2 Mose 18

1 Ankyɛ biara na Mose ase, Midian sɔfo Yetro, tee anwonwade a Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama ne nkurɔfo Israelfo ne Mose, ne sɛnea wayi wɔn afi Misraim asase so no.

Yesero, kabona w’e Midiyaani, era kitaawe wa mukyala wa Musa, n’awulira byonna Katonda bye yakolera Musa n’abantu be, Abayisirayiri; era nga Mukama yaggya Isirayiri mu Misiri.

2 Mose de ne yere Sipora kɔe no, nʼase Yetro gyee no

Ye yalabiriranga Zipola, mukyala wa Musa; kubanga Musa yali amuzzizza ewaabwe ng’amumulekedde,

3 a na ne mmabarima baanu ka ne ho. Mose too ne babarima a na ɔyɛ nʼabakan no din Gersom a ɔkyerɛ ase se, “Mabɛyɛ ɔhɔho wɔ ananafo asase so.”

ne batabani be babiri. Mutabani we omu yamutuuma Gerusomu, kubanga Musa yagamba nti, “Mbadde mugwira mu nsi etali yange;”

4 Na ne babarima a ɔto so abien no nso, ɔtoo ne din Elieser a ɔkyerɛ ase se “Mʼagyanom Nyankopɔn no yɛ me boafo. Ogyee me fii Farao afoa ano.”

n’erinnya ly’omulala lyali Eryeza, kubanga yagamba nti, “Katonda wa kitange ye yali omubeezi wange, era n’amponya ekitala kya Falaawo.”

5 Yetro kɔsraa Mose. Ɔde Mose yere ne ne mmabarima baanu no kaa ne ho. Wodui no, na Mose ne nnipa no abɔ atenae wɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔw no ho.

Yesero, mukoddomi wa Musa, n’ajja ne batabani ba Musa ne mukyala we eri Musa mu ddungu, we yali asiisidde okuliraana olusozi lwa Katonda.

6 Wɔka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Wʼase Yetro reba abɛsra wo. Wo yere ne wo mmabarima baanu no ka ne ho.”

Yesero yali amutumidde nti, “Nze Yesero mukoddomi wo, nzija okukulabako. Ndi ne mukyala wo ne batabani be bombi.”

7 Mose sɔre kohyiaa nʼase. Ɔkotow no nidi mu gyee no fɛw so. Wokyiakyiaa wɔn ho wɔn ho na wɔkɔɔ Mose ntamadan mu.

Awo Musa n’afuluma n’agenda okwaniriza mukoddomi we; n’akutamako ng’amulamusa, n’amugwa mu kifuba. Ne balamusaganya, n’oluvannyuma ne bayingira mu weema.

8 Mose kaa nsɛm a asisi nyinaa kyerɛɛ nʼase no. Ɔkaa nea Awurade ayɛ atia Farao ne Misraimfo a ɔnam so agye Israelfo, ayi wɔn afi Misraim, asan ayi wɔn afi ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ mu no nso kyerɛɛ no.

Musa n’anyumiza mukoddomi we ebyo byonna Mukama bye yakola Falaawo n’Abamisiri ng’abalanga Isirayiri; n’ebizibu ebyabatuukako mu lugendo lwabe, ne Mukama nga bwe yabibawonya.

9 Yetro tee nea Awurade ayɛ ama Israel, ne titiriw no, sɛnea oyii wɔn fii Misraim no, nʼani gyee yiye.

Yesero n’asanyuka nnyo okuwulira ebirungi ebyo byonna Mukama bye yakolera Isirayiri, ng’abanunula ku Bamisiri.

10 Yetro kae se, “Nhyira nka Awurade sɛ wagye mo afi Misraimfo ne Farao nsam, na wagye ɔman Israel nso.

Yesero n’agamba nti, “Mukama atenderezebwe eyabanunula mu mikono gy’Abamisiri ne mu mukono gwa Falaawo, n’aggya abantu be mu mikono gy’Abamisiri.

11 Afei, mahu sɛ Awurade yɛ ɔkɛse sen onyame foforo biara, efisɛ wayɛ eyi ama wɔn a wɔde ahantan di wɔn so no.”

Kaakano ntegedde nga Mukama mukulu wa kitiibwa okukira bakatonda bonna, kubanga yanunula abantu be mu mikono gyabo abaali babeeragirako.”

12 Yetro de ɔhyew afɔrebɔde bae, na ɔbɔɔ afɔre maa Onyankopɔn. Akyiri no, Aaron ne Israel mpanyimfo no baa Yetro nkyɛn. Wɔn nyinaa too nsa dii afɔreguan no wɔ Awurade anim.

Awo Yesero, mukoddomi wa Musa, n’awaayo eri Katonda ekiweebwayo ekyokye ne ssaddaaka endala; Alooni n’abakulembeze ba Isirayiri bonna ne balya ne mukoddomi wa Musa emmere mu maaso ga Katonda.

13 Ade kyee no, Mose tenaa ase fii anɔpa kosii anwummere tiee ntawntaw a asisi wɔ nnipa no mu.

Awo bwe bwakya enkya, Musa n’atuula ku ntebe ye okulamula abantu. Abantu ne bamwetooloola okuva enkya okutuusa akawungeezi.

14 Mose ase no huu brɛ a ɔrebrɛ nnipa no ho no, obisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wopɛ sɛ wo nko ara wudi dwuma kɛse yi a enti nnipa gyina wo so saa ara fi anɔpa kosi anwummere yi?”

Mukoddomi we bwe yalaba Musa bye yali akolera abantu, n’amugamba nti, “Kiki kino ky’okola? Lwaki olamula bw’omu, abantu bano bonna ne bayimirira okukwetooloola okuva ku nkya okutuusa akawungeezi?”

15 Mose buae se, “Nnipa no de akasakasa bi a asisi wɔn ntam bɛtoo mʼanim sɛ mimmisa Onyankopɔn hɔ akwankyerɛ.

Musa n’addamu mukoddomi we nti, “Kubanga abantu bajja gye ndi bategeere Katonda by’ayagala.

16 Sɛ ntawntaw bi ba wɔn ntam a, wɔba ma misiesie. Mekyerɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn mmara ne nʼapɛde.”

Buli lwe babeera n’obutakkiriziganya, bajja gye ndi, ne mbasalirawo, era ne mbategeeza amateeka ga Katonda n’ebiragiro bye.”

17 Nʼase no kae se, “Nea woreyɛ no nye.

Mukoddomi wa Musa n’amugamba nti, “Ky’okola si kirungi.

18 Worekum wo ho na sɛ wuwu a, nnipa yi bɛyɛ dɛn? Mose, adwuma yi so dodo sɛ wo nko ara wobɛyɛ.

Ggwe, n’abantu bano bonna abajja gy’oli, mujja kukoowa nnyo. Kubanga omulimu guno munene nnyo; tosobola kugukola bw’omu.

19 Tie fo a merebetu wo yi na Onyankopɔn behyira wo. Kɔ so ara si nnipa no anan wɔ Onyankopɔn anim na fa wɔn haw to nʼanim.

Nkusaba ompulirize nkusalire ku magezi, ne Katonda ng’ali naawe. Osaana obeere omubaka w’abantu ewa Katonda, era omutuusengako ensonga zaabwe.

20 Kyerɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn akwan a wɔmfa so ntena ase.

Bayigirize amateeka n’ebiragiro, era obalage nga bwe basaana okweyisanga, awamu n’emirimu gye basaanidde okukola.

21 Na hwehwɛ nnipa bi a wɔyɛ nyamesurofo na wɔyɛ nokwafo a wɔmpɛ adanmudegye, na wɔn mu baako biara nyɛ nnipa apem so otemmufo. Ɛsɛ sɛ saa onipa no nya atemmufo du hyɛ nʼase na wɔn mu baako biara ahwɛ nnipa ɔha so. Na wɔn ase no, wobeyi atemmufo baanu a wɔbɛhwɛ nnipa aduonum so, na wɔn nso, atemmufo baanum bɛhyɛ wɔn mu biara ase na wɔatu nnipa du fo.

Londayo abasajja abalina ebisaanyizo, ng’obaggya mu bantu bonna, abasajja abatya Katonda, ab’amazima era abatalya nguzi; obawe obukulembeze, ng’abamu bavunaanyizibwa abantu enkumi, n’abalala abantu ebikumi, n’abamu ebibiina eby’ataano n’abalala eby’ekkumi kkumi.

22 Ma saa nnipa yi nni wɔn ho ni na wonni nokware daa. Asɛm biara a ɛho hia anaa ɛkyere adwene no, wɔmfa mmra wʼanim. Wɔn ankasa nhwɛ nka nsɛm nketenkete a ɛbɛba wɔn anim no. Sɛ wofa saa kwan yi so a, adwuma no bɛyɛ mmerɛw ama wo, efisɛ woakyekyɛ nnwuma no ama wɔn.

Bawe obuyinza okulamulanga abantu ebbanga lyonna, naye ng’emisango emizibu bagikuleetera, emisango emyangu bo bagisalenga. Ekyo kinaawewulanga ku buzito bw’omugugu gwo, kubanga banaabanga bagukukwatirako.

23 Sɛ wutie afotu no na Onyankopɔn nso pene so a, wubetumi agyina asɛm biara ano na asomdwoe aba.”

Singa okola bw’otyo, nga ne Katonda bw’akulagidde, ojja kusobola okugumira emirimu egyo, era n’abantu bano bonna balyoke baddeyo ewaabwe nga basanyuse.”

24 Mose tiee nʼase afotu no dii so pɛpɛɛpɛ.

Musa bw’atyo n’awuliriza amagezi gonna mukoddomi we ge yamuwa, n’akolera ku ebyo byonna bye yamubuulirira.

25 Oyiyii nnipa pa a wɔwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa de wɔn yɛɛ atemmufo—apem apem, ɔha ɔha, aduonum aduonum ne du du.

Musa n’alonda mu Isirayiri yonna abasajja abasobola, n’abafuula abakulembeze b’abantu; nga bavunaanyizibwa enkumi, n’abalala ebikumi, n’abamu amakumi ataano ataano, n’abalala kkumi kkumi.

26 Na wobuu ɔman no atɛn bere nyinaa mu. Wɔde nsɛm akɛse no maa Mose na wɔn nso dii nsɛm nketenkete no.

Ne balamula abantu ebbanga lyonna. Emisango emizibu nga bagireetera Musa, naye emyangu nga bagisala.

27 Akyiri no, Mose gyaa nʼase kwan ma ɔkɔɔ ne kurom.

Awo Musa n’asiibula mukoddomi we, mukoddomi we n’akwata ekkubo ne yeddirayo mu nsi y’ewaabwe.
