1 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Ngisezakwehlisela kuFaro lakulo iGibhithe inhlupheko eyodwa; emva kwalokho uzaliyekela lihambe lisuke lapha; ekuliyekeleni kwakhe lihambe uzalixotsha lokulixotsha lisuka lapha ngokupheleleyo.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Ekyaliyo ekibonoobono kimu kye nzija okuleetera Falaawo n’ensi y’e Misiri. Oluvannyuma lwakyo ajja kubaleka mugende; ate bw’anaabakkiriza okugenda, ajja kubeegoberako ddala bwegobi abasindiikirize.
2 Ake ukhulume endlebeni zabantu, ukuthi bacele, ngulowo kumakhelwane wakhe, lalowo owesifazana kumakhelwane wakhe, izinto zesiliva lezinto zegolide.
Kale, tegeeza abantu, buli musajja asabanga muliraanwa we, ne buli mukazi asabanga muliraanwa we, ebintu eby’omuwendo ebya ffeeza n’ebya zaabu.”
3 INkosi yasinika abantu umusa emehlweni amaGibhithe. Futhi indoda uMozisi waba mkhulu kakhulu elizweni leGibhithe emehlweni enceku zikaFaro lemehlweni esizwe.
Mukama n’aleetera Abamisiri okukwanagana n’abaana ba Isirayiri; ne Musa n’aweebwa nnyo ekitiibwa mu nsi y’e Misiri. Abakungu ba Falaawo n’abantu bonna ne bamugulumiza nnyo.
4 UMozisi wasesithi: Itsho njalo iNkosiithi: Phose phakathi kobusuku ngizaphuma ngiye phakathi kweGibhithe;
Awo Musa n’agamba Falaawo nti, “Mukama agambye bw’ati nti, ‘Nga wakati mu ttumbi, nzija kuyita mu Misiri yonna.
5 lawo wonke amazibulo elizweni leGibhithe azakufa, kusukela kuzibulo likaFaro elizahlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, kuze kube kuzibulo lencekukazi engemva kwelitshe lokuchola, lamazibulo wonke ezifuyo.
Ebibereberye mu nsi y’e Misiri bijja kufa, okutandikira ku mubereberye wa Falaawo agenda okumusikira, okutuukira ddala ku mubereberye w’omuwala omuzaana asa ku lubengo; era n’ebibereberye byonna eby’ebisolo.
6 Njalo kuzakuba khona isililo esikhulu elizweni lonke leGibhithe, esingazanga sibe khona esinjengaso, lesingayikuba khona futhi esinjengaso.
Wajja kubaawo okukungubaga okunene mu nsi yonna eya Misiri, okutabangawo era nga tewagenda kubaawo kukwenkana.
7 Kodwa lakubo bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli inja kayiyikulola ulimi lwayo, kusukela emuntwini kusiya ezifuyweni, ukuze lazi ukuthi iNkosi iyehlukanisa phakathi kweGibhithe loIsrayeli.
Naye mu baana ba Isirayiri n’embwa teribaayo gw’eboggolera wadde ebisolo byabwe; mulyoke mutegeere nga Mukama Abamisiri n’Abayisirayiri tabayisa bumu.’
8 Lazo zonke izinceku zakho lezi zizakwehlela kimi, zingikhothamele zisithi: Phuma wena lesizwe sonke esikulandelayo. Langemva kwalokho ngizaphuma. Wasephuma kuFaro ekuvutheni kolaka.
Era bano abakungu bo bonna balijja gye ndi nga babundabunda, ne banvuunamira nga banneegayirira nti, ‘Genda, ggwe n’abantu bo bonna abakugoberera.’ Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo nange ndigenda.” N’ava awali Falaawo n’obusungu bungi nnyo.
9 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: UFaro kayikulizwa, ukuze zande izimangaliso zami elizweni leGibhithe.
Mukama yali agambye Musa nti, “Falaawo tagenda kuwuliriza by’omugamba, bwe ntyo ndyoke nkolere ebyamagero byange bingi mu Misiri.”
10 OMozisi loAroni basebesenza zonke lezizimangaliso phambi kukaFaro, kodwa iNkosi yenza inhliziyo kaFaro yaba lukhuni, kazabayekela abantwana bakoIsrayeli baphume elizweni lakhe.
Musa ne Alooni baakolera ebyamagero ebyo byonna awali Falaawo; naye Mukama yakakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, n’atakkiriza baana ba Isirayiri kuva mu nsi ye.
