Pamene ndinakantha ana oyamba kubadwa ku Igupto, ndinawapatulira kwa Ine mwini. 18Ndipo ndatenga Alevi mʼmalo mwa ana aamuna onse oyamba kubadwa mu Israeli. 19Mwa Aisraeli onse, ndapereka Alevi kuti akhale mphatso kwa Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna kugwira ntchito ya ku tenti ya msonkhano mʼmalo mwa Aisraeli onse kuti azikapereka nsembe yopepesera machimo, kuti mliri usadzaphe Aisraeli pamene ayandikira ku malo wopatulika.”
