6 UJehova waragela phambili wathi kuMosi:
2 “Nange umuntu ona angathembeki kuJehova+ ngokukhohlisa umakhelwanakhe ngento aphathiswe yona, namkha ngento abolekwe yona+ namkha adlelezele umakhelwanakhe,
3 namkha nange afumana okuthileko okulahlekileko bekaleye amala ngakho, nange afunga amala ngananyana ngisiphi isono asenzileko,+ nakhu okufuze akwenze:
4 Nange umuntu onile begodu amlandu kufuze abuyise akwebileko, akudlelezeleko, ebekaphathiswe khona namkha into ebeyilahlekile ayifumeneko,
5 namkha nanyana yini ayifunge ngamala, kufuze ahlawule begodu angezelele ingcenye yinye kezihlanu yehlawulo leyo.+ Kufuze ayinikele umnikazi ngelanga afunyenwe amlandu ngalo.
6 Kufuze alethe kumphristi iramu eliphile kuhle alithethe emhlambinakhe bona libe mnikelo womlandu oya kuJehova, ngokwesilinganiso esifaneleko somnikelo womlandu.+
7 Umphristi uzomenzela umnikelo wokulitjalelwa kwezono phambi kwakaJehova begodu uzokulitjalelwa nanyana yini ayenzileko, eyenze bona abe mlandu.”+
8 UJehova waragela phambili wakhuluma noMosi, wathi:
9 “Tjela u-Aroni namadodanakhe uthi, “Nakhu umthetho womnikelo otjhiswako:+ Umnikelo otjhiswako kufuze uhlale emlilweni ose-aldareni ubusuku boke bekube sekuseni begodu umlilo we-aldareni akukafuzi ucime.
10 Umphristi kufuze ambathe isambatho sakhe sobuphristi esenziwe ngelineni,+ ambathe nebhrugwana langaphasi elenziwe ngelineni.+ Nje-ke umphristi uzokususa umlotha+ womnikelo otjhiswako otjhiswe mlilo ose-aldareni awubeke eqadi kwe-aldara.
11 Uzokuhlubula izambatho zakhe+ ambathe ezinye bekathathe umlotha awuse endaweni ehlwengileko, ngaphandle kwekampa.+
12 Umlilo uzokuhlala uvutha e-aldareni, akukafuzi ucime. Umphristi kufuze abase iinkuni+ qobe ekuseni begodu ahlalise kuhle umnikelo otjhiswako phezu kwazo. Kufuze atjhise umhlwehlwe womhlatjelo wetjhebiswano phezu kwazo.+
13 Umlilo kufuze uhlale uvutha e-aldareni, akukafuzi ucime.
14 Nje-ke lo mthetho womnikelo weenthoro:+ Nina madodana ka-Aroni kufuze niwulethe phambi kwakaJehova phambi kwe-aldara.
15 Omunye wawo uzokunghwatha iflowuru esefiweko yomnikelo weenthoro izale isandla, namanye wamafuthawo nayo yoke ipepho emhlophe esemnikelweni weenthoro, uzoyitjhisa e-aldareni bona ibe liphunga elimnandi ukwenzela bona uJehova akhumbule woke umnikelo.+
16 U-Aroni namadodanakhe bazokudla okuseleko emnikelweni weenthoro,+ bazokudla njengoburotho obunganasibiliso endaweni ecwengileko. Bazokudlela ngesirhodlweni setende lokuhlangana.+
17 Akukafuzi ibhagwe nananyana yini enesibiliso.+ Ngilokhu engibapha khona eminikelwenami eyenziwe ngomlilo,+ kucwengeke khulu+ njengomnikelo wesono nanjengomnikelo womlandu.
18 Zoke iinzukulwana zaka-Aroni eziduna zizowudla.+ Ngilokhu ezizokuhlala zikufumana eminikelweni kaJehova eyenziwe ngomlilo kizo zoke iinzukulwana.+ Nanyana yini ethinta iminikelo izokucwengeka.’”
19 UJehova wakhuluma noMosi godu:
20 “Lo mnikelo ka-Aroni namadodanakhe abazowuletha kuJehova ngelanga azeswe ngalo:+ Kwetjhumi kwe-efa*+ yeflowuru esefiweko bona kube mnikelo weenthoro waqobe,+ enye ingcenye bazoyinikela ekuseni kuthi enye ingcenye bayinikele ntambama.
21 Izokuhlanganiswa namafutha yenzelwe epanini.+ Uzoyiletha ihlanganiswe kuhle namafutha begodu ihletjhulwe ibe ziinquntwana bona ibe mnikelo weenthoro obhagiweko, iphunga elimnandi eliya kuJehova.
22 Umphristi ozesiweko ozokuthatha isikhundla saka-Aroni hlangana namadodanakhe uzowenza.+ Lesi sinqophiso esizokusebenza ngokungapheliko: Umnikelo opheleleko oya kuJehova kufuze utjhiswe.
23 Woke umnikelo weenthoro womphristi kufuze ube mnikelo opheleleko. Akukafuzi udliwe.”
24 Godu uJehova wakhuluma noMosi, wathi:
25 “Tjela u-Aroni namadodanakhe uthi, ‘Lo mthetho womnikelo wesono:+ Lapho kuhlatjelwa khona+ umnikelo otjhiswako kulapho umnikelo wesono uzokuhlatjelwa khona phambi kwakaJehova. Yinto ecwengeke khulu.
26 Uzokudliwa mphristi owenza umnikelo wesono.+ Uzokudlelwa endaweni ecwengileko, esirhodlweni setende lokuhlangana.+
27 “‘Nanyana yini ethinta inyama yomnikelo izokucwengeka, nanyana ngubani ofafaza iingazi zawo esambathweni sakhe kufuze asihlanze endaweni ecwengileko.
28 Izitja zomdaka* ebeyibiliswe ngazo ziphadlhwe kodwana nangabe beyibiliswe ngezitja zekhopha, izitjezo kufuze zikirwe begodu zihlanzwe ngamanzi.
29 “‘Woke amadoda abaphristi azokudla inyama yomnikelo loyo.+ Yinto ecwengeke khulu.+
30 Kodwana inyama yomnikelo wesono akukafuzi idliwe nangabe ezinye zeengazi zawo zilethwe etendeni lokuhlangana bona kwenziwe umnikelo wokulitjalelwa kwezono endaweni ecwengileko,+ kufuze itjhiswe ngomlilo.
