1 Ngasemagcekeni aseMowabi kusekele umfula uJodani nganeno malungana leJerikho, uThixo wathi kuMosi,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he fonua tafangafanga ʻo Moape ʻoku ofi ki Sioatani [pea ofi ki ]Seliko, ʻo pehē,
2 “Laya abako-Israyeli ukuthi bakhethe elifeni labo amadolobho bawanike abaLevi ukuze bahlale kuwo. Njalo babanike lamadlelo eduze lamadolobho lawo.
“Fekau ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke nau foaki ʻae ngaahi kolo ki he kau Livai ke nau nofo ai, mei he ngaahi tofiʻa ʻoku nau maʻu; pea mou foaki foki ki he kau Livai ʻae ngaahi potu fonua ke takatakai ʻae ngaahi kolo.
3 Ngalokho bazakuba lamadolobho okuhlala kanye lamadlelo enkomo zabo, imihlambi yezimvu kanye leyezinye izifuyo zabo zonke.
Pea te nau maʻu ʻae ngaahi kolo ke nau nofo ai; pea mo e ngaahi potu fonua ʻoku takatakai ai, ki heʻenau fanga manu, mo ʻenau koloa, mo ʻenau fanga manu kotoa pē.
4 Amadlelo azingelezele amadolobho elizawanika abaLevi, azakuba zingalo eziyinkulungwane ukuqhela kwawo kusukela emidulini yamadolobho.
Pea ko e ngaahi potu fonua ʻoe ngaahi kolo, ʻaia te mou foaki ki he kau Livai, ʻe aʻu atu ia mei he ʻā maka ʻoe kolo ʻi he hanga ʻe ua afe ʻo takatakai ia.
5 Ngempumalanga, ngaphandle kwedolobho, kuzakuba zingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili kube njalo laseningizimu izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, entshonalanga izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, kufane laseceleni lenyakatho izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, idolobho liphakathi laphakathi. Le kuzakuba yindawo yabo yamadlelo emadolobheni.”
Pea te mou fuofua mei he tuʻa kolo ki he potu hahake ko e hanga ʻe fā afe, pea mo e potu tonga ʻae hanga ʻe fā afe, pea mo e potu hihifo ʻae hanga ʻe fā afe, pea mo e potu tokelau ʻae hanga ʻe fā afe; ka ʻe tuʻu loto ʻae kolo: pea ʻe tuku ia kiate kinautolu ko e ngaahi potu fonua ʻoe kolo.
6 “Phakathi kwamadolobho elizawanika abaLevi, ayisithupha azakuba ngawokuphephela, yikho lapho okuzakuthi umuntu angabulala omunye abalekele khona. Phezu kwalawo, bapheni amanye amadolobho angamatshumi amane lamabili.
Pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo te mou foaki ki he kau Livai, ʻe ʻi ai ʻae kolo hūfanga ʻe ono, ʻaia te mou tuʻutuʻuni ki he tangata kuo faainoa ha tāmate, koeʻuhi ke hola ia ki ai: pea te mou lau foki mo ia ʻae kolo ʻe fāngofulu ma ua.
7 Wonke esehlangene abaLevi bapheni amadolobho angamatshumi amane lasificaminwembili, kuhlanganisa lamadlelo abo.
Pea ko e ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻaia te mou foaki ki he kau Livai ko e kolo ʻe fāngofulu ma valu: te mou foaki ia mo hono ngaahi potu fonua.
8 Amadolobho eliwanika abaLevi elizweni labako-Israyeli kawabiwe ngokuya ngelifa lesizwana ngasinye: Thathani amadolobho amanengi esizwaneni esilamadolobho amanengi, kodwa lithathe amalutshwana kwesilamalutshwana.”
Pea te mou foaki ʻae ngaahi kolo mei he tofiʻa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ko kinautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻo lahi ke mou foaki lahi mei ai; ka ko kinautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻo siʻi ke mou foaki siʻi mei ai: ʻe taki taha foaki mei hono ngaahi kolo ki he kau Livai ʻo fakatatau mo e tofiʻa kuo ne maʻu.”
9 Ngakho uThixo wasesithi kuMosi:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
10 “Khuluma labako-Israyeli njalo ubatshele uthi: ‘Ekuchapheni kwenu uJodani lingena eKhenani,
Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOka mou ka aʻa ʻi Sioatani ki he fonua ko Kēnani;
11 khethani amanye amadolobho abe ngawokuphephela, lapho okuzakuthi nxa umuntu ebulele omunye ngengozi abalekele khona.
Te mou toki fakatapui ʻae ngaahi kolo, ko e ngaahi kolo hūfanga moʻomoutolu; koeʻuhi ke hola ki ai ʻae tangata kuo fai ha tāmate, ʻaia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tokotaha ʻi heʻene palalīvale.
12 Azakuba zindawo zokuphephela ukuzivikela kwabaphindiselayo, ukuze kuthi lowo owetheswa icala lokubulala angafi engakathonisiswa phambi kwebandla.
Pea ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e ngaahi kolo hūfanga mei he tangata totongi; ke ʻoua naʻa mate ʻae tangata ʻoku faainoa ha tāmate, kaeʻoua ke tuʻu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ʻi he fakamaau.
13 Amadolobho ayisithupha la elibapha wona azakuba ngamadolobho enu okuphephela.
Pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻaia te mou foaki ʻe vahe mei ai ʻae kolo ʻe ono ke hūfanga ʻaki
14 Bapheni amathathu ngakulelicele lomfula uJodani kuthi amathathu abe ngamadolobho okuphephela eKhenani.
Te mou foaki ʻae kolo ʻe tolu ʻi he kauvai mai ki heni ʻo Sioatani, pea mo e kolo ʻe tolu ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, ko e ngaahi kolo hūfanga.
15 Amadolobho la ayisithupha azakuba yindawo yokuphephela kwabako-Israyeli, labezizweni kanye labo bonke abantu abahlezi phakathi kwabo, ukuze kuthi loba ngubani obulele omunye ngengozi abalekele khona.
Ko e ngaahi kolo ʻe ono ni ʻe hūfanga ʻaki ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo e muli mo e ʻāunofo ʻiate kinautolu: koeʻuhi ke hola kotoa pē ki ai ʻaia kuo tāmate ha tokotaha ʻi heʻene faainoa.
16 Nxa indoda itshaya umuntu ngento eyinsimbi afe, ingumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
Pea kapau ʻe taaʻi ia ʻaki ha meʻa ukamea ke mate ai ia, ko e tangata fakapō ia: ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fakapō.
17 Kumbe nxa omunye ephethe ilitshe abesetshaya omunye afe, ungumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
Pea kapau ʻe taaʻi ia ʻi heʻene lisingi ha maka, ke mate ai ia, pea mate ia, ko e tangata fakapō ia: ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fakapō.
18 Njalo nxa omunye ephethe ulutho oluyisigodo abesetshaya omunye afe, ungumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
Pea kapau te ne taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ʻakau, ke mate ai ia, pea mate ia, ko e tangata fakapō ia: ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fakapō.
19 Umphindiseli wegazi kumele ambulale umbulali; nxa ehlangana laye, kumele ambulale.
Ko e [tangata ʻoku fai ʻae ]totongi toto ʻe taaʻi ʻe ia ʻae fakapō: ʻi heʻena fetaulaki mo ia, te ne taaʻi ia.
20 Loba ngubani olomona ohlezi eqophile engafuqa omunye loba amjikijele ngolutho oluthile ngabomo kubangele ukufa kwakhe
Pea kapau ʻe hokaʻi ia ʻi he ʻita, pe lisi kiate ia ʻi heʻene toitoi, ke mate ai ia;
21 loba kuthi ngolaka amtshaye ngenqindi afe, lowomuntu kumele abulawe; ungumbulali. Umphindiseli wegazi kumele abulale umbulali nxa ehlangana laye.
Pe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻa hono nima ʻi heʻene taufehiʻa, ke mate ai ia: ko e moʻoni ko ia naʻa ne taaʻi ia ʻe tāmateʻi ia; he ko e fakapō ia: pea ʻe taaʻi ʻae fakapō ʻe he [tangata ʻoku fai ʻae ]totongi toto, ʻi heʻena fetaulaki mo ia.
22 Kodwa nxa kungayisikho ngolaka, umuntu aqabuke esefuqe omunye loba amjikijele ngolutho engaqondile
Pea kapau ʻe hokaʻi fakafokifā ia ka ʻoku ʻikai taufehiʻa, pe lisi ha meʻa ʻe taha kiate ia ka ʻoku ʻikai toitoi,
23 loba engamboni, amgxobe ngelitshe elingambulala, afe, ngakho njengoba engasisositha sakhe njalo engaqondanga ukumlimaza,
Pe ha maka, ke mate ai ia, ka ʻoku ʻikai mamata kiate ia, kae lisi ia kiate ia pea ne mate ai ia, ka naʻe ʻikai ko hono fili, pea naʻe ʻikai kumi ia ke fai ha meʻa kovi kiate ia:
24 ibandla kumele lahlulele phakathi kwakhe lomphindiseli wegazi kulandelwa lezi zimiso.
Pea ʻe toki fakamaau ʻe he kakai ki he tangata fakapō mo e [tangata ʻoku fai ʻae ]totongi toto ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi fono ni:
25 Ibandla kumele livikele owetheswa icala lokubulala kumphindiseli wegazi njalo abuyiselwe edolobheni lokuphephela azabe ebalekele kulo. Kumele ahlale khonale kuze kufe umphristi omkhulu, owagcotshwa ngamafutha angcwele.
Pea ʻe fakamoʻui ʻe he kakai ʻaia kuo faainoa ʻae tāmate mei he nima ʻoe tangata ʻoku fai ʻae totongi toto, pea tenau toe ʻave ia ki hono kolo hūfanga, ʻaia naʻe hola ki ai: pea ʻe nofo ai ia ʻo aʻu ki he pekia ʻae fungani taulaʻeiki, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻaki ʻoe lolo tapu.
26 Kodwa lowo owetheswa icala angaba ngaphandle kwedolobho lokuphephela lelo ayabe ebalekele kulo
Pea kapau ʻe haʻu ʻae tangata kuo faainoa ha tāmate kituaʻā ʻi he veʻe kolo ʻo hono hūfanga, ʻaia naʻe hola ia ki ai;
27 kuthi umphindiseli wegazi amfumane ngaphandle kwalelodolobho, umphindiseli wegazi angambulala lowo owetheswe icala kodwa angabi lacala lokubulala.
Pea ka ʻilo ia ʻe he tangata ʻoku fai ʻae totongi toto, ʻi heʻene ʻi tuaʻā ʻi he veʻe kolo ʻo hono hūfanga, pea kapau ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae tāmate faainoa ʻe he totongi toto; ʻe ʻikai halaia ia ʻi hono toto:
28 Owetheswe icala kumele ahlale edolobheni lakhe lokuphephela kuze kufe umphristi omkhulu; uzaze abuyele emzini wakhe kuphela nxa umphristi omkhulu esefile.
He naʻe totonu ʻa ʻene nofo ia ʻi he kolo ʻo hono hūfanga ʻo aʻu ki he pekia ʻae fungani taulaʻeiki: pea ka hili ʻae pekia ʻae fungani taulaʻeiki ʻe foki ʻae tangata naʻe faainoa ha tāmate ki he fonua ʻo hono tofiʻa.
29 Le kumele kube yimithetho yesimiso kini lakuzizukulwane ezizayo, loba kungaphi lapho elizahlala khona.
Pea ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ko e fono ʻoe fakamaau kiate kimoutolu ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata mo homou ngaahi tofiʻa kotoa pē.
30 Loba ngubani obulala umuntu kumele abulawe njengombulali ngobufakazi balabo abayabe bebonile kuphela. Kodwa akungabikho loyedwa ozabulawa ngobufakazi bofakazi oyedwa.
Ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tokotaha, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fakapō ko ia ʻi he fakamoʻoni ʻoe kau fakamoʻoni: ka ʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ha tokotaha ʻi he fakaʻilo ʻe he fakamoʻoni ʻo ha tokotaha pe.
31 Lingemukeli inhlawulo yokuhlenga impilo yombulali, yena kumele afe, loba kutheni kabulawe.
Pea ʻe ʻikai foki te mou maʻu ha totongi kae moʻui ʻae fakapō, ʻaia ʻoku halaia ʻi heʻene tāmate: ka ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
32 Lingemukeli inhlawulo yokuhlenga loba ngubani obalekele edolobheni lokuphephela libe selimvumela ukuba abuyele ukuyahlala emzini wakhe umphristi omkhulu engakafi.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te mou maʻu ʻae totongi koeʻuhi ko ia kuo hola ki he kolo ko hono hūfanga, ke toe ʻomi ia ke nofo ʻi he fonua, kaeʻoua ke pekia ʻae taulaʻeiki.
33 Lingalingcolisi ilizwe lelo elihlala kulo. Ukuchitha igazi kungcolisa ilizwe, njalo indlela yokubuyisana ingeke yenzelwe lapho okuchithwe khona igazi, ngaphandle kwegazi lalowo olichithileyo.
Pea ko ia, ʻe ʻikai te mou fakaʻuli ʻae fonua ʻoku mou ʻi ai: he ʻoku fakaʻuli ʻe he toto ʻae fonua: pea ʻe ʻikai fakamaʻa ʻae fonua ʻi he toto kuo lilingi ʻi ai, ka ʻi he toto ʻo ia naʻa ne lilingi ia.
34 Lingalingcolisi ilizwe elihlezi kilo kanye lalapho engihlala khona, ngoba Mina, Thixo, ngihlala phakathi kwabako-Israyeli.’”
Ko ia ʻoua naʻa mou fakaʻuli ʻae fonua ʻaia te mou nofo ai, he ʻoku ou nofo ai: he ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou nofo mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
