1 Siku zizo kpwakala na mutu mmwenga wa mbari ya Lawi ariyephiya kpwendalóla mchetu wa chivyazi cha Lawi. 2 +Mchetu hiye wagbwira mimba na achivyala mwana mlume. Ariphoona yuya mwana ni mnono, wamfwitsa nyumbani miezi mihahu. 3 Ela yuya mwana ariphokala kaweza kufwitsika tsona, watengeza chidau cha nyasi na achichisaka lami. Wamlaza yuya mwana mo ndani halafu achendachiika guguni, kanda-kanda ya muho wa Naili. 4 Ndugu wa chichetu wa yuya mwana waima kanda kulola ndiromphaha nduguye.
5 Halafu mwana mchetu wa Farao wakpwedzaoga muhoni, na atumishie kala ananyendeka-nyendeka ko muhoni. Gafula yuya mwana wa Farao achiona chira chidau chinaengelela ndani-ndani ya gugu, achimuhuma mtumwawe mmwenga akachihale. 6 Ariphochireha, mwana wa Farao wachifwenula achiona mwana. Yuya mwana kala anarira, achimuonera mbazi na achiamba, “Hiyu ni mmwenga wa nyo ana a Chieburania.”
7 Halafu ndugungbwa wa yuya mwana achedzamuamba mwana wa Farao, “Nkakuendzere mchetu wa Chieburania edze akuamwisire hiyu mwana?” 8 Ye mwana wa Farao achimjibu achiamba, “Aya phiya ukaniendzere.” Phahi, yuya msichana wakpwendahala nine mwenye wa yuya mwana. 9 Yuya mwana wa Farao achimuamba yuya mchetu, “Muhale hiyu mwana ukaniamwisire, nami nindakuripha.” Phahi wamuhala yuya mwana na achendamuamwisa. 10 +Yuya mwana ariphofuhuka, wamphirika kpwa mwana wa Farao, naye achimuhala achimuhenda mwanawe mwenye. Achiamba, “Kpwa vira námtsola madzini, nindamuiha Musa.”*
Musa anachimbirira tsi ya Midiani
11 ++Siku mwenga, Musa ariphokala mvyere, wakpwendalola nduguze Aeburania, na achiona vira alazimishwavyo kuhenda kazi ngumu. Phahi wamuona Mueburania myawe anapigbwa ni Mmisiri. 12 Waphelephesa hiku na hiku, na ariphoona takuna mutu, wamuolaga yuya Mmisiri na achimfwitsa difwirini. 13 Kuriphocha, Musa wakpwendaweha tsona, achiona Aeburania airi anapigana. Phahi wamuamba yuya achiyemkosera myawe, “Mbona unampiga Mueburania myao?” 14 Yuya mutu achimuamba Musa, “Ni ani yekuhenda mtawala wehu na muamuli? Hebu unalonda uniolage dza vira vyomuolaga yuya Mmisiri?” Musa ariphosikira hivyo waogopha na achidziamba, “Higa mambo nrigohenda ni lazima gakale ganamanyikana!” 15 +Phahi Farao ariphogasikira, walonda kumuolaga Musa, ela Musa wachimbira hipho pha Farao, achendasagala tsi ya Midiani.
Siku mwenga Musa ariphokala asegere kanda-kanda ya chisima, 16 phakpwedza asichana sabaa ana a mlavyadzi-sadaka wa Midiani. Achedzaheka madzi achiodzaza mabirika ili kunwesa mangʼondzi na mbuzi za ise yao. 17 Ela kabila taadzangbwenwesa, kuchedza arisa anjina achiazoresa, phahi Musa waunuka achendaaterya na achinwesa go mangʼondzi na mbuzi zao. 18 Hara asichana ariphouya kaya, Reueli† ise yao waauza achiamba, “Mbona rero mkedza mapema?” 19 Nao achimjibu achiamba, “Kukedza arisa anjina akakala anahuzoresa, halafu Mmisiri mmwenga akahuokola, chisha akahuhekera madzi akanwesa mangʼondzi na mbuzi zehu.” 20 Naye Reueli achiauza, “Sambi akuphi ye mutu? Kpwa utu wani mkamricha kuko? Kamuiheni edze arye chakurya.”
21 Musa wakubali kpwendasagala kaya pha Jethiro. Badaye Jethiro wamupha Musa mwanawe yeihwa Zipora, akale mchewe. 22 Zipora wavyala mwana mlume na Musa achimuiha Gerishomu,‡ mana waamba, “Nachimbira kuphiya tsi ambako ni mjeni.”
23 Bada ya miaka minji, yuya mfalume wa Misiri wafwa. Aiziraeli alalamika kpwa sababu ya kazi za utumwa na achirira kulonda msada. Hicho chiriro chao chafika dzulu kpwa Mlungu. 24 +Mlungu wasikira kururumika kpwao na achitambukira chilagane arichoika na Burahimu, Isaka na Jakobo. 25 Mlungu waona vira Aiziraeli arivyokala anagayiswa, na achiaonera mbazi.
