1 Shure kwaizvozvo Mozisi naAroni vakaenda kuna Faro vakati, “Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri: ‘Rega vanhu vangu vaende, kuti vanondiitira mutambo kurenje.’”
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Musa ne Alooni ne bajja eri Falaawo, ne bamugamba nti, “Tutumiddwa Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri ng’akugamba nti, ‘Leka abantu bange bagende, bankolere embaga mu ddungu.’”
2 Faro akati, “Jehovha ndianiko, kuti ndigomuteerera uye ndigorega vaIsraeri vachienda? Handimuzivi Jehovha iyeye uye handidi kurega vaIsraeri vachienda.”
Naye Falaawo n’abaddamu nti, “Mukama ye ani, mmugondere, nzikirize Abayisirayiri okugenda? Mukama ssimumanyi, era sijja kubakkiriza kugenda.”
3 Ipapo vakati, “Mwari wavaHebheru akasangana nesu. Zvino tiregei tifambe rwendo rwamazuva matatu kurenje kuti tinobayira zvipiriso kuna Jehovha Mwari wedu, kuti arege kutirova namatambudziko kana nomunondo.”
Ne bamugamba nti, “Katonda w’Abaebbulaniya yatulabikira. Tukusaba otuleke tugende olugendo lwa nnaku ssatu mu ddungu, tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama Katonda waffe; aleme kututta ne kawumpuli, oba n’ekitala.”
4 Asi mambo weIjipiti akati, “Mozisi naAroni, munobvisireiko vanhu pabasa ravo? Dzokerai kubasa renyu!”
Naye kabaka w’e Misiri n’abagamba nti, “Mmwe Musa ne Alooni, lwaki mwagala okuggya abantu ku mirimu gyabwe? Muddeeyo mangu ku mirimu gyammwe.”
5 Ipapo Faro akati, “Tarirai, vanhu vawanda zvino munyika, uye muri kuvakonesa kushanda.”
Falaawo n’ayongera n’agamba nti, “Kale, mulabe abantu nga bwe beeyongedde obungi mu ggwanga ate mmwe mubaziyiza kukola.”
6 Musi mumwe chetewo Faro akarayira vatariri vebasa navakuru vakuru vavanhu achiti,
Ku lunaku olwo lwennyini Falaawo n’alagira abagabi b’emirimu ne bannampala b’abantu nti,
7 “Imi hamuchazovigiri vanhu uswa hwokuita zvidhina; varegei vandozviunganidzira uswa pachavo.
“Mulekeraawo okuwanga abantu essubi ery’okukozesa mu kubumba amatoffaali; mubaleke bagende beenoonyezenga essubi lyabwe.
8 Asi vanofanira kuita zvidhina zvakaenzana pakuwanda nezvavaisimboita kare; musazvitapudza. Isimbe; ndokusaka vachichema vachiti, ‘Tiregei tiende kundobayira kuna Mwari wedu.’
Naye mubalagire babumbenga obungi bw’amatoffaali bwe bumu nga ge babadde babumba; temukendeezanga ku muwendo ogwabasalirwa. Bagayaavu; era kyebava bankaabirira nti, ‘Tuleke tugende tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Katonda waffe.’
9 Itai kuti basa rinyanye kuomera vanhu kuitira kuti varambe vachishanda uye varege kuteerera kunhema.”
Abasajja mubongereko ku mirimu gye mubasalira, bakole nnyo, balyoke baleme na kufa ku ebyo bye babalimbalimba.”
10 Ipapo vatariri vebasa navakuru vakuru vakabuda vakandoti kuvanhu, “Zvanzi naFaro, ‘Handichazokupaizve uswa.
Awo abakozesa ne bannampala ne bagenda ne bategeeza abantu nti, “Falaawo agambye bw’ati nti, ‘Sijja kwongera kubawanga ssubi.
11 Endai mundozvitsvakira uswa kana kupi zvako kwamungahuwana, asi basa renyu haritapudzwi kana napaduku.’”
Mugende mwenoonyeze essubi yonna gye musobola okuliraba; kyokka emirimu gyammwe tegijja kukendeezebwako n’akatono.’”
12 Saka vanhu vakapararira muIjipiti yose kundounganidza mashanga kuti vaashandise pachinzvimbo chouswa.
Bwe batyo abantu ne basaasaanira Misiri yonna okukuŋŋaanya obukonge bw’essubi ly’eŋŋaano bakozese obwo mu kifo ky’essubi.
13 Vatariri vebasa vakaramba vachivamanikidza vachiti, “Pedzai basa ramakatarirwa pazuva rimwe nerimwe, sezvamaiita pamaiwana uswa.”
Abakozesa ne babakuluusanyanga nga babalagira nti, “Emirimu gyammwe egibasalirwa buli lunaku, mugituukirize nga bwe mwakolanga ng’essubi likyabaweebwa.”
14 Vakuru vakuru vavaIsraeri vakanga vagadzwa navatariri vebasa vaFaro vakarohwa uye vakabvunzwa kuti, “Seiko musina kupedza basa renyu rezvidhina zvanezuro nezvanhasi, sezvamaichiita kare pamaipuwa uswa.”
Bannampala Abayisirayiri, abaalondebwa abakozesa ba Falaawo, ne bakubibwanga nga bwe babuuzibwa nti, “Lwaki omuwendo gw’amatoffaali ogwa jjo n’ogwa leero ogwabasalirwa temugutuukirizza nga bwe mwakolanga edda?”
15 Ipapo vakuru vakuru vavaIsraeri vakaenda nechichemo kuna Faro vakati, “Seiko muchibata varanda venyu nenzira yakadai?
Awo bannampala Abayisirayiri ne bajja ne bajulira ewa Falaawo, ne bamugamba nti, “Ffe abaddu bo, lwaki otuyisizza bw’oti?
16 Varanda venyu havapiwi uswa, asi tinonzi, ‘Itai zvidhina!’ Varanda venyu vari kurohwa, asi mhosva ndeyavanhu venyu.”
Abaddu bo tetuweebwa ssubi, kyokka tulagirwa nti, ‘Mubumbe amatoffaali!’ Abaddu bo tukubibwa, so ng’omusango guli mu bantu bo.”
17 Faro akati, “Simbe, ndizvo zvamuri imi, muri simbe! Ndokusaka muchingoramba muchiti, ‘Tiregei tindobayira kuna Jehovha.’
Falaawo n’abaddamu nti, “Muli bagayaavu bugayaavu kyokka. Kyemuva mundeeberera nti, ‘Tuleke tugende tuweeyo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.’
18 Zvino chiendai kubasa. Hamuzombopiwi kana uswa, asi munofanira kuita basa renyu rezvidhina zvakakwana.”
Kale, mugende mukole! Temujja kuweebwa ssubi, naye muteekwa okubumba omuwendo gw’amatoffaali omujjuvu nga bwe gwabasalirwa.”
19 Vakuru vakuru vavaIsraeri vakaona kuti vapinda mudambudziko pavakaudzwa kuti, “Hamufaniri kutapudza uwandu hwezvidhina zvamakatarirwa pazuva rimwe.”
Bannampala Abayisirayiri ne bategeera ng’akacwano kabatuukiridde, bwe baagambibwa nti, “Omuwendo gw’amatoffaali ogwabasalirwa okubumbanga buli lunaku tegujja kukendeezebwako.”
20 Pavakabva pana Faro, vakawana Mozisi naAroni vakavamirira,
Bwe baava ewa Falaawo, baasanga Musa ne Alooni nga babalindiridde.
21 uye vakati, “Jehovha ngaakutarirei uye akutongei! Matiita chinhu chinonhuhwa kuna Faro namachinda ake uye maisa munondo muruoko rwavo kuti vatiuraye.”
Bannampala ne babagamba nti, “Mukama abatunuulire era asalewo; kubanga mutufudde ekyenyinyalwa ewa Falaawo n’abaweereza be, era mubakwasizza ekitala okututta.”
22 Mozisi akadzokera kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa Jehovha, mauyisireiko dambudziko pamusoro pavanhu ava? Ndizvo zvamakanditumira here?
Awo Musa n’akomawo awali Mukama, n’ayogera nti, “Ayi Mukama, abantu bano lwaki obaleetedde emitawaana? Eyo y’ensonga kyewava ontuma?
23 Kubva pandakaenda kuna Faro kuti ndinotaura muzita renyu, iye akauyisa dambudziko pamusoro pavanhu ava, uye imi hamuna kutongonunura vanhu venyu napaduku.”
Kubanga kasookedde ŋŋenda ne njogera ne Falaawo mu linnya lyo, abantu bo abataddeko ebizibu bingi; era abantu bo tobawonyezza n’akatono.”
