Musa na Aroni basaba Farawo umunsi mukuru mu butayu, akababwira ko atazi iyo Mana. Icyarire kirakurwaho ariko umubare w'amatafari uhorana, abakuru b'abantu barakubitwa, maze Isiraheli ishinja Musa. Musa agaruka, abaza Data wa twese impamvu yamutumye.
5 1Nyuma yaho Musa na Aroni bagiye kwa Farawo baramubwira bati: “Data wa twese wa Isiraheli aravuga atya ngo: Reka ubwoko bwanjye bugende bungirire umunsi mukuru mu butayu.”
2Farawo arabasubiza ati: “Imana ni nde ngo nyumvire ijwi ryayo mreke Isiraheli agende? Sinzi Imana, kandi sinzareka Isiraheli ngo agende.”
3Baravuga bati: “Data wa twese yahuye natwe. Reka tugende urugendo rw'iminsi itatu mu butayu dutambire Data wa twese, kugira ngo atadukubita icyorezo cyangwa inkota.”
4Ariko umwami wa Misiri arababwira ati: “Musa na Aroni, kuki mukura abantu ku mirimo yabo? Nimusubire ku mirimo yanyu!” 5Farawo aravuga ati: “Dore abantu bo mu gihugu none ni benshi, nyamara mushaka ko baruhuka ku mirimo!”
6Uwo munsi nyine Farawo ategeka ba shebuja b'inkoreragahato n'abakuru b'abantu ati: 7“Ntimugakomeze guha abantu icyarire cyo gukoresha amatafari nk'uko byahozeho. Bagomba kujya kwishakira icyarire ubwabo.
8Mubahe amatafari angana n'ayo bakoraga nk'uko byahozeho, ntimukayagabanye. Ni abanebwe, ni cyo gituma batakambira bati: 'Reka tugende dutambire Imana yacu.' 9Muce abagabo intege ku mirimo, kugira ngo bakomeze bakore birengagize ibinyoma.”
10Ba shebuja b'inkoreragahato n'abakuru b'abantu barasohoka babwira abantu bati: “Farawo aravuga ati: 'Simkibaha icyarire.' 11Nimugende mwishakire icyarire aho muzakibona hose, ariko imirimo yanyu ntabwo izagabanywa na gato.'” 12Nuko abantu baratatana mu gihugu cya Misiri cyose, batoragura ibikenyeri ngo bibabere icyarire. 13Ba shebuja b'inkoreragahato bakomeza kubasaba bati: “Nimwuzuze incuro yanyu ya buri munsi, nk'uko byagendaga igihe mwari mufite icyarire.” 14Abakuru b'Abisiraheli, abo ba shebuja b'inkoreragahato ba Farawo bari barashyizeho, babakubita babaza bati: “Kuki mutuzuza incuro yanyu y'amatafari ejo n'uyu munsi nk'uko byahozeho?”
15Nuko abakuru b'Abisiraheli baraza batakambira Farawo bati: “Kuki ugenza abagaragu bawe utya? 16Abagaragu bawe nta cyarire bahabwa, nyamara baratubwira bati: 'Nimukore amatafari!' Dore babakubita abagaragu bawe, nyamara abantu bawe ni bo bafite amakosa.”
17Farawo arababwira ati: “Muri abanebwe! Muri abanebwe! Ni cyo gituma muvuga muti: 'Reka tugende dutambire Imana.' 18None nimugende mukore. Nta cyarire muzahabwa, nyamara mwuzuze incuro yanyu yose y'amatafari.”
19Abakuru b'Abisiraheli babona ko bari mu kaga igihe babwirwaga ngo: “Ntimukagabanye incuro yanyu y'amatafari ya buri munsi.” 20Bavuye kwa Farawo, basanga Musa na Aroni babategereje, 21baramubwira bati: “Data wa twese abarebe kandi abacire urubanza, kuko mwatumye Farawo n'ibyegera bye baduzinukwa, mwashyize inkota mu ntoki zabo ngo batwice.”
22Nuko Musa asubira kwa Data wa twese aravuga ati: “Data, Nyagasani wanjye, kuki wazaniye aba bantu amakuba? Kuki wantumye rwose?
23Kuva naherutse kwa Farawo kuvuga mu izina ryawe, yagiriye aba bantu nabi, kandi ntabwo wakijije ubwoko bwawe na gato.”
