U-Eksodusi 16
1 Basebesuka eElimi, lenhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli yafika enkangala yeSini, ephakathi kweElimi leSinayi, ngosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwenyanga yesibili emva kokuphuma kwabo elizweni leGibhithe.
Pea naʻe hiki honau fononga mei ʻElimi, pea haʻu ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he toafa ko Sini, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ʻElimi mo Sainai, ʻi hono hongofulu ma nima ʻoe ʻaho, ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, hili ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
2 Lenhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli yakhonona imelana loMozisi loAroni enkangala.
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻi he toafa ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese mo ʻElone.
3 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesithi kubo: Kungathi ngabe safa ngesandla seNkosi elizweni leGibhithe lapho sasihlezi embizeni zenyama, lapho sadla isinkwa sasutha; ngoba lisikhuphele kulinkangala ukuze libulale lelibandla lonke ngendlala.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kiate kinaua, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fakaʻamu ki he ʻOtua, naʻa mau mate ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi heʻemau kei tauʻutu ofi ki he ngaahi kulo kakano, pea ne mau kai mā ʻo mākona; he kuo mo ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki he toafa ni, ke tāmateʻi ʻae fakataha ni kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae fiekaia.”
4 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Khangela, ngizalinisela isinkwa sivela emazulwini; labantu bazaphuma ukubutha isabelo sosuku ngosuku lwaso, ukuze ngibalinge ukuthi bazahamba ngomlayo wami yini kumbe hayi.
Pea naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Vakai, Te u fakaʻuha ʻae mā mei he langi maʻamoutolu: pea ʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai ʻo tānaki fakatuhotuha ki he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻae mā, koeʻuhi ke u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu, pe te nau felakaʻi ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau pe ʻikai.
5 Kuzakuthi-ke ngosuku lwesithupha bazalungisa lokho abakulethileyo, njalo kuzabe kuphindwe kabili kulokho abakubuthayo insuku ngensuku.
Pea ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho ʻe fai pehē, te nau ngaohi ʻaia kuo na tuku, pea ʻe tuʻoua hono lahi hake ʻi he mā ʻoku nau ʻomi ʻi he ʻaho kehe.”
6 UMozisi loAroni basebesithi kubo bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli: Kusihlwa, khona lizakwazi ukuthi iNkosi ilikhuphile elizweni leGibhithe;
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, “Te mou toki ʻilo ʻi he efiafi, kuo ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite:
7 njalo kusisa, khona lizabona inkazimulo yeNkosi, ngoba izwile ukukhonona kwenu limelene leNkosi. Thina-ke siyini ukuthi lisikhononele?
Pea ʻi he ʻapongipongi, te mou mamata ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova he ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou ngaahi lāunga pea ko hai ʻakimaua, koeʻuhi ke mou hanu ai kiate kimaua?”
8 UMozisi wasesithi: Lapho iNkosi ilinika inyama yokudla kusihlwa, lesinkwa ekuseni, ukuze lisuthe, kungoba iNkosi izwile ukukhonona kwenu elikukhonona limelene layo. Ngoba thina siyini? Ukukhonona kwenu kakumelananga lathi, kodwa kumelene leNkosi.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻe Sihova ʻae kakano kiate kimoutolu ʻi he efiafi, mo e mā ʻi he pongipongi ke mou mākona ai; he ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova hoʻomou lāunga ʻaia ʻoku mou lāunga ai kiate ia: pea ko hai ʻakimaua? ʻOku ʻikai kiate kimaua hoʻomou lāunga, ka kia Sihova.”
9 UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni: Tshono kunhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi: Sondelani phambi kweNkosi, ngoba izwile ukukhonona kwenu.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Tala ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, Mou haʻu ʻo ofi ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova he kuo ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou lāunga.”
10 Kwasekusithi uAroni esakhuluma kunhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli, bakhangela ngasenkangala, khangela-ke, inkazimulo yeNkosi yabonakala eyezini.
Pea vakai lolotonga ʻae lea ʻa ʻElone ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau sio atu ki he toafa, pea vakai, kuo ha mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻao.
11 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
12 Sengizwile ukukhonona kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli; batshele uthi: Kusihlwa lizakudla inyama, lekuseni lisuthe isinkwa, njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
“Kuo u ongoʻi ʻae lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: lea kiate kinautolu ʻo pehē, ʻi he efiafi te mou kai kakano, pea ʻi he pongipongi te mou mākona ʻi he mā: pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.”
13 Kwasekusithi ntambama kwenyuka izagwaca, zasibekela inkamba; lakusisa kwakulomlalela wamazolo uzingelezele inkamba.
Pea ʻi heʻene efiafi naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe haʻu ʻae fuifui kueili, pea naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻae ʻapitanga; pea ʻi he pongipongi naʻe ʻufiʻufi takatakai ʻae ʻapitanga ʻe he hahau.
14 Kwathi umlalela wamazolo usuwenyukile, khangela-ke, phezu kobuso benkangala into eyisigaqa encinyane, incinyane njengongqwaqwane emhlabathini.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻae hahau naʻe ʻūfia ai, vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he funga toafa ʻae meʻa siʻi potopoto, ʻo hangē ko e hahau fefeka ʻi he kelekele.
15 Kwathi abantwana bakoIsrayeli bezibona bathi omunye komunye: Yimana. Ngoba babengazi ukuthi kuyini. UMozisi wasesithi kubo: Kuyisinkwa iNkosi elinike sona ukuze lidle.
Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā ia?” He naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo pe ko e hā. Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu, “Ko e mā eni kuo foaki mai ʻe Sihova ke mou kai.
16 Le yinto iNkosi elilaye ngayo yathi: Ngulowo lalowo kabuthe kuyo okulingene ukudla kwakhe, i-omeri ngekhanda, njengenani lemiphefumulo yenu, ngulowo uzathathela abasethenteni lakhe.
Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Tānaki ia ʻe he tangata kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai, ko e oma ʻe taha mā ʻae tangata taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki he lau ʻo homou kakai; ke toʻo taki taha ʻae tangata maʻanautolu ʻoku ʻi hono ngaahi fale fehikitaki.”
17 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenza njalo, babutha, omunye okunengi lomunye okulutshwana.
Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo tānaki ia, naʻe lahi ʻae niʻihi, pea siʻi ʻae niʻihi.
18 Sebelinganise nge-omeri, lowo owayebuthe okunengi kabanga lokusalayo, lowayebuthe okulutshwana kaswelanga; babutha, ngulowo lalowo okulingene ukudla kwakhe.
Pea kuo fakafuofua ʻaki ia ʻae oma, naʻe ʻikai hano toe, kiate ia naʻe tānaki ʻo lahi, pea ko ia naʻe tānaki siʻi naʻe ʻikai hano masiva; naʻa nau tānaki ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai.
19 UMozisi wasesithi kubo: Kakungabi lamuntu otshiya kukho kuze kube sekuseni.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ʻe ha tangata hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi.”
20 Kodwa kabamlalelanga uMozisi; kodwa abanye batshiya kukho kwaze kwaba sekuseni, kwasekuphethuza impethu, kwaba levumba. Ngakho uMozisi wabathukuthelela.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga kia Mōsese; ka ko honau niʻihi naʻe tuku hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi, pea naʻe ʻuangahia ia, pea namuaʻa; pea naʻe ʻita ʻa Mōsese kiate kinautolu.
21 Bakubutha ukusa ngokusa, ngulowo lalowo okulingene ukudla kwakhe; lapho ilanga selitshisa, kwancibilika.
Pea naʻa nau tānaki ia ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo tatau mo ʻene kai: pea ʻi he hoko ʻo vela ʻae laʻā, naʻe vai ʻo ʻosi ia.
22 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithupha babutha isinkwa esiphindwe kabili, ama-omeri amabili ngamunye. Njalo zonke izinduna zenhlangano zeza zamtshela uMozisi.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, naʻa nau tānaki ʻo tuʻo ua hono lahi hake ʻoe mā, ko e oma ʻe ua ki he tangata pe taha: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai ʻo tala ia kia Mōsese.
23 Wasesithi kuzo: Lokhu yikho iNkosi ekutshiloyo: Kusasa yikuphumula, isabatha elingcwele leNkosi. Bhakani elizakubhaka, lipheke elizakupheka, konke lokho okuseleyo lizibekele kugcinwe kuze kube sekuseni.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ia kuo folofola ai ʻa Sihova, Ko e mālōlō ʻoe Sāpate māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova ʻapongipongi: taʻo he ʻaho ni, ʻaia te mou taʻo, pea haka ʻaia te mou haka: pea ko ia ʻoku toe, hilifaki ia ki he ʻapongipongi maʻamoutolu.”
24 Basebekubeka kwaze kwaba sekuseni njengokulaya kukaMozisi. Njalo kakubanga levumba, kwakungelampethu kukho.
Pea naʻa nau hilifaki ki he ʻapongipongi, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese: pea naʻe ʻikai namuaʻa, pea naʻe ʻikai ha ʻuanga ʻi ai.
25 UMozisi wasesithi: Dlanini lokhu lamuhla, ngoba lamuhla kulisabatha leNkosi; lamuhla kaliyikukuthola egangeni.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Kai ia he ʻaho ni; he ko e ʻaho ni ko e Sāpate ia kia Sihova: ʻe ʻikai te mou ʻilo ia he ʻaho ni ʻi he ngoue.
26 Lizakubutha insuku eziyisithupha; kodwa ngosuku lwesikhombisa, isabatha, kakuyikuba khona kulo.
Ko e ʻaho ʻe ono te mou tānaki ia; ka ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻaia ko e Sāpate, ʻe ʻikai siʻi ʻi ai ia.”
27 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesikhombisa abanye babantu baphuma ukubutha, kodwa kabakutholanga.
Pea hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ke tānaki, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia.
28 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Koze kube nini lisala ukugcina imilayo yami lemithetho yami?
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻafē hoʻomou taʻefietauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi fono?
29 Bonani, ngoba iNkosi ilinikile isabatha, ngakho ilinika ngosuku lwesithupha isinkwa sensuku ezimbili; hlalani kube ngulowo lalowo endaweni yakhe, kakungaphumi muntu endaweni yakhe ngosuku lwesikhombisa.
Vakai, ko e meʻa ʻi he foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae Sāpate kiate kimoutolu, ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ai kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, ʻae mā ki he ʻaho ʻe ua: mou nofomaʻu taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono potu, ʻoua naʻa ʻalu ha tangata ʻe tokotaha mei hono potu ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.”
30 Ngakho abantu baphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa.
Ko ia naʻe mālōlō ai ʻae kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.
31 Indlu yakoIsrayeli yasibiza ibizo lakho ngokuthi yimana; njalo kwakunjengenhlanyelo yekhoriyanderi emhlophe, lokunambitheka kwayo kwakunjengezinkwana eziyizipatalala eziloluju.
Pea naʻe ui hono hingoa ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e Mana: pea naʻe hinehina ia ʻo hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita; pea ko hono ifo naʻe hangē ha mā kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae honi.
32 UMozisi wasesithi: Le yinto iNkosi elaye ngayo ukuthi: Gcwalisani i-omeri ngayo igcinelwe izizukulwana zenu, ukuze zibone isinkwa engalinika sona ukuthi lidle enkangala ekulikhupheni kwami elizweni leGibhithe.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Fakapito ʻaki ia ʻae oma ʻe taha ke fakatolonga ki homou toʻutangata ʻamui: koeʻuhi ke nau mamata ki he mā naʻaku fafanga ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he toafa, ʻi heʻeku ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
33 UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni: Thatha inqayi eyodwa, ufake kuyo i-omeri eligcwele imana, uyibeke phambi kweNkosi, igcinelwe izizukulwana zenu.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Toʻo mai ha ipu, pea fakapito ʻae oma ʻe taha ʻi he mana ʻo lingi ia ki ai, pea hili ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke tauhi maʻa homou ngaahi toʻutangata.”
34 Njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi, uAroni wayibeka phambi kobufakazi ukuze igcinwe.
Pea naʻe hili ia ʻe ʻElone ʻi he ʻao ʻoe Fuakava ke tauhi ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
35 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli-ke badla imana iminyaka engamatshumi amane baze bafika elizweni elakhiweyo. Badla imana baze bafika emngceleni welizwe leKhanani.
Pea naʻe kai mana ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he fonua naʻe kakai; naʻa nau kai mana ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he veʻe fonua ʻo Kēnani.
36 I-omeri-ke ingokwetshumi kwe-efa.
Pea ko e oma, ko hono vahe hongofulu ia ʻoe efa.
