7 “‘Nangu umtsetfo lokufanele ulandzelwe nakwentiwa umnikelo welicala:+ Lomnikelo ungcwele ngelizinga leliphakeme. 2 Silwane lesingumnikelo welicala kufanele sihlatjelwe endzaweni lapho kuhlatjelwa khona iminikelo yekushiswa, futsi ingati+ yaso kufanele ifafatwe kuto tonkhe tinhlangotsi teli-al’thare.+ 3 Umphristi utawuletsa onkhe emanoni aso,+ lokufaka ekhatsi umsila waso, emanoni lambonye ematfumbu, 4 tinso totimbili nemanoni ato langasetinyongeni kanye nemanoni lasesibindzini.+ 5 Utakushisa kuze intfutfu yako ishunce isuka e-al’thare, kube ngumnikelo lowentiwa ngemlilo kuJehova.+ Lona ngumnikelo welicala. 6 Inyama yalesilwane itawudliwa ngiwo onkhe emadvodza labaphristi,+ futsi itawudlelwa endzaweni lengcwele. Loku kungcwele ngelizinga leliphakeme.+ 7 Umtsetfo losebenta nakwentiwa umnikelo wesono uyasebenta nalapho kwentiwa umnikelo welicala. Inyama yalesilwane itawuba yalomphristi lotawube ente lomnikelo ngaso kuze umuntfu abuyisane naNkulunkulu.+

8 “‘Umphristi nakentela umuntfu lotsite umnikelo wekushiswa, sikhumba+ salesilwane lesentiwe umnikelo sitawuba salomphristi.

9 “‘Wonkhe umnikelo walokutinhlavu lobhakwe etiko, nobe lowentiwe ebhodweni nobe ekesini,+ utawuba walomphristi lowentile.+ 10 Kodvwa yonkhe iminikelo yalokutinhlavu lenemafutsa+ nobe leyomile,+ itawuba yawo onkhe emadvodzana a-Aroni, futsi onkhe atawutfola lokulinganako.

11 “‘Nangu umtsetfo lotawulandzelwa nangabe umuntfu aletsa umhlatjelo wekuthula+ kuJehova: 12 Nangabe lomhlatjelo wakhe uwekubonga,+ utawuletsa netinkhwa letiyindingilizi letite imvubelo futsi letinemafutsa, aletse nemacebelengwane lete imvubelo labhocwe ngemafutsa kanye netinkhwa letiyindingilizi letentiwe ngafulaha locolisakele, lohlanganiswe nemafutsa futsi wabhucwa kahle. 13 Utawuletsa netinkhwa letiyindingilizi letinemvubelo kanye nalemihlatjelo yakhe yekuthula, lokuyimihlatjelo yekubonga. 14 Kufanele atsatse sinkhwa sinye kuleyo naleyo nhlobo sibe yincenye lengcwele kuJehova; sitawuba salomphristi lofafata ingati yalesilwane lesingumhlatjelo wekuthula.+ 15 Inyama yalemihlatjelo yekuthula, lokuyimihlatjelo yekubonga kufanele idliwe ngalelilanga lenikelwa ngalo. Akukafaneli ayishiye kuze kube sekuseni.+

16 “‘Nangabe lomhlatjelo wakhe kungumnikelo wekufunga+ nobe wekutitsandzela,+ kufanele udliwe ngalelilanga umphristi lawenta ngalo, futsi lokusalako kuwo kungaphindze kudliwe nangelilanga lelilandzelako. 17 Kodvwa nobe nguyiphi inyama yalomhlatjelo lesele kwaze kwaba lilanga lesitsatfu, itawushiswa ngemlilo.+ 18 Nangabe inyama yalomhlatjelo wakhe wekuthula idliwa nangelilanga lesitsatfu, loyo muntfu loyinikelako angeke emukelwe, nalomnikelo wakhe angeke wemukeleke. Loku kuyintfo lembi, futsi umuntfu loyidlako utawulandzisa ngesono sakhe.+ 19 Inyama letsintse nobe yini lengcolile akukafaneli idliwe, kodvwa iboshiswa ngemlilo. Inyama lehlantekile ngiyo lengadliwa futsi nobe ngubani loyidlako kufanele ahlanteke.

20 “‘Nobe ngubani longcolile futsi lodla inyama yemhlatjelo wekuthula lenikelwe kuJehova, kufanele abulawe.+ 21 Nangabe umuntfu atsintsa nobe yini lengcolile, kungaba ngumuntfu longcolile,+ silwane lesingcolile+ nanobe yini lengcolile futsi leyenyanyekako,+ bese udla lenye yalenyama yalomhlatjelo wekuthula lenikelwe kuJehova, loyo muntfu* kufanele abulawe.’”

22 Jehova wachubeka akhuluma naMosi, atsi: 23 “Ubotjela ema-Israyeli, utsi: ‘Akukafaneli nidle emanoni+ enkunzi nobe emvu lendvuna leseyincane nobe embuti. 24 Emanoni esilwane lesitfolakele sifile nemanoni esilwane lesibulewe ngulesinye, angasetjentiselwa letinye tintfo, kodvwa akukafaneli niwadle.+ 25 Nobe ngubani lodla emanoni esilwane lanikele ngaso kuJehova saba ngumnikelo lowentiwa ngemlilo, kufanele abulawe.

26 “‘Akukafaneli nidle ingati+ kuto tonkhe tindzawo lenihlala kuto, kungaba yingati yetinyoni nobe yetilwane. 27 Nobe ngubani lodla ingati kufanele abulawe.’”+

28 Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naMosi watsi: 29 “Ubotjela ema-Israyeli utsi: ‘Nobe ngubani loletsa umhlatjelo wekuthula kuJehova kufanele atsatse incenye yalomhlatjelo ayinikele kuJehova.+ 30 Utawuletsa emanoni+ kanye nemganga kutsi kube ngumnikelo lowentiwa ngemlilo kuJehova, futsi loku utakuletsa akuphetse ngetandla, akujikitise kuze kube ngumnikelo lojikitiswako+ embikwaJehova. 31 Umphristi utawushisa lamanoni kuze intfutfu yawo ishunce isuka e-al’thare,+ kodvwa lomganga utawuba wa-Aroni nemadvodzana akhe.+

32 “‘Umlente wangesekudla wesilwane lesentiwe umhlatjelo wekuthula nitawunika umphristi futsi utawuba yincenye yakhe lengcwele.+ 33 Indvodzana ya-Aroni letawunikela ngengati yalemihlatjelo yekuthula kanye nemanoni, itawutsatsa umlente wangesekudla ube wayo.+ 34 Kulemihlatjelo yekuthula yema-Israyeli, mine ngitawutsatsa umganga wemnikelo lojikitiswako kanye nemlente loyincenye lengcwele ngikunike Aroni umphristi nemadvodzana akhe. Lona ngumtsetfo lohlala njalo lotawulandzelwa ngema-Israyeli.+

35 “‘Lena yincenye letsetfwe eminikelweni leyentiwa ngemlilo kuJehova lokufanele inikwe baphristi, lokungu-Aroni nemadvodzana akhe. Kufanele banikwe yona ngelilanga lababekwa ngalo kutsi bakhonte Jehova njengebaphristi.+ 36 Jehova utsite ngelilanga latawubagcoba+ ngalo utabanika lencenye letsetfwe kuma-Israyeli. Lona ngumtsetfo lotawuhlala njalo, kuto tonkhe titukulwane.’”

37 Ngulona-ke umtsetfo lotawulandzelwa nakwentiwa umnikelo wekushiswa,+ umnikelo walokutinhlavu,+ umnikelo wesono,+ umnikelo welicala,+ umhlatjelo lowentiwa nakubekwa baphristi,+ nemhlatjelo wekuthula,+ 38 njengobe nje Jehova asho kuMosi eNtsabeni iSinayi,+ ngelilanga atjela ema-Israyeli ehlane laseSinayi kutsi aletse iminikelo yawo kuJehova.+
