Enzige Zirya Ebirime by’Abamisiri

110:1 a Kuv 4:21 b Kuv 7:3Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Genda eri Falaawo, kubanga nnyongedde okukakanyaza omutima gwe, n’omutima gw’abaweereza be, ndyoke mbalage ebyamagero byange bino: 210:2 Kuv 12:26-27; 13:8, 14; Ma 4:9; Zab 44:1; 78:4, 5; Yo 1:3era naawe onyumize abaana bo, n’abaana b’abaana bo, ebintu bye nkoledde mu Misiri, n’ebyamagero bye mbalaze; nammwe mulyoke mutegeere nga nze Mukama.”

310:3 1Bk 21:29; Yak 4:10; 1Pe 5:6Awo Musa ne Alooni ne bagenda ewa Falaawo, ne bamugamba nti, “Mukama Katonda wa Abaebbulaniya n’agamba bw’ati nti, ‘Olituusa ddi ng’okyagaanye okwetoowaza mu maaso gange? Leka abantu bange bagende, bansinze. 410:4 Kub 9:3Singa ogaana okubakkiriza okugenda, enkya nzija kuleeta enzige mu nsi yo. 510:5 Kuv 9:32; Yo 1:4Zijja kubikka ensi yonna, wabulewo n’omuntu w’ayisa eriiso okulaba ettaka. Zijja kulya ebyo omuzira bye gwalekawo, zirye ne buli muti ogukula mu nnimiro. 6Zinajjuza amayumba go, n’amayumba g’abakungu bo bonna, n’amayumba g’Abamisiri bonna; ekyo bakadde bo, ne bakadde ba bakadde bo nga tebakirabangako kasookedde babeera mu nsi eno n’okutuusa leero.’ ” Musa n’akyuka n’aviira Falaawo.

710:7 a Kuv 23:33; Yos 23:13; 1Sa 18:21; Mub 7:26 b Kuv 8:19Abakungu ba Falaawo ne bamugamba nti, “Omusajja ono alituusa ddi ng’atufuukidde omutego? Leka abantu bagende basinze Mukama Katonda waabwe. Ggwe tolaba Misiri nga bw’eweddewo?” 810:8 Kuv 8:8Musa ne Alooni ne bazzibwa awali Falaawo. N’abagamba nti, “Kale, mugende musinze Mukama Katonda wammwe. Naye abagenda be baani?” 9Musa n’addamu nti, “Abakulu n’abato, batabani baffe ne bawala baffe bonna tujja kugenda nabo; era tugenda n’amagana gaffe n’ebisibo byaffe, kubanga waliwo embaga gye tujja okukolera Mukama.”

10Falaawo n’abagamba nti, “Mukama abeere nammwe, obanga mulowooza nga nzija kubaleka mugende, mmwe n’abaana bammwe! Nze ndaba nga mulina olukwe lwe muteekateeka. 11Nedda! Abasajja bokka ka bagende basinze10:11 Mu ddiini y’Abamisiri, abasajja bokka be beetabanga mu kusinza. Noolwekyo mu kiseera kino, Falaawo yali awambye abakyala n’abaana. Mukama; kubanga ekyo kye mwagala.” Ne bagobebwa awali Falaawo.

1210:12 Kuv 7:19Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo ku nsi ya Misiri oyite enzige, zijje ku nsi ya Misiri, zirye buli kantu konna akamera mu nnimiro, n’ebyo byonna omuzira bye gwataliza.”

1310:13 Zab 105:34Musa n’agolola omuggo gwe ku nsi ya Misiri; Mukama Katonda n’aleeta embuyaga ezaava ebuvanjuba, ne zikunta olunaku olwo lwonna n’ekiro kyonna. Obudde bwe bwakya embuyaga ne zireeta enzige. 1410:14 Zab 78:46; Yo 2:1-11, 25Enzige nnyingi nnyo ne zigwa ku nsi yonna ey’e Misiri, ne zigisaanikira, okuva ku nsalo yaayo ey’oluuyi olumu okutuuka ku y’oluuyi olulala. Zaali nzige za kabi kanene, nga tewalabikanga ziri ng’ezo, era tezigenda kulabika. 1510:15 nny 5; Zab 105:34-35Zaabuutikira ensi yonna, ne wabaawo ekizikiza ku nsi; ne zirya buli kimera kyonna mu nsi, n’ebibala byonna eby’emiti omuzira bye gwali gutalizza; era tewaasigalawo kintu kyonna kya kiragala ku miti n’ebimera mu nnimiro, mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri.

1610:16 Kuv 9:27Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa ne Alooni bunnambiro, n’abagamba nti, “Nnyonoonye eri Mukama Katonda wammwe ne gye muli. 1710:17 Kuv 8:8Mbeegayiridde munsonyiwe olw’okwonoona kwange, omulundi guno gwokka; era musabe Mukama Katonda wammwe anziggyeeko olumbe luno lwokka olututta.” 1810:18 Kuv 8:30Musa n’ava ewa Falaawo ne yeegayirira Mukama. 19Awo Mukama n’aleeta embuyaga ez’amaanyi ennyo nga ziva ebuvanjuba, ne zisitula enzige ne zizisuula mu Nnyanja Emyufu. Tewaasigala nzige n’emu wonna wonna mu nsi y’e Misiri. 2010:20 Kuv 4:21; 11:10Naye Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, abaana ba Isirayiri n’atabakkiriza kugenda.

Ekizikiza Kikwata mu Bamisiri

2110:21 Ma 28:29Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Golola omukono gwo waggulu eri eggulu, wabeewo ekizikiza ku nsi ey’e Misiri; ekizikiza ekiyinza n’okuwulikika.” 2210:22 Zab 105:28; Kub 16:10Musa n’agolola omukono gwe eri eggulu; ne wabaawo ekizikiza ekikwafu mu nsi yonna ey’e Misiri okumala ennaku ssatu. 2310:23 Kuv 8:22Abantu bonna nga tewali asobola kulaba munne; era tewaali yaseguka kuva mu kifo kye w’abeera okumala ennaku ssatu. Naye bo abaana ba Isirayiri ewaabwe ng’obudde bulaba.

2410:24 nny 8-10Awo Falaawo n’atumya Musa, n’amugamba nti, “Mugende musinze Mukama. Abaana bammwe nabo mugende nabo, wabula ente zammwe, n’embuzi n’endiga ze ziba zisigala.”

25Naye Musa n’addamu nti, “Osaana otuleke tutwale ebisolo eby’okuwaayo ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama Katonda waffe. 26Ente zaffe tusaana okugenda nazo; tewali nsolo n’emu eneesigala. Kubanga kitusaanira okuzitwala nga tugenda okusinza Mukama Katonda waffe; kubanga tujja kumala kutuuka eri, ne tulyoka tumanya kye tunaakozesa mu kusinza Mukama.”

2710:27 nny 20; Kuv 4:21Naye Mukama n’akakanyaza omutima gwa Falaawo, n’atabaleka kugenda. 28Falaawo n’agamba Musa nti, “Nva mu maaso! Era weekuume, sikulabanga ng’okomyewo w’endi; bwe ndiddayo okukulaba tolirema kufa.”

2910:29 Beb 11:27Musa n’addamu nti, “Nga bw’ogambye, nange siriddayo kukulaba.”

Exodus 10:1-29

The Plague of Locusts

1Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh. I have made him stubborn. I have also made his officials stubborn so I can perform my signs among them. 2Then you will be able to tell your children and grandchildren how hard I was on the Egyptians. You can tell them I performed my signs among the people of Egypt. And all of you will know that I am the Lord.”

3So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh. They said to him, “The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says, ‘How long will you refuse to obey me? Let my people go. Then they will be able to worship me. 4If you refuse to let them go, I will bring locusts into your country tomorrow. 5They will cover the ground so that it can’t be seen. They will eat what little you have left after the hail. That includes every tree growing in your fields. 6They will fill your houses. They will be in the homes of all your officials and your people. Your parents and your people before them have never seen anything like it as long as they have lived here.’ ” Then Moses turned around and left Pharaoh.

7Pharaoh’s officials said to him, “How long will this man be a trap for us? Let the people go. Then they’ll be able to worship the Lord their God. After everything that’s happened, don’t you realize that Egypt is destroyed?”

8Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. “Go. Worship the Lord your God,” he said. “But tell me who will be going.”

9Moses answered, “We’ll go with our young people and old people. We’ll go with our sons and daughters. We’ll take our flocks and herds. We are supposed to hold a feast to honor the Lord.”

10Pharaoh said, “Suppose I ever let you go, along with your women and children. Then the Lord really will be with all of you! Clearly you are planning to do something bad. 11No! I’ll only allow the men to go and worship the Lord. After all, that’s what you have been asking for.” Then Pharaoh drove Moses and Aaron out of his sight.

12The Lord said to Moses, “Reach out your hand over Egypt so that locusts cover the land. They will eat up everything growing in the fields. They will eat up everything left by the hail.”

13So Moses reached out his walking stick over Egypt. Then the Lord made an east wind blow across the land. It blew all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts. 14Large numbers of them came down in every part of Egypt. There had never been a plague of locusts like it before. And there will never be one like it again. 15The locusts covered the ground until it was black. They ate up everything left after the hail. They ate up everything growing in the fields. They ate up the fruit on the trees. There was nothing green left on any tree or plant in the whole land of Egypt.

16Pharaoh quickly sent for Moses and Aaron. He said, “I have sinned against the Lord your God. I’ve also sinned against you. 17Now forgive my sin one more time. Pray to the Lord your God to take this deadly plague away from me.”

18After Moses left Pharaoh, he prayed to the Lord. 19The Lord changed the wind to a very strong west wind. It picked up the locusts. It blew them into the Red Sea. Not even one locust was left anywhere in Egypt. 20But the Lord made Pharaoh stubborn. So Pharaoh wouldn’t let the people of Israel go.

The Plague of Darkness

21The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, “Reach out your hand toward the sky so that darkness spreads over Egypt. It will be so dark that people can feel it.” 22So Moses reached out his hand toward the sky. Then complete darkness covered Egypt for three days. 23No one could see anyone else or go anywhere for three days. But all the people of Israel had light where they lived.

24Then Pharaoh sent for Moses. He said to him, “Go. Worship the Lord. Even your women and children can go with you. Just leave your flocks and herds behind.”

25But Moses said, “You must allow us to take our animals. We need to offer them as sacrifices and burnt offerings to the Lord our God. 26Our livestock must also go with us. We have to use some of them to worship the Lord our God. We can’t leave even one animal behind. Until we get there, we won’t know what we are supposed to use to worship the Lord.”

27But the Lord made Pharaoh stubborn. So he wouldn’t let the people go. 28Pharaoh said to Moses, “Get out of my sight! Make sure you don’t come to see me again! If you do, you will die.”

29“I’ll do just as you say,” Moses replied. “I will never come to see you again.”
