iEksodus 4:1-17

Waphendula uMoses wathi, Abakholwa ndim, abaliphulaphula izwi lam; kuba bebesithi, uYehova akazibonakalisi kuni. Wathi uYehova kuye, Yintoni na loo nto isesandleni sakho? Wathi: Indlela. Wathi, Zikhahleleni phantsi. Wayiphosa phantsi, yaba yinyoka; wabaleka uMoses. Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Yolula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila; Wasolula isandla sakhe, wayithabatha, yaba yintonga esandleni sakhe; ukuze bakholwe ukuba uYehova, uThixo wooyise, uThixo ka-Abraham, uThixo kaIsake, uThixo kaYakobi, ubonakele kuwe. Waza uYehova wathi kuye, Faka isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni, wathi akusikhupha, wabona ukuba isandla sakhe simhlophe njengekhephu. Wathi, Sibuyisele isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Waphinda wabeka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; Wayikrazula isifuba sayo, yasuka yaba njengenyama yayo. Kothi, ukuba abakholwa kuni, nokuba bathe baliva ilizwi lomqondiso wokuqala, bakholwe lilizwi lomqondiso wokugqibela. Ukuba abathanga bakholwe yile miqondiso yomibini, abaliphulaphula nelizwi lakho, wothabatha amanzi emlanjeni, uwaphalazele emhlabeni owomileyo, nasemanzini owathimbileyo; umlambo uya kujika ube ligazi emhlabeni owomileyo. Wathi uMoses kuYehova, Camagu, Nkosi yam! Ke mna ndilulwimi olugudileyo, ndilulwimi olugudileyo. Wathi uYehova kuye, Ngubani na obeke umlomo emntwini? Ngubani na osisimumu okanye osisithulu okanye obonayo okanye oyimfama? Andinayo na iNkosi? Hamba ngoku, ndoba nomlomo wakho mna, ndikubonise into oya kuyithetha. Wathi, Nkosi, thumela ngesandla salowo uya kumthuma. Wavutha umsindo kaYehova kuMoses, wathi, Akanguye na umkhuluwa wakho uAron umLevi? Ndiyazi ukuba uyakwazi ukuthetha kakuhle. Uyabona, uyeza kukukhawulela, kwaye xa ubona, uya kuvuya entliziyweni yakhe. Thetha naye, ubeke amazwi emlonyeni wakhe; mna ndoba nomlomo wakho nomlomo wakhe, ndinibonise into eniya kuyenza. Yena uya kuba ngummeli wakho ebantwini, abe ngummeli wakho endaweni yomlomo, wena ube ngowakhe esikhundleni sikaThixo. Thabatha le ntonga esandleni sakho, uya kwenza ngayo imiqondiso
