11 Nje-ke uJehova wathi kuMosi no-Aroni: 2 “Tjelani ama-Israyeli nithi, ‘Lezi ziinlwana zephasini eningazidla:+ 3 Zoke iinlwana ezihlukanisa iinqatha kabili begodu ezetjisako ningazidla.
4 “‘Kodwana lezi ziinlwana okungakafuzi nizidle, ezihlangana neenlwana ezetjisako namkha ezihlukanisa iinqatha kabili: likamela liyetjisa kodwana alihlukanisa iinqatha kabili. Lisilaphele kini.+ 5 Imbila ngombana iyetjisa+ kodwana ayikahlukanisi iinqatha kabili. Isilaphele kini. 6 Umqasa ngombana uyetjisa kodwana awukahlukanisi iinqatha kabili. Usilaphele kini. 7 Ifarigi+ ngombana ihlukanisa iinqatha kabili kodwana ayetjisi. Isilaphele kini. 8 Akukafuzi nidle inyamazo namkha nithinte iindumbu zazo. Zisilaphele kini.+
9 “‘Lezi ziinlwana zemanzini eningazidla: Nanyana ngisiphi isilwana esingemanzini esineengwedlo neempepha, kungaba ngelwandle namkha ngemlanjeni, ningasidla.+ 10 Zoke iinlwana zelwandle namkha zemlanjeni kuhlanganise iinlwana ezincani zephasini ezihlala ndawonye zenze iinqhema, iinlwana ezinganangwedlo neempepha kufuze ziqalwe njengezisilapheleko. 11 Kufuze zibe ngezisilapheleko kini, akukafuzi nidle inyamazo+ begodu kufuze ninyenye iindumbu zazo. 12 Koke okusemanzini okunganangwedlo neempepha kusilaphele kini.
13 “‘Lezi ziinlwana eziphaphako okufuze nizinyenye, akukafuzi zidliwe ngombana zisilaphele: Ikhozi, nekhozi+ elidla iinhlambi, idlanga+ elinzima, 14 ikhozi elibomvu, nayo yoke imihlobo yamakhozi anzima, 15 yoke imihlobo yamagubulu, 16 inciliba, isikhova, inyoni yelwandle, yoke imihlobo yamakhozi, 17 isikhova esincani, ikhomoranti,* isikhova esineendlebe ezide, 18 idada, igubulu, idlanga, 19 udoyi, yoke imihlobo yamakhwalimanzi, inukani nomaphelaphelani. 20 Zoke iinunwana ezinamaphiko ezikhamba ngeenyawo ezine zisilaphele kini.
21 “‘Eenunwaneni ezinamaphiko ezikhamba ngeenyawo ezine, ningadla kwaphela lezo ezinemilenze emibili emide, ezeqayeqa ngayo ehlabathini. 22 Nanzi eningazidla: imihlobohlobo yeentethe ezifudukako, ezinye iintethe ezijayekileko,+ abotswiritswiri nezinye iintethe. 23 Zoke iinunwana ezinamaphiko ezikhamba ngeenyawo ezine ziyanyenyisa kini. 24 Ngokuzidla nizozenza nisilaphale. Nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo uzokusilaphala bekube sentambama.+ 25 Nanyana ngubani oguga iindumbu zazo, kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe,+ uzokusilaphala bekube sentambama.
26 “‘Nanyana ngisiphi isilwana esihlukanisa iinqatha kabili kodwana singabi nesikhala phakathi begodu singetjisi, sisilaphele kini. Nanyana ngubani ozithintako uzokusilaphala.+ 27 Zoke iinlwana ezineendlawu, ezikhamba ngeenyawo ezine zisilaphele kini. Nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo uzokusiphala bekube sentambama. 28 Nanyana ngubani oguga iindumbu zazo, kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe+ begodu uzokusilaphala bekube sentambama.+ Zisilaphele kini.
29 “‘Lezi ziinlwana ezincani zephasini ezisilapheleko kini: ifukwana, ikhondlo,+ yoke imihlobo yeembhadwa, 30 umarhwarhwambayi, isibhadwa esikhulu, urhwabhani, isibhadwa sehlabathini nenwabu. 31 Iinlwanezi ezincani zephasini zisilaphele kini.+ Nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo, uzokusilaphala bekube sentambama.+
32 “‘Nanyana yini iinlwanezi eziwela phezu kwayo nazifako izokusilaphala, kungaba sisitja esenziwe ngesigodo, sisambatho, sikhumba namkha isiqetjhana somgodla. Nanyana ngisiphi isitja esisetjenziswako, kufuze sifakwe ngemanzini, sizokusilaphala bekube sentambama, ngemva kwalokho sizokuhlwengeka. 33 Nangabe ziwela esitjeni esenziwe ngomdaka,* kufuze nisiphadlhe nanyana yini ebeyingakiso izokuba ngesilapheleko.+ 34 Nanyana ngikuphi ukudla okuthintana namanzi ebewasesitjeneso kuzokuba ngokusilapheleko nanyana yini eselwako esesitjeneso izokuba ngesilapheleko. 35 Nanyana yini iindumbu zeenlwanezo eziwela phezu kwayo izokusilaphala. Kungaba yi-ondo namkha isitofu esincani, kufuze siphadlhwe sibe ziinquqwana. Zisilaphele begodu zizokuhlala zisilaphele njalo kini. 36 Mthombo nepetsi kwaphela ezizokuhlala zihlwengile kodwana nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo uzokusilaphala. 37 Nangabe iindumbu zazo ziwela embewini esazokutjalwa ihlwengile. 38 Kodwana nangabe imbewu ithelwe ngamanzi begodu ingcenye yeendumbu zazo iwela kiyo, imbewu leyo isilaphele kini.
39 “‘Nangabe isilwana enivumeleke ukusidla sifa nanyana ngubani othinta isidumbu saso, uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekube sentambama.+ 40 Nanyana ngubani odla inyama yesilwana esifilekwesi kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe begodu uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekube sentambama.+ Nanyana ngubani oguga isidumbu saso, kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe begodu uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekube sentambama. 41 Zoke iinlwana ezincani zephasini ziyinto enyenyisako.+ Kufuze zingadliwa. 42 Akukafuzi nidle nanyana ngisiphi isilwana esirhurhubako, nanyana ngisiphi isilwana esikhamba ngeenyawo ezine, namkha nanyana ngisiphi isilwana esincani sephasini esinemilenze eminengi ngombana ziyinto enyenyisako.+ 43 Ningazenzi bona ninyenyise ngokudla nanyana ngiziphi iinlwana ezincani begodu ningazisilaphazi nibe ngabasilapheleko ngebanga lazo.+ 44 Ngombana nginguJehova uZimenu+ begodu kufuze nizicwengise, nibe ngabacwengileko+ ngombana mina ngicwengile.+ Ningazisilaphazi ngokudla nanyana ngiziphi iinlwana ezincani ezikhambakhamba ephasini. 45 Ngombana nginguJehova onikhupha enarheni yeGibhide bona nginitjengise ukuthi nginguZimenu+ begodu kufuze nicwengeke+ ngombana ngicwengile.+
46 “‘Lo mthetho omalungana neenlwana, iinlwana eziphaphako, zoke iinlwana ezikhambakhambako emanzini nomalungana nazo zoke iinlwana ezincani zephasini, 47 ukwenzela bona kube nomehluko hlangana kokusilapheleko nokuhlwengileko nahlangana neenlwana ezingadliwako nalezo okungafuzi zidliwe.’”+
