Ababulali abangezona izimpawu

1Uma kufunyanwa olahlwe endle ezweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika lona ukuba ulidle, akwaziwa ukuthi ngubani ombulele;

2Khona-ke abadala bakho nabahluleli bakho bayophuma, futhi kumelwe balinganise ngokumelene nemizi ezungezile enqotshiwe.

3Umuzi oseduze kwababuleweyo, amalunga alowo muzi, uyakuthatha ithokazi elingaboshelwa ejokeni, elingaboshelwanga;

4Abadala balowo muzi kumelwe behlisele inkomo esigodini esimangelengele, esingakakhulelwanga noma singahlwanyelwanga, futhi kumelwe anqume intamo yenkomo lapho esigodini.

6Wonke amadoda amadala alowo muzi aseduze kwalabo abanqotshiweyo kumelwe ageze izandla zawo phezu kwenkomo enqunywe ikhanda esigodini.

7Bazaphendula bathi: Izandla zethu kazilichithanga leligazi, lamehlo ethu alibonanga.

8Yiba nomusa, Jehova, kubantu bakho u-Israyeli owabahlengayo, unganiki umyalo wabantu bakho u-Israyeli igazi elingenacala. Futhi igazi bayothethelelwa.

9Ngakho kumelwe ukhiphe igazi elingenacala ngaphansi kwakho uma wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova.

10Lapho uphuma ukulwa nezitha zakho, uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho esezinikele esandleni sakho, uzithumbe,

Izindaba zomshado

11Futhi ubone phakathi kweziboshwa owesifazane omuhle, futhi umfise, ukuthi umfunele umkakho;

12Khona-ke kumelwe umlethe endlini yakho; kumelwe aphuce ikhanda lakhe futhi anqume izinzipho zakhe;

13Kumelwe asuse ingubo yakhe yokuthunjwa futhi ahlale endlini yakho alilele uyise nonina inyanga yonke; emva kwalokho ungene kuye, ube yindoda yakhe, yena abe ngumkakho.

14Futhi uma ungathokozi ngaye, kumelwe umyeke aye lapho ethanda khona; kodwa ungamthengisi neze ngemali, ungamenzeli ukuhweba, ngokuba umphoxile.

15Uma indoda inabafazi ababili, omunye ethandwa, omunye ezondwa, bayizalele abantwana, othandekayo nozondwayo; uma izibulo kuyileyo ezondwayo.

16Khona-ke kuyakuthi uma ivumela amadodana ayo ukuba abe ifa lokho anakho, angayenzi indodana yothandiweyo wakhe izibulo phambi kwendodana yozondwayo, eyizibulo ngempela;

17Kodwa indodana yomuntu ozondwayo kumelwe ivume njengezibulo ngokuyinika ingxenye ephindwe kabili yakho konke elakho; ngokuba uyisiqalo samandla akhe; ilungelo lobuzibulo lingelakhe.

18“Uma umuntu enendodana enenkani nehlubukayo engalaleli izwi likayise noma izwi likanina, noma eyilaya, engayikulalela;

19Uyise nonina bayakumbamba, bamkhiphele kumalunga omuzi wakubo nasesangweni lendawo yakhe yokuhlala;

20Kumelwe bathi emadodeni amadala omuzi wakubo: ‘Le ndodana yethu inenkani futhi idlubulunda, ayifuni ukulalela izwi lethu; uyisiminzi nesidakwa.

21Bonke abantu bomuzi wakubo bayakumkhanda ngamatshe, afe; khona-ke kumelwe ususe ububi ngaphansi kwakho; wonke u-Israyeli uyakuzwa, esabe.

22Uma umuntu enze isono esifanele ukufa, makabulawe, nimlengise esihlahleni;

23Isidumbu sakhe akumelwe sihlale esihlahleni ubusuku bonke, kodwa kumelwe umngcwabe ngalolo suku; (ngokuba olengiswayo uqalekisiwe nguNkulunkulu;) ukuze lingangcoliswa izwe lakho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika lona libe yifa lakho.
