Eksodus
25 UYehova wathi kuMoses: 2 “Xelela abantu bakwaSirayeli ukuba bandiqokelelele umnikelo; mabawuqokelele kubo bonke abantu abaqhutywa yintliziyo.+ 3 Nanku umnikelo enimele niwamkele kubo: igolide,+ isilivere,+ ikopolo,+ 4 umsonto oluhlaza,* uboya obumsobo,* uboya obubomvu krwe, ilinen yodidi, uboya bebhokhwe, 5 iimfele zeenkunzi zeegusha ezidaywe zabomvu, izikhumba zeentini, imithi yomnga,+ 6 ioli yezibane,+ ioli yebhalsam esetyenziselwa ukuthambisa,+ efakwa nakwisiqhumiso esiqholiweyo,+ 7 amatye eanikis namanye amatye ekuhonjiswa ngawo iefodi+ nesingxobo.*+ 8 Bamele bandenzele indawo engcwele, ukuze ndihlale* phakathi kwabo.+ 9 Intente engcwele nayo yonke impahla yayo, nimele niyenze kanye ngendlela endinibonise ngayo.+
10 “Bamele benze ityeya ngomthi womnga, ubude bayo bube ziikubhite* ezimbini ezinehafu nobubanzi bayo bube yikubhite enehafu nokuphakama kwayo kube yikubhite enehafu.+ 11 Emva koko umele uyityabeke ngegolide esulungekileyo.+ Uze uyityabeke ngaphakathi nangaphandle, uyijikeleze ngomphetho wegolide.+ 12 Yenzele amakhonkco egolide amane, uwafake emilenzeni yayo emine. Amakhonkco amabini mawabe kweli cala layo, aze amanye amabini abe kwelinye. 13 Uze wenze iipali ngomthi womnga, uzityabeke ngegolide.+ 14 Ezo pali umele uzifake kuloo makhonkco asemacaleni eTyeya ukuze ithwalwe ngazo. 15 Mazihlale emakhonkcweni eTyeya ezo pali. Mazingakhutshwa kuwo.+ 16 Ngaphakathi kuloo Tyeya, umele ufake uBungqina endiza kukunika bona.+
17 “Uze wenze isivalo ngegolide esulungekileyo, ubude baso bube ziikubhite ezimbini ezinehafu nobubanzi baso bube yikubhite enehafu.+ 18 Umele wenze neekherubhi ezimbini ngegolide. Zenze ngokuzikhanda zibe seziphelweni zesivalo.+ 19 Zenze ezo kherubhi zibe seziphelweni zozibini, enye kweli cala lesivalo ize enye ibe kweliya. 20 Ezo kherubhi zimele ziwolulele phezulu amaphiko azo, zogqume isivalo ngamaphiko azo,+ zijongene. Ubuso beekherubhi mabujonge kwisivalo. 21 Uze uyivale iTyeya ngeso sivalo,+ ufake uBungqina endiza kukunika bona kuyo. 22 Ndiza kuzityhila kuwe apho, ndize ndithethe nawe ndiphezu kwesivalo seTyeya.+ Ndiza kukuxelela yonke imiyalelo endiza kuyinika amaSirayeli, ndiphakathi kwezo kherubhi zimbini eziphezu kwetyeya yoBungqina.
23 “Umele wenze netafile+ ngomthi womnga, ubude bayo bube ziikubhite ezimbini, bube yikubhite ububanzi bayo, ukuphakama kwayo kube yikubhite enehafu.+ 24 Uze uyityabeke ngegolide esulungekileyo, uyijikeleze ngomphetho wegolide. 25 Umele uyenzele ungqameko oluyijikelezileyo lube nobubanzi obungangobubanzi besandla,* nomphetho wegolide ojikeleze olo ngqameko. 26 Yenzele amakhonkco egolide amane uze uwafake ezikoneni zone, ecaleni kwemilenze emine. 27 Mawabe kufutshane nongqameko, ukuze iipali zokuthwala itafile zingene kuwo. 28 Ezo pali uze uzenze ngomthi womnga, uzityabeke ngegolide, ize ithwalwe ngazo itafile.
29 “Loo tafile uze uyenzele izitya, iindebe, imiphanda nezitya ekuza kugalelwa ngazo iminikelo eselwayo. Umele uzenze ngegolide esulungekileyo.+ 30 Umele uhlale ubeke phambi kwam izonka zokubonisa kuloo tafile.+
31 “Umele wenze isiphatho sezibane+ ngegolide esulungekileyo. Eso siphatho senze ngokusikhanda. Umzantsi waso, isiqu, amasebe, iindebe, amaqhuma neentyatyambo umele uzenze zibe yinto enye.+ 32 Masibe namasebe amathandathu aphuma emacaleni apha kuso. Amathathu kuloo masebe makaye cala-nye, aze amanye amathathu aye kwelinye. 33 Yenza iindebe ezintathu ezimile okweentyatyambo zom-amangile kumasebe aya kwicala elinye. Yenza loo masebe abe namaqhuma neentyatyambo, iqhuma ngalinye lilandelwa yintyatyambo. Uze wenze okufanayo nakumasebe aya kwelinye icala. Makenziwe ngolu hlobo amasebe amathandathu, esuka esiqwini sesi siphatho. 34 Isiqu seso siphatho masibe neendebe ezine ezimile okweentyatyambo zom-amangile, sibe namaqhuma neentyatyambo, qhuma ngalinye lilandelwa yintyatyambo. 35 Makubekho iqhuma elinye ezantsi kwamasebe amabini okuqala aphuma esiqwini, nelinye iqhuma ezantsi kwamanye amasebe amabini aphume kwelinye icala lesiqu sesiphatho sezibane, nelinye iqhuma ezantsi kwamanye amasebe amabini aphume kwelinye icala. Yenza loo nto kuwo onke amasebe amathandathu aphuma esiqwini seso siphatho. 36 Amaqhuma namasebe naso sonke eso siphatho mazenziwe ngegolide esulungekileyo, zibe yinto enye ekhandiweyo.+ 37 Uze usenzele izibane ezisixhenxe. Kuza kuthi xa ezo zibane zilayitiwe, zikhanyise indawo ephambi kwazo.+ 38 Imicephe yokucima umlilo* kunye nezitya zomlilo mazibe zezegolide esulungekileyo.+ 39 Esi siphatho sezibane nezinto zaso, masenziwe ngetalente* yegolide esulungekileyo. 40 Uze uqinisekise ukuba uzenza kanye ngendlela owayiboniswayo entabeni.+
