela njengabantu bami njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wenu. Ngalokho lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu owalikhupha embusweni olukhuni wamaGibhithe. Ngizalikhulula ukuze lingabi yizigqili zabo.
Megye wɔn ato mu sɛ me nkurɔfo na mayɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn. Na wobehu sɛ mene Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn a wagye wɔn afi Misraimfo nsam no.
8 Njalo ngizaliletha elizweni engafunga ngesandla sami esiphakemeyo ukulinika u-Abhrahama, u-Isaka loJakhobe. Ngizalinika lona ukuze libe ngelenu. Mina nginguThixo.”
Mede wɔn bɛba asase a mehyɛɛ bɔ sɛ mede bɛma Abraham, Isak ne Yakob no so. Saa asase no bɛyɛ mo agyapade. Mene Awurade no.’”
9 UMosi wabika lokhu kwabako-Israyeli, kodwa kabazange bamlalele ngenxa yokudangala kwabo ebugqilini obulochuku.
Enti Mose kaa asɛm a Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no no kyerɛɛ nnipa no, nanso wɔantie, esiane abawpa a efi ɔhyɛ ntraso nti.
10 UThixo wasesithi kuMosi,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
11 “Hamba uyetshela uFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe ukuthi avumele abako-Israyeli baphume elizweni lakhe.”
“San kɔ Farao nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛ no sɛ ɔmma Israelfo no mfi ne man no mu nkɔ.”
12 Kodwa uMosi wathi kuThixo, “Nxa abako-Israyeli bengangilaleli, kuyini okungenza ukuthi uFaro angilalele, njengoba ngikhuluma ngigagasa?”
Nanso Mose kae se, “Sɛ Israelfo no rentie me a, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Farao betie me, bere a mʼano ntewee yi?”
13 UThixo wakhuluma loMosi lo-Aroni mayelana labako-Israyeli loFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe wabalaya ukuthi bavumele abantu bako-Israyeli ukuthi baphume eGibhithe.
