9 “‘Kufanele bagcine imitsetfo yami kuze bangabi nesono ngenca yekungayigcini bese bayafa ngobe bangcolise tintfo letingcwele. NginguJehova, loyo lobenta babe ngcwele.

10 “‘Umuntfu longakavumeleki* akukafaneli adle tintfo letingcwele.+ Umuntfu losihambi lohlala nemphristi nobe losisebenti lesicashiwe naye ngeke atidle letintfo letingcwele. 11 Kodvwa nangabe umphristi atsenga umuntfu lotsite ngemali yakhe, loyo muntfu angadla. Tigcili letitalelwe endlini yemphristi, nato tingakudla lokudla lokungcwele.+ 12 Nakwenteka indvodzakati yemphristi iba ngumfati wemuntfu longasuye umphristi,* ngeke itidle tintfo letingcwele letinikelwe. 13 Kodvwa nangabe lendvodzakati iba ngumfelokati nobe idivosa futsi ibe ite bantfwana, bese ibuyela endlini yababe wayo lapho beyihlala khona isengakatsatfwa, ingakudla lokudla lokusabelo sababe wayo.+ Kodvwa-ke umuntfu longakavumeleki* angeke akudle.

14 “‘Nakwenteka umuntfu atidla ngeliphutsa tintfo letingcwele, kufanele atikhokhe leto tintfo futsi engete incenye yato leyodvwa kuletisihlanu, anike umphristi.+ 15 Ngako-ke baphristi akukafaneli bangcolise letintfo letingcwele, leto ema-Israyeli latinikela kuJehova+ 16 futsi babangele kutsi ema-Israyeli ajeziswe ngenca yelicala lekudla tintfo letingcwele. NginguJehova, loyo lobenta babe ngcwele.’”

17 Jehova wachubeka akhuluma naMosi, watsi: 18 “Khuluma na-Aroni nemadvodzana akhe kanye nawo onkhe ema-Israyeli, utsi: ‘Nangabe um-Israyeli nobe umuntfu losihambi aletsa umnikelo wekushiswa+ kuJehova kuze afeze sifungo sakhe nobe awuletse kutsi ube ngumnikelo wekutitsandzela,+ 19 loyo muntfu kufanele aletse silwane lesidvuna lesiphile kahle+ kuze emukeleke. Leso silwane kufanele asitsatse emhlambini wetinkhomo, nobe etimvini letindvuna letisetincane nobe etimbutini. 20 Akukafaneli niletse silwane lesinesici+ ngobe ngeke sinente kutsi nemukeleke.

21 “‘Nangabe umuntfu aletsa umhlatjelo wekuthula+ kuJehova kuze afeze sifungo sakhe nobe awuletse kutsi ube ngumnikelo wekutitsandzela, kufanele kube silwane lesiphile kahle lesitsetfwe emhlambini wetinkhomo, nobe wetimvu nobe wetimbuti, kuze loyo muntfu emukeleke. Lesilwane kufanele sibe bete sici. 22 Akukafaneli ninikele ngesilwane lesingaboni, lesephukile, lesisikekile, lesinensumphe, lesinelukhwekhwe nobe intsembutane. Tilwane letinjalo akukafaneli nitiletse kuJehova nobe nentele ngato Jehova umnikelo e-al’thare. 23 Inkunzi nobe imvu lenemikhono nobe imilente lengalingani yona ningayiletsa kutsi ibe ngumnikelo wekutitsandzela, kodvwa ngeke yemukeleke kutsi ibe ngumnikelo wekufunga. 24 Akukafaneli niletse kuJehova silwane lesidvuna lesinetitfo tangasense letilimele, letifihlitiwe, letikhishiwe nobe letijutjiwe. Tilwane letinjena ningabonikela ngato eveni lenu. 25 Ningabotinikela tilwane letinjalo letisuka kumuntfu wekuhamba kutsi tibe kudla lokunikelwa kuNkulunkulu, ngobe tisuke tinenkinga futsi tinesici. Letilwane ngeke temukeleke.’”

26 Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naMosi, watsi: 27 “Litfole lenkhomo nobe lizinyane lemvu nobe lembuti lelitelwe litawuhlala nenina emalanga langu-7,+ ngelilanga lesi-8 selingemukeleka-ke kutsi linikelwe, libe ngumnikelo lowentiwa ngemlilo kuJehova. 28 Ungaboyihlaba inkhomo nelitfole layo ngelilanga linye, nemvu ungaboyihlaba nelizinyane layo ngelilanga linye.+

29 “Nanenta umhlatjelo wekubonga loya kuJehova,+ kufanele niwunikele ngendlela letawunenta nemukeleke kuye. 30 Lomhlatjelo kufanele udliwe ngalelolanga. Akube bete lutfo lwawo lolusalako kuze kube sekuseni.+ NginguJehova.

31 “Nibogcina imitsetfo yami futsi niyilandzele.+ NginguJehova. 32 Ningalingcolisi libito lami lelingcwele.+ Kufanele ngingcweliswe emkhatsini wawo onkhe ema-Israyeli.+ NginguJehova, loyo lonenta nibe ngcwele,+ 33 futsi lowanikhipha eveni laseGibhithe kuze nginikhombise kutsi nginguNkulunkulu wenu.+ NginguJehova.”
