1Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi, 2Thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli ukuba bajike, bamise iintente ngasePihagiroti, phakathi kweMigdoli nolwandle, malunga neBhahali-tsefon; ke ngoko, inkampu ngaselwandle. 3Uya kuthi uFaro ngoonyana bakaSirayeli, Balele emhlabeni, intlango ibagubungela. 4Ke mna ndiya kuyenza lukhuni intliziyo kaFaro, abalandele; ndizukiseke phambi koFaro, naphambi komkhosi wakhe wonke; ukuze azi amaYiputa ukuba ndinguYehova. Kwaye benjenjalo. 5Waxelelwa ukumkani waseYiputa ukuba abantu babalekile, yaza intliziyo kaFaro neyabakhonzi bakhe yabavukela abantu, isithi: “Siyenzele ntoni na le nto, sanyula amaSirayeli ukuba asikhonze? 6Walungisa inqwelo yakhe, wahamba nabantu bakhe. 7Wathabatha amakhulu amathandathu eenqwelo zokulwa ezikhethiweyo, neenqwelo zonke zokulwa zaseYiputa, nabathetheli bazo kuzo zonke. 8uYehova wayenza lukhuni intliziyo kaFaro ukumkani waseYiputa, ukuze abasikelele oonyana bakaSirayeli, baphuma oonyana bakaSirayeli ngesandla esiphakamileyo. 9AmaYiputa abasukela, enamahashe onke eenqwelo zokulwa zikaFaro, nakhwelwayo akhe, nempi yakhe, abafumana bemise iintente ngaselwandle, ngasePi-hagiroti, phambi koBhahali. 10Wasondela uFaro, bawaphakamisa amehlo abo oonyana bakaSirayeli, bawabona amaYiputa emva kwabo. Boyika kunene, babiza oonyana bakaSirayeli kuYehova. 11Bathi kuMoses, kungokuba bekungekho mangcwaba na eYiputa, le nto usikhuphileyo ukuba sifele entlango apha? Yini na ukuba usenze le nto, usikhuphe eYiputa? 12Asililo na elo ilizwi ebesilithetha kuwe eYiputa, sisithi, Masime siwakhonze amaYiputa? Kuba kube kusilungele kanye ukuba sikhonze amaYiputa, kunokuba sifele entlango apha. 13Wathi uMoses ebantwini, Musani ukoyika; lindani nje, nilubone usindiso aya kunenzela lona uYehova namhla; kuba amaYiputa lawo niwabonileyo namhlanje, anisayi kuphinda niwabone naphakade. 14uYehova uya kunilwela, ke nina nimele nithi cwaka. 15Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Uyandibiza na? Thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli ukuba badlule. 16Ke wena, phakamisa intonga yakho, wolule isandla sakho phezu kolwandle, ulwahlule, baluwele ulwandle oonyana bakaSirayeli kowomileyo. 17Mna ke, yabona, ndiya kuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zamaYiputa, awalandele; Ndiya kumzukisa uFaro, nempi yakhe yonke, neenqwelo zakhe zokulwa, nabamahashe bakhe; 18azi amaYiputa ukuba ndinguYehova, ekumzukiseni kwam uFaro, neenqwelo zakhe zokulwa, nabakhweli bakhe; 19Ingelosi kaTHIXO oyinyaniso, eyayikhokela umkhosi wamaSirayeli, yemka yawalandela; lesuka ilifu phambi kwabo, lema emva kwabo. 20Wangena phakathi kwempi yamaYiputa, neyamaSirayeli; laba lilifu elimnyama kubo, libakhanyisela ebusuku, ukuba kungabikho uzayo komnye ubusuku bonke. 21Wasolula uMoses isandla sakhe phezu kolwandle; yaye uYehova walwenza lwaduduza ulwandle bonke obo busuku ngomoya onamandla wasempuma waza walushukumisa ulwandle, aza ahluka amanzi. 22Bahamba oonyana bakaSirayeli emhlabeni owomileyo, phakathi elwandle; aza amanzi aba ludonga ngasekunene nangasekhohlo kubo. 23Abasukela amaYiputa, abalandela esazulwini solwandle, enamahashe onke kaFaro, neenqwelo zakhe zokulwa, nabamahashe bakhe; 24Kwathi ngengomso uYehova wesuka waya emkhosini womlilo nelifu phezu komkhosi wamaYiputa, woyiswa umkhosi wamaYiputa. 25Bayikhulula imilenze yeenqwelo zabo zokulwa kwabakhweli bawo, amaYiputa, athi, Masibaleke phambi kwamaSirayeli; ngokuba uYehova uyawalwela, esilwa namaYiputa. 26Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Yolula isandla sakho phezu kolwandle, amanzi abuyele phezu kwamaYiputa, naphezu kweenqwelo zawo zokulwa, naphezu kwabakhweli bawo; 27uMoses wasolula isandla sakhe phezu kolwandle, lwabuya ulwandle ngamandla alo xa kuthi qheke ukusa; asaba kuyo amaYiputa; yaye uYehova wawantywilisela amaYiputa phakathi elwandle. 28Abuya amanzi, azigubungela iingqwelo zokulwa, nabamahashe, nempi yonke kaFaro eyayingene emva kwawo elwandle; akwasala namnye kubo. 29Ke bona oonyana bakaSirayeli bahamba emhlabeni owomileyo phakathi elwandle; aba ludonga lwamanzi kuwo ngasekunene nangasekhohlo. 30uYehova wawahlangula ke amaSirayeli ngaloo mini esandleni samaYiputa; oonyana bakaSirayeli bawabona amaYiputa efile elunxwemeni lolwandle. 31Bawubona oonyana bakaSirayeli umsebenzi omkhulu uYehova awayewenze kumaYiputa, bamoyika abantu uYehova, bakholwa nguYehova noMoses umkhonzi wakhe.
