Ekesodo 2:1-25
2 Ka yone nako eo, monna mongwe wa lotso lwa ga Lefi o ne a nyala mosadi mongwe wa lotso lwa ga Lefi.+
2 Mme mosadi yoo a ima a bo a tshola ngwana wa mosimane. E rile a bona gore o montle, a nna a mo fitlhile dikgwedi di le tharo.+
3 Fa a ne a sa tlhole a kgona go mo fitlha,+ o ne a tsaya mmanki* wa papirase a o tshasa bitumena le boka a bo a tsenya ngwana mo go one mme a o baya mo gare ga matlhaka fa lotshitshing lwa Noka ya Nile.
4 Mme kgaitsadie+ o ne a emela kgakajana go bona gore go tla direga eng ka ene.
5 Fa morwadia Faro a ne a tla go tlhapa mo Nile, batlhokomedi ba gagwe ba basadi ba ne ba tsamaya fa thoko ga Nile. Mme o ne a bona mmanki mo gare ga matlhaka. Ka yone nako eo, a roma lelata la gagwe gore le tle le one.+
6 Fa a o bula o ne a bona ngwana, mme mosimane yoo o ne a lela. O ne a mo tlhomogela pelo, le fa gone a ne a re: “Yono ke mongwe wa bana ba Bahebera.”
7 Foo kgaitsadie a raya morwadia Faro a re: “A nka ya go go biletsa mosadi yo o anyisang mo basading ba Bahebera gore a go anyisetse ngwana yono le go go thusa go mo tlhokomela?”
8 Morwadia Faro a mo raya a re: “Tsamaya!” Ka yone nako eo, mosetsana yono o ne a tsamaya mme a bitsa mmaagwe ngwana.+
9 Foo morwadia Faro a raya mmaagwe ngwana a re: “Tsaya ngwana yono o tsamaye ka ene mme o mo nkanyisetse o bo o mo ntlhokomelele, ke tla go duela.” Ka jalo, mosadi a tsaya ngwana a ya go mo anyisa le go mo tlhokomela.
10 Fa ngwana a gola o ne a mo isa kwa go morwadia Faro, mme a nna morwawe.+ O ne a mmitsa Moshe* a bo a re: “Ke ka gonne ke mo ntshitse mo metsing.”+
11 Mo metlheng eo, fa Moshe a setse a godile,* o ne a ya kwa go bomorwarraagwe gore a bone ditiro tse di boima tse ba neng ba di dira,+ mme a bona Moegepeto a itaya Mohebera, mongwe wa bomorwarraagwe.
12 Ka jalo, o ne a leba kwa le kwa mme e rile a sa bone ope, a bolaya Moegepeto a bo a mo fitlha mo motlhabeng.*+
13 O ne a tswa gape mo letsatsing le le latelang mme go ne go na le banna ba babedi ba Bahebera ba ba neng ba lwa. Ka jalo, a raya yo o neng a le phoso a re: “O iteelang morwarrago?”+
14 Foo a mo raya a re: “Ke mang yo o go tlhomileng gore o nne kgosana le moatlhodi wa rona? A o batla go mpolaya jaaka o bolaile Moegepeto?”+ Jaanong Moshe a boifa mme a re: “Ruri kgang eno e a itsiwe!”
15 Faro o ne a utlwela ka kgang eno, mme o ne a batla go bolaya Moshe; Moshe o ne a tshaba a ya go nna kwa lefatsheng la Midiana,+ mme fa a fitlha koo, o ne a nna fa fatshe fa sedibeng.
16 Jaanong moperesiti wa kwa Midiana+ o ne a na le bana ba basetsana ba le supa, mme ba ne ba tla go ga metsi ba tlatsa mekoro e leruo le nwelang mo go yone gore ba nose letsomane la ga rraabone.
17 Mme jaaka gale, badisa ba ne ba tla ba bo ba ba leleka. Foo Moshe a ema a thusa* basadi bano mme a nosa letsomane la bone.
18 Fa ba boela gae kwa go Reuele*+ rraabone, o ne a gakgamala a re: “Ke ka ntlha yang fa lo tlile ka bonako jaana gompieno?”
19 Ba ne ba mo araba ba re: “Moegepeto+ mongwe o ne a re golola mo seatleng sa badisa e bile o ne a re gela metsi a bo a nosa le letsomane.”
20 O ne a raya bomorwadie a re: “Jaanong o kae? Ke ka ntlha yang fa lo tlogetse monna yoo kwa morago? Mmitseng, gore a tle go ja le rona.”
21 Morago ga moo, Moshe o ne a dumela go nna le Reuele, mme o ne a naya Moshe morwadie e bong Siphora+ gore a mo nyale.
22 Moragonyana o ne a tshola ngwana wa mosimane mme Moshe a mmitsa Gereshome,*+ ka gonne o ne a re, “Ke fetogile motswakwa mo lefatsheng le sele.”+
23 Morago ga lobaka lo loleele,* kgosi ya Egepeto e ne ya swa,+ mme Baiseraele ba ne ba tswelela ba le mo kutlobotlhokong ka ntlha ya bokgoba e bile ba ne ba lela ba ngongorega. Mme ba ne ba nna ba lelela kwa Modimong wa boammaaruri gore a ba thuse.+
24 Fa nako e ntse e tsamaya, Modimo o ne a utlwa selelo sa bone sa kutlobotlhoko+ mme a gopola kgolagano e a e dirileng le Aborahame, Isake le Jakobe.+
25 Ka jalo, Modimo o ne a leba Baiseraele; mme o ne a ela tlhoko boemo jo ba neng ba le mo go jone.
