Isahluko 12

1 UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:
2 “Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Uma owesifazane ekhulelwa, azale umfana, uyakuba ngongcolile izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; njengasemihleni yokungcola ngefindo lakhe wohlala engcolile.
3 Ngosuku lwesishiyagalombili inyama yejwabu lakhe iyakusokwa.
4 Abesehlala esegazini lokuhlambuluka izinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu nantathu, angathinti lutho olungcwele, angangeni endlini engcwele, zize ziphelele izinsuku zokuhlambuluka kwakhe.
5 Kepha uma ezala intombazana, makabe ngongcolile amasonto amabili njengasekungcoleni ngefindo lakhe, ahlale esegazini lokuhlambuluka izinsuku ezingamashumi ayisithupha nesithupha.
6 “ ‘Nanxa seziphelile izinsuku zokuhlambuluka kwakhe ngomfana noma ngentombazana, makalethe imvu enomnyaka munye, ibe ngumnikelo wokushiswa, nephuphu lejuba noma ihobhe, libe ngumnikelo wesono, akulethe ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana kumpristi,
7 yena anikele ngakho phambi kukaJehova, amenzele ukubuyisana, aze ahlambuluke emthonjeni wegazi lakhe. Yilowo umthetho wozalayo umfana noma intombazana.
8 “ ‘Uma amandla akhe enganeli imvu, khona uyakuthatha amahobhe amabili noma amaphuphu amabili amajuba, elinye libe ngumnikelo wokushiswa, elinye libe ngumnikelo wesono, umpristi amenzele ukubuyisana, aze ahlambuluke.’ ”
