20 UNkulunkulu wasekhuluma wonke amazwi la wathi:+
2 “NginguJehova uNkulunkulu wakho owakukhipha elizweni laseGibhithe, elizweni lobugqili.+ 3 Akumelanga ube labanye onkulunkulu ngaphandle kwami.*+
4 “Akumelanga uzenzele isithombe esibaziweyo kumbe isithombe saloba yini ephezulu emazulwini loba emhlabeni phansi kumbe esemanzini ngaphansi komhlaba.+ 5 Akumelanga ukhothamele izinto lezi kumbe uhugwe ukuthi uzikhonze+ ngoba mina Jehova uNkulunkulu wakho, nginguNkulunkulu ofuna umuntu azinikele kimi kuphela+ njalo ojezisa amadodana ngenxa yamacala aboyise kuze kufike kusizukulwane sesithathu lesesine salabo abangizondayo, 6 kodwa ngiba lothando oluqotho kuzizukulwane eziyinkulungwane zalabo abangithandayo njalo abagcina imithetho yami.+
7 “Akumelanga ulisebenzise kubi* ibizo likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho+ ngoba uJehova kasoze ayekele ukujezisa loba ngubani olisebenzisa kubi ibizo lakhe.+
8 “Khumbula ilanga leSabatha uligcine lingcwele.+ 9 Kumele usebenze amalanga ayisithupha uqede yonke imisebenzi yakho,+ 10 kodwa ilanga lesikhombisa lisabatha likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho. Akumelanga wenze loba yiwuphi umsebenzi, wena lendodana yakho, lendodakazi yakho, lesigqili sakho lesigqilikazi sakho kumbe isifuyo sakho loba umuntu wesinye isizwe ohlala lawe,*+ 11 ngoba ngamalanga ayisithupha uJehova wenza amazulu, lomhlaba, lolwandle lakho konke okukukho, waseqalisa ukuphumula ngelanga lesikhombisa.+ Yikho uJehova walibusisa ilanga leSabatha walenza laba ngcwele.
12 “Hlonipha uyihlo lonyoko+ ukuze uphile isikhathi eside elizweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akupha lona.+
13 “Ungabulali.+
14 “Ungafebi.+
15 “Ungatshontshi.+
16 “Ungafakazi amanga ngomakhelwane wakho.*+
17 “Ungahawukeli indlu kamakhelwane wakho. Ungahawukeli umfazi kamakhelwane wakho,+ kumbe isigqili sakhe loba isigqilikazi sakhe, loba inkunzi yakhe loba ubabhemi wakhe, lakho konke nje okungokwakhe.”+
18 Abantu bonke bathi besizwa umdumo wezulu, bebona lombane, besizwa lomsindo wophondo futhi bebona lentuthu ithunqa entabeni, batshaywa luvalo, bamela khatshana.+ 19 Ngakho bathi kuMosi: “Wena khuluma lathi sizalalela, akungabi nguNkulunkulu okhuluma lathi ngoba sesaba ukuthi sizakufa.”+ 20 UMosi wasesithi ebantwini: “Lingesabi ngoba uNkulunkulu weqiniso uzolilinga+ ukwenzela ukuthi liqhubeke limesaba ukuze lingoni.”+ 21 Ngakho abantu babelokhu bemele khatshana kodwa uMosi wasondela eduze kweyezi elimnyama lapho okwakuloNkulunkulu weqiniso khona.+
22 UJehova wasesithi kuMosi: “Nanku okumele ukutshele abako-Israyeli, ‘Lizibonele ngawenu ukuthi ngikhulume lani ngisezulwini.+ 23 Akumelanga lenze onkulunkulu besiliva loba abegolide ngoba akumelanga libe labanye onkulunkulu ngaphandle kwami.+ 24 Kumele ungenzele i-alithare ngenhlabathi njalo yilo ozahlabela kulo iminikelo yokutshiswa, lemihlatshelo yobudlelwano,* evela emihlambini yakho yezimvu leyenkomo. Kuloba yiphi indawo engizakwenza ukuthi ibizo lami likhunjulwe khona+ ngizakuza kuwe futhi ngizakubusisa. 25 Nxa ungangenzela i-alithare ngamatshe, akumelanga ulakhe ngamatshe abazwe ngamathuluzi,+ ngoba ungasebenzisa itshizela yakho kulo uzalingcolisa. 26 Kanti njalo ungaqansi ngamasitephisi phezu kwe-alithare lami ukuze izitho zakho zensitha zingabi* segcekeni phezu kwalo.’
