Nyuka uze kum
UMoses ulesa umnqophiso ngokuvakalayo, abantu baphendula besithi baya kukwenza, aze afefe igazi lomnqophiso phezu kwabo. Amadoda amakhulu enyuka intaba, abone uBawo wamaSirayeli kunongqameko lwesafire phantsi kweenyawo zakhe, adle asele. UMoses angene efini.
24 1Wathi kuMoses: “Nyukani nize kum—wena noAron, noNadabhi noAbhihu, namadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli angamashumi asixhenxe—niqubude ninqule nimgama. 2Nguye yedwa uMoses onokusondela kum; abanye mabangasondeli, nabantu mabangenyuki naye.”
3Wafika uMoses, wabaxelela abantu amazwi kaBawo wethu onke, nawo onke amasiko. Baza bonke abantu baphendula kunye, bathi: “Konke akuthethileyo uBawo wethu siya kukwenza.”
4UMoses wawabhala onke amazwi kaBawo wethu, waza wavuka kusasa, wakha isibingelelo phantsi kwentaba, wamisa iintsika ezilishumi elinazibini ngenxa yezizwe ezilishumi elinazibini zakwaSirayeli. 5Wathuma amadodana akwaSirayeli, anyusa amadini anyukayo, abingelela iinkunzi zeenkomo njengemibingelelo yoxolo kuBawo wethu. 6UMoses wathabatha isiqingatha segazi, wasibeka ezityeni; esinye isiqingatha wasitshiza esibingelelweni. 7Wandula wathabatha incwadi yomnqophiso, wayilesa ezindlebeni zabantu. Bathi: “Konke akuthethileyo uBawo wethu siya kukwenza, siphulaphule.”
8UMoses wathabatha igazi, wafefa phezu kwabantu, wathi: “Khangelani, ligazi lomnqophiso awenze nani uBawo wethu, ngokwala mazwi onke.” a a v8 Igazi laba yitywina lomnqophiso phakathi kwabantu noBawo wethu; uYesu wawathabatha kanye la mazwi phezu kwendebe—“eli ligazi lam lomnqophiso”—wenza igazi lakhe tywina lomnqophiso omtsha osigodusayo.
9Baza benyuka ooMoses noAron, noNadabhi noAbhihu, namadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli angamashumi asixhenxe. 10Bambona uBawo wakwaSirayeli; phantsi kweenyawo zakhe kwakukho into enjengomgangatho wesafire, ucwengile njengesibhakabhaka ngokwaso. 11Akazange asolule isandla sakhe kwizikhulu zakwaSirayeli; bambona uBawo wethu, badla, basela.
12UBawo wethu wathi kuMoses: “Nyuka uze kum entabeni, uhlale khona; ndiya kukunika amacwecwe amatye anomyalelo nomthetho endiwubhalileyo ukuze ubafundise.”
13UMoses wanduluka noYoshuwa umlungiseleli wakhe, waza uMoses wenyuka waya entabeni kaBawo wethu. 14Wathi kumadoda amakhulu: “Sihlaleleni apha side sibuye kuni. UAron noHure banani—osukuba enembambano makaye kubo.”
15Wathi uMoses akunyuka entabeni, ilifu layisibekela, 16ubuqaqawuli bukaBawo wethu bahlala phezu kwentaba yeSinayi, ilifu layisibekela iimini ezintandathu, ngomhla wesixhenxe wambizela uMoses esuka phakathi kwelifu. 17Koonyana bakaSirayeli, ubuqaqawuli bukaBawo wethu babonakala njengomlilo odlayo encotsheni yentaba. 18UMoses wangena phakathi kwelifu, wenyuka entabeni; uMoses wahlala entabeni iimini ezimashumi mane nobusuku obumashumi mane.
