² Nuko abo mu bwoko bwa Israheli bivangura n’abanyamahanga, maze bishinja ibyaha byabo, barabyicuza, hamwe n’iby’abasekuruza babo.

³ Hanyuma barahaguruka, bamara igice cya kane cy’umunsi basomerwa igitabo cy’Amategeko y’Uhoraho Imana yabo, buri wese agihagaze mu mwanya we; naho mu kindi gice cya kane cy’umunsi, bapfukama imbere y’Uhoraho, basaba imbabazi z’ibyaha byabo.

⁶ Nuko Ezira aravuga ati «Ni wowe wenyine Uhoraho! Ni wowe waremye ijuru, urema ikirere n’ingabo zacyo zose; isi uyiremana n’ibiyiriho byose, hamwe n’inyanja n’ibiyibamo; ibyo byose ni wowe bikesha kubaho kandi n’ingabo zo mu ijuru, imbere yawe zirunama.

⁹ Witegereje ibyago abasokuruza bacu bagiriye mu Misiri, maze ugutakamba kwabo ukumvira hafi y’Inyanja y’Urufunzo.

¹⁰ Weretse Farawo ibimenyetso n’ibitangaza byinshi, abagaragu be n’abatuye igihugu cye ubigirizaho nkana, kuko wari uzi ko bishongoye ku bakurambere bacu, maze izina ryawe riba ikirangirire, kuva ubwo na n’ubu.

¹¹ Inyanja wayibaciriyemo icyambu, bayinyuramo rwagati humutse, naho abari babahomereye, ubabirindurira ikuzimu, nk’ibuye baroshye mu mazi magari.

¹⁶ Ariko abasokuruza bacu bo, bakwishongoyeho, bagushingana ijosi, banga kubahiriza amategeko yawe.

¹⁷ Banze kumvira, biyibagiza ibyiza byose wabagiriye, bagushinganye ijosi, basigara bifuza kwisubirira mu bucakara bwo mu Misiri. Nyamara wowe, kuko uri Imana Nyir’imbabazi, ukaba umugwaneza n’umunyampuhwe, kandi ugatinda kurakara, n’impuhwe zawe ntizigereranywe, ntiwigeze ubatererana.

¹⁸ N’igihe bayazaga ibyuma, bakabyicuriramo inyana, hanyuma bakavuga bati ’Dore Imana yawe yagukuye mu Misiri’, kandi bagakora n’ibindi bibi byinshi bakakubabaza;

¹⁹ wowe, kubera impuhwe zawe zitagereranywa, ntiwigeze ubatereranira mu butayu; inkingi y’igicu yakomeje kubayobora inzira ku manywa, naho nijoro inzira bakayiyoborwa n’inkingi y’umuriro.

²⁰ Wabamanuriyeho umwuka wawe mwiza, kugira ngo bamenye gushishoza; manu yawe bayihozaga mu itama, ukabaha n’amazi ngo bice akanyota.

²¹ Mu myaka mirongo ine bamaze mu butayu wabamenyeraga ikibatunga, nta n’ikindi bigeze bashaka ngo bakibure, imyambaro yabo ntiyabashiriyeho, n’ibirenge byabo ntibyabyimbagana.

²² Wabeguriye ingoma z’abami, ubagabira ibihugu, ibihugu bahana imbibi barabitura, bigarurira icya Sihoni, umwami wa Heshiboni, n’icya Ogi, umwami wa Bashani.

²⁵ Bigaruriye imigi yubakiye n’ubutaka burumbuka, batura mu mazu arimo ibyiza by’amoko yose, amariba afukuye, imizabibu n’imizeti biba ibyabo, ndetse n’ibiti byera imbuto bitagira uko bingana. Barariye barahaga, baranabyibuha, maze baradamarara kubera ineza yawe.

²⁶ Nyamara bo barakwivumburiye, bakwivumbagatanyaho, amategeko yawe bayahigikira kure, bica abahanuzi bawe bababwirizaga kukugarukira, kandi bakora n’ibindi bibi byinshi, birakubabaza.

²⁷ Ni bwo ubagabije abanzi babo barabashikamira, ariko mu kababaro kabo baragutakira, maze aho uri aho mu ijuru urabumva, kubera impuhwe ugira uboherereza abatabazi, ngo babakure mu nzara z’abanzi babo.
