Ukugcotshwa kwabapristi

1UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: 2“Thabatha u-Aroni namadodana akhe kanye naye, nezambatho, namafutha okugcoba, nenkunzi yomnikelo wesono, nezinqama zombili, neqoma lezinkwa ezingenamvubelo, 3ubuthele inhlangano yonke ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana.” 4UMose wenza njengalokho uJehova emyalile; inhlangano yabuthelwa ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana.

5UMose wayesethi kuyo inhlangano: “Nansi into uJehova ayale ngayo ukuba yenziwe.” 6UMose waletha u-Aroni namadodana akhe, wabageza ngamanzi. 7Wamfaka ibhantshi, wambhincisa ibhande,* wamembathisa ijazi; wamfaka ingubo yamahlombe, wambhincisa ibhande elifekethisiweyo lengubo yamahlombe, wayibophela kuye ngalo. 8Wamfaka isihlangu sesifuba, nasesihlangwini sesifuba wabeka i-Urimi neThumimi.* 9Wafaka isigqoko ekhanda lakhe, nasesigqokweni ngaphambili wafaka ungcwecwe wegolide, umqhele ongcwele, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

10UMose wathatha amafutha okugcoba, waligcoba itabernakele* nakho konke okuphakathi kwalo, wakungcwelisa. 11Wafafaza ngawo i-altare kasikhombisa, waligcoba i-altare kanye nezitsha zonke zalo, nomcengezi nesinqe sawo, ukuba kungcweliswe. 12Wathela amafutha okugcoba ekhanda lika-Aroni, wamgcoba ukuba angcweliswe. 13UMose wayeseletha amadodana ka-Aroni, wawembathisa amabhantshi, wawabhincisa amabhande,* wawafaka izigqoko, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

14Waletha nenkunzi yomnikelo wesono; u-Aroni namadodana akhe babeka izandla zabo enhloko yenkunzi yomnikelo wesono. 15Wayeseyihlaba; uMose wathatha igazi, walibheca ezimpondweni ze-altare nxazonke ngomunwe wakhe, waliphothula i-altare, walithulula igazi ngasesinqeni se-altare, walingcwelisa ukuba alenzele ukubuyisana. 16Wathatha onke amanoni aphezu kwezibilini, namanoni aphezu kwesibindi, nezinso zombili namanoni azo, uMose wakushisa e-altare. 17Kepha inkunzi nesikhumba sayo, nenyama yayo, nomswani wayo, wakushisa ngomlilo ngaphandle kwekamu,* njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

18Wayeseletha inqama yomnikelo wokushiswa; u-Aroni namadodana akhe babeka izandla zabo enhloko yenqama. 19Wayihlaba, uMose wafafaza i-altare ngegazi nxazonke. 20Wayeseyihlahlela inyama izitho; uMose washisa inhloko nezitho namanoni. 21Wahlanza izibilini namanqina ngamanzi; uMose washisa yonke inqama e-altare; yayingumnikelo wokushiswa, waba yiphunga elimnandi, umnikelo womlilo kuJehova, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

22Waletha nenye inqama, inqama yokwahlukaniselwa; u-Aroni namadodana akhe babeka izandla zabo enhloko yenqama. 23Wayihlaba; uMose wathatha igazi layo, walibheca esicutshini sendlebe yokunene ka-Aroni, nasesithupheni sesandla sakhe sokunene, nakuqukula wonyawo lwakhe lokunene. 24Wayeseletha amadodana ka-Aroni, uMose walibheca igazi esicutshini sendlebe yabo yokunene, nasesithupheni sesandla sabo sokunene, nakuqukula wonyawo lwabo lokunene; uMose wafafaza i-altare ngegazi nxazonke. 25Wawathatha amanoni, nomsila ononileyo, nawo onke amanoni aphezu kwezibilini, namanoni aphezu kwesibindi, nezinso zombili namanoni azo, nomlenze wokunene, 26naseqomeni lezinkwa ezingenamvubelo elalisebusweni bukaJehova wathatha iqebelengwane laba linye elingenamvubelo, neqebelengwane laba linye lesinkwa samafutha, nomqathane munye, wakubeka phezu kwamanoni naphezu komlenze wokunene, 27wakubeka konke ezandleni zika-Aroni, nasezandleni zamadodana akhe, wakuzulisa kwaba ngumnikelo wokuzuliswa phambi kukaJehova. 28UMose wayesekuthatha ezandleni zabo, wakushisa e-altare emnikelweni wokushiswa; kwakungokokwahlukaniselwa, kwaba yiphunga elimnandi, umnikelo womlilo kuJehova. 29UMose wathatha isifuba, wasizulisa saba ngumnikelo wokuzuliswa phambi kukaJehova; sasiyisabelo sikaMose sasenqameni yokwahlukaniselwa, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

30UMose wayesethatha amafutha okugcoba, negazi elalise-altare, wafafaza ngalo u-Aroni nezambatho zakhe, namadodana akhe kanye naye, nezambatho zamadodana akhe, wangcwelisa u-Aroni nezambatho zakhe, namadodana akhe kanye naye, nezambatho zamadodana akhe.

31Wathi uMose ku-Aroni nakumadodana akhe: “Phekani inyama ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana, niyidle kanye nesinkwa esiseqomeni lokwahlukaniselwa, njengalokho ngayala ngathi: ‘U-Aroni namadodana akhe bayakukudla.’ 32Okuseleyo kwenyama nokwesinkwa anokushisa ngomlilo. 33Ningaphumi emnyango wetende lokuhlangana izinsuku eziyisikhombisa, kungakapheli izinsuku zokwahlukaniselwa kwenu, ngokuba uyakunahlukanisela izinsuku eziyisikhombisa. 34UJehova uyalile ukuba kwenziwe njengalokho kwenziwe namuhla, ukuze nenzelwe ukubuyisana. 35Ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana niyakuhlala imini nobusuku izinsuku eziyisikhombisa, nisigcine isiyalezo sikaJehova, ukuze ningafi, ngokuba ngiyaliwe kanjalo.” 36U-Aroni namadodana akhe benza konke uJehova ayale ngakho ngesandla sikaMose.

Umnikelo wokuqala ka-Aroni

1Kwathi ngosuku lwesishiyagalombili uMose wabiza u-Aroni namadodana akhe namalunga akwa-Israyeli, 2wathi ku-Aroni: “Mawuzithathele ithole lenkunzi, libe ngumnikelo wesono, nenqama ibe ngumnikelo wokushiswa, okungenasici, unikele ngakho phambi kukaJehova. 3Khuluma kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Thathani impongo, ibe ngumnikelo wesono, nethole newundlu, omabili abe nomnyaka munye, angenasici, abe ngumnikelo wokushiswa, 4nenkunzi nenqama zibe yiminikelo yokuthula, zihlatshwe phambi kukaJehova, nomnikelo wempuphu oxovwe namafutha, ngokuba namuhla uJehova uyabonakala kini.’ ”

5Baletha-ke lokho uMose akuyalayo phambi kwetende lokuhlangana, nenhlangano yonke yasondela, yema phambi kukaJehova. 6Wayesethi uMose: “Nansi into uJehova ayala ngayo ukuba niyenze, kuze kubonakale kini inkazimulo kaJehova.”

7UMose wathi ku-Aroni: “Sondela e-altare, unikele ngomnikelo wakho wesono nangomnikelo wakho wokushiswa, uzenzele wena nabantu ukubuyisana, andukuba unikele ngomnikelo wabantu, ubenzele ukubuyisana, njengalokho uJehova eyalile.”

8U-Aroni wayesesondela e-altare, walihlaba ithole lomnikelo wesono ongowakhe. 9Amadodana ka-Aroni aletha igazi kuye; wagcobhoza umunwe egazini, walibheca ezimpondweni ze-altare, wathulula elinye igazi ngasesinqeni se-altare; 10kepha amanoni nezinso namanoni aphezu kwesibindi emnikelweni wesono wakushisa e-altare, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose. 11Inyama nesikhumba wakushisa ngomlilo ngaphandle kwekamu.*

12Wawuhlaba umnikelo wokushiswa; amadodana ka-Aroni aletha kuye igazi, wafafaza ngalo i-altare nxazonke. 13Anikeza kuye umnikelo wokushiswa izitho ngezitho kanye nenhloko, wakushisa e-altare. 14Wahlanza izibilini namanqina, wakushisa phezu komnikelo wokushiswa e-altare.

15Wayeseletha umnikelo wabantu, wathatha impongo yomnikelo wesono ongowabantu, wayihlaba, wanikela ngayo ngenxa yesono njengowokuqala.

16Waletha umnikelo wokushiswa, wanikela ngawo njengokwesimiso. 17Wayeseletha umnikelo wempuphu, wagcwalisa isandla sakhe ngawo, wawushisa e-altare ngaphandle komnikelo wokushiswa wasekuseni.

18Wahlaba inkunzi nenqama, zibe ngumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula ongowabantu; amadodana ka-Aroni aletha kuye igazi owafafaza ngalo i-altare nxazonke, 19namanoni enkunzi nawenqama, nomsila ononileyo, nalawo asibekela izibilini, nezinso, namanoni esibindi, 20abeka amanoni phezu kwezifuba; wawashisa amanoni e-altare; 21izifuba nomlenze wokunene wakuzulisa, kube ngumnikelo wokuzuliswa phambi kukaJehova, njengalokho uMose eyalile.

22U-Aroni waphakamisela izandla zakhe kubantu, wababusisa; wayesehla ekunikeleni ngomnikelo wesono nangomnikelo wokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula.

23OMose no-Aroni bangena etendeni lokuhlangana, babuye baphuma, bababusisa abantu; yayisibonakala inkazimulo kaJehova kubantu bonke. 24Kwaphuma umlilo ngaphambi kukaJehova, waqeda umnikelo wokushiswa namanoni e-altare; sebekubona abantu bonke bananela, bakhothamela phansi ngobuso.

Isono nesijeziso samadodana ka-Aroni

1ONadabi no-Abihu amadodana ka-Aroni bathatha bobabili imicengezi yabo yomlilo, bafaka umlilo kuyo, babeka impepho phezulu, banikela phambi kukaJehova ngomlilo ongafanele, angabayalanga ngawo. 2Kwaphuma umlilo ngaphambi kukaJehova, wabaqeda, bafa phambi kukaJehova. 3UMose wayesethi ku-Aroni: “Yikho uJehova akukhuluma, ethi:

“ ‘Kubo abaseduze nami

ngiyakungcweliswa,

phambi kwabantu bonke ngiyakukhazimuliswa.’ ”

U-Aroni wathula.

4UMose wabiza oMishayeli no-Elisafani amadodana ka-Uziyeli, uyisekazi ka-Aroni, wathi kubo: “Sondelani, nibasuse abafowenu ngaphambi kwendlu engcwele, nibakhiphele ngaphandle kwekamu.*” 5Base besondela, babasusa bembethe amabhantshi abo, babakhiphela ngaphandle kwekamu,* njengalokho eshilo uMose.

6UMose wayesethi ku-Aroni naku-Eleyazare naku-Itamari amadodana akhe: “Ningathukululi izinwele zamakhanda enu, ningaklebhuli izambatho zenu ukuba ningafi, ingathukuthelelwa yonke inhlangano, kepha abafowenu, yonke indlu yakwa-Israyeli, mabalilele ukushisa akuphembileyo uJehova. 7Ningaphumi emnyango wetende lokuhlangana, funa nife, ngokuba amafutha okugcoba kaJehova aphezu kwenu.” Benza-ke njengezwi likaMose.

8UJehova wakhuluma ku-Aroni, wathi: 9“Ungaphuzi wayini naluphuzo olunamandla, wena namadodana akho kanye nawe, nxa ningena etendeni lokuhlangana, ukuba ningafi; kuyakuba yisimiso esiphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu. 10Niyakwahlukanisa okungcwele nokungengcwele, okungcolileyo nokuhlambulukileyo, 11nize nifundise abantwana bakwa-Israyeli zonke izimiso uJehova azikhulume kubo ngesandla sikaMose.”

Izabelo zeminikelo zabapristi

12UMose wakhuluma ku-Aroni naku-Eleyazare naku-Itamari amadodana akhe aseleyo, wathi: “Thathani umnikelo wempuphu osele eminikelweni yomlilo kaJehova, niwudle ungenamvubelo ngaseceleni kwe-altare, ngokuba ungcwelengcwele, 13niwudle endaweni engcwele, ngokuba kuyimfanelo yakho nemfanelo yamadodana akho eminikelweni yomlilo kaJehova; ngokuba ngiyaliwe kanjalo. 14Isifuba sokuzuliswa nomlenze wokuphakanyiswa niyakukudla endaweni ehlambulukileyo, wena namadodana akho namadodakazi akho kanye nawe, ngokuba kuphiwe kube yimfanelo yakho nemfanelo yamadodana akho emihlatshelweni yeminikelo yokuthula yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli. 15Mabalethe umlenze wokuphakanyiswa nesifuba sokuzuliswa kanye neminikelo yomlilo yamanoni ukuba bakuzulise, kube ngumnikelo wokuzuliswa phambi kukaJehova, kube ngokwakho nokwamadodana akho kanye nawe, kube yimfanelo ephakade, njengalokho uJehova eyalile.”

16UMose wafunisisa impongo yomnikelo wesono; bheka, yayishisiwe; wabathukuthelela o-Eleyazare no-Itamari amadodana ka-Aroni aseleyo, wathi: 17“Anidlanga ngani umnikelo wesono endaweni yendlu engcwele, njengokuba ungcwelengcwele, futhi niphiwe wona ukuba nisuse ububi benhlangano, niyenzele ukubuyisana phambi kukaJehova, na? 18Bhekani, igazi lawo alingeniswanga phakathi endaweni engcwele; bekufanele ngempela ukuba niwudlele endaweni engcwele, njengalokho ngayala.”

19U-Aroni wathi kuMose: “Bheka-ke, namuhla banikele ngomnikelo wabo wesono nangomnikelo wabo wokushiswa phambi kukaJehova; nokho ngehlelwe yilokhu mina; uma bengidlile umnikelo wesono namuhla, bekuzakwamukeleka emehlweni kaJehova na?” 20Esezwile lokho uMose, kwaba kuhle emehlweni akhe.
