Isivumelwano sikaMose eHorebe
1Lawa angamazwi esivumelwano uJehova ayala ngaso uMose ukuba asenze nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ezweni lakwaMowabi ngaphandle kwesivumelwano asenza nabo eHorebe.
2UMose wayesebiza wonke u-Israyeli, wathi kubo: “Nikubonile konke uJehova akwenzayo phambi kwamehlo enu ezweni laseGibhithe kuFaro nakuzo zonke izinceku zakhe nakulo lonke izwe lakhe;
3izilingo ezinkulu azibonayo amehlo enu, izibonakaliso lalezozimangaliso ezinkulu;
4Kodwa uJehova akaninikanga inhliziyo yokubona namehlo okubona nezindlebe zokuzwa kuze kube namuhla.
5Nganihola iminyaka engamashumi amane ehlane; izingubo zenu azigugelanga phezu kwenu, nesicathulo sakho asiguganga ezinyaweni zakho.
6Anidlanga sinkwa, niphuze iwayini noma okuphuzwayo, ukuze nazi ukuthi nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.
7Senifikile kule ndawo, uSihoni inkosi yaseHeshiboni no-Ogi inkosi yaseBashani baphuma ukulwa nathi, sabahlula;
8Salithatha izwe labo, salinika abakwaRubeni nabakwaGadi nenxenye yesizwe sakwaManase njengefa.
9Bese nigcina amazwi alesi sivumelwano niwenze, ukuze niphumelele kukho konke enikwenzayo.
10Nimi nonke namuhla phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu; izinhloko zezizwe zenu, namalunga enu, nezinceku zenu, nawo onke amadoda akwa-Israyeli,
11Abantwana bakho, omkekho, nomfokazi wakho osekamu lakho, kusukela kumgawuli wakho wezinkuni kuze kufike emthonjeni wakho.
12Ukuba wenze isivumelwano noJehova uNkulunkulu wakho nangesifungo sakhe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho asenza nawe namuhla.
13Ukuze namuhla aniqinise nibe yisizwe sakhe, abe nguNkulunkulu kini, njengokusho kwakhe kini nanjengokuthembisa kwakhe ngesifungo koyihlo, o-Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe.
14Futhi ngenza nani kuphela lesi sivumelwano nalesi sifungo;
15kodwa naye omi lapha nathi namuhla phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, futhi naye ongekho lapha nathi namuhla.
16“Ngokuba niyazi ukuthi sahlala kanjani ezweni laseGibithe, nokuthi sadabula izizwe enadabula kuzo;
17Wabona izinengiso zabo nezithombe zabo, zokhuni, netshe, nesiliva, negolide, ziphakathi kwabo.
18Ukuze kungabikho phakathi kwenu owesilisa, noma owesifazane, noma umndeni, noma isizwe esinhliziyo yaso iphambukela kuJehova namuhla ukuba ahambe akhonze onkulunkulu balezi zizwe; ukuze kungabikho mpande ezala inyongo nenyongo;
19Futhi lapho ezwa amazwi alesi siqalekiso, azibusise enhliziyweni yakhe futhi athi: Ngiyoba nokuthula, noma ngihamba ngenkambiso yenhliziyo yami, ukuze ngengeze ukudakwa ekomeni.
20UJehova akayikumhawukela, kepha lapho intukuthelo kaJehova nokushisekela kwakhe kuyakushunqa kulowo muntu, zibe phezu kwakhe zonke iziqalekiso ezilotshwe kule ncwadi, uJehova alibize igama lakhe phansi kwezulu, azesule.
21UJehova uyakumahlukanisela okubi kuzo zonke izizwe zakwa-Israyeli njengazo zonke iziqalekiso zesivumelwano ezilotshwe kule ncwadi yomthetho.
22Yilokhu okuyakushiwo isizukulwane esizayo sabantwana benu esiyakuvela emva kwenu, nomfokazi ovela ezweni elikude, lapho zibona izinhlupho zalelo zwe nezifo uJehova azibeke phezu kwalo;
23Lonke izwe lalo liyisibabule nosawoti nokuvutha, ukuthi lingahlwanyeli, lingazali, kungabikho tshani obumila kulo, njengokuchithwa kweSodoma neGomora, i-Adima neSeboyimi uJehova ayichitha ekubhujisweni kwayo. Ulaka nolaka lwakhe;
24Futhi zonke izizwe ziyakuthi: Kungani uJehova enze lokhu kuleli zwe na? kusho ukuthini ukushisa kwalolu laka olukhulu?
25Khona-ke abantu bayakuthi: “Ngokuba basishiya isivumelwano sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise asenza nabo ekubakhiphani kwakhe ezweni laseGibithe.”
26Bahamba bakhonza abanye onkulunkulu, babakhonza, onkulunkulu ababengabazi, futhi engazange abanike zona.
27Intukuthelo kaJehova yalivuthela leli zwe ukuba alehlisele phezu kwalo zonke iziqalekiso ezilotshwe kule ncwadi.
28UJehova wabasiphula ezweni labo ngokuthukuthela nangokufutheka nangokufutheka okukhulu wabaphonsa kwelinye izwe njenganamuhla.
29Izinto ezifihliweyo zingezikaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, kodwa izinto ezembuliwe zingezethu nabantwana bethu kuze kube phakade, ukuze senze wonke amazwi alo mthetho.
