Musengwa Katonda agha abantu amaadhi okuva mu lubaale

(Kub 20:1-13)

1Abaisiraeli boonaboona baasimbuka okuva mu irungu eryetebwa Sina, baajanga nga basula mu bifo eby’endhawulo nga Musengwa Katonda bweyabalagiranga. Oluvainhuma baasimba weema dhaibwe e Refidimu, aye ate yaabulayo amaadhi ge basobola okunhwa. 2Kale beemuluguunhiza Musa nga bamukanda bati: “Ife tufunire amaadhi ag’okunhwa.” Musa yaabairamu ati: “Lwaki muneemuluguunhiza? Lwaki muleba Musengwa Katonda.” 3Aye abantu olw’okuba baali ndiwo, nga bazira maadhi ga kunhwa, baaja mu maiso n’okwemuluguunhiza Musa nga baamukoba bati: “Lwaki watutoola e Misiri okutwisa endiwo, ife n’abaana baife, n’ensolo dhaife?”

4Kale Musa yaalirira Musengwa Katonda ati: “Wo Musengwa Katonda, nkole ntya abantu bano? Babulaku katono okunkuba amabaale nfe.” 5Musengwa Katonda yaamwiramu ati: “Toola abandi ku bakulu ab’ebikunsu mu Isiraeli, muje mwesookenga abantu emberi. Era ja n’omwigo gwo gwe wakuba ku mwiga Kiyira. 6Nze ndidha kuba nga ndi eyo ku lusozi Horebu emberi waimwe. Oidha kukuba olubaale era amaadhi gaidha kuvaamu, abantu ge baghanga okunhwa.” Musa yaakola atyo ng’abakulu ab’ebikunsu mu Isiraeli babona.

7Abantu abo Abaisiraeli beemuluguunhiza Musengwa Katonda era baamuleba nga bakoba bati: “Aye bwene Musengwa Katonda ali mu ife oba bbe?” Kale Musa kyeyava n’atuuma ekifo ekyo amaina gano: Massa, eritegeeza “okuleba”, ni Meriba, eritegeeza “Okwemuluguunhia”.

Olutalo n’Abamaleki

8Agho Abamaleki baidha okulwana n’Abaisiraeli e Refidimu. 9Musa yaakoba Yoshua ati: “Londayo abasaadha muje enkyo mulwane n’Abamaleki. Nze ndidha kuba ku mutwe ogw’olusozi nga ngemye omwigo Katonda gwe yankoba okuja nagwo.” 10Yoshua yaakola nga Musa bweyamukoba, yaalwana n’Abamaleki Musa, ni Aaroni, ni Hura, baaja baaniina ku mutwe ogw’olusozi. 11Kiisi Musa lwe yaghanikanga omukono ng’Abaisiraeli banhigiriza Abamaleki, ate kiisi lwe yagwisanga ng’Abamaleki n’abanhigiriza Abaisiraeli. 12Aye Musa yaaluyirira emikono, kale Aaroni ni Hura baaleeta eibaale yaatyamaku, beene baamwemerera ku mbali ni ku mbali, baamugemerera emikono nga bagighaniike kale gyaba nga giri ghaigulu okutuusa endhuba okugwa.

14Musengwa Katonda yaakoba Musa ati: “Obughanguzi obwo bughandiike mu kitabo bulobe kwerabirwa. Era okobere Yoshua oti ndidha kuzikiriza Abamaleki mbamaliregho irala.”17:14: Ma 25:17-19; 1 Sam 15:2-9 15Musa yaazimba alutaari yaagituuma eriina “Musengwa Katonda ni bendera yange.” 17:15 “Musengwa Katonda ni bendera yange,” oba, Musengwa Katonda n’andeetera okughangula. 16Era yaakoba ati: “Mughanike ebendera ya Musengwa Katonda ghaigulu inho. Musengwa Katonda aidha kulwananga n’Abamaleki buli luse olunairangagho.”
