Ngokwesithembiso sikaThixo, wazalelwa unyana kaIsake, waza wazala uIsake unyana kaIsake. UYakobi wayenamadodana angama-12, omnye wabo nguYosefu. Abazalwana bekhwele babethengisa ebukhosini eYiputa, apho uYosefu wayephumelele kakhulu emehlweni kaFaro olawulayo ngaloo mihla. Kwaye, emva kwexeshana, emazweni onke azungezile, ngaphandle kweYiputa, kwaqala ukulamba, uYakobi noonyana bakhe bathuthela khona.

Kodwa uNdikhoyo akazange abashiye abantu bakhe waza wabathuma uMoses no-Aroni umntakwabo ukuba abaholele ekuthinjweni kwaseYiputa. Kwangexesha elide uFaro akazange afune ukuyeka ukuhamba kwamakhoboka akhe kwaye, nangona zijeziso ezithunyelwa nguThixo, akazange aziphulaphule iindwendwe zamaYuda. Ngoko uThixo wawayalela amaSirayeli ukuba abulale amawundlu angancinci kwaye, xa ewalungiselele, ukuba adle ubusuku kuze kube sekuseni, kwaye igazi lala maagusha agcoba iingcango zamakhaya abo. Ebusuku, ngeli xesha amaYiputa elele, kwaye amaYuda ayemthobela umthetho kaThixo, iingelosi zadlula eYiputa zaza zabulala zonke izizukulwana zaseYiputa zivela kwiinkomo kubantu. Ngenxa yokoyika, uFaro wawagxotha ukuba axoshe amaYuda eYiputa. Kodwa emva kwexesha wafika engqondweni yakhe waza wazisola ngezinto azenzileyo. Amagosa noFaro ngokwakhe baqhubela phambili. Kodwa uThixo wabakhokela abantu bakhe emanzini oLwandle Olubomvu, kwaye iintshaba zabo zanyuka emanzini akhe. Ukususela ngoko, amaSirayeli ayigubha iPasika rhoqo ngonyaka, njengosuku lokukhululwa kwawo ebukhosini baseYiputa.
