1 33:1 Mwandzo 12:7; Mwandzo 26:3; Mwandzo 28:13Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba Musa, “Waatsamiza hinya atu kula Misiri. Sambi ukani hipha mphiye tsi ambayo námuahidi Burahimu, Isaka na Jakobo. Náapira nchiamba, ‘Tsi ihi nindaipha chivyazicho.’ 2 Nindahuma malaika akulongozeni na nindazola Akanani, Aamori, Ahiti, Aperizi, Ahivi na Ajebusi. 3 Phiyani kpwenye tsi yenye rutuba. Ela sindaphiya phamwenga namwi, sababu mu atu a likakado, musiosikira. Nchedza phamwenga namwi nindaweza kukuangamizani mo njirani.”

4 Atu ariphosikira maneno higo mai, asononeka na taphana hata mmwenga ariyevwala tsona marembo. 5 Mana Mwenyezi Mlungu kala akamuambira Musa, “Aambire Aiziraeli: Mana mu visoto tamsikira. Nchiphiya phamwenga namwi hata kpwa dakika mwenga, ninaweza kukuangamizani. Sambi vulani marembo genu nami nindafikiriya nikuhendenidze.” 6 Phahi kuandzira mwango wa Horebu*33:6 Horebu ni dzina ranjina ra mwango Sinai. na kpwenderera Aiziraeli avula mapambo gao.

7 Phahi Musa kala nkuhala hema na akarichita kondze ya kambi kure chidide, naye kala achiriiha “Hema ra Mkpwutano.” Mutu yeyesi ambaye kala analonda ushauri wa Mwenyezi Mlungu kala achiphiya kuriko na hiro hema kondze ya kambi. 8 Wakati wosi Musa ariphophiya hiko hemani, atu osi kala achiima miryangoni mwa mahema gao, kuno analola Musa hadi ainjire hemani. 9 Bada ya Musa kuinjira hemani, ingu ziho kala richitserera na kuziba mryango, wakati Mlungu anagomba na Musa. 10 Na atu, ariphoona ingu ziho riimire phara mryango wa hema ra mkpwutano, kala achiphiya achichita mavwindi achiabudu miryangoni mwa mahema gao. 11 Mwenyezi Mlungu kala anaweza kubisha na Musa bila kumfwitsa chitu, dza viratu mutu abishavyo na msenawe. Halafu Musa kala achiuya kambini, ela msaidiziwe barobaro, Joshuwa mwana wa Nuni, kala katuluka himo hemani.

12 Musa wamuamba Mwenyezi Mlungu, “Che uchiniambira, ‘Alongoze atu hano.’ Ela nalonda nimanye ichikala undakala phamwenga naswi ama undahuma mutu wanjina. Chisha uchiamba, ‘Ninakumanya vinono, yani namanya dzinaro, na unanihamira.’ 13 Ela ichikala kpweli unahamirwa ni mimi, nifundza mipangoyo ili nikumanye na nienderere kuphaha mendzwayo. Tsona tambukira kukala watsambula kundi rosi hiri rikale atuo.” 14 Ndipho Mlungu achimuamba, “Mi mwenye nindaphiya phamwenga namwi na nindakuhenda ukale na amani.”

15 Phahi Musa achimuamba, “Ichikala kundaphiya phamwenga naswi, usihuuse kula hipha huripho. 16 Ichikala kundaphiya naswi, atu andamanyadze kukala mimi phamwenga na atuo hunakuhamira? Ni chitu chani ambacho chindatafwautisha atuo kula kpwa kundi ra atu ririro duniani?”

17 Na Mwenyezi Mlungu achimuamba Musa, “Nindahenda chitu chicho ambacho ukachilonda, chisa ni nakumanya vinono na ninakumendza.” 18 Phahi Musa achiamba, “Sambi nionyesa mwanga ungʼalao wakati u phapho.”

19 33:19 Arumi 9:15Naye Mlungu achimuamba, “Nindakpwedza kpwako nawe undaona unono wangu. Nindagomba dzina rangu, ‘Mwenyezi Mlungu,’ nawe undasikira. Nkumjaliya na kuonyesa mbazi mutu yeyesi nimlondaye. 20 Ela kuruhusiwa kuona uso wangu, sababu takuna mwanadamu anionaye, akaishi.” 21 Phahi Mwenyezi Mlungu achienderera kugomba achiamba, “Undaima dzulu ya mwamba phapha phephi nami, 22 ili mwanga wangu unaphotsupa, nindakutiya pango ra hinyo mwamba na nindakuziba na fumba ra mkpwono wangu hadi nkale nkatsupa. 23 Halafu nindausa fumba ra mkpwono wangu nawe undaona mongo wangu, ela uso wangu kundauona.”
