Exodus 4

1UMozisi wasephendula wathi: Kodwa khangela, kabayikungikholwa, kabayikulilalela ilizwi lami; ngoba bazakuthi: INkosi kayibonakalanga kuwe. 2INkosi yasisithi kuye: Kuyini lokho okusesandleni sakho? Wasesithi: Yintonga a. 3Yasisithi: Iphosele emhlabathini. Waseyiphosela emhlabathini, yasisiba yinyoka. UMozisi waseyibalekela. 4INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yelula isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila. Waselula isandla sakhe, wayithi xhaka; yasisiba yintonga esandleni sakhe, 5ukuze bakholwe b ukuthi ibonakele kuwe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise, uNkulunkulu kaAbrahama, uNkulunkulu kaIsaka, loNkulunkulu kaJakobe c.

6INkosi yasisithi njalo kuye: Ake ufake isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasesifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; esesikhuphile, khangela-ke, isandla sakhe sasesilobulephero njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyo d. 7Yasisithi: Buyisela isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasesibuyisela isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe; esesikhuphile esifubeni sakhe, khangela-ke, sasesiphenduke saba njengenyama yakhe e. 8Njalo kuzakuthi uba bengakukholwa, bengalaleli ilizwi lesibonakaliso sokuqala, bazakholwa ilizwi lesibonakaliso sokucina. 9Kuzakuthi-ke, uba bengakholwa lalezizibonakaliso ezimbili, bengalaleli ilizwi lakho, uzakukha okwamanzi omfula, uwathele emhlabathini owomileyo; njalo kuzakuthi amanzi ozawakha emfuleni azakuba ligazi f emhlabathini owomileyo.

10UMozisi wasesithi eNkosini: Uxolo, Nkosi yami, kangisiso sikhulumi ▼

▼ mandulo: Heb  izolo lakuthangi.
, ngitsho kusukela usukhulume lenceku yakho; ngoba kunzima emlonyeni wami njalo kunzima olimini i. 11INkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngubani owenzela umuntu umlomo? Kumbe ngubani owenza isimungulu, kumbe isacuthe, kumbe obonayo, kumbe isiphofu? Kakusimi yini iNkosi? 12Khathesi-ke hamba, njalo mina ngizakuba lomlomo wakho, ngikufundise lokho ozakukhuluma j. 13Kodwa wathi: Uxolo, Nkosi yami, akuthume ngesandla salowo ozamthuma k. 14Lwaseluvutha ulaka lweNkosi kuMozisi, yasisithi: Angithi uAroni umLevi ngumnewenu? Ngiyazi ukuthi angakhuluma kuhle. Njalo khangela-ke, uzaphuma ukukuhlangabeza; nxa ekubona, uzathaba enhliziyweni yakhe. 15Njalo uzakhuluma kuye l, ufake amazwi emlonyeni wakhe m; mina-ke ngizakuba lomlomo wakho lomlomo wakhe, ngizalifundisa lokho elizakwenza. 16Yena-ke uzakhuluma esizweni esikhundleni sakho, kuzakuthi abe ngumlomo kuwe, wena ube njengoNkulunkulu kuye n. 17Njalo uzathatha lintonga esandleni sakho, ozakwenza izibonakaliso ngayo o.

UMozisi ubuyela eGibhithe

18UMozisi wasehamba wabuyela kuJetro uyisezala, wathi kuye: Ake ungiyekele ngihambe, ngibuyele kubafowethu abaseGibhithe, ngibone ukuthi basaphila yini. UJetro wasesithi kuMozisi: Hamba ngokuthula. 19INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi eMidiyani: Hamba, ubuyele eGibhithe; ngoba wonke amadoda asafa, ayedinga umphefumulo wakho p. 20UMozisi wasethatha umkakhe lamadodana akhe, wabakhwelisa phezu kukababhemi, wabuyela elizweni leGibhithe. UMozisi wasethatha intonga kaNkulunkulu esandleni sakhe q. 21INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Ekuhambeni kwakho ubuyela eGibhithe, bona ukuthi, zonke izimangaliso r engizibeke esandleni sakho, uzenze phambi kukaFaro. Kodwa ngizakwenza inhliziyo yakhe ibe lukhuni s ukuze angasiyekeli isizwe sihambe. 22Njalo uzakuthi kuFaro: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Indodana yami t, izibulo lami u, nguIsrayeli; 23njalo sengithe kuwe: Yekela indodana yami ihambe ukuthi ingikhonze; kodwa walile ukuyiyekela ihambe, khangela, ngizabulala indodana yakho, izibulo lakho v.

24Kwasekusithi esendleleni, endlini yezihambi w, iNkosi yahlangana laye x, yadinga ukumbulala. 25UZipora wasethatha insengetshe, waquma ijwabu laphambili lendodana yakhe, walithintisa inyawo zakhe wathi: Isibili ungumyeni wegazi kimi. 26Yasimyekela y. Ngalesosikhathi wathi: Umyeni wegazi, ngenxa yokusoka.

27INkosi yasisithi kuAroni: Hamba, uyehlangabeza uMozisi enkangala z. Wahamba-ke, wahlangana laye entabeni kaNkulunkulu aa, wamanga. 28UMozisi wasemtshela uAroni ab wonke amazwi eNkosi eyayimthumile, lazo zonke izibonakaliso eyayimlaye zona.

29OMozisi loAroni basebehamba, babuthanisa bonke abadala babantwana bakoIsrayeli ac. 30UAroni wasekhuluma amazwi wonke iNkosi eyayiwakhulume kuMozisi ad, wenza izibonakaliso phambi kwamehlo abantu. 31Abantu basebekholwa ae; bezwa ukuthi iNkosi ihambele af abantwana bakoIsrayeli, lokuthi ibonile inhlupheko yabo ag, bakhothama, bakhonza ah.
