2 Ubude balo bube yingalo, lobubanzi balo ingalo, lilingane inhlangothi zozine; lokuphakama kwalo kube zingalo ezimbili; impondo zalo zizavela kulo.
3 Njalo ulihuqe ngegolide elicwengekileyo, ingaphezulu yalo, lenhlangothi zalo ezilizingelezeleyo, lempondo zalo; wenze kulo umqolo wegolide olizingelezeleyo.
4 Wenze njalo amasongo amabili egolide, ngaphansi komqolo walo, enhlangothini ezimbili zalo; wenze enhlangothini zalo zombili; azakuba zindawo zemijabo ezokulithwala ngayo.
5 Njalo wenze imijabo ngesihlahla sesinga, uyihuqe ngegolide.
6 Uzalibeka phambi kweveyili elingasemtshokotshweni wobufakazi, phambi kwesihlalo somusa esiphezu kobufakazi, lapho engizahlangana khona lawe.
7 Njalo uAroni atshisele kulo impepha elephunga elimnandi ukusa ngokusa, eselungise izibane uzayitshisa;
8 lapho uAroni elumathisa izibane kusihlwa, ayitshise; yimpepha eqhubekayo phambi kweNkosi ezizukulwaneni zenu.
9 Linganikeleli kulo impepha engejwayelekanga kumbe umnikelo wokutshiswa kumbe umnikelo wokudla; njalo lingatheli kulo umnikelo wokunathwayo.
10 UAroni uzakwenza inhlawulo yokuthula empondweni zalo kanye ngomnyaka, ngegazi lomnikelo wesono wezinhlawulo zokuthula; kanye ngomnyaka uzakwenza inhlawulo yokuthula kulo ezizukulwaneni zenu; liyingcwelengcwele eNkosini.
11 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi yathi:
12 Lapho uthatha inani lonke labantwana bakoIsrayeli, njengokubalwa kwabo, bazanika ngulowo lalowo ihlawulo ngomphefumulo wakhe eNkosini, nxa ubabala; ukuze kungabi lenhlupheko phakathi kwabo, nxa ubabala.
13 Bazanika lokhu, wonke odlulela kwababaliweyo, ingxenye yeshekeli, njengokweshekeli lendlu engcwele - ishekeli lingamagera angamatshumi amabili - ingxenye yeshekeli ngumnikelo eNkosini.
14 Wonke odlulela kwababaliweyo, kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili langaphezulu, anikele umnikelo weNkosi.
15 Abanothileyo bangadlulisi, labayanga banganciphisi ingxenye yeshekeli, lapho linikela umnikelo weNkosi, ukwenzela imiphefumulo yenu inhlawulo yokuthula.
16 Uzathatha imali yenhlawulo zokuthula ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli, uyinikele inkonzo yethente lenhlangano, ukuthi ibe yisikhumbuzo sabantwana bakoIsrayeli phambi kweNkosi, ukwenzela imiphefumulo yenu inhlawulo yokuthula.
17 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi yathi:
18 Uzakwenza lenditshi yethusi yokugezela elonyawo lwayo lwethusi, ukugezela kuyo; uyibeke phakathi laphakathi kwethente lenhlangano lelathi, uthele kuyo amanzi,
19 njalo uAroni lamadodana akhe bagezele kuyo izandla zabo lenyawo zabo.
20 Nxa bengena ethenteni lenhlangano bazageza ngamanzi, ukuze bangafi, loba besondela elathini ukukhonza, ukutshisa umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
21 Ngakho bazageza izandla zabo lenyawo zabo ukuze bangafi; njalo kuzakuba kubo yisimiso esilaphakade, kuye lakunzalo yakhe ezizukulwaneni zabo.
22 INkosi yakhuluma futhi kuMozisi yathi:
23 Wena-ke, zithathele amakha aqakathekileyo, imure elizigelezelayo elingamashekeli angamakhulu amahlanu, lekinamoni elilephunga elimnandi ingxenye yalokho, elingamashekeli angamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu, lekalamu elilephunga elimnandi elingamashekeli angamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu,
24 lekhasiya elingamashekeli angamakhulu amahlanu ngokweshekeli lendlu engcwele, lamafutha omhlwathi alihini;
25 wenze lokhu kube ngamafutha angcwele okugcoba, amakha axutshanisiweyo njengokwenza komenzi wamakha; azakuba ngamafutha angcwele okugcoba.
26 Uzagcoba ngawo ithente lenhlangano lomtshokotsho wobufakazi,
27 letafula lezitsha zalo zonke, loluthi lwesibane lezitsha zalo, lelathi lempepha,
28 lelathi lomnikelo wokutshiswa lezitsha zalo zonke, lenditshi yokugezela lonyawo lwayo;
29 ukungcwelise ukuze kube yingcwelengcwele; loba yini okukuthintayo kuzakuba ngcwele.
30 Ugcobe laye uAroni lamadodana akhe, ubangcwelise ukuze bangisebenzele njengabapristi.
31 Ukhulume kubantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi: Lokhu kuzakuba kimi ngamafutha angcwele okugcoba ezizukulwaneni zenu;
32 angabothelwa emzimbeni womuntu; njalo lingawenzi anjengawo ngokwenziwa kwawo; angcwele, azakuba ngcwele kini.
33 Loba ngubani owenza anjengawo, loba ewafaka kowemzini, uzaqunywa asuke ebantwini bakibo.
34 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi: Zithathele amakha amnandi, isitakete leonika legalibanu, amakha amnandi lenhlaka ecengekileyo, kube yizabelo ezilinganayo;
35 wenze kube yimpepha, amakha axutshanisiweyo njengokwenza komenzi wamakha, itshwayiwe, icengekile, ingcwele;
36 uchole okwayo kucolisiseke, ubeke okwayo phambi kobufakazi ethenteni lenhlangano, lapho engizahlangana khona lawe; izakuba yingcwelengcwele kini.
37 Kodwa impepha ozayenza, lingazenzeli yona njengokwenziwa kwayo; izakuba ngcwele kuwe, yenzelwe iNkosi.
38 Loba ngubani ozakwenza enjengayo ukuyinuka, uzaqunywa asuke ebantwini bakibo.
