Eksodusi 2
Kuzalwa uMose, indodakazi kaFaro ithola uMose emkhunjini
1Kwasekuphuma umuntu wendlu kaLevi, wathatha indodakazi kaLevi.
2Owesifazane wakhulelwa, wazala indodana; lapho embona ukuthi ungumntwana omuhle, wamthukusa izinyanga ezintathu.
3Kwathi engasakwazi ukumfihla, wamthathela umphongolo wemizi, wawumboza ngodaka nangekolitayi, wamlalisa kuwo umntwana; wayibeka emhlangeni ngasosebeni lomfula.
4Udadewabo wema khatshana ukuze azi okuzakwenziwa kuye.
5Indodakazi kaFaro yehla ukuyogeza emfuleni; bheka, intombazane yayihamba eceleni komfula; lapho ebona umkhumbi phakathi kwezinhlaka, wathumela incekukazi yakhe ukuba iwulande.
6Eseyivula, wabona umntwana, bheka, umntwana wayekhala. Wamhawukela kakhulu, wathi: “Lo ungomunye wabantwana bamaHeberu.”
7Wayesethi udadewabo endodakazini kaFaro: “Ngihambe ngikubizele umzanyana phakathi kwabesifazane bamaHebheru ukuba akuncelisele umntwana na?”
8Indodakazi kaFaro yathi kuye: “Hamba!” Yahamba incekukazi yabiza unina womntwana.
9Indodakazi kaFaro yathi kuye: “Thatha lo mntwana omncane, ungincelisele yena, futhi ngizokunika umvuzo wakho.” Owesifazane wathatha umntwana, wamupha.
10Wakhula umntwana, wamyisa endodakazini kaFaro, waba yindodana yayo. Wambiza uMose, wathi: “Ngokuba ngamkhipha emanzini.”
11Ngalezo zinsuku uMose esekhulile waphuma ukuyobheka abafowabo nemithwalo yabo; futhi wabulala umGibhithe owayeshaye umHebheru, omunye wabafowabo.
12Wabheka ngapha nangapha, wabona ukuthi akukho muntu, wambulala owaseGibithe, wamthukusa esihlabathini.
13Esephuma ngosuku lwesibili, bheka, amadoda amabili amaHeberu ephikisana omunye komunye, wathi kowonileyo: “Umshayelani umngane wakho na?
14Wathi: “Ubekwe ngubani umbusi nomahluleli phezu kwethu na?” ubuhlose ukungibulala mina njengalokho ubulele umGibithe na? UMose wayesesaba, wathi: “Impela le ndaba yaziwa.”
15UFaro esekuzwile lokho wazama ukumbulala uMose. Kepha uMose wabaleka ebusweni bukaFaro, waya wahlala ezweni lakwaMidiyani, wahlala phansi ngasemthonjeni.
16Umpristi wakwaMidiyani wayenamadodakazi ayisikhombisa; afika akha amanzi, agcwalisa izitsha zokuphuzisa umhlambi kayise.
17Abelusi bafika, bawaxosha, kepha uMose wasukuma, wawasiza, waphuzisa imihlambi yawo.
18Base befika kuyise uRehuweli, wathi: “Nifike kanjani masinyane kangaka namuhla na?”
19Base bethi: “UmGibithe wasisindisa esandleni sabelusi, wasidalela amanzi, waphuzisa umhlambi.”
20Wathi emadodakazini akhe: “Uphi na?” umshiyeleni umuntu ukuthi adle isinkwa.
21UMose wavuma ukuhlala kulowo muntu, wamupha uMose indodakazi yakhe uZipora.
22Wamzalela indodana, wayiqamba igama lokuthi uGereshomu, ngokuba wathi: “Ngangingowezizwe ezweni labezizwe.”
23Kwathi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi inkosi yaseGibhithe yafa, abantwana bakoIsrayeli babubula ngenxa yobugqili, bakhala inyembezi, bakhala kuNkulunkulu ngobugqili.
24UNkulunkulu wezwa ukububula kwabo, uNkulunkulu wakhumbula isivumelwano sakhe no-Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe.
25UNkulunkulu wababheka abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, futhi uNkulunkulu wababona.
