15 Ngokuba sasibekela ubuso bonke bomhlaba, laze laba mnyama izwe. Sadla imifino yonke nezithelo zonke zemithi ezishiywe yisichotho; akwasala lutho oluluhlaza emithini nasemifinweni yasendle ezweni lonke laseGibithe.
16 Khona uFaro washesha wababiza oMose no-Aroni, wathi: “Ngonile kuJehova uNkulunkulu wenu nakinina.
17 Ngalokho ake nithethelele isono sami ngalesi sikhathi esisodwa nje, nincenge uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu ukuba asuse kimi lokhu kufa kuphela.”
18 Waphuma kuFaro, wamncenga uJehova.
19 UJehova wayesewuphendula umoya waba ngowasentshonalanga onamandla amakhulu; wona wasusa isikhonyane, wasilahla eLwandle Olubomvu; akwasala sikhonyane nesisodwa ezweni lonke laseGibithe.
20 Kepha uJehova wayenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro, kabavumelanga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bahambe.
21 UJehova wayesethi kuMose: “Yelula isandla sakho ngasezulwini ukuba kube khona ubumnyama ezweni laseGibithe obuphatheka ngesandla.”
