1 Kino kitaabo, kiyerekiini ngiisi kwo Musa akabwira Abahisiraheeri, ikyanya bâli ki riiri mwiꞌshamba, uluhande lweꞌsheere lwoꞌlwiji Yorodaani. Ku yikyo kyanya, bâli ki shumbisiri mu ndekeera, hoofi naꞌkaaya keꞌSufu, ha kati koꞌtwaya tulebe. Luhande luguma, hali akaaya keꞌParaani. Noꞌlundi, hali akaaya keꞌTofeeri, kuguma naꞌkeꞌLabaani, naꞌkeꞌHaserooti, naꞌkeꞌDizahabu. 2 (Ukushaaga ku mugazi Horebu, halinde i Kadeeshi-Barineya, kuli mu mala isiku ikumi na luguma, iri wangalenga mu kihugo kyeꞌmigazi yeꞌSeyiri.)

3 Abahisiraheeri bâli mali hisa imyaka makumi gana, balyosiri i Miisiri. Mu lusiku lwa mbere lwoꞌmwezi gwiꞌkumi na muguma, Musa anababwira ngiisi kwo Nahano akamúkomereza kwo ababwire. 4 Ku yikyo kyanya, Musa âli mali hima mwami Sihooni waꞌBahamoori, wa mu kaaya keꞌHeshibooni. Âli mali hima na mwami Hoogi weꞌBashaani, wa mu kaaya keꞌHashitarooti, noꞌwa mu kaaya keꞌHedireyi.

5 Yabo Bahisiraheeri, ikyanya bâli ki riiri uluhande lweꞌsheere lwoꞌlwiji Yorodaani, mu kihugo kyeꞌMohabu, Musa anatondeera ukubamenyeesa imaaja za Rurema, 6 ti: «Ikyanya twâli ki riiri ku mugazi Horebu, Nahano Rurema witu, akatubwira kwokuno: “Keera mwamala ikyanya kingi mushumbisiri hoofi na guno mugazi. 7 Aaho! Buno, mulyokage hano, mugende mu kihugo kyeꞌmigazi yaꞌBahamoori, na mu batuulani baabo booshi baꞌBakaanani. Mulenge mu ndekeera yeꞌYorodaani, na mu migazi yeꞌNegebu, na mu tubanda twayo, kiri na ku ngombe yeꞌNyaaja Mediterane. Munagenderere mu migazi yeꞌLebanooni, halinde ku lwiji luhamu Hefuraati.

8 «“Lolagi! Kiriira kihugo, keera namùheereza kyo. Ngahwe! Mugendi kigwata. Nie Nahano. Kirya kihugo, keera nꞌgakyula kwo ngakiheereza bashokuluza biinyu Hiburahimu, na Hisake, na Yakobo, naꞌbandu beꞌbibusi byabo.”»

9 Musa anashubi bwira abandu: «Ikyanya twâli ki riiri ku mugazi Sinaayi, nꞌgamùbwira kwokuno: “E balya, nienyene, ndashobwiri ukumùrongoora. 10 Mukuba, Nahano, Rurema winyu, keera akamùluza, halinde mukola kanyegete, nga ndonde kwiꞌgulu. 11 Nahano, Rurema wa bashokuluza biinyu, amùyushuule ubugira kali kihumbi. Anakizi mùgashaanira ngana-ngana, nga kwo akamùlagaania. 12 Kwokwo, nienyene, ndangahasha ukumùhahala ku makayu giinyu, na ku makuba giinyu, kandi iri kumùhambuula ku milongwe yinyu. 13 Ku yukwo, mu ngiisi mulala, mutoolage mwaꞌbandu bitegeereza, banabe noꞌbumenyi, banabe basimbahirwi. Yabo, ngababiika babe bimangizi biinyu.”

14 «Lyeryo, mwananjuvya, ti: “Ee! Yibyo watubwira, biri biija.”

15 «Kwokwo, kwo nꞌgayabiira birya birongoozi mu kati kiinyu. Bali bitegeereza, banasimbahirwi. Baguma baabo, nanababiika babe bimangizi baꞌbandu kihumbi-kihumbi. Abandi, bayimangire abandu igana-igana. Naꞌbandi, bayimangire abandu makumi gataanu-gataanu. Naꞌbandi, bayimangire abandu ikumi-kumi. Kwokwo mu ngiisi mulala, nanatoola mwaꞌbandi boꞌkukizi mùtanduula.

16 «Ku kyekyo kyanya, nanahanuula naꞌbatwi beꞌmaaja: “Ikyanya mugakizi leeterwa imaaja, mukizi zitwa ku njira íkwaniini, ziba za beene winyu kandi iri zeꞌbinyamahanga íbimùtuuziri mwo. 17 Yizo maaja, mu kuzitwa, hatabe ye mugakundirira, aba mundasumbwa, kandi iri mugunda. Si booshi, mukizi bayuvwiriza buzira ndoola. Mutanakizi kangwa neꞌnjusho yoꞌmundu. Haliko, mukwiriiri mukizi twa imaaja kwiꞌziina lya Rurema. Ulubaaja lulebe, iri lwangamùkayira, munanyijire, gira naani mbayuvwirize. 18 Ku kyekyo kyanya, lyo ngamùyereka ngiisi kwo mukwaniini ukugira.”

19 «Ukukulikirana na ngiisi kwo Nahano, Rurema witu âli mali tukyulira, twanayimukaga yaho ku mugazi Horebu. Mwenyene mukayibonera ngiisi kwo tukalenga muꞌlya namuhirye wiꞌshamba, lyanâli kizi tuhahaza bweneene. Twanashokola injira, halinde mu migazi yaꞌBahamoori, twanahika i Kadeeshi-Barineya. 20 Ku yikyo kyanya, nanamùbwira: “Buno keera mwahika hoofi neꞌmigazi yaꞌBahamoori. Ikihugo kyabo, Nahano, Rurema witu, keera akatuheereza kyo. 21 Aaho! Lolagi ikihugo yiki kiri imbere liinyu, keera amùheereza kyo. Ku yukwo, mugendi kigwata, nga kwo Nahano, Rurema wa bashokuluza biinyu akamùbwira. Mutayobohe, si musikame.”

22 «Kwokwo, mweshi mwanayija imunda ndi, mwanambwira: “Tutee lungika abandu, gira bagwanwe bagahiriza ikihugo. Ha nyuma, banayiji tumenyeesa injira yo tugazamuuka mwo. Batuyereke noꞌtwaya two tugayingirira mwo.”

23 «Iyo mitono yinyu, yananzimiisa. Kwokwo, mu kati kiinyu, nanatoola mwaꞌbandu ikumi na babiri, muguma-muguma wa mu ngiisi mulala. 24 Yabo bandu, banagenda mu migazi, banahika mu ndekeera yeꞌHeshikooli, banagigahiriza. 25 Banayabiira yeꞌbitumbwe biguma, banatuleetera byo, banatumenyeesa, ti: “Ikihugo kyo Nahano, Rurema witu atuheereza, kiri kiija ngana-ngana.”

26 «Kundu bakadeta kwokwo, haliko mwanalahira kwo mutagakiyingira mwo. Mwanahuna, mu kugayiriza amagambo ga Nahano, Rurema winyu. 27 Yaho mu maheema giinyu, mwanakizi múkyokola, ti: “E balya, si Nahano atushombiri! Kyo kyatuma atulyosa mu kihugo kyeꞌMiisiri, gira ayiji tubiika mu maboko gaꞌBahamoori, batuminike. 28 Aaho! Kutagi kandi kwo twangashobola ukuyingira mwo? Si beene witu keera batuvuna indege, mu kutubwira: Ka mwangabona? Abatuulaga ba mu kirya kihugo, bali bihagarusi, banali bifigisi ukutuhima. Kiri noꞌtwaya twabo, natwo tuli tuhamu. Inzitiro zaatwo, zishuumiri halinde ku bibungu. Twanabona kiri naꞌbandu bahamu bweneene, Abahanaaki.”

29 «Kundu kwokwo, nanamùbwira: “E balya, mutashenguke, mutanabayobohe.” 30 Si Nahano, Rurema winyu ali mu genda imbere liinyu. Yenyene agamùlwira, nga kwokulya akamùgirira irya munda i Miisiri, 31 kiri neꞌrya munda mwiꞌshamba. Mu lugeezi lwinyu, mukayibonera ngiisi kwo akamùtengetera, nga kwoꞌmushosi ali mu tengetera umwana wage. Neꞌri hakatama, mwanahika hano.

32-33 «Nahano âli kizi gwanwa imbere liinyu, gira amùloogeze ngiisi ho mugashumbika. Bushigi, âli kizi gwanwa mu nguliro yoꞌmuliro, gira akizi mùmolekera ho mugakizi lenga. Kiri na mwiꞌzuuba, âli kizi boneka mu kibungu. Kundu mukabona yago gooshi, haliko mutanabiika Nahano kwoꞌmulangaaliro.

34 «Irya midodombo yinyu, iri Nahano akagiyuvwa, anaraakara, ti: 35 “Yiki kibusi, si kibihuusiri! Kwokwo, nashiikiza kwo ndaaye kiri noꞌmuguma winyu, úgayingira mu kihugo kiija kyo nꞌgalagaania bashokuluza biinyu. 36 Haliko Kalebu mugala Yefune, yeki agakibona. Nganamúhereeza kyo, kibe kyeꞌmwage, kuguma naꞌbeꞌkibusi kyage. Ngiisi ho agaafina, ngamúheereza ho. Mukuba, akangulikira ku mutima gwage gwoshi.”

37 «Hiꞌgulu liinyu, kiri na naani, nie Musa, Nahano anandakarira kwakundi. Anambwira: “E Musa, kiri na naawe, utâye yingire mu kirya kihugo. 38 Haliko, umutabaazi wawe Yoshwa mugala Nuuni, yeki ye gakiyingira mwo. Kwokwo, umúhe ikise. Mukuba, yikyo kihugo, ye garongoora balya Bahisiraheeri kwo bakigwate.”

39 «Ha nyuma, Nahano anatubwira tweshi kwokuno: “Si mwadeta kwaꞌbaana biinyu bagatwalwa imbohe! Naani namùbwira kwo zeene, yabo baana baki toohiri, batanazi sobanukirwa naꞌmabi, kandi iri miija. Kundu kwokwo boohe, bo bagayingira mu kihugo. Na mbaheereze kyo, bakihyane. 40 Halikago mwehe, muhindukage, munagalukire mwiꞌshamba. Mugwate injira yoꞌkugenda iwa Nyaaja Ndukula.”

41 «Ku lwolwo lusiku, mwâli toniri kwo bigavwaruka ukugendi teera abandu beꞌyo migazi, kyanatuma mugambwira: “Ku kasiisa, twahubira Nahano. Kundu kwokwo buno, twamu gendi lwa, nga kwo Nahano, Rurema witu keera akatukomeereza.” Ngiisi muguma winyu anayabiira isiribo zaage.

42 «Lyeryo, Nahano anambwira: “Nanga! Ubwire yaba bandu, kwo batagendi lwa. Si tutaki tuliinwi! Neꞌri bangagenda, bagaahimwa naaho naꞌbagoma baabo.”

43 «Kundu nꞌgamùkengula kwokwo, si mutakanyuvwa. Kiri naꞌmagambo ga Nahano, mutakagatwaza. Mwanahaasa naaho, kwo mugendi yingira mwiꞌyo migazi.

44 «Neꞌri mukayingira mwo, Abahamoori, abatuulaga baamwo, banamùshindibuka kwo, nga kwokulya kweꞌnjuki. Banamùfutira-futira iyo munda i Seyiri, banamùlandiriza halinde i Horima.

45 «Ikyanya mukagalukaga, mwanatakira Nahano bweneene, iri munaliruuka. Kundu kwokwo, anamùhindulira ingoto, atanamùtwaza. 46 Mwanahisa isiku nyingi, mushumbisiri iyo munda i Kadeeshi.
