Laawiyiintii 12

1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

UThixo wathi kuMosi:

2 Reer binu Israa'iil la hadal oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Haddii naagu ilmo uuraysato oo ay wiil dhasho, markaas intii toddoba maalmood ah waa inay nijaas ahaataa, oo waxay u nijaasoobaysaa siday nijaasta u ahayd maalmihii dhiiggeeda.

“Tshela abako-Israyeli ukuthi: ‘Umfazi ozithweleyo obelethe indodana uzakuba ngongcolileyo ngokomkhuba okwensuku eziyisikhombisa njengoba engcolile ngesikhathi esemfuleni.

3 Oo maalinta siddeedaadna wiilka buuryadiisa ha la gudo.

Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili indodana le kuzamele isokwe.

4 Oo iyadu waa inay ku sii jirtaa dhiigga isdaahirinteeda saddex iyo soddon maalmood oo kale, oo waa inayan taaban wax quduus ah, waana inayan meesha quduuska ah gelin ilamaa maalmaha isdaahirinteedu ay dhammaystirmaan.

Owesifazane kufanele ame okwensuku ezingamatshumi amathathu lantathu ukuze ahlanjululwe ukopha kwakhe. Ngalesisikhathi, akumelanga abambe ulutho olungcwele njalo akumelanga aye endlini engcwele kuze kwedlule insuku zakhe zokuhlanjululwa.

5 Laakiinse hadday gabadh dhasho, markaas intii laba toddobaad ah waa inay nijaas ahaataa sidii markay xagga dhiigga nijaas ka tahay, oo waa inay ku sii jirtaa dhiigga isdaahirinteeda lix iyo lixdan maalmood oo kale.

Nxa angabeletha indodakazi, owesifazane uzaba ngongcolileyo okwamaviki amabili, njenganxa esemfuleni. Kufanele ahlale okwensuku ezingamatshumi ayisithupha lezinsuku eziyisithupha ukuze ahlanjululwe ukopha kwakhe.

6 Oo markii maalmaha isdaahirinteedu ay dhammaystirmaan wiilkeeda aawadiis ama gabadheeda aawadeed waa inay keentaa wan gu jira oo qurbaan la gubo aawadiis loo bixiyo, iyo xamaam yar ama qoolley oo qurbaan dembi aawadiis loo bixiyo oo waa inay wadaadka ugu keentaa teendhada shirka iriddeeda.

Nxa insuku zokuhlanjululwa ngokwendodana loba indodakazi seziphelile, kumele owesifazane alethe izinyane lemvu elilomnyaka owodwa kumphristi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana ukuze libe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa kanye lephuphu lenkwilimba loba ijuba kube ngumnikelo wesono.

7 Oo isna qurbaankaas waa inuu ku bixiyaa Rabbiga hortiisa, oo waa inuu iyada kafaaraggud u sameeyaa, oo iyana dhiigbixiddeeda way ka daahirsanaan doontaa. Kanu waa sharciga ku saabsan tii dhasha ama wiil ha ahaado ama gabadhe.

Umphristi nguye ozanikela umnikelo phambi kukaThixo ukumenzela ukubuyisana, ngalokho uzabe esehlambulukile ngokomkhuba ekopheni kwakhe. Le yiyo imithetho elandelwa ngowesifazane ekubeletheni umfana loba inkazana.

8 Oo haddii lacagteedu ayan wan ugu filnaynna waa inay keentaa laba qoolley ama laba xamaam oo yaryar, oo midkood waa in loo bixiyaa qurbaan la gubo aawadiis, kan kalena waa in loo bixiyaa qurbaan dembi aawadiis, oo wadaadkuna waa inuu iyada kafaaraggud u sameeyaa, oo iyana daahir bay ahaan doontaa.

Nxa engenelisi ukunikela ngezinyane lemvu, kumele alethe amajuba amabili loba inkwilimba ezisesencane ezimbili, okunye kungumnikelo wokutshiswa okunye kungumnikelo wesono. Ngalindlela umphristi uzamenzela ukubuyisana, owesifazane uzahlambuluka.’”
