Ukudla okuhlambulukileko nokusilapheleko
1USomnini wakhuluma noMosi no-Aroni bonyana 2batjele ama-Israyeli bathi: “Kizo zoke iimphili ezikhona enarheni, nanzi eningazidla: 3Zoke iinlwana ezihlukanisa kabili iinqatha bezetjise zidleni.
4“Kodwana lezo ezetjisa kwaphela namkha ezahlukanisa iinqatha kwaphela, ningazidli. Ikamela liyetjisa kodwana iinqatha zalo azikahlukani; yeke lisilaphele kini. 5Nembila iyetjisa kodwana iindlawu zayo azikahlukani; isilaphele kini. 6Umqasa nawo uyetjisa kodwana iindlawu zawo azikahlukani; usilaphele kini. 7Godu iwotji ineenqatha ezihlukene kabili kodwana ayetjisi; isilaphele kini. 8Ningadli inyamazo begodu ningathinti iindumbu zazo; zisilaphele kini.
9“Kizo zoke eziphila ngemanzini elwandle nemlanjeni, ningadla nanyana yini eneengwedlo neempepha. 10Kodwana nanyana ngisiphi isiphili esihlala ngelwandle namkha ngemilanjeni esinganangwedlo neempepha okutjho eziphithizelako nezikulu, zisinyenyiso kini. 11Nizinyenye ezinjalo, inyamazo ningayidli neendumbu zazo zizakuhlala zingezinyenyisako kini. 12Nanyana yini engemanzini enganangwedlo neempepha isinyenyiso kini.
13“Iinyoni ezisinyenyiso kini neningakafaneli ukuzidla ngilezi: yoke imihlobo yamadlanga, 14imihlobo yabokholo, 15yoke imihlobo yamagubulu, 16-18iinciliba, yoke imihlobo yeenrhululurhulu, yoke imihlobo yamakhozi, abotlhame, amalanda, 19abonogolantethe, abodoyi, amagqofu nabonomaphelaphelana.
20“Zoke iinunwana ezineempiko nemilenzana zisinyenyiso kini. 21Kodwana phakathi kweenunwana ezineempiko nemilenzana, ningadla lezo ezinamaqondo wokweqayeqa ehlabathini. 22Kizo ningadla: isikhonyani ngokwemihlobaso, amaboni ngemihlobawo, amadiye ngokwemihlobawo kanye nezinye iintethe. 23Zoke ezinye iinunwana ezineempiko nemilenzana zisinyenyiso kini.
24“Nasi indlela enizakusilaphala ngayo: Nanyana ngubani othinta isidumbu sesiphili esisilapheleko uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe. 25Nanyana ngubani othwala isidumbu sesiphileso kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe, kodwana uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe. 26Zoke iinlwana ezineenqatha ezingakahlukani kabili begodu zingetjisi, zisilaphele kini; nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo uzakuba ngosilapheleko. 27Zoke iinlwana ezikhamba ngeendlawu zisilaphele kini. Nanyana ngubani othinta iindumbu zazo uzakusilaphala bekuhlwe. 28Nanyana ngubani othwala isidumbu sazo kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe, kodwana uzokuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe ngombana zisilaphele kini.
29-30“Phakathi kweenkhakhabi eziphithizela ehlabathini, nanzi ezisilapheleko kini: iimfukwana namakhondlo, yoke imihlobo yeembhadwa nabononkghadanyana kanye namanwabu. 31Lezo zisilaphele kini phakathi kwazo zoke iimbandana ezikhakhaba ehlabathini. Othinta iindumbu zazo uzakuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe. 32Nanyana yini ewelwa ziindumbezo izakuba ngesilapheleko, kungaba ngeyenziwe ngesigodo, ngetjhila, ngesikhumba, ngomgodla namkha ngisiphi isitja esisetjenziselwa nanyana yini. Yeke kufuze sitlubhuzwe ngemanzini kodwana sizakuba ngesisilapheleko bekuhlwe. Emva kwalokho sizakuhlambuluka. 33Okungaphakathi kwesitja somdaka esiwelwa nanyana ngisiphi seendumbezo, kusilaphele. Ngalokho kufuze nisephule. 34Koke ukudla okuqaphakelwe mamanzi wesitjeso, kuzakuba ngokusilapheleko. Zoke iinselo ezingahle ziselelwe ngaphakathi kwaso zisilaphele. 35Nanyana yini ewelwa ziindumbezo, isilaphele. Kungaba siwulu somdaka namkha iziko, akwephulwe ngombana kusilaphele begodu kuzakuhlala kusilaphele kini. 36Nakumthombo namkha umphathamanzi kuzakuba ngokuhlambulukileko, kodwana othinta isidumbu esiwele ngaphakathi, usilaphele. 37Nanyana ngiyiphi imbewu ekufuze itjalwe, nayiwelwa sidumbu sazo izakuba ngehlambulukileko, 38kodwana nakube imbewu ithambile bese kuthi isidumbu sazo siwele imbewu leyo, khona-ke isilaphele kini.
39“Nakube kuyenzeka bona kufe isilwana enisidlako, othinta isidumbu sesilwaneso uzakuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe. 40Loyo odla inyama yesilwana esizifeleko kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe begodu uzakuba ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe. Kanti-ke nothwala isidumbu sesilwaneso kufuze ahlanze izambatho zakhe abe ngosilapheleko bekuhlwe.
41“Zoke iimbandana ezikhakhaba ehlabathini ziyanyenyisa kini, azingadliwa, 42kungaba ngokurhurhubako, okukhakhaba ngemilenze emine namkha okuneenyawo ezinengi. Koke okuphithizela ehlabathini ningakudli ngombana kuyanyenyisa kini. 43Ningazenzi bona nibe ngabanyenyekako ngebanga lananyana ngisiphi isikhakhabi esiphithizelako. Ningazisilaphazi ngazo ukuze ningasilaphali. 44NginguSomnini uZimenu, ngalokho zahlukaniseleni mina. Yibani ngabacwengileko ngombana mina ngicwengile. Ningazisilaphazi nanganyana yini ekhakhaba ehlabathini. 45Iye, nginguSomnini owanikhupha enarheni yeGibhide bona ngibe nguZimu kini. Ngebangelo yibani ngabacwengileko ngombana mina ngicwengile.
46“Lowo-ke mthetho ophathelene neenlwana, iinyoni, iimphili zoke eziphithizela ngemanzini nezikhakhaba ehlabathini. 47Ngawo nizakwazi ukuhlukanisa phakathi kokuhlambulukileko nokusilapheleko, naphakathi kweemphili ezidliwako nezingadliwako.”
