8 UJehova waraga nokukhuluma noMosi wathi: 2 “Thatha u-Aroni namadodanakhe,+ izambatho,+ amafutha wokuzesa,+ ikunzi yomnikelo wesono, amaramu amabili nomantji woburotho obunganasibiliso+ 3 bewuhlanganise yoke ihlangano ndawonye ebungenweni betende lokuhlangana.”

4 Nje-ke uMosi wenza koke uJehova amyala ngakho, wabuthelela yoke ihlangano ebungenweni betende lokuhlangana. 5 UMosi wathi ehlanganweni: “Nakhu uJehova asiyale bona sikwenze.” 6 UMosi watjhideza u-Aroni namadodanakhe bewabahlambisa.+ 7 Ngemva kwalokho, wamembathisa iphuraphura+ wayibopha ngebhande elikghatjisiweko,+ wamembathisa ijasana enganamikhono, wamembathisa i-efodi+ ngaphezulu wayibopha ngebhande+ ledinini le-efodi.+ 8 Ngemva kwalokho, wamfaka isikhwanyana sesifubeni+ wafaka i-Urimi neThumimi*+ ngesikhwanyaneni esisesifubeni. 9 Nje-ke wamthwesa itjhila+ elithwalwa ehloko, wabeka isinjana emanyazelako yegolide ngaphambili etjhileni elithwalwa ehloko, itshwayo elitjengisa ukuthi u-Aroni uzinikele kuZimu+ njengombana uJehova ayala uMosi.

10 UMosi wathatha amafutha wokuzesa begodu wazesa ithaberinakeli nazo zoke izinto ebezikilo+ wazicwengisa. 11 Ngemva kwalokho, wafafaza amanye wawo kalikhomba e-aldareni begodu wazesa i-aldara, izitja zalo, isitja sokuhlambela nesisekelo saso ukwenzela bona azicwengise. 12 Emaswapheleni wathela amanye amafutha ehloko ka-Aroni begodu wamzesa ukwenzela bona acwengeke.+

13 UMosi watjhideza amadodana ka-Aroni eduze wawambathisa iimphuraphura wawabopha amabhande akghatjisiweko emadininawo begodu wawathwesa iingwani+ njengombana uJehova ayala uMosi.

14 Ngemva kwalokho, waletha ikunzi yomnikelo wesono begodu u-Aroni namadodanakhe babeka izandla zabo phezu kwehloko yekunzi yomnikelo wesono.+ 15 UMosi wayihlaba wafaka umunwakhe eengazini+ wazitjhatjha eempondweni ze-aldara emahlangothini woke, wacwengisa i-aldara esonweni, kwathi iingazi eziseleko wazithululela esisekelweni se-aldara, ukwenzela bona alicwengisele ukwenza umnikelo wokulitjalelwa kwezono. 16 UMosi wathatha woke amafutha asemathunjini, amafutha asesibindini, iziso ezimbili namafuthazo wawatjhisa e-aldareni.+ 17 Ngemva kwalokho, wathatha okuseleko kwekunzi okuhlanganisa isikhumba sayo, inyamayo nomswanayo wakutjhisela ngaphandle kwekampa+ njengombana uJehova bekamyalile.

18 Nje-ke watjhideza iramu lomnikelo otjhiswako begodu u-Aroni namadodanakhe babeka izandla zabo phezu kwehloko yeramu.+ 19 UMosi walihlaba, wafafaza iingazi zalo emahlangothini woke we-aldara. 20 Wahlahlela iramu, wathatha ihlokwalo, iintokana zenyama nomhlwehlwalo* wakutjhisa emlilweni. 21 Wahlanza amathumbalo neenqatha zalo ngamanzi, ngemva kwalokho uMosi watjhisa iramu loke e-aldareni umnikelo otjhiswako oliphunga elimnandi. Bekumnikelo otjhiswako owenziwe ngomlilo oya kuJehova, njengombana uJehova bekayale uMosi.

22 Ngemva kwalokho, waletha iramu lesibili, iramu lomnikelo wokubekwa kwabaphristi,+ u-Aroni namadodanakhe babeka izandla zabo phezu kwehloko yeramu.+ 23 UMosi walihlaba wathatha ezinye iingazi watjhatjha indlebe ka-Aroni yangesidleni, uthubhakghurwakhe wangesidleni nozwanakhe omkhulu wangesidleni. 24 Ngemva kwalokho, uMosi wathatha amadodana ka-Aroni wawaletha ngaphambili, wathatha ezinye iingazi wawatjhatjha eendlebeni zangesidleni, kibothubhakghuru babo bangesidleni nemazwaninawo amakhulu wangesidleni; kwathi iingazi eziseleko wazifafaza emahlangothini woke we-aldara.+

25 Nje-ke wathatha amafutha, amafutha asemsileni, woke umhlwehlwe osemathunjini, amafutha asesibindini, iziso ezimbili namafuthazo nomlenze wangesidleni.+ 26 Wathatha umantji onoburotho obunganasibiliso ebewuphambi kwakaJehova, wakhupha uburotho bunye obunganasibiliso oburondo obuvuleke phakathi,+ uburotho bunye oburondo obuvuleke phakathi obutjhatjhwe ngamafutha nesiphaphatha sinye.+ Wazibeka phezu kweentokana zamafutha naphezu komlenze wangesidleni. 27 Ngemva kwalokho, wazibeka ezandleni zaka-Aroni nezandleni zamadodanakhe wathoma ukuziphephezelisa wazisa emuva naphambili bona zibe mnikelo ophephezeliswako phambi kwakaJehova. 28 Nje-ke uMosi wazithatha ezandleni zabo wazitjhisa e-aldareni phezu komnikelo otjhiswako. Bezimhlatjelo wokubekwa kwabaphristi oliphunga elimnandi. Bekumnikelo owenziwa ngomlilo oya kuJehova.

29 UMosi wathatha isifuba wasisa emuva naphambili njengomnikelo ophephezeliswako oya kuJehova.+ Isifuba seramu yomhlatjelo wokubekwa kwabaphristi saba ngesakaMosi,+ njengombana uJehova bekamyalile.

30 UMosi wathatha amanye amafutha wokuzesa+ nezinye iingazi ebezise-aldareni wazifafaza ku-Aroni nezambathweni zakhe, wazifafaza emadodaneni ka-Aroni nezambathweni zawo. Wacwengisa u-Aroni nezambatho zakhe, wacwengisa amadodanakhe+ nezambatho zawo.+

31 Nje-ke uMosi wathi ku-Aroni nemadodanenakhe: “Bilisani+ inyama ebungenweni betende lokuhlangana begodu nizoyidlela khona noburotho obusemantjini ebewusetjenziswa nakwenziwa umhlatjelo wokubekwa kwabaphristi njengombana uZimu angiyala, ‘u-Aroni namadodanakhe bazoyidla.’+ 32 Inyama noburotho obuseleko kufuze nikutjhise ngomlilo.+ 33 Akukafuzi niphume ebungenweni betende lokuhlangana amalanga alikhomba bekube kulapho amalanga wokubekwa kwenu bona nibe baphristi sekaphelile, ngombana kuzokuthatha amalanga alikhomba bona nibekwe nibe baphristi.+ 34 UJehova usiyale bona senze koke esikwenze namhlanjesi ukwenzela bona sinenzele umnikelo wokulitjalelwa kwezono.+ 35 Kufuze nihlale ebungenweni betende lokuhlangana ubusuku nemini amalanga alikhomba+ begodu nenze koke uJehova+ aniyale ngakho, ukwenzela bona ningafi ngombana ngilokho engiyalwe ngakho.”

36 U-Aroni namadodanakhe benza koke uJehova abayala ngakho ngoMosi.
