35 ¹UBawo wethu wathetha kuMoses ezinkqantosini zakwaMowabhi, ngaseYordan malunga neYeriko, wathi:

²“Bawisele umthetho oonyana bakaSirayeli ukuba babanike abaLevi, kwilifa abalithabathileyo, imizi yokuhlala, nedlelo elijikeleze loo mizi, libe ngabaLevi. ³Le mizi yoba ngeyabo bahlale kuyo; amadlelo wona abe ngawezinkomo zabo, nemfuyo yabo, nazo zonke izinto zabo eziphilileyo.

⁴“Amadlelo emizi eniya kuyinika abaLevi aya kuthabathela eludongeni lomzi, aye kufikelela kwaziikubhite eziliwaka elinamakhulu amahlanu ngeenxa zonke. ⁵Nolinganisa ngaphandle komzi: iikubhite eziliwaka ezintathu ngasempumalanga, neziliwaka ezintathu ngasezantsi, neziliwaka ezintathu ngasentshonalanga, neziliwaka ezintathu ngasentla, umzi ube phakathi. Elo lelodlelo lemizi yabo.

⁶“Kuloo mizi niya kuyinika abaLevi, mithandathu yoba yimizi yokusabela, lapho umbulali anokubalekela khona; ngaphandle kwaleyo, nobanika imizi engamashumi amane anamibini.

⁷“Yonke imizi eniya kuyinika abaLevi yoba yimizi engamashumi amane anesibhozo, ndawonye namadlelo ayo. ⁸Kwilizwe loonyana bakaSirayeli, nobanika abaLevi imizi—kwizizwe ezikhulu nibanike okungaphezulu, kwezincinane okungaphantsi; elowo makanikele ngokwelifa alithabathileyo.”

UBawo wethu uyaphinda uthethe

⁹UBawo wethu wathetha kuMoses, wathi:

¹⁰“Thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli, uthi kubo: Xa niwela iYordan ningena ezweni lakwaKanan, ¹¹nozinyulela imizi, imizi yokusabela, lapho onokubalekela khona wonke umntu obulele omnye ngengozi engazi. ¹²Le mizi yoba yindawo yokusabela kuni kumphindezeleli wegazi, ukuze umbulali angafi ade eme phambi kwebandla ukuba agwetywe. ¹³Imizi eniya kuyinika yoba yimizi emithandathu yokusabela kuni. ¹⁴Nonika imizi emithathu phesheya kweYordan, nemizi emithathu ezweni lakwaKanan; yoba yimizi yokusabela. ¹⁵Le mizi mithandathu yoba yindawo yokusabela koonyana bakaSirayeli, nowasemzini, nolundwendwe ophakathi kwabo, ukuze abalekele kuyo wonke umntu obulele omnye ngengozi.

¹⁶“Ke ukuba umntu umbethe omnye ngento yesinyithi wafa, loo mntu ulibethayo ungumbulali—umbulali makabulawe afe. ¹⁷Ukuba umbethe ngelitye asesandleni elinokumbulala, wafa, ungumbulali; umbulali makabulawe afe. ¹⁸Okanye ukuba umbethe ngesixhobo somthi esesandleni esinokubulala, wafa, ungumbulali; umbulali makabulawe afe. ¹⁹Umphindezeleli wegazi nguye oya kumbulala umbulali; xa aqubisana naye, makambulale. ²⁰Ukuba umtyhalile ngentiyo, nokuba umphose ngento emlalele, wafa, ²¹nokuba umbethe ngesandla ngentiyo, wafa, lowo umbethayo makabulawe afe—ungumbulali. Umphindezeleli wegazi makambulale umbulali xa amfumana.

²²“Kodwa ukuba umtyhale ngesiquphe engenantiyo, nokuba umphose nangantoni na engamlalele, ²³nokuba, engamboni, uwise phezu kwakhe ilitye elinokubulala, wafa—engelutshaba lwakhe, engafuni kumenzakalisa, ²⁴ibandla loba ngumgwebi phakathi kombulali nomphindezeleli wegazi ngokwala masiko. ²⁵Ibandla limhlangule umbulali esandleni somphindezeleli wegazi, limbuyisele emzini wokusabela abalekele kuwo; makahlale khona ade afe umbingeleli omkhulu, lowo wathanjiswa ngeoli engcwele. ^a a v25 Lowo usekuthinjweni ukhululeka kuphela xa efa umbingeleli omkhulu—ukufa okukhulula onetyala. UYesu, umbingeleli wethu omkhulu, ukhulula inkululeko yethu ngokufa kwakhe.

²⁶“Kodwa ukuba umbulali uthe waphuma emdeni womzi wokusabela, apho abalekele khona, ²⁷ukuba umphindezeleli wegazi umfumene ngaphandle komda womzi wakhe wokusabela, wambulala umbulali, akanatyala lagazi. ²⁸Umbulali makahlale emzini wakhe wokusabela ade afe umbingeleli omkhulu; kuphela emva kokufa kombingeleli omkhulu angabuyela ezweni lakhe. ²⁹Ezi zinto zoba ngummiselo ongunaphakade kuni ezizukulwaneni zenu, kwiindawo zonke enihleli kuzo.

³⁰“Wonke umntu obulele omnye makabulawe njengombulali, ngokungqinwa ngamangqina; ingqina elinye lodwa alinakungqina ngomntu ukuze afe.

³¹“Ningathabathi ntlawulo yobomi bombulali omfanelwe kukufa—makabulawe afe. ³²Ningathabathi ntlawulo kulowo ubalekele emzini wakhe wokusabela, nimvumele abuyele ahlale ezweni ngaphambi kokuba afe umbingeleli.

³³“Ningalonakalisi ilizwe enihleli kulo—igazi liyalingcolisa ilizwe, aye ilizwe lingenakucanyagushelwa ngenxa yegazi eliphalazwe kulo, ngaphandle kwegazi lalowo ulophalazayo. ³⁴Ningalenzi inqambi ilizwe, nihleli kulo nje, nam ndihleli phakathi kwenu; kuba mna, uBawo wenu, ndihleli phakathi koonyana bakaSirayeli.”
