1 Ipapo muprista mukuru akamubvunza akati, “Izvi zvauri kupomerwa ndezvechokwadi here?”
Bhai, bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila gubhaabhushiye a Shitepano, “Genega ga kweli?”
2 Iye akapindura achiti, “Hama dzangu nemi madzibaba, nditeererei! Mwari wokubwinya akazviratidza kuna baba vedu Abhurahama paakanga achiri kuMesopotamia, asati agara muHarani.
Na bhalabho a Shitepano gubhajangwile, “Ashaapwanga na ashaatati, ngunajuga mmbilikanishiyanje! Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhashinkwaakoposhela atati a Bhulaimu pubhaaliji ku Meshopotamia bhakanabhe kwenda tama ku Alani.
3 Mwari akati kwaari, ‘Ibva munyika yako nokuhama dzako, uende kunyika yandichakuratidza.’
A Nnungu gubhaabhanjile a Bhulaimu, ‘Nnjabhule pa shilambo shenu, mwaalekanje ashaalongo ajenunji, nnjende mmbali jishininnanguye.’
4 “Saka akabva munyika yavaKaradhea akandogara muHarani. Shure kwokufa kwababa vake, Mwari akamutuma munyika ino yamugere zvino.
Kwa nneyo, a Bhulaimu gubhaamile shilambo sha Kalidayo, gubhapite tama ku Alani. Ainabhabho bhakamaleje a Nnungu gubhaashoshiye kabhili gubhaishe tama mmbali jinkutamangana jino.”
5 Haana kumupa nhaka imomo, kunyange paangatsika norutsoka rwake. Asi Mwari akamuvimbisa kuti iye nezvizvarwa zvake zvaimutevera vaizotora nyika ino, kunyange panguva iyoyo Abhurahama akanga asina mwana.
“A Nnungu wala bhangaapa a Bhulaimu nkali shilambo shimo kubha ulishi gwabho, ikabheje bhashinkwaalajila kuti, shibhaape shene shilambo shino shibhe shabho na ashibhana bhabho, ikabhe gene mobhago a Bhulaimu bhakakweteje mwana.
6 Mwari akataura naye achiti, ‘Zvizvarwa zvako zvichava vatorwa munyika isiri yavo, uye vachaitwa varanda vagotambudzwa kwamakore mazana mana.
A Nnungu gubhaabhalanjile nnei, ‘Ashibhana bhenu shibhapelekwanje kushilambo shangali shabhonji bhakabhanganje bhatumwa na bhonelwa kwa yaka mia pa sheshe.
7 Asi ndicharanga rudzi rwavachashandira senhapwa,’ ndizvo zvakataurwa naMwari, ‘uye shure kwaizvozvo vachabuda munyika iyoyo vagondishumira panzvimbo ino.’
Ikabheje nne shinishiukumule shene shilambo shishaatolanje ubhandasho. Kungai shinaashoyanje shene shilambosho bhajiyangane apano kubhandindibhalilanje.’
8 Ipapo akapa Abhurahama sungano yokudzingiswa. Abhurahama akabereka Isaka akamudzingisa zuva rorusere shure kwokuberekwa kwake. Shure kwaizvozvo Isaka akabereka Jakobho, uye Jakobho akabereka madzitateguru ane gumi navaviri.
Kungai gubhaapele malagano ga jaluka kubha shilangulo shabho. Kwa nneyo a Bhulaimu gubhantajile unyago mwanagwabho Ishaka lyubha lya nane lya bhelekwa kwakwe. Na a Ishaka nneila peila gubhantajile mwanagwabho Yakobho. Na a Yakobho nabhalabho gubhaatendilenje nneyo peyo ashinakulubhetu likumi limo na bhabhili bhala.”
9 “Nokuti madzitateguru akaitira godo Josefa, vakamutengesa senhapwa kuIjipiti. Asi Mwari akanga anaye
“Bhanyikala bhetu gubhammonelenje lupimililo mpwabhonji Yoshepu, kwa nneyo gubhang'ushiyenje kuubhanda ku Mishili. Ikabheje a Nnungu pubhaliji pamo naka Yoshepu,
10 akamununura kubva pamatambudziko ake ose. Akapa Josefa uchenjeri uye akaita kuti adikanwe naFaro mambo weIjipiti; saka akamuita mutongi weIjipiti nomuzinda wake wose.
a Nnungu gubhantapwile mmboteko yakwe yowe, gubhampele kubha mundu jwa mituka na lunda kwa a Palao bhakulungwa bha ku Mishili, mpaka a Palao gubhammishile kubha nkulungwa jwa Mishili na nyumba jabho.”
11 “Zvino nzara yakasvika muIjipiti yose neKenani, kukava nokutambudzika kukuru, uye madzibaba edu akashayiwa zvokudya.
“Kungai gushikoposhele shibhanga shilambo showe sha Mishili na ku Kanani nibha shilaje shikulungwa. Ashinakulubhetu bhakakwetenjeje shalya.
12 Jakobho akati anzwa kuti kuIjipiti kwaiva nezviyo, akatuma madzibaba edu parwendo rwavo rwokutanga.
Bhai, a Yakobho bhakapilikaneje kuti ku Mishili shishipagwa shalya, gubhaatumilenje ashinakulubhetu ku Mishili
13 Parwendo rwavo rwechipiri, Josefa akaudza madzikoma ake kuti iye aiva ani uye Faro akanzwa nezvemhuri yaJosefa.
Mwanja gwa bhili, a Yoshepu bhakwitagulilaga kwa ashaakulu bhabho na a Palao gubhaamanyinji ashaakulu bhabho a Yoshepu.
14 Shure kwaizvozvo, Josefa akatuma shoko kuti baba vake Jakobho, nemhuri yavo yose, vanhu makumi manomwe navashanu pamwe chete, vauye.
A Yoshepu gubhatumile ntenga kwa ainabhabho a Yakobho na ashalongo ajabho bhowe, bhajiyangane ku Mishili, pubhalinginji bhandu makumi shabha na nng'ano.
15 Ipapo Jakobho akaburuka akaenda kuIjipiti, uko kwaakandofira iye namadzibaba edu.
Kwa nneyo, a Yakobho gubhapite ku Mishili na ashinakulubhetu bhananji gubhawililenje kweneko.
16 Mitumbi yavo yakatakurwa ikaendeswa kuShekemu vakavigwa muguva rakanga ratengwa naAbhurahama kubva kuvanakomana vaHamori, paShekemu, nomutengo wemari yakati kuti.
Bhai, iilu yabhonji ikujigalwaga mpaka ku Shekemu, gwiishishilwe nnikabhuli libhaumile a Bhulaimu kubhandunji bha likabhila lya Bhaamoli.
17 “Nguva yakati yaswedera yokuti Mwari azadzise chipikirwa chake kuna Abhurahama, uwandu hwavanhu vedu muIjipiti hwakawedzerwa zvikuru.
“Jikaishileje miongwe ja malila malagano ga a Nnungu gubhalegene na a Bhulaimu, bhandunji bhetu ku Mishili kula gubhapundilenje kujenjesheka nibha likundi likulungwa.
18 Ipapo mumwe mambo, akanga asingazivi nezvaJosefa, akava mutongi weIjipiti.
Kungai, bhakulungwa bhamo bhakaamanyiji a Yoshepu gubhatemi muupalume ku Mishili.
19 Akabata vanhu vedu zvakaipa akadzvinyirira madzitateguru edu achivamanikidza kuti varase vana vachangoberekwa kuitira kuti vagofa.
Bhene bhakulungwabho bhashinkwaatendelanga yangali ya mmbone na kwaapotekanga ashinakulubhetu, bhalikwaamulishanga bhaalekanje palanga ashinambombe nkupinga bhawanganje.
20 “Panguva iyoyo Mozisi akaberekwa, uye akanga asiri mwanawo zvake. Akachengetwa mumba mababa vake kwemwedzi mitatu.
A Musha pubhabhelekwe gene mobhago, Musha pabhelekwe ashinkukonja. Kwa myei jitatu gwalelilwe nnyumba ja ainagwe.
21 Paakasiyiwa kunze, mwanasikana waFaro akamutora akamurera somwanakomana wake.
Bhakalepelanjeje kung'iya nnyumba gubhammishilenje palanga, abhiti Palao gubhannokwete, gubhannelile mbuti mwanagwabho.
22 Mozisi akadzidziswa uchenjeri hwose hweIjipiti uye aigona kwazvo kutaura nokuita zvinhu.
A Musha gubhajigenywe indu yowe ya lunda lwa Bhamishili, nibha bhandu bha manyika nkubheleketa na mwitendi.
23 “Mozisi paakanga ava namakore makumi mana okuberekwa, akafunga zvokundoshanyira hama dzake ivo vaIsraeri.
“Bhakaishileje yaka makumi nsheshe gubhatumbilile kwenda kwaalolanga ashaalongo ajabhonji bha Ishilaeli shibhakuti tendelwanga.
24 Akaona mumwe wavo achitambudzwa nomuIjipita, saka akasvika akamurwira akatsiva nokuuraya muIjipita uya.
Kweneko gubhammweni Mwishilaeli jumo alibhonelwa naka Mmishili, gubhapite kunnjangutila Mwishilaeli jula nkumpindikulila yatendelwe ila, gubhammuleje Mmishili jula.
25 Mozisi akafunga kuti vanhu vake vachaziva kuti Mwari ainge achimushandisa kuti avanunure, asi ivo havana kuzviziva.
Bhaliganishiya kuti Bhaishilaeli ajabhonji shibhamumanyanje kuti a Nnungu bhanakwaatuma kubhaagombolanje, ikabheje bhangamumanyanga.
26 Fume mangwana Mozisi akasvikowana vaIsraeri vaviri vachirwa. Akaedza kuvayananisa achiti, ‘Varume, muri hama imi; munodireiko kukuvadzana?’
Malabhi gakwe, gubhaabhweninji Bhaishilaeli bhabhili bhalikomananga, gubhalinjile kwaatapulanyanga bhalinkuti, ‘Mmanganya mmaulongo, kwa ndi nnabhonelana?’
27 “Asi murume uya akanga achitambudza mumwe akasundidzira Mozisi padivi akati, ‘Ndianiko akakuita mubati nomutongi wedu?
Ammonelaga mwine jula gwabhanokolele a Musha kunyenje alinkuti, ‘Gani ammishile mmwe kubha bhaukumula bhetu?
28 Unoda kundiuraya sokuuraya kwawakaita muIjipita nezuro?’
Bhuli, nkupinga mulaga malinga shimummuleje liyo Mmishili jula?’
29 Mozisi paakanzwa izvozvo, akatiza akaenda kuMidhiani, uko kwaakandogara ari mutorwa uye akabereka vanakomana vaviri.
“A Musha bhakapilikaneje gene malobhego gubhabhutwishe, gubhapite tama ujeni kushilambo sha Midiani, kweneko gubhakwete bhana bhabhili bhanabhalume.
30 “Makore makumi mana akati apfuura, mutumwa akazviratidza kuna Mozisi ari mumurazvo womoto mugwenzi, mugwenga raiva pedyo neGomo reSinai.
“Ikapiteje yaka makumi nsheshe, malaika jwa Bhakulungwa gwabhakoposhele a Musha pashitekete shakolelaga moto kuanga tome na Shitumbi sha Shinai.
31 Paakaona chinhu ichi, akashamiswa nezvaakaona. Akati achiswedera kuti anyatsoona, akanzwa inzwi raIshe richiti,
A Musha gubhakanganigwe kwa kaje bhakagabhoneje genego, bhakaegejeleje nkupinga bhalolesheye, gubhapilikene lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa.
32 ‘Ndini Mwari wamadzibaba ako, Mwari waAbhurahama, Isaka naJakobho.’ Mozisi akadedera nokutya akatadza kana kutarisa.
‘Nne a Nnungu bha ashinakulubhenu, a Nnungu bha a Bhulaimu na a Ishaka na a Yakobho!’ A Musha gubhajogwepe niungumila na wala bhangalinga kulolesheya kabhili.
33 “Ipapo Jehovha akati kwaari, ‘Bvisa shangu dzako; nokuti nzvimbo yaumire pairi itsvene.
Bhakulungwa gubhaabhalanjile. ‘Nng'ule ilatu yenu pabha punnjimi pano pa ukonjelo.
34 Zvirokwazvo ndaona kudzvinyirirwa kwavanhu vangu muIjipiti. Ndanzwa kugomera kwavo, saka ndaburuka kuti ndizovasunungura. Zvino uya, ndinoda kukutuma udzokere kuIjipiti.’
Gubhaalugulile, nikubhweni kubhonelwa kwa bhandu bhangu ku Mishili kula. Mbilikene shililo shabhonji, njituluka kukwaatapulanga. Bhai lelo, ngunakuntuma nnjende ku Mishili.’
35 “Ndiye Mozisi uya wavakanga varamba namashoko okuti, ‘Ndianiko akakuita mubati nomutongi wedu?’ Ndiye akatumwa naMwari pachake kuti ave mubati nomusununguri wavo, kubudikidza nomutumwa akazviratidza kwaari mugwenzi.
“A Musha pebho bhakanilwe na Bhaishilaeli bhalinkutinji, ‘Gani ammishile mmwe kubha mmakulungwa bhetu bha kutuukumula?’ Ni bhobho abhakoposhele malaika jwa kunnungu pashitekete shakolelaga moto, a Nnungu gubhaatumile a Musha kubha akalongolele na bhaukumula.
36 Ndiye akavabudisa muIjipiti uye akaita zvishamiso nezviratidzo muIjipiti, paGungwa Dzvuku uye kwamakore makumi mana murenje.
“Bhenebho ni bhaashoshiyenje bhandunji ku Mishili kula kwa ilapo nshilambo sha Mishili na pa bhaali ja Shamu na nng'anga, kwa yaka makumi nsheshe.
37 “Ndiye Mozisi uya akaudza vaIsraeri kuti, ‘Mwari achakutumirai muprofita akaita seni anobva muvanhu venyu chaivo.’
A Musha ni bhaalugulilenje Bhaishilaeli. ‘Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhenunji, shibhanng'agulilanje nkulondola jwabho jwa malinga nne kukopoka munkumbi gwa ashaalongo ajenunji, mumpilikanishiyanje jwenejo.’
38 Akanga ari muungano yaiva murenje, pamwe chete nomutumwa akataura kwaari paGomo reSinai, uye namadzibaba edu; uye akagamuchira mashoko mapenyu kuti azoasvitsa kwatiri.
A Musha pubhaaliji na bhandu bha a Nnungu kuanga naka malaika jwa kunnungu abhelekete nabho kushitumbi sha Shinai jula na ashainabhetu. Bhalabho ni bhapegwilwe malobhe ga taga gumi bhatulungushiye uwe.
39 “Asi madzibaba edu akaramba kumuteerera. Vakamuramba uye mumwoyo yavo vakadzokerazve kuIjipiti.
“Ikabheje ashinakulubhetu gubhakanilenje kwaapilikanila, nikwanokolelanga kunyenje mmitima jabhonji bhalilokolilanga kubhuja ku Mishili.
40 Vakati kuna Aroni, ‘Tiitire vamwari vachatitungamirira. Kana ari Mozisi uyu akatibudisa muIjipiti, hatizivi zvakamuwira!
Gubhaabhalanjilenje a Aluni. ‘Ntualashiye ashinnungu bha yanamu bhatulongoleyanje mumpanda, pabha a Musha bhatulongolele kukopoka ku Mishili tukakwiimanya yaakoposhele!’
41 Ndiyo nguva yavakaumba chifananidzo chakaita semhuru. Vakauya nezvibayiro kwachiri vakachipemberera vachikudza chinhu chakaitwa namaoko avo.
“Penepo gubhaialashiyenje shanamu sha litumbwe lya ng'ombe, gubhatandubhenje kushibhishila mbepei akuno bhalikushiangalilanga shindu shaalaya ashaayene kwa makono gabhonji.
42 Asi Mwari akavafuratira akavasiya kuti vanamate hondo dzokudenga, sezvazvakanyorwa mubhuku ravaprofita zvichinzi: “‘Makandivigira zvibayiro nezvipo makore makumi mana murenje here, imi imba yaIsraeri?
Ikabheje a Nnungu gubhaaleshilenje, nkupinga bhaitindibhalilanje indu ya kunani kuliunnde, malinga shiyajandikwe nshitabhu sha ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, ‘Mmanganya mmandu bha pa Ishilaeli! Mwambelenje indu na mbepei, kwa yaka makumi nsheshe kuanga kula?

44 “Madzitateguru edu akanga ane tabhenakeri yeChipupuriro pakati pavo murenje. Yakanga yakagadzirwa sokurayirwa kwakanga kwaitwa Mozisi naMwari, maererano nomufananidzo waakanga aona.
“Kuanga kula ashinakulubhetu bhakwetenje liema lya kong'ondela ndamo ja a Nnungu. Lyashinkualaywa na a Musha malinga shibhalugulilwe na languywa na a Nnungu.
45 Vakagamuchira tabhenakeri, vachitungamirirwa naJoshua, madzibaba edu akauya pamwe chete nayo paya pavakatora nyika kubva kundudzi dzakanga dzadzingwa pamberi pavo naMwari. Tabhenakeri yakagara munyika iyo kusvikira panguva yaDhavhidhi,
Kungai ashinakulubhetu bhatendaga poshelananga liema lila mpaka mobha ga a Yoshua, pubhatolilenje shilambo, ashaayene shilambo bhakabhingwanjeje na a Nnungu. Penepo gulitemi mpaka mobha ga a Daudi.
46 uyo akaitirwa zvakanaka naMwari uye akakumbira kuti avakire Mwari waJakobho nzvimbo yokugara.
A Daudi gubhatendelwe mituka na a Nnungu, gubhaajujile bhenebho bhaashenjele ndamo a Nnungu bha a Yakobho.
47 Asi Soromoni ndiye akazomuvakira imba.
Ikabheje a Shelemani ni bhaashenjele nyumba a Nnungu.
48 “Kunyange zvakadaro, Wokumusoro-soro haagari mudzimba dzakavakwa navanhu. Sezvinorehwa nomuprofita achiti:
“Nkali nneyo Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhakaatama nnyumba ja shenga mundu, malinga shibhaabheleketa ankulondola bha a Nnungu,
49 “‘Denga ndicho chigaro changu choushe uye nyika ndiyo chitsiko chetsoka dzangu. Ko, muchandivakira imba yakaita sei? ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe. Kana kuti nzvimbo yangu yokuzorora ichava kupiko?
Bhakulungwa bhakuti, ‘Kunnungu ni shitengu shangu sha upalume, na pa shilambolyo ni pa bhishila makongono gangu. Shinnjenjelanje nyumba ja shanabhuli? Kushindame pumulila kwei?
50 Ko, ruoko rwangu haruna kuita izvozvi zvose here?’
Indu yowei ng'eleye nne.’
51 “Imi vanhu vemitsipa mikukutu, vane mwoyo nenzeve dzisina kudzingiswa! Makangoita samadzibaba enyu: Munogara muchidzivisa Mweya Mutsvene!
“Mmanganya bha mbwinya! Mitima na makutu genunji gakakwakunda a Nnungu! Punninginji malinga ashinakulubhenunji. Mobha gowe nnakuntaukanga Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.

Mmanganya mwaposhelenje shalia jimwapegwilwenje naka malaika jwa kunnungu, ikabheje mwangakundanga.”
54 Vakati vanzwa izvi, vakashatirwa zvikuru uye vakamurumanyira meno avo.
Bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhakapilikananjeje genega, gujaapotekenje mitima, bhalikwiilumanga meno kwa shimwa.
55 Asi Sitefani, azere noMweya Mutsvene, akatarisa kudenga akaona kubwinya kwaMwari, uye Jesu amire kuruoko rworudyi rwaMwari.
Ikabheje a Shitepano akuno bhali bhagumbelwe naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, gubhalolile kunani, gubhagubhweni Ukonjelo Gwa puya gwa a Nnungu na a Yeshu bhajimi kunkono nnilo gwa a Nnungu.
56 Akati, “Tarirai, ndinoona denga razaruka uye Mwanakomana woMunhu amire kuruoko rworudyi rwaMwari.”
Gubhashite, “Nnolanje! Ngunakukubhona kunnungu kushiunukulwa na Mwana juka Mundu ashijima kunnilo kwa a Nnungu.”
57 Pavakanzwa izvi vakadzivira nzeve dzavo vakamhanyira kwaari vose, vachidanidzira namanzwi ari pamusoro-soro,
Penepo, bhandunji bhowe pa lukumbi pala gubhajobhelenje akuno bhaliibhanga makutu gabhonji na makono. Kungai gubhaaumbilenje kwapamo,

59 Vachiri kumutaka namabwe, Sitefani akanyengetera, akati, “Ishe Jesu, gamuchirai mweya wangu.”
Gubhapundilenje kwaakoma maganga akuno a Shitepano bhalijuga Nnungu bhalinkuti, “Mmakulungwa a Yeshu mposhele mbumu yangu!”
60 Ipapo akapfugama namabvi ake akadanidzira achiti, “Ishe, musavapa mhosva yechivi ichi.” Akati ataura izvi, akavata.
Gubhatindibhele, nigubhagutile kwa lilobhe likulungwa bhalinkuti. “Mmakulungwa nnaalombolanje kwa shene shilebhoshi.” Bhakabheleketeje genego gubhamalile. Na bhalabho a Shauli gubhashibhweni shitendi sha kwabhulaga a Shitepanosho, kuti sha mmbone.
