1 Wasengibuyisela ngendlela ^a yesango lendawo engcwele ^b engaphandle, elikhangele ngasempumalanga ^c, elalivalekile. 2 INkosi yasisithi kimi: Lelisango lizahlala livaliwe, kaliyikuvulwa, kakulamuntu ozangena ngalo; ngoba iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli ^d, ingene ngalo, ngakho lizakuba livalekile. 3 Libe ngelesiphathamandla; isiphathamandla ^e, sona sizahlala kilo, ukuthi sidle isinkwa phambi kweNkosi ^f. Ngendlela yekhulusi lesango sizangena, langendlela yalo sizaphuma ^g.

4 Wasengiletha ngendlela yesango lenyakatho ngaphambi kwendlu ^h. Ngasengibona, khangela-ke, inkazimulo yeNkosi yagcwalisa indlu yeNkosi ⁱ; ngasengisithi mbo ngobuso bami ^j. 5 INkosi yasisithi kimi: Ndodana yomuntu, beka inhliziyo yakho, ubone ngamehlo akho ^k, uzwe ngendlebe zakho ^l, konke engizakutshela khona mayelana lezimiso zonke zendlu yeNkosi ^m, lemilayo yayo yonke ⁿ; ubeke inhliziyo yakho kuyo indawo yokungena yendlu ^o, lazo zonke izindawo zokuphuma zendawo engcwele ^p. 6 Njalo uzakuthi kubo abavukelayo ^q, kiyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Sekwanele kini, ngenxa yazo zonke izinengiso zenu ^r, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli. 7 Ngoba lingenisile abezizwe ^s, abangasokanga ngenhliziyo ^t labangasokanga ngenyama, ukuthi babe sendaweni yami engcwele ^u, ukuyingcolisa, ngitsho indlu yami ^v, lapho linikela isinkwa sami ^w, amafutha ^x, legazi ^{y
,} ^z, futhi bephulile isivumelwano sami ngamanyala enu wonke. 8 Njalo kaligcinanga umlindo wezinto zami ezingcwele ^aa; kodwa lizimisele abagcini bomlindo wami endaweni yami engcwele.

9 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Kakulamuntu wezizwe ^ab, ongasokanga enhliziyweni ^ac, kumbe ongasokanga enyameni, ozangena endaweni yami engcwele, kuye wonke owezizwe ophakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli. 10 Kodwa amaLevi asuka aya khatshana lami ^ad, lapho uIsrayeli eduha, aduha esuka kimi ^ae elandela izithombe zawo, ngitsho azathwala isiphambeko sawo ^af. 11 Kube kanti azakuba yizikhonzi ^ag endaweni yami engcwele ^ah, belobubonisi bamasango endlu, njalo ekhonza endlini ^ai; wona azahlaba umnikelo wokutshiswa lomhlatshelo owenzelwa abantu, wona ame phambi kwabo ukuze abakhonze ^aj. 12 Ngenxa yokuthi bebakhonze phambi kwezithombe zabo, baba yisikhubekiso sesiphambeko kuyo indlu yakoIsrayeli, ngalokho ngiphakamise isandla sami ngimelene labo ^ak, itsho iNkosi uJehova, ukuthi bazathwala isiphambeko sabo ^al. 13 Njalo kabayikusondela kimi ^am, ukuze bangisebenzele njengabapristi, loba basondele lakuziphi izinto zami ezingcwele, endaweni eyingcwelengcwele ^an; kodwa bazathwala ihlazo labo ^ao, lamanyala abo abawenzileyo. 14 Kodwa ngizabenza abagcini bomlindo wendlu ^{ap
,} ^aq, kuwo wonke umsebenzi wayo ^ar, lakukho konke okuzakwenziwa kiyo ^as.

15 Kodwa abapristi abangamaLevi ^at, amadodana kaZadoki ^{au
,} ^av, abagcina umlindo wendawo yami engcwele ^aw lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli beduha besuka kimi ^ax, bona bazasondela kimi ukungikhonza ^ay, beme phambi kwami ^az ukunikela kimi amahwahwa legazi ^ba, itsho iNkosi uJehova. 16 Bona bazangena endaweni yami engcwele, bona basondele etafuleni lami ^bb ukungikhonza, bagcine umlindo wami ^bc.

17 Kuzakuthi-ke lapho bengena emasangweni eguma elingaphakathi ^{bd
,} ^be, bagqoke izembatho zelembu elicolekileyo ^bf, kodwa uboya bezimvu kabuyikuza phezu kwabo, besakhonza emasangweni eguma elingaphakathi, langaphakathi. 18 Kuzakuba lamaqhiye ^bg elembu elicolekileyo emakhanda abo ^bh, labokabhudula bangaphansi ^bi belembu elicolekileyo ^bj babe enkalweni zabo, bangabhinci ngokuginqisayo. 19 Lalapho bephumela egumeni elingaphandle, ngitsho egumeni elingaphandle besiya ebantwini ^bk, bazakhulula izembatho zabo abakhonza ngazo ^{bl
,} ^bm, bazibeke emakamelweni angcwele ^bn, bagqoke ezinye izigqoko ^bo, njalo kabayikungcwelisa abantu ngezembatho zabo ^bp. 20 Futhi kabayikuphuca amakhanda abo ^bq, kabayikuvumela izihluthu zenwele zikhule zibe zinde ^br; bazagela lokugela amakhanda abo. 21 Futhi kabayikunatha iwayini ^bs, ngulowo lalowompristi, ekungeneni kwabo egumeni elingaphakathi ^bt. 22 Njalo kabayikuzithathela umfelokazi ^bu kumbe olahliweyo ^bv babe ngabafazi, kodwa bazathatha izintombi ezimsulwa zenzalo yendlu yakoIsrayeli, loba umfelokazi ongumfelokazi wompristi. 23 Njalo bazafundisa abantu bami ^bw umehluko phakathi kokungcwele lokungangcwele ^bx, babazise umehluko ^by phakathi kokungcolileyo lokuhlambulukileyo ^bz. 24 Lekuphikisaneni bona bazakuma ekwahluleleni ^ca, bahlulele ngokwezahlulelo zami. Bagcine imilayo yami lezimiso zami kiyo yonke imikhosi yami emisiweyo, bangcwelise amasabatha ami ^cb. 25 Njalo kabayikuza emuntwini ofileyo ^cc ukuzingcolisa ^cd; kodwa ngoyise, kumbe ngonina, kumbe ngendodana, kumbe ngendodakazi, ngomfowabo, kumbe ngodadewabo ongeyisuye wendoda, bangazingcolisa ^ce. 26 Langemva kokuhlanjululwa kwakhe bazambalela insuku eziyisikhombisa ^cf. 27 Langosuku azangena ngalo endaweni engcwele, egumeni elingaphakathi ^cg, ukuyakhonza endaweni engcwele, uzanikela umnikelo wakhe wesono ^ch, itsho iNkosi uJehova. 28 Lokhu kuzakuba yilifa kubo ^ci; ngiyilifa labo ^cj; njalo kaliyikubanika imfuyo koIsrayeli ^ck; mina ngiyinzuzo yabo. 29 Bona bazakudla umnikelo wokudla ^cl, lomnikelo wesono ^cm, lomnikelo wecala ^cn, lakho konke okwehlukanisiweyo koIsrayeli kuzakuba ngokwabo ^co. 30 Lokuqala kwazo zonke izithelo zokuqala zakho konke, lawo wonke umnikelo wakho konke ^cp, kuyo yonke iminikelo yenu ^{cq
,} ^cr, kuzakuba ngokwabapristi; lokuqala kwenhlama yenu ^cs likunike umpristi, ukuhlalisa ^ct isibusiso phezu kwendlu yakho ^cu. 31 Abapristi kabayikudla loba kuyini okuzifeleyo ^cv, loba okudatshuliweyo, okwenyoni kumbe okwenyamazana.
