Musa anahewa uwezo
wa kuhenda vilinje
1 Phahi Musa wamuamba Mwenyezi Mlungu, “Dze, achirema kuniamini ama achirema kuniphundza na aambe, ‘Mwenyezi Mlungu kayakutsembukira?’ ” 2 Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuuza Musa, “Ukagbwirani mo mkpwononi?” Achiamba, “Nkagbwira ndata.” 3 Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba, “Hebu ibwage photsi.” Musa achiibwaga na ichigaluka nyoka, hata ye Musa mwenye achiichimbira. 4 Halafu Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba, “Golosa mkpwonoo uitsole na ko mchirani.” Phahi Musa wagolosa mkpwonowe achiitsola, nayo achigaluka ndata tsona. 5 Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba Musa, “Vivi ndivyo andaweza kuamini kukala Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wa akare ao, Burahimu, Isaka na Jakobo, wakutsembukira kpweli.”
6 Chisha Mwenyezi Mlungu achienderera kugomba na Musa achimuamba, “Tiya mkpwonoo mwako johoni.” Musa wautiya, na ariphoutuluza, lo! Uchikala u tele mahana hata uchikala ni mwereru dza bafuta. 7 Halafu achimuamba, “Wuuyize tsona johoni.” Phahi Musa wawuuyiza johoni, na ariphoutuluza, uchikala ukauyato dza viratu mwiriwe urivyo. 8 Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba, “Ichikala taandakuamini uwe wala hicho chilinje cha kpwandza, chahi andaamini hichi cha phiri. 9 Ela ichikala taandaamini vilinje vyosi viiri wala kukuphundza, heka madzi kula muho wa Naili, ugamwage tsi kavu, nago gachiguta yo tsi kavu tu, gandagaluka milatso.”
10 Musa achimuamba Mwenyezi Mlungu, “Ee Bwana wangu, mino hangu kare simi mgombadzi mnono, na hangu uchiphoandza kugomba bado mimi mtumishio siweza. Maneno gangu ni ga pore-pore na ga chigugumiza.” 11 Ndipho Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba, “Ni ani yemupha mwanadamu mromo? Ni ani amuhendaye mutu akale masito ama bwibwi? Ni ani yemupha mwanadamu matso ama ni ani amuhendaye chipofu? Dze, siye mimi, Mwenyezi Mlungu? 12 Sambi phiya, nindakuterya kugomba na nindakufundza ndigogomba.”
13 Ela Musa achiamba, “Bwana wangu, nakuvoya uhume mutu wanjina.” 14 Mwenyezi Mlungu achitsukirwa sana, achimuamba Musa, “Dze, ye nduguyo Aruni ambaye ni Mlawi kapho? Ninamanya kukala iye anagombato. Vivi iye a njirani aredza akuchinjire, na ndiphokuona andahererwa sana. 15 Uwe undakala uchimuambira ga kugomba mana nindakala phamwenga namwi kahi ya kugomba kpwenu na kukufundzani go mufwahago kuhenda. 16 Aruni andagomba na atu badala ya uwe, nawe undakala dza Mlungu kpwakpwe kpwa sababu undakala unamlagiza ndigogomba. 17 Ela tsukula hino ndata ili ukahendere vilinje nchivyokuonyesa.”
Musa anauya Misiri
18 Phahi Musa wauya kpwa mtsedzawe, Jethiro achendamuamba, “Nakuvoya uniruhusu niuye Misiri nkalole napho atu angu achere moyo.” Naye Jethiro achimuamba, “Phiya salama.” 19 Kabila Musa kadzangbwetuluka Midiani, Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuamba, “Uya Misiri mana atu osi okala analonda kukuolaga afwa.” 20 Musa wahala mchewe na anae, achiapandiza dzulu ya punda na achiandza charo cha kuuya Misiri, kuno akagbwiririra ndata ya Mlungu. 21 Tsona Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba Musa, “Uchifika Misiri, hakikisha ukahenda mbere za Farao vilinje vyosi nrivyokupha uwezo wa kuvihenda. Ela nindamtiya moyo mufu ili asiruhusu Aiziraeli kuuka. 22 Chisha umuambe vivi ye Farao, ‘Mwenyezi Mlungu anaamba kukala, Iziraeli ni mwanangu mvyere wa chilume. 23 +Nákuambira umriche mwanangu auke ili akaniabudu. Ela uchirema kumrichira mwanangu aphiye vyakpwe, phahi nindaolaga mwanao mvyere wa chilume.’ ” 24 Musa ariphokala anaphiya Misiri, mo njirani waphaha phatu pha kulala ajeni, Mwenyezi Mlungu achitaka kumuolaga. 25 Ela Zipora mkpwaza Musa achihala rumu ra dziwe achimdeka mwanawe mlume na achihala ro sunyu achimgutiza mlumewe maguluni. Chisha achiamba, “Kpwa kpweli u mlume wangu wa mlatso!” 26 Hipho Mwenyezi Mlungu achimricha Musa sebu amuolage. Zipora waamba hivi, “Mlume wangu wa mlatso,” mana kala akatambukira tsatsa.
27 Wakati uho, Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuamba Aruni, “Phiya jangbwani ukamchinjire Musa.” Phahi Aruni wakpwendakutana naye mwango wa Mlungu na achilamusana kpwa kumdonera. 28 Chisha Musa achimsemurira Aruni chila chitu arichokala Mwenyezi Mlungu akamuhuma, phamwenga na vyo vilinje vyosi vyolagizwa avihende. 29 Phahi Musa na Aruni aphiya Misiri phamwenga na achendakusanya atumia osi a Iziraeli. 30 Na Aruni achiaambira chila chitu ambacho Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuambira Musa, chisha achihenda vilinje vyosi mbere za nyo atu. 31 Atumia osi akuluphira, nao ariphosikira kala Mwenyezi Mlungu waona kugaya kpwa atu a Iziraeli na achisononeka, azamisa vitswa vyao na achimuabudu Mlungu.
