Isithasiselo semithetho yeminikelo neyezipho zolibo
1UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:
2Yisho kubantwana bakwaIsrayeli, uthi kubo: Nxa nifika ezweni eniyakwakha kulo, engininika lona,
3nenze umnikelo womlilo kuJehova, umnikelo wokushiswa, noma umhlatshelo wokugcwalisa isithembiso, noma umnikelo wesihle, noma owemikhosi yenu emisiweyo, ukwenza iphunga elimnandi kuJehova, owezinkomo noma owezimvu,
4khona-ke onikela ngomnikelo wakhe woletha kuJehova umnikelo wempuphu wokweshumi kwempuphu ecolekileyo exovwé nokwesine kwehini* lamafutha;
5newayini libe-ngumnikelo wokuphuzwa, okwesine kwehini* ngemvana inye, wolilungisela umnikelo wokushiswa noma umhlatshelo.
6Kepha inqama uyakuyilungisela okweshumi okubili kwempuphu ecolekileyo exovwé nokwesithathu kwehini* lamafutha, kube-ngumnikelo wempuphu;
7uyakunikela okwesithathu kwehini lewayini libe-ngumnikelo wokuphuzwa nephunga elimnandi kuJehova.
8Nxa ulungisa iduna libe-ngumnikelo wokushiswa, noma umhlatshelo wokugcwalisa isithembiso, noma kube-yiminikelo yokuthula kuJehova,
9uyakunikela ngomnikelo wempuphu wokweshumi okuthathu kwempuphu ecolekileyo exovwé nenxenye yehini* lamafutha kanye neduna.
10Uyakunikela ngenxenye yehini* lewayini libe-ngumnikelo wokuphuzwa, kube-ngumnikelo womlilo wephunga elimnandi kuJehova.
11Kuyakwenziwa kanjalo ngaleyo naleyonkunzi, noma ngaleyo naleyonqama, noma ngaleyo naleyomvana yeduna, noma ngamazinyane ezimbuzi.
12Njengokomumo eniwulungisayo niyakwenze njalo kuleyo naleyo njengokomumo wazo.
13Bonke abokuzalwa ekhaya bayakwenza lezozinto ngaleyondlela, benikela ngomnikelo womlilo wephunga elimnandi kuJehova.
14Uma umfokazi egogobele kuwe, noma ubani ophakathi kwenu ezizukulwaneni zenu eyakunikela ngomnikelo womlilo wephunga elimnandi kuJehova, uyakwenza njengalokhu nenza nina.
15Ebandleni kuyakuba-yisimiso sinye kini nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo kini, isimiso esiphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu; njengani uyakuba-njalo umfokazi phambi kukaJehova.
16Kuyakuba-ngumthetho munye nesimiso sinye kinina nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo kini.
17UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:
18Yisho kubantwana bakwaIsrayeli, uthi kubo: Nxa nifika ezweni enginiyisa kulo,
19kuyakuthi, lapho nidla isinkwa sezwe, ninikele ngomnikelo wokuphakanyiswa kuJehova.
20Ngolibo lomgqakazo wenu niyakunikela ngeqebelengwane libe-ngumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa; njengalokhu nenza umnikelo wokuphakanyiswa wesibuya, niyakuwenza kanjalo.
21Ngolibo lomgqakazo wenu niyakunika uJehova umnikelo wokuphakanyiswa ezizukulwaneni zenu.
22Nxa niduka ningagcini yonke lemiyalo uJehova ayikhulumile kuMose,
23konke uJehova aniyalile ngesandla sikaMose, kusukela osukwini uJehova ayala ngalo nangasemuva ezizukulwaneni zenu,
24kuyakuthi uma kwenziwe kungengamabomu, futhi kungesemehlweni enhlangano, inhlangano yonke inikele ngeduna libe-ngumnikelo wokushiswa wephunga elimnandi kuJehova kanye nomnikelo wayo wempuphu, nomnikelo wayo wokuphuzwa ngokomthetho, nempongo ibenye, ibe-ngumnikelo wesono.
25Umpristi uyakuyenzela yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwaIsrayeli ukubuyisana, baze bathethelelwe, ngokuba kwakungengamabomu, futhi balethile umnikelo wabo, umnikelo womlilo kuJehova, nomnikelo wabo wesono phambi kukaJehova ngesiphosiso sabo;
26yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwaIsrayeli iyakuthethelelwa kanye nomfokazi ogogobeleyo kubo, ngokuba kubo bonke abantu kwakungesiphosiso.
27Uma umuntu ona kungengamabomu, uyakunikela ngembuzikazi enomnyaka munye, ibe-ngumnikelo wesono.
28Umpristi uyakwenzela umuntu ophosisayo ukubuyisana, nxa ona kungengamabomu phambi kukaJehova ukumenzela ukubuyisana, athethelelwe.
29Niyakuba-nomthetho munye kokwenza kungengamabomu, nakowokuzalwa ekhaya phakathi kwabantwana bakwaIsrayeli nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo.
30Kepha okwenza ngesandla esiphakemeyo, noma engowokuzalwa ekhaya noma engumfokazi, uyamhlambalaza uJehova; lowomuntu uyakunqunywa kubantu bakubo.
31Ngokuba udelele izwi likaJehova, nomyalo wakhe uwaphulile; lowomuntu uyakunqunywa impela, ububi bakhe bube-phezu kwakhe.
Ukukhandwa ngamatshe kowaphulile umyalelo wesabatha
32Abantwana bakwaIsrayeli besesehlane bafumana umuntu otheza izinkuni ngosuku lwesabatha.
33Abamfumana etheza izinkuni bamyisa kuMose nakuAroni nakuyo yonke inhlangano.
34Bambeka ukuba alindwe, ngokuba kwakungakanqunywa ukuthi kuyakwenziwani kuye.
35UJehova wathi kuMose: Lowomuntu wobulawa nokubulawa; yonke inhlangano iyakumkhanda ngamatshe ngaphandle kwekamu*.
36Yonke inhlangano yamkhiphela ngaphandle kwekamu*, yamkhanda ngamatshe, wafa, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.
Isimiso sezinsephe ezingutsheni zabakwaIsrayeli
37UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:
38Yisho kubantwana bakwaIsrayeli, usho kubo ukuba bazenzele insephe emiphethweni yezingubo zabo ezizukulwaneni zabo, futhi ukuba babeke igoda eliluhlaza ensepheni yemiphetho yonke;
39lokhu kuyakuba-kini insephe ukuba niyibheke, nikhumbule yonke imiyalo kaJehova, niyenze, ningahambi ngeyenu inhliziyo nangawenu amehlo enanivama ukukulandela ngokuphinga,
40ukuba nikhumbule, niyenze yonke imiyalo yami, nibe-ngcwele kuNkulunkulu wenu.
41NginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu owanikhipha ezweni laseGibithe, ngibenguNkulunkulu wenu; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.
