Imithetho yokuhlanzeka kwekamu*
1UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: 2 “Yala abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bakhiphe ekamu* bonke abanochoko, nabo bonke abacucayo, nabo bonke abangcoliswe ngabafileyo, 3 nikhiphe abesilisa nabesifazane, nibakhiphele ngaphandle kwekamu ukuba bangangcolisi ikamu engihlala phakathi kwalo.” 4Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli benze njalo, babakhiphela ngaphandle kwekamu; njengalokho uJehova ekhulume kuMose, benze njalo-ke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.
Isijeziso sokuphambana noJehova
5UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: 6 “Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Nxa owesilisa noma owesifazane enza isono esenziwa ngabantu ukuphambeka kuJehova, lowo muntu abeseba necala, 7uyakuvuma isono sakhe asenzileyo, alikhokhe icala lakhe ngokupheleleyo, athasisele kukho okwesihlanu, akunike lowo abenecala kuye. 8Kepha uma umuntu engenasihlobo elingakhokhelwa kuso icala, inkokhelo yecala eyenzelwa uJehova iyakuba ngeyompristi, ngaphandle kwenqama yokubuyisana ayakwenzelwa ukubuyisana ngayo. 9 Yonke iminikelo yokuphakanyiswa yezinto ezingcwele zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli abanikela ngayo kumpristi iyakuba ngeyakhe. 10Izinto ezingcwele zalowo nalowo ziyakuba ngezakhe; noma kungaba yini umuntu akunika umpristi, kuyakuba ngokwakhe.’ ”
Imithetho yomfazi ophingayo
11UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: 12“Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi kubo: ‘Uma umfazi womuntu eduka, aphambuke kuye, 13alale nenye indoda kusithekile emehlweni endoda yakhe, kufihlwe, angcoliswe, kungekho fakazi nokho ngaye, futhi engabanjwanga, 14afikelwe ngumoya wesikhwele, abenesikhwele ngomkakhe, yena engcolisiwe, noma efikelwe ngumoya wesikhwele, abenesikhwele ngomkakhe kodwa yena engangcoliswanga, 15 indoda iyakuletha umkayo kumpristi, imlethele umnikelo wakhe, ube ngokweshumi kwe-efa* lempuphu yebhali,* angatheli mafutha kuyo, angabeki nanhlaka kuyo, ngokuba kungumnikelo wempuphu wesikhwele, umnikelo wempuphu wesikhumbuzo sokukhumbuza ngobubi.
16“ ‘Umpristi uyakumsondeza, ambeke phambi kukaJehova, 17umpristi athathe amanzi angcwele esitsheni sebumba, athathe kulo uthuli oluphansi etabernakele,* alufake emanzini, 18umpristi ambeke owesifazane phambi kukaJehova, athukulule izinwele zekhanda lowesifazane, afake umnikelo wempuphu wesikhumbuzo ezandleni zakhe, ongumnikelo wempuphu wesikhwele; umpristi abe namanzi ababayo esandleni sakhe aveza isiqalekiso. 19Umpristi amfungise, athi kowesifazane: “Uma kungalalanga ndoda nawe, ungadukelanga ekungcoleni usephansi kwendoda yakho, mawukhululeke kulawa manzi ababayo aveza isiqalekiso; 20kepha uma udukile usephansi kwendoda yakho, futhi ungcolisiwe, kulale nawe enye indoda ngaphandle kwendoda yakho,” 21umpristi uyakufungisa owesifazane ngesifungo sesiqalekiso, umpristi athi kowesifazane: “UJehova makakwenze isiqalekiso nesifungo phakathi kwabantu bakini, lapho uJehova eshwabanisa ithanga lakho, avuvukalise isisu sakho. 22Lawa manzi aveza isiqalekiso ayakungena ezibilini zakho, avuvukalise isisu sakho, ashwabanise ithanga lakho.”
“ ‘Owesifazane uyakuthi: “Amen! Amen!”
23“ ‘Umpristi uyakubala lezi ziqalekiso encwadini, azesule ngamanzi ababayo, 24aphuzise owesifazane amanzi ababayo aveza isiqalekiso; amanzi aveza isiqalekiso ayakungena kuye, ababe. 25Umpristi uyakuthatha umnikelo wempuphu wesikhwele esandleni sowesifazane, azulise umnikelo wempuphu phambi kukaJehova, awulethe e-altare; 26umpristi uyakucaphuna ukhweshe womnikelo wempuphu, ube yisikhumbuzo sawo, awushise e-altare, andukuba amphuzise owesifazane amanzi. 27Nxa esemphuzisile amanzi, kuyakuthi uma engcolisiwe waphambuka endodeni yakhe, amanzi aveza isiqalekiso angene kuye, ababe, isisu sakhe sivuvukale, ithanga lakhe lishwabane, owesifazane aqalekiswe phakathi kwabantu bakubo. 28Kepha uma owesifazane engangcolisiwe kodwa ehlambulukile, uyakukhululeka, athole inzalo.
29“ ‘Lowo ungumthetho wesikhwele, lapho umfazi esephansi kwendoda yakhe eduka, angcoliswe, 30noma lapho indoda ifikelwa ngumoya wesikhwele, ibe nesikhwele ngomkayo; khona iyakumbeka owesifazane phambi kukaJehova, umpristi agcine wonke lo mthetho kuye. 31Indoda iyakukhululeka ebubini, kepha owesifazane uyakubuthwala ububi bakhe.’ ”
