13 “Nangabe umuntfu atsatsa umfati, futsi aye naye ecansini bese uyamtondza,* 14 amsole nangekutsi utiphetse kabi, bese umakhela ligama lelibi ngekutsi atsi: ‘Ngitsetse lomfati, kodvwa ngitsite nangiya naye ecansini ngatfola kutsi akasiyo intfombi ntfo,’ 15 batali balentfombatana kufanele bamikise bufakazi bekutsi lentfombatana beyiyintfombi ntfo, babunike emadvodza lamadzala lasegedeni lalelidolobha. 16 Babe walentfombatana kufanele atsi kulamadvodza lamadzala: ‘Lomuntfu ngamniketa indvodzakati yami kutsi ibe ngumfati wakhe, kodvwa sewuyayitondza,* 17 futsi uyisola kutsi itiphetse kabi ngekutsi atsi: “Ngitfole kutsi indvodzakati yakho ayisiyo intfombi ntfo.” Nabu-ke bufakazi bekutsi indvodzakati yami beyiyintfombi ntfo.’ Ngemuva kwaloko labatali batawendlala indvwangu embikwemadvodza lamadzala alelidolobha. 18 Lamadvodza lamadzala+ atawutsatsa lendvodza ayijezise.+ 19 Atayihlawulisa lisiliva lelingaba likhilogremu,* alinikete babe walentfombatana, ngobe lendvodza ihlazise intfombi yaka-Israyeli.+ Lentfombi itawuchubeka ingumfati wayo, futsi lendvodza ayikavumeleki kutsi yehlukane naye kuko konkhe kuphila kwayo.

20 “Kodvwa nangabe letinsolo tiliciniso, futsi kute bufakazi bekutsi lentfombatana beyiyintfombi ntfo, 21 baboyikhiphela ngephandle esangweni lendlu yababe wayo. Emadvodza akulelidolobha kufanele ayigcobe ngematje ize ife ngobe yente intfo lelihlazo+ ka-Israyeli ngekutsi itiphatse kabi ngekwelicansi* endlini yababe wayo.+ Ngako-ke nibobususa bubi emkhatsini wenu.+

22 “Nangabe indvodza itfolakala iya ecansini nemfati walenye indvodza, bobabili kufanele babulawe kanye kanye, lomfati kanye nalendvodza laye nayo ecansini.+ Kufanele nibususe bubi ka-Israyeli.

23 “Nangabe intfombi yetsembisene umshado nendvodza letsite, bese lenye indvodza ihlangana nalentfombi edolobheni, iye nayo ecansini, 24 kufanele bobabili bakhishelwe ngephandle egedeni lalelidolobha futsi bagcotjwe ngematje baze bafe. Lentfombatana itawugcotjwa ngenca yekutsi ayizange ihlabe inyandzaleyo ledolobheni, lendvodza yona itawugcotjwa ngenca yekutsi ihlazise umfati wemuntfu wakubo.+ Ngako-ke kufanele nibususe bubi emkhatsini wenu.

25 “Kodvwa nangabe lendvodza iyikhandze esigangeni lentfombi letsembisene nalenye indvodza, futsi yayibamba ngenkhani yalala nayo, ngulendvodza kuphela lokufanele ibulawe. 26 Ningabokwenta lutfo kulentfombi ngobe kute sono lesentile lesenta ifanelwe kufa. Loku lokwentekile kufanana nalapho umuntfu ahlasela lomunye bese uyambulala.*+ 27 Ngobe lendvodza ikhandze lentfombi esigangeni, futsi lentfombi iyihlabile inyandzaleyo, kodvwa kwaba bete loyisitako.

28 “Nakwenteka indvodza ihlangana nentfombi lengakatsembisani nalenye indvodza umshado, futsi iyibambe iye nayo ecansini bese loko kuyevakala,+ 29 lendvodza kufanele inike babe walentfombi emagremu langu-570* elisiliva, futsi lentfombi itawuba ngumfati wayo.+ Lendvodza ngeke ivunyelwe kutsi yehlukane naye kuko konkhe kuphila kwayo, ngobe imhlazisile.
