Kodwa uma engazihlambululanga ngawo ngosuku lwesithathu, akayukuhlambuluka ngosuku lwesikhombisa. 13 Yilowo nalowo othinta isidumbu somuntu ofileyo, angazihlambululi ekungcoleni, uyongcolisa ithabanakeli likaSimakade. Lowo muntu uyonqunywa kwa-Israyeli, lokhu engafafazwanga ngamanzi okuhlambulula, uyakuhlala engongcolile; ukungcola kwakhe kungasuki kuye.

14“ ‘Nanku umthetho uma umuntu efela ethendeni: yilowo nalowo ongena ethendeni nalowo osethendeni uyakuba ngongcolileyo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa. 15Nazo zonke izitsha ezivulekileyo ezingenaso isisibekelo esiboshwe kuzo zingcolile.

16 “ ‘Yilowo nalowo othinta obulewe ngenkemba endle, noma ozifele nje, noma ithambo lomuntu, noma ithuna, uyakuba ngongcolileyo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa.

17 “ ‘Abangcolileyo bayakuthatha umlotha wokushayo komnikelo wesono, namanzi agobhozayo bakuthele ndawonye esitsheni, 18umuntu ohlambulukileyo uyothatha ihisopi, aligcobhoze emanzini, afafaze ngawo ithende, nezitsha zonke, nabantu abalapho, nalowo othinte ithambo, noma obuleweyo, noma isidumbu, noma ithuna. 19 Ohlambulukileyo uyofafaza ongahlambulukile ngosuku lwesithathu nangosuku lwesikhombisa, amhlambulule ngosuku lwesikhombisa, bese ehlanza izingubo zakhe, ageze ngamanzi, ahlambuluke ngakusihlwa. 20 Umuntu ongcolileyo futhi ongazihlambululanga, lowo uyakunqunywa ebandleni ngoba engcolise indawo kaSimakade engcwele. Lokhu engafafazwanga ngamanzi okuhlambulula, ungcolile. 21 Lokhu kuyakuba yisimiso esiphakade kubo; lowo oyofafaza amanzi okuhlambulula, uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe, nalowo othinta amanzi okuhlambulula uyakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe. 22 Konke okuyothintwa ngumuntu ongcolileyo kuyoba ngokungcolile; umuntu oyokuthinta uyoba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.’ ”
