16“ ‘Nxa umuntu eshaywa yizibuko, uyakugeza wonke umzimba wakhe ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe. 17Zonke izingubo nazo zonke izikhumba elikuzo izibuko lakhe ziyakuhlanzwa ngamanzi, zibe ngezingcolile kuze kuhlwe. 18Nowesifazane elale naye indoda, imlalile yamthela ngamalotha, bayakugeza bobabili ngamanzi, babe ngabangcolile kuze kuhlwe.
19“ ‘Uma owesifazane ecucuza, ukucucuza kwakhe kube yigazi, uyakuhlala engcolile izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; bonke abamthintayo bayakuba ngabangcolile kuze kuhlwe.
20“ ‘Zonke izinto alala kuzo ekungcoleni kwakhe ziyakuba ngezingcolile; nakho konke ahlala kukho kuyakuba ngokungcolile. 21Yilowo nalowo othinta umbhede wakhe uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe, ageze ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe. 22Yilowo nalowo othinta noma intoni ahlala kuyo uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe, ageze ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe. 23Uma kusembhedeni noma kukuyiphi into ahlala kuyo, nxa kuthintwa ngumuntu, yena uyakuhlala engcolile kuze kuhlwe.
24“ ‘Uma indoda ilala naye, ukungcola kwakhe kube kuyo, iyakuba ngengcolile izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; nayo yonke imibhede alala kuyo iyakuba ngengcolile.
25“ ‘Uma owesifazane ecucuza igazi lakhe izinsuku eziningi, zingabi ngezokungcola kwakhe, noma ecucuza kudlula isikhathi sokungcola kwakhe, zonke izinsuku zokucucuza kokungcola kwakhe uyakuba njengasezinsukwini zokungcola kwakhe; ungcolile. 26Imibhede yonke alala kuyo zonke izinsuku zokucucuza kwakhe iyakuba kuye njengombhede wokungcola kwakhe; zonke izinto ahlala kuzo ziyakuba ngezingcolile njengokungcola kwefindo lakhe. 27Yilowo nalowo othinta lezo zinto uyakuba ngongcolile, ahlanze izingubo zakhe, ageze ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe.
