TSHIMOLOHO 15

Modimo o etsa selekane le Aborame

1Hoba tsena di fete, lentswe la Morena la bua ho Aborame ponong, la re:

“Se tshabe, Aborame!

Ke thebe ya hao;

moputso wa hao

o tla ba moholo haholo.”

2Empa Aborame a re: “Oho, Morena Modimo, o tla nneang, ha e le moo ke tla shwa ke se na ngwana, mme mojalefa wa ntlo ya ka e le Eleesere wa Modamaseka?” 3Aborame a boela a re: “Bona, ha o a mpha ngwana, mme mohlanka ya tswaletsweng lapeng la ka e tla ba mojalefa wa ka.”

4Yaba Morena o bua ho yena, o re: “Tjhe, eo e ke ke ya eba mojalefa wa hao; mojalefa wa hao e tla ba mora ya tswang lethekeng la hao.” 5A mo nkela kantle mme a re ho yena: “Tadima lehodimong, mme o bale dinaledi, haeba o ka tseba ho di bala;” mme a re: “Ditloholo tsa hao di tla ba kaalo.”

6Aborame a dumela ho Morena, mme Morena a mmalla hoo e le ho loka.

7Yaba o re ho yena: “Ke nna Morena ya o ntshitseng Ure e naheng ya Bakalatiya, ho tla o nea naha ena hore e be ya hao.”

8Aborame a re: “Oho, Morena Modimo, ke tla tseba jwang hore ke tla e rua?”

9Yaba Morena o re ho yena: “Ntlisetse kgomo ya sethole e lemo di tharo, le podi e tshehadi e lemo di tharo, le pheleu e lemo di tharo, le leebana-kgorwana, le ledinyane la leeba.”

10A mo tlisetsa tsena kaofela, a di kgekgetha, a bea mokgekgetho ka mong o bapile le wa habo wona, empa dinonyana tsona a se ke a di kgekgetha. 11Manong a ubella dififi tsena, empa Aborame a a leleka.

12Ha letsatsi le eya madikelong, Aborame a fihlelwa ke sephume sa boroko, mme lefifi le tshabehang la mo aparela. 13Yaba Morena o re ho Aborame: “Tseba hore ditloholo tsa hao e tla ba bajaki naheng ya baditjhaba; di tla etswa makgoba teng, mme di tla hatellwa ka dilemo tse makgolo a mane. 14Empa ke tla ahlola setjhaba se tla di etsa makgoba, mme hamorao di tla tloha teng di ena le maruo a mangata. 15Ha e le wena o tla ikela ho bo-ntatao ka kgotso, mme o tla shwa hoba o phele halelele ka boiketlo. 16Moloko wa bone o tla kgutlela mona, hobane bokgopo ba Baamore ha bo eso phethehe.”

17Ha letsatsi le se le diketse, mme ho se ho fifetse haholo, ha hlaha sebopi se kubellang mosi, le kganare ya mollo; tsena tsa feta pakeng tsa mekgekgetho eo. 18Ka lona tsatsi leo Modimo a etsa selekane le Aborame, a re: “Ditloholo tsa hao ke tla di nea naha ena, ho tloha nokaneng ya Egepeta ho isa Nokeng e Kgolo, e leng ya Euferatese; 19le naha ya Bakene, le ya Bakenase, le ya Bakadamone, 20le ya Bahete, le ya Baperise, le ya Barefaime, 21le ya Baamore, le ya Bakanana, le ya Bagirigashe, le ya Bajebuse.”
