1Pantsiku yakuyamba ya mwezi wacitatu aIjirayeri atacoka kale mudziko la Ijipito, adafika kucidambo ca Sinai. 2Atacoka kuRefidimu, adakafika kucidambo ca Sinai, ndipo Ijirayeri adamanga m'sasa kutsogolo kwa phiri.

3Pamwepo, Mozeji adakwira paphiri kuti agumane na Mulungu. Ndipo Mbuya ali m'phirimo adamucemera aciti: “Uza mbumba ya Jakobo, omwe ni aIjirayeri, tenepa: 4Imwepo mudawona bzomwe ndidacita Ijipito, ndipombo momwe ndidakutakulani m'maphaphidwe ya mphungu, ndicikubweresani kuna Ine. 5Tsapano, mungandibvera mwakukhulupirika mucikoya cipangano cangu, imwepo mun'dzakhala cuma cangu cakusankhulidwa pakati pa mbumba zentse. Napo dziko la pantsi lentse liri langu, 6imwepo mun'dzakhala umambo bwangu bwa azibaba wa ntsembe, ndipombo mtundu wakucena. Yamweya ndiyo mafala yakuti iwepo uuze aIjirayeri”.

7Mozeji adabwerera acicemeresa atsogoleri wa mbumba, ndipo adawafotokozera mafala yentse yomwe Mbuya adamutuma kuti akalewe. 8Pamwepo, mbumba yentse idatawira kabodzi-na-kabodzi,

idati: “Bzentse bzomwe Mbuya walewa, tin'dzacita”. Ndipo Mozeji adakafokotozera Mbuya bzomwe mbumba idalewa.

9 Mbuya adauza Mozeji kuti: “Ndirikubwera kuna iwe mumtambo uvsipa, kuti mbumba ikadzabva kulewa-lewa kwangu na iwepo, imbadzakukhulupirire nthawe zentse”. Pamwepo Mozeji adauza Mbuya bzomwe mbumba idalewa.

10 Mbuya adauza Mozeji kuti: “Ndoko kuna mbumba, ukaicenese lero na mangwana. Iwo afule bzakubvala bzawo, 11ndipo akhale wakukondzeka pantsiku yacitatu, thangwe ntsiku imweyo Mbuya an'dzabuluka muphiri la Sinai pamaso pa mbumba yentse. 12Ikha malire mwakuzungulira phiriro, uza mbumba kuti: Khalani na cheru muleke kukwira muphiri ayai kukhuya malire yace. Ali-yentse omwe an'dzalikhuya phiriro, cadidi an'dzaphedwa. 13Palibe omwe angadzalikhuye na manja, tsono an'dzabomedwa na minyala ayai kulasidwa na misewe. Munthu napo bzinyama, bzin'dzakhala lini na moyo. Pokha-pokha cimbututu cikadzalira kabodzi mwakupitiriza, iwo angadzakwire paphiri”.

14Mozeji atabuluka paphiri, adacenesa mbumba. Ndipo iyo idafula bzakubvala bzayene. 15Pamwepo iye adauza mbumba kuti: “Mkuca uno, khalani wakukondzekera, ndipo kuyambira lero mpaka ntsikuyo lekani kugona pabodzi na mkazi”.

16Ndipo kumacibese mkuca wace, kudabveka kugunda na bziphaliwali, na mtambo wakusvipa udampsinkha phiriro. Kudabveka kulira mwamphambvu kwa cimbututu, ndipo mbumba yentse yomwe ikhali pamsasa idatetemera na mantha. 17Mozeji adatenga mbumba aciyenda nayo kunja kwa msasa, kuti akagumane na Mulungu, ndipo iwo adaima munyantsi mwa phiri. 18Phiri la Sinai lentse likhadampsinkhika na utsi, nakuti Mbuya akhadabulukira patsonga ya phirilo mwa cirambirambi ca moto. M'phirimo mukhakwira utsi ninga bwa forno, ndipo phiri lentse likhatekenyeka mwakugosva, 19ndipo muwira wa cimbututu ukhathimizirika mwamphambvu. Pamwepo Mozeji adalewa-lewa, ndipo fala la Mulungu lidamutawira mwa kugunda.

20 Mbuya adabwera pantsonga ya phiri la Sinai, ndipo adacemera Mozeji pantsonga ya phiripo. Mozeji adakwira, 21ndipo Mbuya adauza Mozeji kuti: “Buluka, ukacenjeze mbumba kuti ileke kupitirira malire kudzawona Mbuya, sabwa azinji mwa iwo angafe. 22Napo azibaba wa ntsembe omwe an'bwera kuna Mbuya, abzicenese, akaleka Mbuya an'dzawadzonga”. 23Mozeji adauza Mbuya kuti: “Mbumba ingakwire lini paphiri la Sinai, nakuti Iwepo udaticenjezeratu, kuti: ‘Ikha malire m'mphepete mwa phiri uwadziwise kuti ni phiri lakucena’ ”. 24 Mbuya adamuuza kuti: “Buluka ndipo ukwire pomwe pabodzi na Aloni. Tsono azibaba wa ntsembe na mbumba aleke kupitirira malire kubwera kuna Mbuya, akaleka Mbuya an'dzawadzonga”. 25Pamwepo Mozeji adabuluka adadziwisa mbumba.
