Mumange msasa m'mphepete mwa nyandza kunyang'anisana na Baala-Zefoni. 3Falau an'dzakumbuka kuti aIjirayeri alikufamba mwakusaya kudziwa, ataika m'cidambo. 4Pamwepo nin'dzaumisa m'tima wa Falau ndipo iye an'dzawatewera. Mwa bzentsenebzo Ine nin'dzatumbizidwa kudzera mwa Falau na wankhondo wace wentse. Ndipo aIjipito an'dzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Mbuya”. Ndipo aIjirayeri adacita tenepoyo.

5Adauza mambo wa muIjipito kuti mbumba yathawa. Pamwepo Falau na wakulemekezeka wace adacinja ndzeru ndipo adati: “N'ciyani comwe tacita? Talekerera aIjirayeri kuti ayende ndipo taluza anyagirinya wathu!” 6Pamwepo Falau adawauza kuti akondze ngolo yace ndipo adatenga gulu lace la nkhondo. 7Adatenga ngolo zentse za nkhondo kuphatikidza madzana matanthatu (600) ya ngolo zakufunikira adaikha m'tsogoleri pangolo iri-yentse. 8 Mbuya adaumisa m'tima wa Falau, mambo wa kuIjipito, ndipo iye adatewera aIjirayeri, omwe akhafamba mwautumbi. 9AIjipito na makavalo yentse na ngolo za nkhondo za Falau, na wakufamba na makavalo wace na gulu la acikunda wakufamba na minyendo, adacoka aciwatewera aIjirayeri ndipo adakawagumana ali pamsasa mumphepete mwa nyandza pafupi na Pi-Hahirote yakunyang'anisana na Baal-Zefoni.

10Falau pomwe akhafendera, aIjirayeri adawona aIjipito akhabwera kuna iwo ndipo adabva mantha acikuwa mwakudandaula kuna Mbuya. 11Adauza Mozeji kuti: “Kodi n'kulewa kuti kuIjipito kukhalibe thenje ndipopa watibweresa kuti tidzafere kucidambo kuno? Waticitiranyi terepoyo, kuticosa kuIjipito? 12Ife tidakuuziratu kuIjipito kuti: Tisiye mwamtendere! Tin'dzakhala anyagirinya wa aIjipito! Bziribwino kukhala anyagirinya wa aIjipito kuposa kufera mucidambo!”

13Mozeji adatawira mbumba kuti: “Lekani mantha. Limbikani muwone cipulumuso comwe Mbuya an'kucitirani lero, thangwe imwepo mun'dzawawona lini pomwe aIjipito omwe mulikuwonawa. 14 Mbuya an'kumenyerani nkhondo imwepo derekhani”.

15Pamwepo Mbuya adauza Mozeji kuti: “Thangwe ranyi iwepo ulikudandaula kuna Ine? Uza aIjirayeri kuti ayende kutsogolo. 16Dzusa mpsimbo yako, ufuthule boko panyandza, ndipo madzi yan'dzagawika kuti aIjirayeri ayambuke pakuuma. 17Tsono Ine nin'dzaumisa mitima ya aIjipito, kuti an'dzakutewereni. Kukundidwa kwa Falau, na acikunda wace wentse na ngolo zace na wakufamba na makavalo wace, kun'dzacitisa kuti ndidzatumbizidwe. 18AIjipito an'dzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Mbuya, pakutumbizidwa kwangu na kukunda Falau na ngolo zace na wakufamba na makavalo wace”.

19Pamwepo anju wa Mulungu, omwe akhayenda patsogolo pa acikunda wa Ijirayeri, adacoka aciyenda m'mbuyo mwawo. Napombo Pilar ya mtambo idacoka patsogolo pawo, ndipo idakakhala m'mbuyo mwawo, 20icikakhala pakati pa aIjipito na aIjirayeri. Mtambo udabweresa mdima kuna awa ndipo ceza kuna anango, mwakuti usiku bwentsenebo aIjipito alibe kukwanisa kufendera kuna aIjirayeri.

21Pamwepo, Mozeji adafuthula boko padzulu pa nyandza, ndipo Mbuya adagawa nyandza pacikhala pakuuma kudzera mwa mphepo ya mphambvu ya kumabva-dzuwa idafuliza usiku bwentse. Madzi yadagawika, 22ndipo aIjirayeri adayambuka na pakati pa nyandza pakuuma, madzi yadakhala ninga litsito kuboko lawo ladidi na kuboko ladzere.

23AIjipito adawatewera m'mbuyo, ndipo makavalo yentse, ngolo za nkhondo, na wakufamba na makavalo wa Falau adapita mpaka pakati pa nyandza. 24Ndipo madandakweca, Mbuya ali mupilar ya moto na ya mtambo, adawona acikunda wa aIjipito ndipo adawacitisa phiringu. 25Adacitisa kuti bzigaleta bza ngolo zawo bziyambe kufonyoka mwakuti akhafambisa mwakuneseka. Ndipo aIjipito adakuwa aciti: “Mbatiwathaweni aIjirayeri! Mbuya ali kucipande cawo kumenya aIjipito”.

26Tsono, Mbuya adauza Mozeji kuti: “Futhula boko lako panyandza, kuti madzi yabwerere yamize aIjipito, na ngolo zawo na wakufamba na makavalo wawo”. 27Na tenepo Mozeji adafuthula boko panyandza, ndipo pomwe kukhacena nyandza idabwerera mwace mwa kale. Pomwe aIjipito akhathawa, adakagumana na madzi, ndipo Mbuya adawathusa m'nyandza. 28Madziyo yadabwerera yacimiza ngolo za nkhondo na wakufamba na makavalo na acikunda wentse wa Falau, omwe akhadatewera aIjirayeri m'nyandza. Palibe na m'bodziyo omwe adapulumuka.

29Tsono, aIjirayeri adayambuka nyandza acifamba pakuuma, madzi yakhadakhala ninga litsito, kumphimpha ya ladidi na ya ladzere. 30Ntsiku imweire Mbuya adapulumusa Ijirayeri m'manja mwa aIjipito, ndipo aIjirayeri adawona aIjipito wakufa m'mphepete mwa nyandza. 31Tenepoyo aIjirayeri adawona mphambvu ikulu ya Mbuya yomwe adakundanayo aIjipito, mbumba idagopa Mbuya, icim'khulupirira na m'tumiki wace Mozeji.
