Bible Reading Plan – Day 26

₁*UNdikhoyo wayalela uMosis wathi: “Qingqa amanye amacwecwe amatye amabini afana nalawa okuqala, ukuze mna ndiwabhale kuwo amazwi awayebhalwe kulawa wawaphulayo. ₂Ngomso kusasa uze unyuke intaba iSinayi, apho uya kundibona nam khona. ₃Makungabikho mntu uhamba nawe okanye usondelayo nakuliphi na icala lentaba; nditsho kwaiigusha neenkomo mazingasondeli entabeni.” ₄UMosis ke wawaqingqa amacwecwe amabini amatye, waza ngengomso kusasa wenyuka nawo entabeni iSinayi ngokokutsho kukaNdikhoyo, ewaphethe ngezandla.

₅Ke kaloku uNdikhoyo wehla ngelifu, waza wema noMosis apho entabeni, walikhankanya igama lakhe – uNdikhoyo. ₆Waza ke wadlula phambi kwakhe, wandula wathi: “UNdikhoyo nguThixo onemfesane nesisa, oza kade umsindo, ophuphuma izibele nokunyaniseka. ₇Ukunyaniseka kwakhe akujiki nakwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana; abakhohlakeleyo nabanxaxhayo nabonayo uyabaxolela. Kambe ke abanetyala ubohlwaya ade ohlwaye nesizukulwana sabo, aye kufikelela kwesesithathu nakwesesine ngenxa yeziphoso zooyise.”

₈UMosis wasuka wee guqaqa wakhahlela; ₉wambongoza wathi: “Ukuba ngenene ukholisekile ndim, Mhlekazi, sikhaphe. Nakuba siluhlanga oluneenkani nje, buxolele ubugwenxa nesono sethu, samkele sibe lilifa lakho.”

₁₀UNdikhoyo wathi kuMosis: “Ngoku ke ndenza umnqophiso nani. Ndiya kwenza imimangaliso engazange yenziwe ehlabathini liphela, ngokunjalo nakwizizwe zalo. Kaloku mna Ndikhoyo ndiza kwenza into erhwaqelisayo phakathi kwenu. ₁₁Yithobeleni imithetho endininika yona namhlanje. Xa ningenayo ndiya kuwagxotha ama-Amori, amaKanana, amaHiti, amaPerezi, amaHivi, namaJebhusi. ₁₂Ningakhe nilinge nenze izivumelwano naba bantu ningena emhlabeni wabo, kuba ngokwenjenjalo ningazifaka esigwini. ₁₃Ndaweni yaloo nto wadilizeni amaqonga abo amadini, niyifohloze imifanekiso yabo; ke sona *isithixo sabo uAshera ze nisityoboze.

₁₄“Ningaze ninqule thixo wumbi, kuba mna Ndikhoyo ndinguSobukhwele; ndinguThixo onekhwele. ₁₅Sanukwenza zivumelwano nabantu belo lizwe; kuba hleze bathi, xa benqula besenzela izithixo zabo amadini amanyumnyezi, banimeme nani, nilukuhleke, nitye loo madini azo. ₁₆Nani ningasuka nibathathele oonyana benu abafazi kwezo ntombi zabo, zithi ke ngaloo ndlela zibahende banqule izithixo.

₁₇“Ningaze niziqingqele izithixo.

₁₈“Ningaze niyeke ukwenza itheko lesonka sentlama engenagwele. Yenzani njengoko ndaniyalelayo, nitye isonka esinganyuswanga iintsuku zibe sixhenxe kwinyanga ka-Abhibhi. Kaloku leyo yinyanga enaphuma ngayo eJiputa.

₁₉“Unyana wamazibulo ngokunjalo neduna lemfuyo lamazibulo lelam.

₂₀“Ke lona iduna lamazibulo ledonki nolihlawulela ngedini letakane. Kungenjalo ke niya kulaphula ilungu lentamo. Wonke unyana wamazibulo makahlawulelwe.

“Akukho mntu makeze kum engaphathanga mnikelo.

₂₁“Iintsuku ezintandathu evekini zezokwenza wonke umsebenzi wenu. Kodwa ke ngosuku lwesixhenxe ze niphumle; nditsho nkqu nangamaxesha okulima nokuvuna.

₂₂“Xa nivuna ingqolowa yenzani itheko lolibo; kanti ke ningalityesheli netheko lesivuno ngexesha lokuvuna iziqhamo.

₂₃“Onke amadoda makeze kunqula mna Ndikhoyo Thixo kaSirayeli kathathu ngonyaka. ₂₄Ndiya kuzigxotha izizwe phambi kwenu, itsho inabe imida yenu, kungabikho namntu uya kuzama ukulihlutha elo lizwe kuni xa nisiya kundinqula mna Ndikhoyo Thixo wenu ngazo zozithathu ezi zihlandlo enyakeni.

₂₅“Xa nindenzela idini ze ningasisebenzisi isonka sentlama enegwele. Ngexesha letheko *lePasika inyama yedini ize ingabekwa mbeko.

₂₆“Minyaka le zisani ulibo lwesivuno endlwini kaNdikhoyo.

“Ningaze nilipheke ngobisi lukanina itakane lebhokhwe.”

₂₇UNdikhoyo wayalela uMosis wathi: “Wabhale la mazwi. Kaloku umnqophiso wam nani uxhomekeke kuwo.” ₂₈Ke kaloku uMosis wahlala apho iintsuku ezingamashumi amane engatyi engaseli. Amazwi omnqophiso wawabhala apho emacwecweni, oko kukuthi imithetho elishumi.

₂₉Ukubuya kwakhe entabeni uMosis ephethe loo mithetho ilishumi, ubuso bakhe babukhazimla, kuba ethethe *noNdikhoyo; kambe ke yena wayengayiqondi loo nto. ₃₀UAron namaSirayeli onke babubona ukuba ubuso bakhe buyakhazimla, batsho boyika ukusondela kuye. ₃₁Kodwa uMosis wababiza, waza uAron nazo zonke iinkokheli zamaSirayeli beza kuye, waza wathetha nabo. ₃₂Kamva ke onke amaSirayeli aqokelelana kuMosis, waza ke wawaxelela yonke imiyalelo ayinikwe nguNdikhoyo entabeni iSinayi. ₃₃Wathi ke akugqiba ukuthetha nabo uMosis, wabufaka isigqubuthelo ubuso bakhe. ₃₄Wayesithi xa eza kuthetha noNdikhoyo asisuse isigqubuthelo. Ekubuyeni kwakhe ke wayewaxelela konke akuyalelwe nguNdikhoyo amaSirayeli. ₃₅Wona ke ayebubona ukuba ubuso bakhe buyakhazimla. Kambe ke wayeye afake isigqubuthelo, ade aphinde kwakhona aye kuthetha noNdikhoyo.

₁UMosis waliqokelela lonke ibandla lamaSirayeli, wathi: “Nantsi imiyalelo *kaNdikhoyo: ₂iintsuku zokusebenza imisebenzi yenu zintandathu evekini, kodwa lona usuku lwesixhenxe ngumhla owodwa okhethekileyo; ngumhla kaNdikhoyo, umhla wokuphumla. Nabani na ke owenza nawuphi na umsebenzi ngawo wobulawa. ₃Ngawo akunakubaswa nomlilo lo emizini yenu.”

₄UMosis waliyalela lonke ibandla lamaSirayeli, wathi: “*UNdikhoyo uthi ₅wonke umntu oziva elangazelela ukunikela kuye makathathe kwinto anayo: igolide, isiliva, ubhedu, ₆nelaphu elihle, elizuba, elimsobo, nelibomvu, nelaphu loboya bebhokhwe, ₇nofele lwenkunzi yegusha olubomvu, nesikhumba esisukiweyo; nomngampunzi, ₈neoyile yezibane, nobulawu bokuqhola ioyile nokuqhola isiqhumiso sitsho sibe nevumba elimnandi; ₉amatye ekarneli namanye amatye exabiso okuhombisa *isidanga nesikhuselo-sifuba sombingeleli omkhulu.”

₁₀Waqhuba uMosis wathi: “Onke amagcisa omsebenzi wezandla akhoyo phakathi kwenu makeze azokwenza *isibingelelo nezinto ayalele ukuba zenziwe *uNdikhoyo: ₁₁intente kunye nesigqubuthelo sayo, amahaki, uphahla lwentente, izakhelo, imiqadi, kunye neziseko; ₁₂ityesi yomnqophiso, inemiqobo yokuyiphatha, nesivalo, kunye nomkhusane; ₁₃itafile, inemiqobo namasolotya ayo, kunye nesonka esingumnikelo kuThixo; ₁₄isibane nobuxhaka-xhaka baso, neoyile; ₁₅iqonga lesiqhumiso nemiqobo yokuliphatha, amafutha okuthambisa, isiqhumiso esivumba limnandi, umkhusane wesango lesibingelelo; ₁₆iqonga lamadini linxityelelwe isisefu esenziwe ngobhedu, imiqobo yalo nako konke okwalo; isitya sokuhlambela nesiseko saso; ₁₇umkhusane wenkundla neentsika neziseko zayo; umkhusane wesango lenkundla; ₁₈izikhonkwane neentsontela zomphakathi ngokunjalo nenkundla; ₁₉kunye nezo zivatho zingayiwayo zinxitywa ngababingeleli xa bebusa kwigumbi elingcwele, ngokunjalo nezivatho ezizodwa zika-Aron kunye noonyana bakhe.”

₂₀Ke kaloku lonke ibandla lamaSirayeli lamshiya uMosis, ₂₁waza uwonke-wonke kulo owayeziva elangazelela ukunikela *kuNdikhoyo khon' ukuze kwakhiwe *isibingelelo, weza ephethe umnikelo. Beza nayo yonke into eyayiyimfuneko kwezonqulo nasekwenzeni izivatho zababingeleli. ₂₂Amadoda nabafazi ababeziva belangazelela ukunikela beza nezipeliti zokuhombisa, amacici, imisesane, amaso, nazo zonke iintlobo-ntlobo zobunewu-newu begolide, bazenza umnikelo owodwa kuNdikhoyo. ₂₃Bezisa amalaphu amahle, azuba, amsobo, nabomvu; ilaphu loboya bebhokhwe, ufele olubomvu lwenkunzi yegusha, nesikhumba esisukiweyo. ₂₄Kanti ke nabathanda ukunikela ngesiliva okanye ubhedu benjenjalo. Abanye banikela ngomngampunzi, khon' ukuze usetyenziswe nakuwuphi na umsebenzi. ₂₅Onke amakhosikazi angamagcisa okusonta ezisa amalaphu amahle nemisonto ezuba, emsobo, nebomvu, awayeyisontile. ₂₆Benza umsonto ngoboya bebhokhwe. ₂₇Iinkokheli zona zeza namatye ekarneli namanye amatye okuhombisa *isidanga nesikhuselo-sifuba, ₂₈iziqholo neoyile yesibane, neziqholo zeoyile, neziqhumiso ezivumba limnandi. ₂₉Onke amaSirayeli awayeziva enolangazelelo ezisa iminikelo kuNdikhoyo, khon' ukuze kufezekiswe umsebenzi owawuyalelwe uMosis.

₃₀UMosis wathi kumaSirayeli: “Niyabona, *uNdikhoyo unyule uBhezaleli unyana kaUri umzukulwana kaYuri wendlu kaJuda. ₃₁Umzalisile ngoMoya wakhe, wamthi jize ngobugcisa nobuchule nengqiqo ephangaleleyo, ₃₂ukuze akwazi ukucwangcisa nokuyila nokusebenza ngegolide, isiliva, nobhedu, ₃₃ukukrola nokuqingqa amatye, nokuchwela, nawo wonke umsebenzi wobugcisa. ₃₄Yena enoHoliyabhi unyana ka-Ahisamaki wendlu kaDan ubaphile ubuchule bokufundisa abanye ubugcisa. ₃₅Ubaphe ubuchule beendidi zonke kumsebenzi wabakroli nabayili, nomsebenzi wokusonta amalaphu azuba, amsobo, nabomvu, nazo zonke iindidi zamalaphu. Ewe, bangamachule angawo kuyo yonke imisebenzi yobugcisa nokuyila.

₁“Ngoko ke uBhezaleli noHoliyabhi, nawo onke amagcisa anikwe ezi ziphiwo nokuqonda, anabo ubuchule bokuzenza zonke ezi zinto zifunekayo ekwakhiweni *kwesibingelelo, makazenze zonke zibe matwa nomyalelo kaNdikhoyo.”

₂Ke kaloku uMosis wathetha noBhezaleli noHoliyabhi, nabo bonke abaphiwe ubugcisa nababelangazelela ukunceda, wathi mabaqalise ukusebenza. ₃UMosis wazigqithisela kubo zonke izinto zokusebenza ezazingumnikelo ovela kumaSirayeli ngeenjongo zokwakha *isibingelelo. Baza abantu bathi rhoqo ukuzisa iminikelo yabo ngeentsasa zonke. ₄Amagcisa lawo ayesebenza awuyeka umsebenzi, ₅aya kuMosis, athi: “Lo mnikelo bawuzisayo aba bantu ngoku mninzi ngaphezu kwemfuneko yomsebenzi esiwuyalelwe *nguNdikhoyo.”

₆Ngoku ke uMosis wakhupha umyalelo, kwaza kwavakaliswa kumzi wonke kwathiwa: “Makungabikho bani, nokuba yindoda okanye obhinqileyo, ozisa omnye umnikelo esibingelelweni.” Ngoko ke abantu banqumama ekunikeleni. ₇Lo mnikelo wawuselugqithisiwe wawungaphezu kwemfuneko.

₈Awona madoda angamagcisa kulawo ayesebenza, enza *isibingelelo ngemikhusane elishumi yelaphu elihle kunene, linombala ozuba, omsobo, nobomvu; lihonjiswe laqhoqhonywa ngemifanekiso *yezithunywa ezimaphiko, ezenziwe ngobugcisa nobunono. ₉Le mikhusane yayilingana, iziimitha ezilishumi elinambini ubude, nesibini seemitha ububanzi. ₁₀Imikhusane leyo ke bayithunga bayidibanisa ngamihlanu ngamihlanu. ₁₁Benza amarhintyela ngelaphu elizuba phaya emphethweni ngapha nangapha. ₁₂Bafaka amarhintyela angamashumi amahlanu kuloo macala omabini, bawenza alungelelana. ₁₃Benza namashumi amahlanu amahaki ngegolide, khon' ukuze la macala mabini emikhusane ahlanganiswe abe yinto enye.

₁₄Baza ke benza intente yangaphandle ngemiqulu elishumi elinanye eyenziwe ngoboya bebhokhwe. ₁₅Bayenza yalingana yaziimitha ezilishumi elinantathu ubude, zambini ke ububanzi. ₁₆Isihlanu sayo ke basithunga basidibanisa sayinto enye; ngokunjalo nesithandathu eso basithunga basidibanisa sayinto enye naso. ₁₇Bafakela amarhintyela angamashumi amahlanu emphethweni wecala ngalinye. ₁₈Bathatha ubhedu, benza ngalo amahaki angamashumi amahlanu, khon' ukuze la macala mabini adityaniswe.

₁₉Baza intente bayenzela izigqubuthelo ezibini, esangaphantsi senziwe ngofele olubomvu lwenkunzi yegusha, esangaphezulu ngesikhumba esisukiweyo.

₂₀Benza izakhelo zokuxhasa intente leyo ngomngampunzi. ₂₁Isakhelo ngasinye sasiziimitha ezine ubude neesentimitha ezingamashumi amathandathu nesithandathu ububanzi. ₂₂Bazenza ke zalabalaba ngapha nangapha, ukuze zibe nokuhlanganiswa. Zonke ke izakhelo zenziwa ngale ndlela. ₂₃Izakhelo ezo zaba ngamashumi amabini ezangezantsi. ₂₄Ngokunjalo bazenzela iziseko ngesiliva zamashumi mane, zazibini esakhelweni, ukuze zibambe nale ndawo ilabalabayo. ₂₅Amantla bawenzela izakhelo ezingamashumi amabini, ₂₆ngokunjalo neziseko zesiliva ezingamashumi amane, zazibini esakhelweni. ₂₇Kwicala langasemva entshona benza izakhelo zazithandathu, ₂₈baza benza izakhelo zazibini ezikoneni. ₂₉Ezi zakhelo zeekona zaziqhagamshelwe emazantsi, zaya kuqhina phezulu. Kunjalo ke okwezi zakhelo zibini zeekona. ₃₀Ngoko ke zazisibhozo izakhelo, zixhaswe ngeziseko ezilishumi elinesithandathu – zizibini esakhelweni.

₃₁Kwakhona benza imiqadi yezakhelo ngomngampunzi. Yayimihlanu ngapha ₃₂nangapha, ngokunjalo nakwicala langasentshona ngasemva. ₃₃Lo uphakathi bawubeka esizikithini, wasuka ngapha waya kuthi ngqu ngaphaya. ₃₄Izakhelo ezo bazityabeka ngegolide, bazinxibelela amakhonkco enziwe ngegolide apho kwakungena khona imiqadi – miqadi leyo eyayityatyekwe ngegolide nayo.

₃₅Baza ke bathatha imiqulu yelaphu elisontwe kakuhle, benza umkhusane. Wawuyile mibala: ozuba, omsobo, nobomvu. Futhi ke wawuhonjiswe ngemifanekiso *yezithunywa ezimaphiko, eyenziwe ngobugcisa nobunono. ₃₆Lo mkhusane ke wawuxhonywe kwiintsika zomngampunzi, bezityabeke ngegolide, bazenzela amahaki; zona ke zazixhaswe ngeziseko ezine zesiliva. ₃₇Esangweni lesibingelelo bafaka umkhusane owenziwe ngelaphu lisontwe kakuhle, linale mibala: ozuba, omsobo, nobomvu; baza ke baliqhoqhonya balihombisa ngobugcisa nobunono. ₃₈Lo mkhusane ke bawenzela iintsika ezintlanu, bazifakela amahaki. Iintloko zeentsika, ngokunjalo nemiqadi, bayityabeka ngegolide, baza bazenzela iziseko ezihlanu ngobhedu.

₁UBhezaleli wayenza ityesi yomnqophiso ngomngampunzi. Yayiziisentimitha ezilikhulu elineshumi ubude, zingamashumi amathandathu nantandathu ububanzi kwanomphakamo wayo. ₂Wayityabeka ngegolide ngaphandle nangaphakathi, waza ke wayiphetha kwangayo jikelele. ₃Kumanqina ayo omane wayifakela amakhonkco enziwe ngegolide, amabini kweli cala, amabini kweliya. ₄Kwakhona wenza imiqobo yokuphatha, wayityabeka ngegolide, ₅wayifaka kulaa makhonkco ngapha nangapha, ukuze ibe nokuthwalwa. ₆Wathatha igolide, wenza isivalo setyesi. Sasiziisentimitha ezilikhulu elineshumi ubude, zingamashumi amathandathu anantandathu ububanzi. _7-9Wathatha igolide, wabumba *izithunywa ezimaphiko zambini, wazenza zaba yinto enye nesivalo eso, zamiswa ngapha nangapha phezu kwaso zijongene, athi ke naloo maphiko azo athe naa agubungela isivalo eso.

₁₀Wathatha umngampunzi, wenza itafile. Yona yayingamashumi asibhozo anesibhozo eesentimitha ubude, zingamashumi amane anane ububanzi; kanti ke ukuphakama zazingamashumi amathandathu anesithandathu. ₁₁Wayeyityabeka ngegolide ecwengileyo, futhi wayiphetha kwangayo jikelele. ₁₂Ngokunjalo wayenzela ungqameko oluyijikelezileyo, lungangesandla ububanzi, waza waluphetha ngegolide jikelele. ₁₃Wayifakela amakhonkco amane, enziwe ngegolide, wawanxibelela ezikoneni zone apho imilenze yayifakelwe khona. ₁₄La makhonkco okungena imiqobo yokuphatha wawenza alungelelana nongqameko olo. ₁₅Ke yona imiqobo leyo wayenza ngomngampunzi, wayityabeka ngegolide. ₁₆Itafile leyo wayenzela izitya ngegolide: iipleyiti, iikomityi, iindebe, nezitya zokwenza idini lewayini.
