15 UJehova wayesethi kuMose: “Ukhalelani kimi na? Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bahambe.
16 Phakamisa wena induku yakho, welule isandla sakho phezu kolwandle, ulwahlukanise; abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bazakuhamba phakathi kolwandle emhlabathini owomileyo.
17 Bheka, mina ngiyakuzenza lukhuni izinhliziyo zabaseGibithe, babalandele; ngizakudunyiswa ngoFaro nangempi yakhe yonke, ngezinqola zakhe nangabamahhashi bakhe.
18 AbaseGibithe bazakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova, nxa ngidunyisiwe ngoFaro, ngezinqola zakhe nangabamahhashi bakhe.”
19 Ingelosi kaNkulunkulu eyayihambile phambi kwempi ka-Israyeli yasuka yahamba emva kwabo, nensika yefu yasuka phambi kwabo, yema emva kwabo.
20 Yafika phakathi kwempi yaseGibithe nempi yakwa-Israyeli; kwakukhona ifu nobumnyama, noma ikhanya ebusuku, ukuze izimpi zingakwazi ukusondelana ubusuku bonke.
21 UMose wayeselula isandla sakhe phezu kolwandle; uJehova wamukisa amanzi ngomoya onamandla wasempumalanga ubusuku bonke, waphendula ulwandle lwaba ngumhlabathi owomileyo, amanzi ahlukana.
