Inhlupheko yeshumi: ukufa kwamazibulo
1 UJehova wayesethi kuMose: “Ngisezakuletha inhlupheko eyodwa kuFaro nakulo iGibithe; ngasemuva uyakunivumela ukuba nisuke lapha; yebo, nxa eniyeka ukuba nihambe, uzakunixosha nokunixosha lapha. 2 Khuluma manje ezindlebeni zabantu ukuba yilowo nalowo mlisa acele kumakhelwane wakhe, yilowo nalowo wesifazane acele kumakhelwane wakhe izinto zesiliva nezinto zegolide.” 3 UJehova wabapha abantu umusa emehlweni abaseGibithe. Futhi lowo muntu uMose wayemkhulu kakhulu ezweni laseGibithe emehlweni ezinceku zikaFaro nasemehlweni abantu.
4UMose wathi: “Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: ‘Ngaphakathi kwamabili ngizakuphuma, ngiye phakathi kweGibithe; 5amazibulo onke asezweni laseGibithe ayakufa, kusukela kulo izibulo likaFaro ohlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi kuze kube kulo izibulo lencekukazi engasetsheni lokugaya, kanye namazibulo onke ezinkomo. 6Kuyakuba khona ukukhala okukhulu ezweni lonke laseGibithe, okungazange kube khona okungangako, okungasayikuba khona futhi okungangako. 7Kepha kubo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli akuyikubakho nanja eyakugwavumela umuntu nenkomo,’ ukuze nazi ukuthi uJehova uyahlukanisa iGibithe no-Israyeli. 8Zonke lezi zinceku zakho ziyakwehla, zifike kimi, zingikhothamele, zithi: ‘Phuma wena nabantu bonke abakulandelayo; emva kwalokho ngizakuphuma.’ ” Waphuma kuFaro evutha ulaka.
9 Wayesethi uJehova kuMose: “UFaro akayikukulalela ukuba izimangaliso zami zande ezweni laseGibithe.” 10 OMose no-Aroni bazenza zonke lezi zimangaliso ebusweni bukaFaro; uJehova wayenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro, kabavumelanga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuphuma ezweni lakhe.
