U-Eksodusi 9
1 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yana kuFaro uthi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamaHebheru, ithi: Yekela abantu bami bahambe ukuthi bangikhonze.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Genda ewa Falaawo omugambe nti, Mukama Katonda wa Abaebbulaniya agambye nti, ‘Leka abantu bange bagende, bansinze.
2 Ngoba uba usala ukubayekela bahambe, ulokhu ubabambile,
Singa ogaana okubakkiriza okugenda, n’oyongera okubakuumira wano,
3 khangela, isandla seNkosi sizakuba phezu kwezifuyo zakho ezisegangeni, phezu kwamabhiza, phezu kwabobabhemi, phezu kwamakamela, phezu kwenkomo laphezu kwezimvu, umatshayabhuqe wesifo onzima kakhulu.
Mukama ajja kusindika nsotoka omukambwe ennyo mu magana go agali mu malundiro, ne mu mbalaasi ne mu ndogoyi, ne mu ŋŋamira, ne mu zisseddume z’ente ne mu ndiga.
4 Kodwa iNkosi izakwenza umehluko phakathi kwezifuyo zakoIsrayeli lezifuyo zeGibhithe, kuze kuthi kakuyikufa lutho kukho konke okwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Naye Mukama ajja kwawulamu amagana aga Isirayiri n’aga Misiri, waleme kubaawo nsolo n’emu efa mu magana ag’abaana ba Isirayiri.’”
5 INkosi yasimisa isikhathi esimisiweyo, isithi: Kusasa iNkosi izakwenza linto elizweni.
Mukama n’alonda ekiseera, n’agamba nti, “Enkya Mukama w’anaakolera ekintu kino mu nsi eno.”
6 INkosi yayenza-ke linto kusisa; lazo zonke izifuyo zeGibhithe zafa; kodwa kakufanga lesisodwa ezifuyweni zabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Era enkeera Mukama n’akola ekikolwa ekyo: amagana aga Misiri gonna ne gafa, naye ne wataba nsolo n’emu ku magana ag’abaana ba Isirayiri eyafa.
7 UFaro wasethuma, khangela-ke, kakufanga ngitsho lesisodwa ezifuyweni zakoIsrayeli. Kodwa inhliziyo kaFaro yaba nzima, kasiyekelanga isizwe sihambe.
Falaawo n’atuma abantu okwetegereza, ne basanga nga tewali wadde ensolo n’emu ey’abaana ba Isirayiri eyali efudde. Naye era omutima gwa Falaawo ne gusigala nga gukyakakanyadde, Abayisirayiri n’atabakkiriza kugenda.
8 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi lakuAroni: Zithatheleni izandla zenu ezigcweleyo zomlotha weziko, njalo uMozisi awutsahazele emazulwini phambi kwamehlo kaFaro.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti, “Muyoole mu kyokero embatu z’omunyale, Musa agumanse waggulu mu bbanga nga ne Falaawo alaba.
9 Njalo uzakuba luthuli olucolekileyo phezu kwelizwe lonke leGibhithe, njalo luzakuba phezu kwabantu laphezu kwezifuyo lube lithumba eliphihlika amathuthuva elizweni lonke leGibhithe.
Gujja kufuuka nfuufu mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri, guleete amayute ku bantu ne ku nsolo aganaatulikamu amabwa mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri.”
10 Basebethatha umlotha weziko, bema phambi kukaFaro; uMozisi wasewutsahazela emazulwini, waba lithumba eliphihlika amathuthuva ebantwini lezifuyweni.
Bwe batyo ne bayoola omunyale mu kyokero, ne bagenda bayimirira mu maaso ga Falaawo. Musa n’amansa evvu waggulu mu bbanga, ne lifuuka amayute, ne gatulikamu amabwa ku bantu ne ku nsolo.
11 Njalo abalumbi babengeme phambi kukaMozisi ngenxa yamathumba; ngoba amathumba ayephezu kwabalumbi laphezu kwawo wonke amaGibhithe.
Abalogo ne batasobola kuyimirira mu maaso ga Musa olw’amayute; kubanga amayute gaakwata abalogo n’Abamisiri bonna.
12 Kodwa iNkosi yayenza yaba lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro, njalo kazabezwa, njengokutsho kweNkosi kuMozisi.
Naye Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, n’atawuliriza Musa ne Alooni, era nga Mukama bwe yagamba Musa.
13 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Vuka ekuseni kakhulu, uzimise phambi kukaFaro uthi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wamaHebheru ithi: Yekela isizwe sami sihambe bangikhonze.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Ozuukuka mu makya nnyo, n’ogenda oyolekera Falaawo, n’omugamba nti, Mukama Katonda wa Abaebbulaniya agamba bw’ati nti, ‘Leka abantu bange bagende, bampeereze.
14 Ngoba ngalesisikhathi ngizathumela zonke inhlupheko zami enhliziyweni yakho laphezu kwenceku zakho laphezu kwesizwe sakho, ukuze wazi ukuthi kakho onjengami emhlabeni wonke.
Kubanga ku mulundi guno nzija kukusindikira kawumpuli ku ggwe kennyini, ne ku baweereza bo, ne ku bakungu bo, olyoke otegeere nga tewali ali nga nze mu nsi yonna.
15 Ngoba khathesi ngizaselula isandla sami ukuze ngikutshaye lesizwe sakho ngomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ubusuchitheka usuke emhlabeni.
Kubanga nandiyinzizza okugolola omukono gwange ne nkusindikira olumbe, ggwe n’abantu bo, ne lubamalawo ku nsi.
16 Kodwa isibili ngalokhu ngikumisile ukuze ngikutshengise amandla ami lokuze ibizo lami lilandiswe emhlabeni wonke.
Naye olw’ensonga eno kyennava nkuleka n’obeera mulamu, ndyoke njolese amaanyi gange, era n’erinnya lyange liryoke litegeezebwe mu nsi yonna.
17 Usaziphakamisa umelana labantu bami, ukuthi ungabayekeli bahambe yini?
Kyokka okyekulumbaliza ku bantu bange n’otobakkiriza kugenda,
18 Khangela, kusasa ngalesisikhathi ngizanisa isiqhotho esinzima kakhulu, esingazanga sibe khona esinjalo eGibhithe kusukela ngosuku lisekelwa kuze kube khathesi.
noolwekyo, enkya obudde nga bwe buti, nzija kusindika kibuyaga ow’omuzira ogw’amayinja ogutagwangako mu Misiri kasookedde ensi eyo ebaawo.
19 Khathesi-ke thuma, ubuthe izifuyo zakho lakho konke olakho ensimini; wonke umuntu layo yonke inyamazana okuficwa ensimini okungabuthelwanga ekhaya, nxa isiqhotho siwela phezu kwakho, kuzakufa.
Kale, lagira bayingize amagana go ag’ente, n’ebisolo byonna ebiri mu ddundiro, kubanga omuzira gujja kukuba buli muntu ali ebweru era ajja kufa; ne buli nsolo yonna eneebeera ebweru mu ddundiro gujja kugikuba efe.’”
20 Lowo olesabayo ilizwi leNkosi phakathi kwenceku zikaFaro wenza izisebenzi zakhe lezifuyo zakhe zibalekele ezindlini;
Abakungu ba Falaawo abaali batya ekigambo kya Mukama, ne banguwa ne bayingiza abaddu baabwe n’amagana gaabwe.
21 kodwa lowo ongabekanga inhliziyo yakhe elizwini leNkosi watshiya izisebenzi zakhe lezifuyo zakhe ensimini.
Naye abo abatassaayo mwoyo ku kigambo kya Mukama ne baleka abaddu baabwe n’amagana gaabwe ebweru.
22 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelulela isandla sakho emazulwini, ukuze kube khona isiqhotho elizweni lonke leGibhithe, phezu kwabantu laphezu kwezinyamazana laphezu kwemibhida yonke yensimu elizweni leGibhithe.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo eri eggulu, omuzira gugwe ku nsi yonna ey’e Misiri: gukube abantu, n’ensolo, ne buli kimera kyonna ekiri mu nnimiro mu Misiri.”
23 UMozisi waseselulela intonga yakhe emazulwini; iNkosi yasiletha imidumo lesiqhotho; lomlilo wehlela emhlabeni; leNkosi yanisa isiqhotho elizweni leGibhithe.
Musa n’ayolekeza omuggo gwe eri eggulu; Mukama n’asindika okubwatuka n’omuzira; laddu ne yakira ku ttaka. Bw’atyo Mukama n’atonnyesa omuzira ku nsi y’e Misiri.
24 Kwasekusiba khona isiqhotho, lomlilo uzixubanise esiqhothweni; okunzima kakhulu; okungazanga kube khona okunjengakho elizweni lonke leGibhithe selokhu laba yisizwe.
Omuzira ne gugwa, n’okumyansa ne kwetabika n’omuzira awatali kusalako, ne guba mungi nnyo, nga tegugwangako bwe gutyo kasookedde ensi ya Misiri efuuka ggwanga.
25 Isiqhotho sasesitshaya elizweni lonke leGibhithe konke okusegangeni, kusukela ebantwini kusiya ezinyamazaneni; lesiqhotho satshaya wonke umbhida weganga, sephula sonke isihlahla seganga.
Omuzira gwakuba buli kintu kyonna ekyali ebweru mu nnimiro mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri: abantu n’ensolo; era omuzira ne gukuba buli kimera kyonna mu nnimiro, ne gusensebula emiti gyonna ku ttale.
26 Kuphela elizweni leGosheni lapho ababekhona abantwana bakoIsrayeli kwakungekho isiqhotho.
Ekitundu kyokka ekitaatuukwamu muzira, kye kya Goseni, abaana ba Isirayiri gye baabeeranga.
27 UFaro wasethuma wabiza uMozisi loAroni, wathi kubo: Ngonile ngalesisikhathi; iNkosi ilungile, kanti mina labantu bami sibabi.
Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni, n’abagamba nti, “Leero luno nnyonoonye; Mukama ye mutuufu, naye nze n’abantu bange ffe bakyamu.
28 Ncengani iNkosi, ngoba sekwanele, ukuze kungabi lemidumo elamandla lesiqhotho; besengiliyekela lihambe, lingabe lisahlala.
Weegayirire Mukama; kubanga omuzira n’okubwatuka bitwetamizza. Nzija kubaleka mugende; siraba kyemuva mweyongera kubeera wano.”
29 UMozisi wasesithi kuye: Nxa sengiphumile emzini, ngizachaya izandla zami eNkosini; kuzaphela imidumo lesiqhotho kasisayikuba khona, ukuze wazi ukuthi umhlaba ungoweNkosi.
Musa n’addamu nti, “Olunaafuluma mu kibuga, nnaagolola emikono gyange waggulu eri Mukama ne mmusaba. Okubwatuka kunaasirika, n’omuzira gunaalekera awo okugwa; olyoke otegeere ng’ensi eno Mukama ye nannyini yo.
30 Kodwa wena lenceku zakho, ngiyazi ukuthi kalikayesabi iNkosi uNkulunkulu.
Kyokka mmanyi nga ggwe n’abakungu bo temunnatya Mukama Katonda.”
31 Kwasekutshaywa ifilakisi lebhali; ngoba ibhali yayisesikwetshini, lefilakisi yayisithela amaluba.
(Obugoogwa ne sayiri byakubwa ne bizikirizibwa, kubanga sayiri yali ayengera nga n’obugoogwa bumulisizza.
32 Kodwa ingqoloyi lespelite kakutshaywanga, ngoba kwakungakavuthwa.
Naye eŋŋaano n’omukyere, byo tebyayonoonebwa kubanga byali tebinnayengera.)
33 UMozisi wasephuma emzini evela kuFaro, wachaya izandla zakhe eNkosini; kwasekusima imidumo lesiqhotho, lezulu kalabe lisathululeka emhlabeni.
Musa n’ava mu kibuga ewa Falaawo, n’awanika emikono gye eri Mukama ng’amusaba; okubwatuka n’omuzira ne bisirika, era n’enkuba n’ekya.
34 Kwathi uFaro esebonile ukuthi izulu lesiqhotho lemidumo sekumile, wengezelela ukona, wayenza yaba nzima inhliziyo yakhe, yena lenceku zakhe.
Naye Falaawo bwe yalaba enkuba, n’omuzira, n’okubwatuka nga birekeddaawo, ate ne yeeyongera okusobya; ye n’abakungu be ne bakakanyaza emitima gyabwe.
35 Njalo inhliziyo kaFaro yaba lukhuni, kazabayekela abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahambe, njengalokhu iNkosi yayitshilo ngesandla sikaMozisi.
Omutima gwa Falaawo bwe gutyo ne gukakanyala; n’ataleka baana ba Isirayiri kugenda, era nga Mukama bwe yayogerera mu Musa.
