Ekesode 5:1-23
5 Pashishe Mose ne Alona bakabuela kudi Palô, kumuambilabu ne: “Yehowa Nzambi wa bena Isalele udi wamba ne: ‘Lekela bantu banyi baye bua kungenzela tshibilu mu tshipela.’”
2 Kadi Palô wakamba ne: “Yehowa nnganyi+ pende bua meme kutumikila dîyi diende ne kulekela bena Isalele?+ Tshiena mumanye Yehowa nansha, ne kabidi tshiakulekela bena Isalele to.”+
3 Kadi bakamba ne: “Nzambi wa bena Ebelu mmuyukile netu. Tudi basue kuenza koku luendu lua matuku asatu mu tshipela bua kulambula Yehowa Nzambi wetu milambu;+ tshianana neatutue masama anyi neatushipe ne muele wa mvita.”
4 Mukalenge wa Ejipitu wakabandamuna ne: “Mose ne Alona, bua tshinyi nudi numbusha bantu ku midimu yabu? Pinganayi ku midimu yenu mikole!”*+
5 Palô wakamba kabidi ne: “Monayi bungi bua bantu badi mu buloba ebu, ne nuenu nudi basue kubalekesha midimu yabu mikole.”
6 Anu diodi dituku adi, Palô wakatumina bafidi ba midimu mikole ne batangidi babu ba midimu dîyi ne:
7 “Kanupeshi kabidi bantu aba bisunsukile bia tukolakola bua kututa madioto to.+ Balekelayi baye kudianguila bisunsukile bia tukolakola.
8 Kadi nudi ne bua kutungunuka ne kubakosela bungi bumue bua madioto anu muvuabu benza kumpala. Kanubapuekeshidibu to, bualu bakadi ne kalengu.* Ke bualu kayi badi badilakana ne: ‘Tudi basue kuya, tudi basue kulambula Nzambi wetu milambu!’
9 Benzejayi mudimu mukole kupita kumpala, ne ikalayi nubenzeja mudimu wa bungi bua kabateleji mashimi to.”
10 Nunku bafidi ba midimu mikole+ ne batangidi babu ba midimu bakapatuka, bobu kuambila bantu ne: “Palô mmuambe ne: ‘Tshiakunupesha kabidi bisunsukile bia tukolakola to.
11 Ndayi nudianguile bisunsukile bia tukolakola muaba wonso unudi mua kubipeta, kadi kabakunukepeshila mudimu wenu nansha kakese.’”
12 Nunku bantu bakatangalaka mu buloba bujima bua Ejipitu bua kuangula tukolakola bua kutusunsulula.
13 Bafidi ba midimu mikole bakatungunuka ne kubambila ne: “Muntu ne muntu udi ne bua kujikija mudimu wende dituku dionso, anu bu muvuabi pavuabu banupesha bisunsukile bia tukolakola.”
14 Pashishe bafidi ba midimu mikole ba Palô bakakuma+ batangidi ba midimu ba bena Isalele bavua bobu aba bateke ku mutu kuabu. Bakabebeja ne: “Bua tshinyi kanuena bakumbaje bungi bua madioto bunuvua nuenza konso eku? Bivua bienzeke nanku malaba ne lelu kabidi.”
15 Nunku batangidi ba midimu ba bena Isalele bakaya kudi Palô, badilakana bamba ne: “Bua tshinyi udi wenzela bena mudimu bebe malu mushindu eu?
16 Ki mbapeshe bena mudimu bebe bisunsukile bia tukolakola to, kadi badi batuambila ne: ‘Tutayi madioto!’ Badi bakuma bena mudimu bebe, pabi bantu bebe ke badi mu tshilema.”
17 Kadi wakamba ne: “Nukadi ne kalengu,* nukadi ne kalengu!*+ Ke bualu kayi nudi nuamba ne: ‘Tudi basue kuya, tudi basue kulambula Yehowa milambu.’+
18 Mpindieu ndayi, pinganayi ku mudimu! Kabakunupesha bisunsukile bia tukolakola to, kadi nudi anu ne bua kututa madioto bungi buvuabu banukosele.”
19 Nunku batangidi ba midimu ba bena Isalele bakamona ne: bavua mu lutatu lukole bualu bavua babatumine dîyi ne: “Kanuena ne bua kukepesha bungi bua madioto buvuabu banukosele ku dituku nansha kakese.”
20 Pashishe bakasambakena ne Mose ne Alona bavua bimane muaba au bua kumonangana nabu pavuabu bapatuka kua Palô.
21 Bakabambila diakamue ne: “Yehowa anutangile ne anulumbuluishe, bualu nudi benze bua Palô ne bena mudimu bende batupetule,* ne nudi bateke muele wa mvita mu tshianza tshiabu bua kutushipa.”+
22 Ke Mose kukudimuka kudi Yehowa, kuambaye ne: “Yehowa, udi mukengeshe bantu aba bua tshinyi? Bua tshinyi udi muntume?
23 Kubangila anu dîba dimvua mubuele kudi Palô bua kuakula mu dîna diebe,+ yeye mmuenzele bantu aba malu mabi matambe,+ ne wewe kuena musungile bantu bebe nansha kakese.”+
