UMoses unqena ukuthunywa; ukumiselwa kuka-Aron
1Waphendula uMoses wathi, Ùyabona, abayi kukholwa ndim, abayi kuliphulaphula izwi lam; kuba baya kuthi, UYehova akabonakalanga kuwe. 2Wathi uYehova kuye, Yintoni na loo nto isesandleni sakho? Wathi, Yintonga. 3Wathi, Yiphose emhlabeni. Wayiphosa emhlabeni, yasuka yaba yinyoka; wayibaleka uMoses. 4Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Solule isandla sakho, uyibambe ngomsila; (wasolula isandla sakhe, wayibamba, yasuka yaba yintonga esandleni sakhe); 5ukuze bakholwe ukuba uYehova, uThixo wooyise, uThixo ka-Abraham, uThixo kaIsake, uThixo kaYakobi, ubonakele kuwe.
6Waphinda uYehova wathi kuye, Khawusifake isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasifaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe. Akusirhola isandla sakhe, naso sineqhenqa, simhlophe njengekhephu. 7Wathi, Sibuyisele isandla sakho esifubeni sakho. Wasibuyisela isandla sakhe esifubeni; wasirhola esifubeni sakhe, naso sibuye saba njengenyama yakhe. 8Kothi, ukuba abathanga bakholwe nguwe, àbaliphulaphula izwi lowokuqala umqondiso, bakholwe lilizwi lomqondiso wamva. 9Kothi, ukuba abathanga bakholwe nayile miqondiso mibini, àbaliphulaphula nezwi lakho, uthabathe amanzi omlambo, uwaphalazele emhlabeni owomileyo; osuka amanzi owathabathileyo emlanjeni abe ligazi emhlabeni owomileyo.
10Wathi uMoses kuYehova, Camagu, Nkosi yam! Àndindoda imazwi maninzi nanini na, oko wathethayo kumkhonzi wakho lo; kuba ndingokuthetha kunzima, ndikwanzima nolwimi. 11Wathi uYehova kuye, Ngubani na obeké umlomo emntwini? Ngubani na owenzé isidenge, nesithulu, nobonayo, nemfama? Asindim na, mna Yehova? 12Ngoko ke hamba, ndoba nomlomo wakho mna, ndikubonise into oya kuyithetha.
13Wathi yena, Camagu, Nkosi yam! Khawuthume ngesandla salowo womthuma. 14Wavutha umsindo kaYehova kuMoses, wathi, Akanguye na umkhuluwa wakho uAron umLevi? Ndiyazi ukuba yena uyakwazi ukuthetha. Kananjalo nanko yena ephuma eza kukukhawulela; wókubona, avuye entliziyweni yakhe. 15Wòthetha kuye, ubeke amazwi emlonyeni wakhe; mna ndoba nomlomo wakho nomlomo wakhe, ndinibonise into eniya kuyenza. 16Yena wokuthethela ebantwini, athi yena abe ngumlomo kuwe, uthi wena ube nguthixo kuye. 17Ke le ntonga yiphathe ngesandla sakho; ùya kwenza ngayo imiqondiso leyo.
UMoses ubuyela eYiputa
18Wahamba ke uMoses, wabuyela kuYitro, uyise womkakhe, wathi kuye, Makhe ndihambe, ndibuyele kubazalwana bam abaseYiputa, ndibone ukuba basahleli na. Wathi uYitro kuMoses, Hamba ngoxolo. 19UYehova wathi kuMoses kwaMidiyan, Hamba ubuyele eYiputa; kuba afile onke amadoda abezonda ubomi bakho. 20UMoses wathabatha umkakhe noonyana bakhe, wabakhwelisa e-esileni, wabuyela ezweni laseYiputa; wayiphatha uMoses intonga kaThixo ngesandla sakhe.
21Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Ekuhambeni kwakho ubuyela eYiputa, uze ukhangele ukuba uzenze phambi koFaro zonke izimanga, endizibeke esandleni sakho. Ke mna ndiya kuyenza lukhuni intliziyo yakhe, angabandululi abantu. 22Wòthi kuFaro, Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Unyana wam wamazibulo nguSirayeli; 23ndìthi kuwe, Mndulule unyana wam lowo, andikhonze; walilé nje ukumndulula, uyabona, ndombulala unyana wakho, amazibulo akho.
24Kwathi, endleleni apho balalisa khona, uYehova wamhlangabeza, wafuna ukumbulala. 25UTsipora wathabatha intshengece, wanqumla inyama yokwalùswa yonyana wakhe, wayiphosa ezinyaweni zakhe, wathi, Ungumyeni wamagazi kum. 26Wamyeka ke. Watsho oko ukuthi, Ungumyeni wamagazi, ngenxa yolwaluko.
27Wathi uYehova kuAron, Hamba uye kukhawulela uMoses entlango. Waya ke, wamhlangabeza entabeni kaThixo, wamanga. 28UMoses wamxelela uAron onke amazwi kaYehova abemthume wona, nemiqondiso yonke abemwisele umthetho ngayo.
29Wahamba uMoses noAron, bawahlanganisa onke amadoda amakhulu oonyana bakaSirayeli. 30Wawathetha uAron onke amazwi abewathethile uYehova kuMoses, wayenza nemiqondiso phambi kwabantu. 31Bakholwa abantu, beva ukuba uYehova ubavelele oonyana bakaSirayeli wazibona iintsizi zabo, bathoba baqubuda.
