11 UMose wayesethi kuNkulunkulu: “Ngingubani mina ukuba ngiye kuFaro, ngikhiphe eGibithe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli na?”
12 Wathi: “Ngizakuba nawe ngempela; lokhu kuyakuba luphawu kuwe ukuthi ngikuthumile; nxa ukhiphile isizwe eGibithe, niyakumkhonza uNkulunkulu kule ntaba.”
13 UMose wayesethi kuNkulunkulu: “Bheka lapho ngifika kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ngithi kubo: ‘UNkulunkulu wawoyihlo ungithumile kini,’ bese bethi kimi: ‘Ngubani igama lakhe?’ ngizakuthini kubo na?”
14 UNkulunkulu wathi kuMose: “Nginguye enginguye.” Wathi: “Uzakusho njalo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘UNgikhona* ungithumile.’ ”
15 UNkulunkulu wathi futhi kuMose: “Uzakusho njalo kubo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe, ungithumile kini.’ Yileli eliyigama lami kuze kube phakade, lesi siyisikhumbuzo sami ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane.
16 “Hamba ubuthe amalunga akwa-Israyeli, uthi kuwo: ‘UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama noka-Isaka nokaJakobe, ubonakele kimi, wathi: Nginihambele nokunihambela, ngibonile okwenziwa kini eGibithe.
17 Ngishilo ngathi: Ngiyakunikhuphula ekuhluphekeni kwaseGibithe, nginiyise ezweni lamaKhanani, nelamaHeti, nelama-Amori, nelamaPherizi, nelamaHivi, nelamaJebusi, izwe elichichima ubisi nezinyosi.’
