Ekesode 2:1-25
2 Mu tshikondo atshi, muntu mukuabu wa mu nzubu wa Lewi wakasela muana wa bakaji wa Lewi.+
2 Mukaji au wakimita difu, kulelaye muana wa balume. Pakamonaye ne: muana au uvua muimpe kumona, wakamusokoka munda mua ngondo isatu.+
3 Pakamonaye ne: katshivua kabidi ne mushindu wa kumusokoka,+ wakangata tshisaka* tshiluka ne nyandu,* kutshilabaye kabudimbu ne budimbu, yeye kutekamu muana, kutshitekaye mu malenge avua ku muelelu kua Musulu wa Nile.
4 Kadi muanabu wa bakaji+ wakimana pa bule bua kumona tshivua mua kumufikila.
5 Pavua muana wa bakaji wa Palô mupueke bua kuowa mâyi mu musulu wa Nile, bena mudimu bende ba bakaji bavua benda bendela kumpenga kua musulu wa Nile. Wakamona tshisaka mu malenge. Yeye kutuma diakamue mupika wende mukaji bua kutshiambula.+
6 Pavuaye mutshikangule, wakamona muana wa balume, ne muana au uvua udila. Wakamumvuila luse, kadi kuambaye ne: “Eu ngumue wa ku bana ba bena Ebelu.”
7 Ke muanabu wa bakaji kuambila muana wa bakaji wa Palô ne: “Udi musue nye kubikila umue wa ku bamamu bena Ebelu bua alue kukuamushila muana eu anyi?”
8 Muana wa bakaji wa Palô wakamuambila ne: “Ndaku!” Diakamue muana wa bakaji wakaya, yeye kubikila mamuende wa muana.+
9 Pashishe muana wa bakaji wa Palô wakamuambila ne: “Angata muana eu, umungamushile, nenkufute.” Nunku mamu au wakangata muana, kutuadijaye kumuamusha.
10 Pakakola muana, wakamufila kudi muana wa bakaji wa Palô, kuluaye muanende.+ Wakamuinyika ne: Mose,* kuambaye ne: “Mbualu ndi mumupatule mu mâyi.”+
11 Mu matuku au, Mose mumane kulua muntu mukole,* wakapatuka, kuyaye kudi bana babu bua kumona majitu avuabu bambula;+ yeye kumona muena Ejipitu kampanda ukuma muanabu mukuabu muena Ebelu.
12 Nunku wakatangila eku ne eku, ne bu muvuaye kayi mumone muntu, wakashipa muena Ejipitu au, kumusokokaye mu lusenga.+
13 Kadi dituku diakalonda wakapatuka kabidi, yeye kumona bena Ebelu babidi baluangana. Ke yeye kuambila uvua mu tshilema ne: “Udi ukuma mukuebe+ bua tshinyi?”
14 Ke yeye kuamba ne: “Udi mukuteke mukokeshi ne mulumbuluishi wetu nnganyi? Udi ukeba kunshipa muuvua mushipe muena Ejipitu+ anyi?” Nunku Mose wakumvua buôwa, kuambaye ne: “Bushuwa, bualu bukadi bumanyike!”
15 Pashishe Palô wakumvua bualu abu, kukebaye bua kushipa Mose; kadi Mose wakanyema Palô, kuyaye bua kusombela mu buloba bua Midiyana.+ Pakafikaye kuntu aku, wakasomba kumpenga kua tshina tshia mâyi.
16 Muakuidi wa mu Midiyana+ uvua ne bana ba bakaji muanda mutekete, ne bana abu bakalua bua kusuna mâyi, ne kuwuja binuinu bia mâyi bua kunuisha mikoko ya tatuabu.
17 Kadi bu pa tshibidilu, balami ba mikoko bakalua, bakabipata. Ke Mose kujuka, kuambuluisha* bansongakaji abu, kunuishaye mikoko yabu mâyi.
18 Pakafikabu kumbelu kua tatuabu Luele,*+ wakakema ne: “Mmunyi munudi bapingane lelu ku nzubu pa lukasa?”
19 Bakandamuna ne: “Muena Ejipitu+ mukuabu uvua mutusungile kudi balami ba mikoko, kutusunyinaye too ne mâyi ne kunuishaye mikoko.”
20 Yeye kuambila bana bende ba bakaji ne: “Kadi muntu au udi penyi? Bua tshinyi nudi bamushiye kuntu aku? Mubikilayi bua tulue kudia nende.”
21 Pashishe Mose wakitaba bua kusomba ne muntu au, yeye kuselesha muanende wa bakaji Sipola+ kudi Mose.
22 Pakapita matuku Sipola wakalela muana wa balume, Mose kumuinyika ne: Gêshoma,*+ bualu wakamba ne: “Ndi mulue kusomba buenyi mu buloba+ bua bende.”
23 Pakapita tshikondo tshile,* mukalenge wa Ejipitu wakafua,+ kadi bena Isalele bakatungunuka ne kutua mikemu bua bupika ne badila bua kanyinganyinga, ne muadi wabu bua kulomba diambuluisha bua bupika abu uvua anu ubanda kudi Nzambi mulelela.+
24 Nzambi wakalua kumvua mikemu yabu,+ Nzambi kuvulukaye tshipungidi tshivuaye mudie ne Abalahama ne Izaka ne Yakoba.+
25 Nunku Nzambi wakatangila kudi bena Isalele, kumonaye dikenga diabu.
