Ndakamupa Izaka, 4awalo Izaka ndakamupa Jakobo a Isau. Nyika yazilundu zyaku Siiya ndakiipa Isau, pele Jakobo abana bakwe bakainka ku Ijipiti. 5Bweende-bweende ndakatuma Mozesi a Aloni, ndakapenzya Baijipiti a zeezyo nzindakacita, mbwindakamugwisya nywebo omuya. 6Ciindi nindakagwisya basikale banu mu Ijipiti, nibakasika kulwizi lusalala, Baijipiti bakabatobela ankalaki abasimabbiza. 7Baisilayeli nibakabona boobo, bakalilila Mwami Leza kuti abagwisye, eelyo wakabikka mudima akati kandinywe a Baijipiti. Kumane wakabavumbya lwizi baloba. Mwakalibonena eezyo nzindakacita ku Baijipiti. Mwakakkala munkanda kwaciindi cilamfu.
8“Kuzwa kooko ndakamutola kucisi ca Baamoli cili kujwe lyamulonga wa Jolodani. Bakamulwana, pele ndakabaaba kulindinywe. Ndakabanyonyoona kumbele lyanu, mwakatola nyika yabo. 9Ciindi Balaki mwanaa Zipoo, mwami waku Mowabu naakayanda kuzoomulwana, wakaita Balaamu mwanaa Beyo kuti azoomusinganye. 10Pele ndakakaka kuswiilila zyakaamba Balaamu, aboobo wakamuleleka. Ndakamuvuna kuzwa kulinguwe. 11Mwakazubuka mulonga wa Jolodani mwaakusika kumunzi wa Jeliko. Bantu bamumunzi wa Jeliko bakamulwana, mbubonya mbuli bwakacita Baamoli, Bapelezi, Bakenani, Bahiti, Bageegasyi, Bahivi a Bajebusi. Abalo aaba ndakabaaba kulindinywe. 12Ndakabatumina manko, ngaakamutandila bami bobilo ba Baamoli. Talili panga nibuba buta bwanu bwakacita kuti bazundwe. 13Nkaako ndakamupa nyika njimwatakabelekela alimwi aminzi njimwatakayaka, mulakkala mulinjiyo akulya nsaansa amaoliva ngimwatakasyanga.”
14Lino Josyuwa wakaindilizya akuti, “Amulemeke Mwami Leza akumubelekela cakusyomeka. Amusowe baleza aabo basikale banu mbibakali kukomba mutala lyamulonga uulya amu Ijipiti, mubelekele Mwami Leza. 15Pele kuti kamutayandi kubelekela Mwami Leza amusale sunu ooyo ngomweelede kubelekela, naa muyanda kubelekela baleza aabo basikale banu mbibakali kukomba mutala lyamulonga uulya, naa baleza ba Baamoli bali munyika eeyi njomukkede. Pele mebo lwangu amukwasyi wangu tulabelekela Mwami Leza.”
16Mpoonya bantu bakaingula kuti, “Tatukonzyi kuleka Mwami Leza kuti tubelekele baleza bambi! 17Mwami Leza wesu lwakwe nguwakatugwisya abasikale besu mu Ijipiti mubuzike, wakacita zigambya katulibwenene. Wakatukwabilila mulweendo lwesu loonse aakati kamisyobo mutwakainda. 18Mwami Leza nguwakatutandila misyobo yoonse, kubikkilizya a Baamoli bakakkede munyika iino. Aswebo mbubonya tuyoobelekela Mwami Leza, nkaambo ngu Leza wesu.”
19Kumane Josyuwa wakaambila bantu kuti, “Ambweni inga mulaba nomutabelekeli Mwami Leza. Nkaambo ngu Leza uusalala, ngu Leza uutalekeleli bakomba baleza bambi. Takooyoolekelela buzangi bwanu niziba zinyonyoono zyanu. 20Kuti mukake Mwami Leza akugama kubelekela baleza bambi, uyoomufutatila akumuletela mapenzi mane kusikila mukalobe myoo, nikuba kuti kusaanguna wakali kumucitila zibotu.”
21Pele bantu bakaambila Josyuwa kuti, “Peepe, tuyoobelekela Mwami Leza.”
22Aawo Josyuwa wakati, “Muli bakamboni banu nobeni mukuti mwasala kubelekela Mwami Leza.” Balo bakaingula kuti, “Iiyi, tuli bakamboni.”
23Mpoonya Josyuwa wakati, “Mbubo, lino amusowe baleza bambi aabo bali akati kanu, mubikke myoyo yanu ku Mwami Leza, Leza wa Isilayeli.”
24Bantu bakaambila Josyuwa kuti, “Tuyoobelekela Mwami Leza wesu, tunoomuswiilila.”
