Ukugcinwa kwesabatha
12Wathetha uYehova kuMoses esithi, 13Wena, thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli uthi, Inene, iisabatha zam zigcineni; kuba zingumqondiso phakathi kwam nani kwizizukulwana zenu, ukuze nazi ukuba ndinguYehova oningcwalisayo; 14niyigcine isabatha, kuba ingcwele kuni. Lowo uyihlambelayo wobulawa afe; kuba bonke abo basebenza umsebenzi ngayo, loo miphefumlo yonqanyulwa, ingabikho ebantwini bakowayo. 15Imihla emithandathu wosebenza umsebenzi ngayo, ke umhla wesixhenxe yisabatha kasabatha, ingcwele kuYehova; bonke abo basebenza umsebenzi ngomhla wesabatha, bobulawa bafe. 16Oonyana bakaSirayeli mabayigcine ke isabatha, bayenze isabatha kwizizukulwana zabo: ingumnqophiso ongunaphakade. 17Phakathi kwam noonyana bakaSirayeli, ngumqondiso ongunaphakade; kuba imihla emithandathu uYehova wenza izulu nomhlaba, waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe, waphefumla.
