1Tsono Mose amaweta ziweto za mpongozi wake Yetero, wansembe uja wa ku Midiyani. Tsiku lina iye anazitsogolera kupita ku chipululu ndipo anafika ku phiri la Mulungu lotchedwa Horebu.

2Kumeneko mngelo wa Yehova anaonekera kwa iye mʼmalawi amoto mʼchitsamba. Mose anaona kuti ngakhale chitsambacho chimayaka koma sichimanyeka.

3Tsono Mose anati mu mtima mwake, “Ine ndipita komweko ndikaone zodabwitsazi, chitsamba sichikunyeka chifukwa chiyani?”

4Yehova ataona kuti Mose anapatuka kuti adzaonetsetse, Mulungu anamuyitana Mose kuchokera mʼchitsambamo nati, “Mose! Mose!” Ndipo anayankha, “Wawa.”

5Mulungu anati, “Usayandikire kuno. Vula nsapato zako, pakuti malo amene wayimapo ndi opatulika.”

6Mulungu anati, “Ine ndine Mulungu wa makolo ako, Mulungu wa Abrahamu, Mulungu wa Isake, ndi Mulungu wa Yakobo.” Atamva zimenezi, Mose anaphimba nkhope yake chifukwa anaopa kuona Mulungu.

7Yehova anati, “Ine ndaona ndithu mazunzo a anthu anga amene ali ku Igupto. Ndamva kulira kwawo chifukwa cha anthu amene akuwapsinja, ndipo ndakhudzidwa ndi masautso awo.

8Choncho ndabwera kuti ndiwapulumutse mʼdzanja la Aigupto, kuwatulutsa mʼdzikolo ndi kukawalowetsa mʼdziko labwino ndi lalikulu, dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi, kwawo kwa Akanaani, Ahiti, Aamori, Aperezi, Ahivi ndi Ayebusi.

9Ine ndamva ndithu kulira kwa Aisraeli, ndipo ndaona mmene Aigupto akuwazunzira.

10Kotero tsopano, pita. Ine ndikukutuma kwa Farao kuti ukatulutse anthu anga, Aisraeli mʼdziko la Igupto.”

11Koma Mose anafunsa Mulungu, “Ine ndine yani kuti ndipite kwa Farao ndi kukatulutsa Aisraeli mʼdziko la Igupto?”

12Ndipo Mulungu anati, “Ine ndidzakhala nawe, ndipo ichi chidzakhala chizindikiro kwa iwe kuti ndine amene ndakutuma; Ukadzatulutsa anthu anga mʼdziko la Igupto, udzapembedza Mulungu pa phiri lino.”

13Mose anati kwa Mulungu, “Ngati ndipita kwa Aisraeli ndi kukawawuza kuti, ‘Mulungu wa makolo anu wandituma kwa inu,’ ndipo iwo nʼkukandifunsa kuti ‘Dzina lake ndi ndani?’ Tsono ine ndikawawuze chiyani?”

14Mulungu anati kwa Mose, “NDINE AMENE NDILI. Izi ndi zimene ukanene kwa Aisraeli: ‘NDINE wandituma kwa inu.’ ”

15Mulungu anatinso kwa Mose, “Ukanene kwa Aisraeli kuti ‘Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo anu, Mulungu wa Abrahamu, Mulungu wa Isake, ndi Mulungu wa Yakobo, wandituma kwa inu.’ Ili ndilo dzina langa mpaka muyaya, ndipo mibado ya mʼtsogolomo izidzanditchula ndi dzina limeneli.

16“Pita, ukawasonkhanitse akuluakulu a Israeli ndipo ukati kwa iwo, ‘Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo anu, Mulungu wa Abrahamu, Isake ndi Yakobo, anandionekera ndipo akuti Iye wadzakuyenderani ndipo waona mmene Aigupto akukuzunzirani.

17Choncho wanenetsa kuti adzakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto, dziko la masautsoli kupita ku dziko la Akanaani, Ahiti, Aamori Aperezi, Ahivi ndi Ayebusi, dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi.’

18“Akuluakulu a Israeli akakumvera. Kenaka iwe ndi akuluakuluwo mukapite kwa mfumu ya Igupto ndipo mukanene kuti, ‘Yehova, Mulungu wa Ahebri, wakumana nafe. Tsono tikukupemphani kuti mutilole tipite pa ulendo wa masiku atatu mʼchipululu kuti tikapereke nsembe kwa Yehova Mulungu wathu.’

19Koma Ine ndikudziwa kuti mfumu ya Igupto sikakulolani kuti mupite pokhapokha Ine nditayikakamiza.

20Tsono Ine ndidzatambasula dzanja langa ndi kukantha Aigupto ndi zodabwitsa zanga zimene ndidzazichita pakati pawo. Zikadzatha izi, Iye adzakulolani kuti mupite.

21“Ndipo ine ndidzafewetsa mtima wa Aigupto pa anthu anga, kotero kuti mukadzatuluka simudzapita wopanda kanthu.

22Mkazi aliyense adzapemphe Mwigupto woyandikana naye ndiponso mkazi amene akukhala mʼnyumba yake, kuti amupatse ziwiya za siliva ndi golide ndiponso zovala zimene mudzaveka ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi. Ndipo potero mudzawalanda zonse Aiguptowo.”
