Igceke
9 Walenza negceke; ngaseningizimu ohlangothini lwaseningizimu izilenge zegceke zaziyilineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo, izingalo eziyikhulu. 10Izinsika zazo zazingamashumi amabili, nezinyawo zazo zazingamashumi amabili zethusi; izingwegwe zezinsika nezibopho zazo zaziyisiliva. 11Ngasohlangothini lwasenyakatho yizingalo eziyikhulu, izinsika zazo zingamashumi amabili, nezinyawo zazo zingamashumi amabili zethusi; izingwegwe zezinsika nemishayo yazo kwakuyisiliva.
12Ngasohlangothini olungasentshonalanga izilenge zaziyizingalo ezingamashumi ayisihlanu, izinsika zazo zaziyishumi, nezinyawo zazo zaziyishumi; izingwegwe zezinsika nemishayo yazo kwakuyisiliva. 13Nangasempumalanga ngasohlangothini olungasempumalanga yizingalo ezingamashumi ayisihlanu. 14Izilenge kwelinye icele lesango zaziyizingalo eziyishumi nanhlanu; izinsika zazo zazintathu, nezinyawo zazo zazintathu. 15Kwaba njalo nakwelinye icele: ngalapha nangalapha kwesango legceke zazikhona izilenge eziyizingalo eziyishumi nanhlanu; izinsika zazo zazintathu, nezinyawo zazo zazintathu. 16Zonke izilenge zegceke nxazonke zazingezelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo. 17Izinyawo zezinsika zaziyithusi, izingwegwe zezinsika nemishayo yazo kwakuyisiliva; izihloko zazo zazinamekwe ngesiliva; zonke izinsika zegceke zazinesibopho sesiliva.
18Iveli lesango legceke lalingumsebenzi womfekethisi ngokuluhlaza nangokububende nangokubomvu, nangelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo; ubude balo babuyizingalo ezingamashumi amabili, nokuphakama ngokobubanzi bezilenge kwakuyizingalo eziyisihlanu ngokulingene nezilenge zegceke. 19Izinsika zalo zazizine, nezinyawo zalo zazizine zethusi; izingwegwe zaziyisiliva, ukunamekwa kwezihloko nokwezibopho kwakuyisiliva. 20Zonke izikhonkwane zetabernakele* nezegceke nxasonke zaziyithusi.
