(Ng'humb. 1:9-18)
13 Zua da ikabili Musa kasola nafasi yake kamba mulamula wa wanhu, na wanhu wamzunguluka songela imitondo mbaka ichungulo. 14 Kipigiti Yeslo viyagawene gaja gose Musa gayawatendele wanhu, kalonga, “Choni kino chuuwatendela wanhu? Habali utenda gano gose gweye wiyeka, na wanhu wano wose wokuzunguluka gweye songela imitondo mbaka ichungulo?”
15 Musa kamulongela Yeslo, “Kwavija wanhu wokwiza kumwangu na kuuza gaja goyolonda Mulungu. 16 Wanhu wahawa na ngomba yoyose, woigala kumwangu, na nie nowalamula wanhu hiwo, na nowalongela ndagizi na malagizo ga Mulungu.”
17 Yeslo kamulongela Musa, “Kinhu chuutenda hakinogile. 18 Kweli koidonheza mwenyego, moidonheza mose, gweye na wanhu wano wali hamoja na gweye. Sang'hano ino ng'hulu ng'hani kumwako, hudaha kuisang'hana gweye wiyeka. 19 Nitegeleze nie. Nie nokugwelela masala, na Mulungu kowa hamoja na gweye. Wime haulongozi wa Mulungu sama ya wanhu wose, na gweye kozigala mbuli zao kumwake. 20 Gweye uwafundize ndagizi za Mulungu, kowapetela vija vowolondigwa kukala, na kija chowolondigwa kutenda. 21 Sagula wanhu wali na udaho kulawa mmwanza wa wanhu wose, wanhu womdumba Mulungu, wanhu walibule uzenzeleganye, na awo wokwihilwa kulava ama kubokela hela za uzenzeleganye. Uwasagule wawe vilangizi wa wanhu alufu, wanhu mia, wanhu malongo matano, na wanhu longo dimwe. 22 Hewo wosang'hanika kamba walamula wa wanhu mkipigiti chose, kila mbuli ngaga woigala kumwako, ila mbuli ibuhile woilamula hewo wenyego. Avo vobuha kumwako kwavija wosangila kulamula mbuli hamoja na gweye. 23 Kamba uhatenda vino, kamba viyalagize Mulungu, huidonheza, na wanhu wano wose wochola mzikae zao kuno mbuli zao zimalile.”
24 Musa kamtegeleza Yeslo na kutenda gose gayalongile. 25 Musa kasagula wanhu wali na udaho kulawa mwa Waislaeli wose, na kuwatenda kuwa vilangizi, wawe wakulu wa madale ga wanhu alufu, wanhu mia, wanhu malongo matano, na wanhu longo dimwe. 26 Na hewo wasang'hanika kamba walamula wa wanhu m'vipigiti vose, mbuli ngaga wazigala ha Musa, ila mbuli zibuhile wazilamula hewo wenyego. 27 Abaho Musa kamulaga Yeslo, na Yeslo kabwela muisi yake mwenyego.
