UMhla wokuCamagusha

1Emva kokufa koonyana baka-Aron bobabini, abafa ngenxa yokwenzela *uNdikhoyo umlilo ongekho esikweni, 2uNdikhoyo wathi kuMosis: “Yithi kumntakwenu uAron makangafan' angene nje emva komkhusane kwelona gumbi lingcwele, kuba kulapho ndibonakala khona elifini ngaphezu kwesivalo sokucamagushela setyesi yomnqophiso. Ukuba uyenzile loo nto uya kufa. 3Angangena kwelona gumbi lingcwele kuphela xa eza nenkunzana yenkomo yedini lesono kunye nenkunzi yegusha yedini elitshiswayo.

4Wathi uNdikhoyo uAron aze enze ezi zinto: UAron ngaphambi kokuba angene kwelona gumbi lingcwele kufuneka ahlambe umzimba, afake izivatho ezizodwa zobubingeleli: ihempe yelinen yangapantsi, ibhulukhwe emfutshane, umbhinqo esinqeni, aze athwale iqhiya.

5Ibandla lakwaSirayeli lilonke lonikela uAron iinkunzi zeebhokhwe zibe mbini zokwenza idini lesono, kunye nenkunzi yegusha yedini elitshiswayo. 6Uya kunikela ngenkunzi yenkomo yokungxengxezela izono zakhe kwakunye nomzi wakhe, 7andule ke asondeze ezaa bhokhwe zimbini ngasesangweni *lesibingelelo phambi koNdikhoyo. 8Khona apho ke uya kwenza *iqashiso ngamatye amabini, elinye ilitye libhalwe kuthiwe “ibhokhwe kaNdikhoyo” elinye “ibhokhwe ethwaliswa izono.” 9Iya kuthi ke loo bhokhwe ichongwe ngeqashiso ukuba yekaNdikhoyo uAron enze ngayo idini lokucamagushela isono, 10ithi leya iyibhokhwe ethwaliswa izono isondezwe kuNdikhoyo ihleli, ibe sisicamagushelo ngokuthi ikhatshelelwe entlango ithwele izono zesizwe.

11UAron uya kuza nenkunzi yenkomo yokucamagushela isono sakhe kunye nesomzi wakhe, aze ayixhele. 12Uya kukha amalahle avuthayo ngomcephe eqongeni eliphambi koNdikhoyo, aze athathe kangangezandla ezibini zentlaka yesiqhumiso ecoliweyo, angene nazo kwelona gumbi lingcwele. 13Apho ke ngaphambi koNdikhoyo wogalela intlaka yesiqhumiso kuloo malahle, khon' ukuze umsi wesiqhumiso usigubungele isivalo setyesi enobungqina bomnqophiso, ukuze angayiboni, hleze afe akuyibona. 14Uya kwandula ke athi nkxu umnwe wakhe egazini laloo nkunzi yenkomo exheliweyo, ze atshize ngalo umphambili wesivalo setyesi, aze athi tshize kasixhenxe nangaphambi kwetyesi yomnqophiso.

15Akugqiba ke uya kuxhela laa bhokhwe yedini lokungxengxezela izono zesizwe, azise igazi layo ngaphakathi kwelona gumbi lingcwele, aze atshize ngalo isivalo nomphambili wetyesi yomnqophiso njengoko ebenzile ngegazi lenkunzi yenkomo. 16Ngokwenjenje ke uyalicamagushela elona gumbi lingcwele ekuxajelweni *ngumlaza wamaSirayeli nazizono zokungeva kwawo. Kufuneka ayenze le nto nasesibingelelweni siphela, kuba kaloku simi kanye embindini welali esuleleke ngumlaza. 17Ukususela ekungeneni kuka-Aron kwelona gumbi lingcwele ukuya kwenza inkonzo yokucamagushela, de abe uphumile, makungangeni namnye umntu esibingelelweni. Akugqiba ukuzicamagushela yena kunye nomzi wakhe kwakunye nebandla likaSirayeli liphela, 18kufuneka aphume aye kucamagushela iqonga eliphambi koNdikhoyo. Makathathe igazi lalaa nkunzi yenkomo nelalaa bhokhwe, aye kutyikila ngalo iimpondo ezikwiikona zeqonga, 19aze atshize ngelo gazi kasixhenxe apho eqongeni. Wokwenjenjalo ke ukulicamagushela iqonga lamadini kumlaza wamaSirayeli, alahlulele uNdikhoyo libe ngcwele.

Ibhokhwe ethwaliswa izono

20Akugqiba uAron ukulicamagushela elona gumbi lingcwele, *nesibingelelo siphela, kunye neqonga, uya kusondeza *kuNdikhoyo laa bhokhwe ihleliyo ibichongelwe ukuthwaliswa izono. 21Woyibeka izandla entloko, avume phezu kwayo bonke ububi obenziwe ngamaSirayeli, nokungeva kwawo, kunye nezono zawo zonke. Loo bhokhwe ithwaliswe zonke izono iya kukhatshelwa entlango ngumntu otyunjelwe loo nto. 22Yozithwala zonke izono zabantu loo bhokhwe, iye nazo apho kungahlali mntu khona.

23Uya kwandula ke ngoku uAron aye esibingelelweni, apho aya kufika akhulule izivatho zobubingeleli abezinxibe ngaphambi kokuba angene kwelona gumbi lingcwele, azishiye apho. 24Uya kuhlamba umzimba endaweni ekhethekileyo, aze anxibe impahla yakhe eqhelekileyo. Emva koko uya kuphumela ngaphandle, anikele idini elitshiswayo lokucamagushela izono zakhe nelokucamagushela izono zesizwe. 25Amanqatha edini lesono makawatshisele apho eqongeni. 26Laa mntu ubeyikhaphele entlango ibhokhwe ethwaliswe izono kufuneka ahlambe impahla yakhe, ahlambe nomzimba, ngaphambi kokuba abuyele ngaphakathi kwelali. 27Laa nkunzi yenkomo kunye nalaa bhokhwe yokwenza idini lesono, ezigazi lazo belingeniswe kwelona gumbi lingcwele ukuze ngalo kungxengxezelwe isono, kufuneka zona zikhutshelwe ngaphandle kwelali, zitshiswe apho. Ufele, inyama, kunye nezibilini, kufuneka kutshiswe konke. 28Umntu otyunjelwe loo msebenzi wokuzitshisa kufuneka ahlambe impahla yakhe, ahlambe nomzimba, ngaphambi kokuba abuyele ngaphakathi kwelali.

Izithethe zoMhla wokuCamagusha

29Ezi zithethe kufuneka zigcinwe ngalo lonke ixesha: Ngosuku lweshumi kwinyanga yesixhenxe kufuneka amaSirayeli, kwakunye nabangeneleli abaphakathi kwawo, bazile, bangenzi namsebenzi. 30Ngaloo mini makucanyagushwe, khon' ukuze bangabi nasono *kuNdikhoyo. 31Loo mhla mawube yimini eyodwa abaya kuthi bazile ngayo, bangenzi nomsebenzi lo. Esi mayibe sisithethe esiya kusoloko sigcinwa ngalo lonke ixesha. 32Ucamagusho kufuneka lwenziwe ngumbingeleli omkhulu omiselwe watyunjelwa ukungena endaweni kayise. Wovatha ezizodwa zobubingeleli, 33aze ke alicamagushele elona gumbi lingcwele, *isibingelelo siphela, iqonga, ababingeleli, kwakunye nebandla lakwaSirayeli lilonke. 34Masingaze sityeshelwe esi sithethe. Kanye ngonyaka amaSirayeli makacanyagushelwe.

UMosis ke wenza njengoko wayeyalelwe nguNdikhoyo.

Indawo emakuxhelelwe kuyo

1*UNdikhoyo wathi uMosis 2makagqithisele le mimiselo kuAron nakoonyana bakhe nakumaSirayeli ephela: 3-4UmSirayeli oxhela inkomo nokuba yigusha nokuba yibhokhwe, eyixhelela elalini okanye nakuyiphi na enye indawo, waphula umthetho xa loo nto angayenzeli ngasesangweni *lesibingelelo. Umntu ongawuthobelanga lo mmiselo wofana nomntu ophalaze igazi, yaye uya kusikwa kumaSirayeli. 5Intsingiselo yalo mthetho kukuba amaSirayeli awazise kuNdikhoyo loo madini ebekade ewaxhelela naphi na. Onke amadini makaziswe kumbingeleli ngasesangweni lesibingelelo, abe ngamadini obudlelane. 6Umbingeleli uya kutshiza ngegazi elo kumacala onke eqonga ekungeneni kwesibingelelo, aze amanqatha awatshise enzele uNdikhoyo ivumba elimyoli. 7AmaSirayeli makangaphindi anganyaniseki kuNdikhoyo ngokuxhelela naphi na, esenzela iindimoni amadini. Esi sithethe amaSirayeli makangaze asityeshele.

8UmSirayeli okanye umngeneleli othe wenzela uNdikhoyo idini elitshiswayo, okanye naliphi na elinye idini, 9ongalenzelanga uNdikhoyo ngasesangweni lesibingelelo, loo mntu kufuneka asikwe ebantwini bakaThixo.

Ukuxabiseka kwegazi

10UmSirayeli okanye umngeneleli othe watya inyama yento engophanga, *uNdikhoyo womfulathela, angabi nabudlelane naye. 11Igazi bubomi bayo nayiphi na into ephilayo. Yiyo ke loo nto uNdikhoyo ayalela ukuba kungxengxezelwe ngalo izono zabantu eqongeni. Igazi libubomi, licamagushela izono. 12Yiyo ke loo nto uNdikhoyo athe amaSirayeli nabangeneleli maze bangayityi inyama yento engophanga.

13Xa kukho umSirayeli okanye umngeneleli othe wazingela wabamba inyamakazi okanye intaka etyiwayo, kufuneka igazi layo alivuzisele emhlabeni, aze aligqumelele ngomhlaba. 14Kaloku igazi libubomi bayo yonke into ephilayo. Kungenxa yoko ke uNdikhoyo athe kumaSirayeli makangayityi inyama yento engophanga, yaye nabani na oyityayo uya kusikwa ebantwini bakaThixo.

15UmSirayeli okanye umngeneleli othe watya inyama yento efileyo, okanye ebulewe ngamarhamncwa, kufuneka ahlambe iimpahla, ahlambe nomzimba, alinde kutshone ilanga, ukuze uphele *umlaza. 16Ukuba akayenzi loo nto, aze aqonde ukuba isala-kutyelwa sibona ngolophu.

Mayela norheletyo

1*UNdikhoyo wayalela uMosis 2ukuba axelele amaSirayeli athi: “Mna ndinguNdikhoyo uThixo wenu. 3Sanukulandela imikhwa yabantu baseJiputa, apho benifudula nihlala khona, okanye eyabantu baseKanana, apho ndinisa khona ngoku. 4Yithobeleni imithetho yam, nenze oko ndiniyalela kona. Ewe, ndim Ndikhoyo uThixo wenu. 5Nize nihambe ngemimiselo nangemithetho endiza kuniwisela yona; xa niyithobela niya kuphila ngayo. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo.”

6UNdikhoyo ke wawisa le mithetho: “Makungabikho ndoda ihlangana nomntu ezalana naye. 7Uze ungamhlazisi uyihlo ngokuhlangana nonyoko; linyala ukuhlangana nonyoko. 8Uze ungahlazisi uyihlo ngokuhlangana naye nawuphi na kubafazi bakhe. 9Ungaze uhlangane nodade wenu, nokuba yintombi kayihlo, nokuba yintombi kanyoko, nditsho nokuba ingakhulelanga kowenu. 10Ungaze uhlangane nomzukulwana wakho; linyala elo. 11Ungaze uhlangane nentombi yeqadi; ngudade wenu lowo. 12Ungaze uhlangane nodade boyihlo 13okanye unyokokazi. 14Ungaze uhlangane nomka-yihlo-mncinci okanye kanyokolume. 15Ungaze uhlangane nomolokazana wakho, 16okanye umka-mntakwenu. 17Ungaze uhlangane nentombi okanye umzukulwana womfazi owakha wahlangana naye; kaloku bayazalana naye. Into enjalo yintlondi. 18Ungaze umenze umkakho udade bomkakho lo gama asaphilayo umkakho.

19“Ungaze uhlangane nomfazi osexesheni, kuba ùya kuxabheleka ngokwenjenjalo. 20Ungaze uhlangane nomfazi wenye indoda, kuba linyala loo nto. 21Unganikezeli namnye umntwana wakho abe yinto yokwenzela *uMoleki idini, kuba loo nto inyelisa igama loThixo wakho. Nditsho mna Ndikhoyo. 22Indoda mayingahlangani nenye indoda iyenze umfazi, kuba lisikizi elo. 23Makungabikho ndoda okanye umfazi ohlangana nesilwanyana; loo ntlondi ilisikizi. 24Ze ningazingcolisi ngezi ntlondi, kuba iintlanga zazixabhela ngenxa yezi zinto. Nditsho iintlanga ezazimi kulo mhlaba, ezi ngoku mna Ndikhoyo ndizikhuphayo kuwo ukuze kuhlale nina. 25Iintlondi zazo zada zaxabhela nomhlaba lo, ngoku ke ndiwenze ukuba ubabukule abantu ababewumile. 26-27Bawenza la manyala onke, baza balingcolisa elo zwe; ke nina maze niwatyeshele. Nditsho kuni nonke, maSirayeli kunye nabangeneleli, kufuneka le miyalelo yam niyigcine, 28khon' ukuze ningawuxabheli loo mhlaba ude unibukule njengoko wazibukulayo iintlanga ebezihlala kuwo ngaphambi kwenu. 29Yazini ukuba uyasikwa ebantwini bakaNdikhoyo nabani na owenza la masikizi.”

30“Thobelani imiyalelo yam,” utsho uNdikhoyo, “ningalinganisi imikhwa yabantu ababehlala apha ngaphambi kwenu. Ze ningazixabheli ngokwenza la manyala. Kutsho mna kaloku, Ndikhoyo, uThixo wenu.”

Imithetho ngemithetho

1*UNdikhoyo wayalela uMosis ukuba makathi kwibandla lilonke lakwaSirayeli: 2“Yibani ngabantu abangcwele, kuba mna Ndikhoyo, Thixo wenu, ndingcwele. 3Hlonelani uyihlo nonyoko, nize *noMhla wokuPhumla niwugcine ngokomyalelo wam. Kaloku ndim uNdikhoyo uThixo wenu.

4“Nize ningandifulatheli niye kunqula izithixo; ningaziqingqeli imifanekiso. Kaloku mna Ndikhoyo ndinguThixo wenu.

5“Xa nixhele into yokwenza idini lobudlelane, ze nenze ngokommiselo endaninika wona, ukuze ndilamkele elo dini. 6Inyama yalo kufuneka ityiwe kanye ngalo mhla yawiswa ngawo loo nto yedini, kungenjalo ngomhla olandelayo. Ngomhla wesithathu yonke inyama eseleyo kufuneka itshiswe. 7Kaloku *selinomlaza, yaye ukuba kukho bani uyityileyo loo nyama, akayi kwamkeleka yena. 8Nabani na oyityileyo loo nyama wolizeka ityala. Kaloku uxabhele into eyahlulelwe mna. Loo mntu kufuneka asikwe kubantu bam.

9“Xa nivuna ze ningayisiki ingqolowa esemaphethelweni amasimi, ningakhwahlazi xa senivunile. 10Nasesidiliyeni ze ningakhwahlazi, newileyo ningayicholi. Ze niyiyekele amahlwempu kunye nabantu basemzini. Ndim kaloku uNdikhoyo uThixo wenu.

11“Ze ningebi, okanye nenze amaqhinga, okanye nixoke. 12Ungafungi ngegama lam uxoka. Ngokwenjenjalo unyelisa igama lam. Kaloku mna Ndikhoyo ndinguThixo wakho.

13“Ungaze umqhathe ummelwane wakho okanye umenzele ubuqhophololo. Musa ukuwubamba umvuzo womntu omqeshileyo, nditsho nobusuku obunye obu. 14Ungasithuki isithulu, okanye ubeke umqobo osisikhubekiso phambi kwemfama. Ndihlonele; kaloku ndinguNdikhoyo uThixo wakho.

15“Nize nigwebe ngobulungisa xa nichophele amatyala. Ze ningawenzeleleli amahlwempu, okanye nibe nomkhethe ngakwizityebi. 16Ningasasazi ulwimi ngabanye abantu, ningenzi nantoni na eya kubeka ubomi bomnye umntu esichengeni. Kaloku ndinguNdikhoyo.

17“Nize ningabi nanqala mntwini. Mkhalimele umntu owonayo, hleze nawe ube netyala. 18Ze ningaziphindezeli mntwini, okanye nimbambe isixhiba, koko nina mthandeni ummelwane wenu, kanye ngale ndlela nizithanda ngayo. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo.

19“Yithobeleni imimiselo yam. Ze ningazekisi izilwanyana ezingelohlobo lunye, ningahlwayeli ndidi zahlukileyo zembewu ntsimini-nye, ningazambathi iimpahla ezilukwe ngemisonto eendidi zahlukileyo.

20“Ukuba indoda ithe yalala nekhobokazana esekuvunyelwene ngalo ukuba lithengiswe komnye, phofu lingekahlawulelwa, kufuneka bohlwaywe ngokulingene isenzo eso, kodwa bangàbulawa – kaloku ibiselikhobokazana. 21Loo ndoda kufuneka izisele uNdikhoyo inkunzi yegusha esangweni *lesibingelelo, ibe lidini lentlawulo. 22Uya kuthi ke umbingeleli enze ngayo idini longxengxezelo, aze ke loo mntu axolelwe isono sakhe nguNdikhoyo.

23“Nakufika eKanana ze nithi xa nityala imithi niyithathe njengemithi *enomlaza kwiminyaka emithathu yokuqala. Ngelo xesha ke ze ningatyi nto kuyo. 24Kunyaka wesine zonke iziqhamo mazinikelwe kum, mna Ndikhoyo, zibe ngumnikelo wombulelo. 25Kodwa kowesihlanu unyaka ningazitya iziqhamo. Xa nenjenjalo sochuma ngakumbi isivuno. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo, Thixo wenu.

26“Ningatyi nyama inegazi. Ze ningavumisi, ningenzi naluphi na uhlobo lwemilingo. 27-28Xa nizilela abangasekhoyo ze ningazichebi iinwele ezisemacaleni entloko, neendevu ningaziphunguli. Ze ningavambi, ningenzi ntlanga emzimbeni. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo.

29“Ningazingcolisi iintombi zenu ngokuzenza amahenyukazi. Xa nenjenjalo ilizwe loba lilizwe lobuhenyukazi, lize ke lizale yinkohlakalo. 30Nina ze niyigcine *iMihla yam yokuPhumla, nisihlonele isibingelelo sam. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo.

31“Ningathathi ntonga niye kuvumisa kubantu abeva ngababhubhileyo. Xa nenza loo nto noba nezothe. Kutsho mna Ndikhoyo, Thixo wenu.

32“Bahloneleni abantu abadala, nibanike imbeko, nimhlonele uThixo wenu – ndinguNdikhoyo.

33“Ze ningabacinezeli abantu basemzini abahlala phakathi kwenu. 34Baphatheni ngokufanayo nabayinzala, nibathande kanye ngale ndlela nizithanda ngayo nani. Kaloku nani benikhe nangabantu basemzini eJiputa. Nditsho ke mna Ndikhoyo, Thixo wenu.

35“Ze ningaqhathi bani ngokusebenzisa imilinganiselo engeyiyo, nditsho eyobude nobunzima neyesixa. 36Sebenzisani imilinganiselo engenankqatho, nokuba yeyobude, nokuba yeyobunzima, nokuba yeyenani. Nditsho mna Ndikhoyo Thixo endanikhuphayo eJiputa. 37Yithobeleni yonke imimiselo yam nemithetho yam; kaloku ndinguNdikhoyo.”
