Eksodusi 4
1UMozisi wasephendula wathi: Kodwa khangela, kabayikukholwa kimi, kabayikulilalela ilizwi lami, ngoba bazakuthi: I Nkosi kayibonakalanga kuwe.
2INkosi yasisithi kuye: Kuyini lokhu okusesandleni sakho? Wathi: “Umgwaqo.”
3Wathi: “Yiphonse phansi.” Wayiphonsa phansi, yaba yinyoka; uMose wayibalekela.
4INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila. Waselula isandla sakhe, wayithatha, yaba ludondolo esandleni sakhe.
5Ukuze bakholwe ukuthi uJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyise, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe, ubonakele kuwe.
6INkosi yasisithi kuye: Faka isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; wasikhipha, bheka, isandla sakhe sasinochoko njengeqhwa.
7Wathi: “Buyisela isandla sakho esifubeni sakho.” Waphinda wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; wayiklebhula esifubeni sakhe, bheka, yaphenduka yaba njengenye inyama yakhe.
8Futhi kuyokwenzeka ukuthi uma bengakukholwa, noma bengalaleli izwi lesibonakaliso sokuqala, bayokholwa yizwi lesibonakaliso sokugcina.
9Uma nabo bengakholwa yilezi zibonakaliso ezimbili, bengalilaleli izwi lakho, uyakuthabatha amanzi omfula, uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo namanzi owamukileyo; lomfula uyakuba yigazi emhlabathini owomileyo.
10UMose wayesethi kuJehova: “Awu, Nkosi yami, angiyena umuntu okhulumayo, nangaphambili, nasemihleni yakho, kusukela lapho ukhuluma encekwini yakho; kodwa mina nginamazwi aphuzayo nolimi olunensayo.
11INkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngubani owenza umlomo womuntu? Ngubani owenza isimungulu noma isithulu noma obonayo noma oyimpumputhe? Anginayo iNkosi na?
12Hamba manje, mina ngizakuba lomlomo wakho, ngikufundise lokho ozakutsho.
13Wathi: “Nkosi yami, thuma ngesandla salowo omthumayo.”
14Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela uMose, wathi: “Akasiye umfowenu u-Aroni umLevi na? Ngiyazi ukuthi uyakwazi ukukhuluma kahle. Futhi bheka, uyeza ukukuhlangabeza, futhi lapho ekubona, uyojabula enhliziyweni yakhe.
15Kumelwe ukhulume naye ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe; futhi ngizoba nomlomo wakho nomlomo wakhe futhi nginifundise okufanele nikwenze.
16Yena uyakuba ngumkhulumeli wakho kubantu, abe, yebo, abe ngawe esikhundleni somlomo, wena ube ngowakhe esikhundleni sikaNkulunkulu;
17Kumelwe uthathe lolu dondolo esandleni sakho ozokwenza ngalo izibonakaliso.
18Wayesehamba uMose, wabuyela kuJetiro umukhwe wakhe, wathi kuye: “Ngivumele ngibuyele kubafowethu abaseGibhithe, ngibone ukuthi basaphila yini. UJetro wathi kuMose: “Hamba ngokuthula.”
19INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi kwaMidiyani: Hamba, ubuyele eGibhithe, ngoba bonke abantu ababedinga impilo yakho bafile.
20UMose wayesethatha umkakhe namadodana akhe, wabakhwelisa embongolweni, wabuyela ezweni laseGibithe; uMose waphatha intonga kaNkulunkulu esandleni sakhe.
21UJehova wathi kuMose: “Uma ubuyela eGibithe, qiniseka ukuthi uyazenza phambi kukaFaro zonke lezo zibonakaliso engizinikele esandleni sakho; kodwa ngizayenza lukhuni inhliziyo yakhe, ukuze angabayekeli abantu bahambe.
22Uzakuthi kuFaro: Itsho njalo iNkosi: UIsrayeli uyindodana yami, izibulo lami;
23Futhi ngithi kuwe: Yiyeke indodana yami ihambe, ingikhonze; uma wenqaba ukumyeka, bheka, ngiyakubulala indodana yakho, izibulo lakho.
24Kwathi edlula, iNkosi yamhlangabeza, izama ukumbulala.
25USipora wayesethatha itshe elibukhali, wanquma ijwabu lendodana yakhe, waliphonsa ngasezinyaweni zakhe, wathi: “Bheka, ungumuntu wegazi kimi.
26Wayesemdedela; wayesethi: “Ungumuntu wegazi ngenxa yokusoka.”
27UJehova wathi ku-Aroni: “Hamba uyohlangabeza uMose ehlane. Wasuka wamhlangabeza entabeni kaNkulunkulu, wamanga.
28UMose wayesemtshela u-Aroni onke amazwi kaJehova amthumileyo, nezibonakaliso zonke eyamyala ngazo.
29OMose no-Aroni bahamba, babizela ndawonye onke amalunga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.
30U-Aroni wakhuluma onke amazwi uJehova awakhuluma kuMose, wazenza izibonakaliso phambi kwamehlo abantu.
31Abantu bakholwa, sebezwile ukuthi uJehova ubahambele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nokuthi ulubonile usizi lwabo, bakhothama, bakhuleka.
