Eksodus

29 “Nantsi indlela omele ubangcwalise ngayo ukuze babe ngababingeleli bam: Thatha ithole lenkomo eliyinkunzi, iinkunzi zeegusha eziphilileyo ezimbini,+ 2 izonka ezingenagwele, izonka ezingenagwele ezirawundi ezixutywe namafutha, nezonka ezisicaba ezingenagwele eziqatywe amafutha.+ Uze uzenze ngomgubo ocoliweyo wengqolowa, 3 uzifake ebhaskithini uze nazo zisebhaskithini,+ uze nayo nenkunzi yenkomo, neenkunzi zegusha ezimbini.

4 “UAron noonyana bakhe umele ubazise kumnyango wentente yokuhlangana,+ uze ubahlambe ngamanzi.+ 5 Emva koko umele unxibise uAron umwunduzo,+ isambatho esingenamikhono se-efodi, iefodi nesingxobo,* umbophe ntshi esinqeni ngebhanti le-efodi eliphothiweyo.+ 6 Uze umthwalise iqhiya yamadoda, ubeke ipleyiti engcwele yegolide ebonisa ukuzinikela kwakhe* ngaphambili kuloo qhiya,+ 7 uthathe ioli yokuthambisa,+ uyigalele entlokweni yakhe, umthambise.+

8 “Emva koko uze usondeze oonyana bakhe, ubanxibise imiwunduzo.+ 9 Uze ubabhinqise imibhinqo uAron noonyana bakhe, ubathwalise izinto zokuthwala, yaye baza kuhlala bengababingeleli abasemthethweni ngonaphakade.+ Yiyo leyo indlela omele ubamisele ngayo uAron noonyana bakhe ukuze babe ngababingeleli.*+

10 “Ngoku umele usondeze inkunzi yenkomo phambi kwentente yokuhlangana, aze uAron noonyana bakhe babeke izandla zabo entlokweni yaloo nkunzi yenkomo.+ 11 Umele uyixhele loo nkunzi yenkomo phambi koYehova, emnyangweni wentente yokuhlangana.+ 12 Elinye igazi lale nkunzi yenkomo umele uliqabe ngomnwe kwiimpondo zesibingelelo,+ lize elishiyekileyo uligalele emazantsi esibingelelo.+ 13 Emva koko umele uthathe onke la manqatha+ ogqume amathumbu, umhlehlo ophezu kwesibindi, izintso zombini namanqatha aphezu kwazo, uzitshise ukuze ziqhume phezu kwesibingelelo.+ 14 Kodwa yona inyama yale nkunzi yenkomo, isikhumba sayo nobulongwe bayo umele uzitshise ngaphandle kwenkampu. Loo nkomo ngumnikelo wesono.

15 “Emva koko uze uthathe inkunzi yegusha ibe nye, uAron noonyana bakhe babeke izandla zabo entlokweni yayo.+ 16 Umele uyixhele loo nkunzi yegusha, uthathe igazi layo ulifefe kuwo onke amacala esibingelelo.+ 17 Yinqunqe, uhlambe amathumbu ayo namanqina ayo,+ uze uziqokelele ndawonye ezo ndawo zayo uzinqunqileyo kunye nentloko. 18 Uze uyitshise yonke loo gusha, iqhume phezu kwesibingelelo. Lowo ngumnikelo otshiswayo owenzelwa uYehova, olivumba elimnandi.*+ Ngumnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo usenzelwa uYehova.

19 “Wakugqiba, thatha inkunzi yegusha yesibini, uAron noonyana bakhe babeke izandla phezu kwentloko yayo.+ 20 Umele uyixhele loo nkunzi yegusha, uze uthathe elinye igazi layo uliqabe kwindlebe yasekunene ka-Aron nakwiindlebe zasekunene zoonyana bakhe, uliqabe kubhontsi wezandla zabo zasekunene nakubhontsi weenyawo zabo zasekunene, emva koko ulifefe macala onke esibingelelo. 21 Thatha elinye lelo gazi eliphezu kwesibingelelo neoli yokuthambisa,+ utshize uAron nezambatho zakhe, oonyana bakhe nezambatho zabo, ukuze izambatho zakhe nezoonyana bakhe zibe ngcwele.+

22 “Emva koko umele uthathe amanqatha aloo gusha, umsila wayo otyebileyo, amanqatha ogqume amathumbu, umhlehlo ophezu kwesibindi, izintso zombini namanqatha aphezu kwazo,+ nomlenze wasekunene, kuba leyo yinkunzi yegusha yokumisela.+ 23 Umele uthathe kwibhaskithi yezonka ezingenagwele ephambi koYehova, isonka esirawundi, isonka esinamafutha esimile okweringi, nesonka esisicaba. 24 Umele uzibeke zonke ezandleni zika-Aron nasezandleni zoonyana bakhe, uze uzitshangatshangise zibe ngumnikelo otshangatshangiswayo phambi koYehova. 25 Emva koko zithathe ezandleni zabo, uzitshise esibingelelweni, phezu kwala mnikelo utshiswayo, zibe livumba elimnandi* kuYehova. Ngumnikelo owenziwa ngomlilo lowo, usenzelwa uYehova.

26 “Uze uthathe inyama yesifuba* yenkunzi yegusha enikelwe ukuze kumiselwe+ uAron, uyitshangatshangise ibe ngumnikelo otshangatshangiswayo phambi koYehova, yaye iza kuba sisabelo sakho eso. 27 Umele uyingcwalise inyama yesifuba engumnikelo otshangatshangiswayo nomlenze wesabelo esingcwele obutshangatshangisiwe, zinto ezo ezithathwe kwinkunzi yegusha enikelwe ukuze kumiselwe+ uAron noonyana bakhe. 28 Mayibe yeka-Aron noonyana bakhe. Lowo ngumthetho omele uthotyelwe ngamaSirayeli ngonaphakade, kuba le nyama isisabelo esingcwele ibe iza kuba sisabelo esingcwele esikhutshwa ngamaSirayeli.+ Yinyama engcwele ayinika uYehova xa enikela imibingelelo yawo yobuhlobo.+

29 “Iimpahla ezingcwele+ zi­ka-Aron ziza kuba zezoonyana bakhe+ abaza kulandela emva kwakhe, xa beye bathanjiswa baza bamiselwa baba ngababingeleli. 30 Umbingeleli ophuma koonyana bakhe oza kungena ezihlangwini zakhe aze angene ententeni yokuhlangana ukuze asebenze endaweni engcwele, umele azinxibe iintsuku ezisixhenxe.+

31 “Umele uthathe inyama yale nkunzi yegusha yokumisela, uyibilise endaweni engcwele.+ 32 UAron noonyana bakhe baza kuyitya+ loo nyama kunye nesonka esikwibhaskithi ekumnyango wentente yokuhlangana. 33 Bamele bazitye izinto ekuhlawulwe ngazo ukuze benziwe ababingeleli* nokuze bangcwaliswe. Kodwa umntu ongalinikwanga ilungelo lokuzitya* akafanelanga azitye, kuba zingcwele.+ 34 Ukuba kukhe kwashiyeka inyama yombingelelo wokumisela nesonka kwada kwasekuseni, umele uyitshise ngomlilo loo nto ishiyekileyo.+ Mayingatyiwa, kuba ingcwele.

35 “Yenza ngaloo ndlela kuAron nakoonyana bakhe, wenze yonke into endikuyalele yona. Umele uthathe iintsuku ezisixhenxe xa ubamisela.+ 36 Umele unikele ngenkunzi yenkomo engumnikelo wesono ukuze uhlawule, usicoce isibingelelo esonweni ngokusihlawulela, yaye umele usithambise ukuze usingcwalise.+ 37 Uza kusihlawulela isibingelelo iintsuku ezisixhenxe, yaye umele usingcwalise ukuze sibe sesona sibingelelo singcwele.+ Nabani na osebenza esibingelelweni umele abe ngcwele.

38 “Nazi izinto omele wenze ngazo umnikelo esibingelelweni: yonke imihla, ngalo lonke ixesha umele unikele ngamatakane egusha amabini anonyaka ezelwe.+ 39 Elinye itakane legusha eliyinkunzi umele unikele ngalo kusasa, uze elinye unikele ngalo ngokuhlwa.*+ 40 Itakane lokuqala limele linikelwe nomlinganiselo weshumi we-efa* yomgubo ocoliweyo oxutywe nekota yehin* yeoli engqushiweyo, kunye nomnikelo oselwayo oyikota yehin yewayini. 41 Lona elesibini umele ulinikele ngokuhlwa,* kunye neminikelo yokutya neminikelo eselwayo efanayo naleyo yakusasa. Uza kuyinikela ibe livumba elimnandi,* nomnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo usenzelwa uYehova. 42 Lo mnikelo utshiswayo umele uhlale usenziwa, kuzo zonke izizukulwana zenu, wenziwe ngasemnyangweni wentente yokuhlangana phambi koYehova, apho ndiya kuzibonakalisa khona kuni ukuze ndithethe nani.+

43 “Ndiza kuzibonakalisa kumaSirayeli apho, ize loo ndawo ingcwaliswe luzuko lwam.+ 44 Ndiza kuyingcwalisa intente yokuhlangana nesibingelelo, ndimngcwalise noAron noonyana bakhe+ ukuze babe ngababingeleli bam. 45 Ndiza kuhlala* phakathi kwabantu bakwaSirayeli, ndize ndibe nguThixo wabo.+ 46 Nakanjani na baza kutsho bazi ukuba ndinguYehova uThixo wabo, owabakhuphayo kwilizwe laseYiputa ukuze ndihlale nabo.+ NdinguYehova uThixo wabo.
