5 Zvizvarwa zvose zvaJakobho zvakanga zviri makumi manomwe pakuwanda; Josefa akanga atova muIjipiti.

Hagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'nege'za, Jekopumpinti fore'ma hu'naza nagara maka 70'a naga'mo'za vu'naze. Hianagi Josefe'a ko Isipi umani'ne.

6 Zvino Josefa nehama dzake dzose navose vezera iroro vakafa,

Hagi henka Josefe'ma hu'nea zantmima keno antahino osu'nea ne'mo, Isipia kasefa kini efore huno kegava hu'ne.

9 Akati kuvanhu vake, “Tarirai, vaIsraeri vanyanya kuwanda kwazvo.

Ana kini ne'mo'a vahe'agura amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Keho, Israeli vahe'mo'za tagrira tagatere'za, rama'a vahe fore nehazageno, hankave zamimo'a tagatenere.

10 Uyai tivafungire zano nokuti vangazonyanya kuwanda uye kana hondo ikamuka, vangazobatana navavengi vedu, vakarwa nesu vakazobva munyika.”

E'ina hu'negu enketa mago'a kanku haketa zamazeri haviza hanunke'za vahera fore huhakarea osnaze. Ha'ma fore hanige'za, ha' vahetirega ante'za ha' hunerante'za kumatia atre'za vugahaze.

11 Saka vakagadza vatariri vebasa pamusoro pavo kuti vavadzvinyirire nebasa rechibharo, uye vakavaka Pitomu neRamesesi kuti ave maguta amatura aFaro.

Anage hige'za, kazokzo eri'za kva vahe zamazeri otizageno, Isipi kini ne' Fero'ma fenoma antesnia rankumatre, Pitomu kuma'ene, Rameses kuma'enena Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza nehazage'za ki'naze.

Tusi'a eri'za fukinteti briki trohu eri'zane, hozafi eri'zane mago'a eri'za zami'za, nomani'zazmia tusiza hu'za zamazeri amuho hazage'za zamarimpa akahezampi mani'naze.

15 Mambo weIjipiti akati kuna vananyamukuta vechiHebheru vainzi Shifura naPua,

Anante Isipi kini ne'mo'a, Hibru a'ne'mo'zama mofavre'ma kasenteku'ma nehzageno zamazama hukema kse nezmia Hibru a'trena, Sifrane Puagiznia amanage huno znasmi'ne,

16 “Pamunobatsira vakadzi vechiHebheru pakusununguka uye mukavacherechedza vachisununguka, kana ari mukomana, mumuuraye; kana ari musikana murege ari mupenyu.”

Hibru ane'mozama mofavrema kasentenaku'ma nehanageta zamaza hutama kasezmantesuta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma, zmatrenke'za maniho, hagi ne'mofavrema kasezmantesageta zamahe friho.

17 Asi, vananyamukuta vakanga vachitya Mwari, uye havana kuita zvavakanga varayirwa namambo weIjipiti kuti vaite; vakarega vanakomana vari vapenyu.

Hianagi ana a'tre'mokea Anumzamofonku koro nehuke, Isipi kini ne'mo'ma hanave kema huno'ma ne' mofavre'ramima zamahe frihoma hu'neana, zamahe ofri zmatrege'za mani'naze.

18 Ipapo mambo weIjipiti akadana vananyamukuta akavabvunza achiti, “Seiko maita izvi? Seiko marega vana vechikomana vari vapenyu?”

Ana higeno Izipi kini ne'mo'a ana a'trena ke higeke akeno anage huno znantahige'ne, Na'a higetna ne' mofavre'rmina zamahe ofrita zmatrake'za mani'naze?

19 Vananyamukuta vakapindura Faro vachiti, “Vakadzi vechiHebheru havana kufanana navakadzi veIjipiti; vane simba uye vanosununguka vananyamukuta vasati vasvika.”

Mofavrema zamaza huke kasezmi a'tre'mokea amanage huke Ferona kenona'a hunte'na'e, Hibru a'ne'mo'za zamagra Isipi a'negnara osu'za hanavenentake hu'nazanki'za, uohanati'nonke'za hanatinonke'za ame'ama hu'za mofavrea kasenentaze.

20 Saka Mwari akaitira vananyamukuta zvakanaka uye vanhu vakawedzerwa vakava vazhinji kwazvo.

Ana higeno Anumzamo'a mofavrema zamazama huke kasezami a'tre'na knare huznantegeno, Israeli vahera kase hakare hazage'za hanavenentake vahetami rama'a fore hu'za vu'naze.

21 Uye nokuda kwokuti vananyamukuta vaitya Mwari, iye akavapa mhuri dzavo pachavo.

Ana a'tremokea Anumzamofonku koro nehaku huno Anumzamo'a asomu huznantegeke znagranena agafa huke mofavre kasente'na'e.

22 Ipapo Faro akarayira vanhu vose kuti, “Vanakomana vose vanoberekwa munofanira kuvakanda murwizi Nairi, asi murege vanasikana vose vari vapenyu.”

Anante Fero'a ana maka Isipi vahe'a amanage huno hanavenentake ke huzmante'ne, Hibru a'nemo'zama ne' mofavrema kasezmantesazana, zmavaretma Naeli timpi matevu nezmatreta, mofa'nema kasezmantesagetma ozmahe zmatrenke'za maniho.
