Chapter 22
1 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi,
2 Thetha kuAron nakoonyana bakhe, bazahlule ezintweni ezingcwele zoonyana bakaSirayeli, bangalihlambeli igama lam elingcwele ezintweni abazingcwalisayo kum: ndinguYehova.
3 Yithi kubo, Ezizukulwaneni zenu, bonke abantu abangabembewu yenu, abasukuba besondela ezintweni ezingcwale, abazingcwalisayo oonyana bakaSirayeli kuYehova, benobunqambi babo, loo miphefumlo yonqanyulwa, ingabikho ebusweni bam: ndinguYehova.
4 Umntu ngomntu ongowembewu ka-Aron, oneqhenqa, nobhobhozayo, makangazidli izinto ezingcwele, ade ahlambuluke. Nalowo umchukumisayo wonke ubani oyinqambi ngofileyo, nendoda esukuba incola;
5 nomntu osukuba echukumisa yonke into enyakazelayo, eyinqambi kuya, nokuba ngumntu oyinqambi kuye ebunqambini bakhe bonke:
6 umphefumlo osukuba uyichukumisa into enjalo, woba yinqambi, uhlwise; lowo makangadli ezintweni ezingcwele. Ke makawuhlambe umzimba wakhe emanzini;
7 lakutshona ilanga, wothi ehlambulukile adle emveni koko ezintweni ezingcwele; ngokuba kukudla kwakhe.
8 Into ezifeleyo neqwengiweyo makangayidli, azenze inqambi ngayo: ndinguYehova.
9 Ize basigcine isigxina sam, bangazithwalisi isono, bafe ngaso, ngokuba besihlambele sona: ndinguYehova obangcwalisayo.
10 Wonke ongengowakuni aze angadli nto ingcwele; olundwendwe lombingeleli, nomqeshwa, aze angadli nto ingcwele.
11 Umbingeleli xa athe wathenga umntu, waba yintengo yemali yakhe, makadle kuyo lowo, kwanozelelwe endlwini yakhe; abo bodla ukudla kwakhe.
12 Intombi yombingeleli, xa ithe yendela kwindoda engeyeyakuni, yona mayingadli emrhumeni weento ezingcwele.
13 Intombi yombingeleli, xa ithe yangumhlolokazi, nokuba ithe yaliwa, ingazalanga, yabuyela endlwini kayise, yokudla ukudla kukayise njengasebutsheni bayo. Wonke ongengowakuni makangadli kuko.
14 Umntu othe wayidla into engcwele ngokulahleka, makongeze isihlanu sayo kuyo, ayinike umbingeleli into engcwele.
15 Ize bangazihlambeli izinto ezingcwele zoonyana bakaSirayeli, ezo bazirhumela uYehova,
16 babathwalise ubugwenxa betyala ekudleni kwabo izinto zabo ezingcwele: ngokuba ndinguYehova obangcwalisayo.
17 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi,
18 Thetha kuAron nakoonyana bakhe, nakoonyana bonke bakaSirayeli, uthi kubo, Umntu ngomntu wendlu kaSirayeli, nowakubaphambukeli abakwaSirayeli, osukuba esondeza umsondezo wakhe ngokubhekisele kwizibhambathiso zabo zonke, nangokubhekisele kwimibingelelo yabo yonke yokuqhutywa yintliziyo, asukuba ewusondeza kuYehova, ukuba ube lidini elinyukayo:
19 wothi, ukuze unikholekise, ube liduna eligqibeleleyo lasezinkomeni, nokuba lelasezigusheni, nelasezibhokhweni.
20 Izinto zonke ezinesiphako ize ningazisondezi, ngokuba azisayi kunikholekisa.
21 Umntu, xa athe wasondeza umbingelelo woxolo kuYehova, ukuba ube ngowesibhambathiso esibalulekileyo, nokuba ube ngowokuqhutywa yintliziyo, oziinkomo noyimpahla emfutshane: uze ube ngogqibeleleyo ukuze ukholeke, uze ungabi nasiphako nasiphi.
22 Eziziimfama, ezaphukileyo, ezilinyaziweyo, ezinokhwekhwe, ezinesitshanguba, ize ningazisondezi ezo kuYehova, ninganikeli ngazo ukudla kwasemlilweni esibingelelweni kuYehova.
23 Inkomo negusha enendawo eyolukileyo, neshwabeneyo, ungayenza umbingelelo wokuqhutywa yintliziyo; ke ayiyi kukholekisa ukuba ingowesibhambathiso.
24 Into emasende atyunyuziweyo, nakhandiweyo, naqhiwulweyo, nanqunyulweyo, ize ningayisondezi kuYehova. Ezweni lenu ze ningenjenjalo.
25 Nasesandleni sowolunye uhlanga ize ningamkeli nisondeze ukudla koThixo wenu kwezo nto, nakuziphi; ngokuba ukonakala kwazo kukuzo, isiphako sikuzo; aziyi kunikholekisa.
26 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi,
27 Inkomo, negusha, nebhokhwe, xa izalwayo, yoba mihla isixhenxe phantsi konina. Kuthabathela kusuku lwesibhozo nangasemva kwalo, iya kukholekisa, ibe ngumsondezo wasemlilweni kuYehova.
28 Inkomo, nokuba yigusha, ize ningayixheli ngamini-nye netakane layo.
29 Xa nithe nawubingelela umbingelelo wombulelo kuYehova, nowubingelela ukuba unikholekise.
30 Wodliwa kwangaloo mhla, ningashiyi nto kuwo kude kuse: ndinguYehova.
31 Ize niyigcine imithetho yam, niyenze: ndinguYehova.
32 Ize ningalihlambeli igama lam elingcwele; ndongcwaliswa phakathi koonyana bakaSirayeli: ndinguYehova oningcwalisayo,
33 onikhuphileyo ezweni laseYiputa, ukuze ndibe nguThixo wenu: ndinguYehova.
