25 ¹UBawo wethu wathetha kuMoses phezu kweNtaba yaseSinayi, wathi:

²“Thetha koonyana bakwaSirayeli, uthi kubo: Xa nifika ezweni endininika lona, ilizwe loba nesabatha yokuphumla kum. ³Iminyaka emithandathu wohlwayela intsimi yakho, ithungele iminyaka emithandathu isidiliya sakho, ubuthe iziqhamo zaso. ⁴Kodwa umnyaka wesixhenxe uyisabatha yokuphumla ngokupheleleyo kwelizwe, isabatha kum; uze ungayihlwayeli intsimi yakho, ungasithungeli isidiliya sakho. ^a a v4 Minyaka le yesixhenxe ilizwe ngokwalo lalisiphumla — kungahlwayelwa, kungathungelwa — likholose ngoBawo wethu ukuba uya kubonelela. Yandisa isabatha yeveki ise emhlabeni. ⁵Uze ungavuni oko kuzihlumeleyo, ungabuthi iidiliya kwisidiliya sakho esingathungelwanga; ilizwe lofumana umnyaka wokuphumla ngokupheleleyo. ⁶Isabatha yelizwe yoba kukudla kwenu—wena, nekhoboka lakho, nekhobokazana lakho, nomqeshwa wakho, nomphambukeli ophambukele kuwe, ⁷nemfuyo yakho nezilo zasendle ezisezweni lakho—konke oko likuvelisayo kube kukudla.

Ukubala Kusiya kwiJubili

⁸“Uze uzibalele iisabatha ezisixhenxe zeminyaka, izihlandlo ezisixhenxe zeminyaka esixhenxe, kube yiminyaka emashumi mane anesithoba iyonke. ⁹Vuthela uyolule ngesigodlo ngolweshumi lwenyanga yesixhenxe; ngomhla woCamagusho, vuthela kulo lonke ilizwe lenu. ¹⁰Ningcwalise umnyaka wamashumi mahlanu: nimemeze inkululeko ezweni kubo bonke abemi balo. Yijubili kuni—elowo abuyele elifeni lakhe, elowo abuyele emzalwaneni wakhe. ^b b v10 IJubili yayilunyukelo lomnyaka wamashumi mahlanu: amatyala ecinyiwe, amakhoboka ekhululiwe, nomhlaba welifa ubuyela kubeninimba bawo — ukubuyela kwendalo uBawo wethu awakumisela ebomini babantu bakhe. ¹¹Umnyaka wamashumi mahlanu uyijubili kuni: uze ningahlwayeli nto, ningavuni ngqolowa izihlumeleyo, ningabuthi zidiliya zingathungelwanga. ¹²Ngokuba iyijubili; yoba ngcwele kuni. Nodla kuphela oko intsimi ikuvelisayo.

¹³“Ngawo lo mnyaka weJubili elowo kuni woba ubuyela elifeni lakhe.

¹⁴“Xa uthe wathengisa, mhlawumbi wathenga kummelwane wakho, uze ningaqhathani omnye nomnye. ¹⁵Yithenge kummelwane wakho ngokweminyaka emva kwejubili; yena uthengise kuwe ngokweminyaka yezivuno. ¹⁶Ulenyuse inani ngokweminyaka emininzi, ulithobe ngokweminyaka emincinane, ngokuba uthengise kuwe inani lezivuno. ¹⁷Uze ningoni omnye nomnye, nize noyike uBawo wenu, kuba ndinguBawo wenu.

¹⁸“Yenzani imimiselo yam, nigcine imigaqo yam, niyenze, nize nihlale ezweni nikholosile. ¹⁹Ilizwe lovelisa iziqhamo zalo, nidle nihluthe, nihlale kulo nikholosile. ²⁰Ukuba nithe, ‘Sodla ntoni na ngomnyaka wesixhenxe, ngenxa yokuba singahlwayeli, singabuthi ungeniselo lwethu?’ ²¹Ndoyiwisela intsikelelo yam phezu kwenu ngomnyaka wesithandathu, ivelise isivuno seminyaka emithathu. ²²Nohlwayela ngomnyaka wesibhozo, nibe nisadla isivuno esidala; kude kufike isivuno somnyaka wesithoba, nidle esidala.

Ilizwe LelikaBawo Wethu

²³“Ilizwe makungathengiswa ngalo unaphakade, kuba lelam; kuba nina ningabaphambukeli nabasemzini kum kodwa. ²⁴Kulo lonke ilizwe lelifa lenu, uze unike ilungelo lokukhululwa kwelizwe ngentlawulelo.

²⁵“Ukuba umzalwana wakho uthe waba lihlwempu, wathengisa ngenxalenye yelizwe lakhe, umkhululi wakhe osondeleyo woza akukhulule oko umzalwana wakhe akuthengisileyo. ^c c v25 Umkhululi osondeleyo yayililungu losapho elikufutshane elinelungelo nembopheleleko yokuwubuyisela umhlaba othengisiweyo phantsi kwembandezelo. ²⁶Ukuba umntu akanamkhululi, kodwa waba nengqwebo wafumana into elingene ukuwukhulula ngentlawulelo, ²⁷wobala iminyaka emva kokuthengisa, abuyise intsalela kulowo wayithengayo, abuyele elifeni lakhe. ²⁸Kodwa ukuba uswele okokumbuyisela, oko akuthengisileyo kuya kuhlala kulowo wayithengayo kude kube yiJubili; kokhululwa ngaloo mnyaka, abuyele elifeni lakhe.

²⁹“Ukuba umntu uthe wathengisa ngendlu esemzini onodonga, ilungelo lokuyikhulula ngentlawulelo liya kuhlala umnyaka wonke emva kokuthengisa. Loo mnyaka wonke umthengisi woligcina eli lungelo. ³⁰Ukuba ayikhululwanga ngentlawulelo phakathi komnyaka wonke, indlu esemzini onodonga yoba yeyomthengi wayo unaphakade, isizukulwana ngesizukulwana; ayisayi kukhululwa ngejubili. ³¹Izindlu zemizana engenazindonga ziya kubalelwa njengamasimi avulekileyo; zingakhululwa ngentlawulelo, ziphume ngeJubili.

³²“AbaLevi banokuhlala bezikhulula ngentlawulelo izindlu ezisemizini yabaLevi abanayo. ³³Ukuba umLevi akayikhululi ngentlawulelo, indlu ethengisiweyo emzini wakhe iya kukhululwa ngejubili, kuba izindlu ezisemizini yabaLevi zililifa labo phakathi koonyana bakwaSirayeli. ³⁴Kodwa amasimi amadlelo ajikeleze imizi yabo akanakuthengiswa; alilifa labo elingunaphakade.

Umzalwana Wakho Owayo

³⁵“Ukuba umzalwana wakho uthe waba lihlwempu, akaba nako ukuziphilisa phakathi kwenu, uze umncede njengomphambukeli nasemzini, ukuze adle ubomi phakathi kwenu. ³⁶Uze ungambizi nzala, ungabizi nenzuzo, kodwa woyike uBawo wakho, ukuze umzalwana wakho adle ubomi ecaleni lakho. ³⁷Uze ungamboleki imali yakho ngenzala, ungamniki ukudla kwakho ufuna inzuzo. ³⁸NdinguBawo wenu, owanikhuphayo eYiputa ukuba andinike iKanan, ndibe nguBawo wenu.

³⁹“Ukuba umzalwana wakho osecaleni lakho uthe waba lihlwempu, wazithengisa kuwe, uze ungamsebenzisi njengekhoboka. ⁴⁰Woba nawe njengomqeshwa, njengomphambukeli, esebenza nawe kude kube nguMnyaka weJubili. ⁴¹Aze ke yena nabantwana bakhe baphume kuwe, abuyele emzalwaneni wakhe, nasemhlabeni welifa looyise. ⁴²Kuba bangabakhonzi bam, endabakhupha eYiputa; makungathengiswa ngabo njengokuthengiswa kwamakhoboka. ⁴³Uze ungamlawuli kalukhuni, kodwa woyike uBawo wakho.

⁴⁴“Ke amakhoboka akho namakhobokazana akho: unokuwathenga ezintlangeni eziningqongileyo. ⁴⁵Nakundwendwe oluphambukele phakathi kwenu wonokuthenga, nasezindlwini zabo ezihlala nani, abazalelwe ezweni lenu; babe yimpahla yenu. ⁴⁶Wobashiyela abantwana bakho babe lilifa, ubaphathe ubomi babo bonke. Ke bona abazalwana benu, oonyana bakaSirayeli, uze ningalawulani kalukhuni, omnye phezu komnye.

⁴⁷“Xa umphambukeli nondwendwe oluphakathi kwakho luthe lwaba nengqwebo, waza umzalwana wakho waba lihlwempu ngakulo, wazithengisa kumphambukeli, nokuba kwisebe losapho lwalowo mphambukeli, ⁴⁸angakhululwa ngentlawulelo emva kokuzithengisa kwakhe. Omnye kubazalwana bakhe angamkhulula. ⁴⁹Uyisekazi, nokuba ngunyana kayisekazi, angamkhulula, nokuba ngumzalwana osondeleyo kuye wasemzalwaneni wakhe angamkhulula; nokuba uthe waba nako, azikhulule ngokwakhe. ⁵⁰Yena nalowo wamthengayo baya kubala kuthabathela emnyakeni azithengisa ngawo kuse emnyakeni wentlokoma; inani lentengo yakhe libe ngokweminyaka, njengomvuzo womqeshwa. ⁵¹Ukuba iminyaka esaseleyo mininzi, wobuyisa isabelo sentengo yakhe ngokulingene nayo, sibe yintlawulelo yakhe. ⁵²Ukuba iminyaka esaseleyo imbalwa kuse emnyakeni wentlokoma, wozibalela, abuyise intlawulelo yakhe ngokwaloo minyaka. ⁵³Woba naye njengomqeshwa womnyaka ngomnyaka; uze angalawulwa kalukhuni phambi kwakho. ⁵⁴Ukuba uthe akakhululwa ngezo ndawo, aze aphume yena nabantwana bakhe ndawonye ngomnyaka wentlokoma. ⁵⁵Kuba oonyana bakaSirayeli bangabakhonzi bam; bangabakhonzi bam endabakhupha eYiputa. NdinguBawo wenu.”
