Eksodo 10 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

10 ¹Ndipo Atate wathu anati kwa Mose, “Pita kwa Farao, pakuti Ine ndinaumitsa mtima wake ndi mitima ya atumiki ake, kuti ndiike zizindikiro zanga pakati pawo. ²Uuze mwana wako ndi mdzukulu wako mmene ndinanyoza Aigupto ndi mmene ndinaika zizindikiro zanga pakati pawo, kuti mudziwe kuti Ine ndine Atate wanu.”

³Mose ndi Aroni anapita kwa Farao nati, “Atate wa Ahebri akunena kuti, ‘Kodi udzakana kudzichepetsa pamaso panga mpaka liti? Alole anthu anga apite kuti akanditumikire.’ ⁴Pakuti ngati ukana kulola anthu anga kupita, mawa ndidzabweretsa dzombe mʼdziko lako. ⁵Lidzaphimba nkhope ya dziko, kuti nthaka isaonekenso, nadzadya zotsala zimene matalala anakusiyira, nadzadya mtengo uliwonse umene ukukula mʼmunda mwako. ⁶Lidzadzaza nyumba zako, nyumba za atumiki ako, ndi nyumba za Aigupto onse—zimene makolo ako ndi agogo ako sanazionepo, kuchokera masiku amene anakhala pa dziko lapansi mpaka lero.” Ndipo anatembenuka nachoka kwa Farao.

⁷Nduna za Farao zinati, “Kodi munthu uyu adzatitchera msampha mpaka liti? Alole anthuwa apite kuti akatumikire Mulungu wawo. Kodi simukudziwabe kuti Igupto layonongeka?”

⁸Mose ndi Aroni anabwezedwa kwa Farao. “Pitani, katumikireni Mulungu,” iye anatero. “Koma ndani adzapita?”

⁹Mose anati, “Tidzapita ndi achinyamata athu ndi okalamba athu; ana aamuna, ana aakazi, nkhosa, ndi ng'ombe—tidzapita, pakuti tili ndi phwando kwa Atate wathu.”

¹⁰Iye anati kwa iwo, “Mulungu akhale ndi inu—ngati kuti ndingakuloleni inu ndi ana anu aang'ono kupita! Taonani, muli ndi choipa mʼmaganizo anu. ¹¹Ayi! Inu amuna pitani kayi mukatumikire Mulungu, popeza ndizo mukufuna.” Ndipo Farao anawapirikitsa pamaso pake.

¹²Ndipo Atate wathu anati kwa Mose, “Tambasula dzanja lako pa Igupto kuti dzombe libwere pa Igupto, lidye chomera chilichonse cha mʼdziko chimene matalala anasiya.”

¹³Mose anatambasula ndodo yake pa Igupto, ndipo Atate wathu anatumiza mphepo yakummawa pa dziko tsiku lonse ndi usiku wonse; kutacha mʼmawa, mphepoyo inabweretsa dzombe. ¹⁴Dzombe linabwera pa Igupto lonse, nalikhazikika mʼdera lake lonse—linali loopsa kwambiri, lisanaonekepo longa ilo, ndipo silidzaonekanso. ¹⁵Linaphimba nkhope ya dziko lonse, nalichititsa mdima, nadya chomera chilichonse cha mʼdziko, ndi zipatso zonse za mitengo zimene matalala anasiya—panalibe chobiriwira chotsala pa mtengo kapena pa chomera cha kutchire mʼdziko lonse la Igupto. ¹⁶Ndipo Farao anaitana msanga Mose ndi Aroni, nati, “Ine ndachimwira Mulungu wanu ndi inunso. ¹⁷Chonde ndikhululukireni tchimo langa kamodzi kokhaka, ndipo mupemphe Mulungu wanu kuti achotse imfa iyi yokhayi pa ine.”

¹⁸Ndipo Mose anatuluka kwa Farao napempha kwa Atate wathu. ¹⁹Ndipo Atate wathu anasandutsa mphepo kukhala mphepo yamphamvu kwambiri yakumadzulo, imene inanyamula dzombe nalilowetsa mʼNyanja Yofiira; panalibe dzombe nʼlimodzi lomwe limene linatsala mʼdera lonse la Igupto. ²⁰Koma Atate wathu anaumitsa mtima wa Farao, ndipo iye sanalole ana a Israeli kupita.

Masiku Atatu a Mdima

²¹Ndipo Atate wathu anati kwa Mose, “Tambasulira dzanja lako kumwamba, kuti mdima uphimbe dziko la Igupto—mdima wandiweyani umene munthu angaukhudze.”

²²Mose anatambasulira dzanja lake kumwamba; mdima wandiweyani unaphimba dziko lonse la Igupto masiku atatu. ²³Panalibe munthu amene anatha kuona mnzake, ndipo panalibe munthu amene anachoka pamalo pake kwa masiku atatu, koma Aisraeli onse anali ndi kuwala mʼnyumba zawo.

²⁴Farao anaitana Mose nati, “Pitani, katumikireni Mulungu wanu. Ngakhale ana anu angapite—koma musiye nkhosa ndi ng'ombe zanu.”

²⁵Mose anati, “Inunso muyenera kutipatsa nsembe ndi nsembe zopsereza zimene tidzapereka kwa Atate wathu. ²⁶Ziweto zathu ziyeneranso kupita nafe—palibe chikhadabo chimodzi chimene chidzatsalira. Tidzatenga zina kuti tikatumikire Atate wathu; sitidzadziwa chimene tidzafunikira kuti timtumikire Iye mpaka titakafika kumeneko.”

²⁷Koma Atate wathu anaumitsa mtima wa Farao, ndipo iye sanafune kuwalola kupita. ²⁸Farao anati kwa iye, “Choka pamaso panga! Samala—usadzaonenso nkhope yanga, pakuti tsiku limene udzaona nkhope yanga, udzafa.”

²⁹Mose anati, “Mwanena bwino. Sindidzaonanso nkhope yanu.”
