< Kutoka 16 >

1 Jumuiya yote ya Kiisraeli ikaondoka Elimu, wakafika Jangwa la Sini, lililokuwa kati ya Elimu na Sinai, siku ya kumi na tano ya mwezi wa pili baada ya kutoka Misri.
Pea naʻe hiki honau fononga mei ʻElimi, pea haʻu ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he toafa ko Sini, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ʻElimi mo Sainai, ʻi hono hongofulu ma nima ʻoe ʻaho, ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, hili ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
2 Huko jangwani hiyo jumuiya yote wakawanungʼunikia Mose na Aroni.
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻi he toafa ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese mo ʻElone.
3 Waisraeli wakawaambia, “Laiti tungelikufa kwa mkono wa Bwana huko Misri! Huko tuliketi tukizunguka masufuria ya nyama na tukala vyakula tulivyovitaka, lakini ninyi mmetuleta huku jangwani ili mpate kuua mkutano huu wote kwa njaa.”
Pea naʻe lea ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kiate kinaua, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fakaʻamu ki he ʻOtua, naʻa mau mate ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi heʻemau kei tauʻutu ofi ki he ngaahi kulo kakano, pea ne mau kai mā ʻo mākona; he kuo mo ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki he toafa ni, ke tāmateʻi ʻae fakataha ni kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae fiekaia.”
4 Kisha Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Nitanyesha mikate kutoka mbinguni kwa ajili yenu. Watu watatoka kila siku na kukusanya kitakachowatosha kwa siku ile, kwa njia hii, nitawajaribu nione kama watafuata maelekezo yangu.
Pea naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Vakai, Te u fakaʻuha ʻae mā mei he langi maʻamoutolu: pea ʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai ʻo tānaki fakatuhotuha ki he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻae mā, koeʻuhi ke u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu, pe te nau felakaʻi ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau pe ʻikai.
5 Siku ya sita watatayarisha kile waletacho ndani, nacho kitakuwa mara mbili kuliko ya kile walichokusanya kila siku.”
Pea ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho ʻe fai pehē, te nau ngaohi ʻaia kuo na tuku, pea ʻe tuʻoua hono lahi hake ʻi he mā ʻoku nau ʻomi ʻi he ʻaho kehe.”
6 Kwa hiyo Mose na Aroni wakawaambia Waisraeli wote, “Jioni mtajua kwamba Bwana ndiye aliwatoa Misri,
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, “Te mou toki ʻilo ʻi he efiafi, kuo ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite:
7 kisha asubuhi mtauona utukufu wa Bwana, kwa sababu amesikia manungʼuniko yenu dhidi yake. Sisi ni nani hata mtunungʼunikie?”
Pea ʻi he ʻapongipongi, te mou mamata ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova he ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou ngaahi lāunga pea ko hai ʻakimaua, koeʻuhi ke mou hanu ai kiate kimaua?”
8 Pia Mose akasema, “Mtajua kuwa alikuwa Bwana wakati atakapowapa nyama mle ifikapo jioni na mikate yote mtakayohitaji asubuhi kwa sababu amesikia manungʼuniko yenu dhidi yake. Sisi ni nani? Hamnungʼuniki dhidi yetu, bali dhidi ya Bwana.”
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻe Sihova ʻae kakano kiate kimoutolu ʻi he efiafi, mo e mā ʻi he pongipongi ke mou mākona ai; he ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova hoʻomou lāunga ʻaia ʻoku mou lāunga ai kiate ia: pea ko hai ʻakimaua? ʻOku ʻikai kiate kimaua hoʻomou lāunga, ka kia Sihova.”
9 Kisha Mose akamwambia Aroni, “Iambie jumuiya yote ya Waisraeli kwamba, ‘Mje mbele zake Bwana, kwa maana amesikia manungʼuniko yenu.’”
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Tala ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, Mou haʻu ʻo ofi ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova he kuo ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou lāunga.”
10 Aroni alipokuwa akizungumza na jumuiya yote ya Waisraeli, wakatazama kuelekea jangwani, na huko wakaona utukufu wa Bwana ukitokeza katika wingu.
Pea vakai lolotonga ʻae lea ʻa ʻElone ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau sio atu ki he toafa, pea vakai, kuo ha mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻao.
11 Bwana akamwambia Mose,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
12 “Nimesikia manungʼuniko ya Waisraeli. Waambie, ‘Jioni mtakula nyama, na asubuhi mtashiba mikate. Ndipo mtajua ya kwamba Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu.’”
“Kuo u ongoʻi ʻae lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: lea kiate kinautolu ʻo pehē, ʻi he efiafi te mou kai kakano, pea ʻi he pongipongi te mou mākona ʻi he mā: pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.”
13 Jioni ile kware wakaja wakaifunika kambi na asubuhi kulikuwa na tabaka la umande kuzunguka kambi.
Pea ʻi heʻene efiafi naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe haʻu ʻae fuifui kueili, pea naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻae ʻapitanga; pea ʻi he pongipongi naʻe ʻufiʻufi takatakai ʻae ʻapitanga ʻe he hahau.
14 Wakati umande ulipoondoka, vipande vidogo vidogo kama theluji vilionekana juu ya uso wa jangwa.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻae hahau naʻe ʻūfia ai, vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he funga toafa ʻae meʻa siʻi potopoto, ʻo hangē ko e hahau fefeka ʻi he kelekele.
15 Waisraeli walipoona, wakaambiana, “Hiki ni nini?” Kwa kuwa hawakujua kilikuwa kitu gani. Mose akawaambia, “Huu ndio mkate ambao Bwana amewapa mle.
Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā ia?” He naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo pe ko e hā. Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu, “Ko e mā eni kuo foaki mai ʻe Sihova ke mou kai.
16 Hivi ndivyo Bwana alivyoamuru: ‘Kila mmoja akusanye kiasi anachohitaji. Chukueni pishi moja kwa kila mtu mliye naye katika hema yenu.’”
Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Tānaki ia ʻe he tangata kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai, ko e oma ʻe taha mā ʻae tangata taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki he lau ʻo homou kakai; ke toʻo taki taha ʻae tangata maʻanautolu ʻoku ʻi hono ngaahi fale fehikitaki.”
17 Waisraeli wakafanya kama walivyoambiwa, baadhi yao wakakusanya zaidi, wengine pungufu.
Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo tānaki ia, naʻe lahi ʻae niʻihi, pea siʻi ʻae niʻihi.
18 Nao walipopima katika pishi, yule aliyekusanya zaidi hakuwa na ziada, wala aliyekusanya kidogo hakupungukiwa. Kila mmoja alikusanya kiasi alichohitaji.
Pea kuo fakafuofua ʻaki ia ʻae oma, naʻe ʻikai hano toe, kiate ia naʻe tānaki ʻo lahi, pea ko ia naʻe tānaki siʻi naʻe ʻikai hano masiva; naʻa nau tānaki ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai.
19 Kisha Mose akawaambia, “Mtu yeyote asibakize chochote mpaka asubuhi.”
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ʻe ha tangata hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi.”
20 Hata hivyo, wengine hawakuzingatia aliyosema Mose, wakahifadhi kiasi fulani mpaka asubuhi, lakini kile alichohifadhi kikajaa mabuu na kuanza kunuka. Kwa hiyo Mose akawakasirikia.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga kia Mōsese; ka ko honau niʻihi naʻe tuku hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi, pea naʻe ʻuangahia ia, pea namuaʻa; pea naʻe ʻita ʻa Mōsese kiate kinautolu.
21 Kila asubuhi, kila mmoja alikusanya kiasi alichohitaji na jua lilipokuwa kali, iliyeyuka.
Pea naʻa nau tānaki ia ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo tatau mo ʻene kai: pea ʻi he hoko ʻo vela ʻae laʻā, naʻe vai ʻo ʻosi ia.
22 Siku ya sita, wakakusanya mara mbili, kiasi cha pishi mbili kwa kila mtu, nao viongozi wa jumuiya wakaja kumwarifu Mose.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, naʻa nau tānaki ʻo tuʻo ua hono lahi hake ʻoe mā, ko e oma ʻe ua ki he tangata pe taha: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai ʻo tala ia kia Mōsese.
23 Mose akawaambia, “Hivi ndivyo alivyoagiza Bwana: ‘Kesho itakuwa siku ya mapumziko, Sabato takatifu kwa Bwana. Kwa hiyo okeni kile mnachotaka kuoka na mchemshe kile mnachotaka kuchemsha. Hifadhini chochote kinachobaki na mkiweke mpaka asubuhi.’”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ia kuo folofola ai ʻa Sihova, Ko e mālōlō ʻoe Sāpate māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova ʻapongipongi: taʻo he ʻaho ni, ʻaia te mou taʻo, pea haka ʻaia te mou haka: pea ko ia ʻoku toe, hilifaki ia ki he ʻapongipongi maʻamoutolu.”
24 Kwa hiyo wakavihifadhi mpaka asubuhi, kama Mose alivyoagiza, na havikunuka wala kuwa na mabuu.
Pea naʻa nau hilifaki ki he ʻapongipongi, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese: pea naʻe ʻikai namuaʻa, pea naʻe ʻikai ha ʻuanga ʻi ai.
25 Mose akawaambia, “Kuleni leo, kwa sababu leo ni Sabato kwa Bwana. Hamtapata chochote juu ya nchi leo.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Kai ia he ʻaho ni; he ko e ʻaho ni ko e Sāpate ia kia Sihova: ʻe ʻikai te mou ʻilo ia he ʻaho ni ʻi he ngoue.
26 Kwa siku sita mtakusanya, lakini siku ya saba, yaani Sabato, hakutakuwepo chochote.”
Ko e ʻaho ʻe ono te mou tānaki ia; ka ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻaia ko e Sāpate, ʻe ʻikai siʻi ʻi ai ia.”
27 Hata hivyo, baadhi ya watu wakatoka kwenda kukusanya siku ya saba, lakini hawakupata chochote.
Pea hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ke tānaki, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia.
28 Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Je, mtaacha kushika maagizo na maelekezo yangu mpaka lini?
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻafē hoʻomou taʻefietauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi fono?
29 Fahamuni kuwa Bwana amewapa ninyi Sabato, ndiyo sababu katika siku ya sita amewapa mikate ya siku mbili. Kila mmoja inampasa kukaa pale alipo katika siku ya saba. Hata mmoja haruhusiwi kutoka.”
Vakai, ko e meʻa ʻi he foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae Sāpate kiate kimoutolu, ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ai kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, ʻae mā ki he ʻaho ʻe ua: mou nofomaʻu taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono potu, ʻoua naʻa ʻalu ha tangata ʻe tokotaha mei hono potu ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.”
30 Kwa hiyo watu wakapumzika siku ya saba.
Ko ia naʻe mālōlō ai ʻae kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.
31 Watu wa Israeli wakaita ile mikate mana Ilikuwa myeupe kama mbegu za mtama na ladha yake ilikuwa kama mkate mwembamba uliotengenezwa kwa asali.
Pea naʻe ui hono hingoa ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e Mana: pea naʻe hinehina ia ʻo hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita; pea ko hono ifo naʻe hangē ha mā kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae honi.
32 Mose akasema, “Hivi ndivyo alivyoagiza Bwana: ‘Chukueni pishi ya mana na kuhifadhi kwa ajili ya vizazi vijavyo ili vione mikate niliyowapa mle jangwani nilipowatoa katika nchi ya Misri.’”
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Fakapito ʻaki ia ʻae oma ʻe taha ke fakatolonga ki homou toʻutangata ʻamui: koeʻuhi ke nau mamata ki he mā naʻaku fafanga ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he toafa, ʻi heʻeku ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
33 Kwa hiyo Mose akamwambia Aroni, “Chukua gudulia na uweke pishi moja ya mana ndani yake. Kisha uweke mbele za Bwana ili kihifadhiwe kwa ajili ya vizazi vijavyo.”
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Toʻo mai ha ipu, pea fakapito ʻae oma ʻe taha ʻi he mana ʻo lingi ia ki ai, pea hili ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke tauhi maʻa homou ngaahi toʻutangata.”
34 Kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose, hatimaye Aroni alikuja kuihifadhi ndani ya Sanduku la Ushuhuda.
Pea naʻe hili ia ʻe ʻElone ʻi he ʻao ʻoe Fuakava ke tauhi ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
35 Waisraeli wakala mana kwa miaka arobaini, mpaka walipofika katika nchi iliyokaliwa na watu; walikula mana hadi walipofika mpakani mwa Kanaani.
Pea naʻe kai mana ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he fonua naʻe kakai; naʻa nau kai mana ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he veʻe fonua ʻo Kēnani.
36 (Pishi moja ni sehemu ya kumi ya kipimo cha efa.)
Pea ko e oma, ko hono vahe hongofulu ia ʻoe efa.
