UMose namalunga bayakhuluma
Weqa iJordani, uhuqe amatshe amakhulu ngodaka, ubhale kuwo lo mthetho ngokucacile; wakhe i-altare likaBaba wakho ngamatshe angabaziwe, udle khona iminikelo yokuthula. Bese izizwe eziyisithupha zima eGerizimi neziyisithupha e-Ebali, lapho amaLevi ememeza iziqalekiso eziyishumi nambili futhi bonke abantu bephendula bathi Amen.
27 1UMose namalunga akwa-Israyeli bayala abantu bathi: “Gcinani yonke imiyalo enginiyala ngayo namuhla. 2Lapho niwela iJordani ningena ezweni uBaba wenu aninika lona, nimise amatshe amakhulu niwanameke ngodaka olumhlophe. 3Nibhale kuwo wonke amazwi alo mthetho lapho seniwelile, ukuze ningene ezweni uBaba wenu aninika lona—izwe eligeleza ubisi noju, njengoba uBaba wethu anithembisa. 4Lapho niwela iJordani, nimise lawa matshe entabeni i-Ebali, njengoba nginiyala namuhla, niwanameke ngodaka olumhlophe. a a v4 Intaba i-Ebali neNtaba iGerizimi ziyizintaba ezimbili eziphahla idolobha laseShekemi maphakathi neKhanani; umkhosi wesivumelwano wabeka isibusiso phezu kwenye isiqalekiso phezu kwenye. 5Lapho, nakhele uBaba wenu i-altare, i-altare lamatshe; angathintwa ngethuluzi lensimbi. 6I-altare likaBaba wenu nilakhe ngamatshe angabazwanga, ninikele phezu kwalo iminikelo yokushiswa kuBaba wenu. 7Nihlabe iminikelo yokuthula niyidle lapho, nijabule phambi kukaBaba wenu. 8Nibhale ematsheni wonke amazwi alo mthetho, kucace kahle impela.”
Niyisizwe sakhe
9UMose nabapristi abangamaLevi batshela wonke u-Israyeli bathi: “Thula, Israyeli, ulalele. Namuhla usube yisizwe sikaBaba wakho. 10Lalela uBaba wakho, ugcine imiyalo yakhe nezimiso zakhe engikuyala ngazo namuhla.”
11Ngalona lolo suku uMose wayala abantu wathi: 12“Lapho seniwelile iJordani, laba bayokuma entabeni iGerizimi ukuze babusise abantu: uSimeyoni, uLevi, uJuda, u-Isakare, uJosefa, noBhenjamini. 13Laba bona bayokuma entabeni i-Ebali ngenxa yesiqalekiso: uRubeni, uGadi, u-Asheri, uZebuloni, uDani, noNafetali. 14AmaLevi ayokumemeza kubo bonke abantu bakwa-Israyeli ngezwi elikhulu athi: 15‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani obaza noma abumba isithombe—into enengekayo kuBaba wethu, eyenziwe yizandla zengcweti—asimise ngasese.’ Bonke abantu kumele baphendule bathi, ‘Ameni.’”
16‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani odelela uyise noma unina.’ Bonke abantu bathi, ‘Ameni.’
17‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani osusa umngcele kamakhelwane wakhe.’ Bonke abantu bayothi, ‘Ameni.’

19‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani ophambanisa ukwahlulelwa okulungileyo komfokazi, nentandane, nomfelokazi.’ Bonke abantu bayothi, ‘Ameni.’
20Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani olala nomkayise, ngokuba uhlambalaze umshado kayise. Bonke abantu kumele bathi, ‘Ameni.’
21‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani olala nanoma yisiphi isilwane.’ Bonke abantu bayothi, ‘Ameni.’
22‘Uqalekisiwe noma ngubani olala nodadewabo, indodakazi kayise noma indodakazi kanina.’ Bonke abantu bayothi, ‘Ameni.’
