Izhibhalo Ezingcwele
IEksodus 30
1 Uze wenze isibingelelo sokuqhumisela ngesiqhumiso, usenze ngomngampunzi.2 Ubude baso boba yikubhite, ububanzi baso bube yikubhite, sibe mbombo-ne; ukuphakama kwaso kube ziikubhite ezimbini, ziphume kuso iimpondo zaso.3 Umphezulu waso wowaleka ngegolide ecocekileyo, namacala aso ngeenxa zonke, neempondo zaso; usithi jize ngesithsaba segolide.4 Uze usenzele amakhonkco abe mabini ngegolide phantsi kwesithsaba saso, ezimbombeni zaso ezimbini, emacaleni aso omabini, abe ziindawo zezibonda, sithwalwe ngazo;5 uzenze izibonda ngomngampunzi, uzaleke ngegolide.6 Uze usibeke nganeno komkhusane ongasetyeyeni yesingqino, phambi kwesihlalo sokucamagusha esiphezu kwesingqino, apho ndiya kuhlangana nawe khona.7 Woqhumisela kuso uAron ngesiqhumiso esimnandi, imiso ngemiso. Woqhumisela ngaso ekulungiseni kwakhe izibane;8 ekuzimiseni uAron izibane, lakutshona ilanga, ahlale eqhumisela ngesiqhumiso phambi koYehova, kwizizukulwana zenu.9 Kuso nize ninganyusi siqhumiso esingesesikweni, nadini linyukayo, namnikelo wakudla; namnikelo uthululwayo ningawuthululeli kuso.10 UAron makacamagushele iimpondo zaso kube kanye ngomnyaka; ngegazi ledini lesono lokucamagusha, kube kanye ngomnyaka; asicamagushele kuse kwizizukulwana zenu: siyingcwele kangcwele kuYehova.
11 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi,12 Xa ulithabathayo inani loonyana bakaSirayeli, ngokubalelwa kwabo encwadini yomlibo wokuzalwa, mabanikele elowo imali yokucamagushela umphefumlo wakhe kuYehova ekubabaleni; ukuze kungabikho sibetho kubo ekubabaleni.13 Nantsi loo nto: bonke abagqithela kwababaliweyo mabanike isiqingatha seshekele ngokweshekele yengcwele (ishekele leyo iziigera ezimashumi mabini); isiqingatha seshekele leyo yoba ngumrhumo kuYehova.14 Bonke abagqithela kwababaliweyo, bethabathela kominyaka imashumi mabini ezelwe, benyusa, mabamnike uYehova umrhumo.15 Isityebi asiyi kugqithisa, nosweleyo akayi kubetha nganeno kwesiqingatha seshekele, ukumnika umrhumo uYehova, ukucamagushela imiphefumlo yenu.16 Uze uyithabathe imali yokucamagusha koonyana bakaSirayeli, uyinikele enkonzweni yentente yokuhlangana; ukuze ibe sisikhumbuzo koonyana bakaSirayeli, phambi koYehova, ukucamagushela imiphefumlo yenu.
17 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses esithi,18 Yenza uhehema lwesitya sokuhlambela ngobhedu, noseko lwalo ngobhedu, kuhlanjelwe kulo; ulubeke phakathi kwentente yokuhlangana nesibingelelo, ugalele amanzi kulo;19 bahlambele kulo uAron noonyana bakhe izandla zabo neenyawo zabo.20 Ekungeneni kwabo ententeni yokuhlangana bohlamba ngamanzi, bangafi; nasekusondeleni kwabo esibingelelweni, besiza kulungiselela nokuqhumisela ngokudla kwasemlilweni kuYehova;21 bohlamba ke izandla zabo neenyawo zabo, ukuze bangafi; ibe ngummiselo ongunaphakade kubo, kuye lo, nakwimbewu yakhe kwizizukulwana zabo.
22 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses esithi,23 Thabathela kuwe ubulawu bohlobo: imore, ezivuzelayo ngokwayo, engamakhulu amahlanu eeshekele; isinamon enobulawu ibe sisiqingatha soko, amakhulu abe mabini anamanci mahlanu; nekalamo evumba limnandi, amakhulu abe mabini anamanci mahlanu;24 nekasiya, amakhula abe mahlanu ngokweshekele yengcwele; neoli yeminquma ibe yihin;25 uyenze ibe yioli engcwele yokuthambisa, isiqholo sokuqhola, umsebenzi womqholi, ibe yioli engcwele yokuthambisa.26 Uze uthambise ngayo intente yokuhlangana, netyeya yesingqino,27 netafile nempahla yayo yonke, nesiphatho sezibane nempahla yaso, nesibingelelo sokuqhumisela,28 nesibingelelo sedini elinyukayo neempahla zaso zonke, nohehema lwesitya sokuhlambela, noseko lwalo;29 uzingcwalise zibe yingcwele kangcwele. Zonke izinto ezizichukumisayo zoba ngcwele.30 UAron noonyana bakhe uze ubathambise, ubangcwalise, babe ngababingeleli kum.31 Wothetha koonyana bakaSirayeli, uthi, Yoba yioli engcwele yokuthambisa kum le, kwizizukulwana zenu.32 Ize ingagalelwa nyameni yamntu; uze ungenzi enjengayo ngomlinganiso wayo; ingcwele yona, mayibe ngcwele kuni.33 Umntu osukuba eqhola enjengayo, nosukuba ethabatha kuyo ayinike ongengowakuni, wonqanyulwa, angabikho ebantwini bakowabo.34 Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Zithabathele ubulawu, istorakis, neonike, negalebhana; ubulawu obo bube nentlaka emhlophe engangxengelelweyo, ibe yimilinganiso elinganayo;35 wenze ngabo isiqhumiso esiqholiweyo, umsebenzi womqholi, sigalelwe ityuwa, sihlambulukile, singcwele.36 Woyisila inxenye yazo icoleke, ucaphule, ubeke phambi kwesingqino ententeni yokuhlangana, apho ndiya kuhlangana nawe khona; yoba yingcwele kangcwele kuni.37 Isiqhumiso eso, oya kusenza ngokomlinganiso waso, ize ningazenzeli okwenu; kuwe soba yingcwele kuYehova.38 Umntu osukuba enze esinjengaso, ukuba asijoje, wonqanyulwa, angabikho ebantwini bakowabo.
