< U-Eksodusi 2 >
1 Kwasekusuka indoda yendlu yakoLevi, yathatha indodakazi yakoLevi.
Ana nan, sai wani Balawe ya auri wata Balawiya,
2 Owesifazana wasethatha isisu, wazala indodana; eseyibonile ukuthi inhle, wayifihla inyanga ezintathu.
ta kuwa yi ciki, ta haifi ɗa. Sa’ad da ta ga jaririn kyakkyawa ne, sai ta ɓoye shi har watanni uku.
3 Kwathi engaselakuyifihla wayithathela isitsha semizi, wasibhada ngengcino langethara, wafaka umntwana kuso, wasibeka emihlangeni ekhunjini lomfula.
Amma da ba tă iya ɓoye shi kuma ba, sai ta yi kwandon kyauro ta shafa masa kwalta. Bayan haka sai ta sa jaririn a cikin kwandon, ta je ta ajiye kwandon tare da jaririn a cikin kyauro, a bakin kogin.
4 Udadewabo wasezimisa khatshana ukuze azi okuzakwenziwa kuye.
’Yar’uwarsa ta tsaya da ɗan rata tana lura da abin da zai faru da shi.
5 Kwasekusehla indodakazi kaFaro ukuyageza emfuleni; lamantombazana ayo ahamba eceleni komfula. Isibonile isitsha phakathi kwemihlanga, yathuma incekukazi yayo yasithatha.
Sai’yar Fir’auna ta gangara zuwa kogi domin tă yi wanka, bayinta kuwa suna tafiya a bakin kogi. Sai ta ga kwandon a ciyawa, ta aiki ɗaya daga cikin masu hidimarta tă ɗauko mata.
6 Kwathi isivula, yabona umntwana, khangela-ke, umfanyana wakhala inyembezi. Yasimhawukela yathi: Lo ngomunye wabafana bamaHebheru.
Da ta buɗe kwandon, sai ta ga yaro yana kuka, ta kuwa ji tausayinsa. Ta ce, “Wannan ɗaya daga cikin jariran Ibraniyawa ne.”
7 Udadewabo wasesithi endodakazini kaFaro: Ngihambe yini ngiyekubizela umfazi omunyisayo kumaHebherukazi ukuze akumunyisele umfana?
Sai’yar’uwarsa ta tambayi’yar Fir’auna, ta ce, “In tafi in samo ɗaya daga cikin matan Ibraniyawa tă yi miki renon yaron?”
8 Indodakazi kaFaro yasisithi kuye: Hamba. Intombi yasihamba, yabiza unina womfana.
Sai ta amsa ta ce, “I, tafi.” Sai yarinyar ta tafi ta kawo mahaifiyar yaron.
9 Indodakazi kaFaro yasisithi kuye: Thatha uhambe lalo umntwana, ungimunyisele yena; njalo mina ngizakupha iholo lakho. Owesifazana wasemthatha umntwana, wammunyisa.
Diyar Fir’auna ta ce mata, “Ɗauki jaririn, ki yi mini renonsa, zan kuwa biya ki.” Saboda haka ta ɗauki yaron, ta yi renonsa.
10 Umfana esekhulile, wamletha endodakazini kaFaro, wasesiba yindodana yayo. Yasisitha ibizo layo yathi nguMozisi, yathi: Ngoba ngamkhupha emanzini.
Sa’ad da ya yi girma, sai ta kawo shi wajen’yar Fir’auna, ya kuwa zama ɗanta, ta kuma ba shi suna Musa, tana cewa, “Na tsamo shi daga ruwa.”
11 Kwasekusithi ngalezonsuku, uMozisi esekhulile, waphuma waya kubafowabo, wakhangela imithwalo yabo; futhi wabona umGibhithe etshaya umHebheru kubafowabo.
Wata rana, bayan Musa ya yi girma, sai ya haura, ya tafi inda mutanensa suke, ya kuma ga yadda suke shan wahala da aiki. Ya ga wani mutumin Masar yana dūkan mutumin Ibraniyawa, ɗaya daga cikin mutanensa.
12 Wathalaza ngapha langapha; esebonile ukuthi kakulamuntu, wamtshaya umGibhithe, wamfihla etshebetshebeni.
Da ya leƙa nan da can bai kuwa ga kowa ba, sai ya kashe mutumin Masar, ya ɓoye shi a yashi.
13 Waphuma langosuku lwesibili, khangela-ke, amaHebheru amabili esilwa; wasesithi kowonileyo: Umtshayelani umakhelwane wakho?
Kashegari ya fita, sai ya ga Ibraniyawa biyu suna faɗa. Ya tambayi mai laifin ya ce, “Don me kake bugun ɗan’uwanka, mutumin Ibraniyawa?”
14 Wasesithi: Ngubani okubeke ube yisiphathamandla lomahluleli phezu kwethu? Wena uzimisele ukungibulala yini njengalokho ubulele umGibhithe? UMozisi wasesesaba wathi: Isibili udaba luyaziwa.
Mutumin ya ce masa, “Wa ya mai da kai mai mulki da mai hukunci a kanmu? Kana so ne ka kashe ni kamar yadda ka kashe mutumin Masar nan?” Sai Musa ya tsorata, ya yi tunani ya ce, “To, fa, abin nan da na yi, ya zama sananne.”
15 Kwathi uFaro eseluzwile udaba, wadinga ukumbulala uMozisi. Kodwa uMozisi wabalekela ubuso bukaFaro, wahlala elizweni leMidiyani; wahlala emthonjeni.
Da Fir’auna ya ji wannan, sai ya yi ƙoƙari yă kashe Musa, amma Musa ya gudu daga wajen Fir’auna, ya tafi ƙasar Midiyan inda ya zauna kusa da wata rijiya.
16 Njalo umpristi weMidiyani wayelamadodakazi ayisikhombisa; eza ukukha, agcwalisa imikolo ukunathisa umhlambi kayise.
To, fa, akwai wani firist na Midiyan, yana da’ya’ya mata bakwai, suka zo su shayar da dabbobin mahaifinsu.
17 Kwasekufika abelusi, bawaxotsha; kodwa uMozisi wasukuma, wawasiza wanathisa umhlambi wawo.
Sai waɗansu makiyaya suka zo suka kore su, amma Musa ya tashi ya taimake su ya shayar da dabbobinsu.
18 Lapho efika kuRehuweli uyise, wathi: Kungani libuye masinyane kangaka lamuhla?
Da’yan matan suka komo wurin Reyuwel mahaifinsu, sai ya tambaye su ya ce, “Yaya kuka dawo da wuri yau?”
19 Asesithi: Indoda engumGibhithe isophulile esandleni sabelusi; futhi yasikhela lokusikhela, yanathisa umhlambi.
Suka amsa suka ce, “Wani mutumin Masar ne ya taimake mu daga hannun waɗansu makiyaya. Har ma ya ɗebo ruwa ya shayar da dabbobin.”
20 Wasesithi emadodakazini akhe: Kambe ingaphi? Kanti liyitshiyeleni indoda? Ibizeni, ukuze idle isinkwa.
Ya tambayi’yan matansa, “To ina yake? Don me kuka bar shi a can? A gayyace shi, yă zo, yă ci wani abu.”
21 UMozisi wasevuma ukuhlala lendoda; wasemnika uMozisi uZipora indodakazi yakhe.
Musa ya yarda yă zauna da mutumin wanda ya ba da’yarsa Ziffora aure da Musa.
22 Wasezala indodana; wayitha ibizo layo uGereshoma, ngoba wathi: Ngangingowemzini elizweni lemzini.
Ziffora ta haifi wa Musa ɗa, ya kuma raɗa masa suna Gershom cewa, “Na zama baƙo a baƙuwar ƙasa.”
23 Kwasekusithi emva kwalezinsuku ezinengi, inkosi yeGibhithe yafa. Labantwana bakoIsrayeli babubula ngenxa yobugqili, bakhala; lokukhala kwabo kwenyukela kuNkulunkulu ngenxa yobugqili.
Ana nan dai, a kwana a tashi, sai sarkin Masar ya mutu. Isra’ilawa suka yi kuka mai zafi saboda bautarsu mai wuya, sai kukar neman taimakonsu saboda bauta, ya kai wurin Allah.
24 UNkulunkulu wasesizwa ukububula kwabo, uNkulunkulu wakhumbula isivumelwano sakhe loAbrahama, loIsaka, njalo loJakobe.
Allah kuwa ya ji kukansu sai ya tuna da alkawarinsa da Ibrahim da Ishaku da Yaƙub.
25 UNkulunkulu wasebona abantwana bakoIsrayeli, uNkulunkulu wabazi.
Sai Allah ya dubi Isra’ilawa, ya kuma damu da su.
