Kuva 7:1-25
7 Nuko Yehova abwira Mose ati: “Dore nakugize nk’Imana imbere ya Farawo kandi Aroni umuvandimwe wawe azakubera umuhanuzi.+
2 Naho wowe uzavuge ibyo nzagutegeka byose. Aroni umuvandimwe wawe ni we uzajya abibwira Farawo kandi Farawo agomba kureka Abisirayeli bakagenda, bakava mu gihugu cye.
3 Nanjye nzareka Farawo akomeze kwinangira,*+ kandi nzakora ibimenyetso n’ibitangaza byinshi mu gihugu cya Egiputa.+
4 Farawo ntazabumvira ariko nzakoresha imbaraga zanjye* ndwanye igihugu cya Egiputa nkureyo abantu banjye benshi, ni ukuvuga Abisirayeli. Nzabakurayo mbanje guhana+ cyane igihugu cya Egiputa.
5 Abanyegiputa bazamenya rwose ko ndi Yehova+ igihe nzakoresha imbaraga zanjye nkarwanya Egiputa kandi nzakura Abisirayeli hagati yabo.”
6 Nuko Mose na Aroni baragenda babigenza batyo, bakora ibyo Yehova yari yabategetse byose.
7 Igihe Mose na Aroni bajyaga kuvugana na Farawo,+ Mose yari afite imyaka 80, naho Aroni afite 83.
8 Yehova abwira Mose na Aroni ati:
9 “Farawo naramuka ababwiye ati: ‘mukore igitangaza turebe,’ uzabwire Aroni uti: ‘fata inkoni yawe uyijugunye imbere ya Farawo.’ Izahita ihinduka inzoka nini.”+
10 Nuko Mose na Aroni bajya kwa Farawo, babigenza neza neza nk’uko Yehova yari yabategetse. Aroni ajugunya inkoni ye imbere ya Farawo n’abagaragu be maze ihinduka inzoka nini.
11 Icyakora Farawo na we ahamagara abanyabwenge n’abapfumu maze abatambyi bo muri Egiputa+ bakora iby’ubumaji na bo bakora nk’ibyo, babikoresheje ubumaji bwabo.+
12 Buri wese ajugunya inkoni ye hasi maze zihinduka inzoka nini ariko inzoka ya Aroni imira inzoka zabo.*
13 Nyamara nk’uko Yehova yari yarabivuze, Farawo yanga kumva*+ kandi ntiyabumvira.
14 Yehova abwira Mose ati: “Farawo yanze kumva+ kandi yanze kureka abantu banjye ngo bagende.
15 Mu gitondo usange Farawo. Ari bube agiye ku Ruzi rwa Nili. Uhagarare aho ushobora guhura na we ku nkombe y’Uruzi rwa Nili, kandi uzitwaze ya nkoni yahindutse inzoka.+
16 Umubwire uti: ‘Yehova Imana y’Abaheburayo yakuntumyeho+ iti: “Reka abantu banjye bagende, bajye kunkorera mu butayu,” ariko kugeza n’ubu wanze kunyumvira.
17 Yehova aravuze ati: “Iki ni cyo kiri bukumenyeshe ko ndi Yehova.+ Dore iyi nkoni mfite ngiye kuyikubitisha amazi yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili maze ahinduke amaraso.
18 Amafi yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili ari bupfe, Uruzi rwa Nili runuke kandi Abanyegiputa ntibazashobora kunywa amazi yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili.”’”
19 Yehova abwira Mose ati: “Bwira Aroni uti: ‘Fata inkoni yawe maze uramburire ukuboko kwawe ku mazi yo muri Egiputa,+ ku migezi yaho, ku miyoboro y’amazi ya Nili, ku bidendezi+ by’amazi no ku mazi yose ari mu bigega kugira ngo yose ahinduke amaraso.’ Kandi amazi yo mu gihugu cya Egiputa yose azaba amaraso, n’ari mu bikoresho bibajwe mu biti n’ibibajwe mu mabuye.”
20 Mose na Aroni bahita babigenza batyo nk’uko Yehova yabibategetse, Aroni afata inkoni ayikubitisha amazi y’Uruzi rwa Nili Farawo n’abagaragu be bareba, maze amazi yose yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili ahinduka amaraso.+
21 Nuko amafi yari mu Ruzi rwa Nili arapfa,+ Uruzi rwa Nili ruranuka. Abanyegiputa bananirwa kunywa amazi yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili.+ Amazi yose yo mu gihugu cya Egiputa ahinduka amaraso.
22 Ariko abatambyi bo muri Egiputa bakora iby’ubumaji na bo bakora nk’ibyo babikoresheje ubumaji bwabo,+ bituma Farawo akomeza kwinangira ntiyabumvira, nk’uko Yehova yari yarabivuze.+
23 Nuko Farawo asubira iwe kandi ibyo yari amaze kubona na byo ntiyabyitaho.
24 Abanyegiputa bose bacukura mu mpande z’Uruzi rwa Nili bashaka amazi yo kunywa kuko batashoboraga kunywa amazi yo mu Ruzi rwa Nili.
25 Yehova amaze guteza icyago Uruzi rwa Nili, hashira iminsi irindwi.
