U-Eksodusi 13

1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

2 Ngingcwelisela lonke izibulo, elivula loba yisiphi isizalo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, elomuntu lelenyamazana, lingelami.

“Fakatapui maʻaku ʻae ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fakaava ʻae mānava ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi he tangata mo e manu: ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia.”

3 UMozisi wasesithi ebantwini: Khumbulani lolusuku eliphume ngalo eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili; ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi ilikhuphile lapha. Njalo kakungadliwa isinkwa esilemvubelo.

Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese ki he kakai, “Manatu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻa ia, kuo mou haʻu ai mei ʻIsipite, mei he fale fakapōpula: he kuo ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova mei he potu ni ʻi he nima mālohi: ʻoua naʻa kai ha mā kuo fakalēvani.

4 Ngalolusuku liyaphuma ngenyanga kaAbhibhi.

Kuo mou hao mai he ʻaho ni ʻi he māhina ko ʻApipi.

5 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani lamaHethi lamaAmori lamaHivi lamaJebusi, afunga kuboyihlo ukukunika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, uzagcina linkonzo ngalinyanga.

Pea ka ʻomi koe ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ʻoe kau Kēnani, mo e kau Heti, mo e kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi, ʻaia naʻa ne fuakava ai ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate koe, ʻae fonua mahu tāfea ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi, te ke fai ʻae ngāue ni ʻi he māhina ni.

6 Insuku eziyisikhombisa uzakudla izinkwa ezingelamvubelo, langosuku lwesikhombisa kuzakuba khona umkhosi eNkosini.

‌ʻI he ʻaho ʻe fitu te ke kai mā taʻeaihalēvani, pea ʻe fai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻae kātoanga kia Sihova.

7 Izinkwa ezingelamvubelo zizadliwa ngensuku eziyisikhombisa; njalo kakuyikubonwa kuwe okuvutshelweyo lemvubelo kayiyikubonwa kuwe kuwo wonke umngcele wakho.

‌ʻE kai ʻae mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea ʻe ʻikai ha mā kuo ʻai ki ai ha lēvani ʻe ʻilo ʻiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha lēvani ʻiate koe ʻi hoʻo ngaahi potu kotoa pē.

8 Njalo uzatshela indodana yakho ngalolosuku usithi: Ngenxa yalokho iNkosi eyakwenza kimi ekuphumeni kwami eGibhithe.

Pea te ke fakahā ki ho foha ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo pehē, ‘[ʻOku fai ʻeni, ]koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ko ia ʻaia naʻe fai ʻe Sihova kiate au, ʻi heʻeku hao mei ʻIsipite.’

9 Futhi kuzakuba kuwe luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lesikhumbuzo phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ukuze umlayo weNkosi ube semlonyeni wakho; ngoba ngesandla esilamandla iNkosi ikukhuphile eGibhithe.

Pea ʻe ʻiate koe ia ko e fakaʻilonga ʻi ho nima, pea ko e meʻa fakamanatu ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ho mata, koeʻuhi ke ʻi ho ngutu ʻae fono ʻa Sihova: he kuo ʻomi koe ʻe Sihova mei ʻIsipite ʻi he nima mālohi.

10 Ngakho uzagcina lesisimiso ngesikhathi saso esimisiweyo iminyaka ngeminyaka.

Ko ia ke ke tauhi ai ʻae fekau ni ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu tukufakaholo ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē.

11 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani, njengokufunga kwayo kuwe lakuboyihlo, isikunike lona,

“Pea ʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻomi koe ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ʻoe kau Kēnani, ʻo hangē ko ʻene fuakava kiate koe mo hoʻo ngaahi tamai, ʻo ne foaki ia kiate koe,

12 uzakwehlukanisela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo; lalo lonke izibulo lomqegu wezifuyo olazo, amaduna azakuba ngaweNkosi.

Te ke vaheʻi maʻa Sihova ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku fakaava ʻae manāva, pea mo e ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻoku tupu ʻi he manu ʻoku ke maʻu: ko e manu tangata ʻoku ʻa Sihova ia.

13 Lalo lonke izibulo likababhemi uzalihlenga ngewundlu; kodwa uba ungalihlengi, uzalephula intamo; lalo lonke izibulo lomuntu phakathi kwamadodana akho uzalihlenga.

Pea ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻae ʻasi te ke huhuʻi ʻaki ʻae lami: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke huhuʻi ia, te ke fesiʻi hono kia: pea ko e ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi hoʻo fānau tangata te ke huhuʻi.

14 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho indodana yakho ikubuza ngesikhathi esizayo isithi: Kuyini lokhu? Uzakuthi kuyo: Ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili.

Pea ʻe pehē ʻoka fehuʻi ʻe ho foha kiate koe ʻamui, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā eni? Te ke tala ʻo pehē kiate ia, naʻe ʻomi ʻakimautolu ʻe Sihova mei ʻIsipite, mei he fale fakapōpula ʻi he nima mālohi.

15 Ngoba kwathi uFaro ezenza lukhuni ukuthi asiyekele sihambe, iNkosi yabulala lonke izibulo elizweni leGibhithe, kusukela kuzibulo lomuntu kusiya kuzibulo lezifuyo; ngakho ngiyahlabela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo okuduna; kodwa lonke izibulo lamadodana ami ngiyalihlenga.

Pea ʻi he ʻikai fie tuku mai ʻakimautolu ʻe Felo, naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻae ʻuluaki fānau ʻae tangata mo e ʻuluaki fānau ʻae manu: ko ia ʻoku ou feilaulau ʻaki ai kia Sihova ʻae fānau tangata kotoa pē, ʻoku fakaava ʻae manāva: ka ko e ʻuluaki tupu kotoa pē ʻo ʻeku fānau ʻoku ou huhuʻi.

16 Njalo kuzakuba luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lamafilakteriyu phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe.

Pea ʻe hoko ia ko e fakaʻilonga ki ho nima, mo e meʻa fakamanatu ki ho laʻē: he naʻe ʻomi ʻakimautolu mei ʻIsipite ʻe Sihova ʻi he nima mālohi.”

17 Kwasekusithi uFaro eseyekele abantu bahambe, uNkulunkulu kabakhokhelanga ngendlela yelizwe lamaFilisti, lanxa yayiseduze; ngoba uNkulunkulu wathi: Hlezi abantu bazisole nxa bebona impi, babuyele eGibhithe.

Pea ko ʻeni, ʻi he tukuange ʻae kakai ʻe Felo ke nau ʻalu, naʻe ʻikai tataki ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he hala ʻoe fonua ʻoe kau Filisitia, neongo hono ofi ia; he naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua, Telia naʻa fakatomala ʻae kakai ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he tau, pea te nau foki ki ʻIsipite.

18 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wababhodisa abantu ngendlela yenkangala yoLwandle oluBomvu. Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenyuka besuka elizweni leGibhithe behlomile.

Ka naʻe tataki ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kakai ke afe ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa ʻoe tahi Kulokula: pea naʻe hiki teuteu tau pe ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.

19 UMozisi wasethatha amathambo kaJosefa wahamba lawo, ngoba wayebafungisile lokubafungisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Isibili uNkulunkulu uzalihambela; futhi kalibokwenyusa lapha amathambo ami lihambe lawo.

Pea naʻe hikitanga ʻe Mōsese ʻae hui ʻo Siosefa ke ʻave: he naʻa ne fakafuakavaʻi totonu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻaʻahi ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu; pea te mou hikitanga hoku hui ʻo ʻave mei heni mo kimoutolu.’

20 Basebesuka eSukothi, bamisa inkamba eEthama, ekucineni kwenkangala.

Pea naʻa nau fononga mei Sukote, ʻonau ʻapitanga, ʻi ʻEtami, ʻi he veʻe toafa.

21 INkosi yasihamba phambi kwabo emini ngensika yeyezi ukubakhokhela endleleni, lebusuku ngensika yomlilo ukubakhanyisela, ukuze bahambe emini lebusuku.

Pea naʻe hāʻele ʻo muʻomuʻa ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova ʻi he pou ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, ke tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he hala: pea mo e pou afi ʻi he poʻuli, ke fakamaama kiate kinautolu; ke nau ʻalu ʻaho, mo ʻalu ʻi he poʻuli:

22 Kayiyisusanga insika yeyezi emini, lensika yomlilo ebusuku, phambi kwabantu.

Naʻe ʻikai te ne hiki ʻo ʻave ʻae pou ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pe ko e pou afi ʻi he poʻuli mei he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
