19 Mo kgweding ya boraro fa Baiseraele ba sena go tswa kwa lefatsheng la Egepeto, ba ne ba goroga mo nageng ya Sinai. 2 Ba ne ba tswa mo Refidime+ ba goroga mo nageng ya Sinai mo letsatsing le le lengwe mme ba nna mo nageng. Baiseraele ba ne ba kampa gaufi le thaba ya Sinai.+

3 Go tswa foo, Moshe o ne a tlhatlogela kwa Modimong wa boammaaruri, mme Jehofa a mmitsa go tswa mo thabeng,+ a re: “Seno ke se o tla se bolelelang ditlogolwana tsa ga Jakobe le Baiseraele, 4 ‘Lo bone se ke se dirileng Baegepeto,+ e le gore ke lo tshole ka diphuka tsa bontsu ke lo tlise kwa go nna.+ 5 Jaanong fa lo ka reetsa lentswe la me ka kelotlhoko lo bo lo boloka kgolagano ya me, ruri lo tla nna batho ba me ba ba kgethegileng* go tswa mo ditšhabeng tsotlhe+ ka gonne lefatshe lotlhe ke la me.+ 6 Lo tla nna bogosi jwa me jwa baperesiti le setšhaba sa me se se boitshepo.’+ Ano ke mafoko a o tla a bolelelang Baiseraele.”

7 Ka jalo, Moshe o ne a tsamaya mme a bitsa bagolwane ba setšhaba a bo a ba bolelela mafoko ano otlhe a Jehofa a neng a a mmoleletse.+ 8 Morago ga moo, batho botlhe ba ne ba araba ba le seoposengwe ba re: “Re ikemiseditse go dira sotlhe se Jehofa a se buileng.”+ Ka yone nako eo, Moshe o ne a ya go bolelela Jehofa kafa batho ba arabileng ka gone. 9 Mme Jehofa o ne a raya Moshe a re: “Ke tla kwa go wena mo lerung le lentsho gore batho ba tle ba utlwe fa ke bua le wena le gore ka metlha ba tle ba dumele le mo go wena.” Foo Moshe o ne a begela Jehofa mafoko a batho ba neng ba a buile.

10 Go tswa foo, Jehofa o ne a raya Moshe a re: “Ya kwa bathong, o ba baakanyetse kobamelo gompieno le kamoso, mme ba tshwanetse go tlhatswa diaparo tsa bone. 11 Ba tshwanetse go ipaakanyetsa letsatsi la boraro ka gonne mo letsatsing la boraro Jehofa o tla fologela mo Thabeng ya Sinai fa pele ga matlho a batho botlhe. 12 O tshwanetse go beela batho melelwane go dikologa thaba mme o ba reye o re, ‘Lo se ka lwa tlhatlogela kwa godimo ga thaba kgotsa lwa tshwara melelwane ya yone. Ope fela yo o tshwarang thaba ruri o tla bolawa. 13 A seatla sepe se se ka sa mo tshwara, ka gonne o tla kgobotlediwa ka maje kgotsa o tla hulwa.* E ka tswa e le phologolo kgotsa motho, ga a kitla a tshela.’+ Ba ka nna ba tla mo thabeng fa ba utlwa modumo wa lonaka lwa phelefu.”+

14 Foo Moshe o ne a fologa thaba a ya kwa bathong a bo a simolola go ba baakanyetsa kobamelo, mme ba ne ba tlhatswa diaparo tsa bone.+ 15 O ne a raya batho a re: “Ipaakanyetseng letsatsi la boraro. Lo se ka lwa tlhakanela dikobo.”*

16 Mo mosong wa letsatsi la boraro go ne ga nna le ditumo tsa maru le dikgadima e bile go ne go na le leru le le kwenneng+ mo thabeng le modumo o o kwa godimo thata wa lonaka, mme batho botlhe ba ba neng ba le mo kampeng ba simolola go roroma.+ 17 Jaanong Moshe o ne a ntshetsa batho kwa ntle ga kampa gore ba ye go kopana le Modimo wa boammaaruri, mme ba ne ba ema fa tlase ga thaba. 18 Thaba ya Sinai e ne ya kua mosi gotlhe fela ka gonne Jehofa o ne a fologetse mo go yone a le mo molelong;+ mosi wa yone o ne o tlhatloga jaaka mosi wa bobesetso, mme thaba yotlhe e ne e roroma fela thata.+ 19 Fa modumo wa lonaka o ntse o oketsega, Moshe o ne a bua mme lentswe la Modimo wa boammaaruri la mo araba.

20 Ka jalo, Jehofa o ne a fologela mo godimo ga Thaba ya Sinai. Go tswa foo, Jehofa a biletsa Moshe kwa godimo ga thaba, mme Moshe a tlhatlogela kwa godimo ga thaba.+ 21 Jaanong Jehofa o ne a raya Moshe a re: “Fologa, mme o tlhagise batho gore ba se ka ba leka go tla go bona Jehofa, go seng jalo ba tla swa ka bontsi. 22 Mme a baperesiti ba ba atamelang Jehofa ka metlha, ba ipaakanyetse kobamelo gore Jehofa a se ka a ba bolaya.”*+ 23 Foo Moshe o ne a raya Jehofa a re: “Batho ba ka se tlhatlogele mo Thabeng ya Sinai ka gonne o setse o re tlhagisitse, o re, ‘Baya melelwane go dikologa thaba o bo o e dira boitshepo.’”+ 24 Le fa go ntse jalo, Jehofa o ne a mo raya a re: “Tsamaya, fologa, mme fa o boa o tle le Arone, mme o se ka wa letla baperesiti le batho go tla go bona Jehofa gore a se ka a ba bolaya.”+ 25 Ka jalo, Moshe o ne a fologela kwa bathong mme a ba bolelela se Modimo a se buileng.
