Ukufa kwemfuyo
1*UNdikhoyo wabhekisa kuMosis wathi: “Yiya kukumkani waseJiputa, uthi kuye: ‘UNdikhoyo uThixo wamaHebhere uthethe wenjenje: “Khulula abantu bam, baye kundikhonza.” 2Ukuba uyala ukubakhulula, 3uNdikhoyo uya kukohlwaya ngokuthumela isibetho esoyikekayo kwimfuyo yakho: amahashe, iidonki, iinkamela, iinkomo, iigusha, neebhokhwe. 4Uya kuyikhetha imfuyo yamaSirayeli kweyamaJiputa. EyamaSirayeli imfuyo soze ife. 5Le nto ke iya kwenzeka ngomso.’ ”
6Ngengomso ke uNdikhoyo wenza njengoko wayethethile. Yonke imfuyo yamaJiputa yafa, kodwa kweyamaSirayeli zange kufe nob' ibe nye. 7Ukumkani wathuma amadoda aye kukhangela ukuba kube njani na kwimfuyo yamaSirayeli, waza waxelelwa ukuba akufanga nale inye. Naxa kunjalo wankaniza, akavuma ukuwakhulula amaSirayeli.
Amathumba
8*UNdikhoyo wabiza uMosis noAron, wathi kubo: “Yikhani uthuthu ngezandla, nize niye kwakumkani, uMosis aluphose phezulu ukumkani ebukele. 9Luya kuphephetheka njengothuli kulo lonke elaseJiputa. Luya kudala amathumba aya kubhidla abe zizilonda ebantwini nasezilwanyaneni kulo lonke elaseJiputa.” 10Baluthatha ke uthuthu eziko, baya kwakumkani, waza uMosis waluphosa phezulu ekho nokumkani. Lwaphephetheka ke, lwaza lwadala amathumba asuka abhidla aba zizilonda ebantwini nasezilwanyaneni. 11Ngenxa yamathumba abo abemilingo bona abazange babe nako ukumelana noMosis. Kaloku onke amaJiputa ayenamathumba. 12Kambe ke uNdikhoyo, njengoko wayetshilo kwangaphambili, wamenza waneenkani ukumkani, akavuma ukuphulaphula ooMosis noAron.
Isichotho
13*UNdikhoyo waphinda wathetha noMosis wathi: “Vuka kusasa ngomso, uye kukumkani, umxelele ukuba uNdikhoyo uThixo wamaHebhere uthi: ‘Khulula abantu bam, baye kundikhonza. 14Kwesi sihlandlo ndiya kukuhlabanisela ngezibetho, wena namaphakathi nabantu bakho, nitsho niqonde ukuba ehlabathini liphela akakho onjengam. 15Ukuba bendithanda ngesendisolule isandla sam, ndanitshayela ngesibetho, nanyamalala emhlabeni. 16Kodwa ke ndisaniyekile, kuba ndifuna ukunibonisa ubungangamsha bam, luze luthi nodumo lwam lunwenwe ehlabathini liphela. 17Njengokuba usazingca nje, ungavumi ukubakhulula abantu bam, 18uyabona ke, ngomso ngeli xesha ndiya kuthumela isitshu sesichoto esingazanga sabonwa nanini na ezimbalini zeJiputa. 19Ngoko ke thumela iye kuqokelelwa yonke imfuyo yakho, ivalelwe, khon' ukuze isinde. Kaloku ukufika kwaso yonke into ephandle, umntu kwanesilwanyana, iya kutshabalala.’ ” 20Ke kaloku loo maphakathi kakumkani ayenevuso ngenxa yomlomo kaNdikhoyo, athumela amakhoboka, yaqokelelwa imfuyo yawo, yavalelwa. 21Kambe ke lawo angazange alikhathalele ilizwi likaNdikhoyo awayeka emadlelweni amakhoboka kunye nemfuyo yawo.
22UNdikhoyo wathi kuMosis: “Phakamisela isandla sakho esibhakabhakeni, ukuze kuwe isichotho kulo lonke elaseJiputa, sibethe abantu, izilwanyana, nako konke okuntshula emhlabeni.” 23UMosis ke wayiphakamisa induku yakhe, waza uNdikhoyo wayivulela imibane, iindudumo, nesichotho, zatsho kwakubi kwelaseJiputa. 24Wasithulula isichotho, yalenyeza imibane, zatsho ngenzwinini eyayingazange yabonwa ezimbalini zeJiputa. 25Eso sichotho sageqa konke okwakuphandle, abantu, izilwanyana, izityalo, kunye nemithi, kulo lonke elaseJiputa. 26Kanti ke eGoshen, umhlaba wamaSirayeli, zange sifike isichotho.
27Ukumkani ke wathumela buphuthu-phuthu, wathi makubizwe uMosis noAron, waza wathi kubo: “Ngoku ndiyavuma, ndonile mna nabantu bam; uNdikhoyo yena akaphazamanga. 28Khawuncede umbongoze uNdikhoyo. Kwanele ngoku – ezi ndudumo nemibane zisongamele! Ndiza kunikhulula ndingaphozisanga maseko!”
29Waphendula uMosis wathi: “Nje ukuba ndiphume apha esixekweni, ndiya kuzolulela kuNdikhoyo izandla zam, sitsho sithothe isiphango, sinqamke isichotho, khon' ukuze uqonde ukuba lelikaNdikhoyo ihlabathi liphela. 30Kambe ke wena namaphakathi akho ndiyanibona ukuba anikamqondi uNdikhoyo uThixo.”
31Umqhaphu nerhasi zavuthuluka zatshabalala. Kaloku irhasi yona kwakuxa ihlanzayo; umqhaphu ke wona kuxa udubulayo. 32Kanti ke ingqolowa nehabile zange zonakale, kuba zazisephantsi.
33Akumka ke uMosis kwakumkani, ephumile nasesixekweni, waphakamela kuNdikhoyo ngomthandazo. Ngoko nangoko sathotha isiphango, yapheza nemvula. 34Uthe ke ukumkani akubona ukuba sithothile isiphango nemvula inqamkile, waphindela ukona oku; kuba waphinda waqaqadeka, wankaniza, yena ngokunjalo namaphakathi akhe. 35Ewe, wankaniza wala ukuwakhulula amaSirayeli ngokomlomo kaNdikhoyo kuMosis.
