2 Mʼchipululumo gulu lonse linadandaulira Mose ndi Aaroni 3 kuti, “Kukanakhala bwino Yehova akanatiphera mʼdziko la Igupto! Kumeneko timadya nyama ndi buledi mpaka kukhuta, koma inu mwabwera nafe ku chipululu kudzapha mpingo wonsewu ndi njala!”
4 Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Ine ndidzakupatsani buledi wogwa kuchokera kumwamba ngati mvula. Anthu azituluka tsiku lililonse kukatola buledi wokwanira tsiku limenelo. Ine ndidzawayesa mʼnjira imeneyi kuti ndione ngati adzatsatira malangizo anga. 5 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chimodzi, pamene azidzakonza buledi amene abwera naye, adzapeza kuti ndi wokwanira masiku awiri.”
6 Kotero Mose ndi Aaroni anati kwa Aisraeli onse, “Nthawi yamadzulo inu mudzadziwa kuti ndi Yehova amene anakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto. 7 Ndipo mmawa mudzaona ulemerero wa Yehova pakuti wamva kudandaula kwanu. Kodi ife ndi yani kuti muzitidandaulira?” 8 Mose anati, “Yehova adzakupatsani nyama madzulo aliwonse ndi buledi mmawa uliwonse kuti mukhute chifukwa Iye wamva madandawulo anu. Nanga ife ndi yani? Kudandaula kwanu simudandaulira ife, koma Yehova.”
9 Kenaka Mose anawuza Aaroni kuti, “Uza gulu lonse la Aisraeli kuti, ‘Bwerani pamaso pa Yehova pakuti wamva kudandaula kwanu.’ ”
10 Pamene Aaroni amayankhula ndi gulu lonse la Aisraeli, iwo anayangʼana ku chipululu, ndipo ulemerero wa Yehova umaoneka mu mtambo.
11 Yehova anati kwa Mose, 12 “Ine ndamva kudandaula kwa Aisraeli. Awuze kuti, ‘Madzulo mudzadya nyama ndipo mmawa mudzakhuta buledi. Pamenepo mudzadziwa kuti ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’ ”
13 Madzulo amenewo panatuluka zinziri zimene zinali ponseponse pa misasa yawo, ndipo mmawa panali mame kuzungulira misasa yawo. 14 Mamewo atachoka, pa nthaka mʼchipululumo panaoneka tinthu tina topyapyala komanso totuwa ngati chipale. 15 Aisraeli atationa anafunsana wina ndi mnzake nati, “Kodi timeneti nʼchiyani?” Popeza sanatidziwe.
Mose anawawuza kuti, “Uyu ndi buledi amene Yehova wakupatsani kuti mudye.

ndipo anakhala olowamʼmalo a zimene ena anazivutikira,
45 kuti iwo asunge malangizo ake
ndi kutsatira malamulo ake.
