1 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesene, Aronikizni zanasmi'ne,
UThixo wathi kuMosi lo-Aroni:
2 Kohati agehe'impinti fore hu'naza vahera nagate, famote, hamprinka Livae nagara zamagi'a krenka eri fatgo huo,
“Balani ingxenye yabaLevi abangamaKhohathi libabale ngosendo langezindlu zabo.
3 maka 30'a kafureti marerino 50'a kafuma hu'nesaza vahe'ma, seli mono nompima eri'zama eriga hu'nesaza venene'a hampri'o.
Balani wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa abeza bezosebenza emsebenzini wethente lokuhlangana.
4 Hagi Kohati naga'moza seli nompina hakare zupa amanahu eri'za erigahaze, seli mono nompima, hunagru hunte nomofo agu'afi ruotgema hu'nea zantminte kegava hugahaze.
Lo yiwo umsebenzi ozakwenziwa ngamaKhohathi ethenteni lokuhlangana, ukulondoloza yonke into engcwelengcwele.
5 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za kumazmi atre'za vunaku hanageno'a, Aroni'a mofavre naga'ane mareri'za kafanteti tvarave hantiza huhagerafi huvempage vogisia ana tvaravereti eri ano vazigahaze.
Nxa kuthuthwa kusukwa ezihonqweni, u-Aroni lamadodana akhe kabangene bayekwethula ikhetheni elisithileyo basibekele ibhokisi lobufakazi ngalo.
6 Hagi anantera hagerimpi bulimakao akru'anu refinete'za, ana agumpina hokonke tvaravenu refinete'za, tare azota antanintegahaze.
Lokhu bazakugubuzela ngezikhumba zezinyamazana, bendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka phezu kwalokho besebefaka izibambo endaweni yazo.
7 Hagi ana'ma hutesu'za bretima nentaza itamofona hokonke tvarave eri'za tafera hute'za, ofama hu'zantamina ana agofetura nente'za zuompama, kavoma, tima tagi tafe taminena nente'za, bretinena antekeno maka zupa itamofo agofetura mevava hino.
Phezu kwetafula yoBukhona bukaThixo kumele bendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bafake phezu kwalo imiganu, izinditshi lengubhe, lenkezo zeminikelo enathwayo; kuthi lesosinkwa esihlala sikhonapho sisale phezu kwayo.
8 Ana hute'za koranke tvarave reti ana makazana refiteho, ete'za ana agofetura hagerimpi bulimakao afu'mofo ukri'anu refinete'za, tare kaziga kampi erisgahu zota antanintegahaze.
Phezu kwalokhu bazakwendlala ilembu elibomvu, bembese lokho ngezikhumba zezinyamazana besebefaka izibambo ezindaweni zazo.
9 Mago hokonke tvarave eri'za tavi'ma rekru hunte'zamofo zota'ane, lamune, teve anefa resu hu'zane, zuompane, tevemofo masave tintfene, eri'zama eneriza zanena refitegahaze.
Kumele bathathe ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bembese ngalo uluthi lwesibane sokukhanyisa, kanye lezibane zalo, izintambo zesibane kanye lezibambiso zakhona, lemiganu, lezitsha zamafutha zokuthelisa kuso.
10 Hagi ana maka'zana hagerimpi bulimakao ukri'afi eri anakite'za afunte kofi azotare erinte'za anakintetere hugahaze.
Besebelugoqela kanye lezinto zalo zonke ngezikhumba zezinyamazana balufakele izibambo zokuthwala.
11 Kolire itamofo agofetura hokonke tvaravenu refitete'za, hagerimpi bulimakaomofo ukrira ana agofetu erinte'za anakite'za, tare vimago zafa antanintegahaze.
Phezu kwe-alithari legolide kabendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bakugoqele ngezikhumba zezinyamazana besebefaka izibambo zokuthwalisa endaweni yazo.
12 Anantera hokonke tvarave masine'za ana maka agu'afi eri'za eneriza zantamina (utensils) anakite'za, ana agofetura hage rimpi bulimakaomofo ukri'areti refitete'za, tare vimago zafa, zafama hu'zana vazintegahaze.
Bazathatha zonke izinto zokusebenzisa endaweni engcwelengcwele, bazigoqele ngelembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, bembese lokho ngezikhumba zezinyamazana bafake phezu kwethala lokuthwalisa.
13 Ana nehu'za, bronsire itaretira (alta) ta'nefara katenetre'za fitu tvarave eri'za ome refitegahaze.
Kumele babuthe umlotha bawususe phezu kwe-alithari elilithusi besebesendlala ilembu eliyibubende phezu kwalo.
14 Anazanke hu'za eri'zama eneriza zantamina antesazana tevefi kre kavoma, foku'ma, savolima, zompama, maka itare'ma (alta) me'nea zanena, hagerimpi bulimakao afumofo ukriteti agofetura refite'za anakite'za, zafama hu'za vanaza zafa antanintegahaze.
Besebefaka phezu kwalo zonke izitsha ezisetshenziswa emsebenzini we-alithari, kuhlanganisa lezindengezi zeziko, izitsha zokosa inyama, amafotsholo lemiganu yokuchelisa. Phezu kwalo kumele bendlale isembeso sezikhumba zezinyamazana babe sebefaka izibambo zokuthwalisa endaweni yazo.
15 Aroni'ene ne'mofavre naga'amo'zane seli nomofo agu'afi maka ruotge'ma hu'nea zantamina anakiza erise hutesage'za, ana kumateti hage'za vunaku hanage'za, Kohati ne'mofavre'moza emerigahaze. Hanki ruotge zantamina avako osugahazanki, avakoma hanazana frigahaze. Ama'i ruotge seli nompi me'nea zana, Kohati ne'mofavremoza zamagrake'za eri'za vugahaze.
Ngemva kokuba u-Aroni lamadodana akhe sebeqedile ukwembesa impahla zonke ezendawo engcwele lazozonke izinto ezingcwele, kanye lokuthi sebelungele ukusuka, amaKhohathi yiwo okumele eze azothwala. Kodwa akumelanga bathinte izinto ezingcwele ngoba bazakufa. AmaKhohathi azathwala lezozinto ezisethenteni lokuhlangana.
16 Hagi pristi ne' Aroni nemofo Eleasa kva hania'zana tavi'mofo masavene, mnanentake zama kremna vu'zane, maka zupa ofa nemiza witi ragane, asomu huzmante'za frenezmantaza masavene, seli nomofo eri'za zantamine, agu'afima maka'za me'neane, hunagru hunte'nea nomofo agu'afi me'nea zanena agrake maka kegava hugahie.
U-Eliyazari indodana ka-Aroni, umphristi, uzakhangela amafutha esibane, impepha, umnikelo ojayelekileyo wamabele lamafutha okugcoba abakhethiweyo. Uzagcina ithabanikeli ngonanzelelo layo yonke into ephakathi kwalo, kanye lempahla ezingcwele lezitsha zalo.”
17 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesene, Aronikizni anage huno zanasmi'ne,
UThixo watshela uMosi lo-Aroni wathi,
18 Livae naga nofipintira, Kohati ne'mofavre nagara zamatrenke'za fri hana osiho.
“Nanzelelani ukuthi izizwe zosendo lwamaKhohathi azehlukaniswa labaLevi.
19 Kohati naga'mo'za ruotge hu'nea zama kege vu kofta hu'za avako huge, hanuza fri hana huzanku Aroni'ene, ne'mofavre naga'amo'za mareri'za erise hutesage'za, eri'za kankamu zamire kofiza vugahaze.
Lokhu kuyikuthi baphile bengafi nxa bethe basondela phansi kwezinto ezingcwelengcwele, balungiseleni lokhu: U-Aroni lamadodana akhe bazakuya endaweni engcwele bayekwabela indoda yinye ngayinye umsebenzi wayo kanye lalokho okumele bakuthwale.
20 Hu'neanagi Kohati naga'mo'za osi'a knafinena agu'afina mareri'za ruotge'ma hu'nea zantamina onkegahaze. Hanki anazantamima kesuza frigahaze. Ama'i Gersoni naga'moza eri'naza erizamofo naneke.
Kodwa amaKhohathi akumelanga angene ukuthi ayebona izinto ezingcwele, loba okomzuzwana nje kuphela, ngoba bazakufa.”
21 Hagi Ra Anumzamo amanage huno Mosesena asami'ne.
UThixo wathi kuMosi,

Bala wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa labo abezayo ukuzosebenza ethenteni lokuHlangana.
24 Hagi Gersoni naga'moza, seli mono nomofo agu'afi eri'za eneriza, eri'za vano hanazana amana hugahaze,
Lo ngumsebenzi okumele wenziwe ngabosendo lwamaGeshoni ekusebenzeni kwabo lekuthwaleni kwabo imithwalo:
25 zamagra seli mono nomofo ra tavaravene, agofetu refite'nea tavaravene, hagerimpi bulimakao ukarinu agofetu refite'neane, seli mono nomofo kasante ra tvarave hanti'naza zama'a erigahaze,
Bazathwala amakhetheni ethabanikeli, ithente lokuhlangana, isembeso salo kanye lesangaphandle esezikhumba zezinyamazana, amakhetheni entuba yethente lokuhlangana,
26 megi'a refite kagi'naza tavaravene, mareri kahante'ene kresramna vu itare (alta) hanti'naza tavaravene, nofi tmine, ana miko eri'za zantamina Gersoni naga'mo'za erigahaze.
amakhetheni eguma elihonqolozele ithabanikeli le-alithari, ikhetheni lesango, izintambo lakho konke okusetshenziswa kulo umsebenzi. AmaGeshoni azakwenza konke okumele kwenziwe ngalezizinto.
27 Hagi Gersoni naga nofi'mo'za maka'a zupa, Aroni'ene ne'mofavre naga'amozama hanaza kemofo amage ante'za kofi'za vutere hugahaze.
Imisebenzi yabo yonke abayenzayo, kumbe yikuthwala kumbe ngumsebenzi othile, bazayenza ngokuqondisa kuka-Aroni lamadodana akhe. Uzabapha kube ngumlandu wabo ukuthwala lokho ozabe uthe bakuthwale.
28 Gersoni naga'mokizmi ne'mofavre'moza seli mono nomofo eri'zama eri'sazana, pristi ne' Aroni nemofo Itamari Merari nagara kegava hu'nena ana eri'zana erigahaze.
Lokhu kuzakuba ngumsebenzi wabosendo lwamaGeshoni ethenteni lokuhlangana. Umsebenzi wabo bazawenza ngokuqondisa kuka-Ithamari indodana ka-Aroni, umphristi.”
29 Livae nagapinti Merari ne'mofavre nagara, kagra zamagi krenka nagate, famote, eri fatgo huo.
“Bala amaMerari ngosendo langezindlu zawo.
30 Maka 30'a kafuma hu'nesia vahetetima marerino 50'a kafuma hu'nesaza vahe'ma, seli mono nompima eri'za eriga hu'nesaza venene'a hamprio.
Bala wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa abezayo ukusebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana.
31 Zamagra amanahu eri'za erigahaze, maka seli mono noma ahegagi'naza zafane, zaza zafane, re trure zafane, rusihu (soket) zafane eri'za vugahaze.
