U-Eksodusi 4:1-17 IsiZulu 2020 (ZUL20)
UMose waphendula wathi: “Kepha bheka, ngeke bangikholwe noma bangilalele, bayakuthi: ‘USimakade akabonakalanga kuwe.’ ” USimakade wathi kuye: “Yini le esesandleni sakho na?” Wathi: “Yinduku.” Wayesethi: “Yiphonse emhlabathini.” Wayiphonsa emhlabathini, yaphenduka inyoka; uMose wayibalekela. Kepha uSimakade wathi kuMose: “Yelula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila.” Waselula isandla sakhe, wayibamba; yaphenduka induku esandleni sakhe. “Bazokholwa-ke ukuthi uSimakade, uNkulunkulu wokhokho benu, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka noNkulunkulu kaJakobe ubonakele kuwe.” USimakade wabuye wathi kuye: “Faka isandla esifubeni sakho.” Wasifaka. Lapho esikhipha, mameshane, isandla sakhe sabe sesinochoko, simhlophe njengeqhwa. UNkulunkulu wathi kuye: “Siphindisele esifubeni isandla sakho.” Wasiphindisela esifubeni sakhe. Kuthe lapho esesikhipha, habe, sesibuyele esimweni saso, sesifana nesikhumba sakhe. “Uma bengakukholwa, noma bengasishayi mkhuba isibonakaliso sakho sokuqala, bayosikholwa esilandelayo. Uma bengazikholwa zombili izibonakaliso noma bengakulaleli okushoyo, uyokukha amanzi eNayili, uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo, lawo manzi owakhe emfuleni ayophenduka igazi emhlabathini owomileyo.” UMose wathi kuSimakade: “Nkosi, ngixolele, angikaze ngibe ngumuntu oyiciko lokukhuluma, kusukela kuqala kuze kube manje njengoba ukhuluma nenceku yakho, ngokuba nginamalimi, ulimi lwami lulukhuni.” USimakade wathi kuye: “Ngubani owenza umlomo womuntu na? Ngubani owenza isimungulu nesithulu, obonayo noyimpumputhe na? AkusiMina Simakade na? Ngalokho-ke hamba, ngizokuba semlonyeni wakho, ngikufundise ozokusho.” Kepha wathi: “Nkosi, ngixolele, ngiyakucela ukuba uthumele omunye.” Intukuthelo kaSimakade yamvuthela uMose, wathi: “Akekho yini umfowenu u-Aroni ongumLevi na? Ngiyazi ukuthi uliciko lokukhuluma; bheka, uyeza uzokuhlangabeza, lapho ekubona uyothokoza enhliziyweni yakhe. Uyokhuluma naye, umtshele amazwi azowakhuluma ngomlomo wakhe, ngizokuba semlonyeni wakho nakowakhe, nginifundise enizokwenza. Nguye ozokukhulumela kubantu; uyakuba ngumlomo wakho, wena ufane nonkulunkulu kuye. Phatha le nduku ngesandla sakho, wenze ngayo izibonakaliso.”
U-Eksodusi 4:1-17 IBHAYIBHELI ELINGCWELE (ZUL59)
UMose waphendula wathi: “Kepha bheka, abayikukholwa yimi, bangalaleli izwi lami, ngokuba bayakusho ukuthi: ‘UJehova akabonakalanga kuwe.’ ” Wayesethi kuye uJehova: “Kuyini lokhu okusesandleni sakho na?” Wathi: “Yinduku.” Khona wathi: “Yiphonse phansi.” Wayeseyiphonsa phansi. Yaphenduka inyoka; uMose wayibalekela. Wayesethi uJehova kuMose: “Yelula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila.” Wayeselula isandla sakhe, wayibamba; yaphenduka induku esandleni sakhe – ukuba bakholwe ukuthi uJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyise, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe, ubonakele kuwe. UJehova wathi futhi kuye: “Faka isandla sakho esifubeni sakho.” Wayesefaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; lapho esesikhipha, bheka, isandla sakhe sasinochoko, sinjengeqhwa. Wayesethi kuye: “Buyisela isandla sakho esifubeni sakho.” Wayesesibuyisela isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; kuthe esikhipha esifubeni sakhe, bheka, sase siphendukile, sinjengenyama yakhe. “Kuyakuthi uma bengayikukholwa nguwe, bengalaleli izwi lesibonakaliso sokuqala, bayakukholwa yizwi lesibonakaliso sasemuva. Kuzakuthi-ke uma bengayikukholwa nayilezi zibonakaliso ezimbili, bengalaleli izwi lakho, uyakukha amanzi omfula, uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo; amanzi owakha emfuleni ayakuphenduka igazi emhlabathini owomileyo.” UMose wayesethi kuJehova: “Nkosi, angizange ngibe ngumuntu oyiqaphuqaphu, nakuqala namanje lapho usukhulumile encekwini yakho, ngokuba umlomo wami unzima, unamalimi.” UJehova wayesethi kuye: “Ngubani owenzile umlomo womuntu na? Ngubani owenza isimungulu, nesithulu, nobonayo, nempumputhe na? Akusimina, uJehova, na? Ngalokho hamba; ngizakuba nomlomo wakho, ngikufundise lokho ozakukukhuluma.” Kepha wathi: “O Nkosi, ake uthume ngesandla salowo ozakumthuma.” Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela uMose; wathi: “Akakho umfowenu u-Aroni, umLevi, na? Ngiyazi ukuthi ukhuluma kahle yena. Futhi bheka, uyaphuma ukukuhlangabeza; nalapho ekubona, uyakuthokoza enhliziyweni yakhe. Uyakukhuluma kuye, ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe; ngizakuba nomlomo wakho nomlomo wakhe, nginifundise lokho eniyakukwenza. Uyakukukhulumela kubantu, abe ngumlomo kuwe, wena ube njengoNkulunkulu kuye. Uzakuphatha le nduku ngesandla sakho, oyakwenza izibonakaliso ngayo.”
U-Eksodusi 4:1-17 Contemporary Zulu Bible 2024 (CZB24)
UMozisi wasephendula wathi: Kodwa khangela, kabayikukholwa kimi, kabayikulilalela ilizwi lami, ngoba bazakuthi: I Nkosi kayibonakalanga kuwe. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Kuyini lokhu okusesandleni sakho? Wathi: “Umgwaqo.” Wathi: “Yiphonse phansi.” Wayiphonsa phansi, yaba yinyoka; uMose wayibalekela. INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila. Waselula isandla sakhe, wayithatha, yaba ludondolo esandleni sakhe. Ukuze bakholwe ukuthi uJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyise, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe, ubonakele kuwe. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Faka isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; wasikhipha, bheka, isandla sakhe sasinochoko njengeqhwa. Wathi: “Buyisela isandla sakho esifubeni sakho.” Waphinda wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; wayiklebhula esifubeni sakhe, bheka, yaphenduka yaba njengenye inyama yakhe. Futhi kuyokwenzeka ukuthi uma bengakukholwa, noma bengalaleli izwi lesibonakaliso sokuqala, bayokholwa yizwi lesibonakaliso sokugcina. Uma nabo bengakholwa yilezi zibonakaliso ezimbili, bengalilaleli izwi lakho, uyakuthabatha amanzi omfula, uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo namanzi owamukileyo; lomfula uyakuba yigazi emhlabathini owomileyo. UMose wayesethi kuJehova: “Awu, Nkosi yami, angiyena umuntu okhulumayo, nangaphambili, nasemihleni yakho, kusukela lapho ukhuluma encekwini yakho; kodwa mina nginamazwi aphuzayo nolimi olunensayo. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngubani owenza umlomo womuntu? Ngubani owenza isimungulu noma isithulu noma obonayo noma oyimpumputhe? Anginayo iNkosi na? Hamba manje, mina ngizakuba lomlomo wakho, ngikufundise lokho ozakutsho. Wathi: “Nkosi yami, thuma ngesandla salowo omthumayo.” Intukuthelo 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. Kumelwe ukhulume naye ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe; futhi ngizoba nomlomo wakho nomlomo wakhe futhi nginifundise okufanele nikwenze. Yena uyakuba ngumkhulumeli wakho kubantu, abe, yebo, abe ngawe esikhundleni somlomo, wena ube ngowakhe esikhundleni sikaNkulunkulu; Kumelwe uthathe lolu dondolo esandleni sakho ozokwenza ngalo izibonakaliso.
