Tsono tikukupemphani kuti mutilole tipite pa ulendo wa masiku atatu mʼchipululu kuti tikapereke nsembe kwa Yehova Mulungu wathu.’ ¹⁹ Koma Ine ndikudziwa kuti mfumu ya Igupto sikakulolani kuti mupite pokhapokha Ine nditayikakamiza. ²⁰ Tsono Ine ndidzatambasula dzanja langa ndi kukantha Aigupto ndi zodabwitsa zanga zimene ndidzazichita pakati pawo. Zikadzatha izi, Iye adzakulolani kuti mupite.

Ndipo potero mudzawalanda zonse Aiguptowo.”
