12 Saka chienda, uye ini ndichava newe paunenge uchitaura,* uye ndichakudzidzisa zvaunofanira kutaura.”+
13 Asi iye akati: “Pamusoroi Jehovha, tumai henyu chero mumwe wamunoda kutuma.”
14 Jehovha akabva atsamwira Mozisi kwazvo, akati: “Ko mukoma wako Aroni+ muRevhi haako here? Ndinoziva kuti anogona kutaura zvakanaka chaizvo. Uye atova munzira kuuya kuzokuchingura. Paachakuona, mwoyo wake uchafara.+
15 Saka unofanira kutaura naye woisa mashoko acho mumuromo make,+ uye ndichava nemi pamunenge muchitaura,+ uye ndichakudzidzisai zvekuita.
16 Achataura nevanhu achikumiririra, uye achava mutauriri wako, uye iwe uchava saMwari kwaari.*+
17 Uye uchaenda netsvimbo iyi iri muruoko rwako wonoita zviratidzo nayo.”+
18 Saka Mozisi akadzokera kuna Jetro tezvara vake,+ akati kwavari: “Regai ndichienda, ndidzokere kuhama dzangu kuIjipiti kuti ndinoona kana vachiri vapenyu.” Jetro akati kuna Mozisi: “Enda zvako; ufambe zvakanaka.”
19 Jehovha akazoti kuna Mozisi ari kuMidhiyani: “Enda, dzokera kuIjipiti, nekuti varume vese vakanga vachida kukuuraya* vakafa.”+
20 Mozisi akabva atora mudzimai wake nevanakomana vake, akavakwidza padhongi, akapinda munzira akananga kunyika yeIjipiti. Mozisi akaendawo netsvimbo yaMwari wechokwadi iri muruoko rwake.
21 Jehovha akabva ati kuna Mozisi: “Kana wadzokera kuIjipiti, uone kuti waita zvishamiso zvese zvandakakupa simba rekuita pamberi paFarao.+ Asi ini ndichamurega achiomesa mwoyo,+ uye haazoregi vanhu vachienda.+
22 Unofanira kuti kuna Farao, ‘Jehovha ari kuti: “Israeri ndiye mwanakomana wangu, dangwe rangu.+
23 Ndinoti kwauri, Rega mwanakomana wangu aende, kuti anondishumira. Asi kana ukasamubvumira kuenda, ndichauraya mwanakomana wako, dangwe rako.”’”+
24 Pavakanga vari munzira vava panzvimbo yekurara, Jehovha+ akasangana naye uye aida kumuuraya.+
25 Zipora+ akazotora dombo rakapinza* akachecheudza mwanakomana wake, uye akaita kuti ganda racho raakanga acheka rigunzve tsoka dzake,* akati: “Nekuti muri muroori* weropa kwandiri.”
26 Saka akamusiya. Zipora akabva ati, “muroori weropa,” nekuda kwekuchecheudzwa kwacho.
27 Jehovha akabva ati kuna Aroni: “Enda kurenje unochingura Mozisi.”+ Saka akaenda, akasangana naye kugomo raMwari wechokwadi,+ akamukwazisa nekumutsvoda.
28 Uye Mozisi akaudza Aroni mashoko ese aJehovha, uyo akanga amutuma,+ nezviratidzo zvese zvaakanga amurayira kuti aite.+
