1 Yasisithi kuMozisi: Yenyukela eNkosini, wena loAroni, uNadabi loAbihu, labangamatshumi ayisikhombisa kubadala bakoIsrayeli, likhonze likhatshana.
2 Njalo uMozisi yedwa uzasondela eNkosini, kodwa bona kabayikusondela; labantu kabayikwenyuka laye.
3 UMozisi wasesiza wabatshela abantu wonke amazwi eNkosi lokwahlulela konke; bonke abantu baphendula ngalizwi linye bathi: Wonke amazwi eNkosi ewakhulumileyo sizawenza.
4 UMozisi wasebhala wonke amazwi eNkosi. Wavuka ekuseni kakhulu, wakha ilathi phansi kwentaba, lensika ezilitshumi lambili, ngokwezizwe ezilitshumi lambili zakoIsrayeli.
5 Wathuma amajaha abantwana bakoIsrayeli, anikela iminikelo yokutshiswa, ahlabela iNkosi iminikelo yokuthula yamajongosi.
6 UMozisi wasethatha ingxenye yegazi, wayifaka emiganwini; lengxenye yegazi wayifafaza phezu kwelathi.
7 Wasethatha incwadi yesivumelwano, wayibala ezindlebeni zabantu. Basebesithi: Konke iNkosi ekutshiloyo sizakwenza silalele.
8 UMozisi wasethatha igazi, walifafaza phezu kwabantu, wathi: Khangelani igazi lesivumelwano iNkosi esenze lani mayelana lawo wonke la amazwi.
9 Basebesenyuka oMozisi loAroni, uNadabi loAbihu, labangamatshumi ayisikhombisa kubadala bakoIsrayeli,
10 basebebona uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli, langaphansi kwenyawo zakhe kwakukhona okunjengomsebenzi wamasafire agandelweyo, lanjengamazulu uqobo ngokucwengeka.
11 Kodwa kaselulanga isandla sakhe kuzo iziphathamandla zabantwana bakoIsrayeli. Sebembonile-ke uNkulunkulu badla banatha.
12 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Yenyukela kimi entabeni, ube khona; njalo ngizakunika izibhebhe zamatshe lomlayo lemithetho, engikubhalileyo ukubafundisa.
13 Wasukuma-ke uMozisi, lenceku yakhe uJoshuwa; uMozisi wasesenyukela entabeni kaNkulunkulu.
14 Wasesithi ebadaleni: Silindeleni lapha size sibuye kini; khangelani-ke uAroni loHuri balani; olezindaba kasondele kubo.
15 UMozisi wasesenyukela entabeni, leyezi lasibekela intaba.
16 Njalo inkazimulo yeNkosi yahlala entabeni yeSinayi; leyezi layisibekela insuku eziyisithupha; yasimbiza uMozisi ngosuku lwesikhombisa iphakathi kweyezi.
17 Njalo ukubonakala kwenkazimulo yeNkosi kwakunjengomlilo oqothulayo, engqongeni yentaba, emehlweni abantwana bakoIsrayeli.
18 UMozisi wasengena phakathi kweyezi, wenyukela entabeni; njalo uMozisi waba sentabeni insuku ezingamatshumi amane lobusuku obungamatshumi amane.
