13 Inhliziyo kaFaro yaba lukhuni, kabalalelanga, njengalokho eshilo uJehova.
14 UJehova wayesethi kuMose: “Inhliziyo kaFaro ilukhuni: uyenqaba ukuba abantu bahambe.
15 Yana kuFaro kusasa ekuseni; bheka, uyaphuma ukuya emanzini; yima ogwini lomfula ukumhlangabeza; induku eyaphenduka inyoka woyiphatha ngesandla sakho.
16 Wothi kuye: ‘UJehova, uNkulunkulu wamaHeberu, ungithume kuwe, uthi: Bavumele abantu bami ukuba bahambe bangikhonze ehlane; bheka, kuze kube manje awulalelanga.
17 UJehova usho kanje, uthi: Ngalokhu uyokwazi ukuthi nginguJehova: bheka, ngenduku esesandleni sami ngiyakushaya phezu kwamanzi asemfuleni, aphenduke igazi.
18 Izinhlanzi ezisemfuleni ziyakufa, umfula unuke; abaseGibithe bayakunengwa ngukuphuza amanzi emfuleni.’ ”
19 UJehova wathi kuMose: “Yisho ku-Aroni, uthi: ‘Thatha induku yakho, welule isandla sakho phezu kwamanzi aseGibithe, naphezu kwemifula, naphezu kweminonjana yabo, naphezu kweziziba, naphezu kwamachibi amanzi abo onke ukuba aphenduke igazi,’ kube khona igazi ezweni lonke laseGibithe ezitsheni zemithi nasezitsheni zamatshe.”
