Isijeziso ngokumelene nobugebengu nokuphinga

1UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

2Uzakuthi kubantwana bakoIsrayeli: Yilowo lalowo wabantwana bakoIsrayeli loba owezizwe ohlala kwaIsrayeli, onikela inzalo yakhe kuMoloki; kufanele abulawe impela; abantu bezwe bayakumkhanda ngamatshe.

3Ngiyakubeka ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu, ngimnqume phakathi kwabantu bakubo; ngoba wanika uMologi enye inzalo yakhe ukuze angcolise indlu yami engcwele futhi angcolise ibizo lami elingcwele.

4Uma abantu bezwe befihla nokufihla amehlo abo kumuntu, lapho enika uMoloki enye yenzalo yakhe, bangambulali;

5Khona-ke ngiyobhekisa ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu nomndeni wakhe ngimnqume kanye nabo bonke abaphingayo ngemva kwakhe ukuze baphinge noMoloki, basuke phakathi kwabantu bakubo.

6Umphefumulo ophendukela emimoyeni yabafileyo nakubathakathi ukuba ufebe emva kwabo, ngiyakubhekisa ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu, ngiwunqume phakathi kwabantu bakubo.

7Ngakho zingcweliseni libe ngcwele, ngoba nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.

8Anogcina izimiso zami, nizenze; nginguJehova oningcwelisayo.

9Ngoba yilowo nalowo othuka uyise noma unina wobulawa nokubulawa; wathuka uyise noma unina; igazi lakhe liyakuba phezu kwakhe.

10Umuntu ophinga nomfazi wenye indoda, nalowo ophinga nomkamakhelwane wakhe, isiphingi nesiphingikazi bayakubulawa nokubulawa.

11Umuntu olala nomkayise wambulile ihlazo likayise; bobabili bayakubulawa impela; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo.

12Uma indoda ilala nomalokazana wayo, bobabili bayakubulawa nokubulawa; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo.

13“ ‘Uma indoda ilala nendoda, njengokuba ilala nowesifazane, bobabili benzile isinengiso; kufanele babulawe impela; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo.

14Uma indoda ithatha umfazi kanye nonina, kungububi; bayakushiswa ngomlilo, yona kanye nabo; ukuze kungabi khona ububi phakathi kwenu.

15Uma umuntu elala nesilwane, wobulawa nokubulawa; futhi kumelwe usibulale isilwane.

16Uma owesifazane esondela esilwaneni, alale kuso, kumelwe nimbulale owesifazane nesilwane; kufanele babulawe impela; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo.

17Uma umuntu ethatha udadewabo, indodakazi kayise noma indodakazi kanina, abone ihlazo lakhe, naye alibone ihlazo lakhe; kuyinto embi; futhi bayonqunywa phambi kwamehlo abantu bakubo. Wadalula ihlazo likadadewabo; uyakuthwala ububi bakhe.

18“ ‘Uma indoda ilala nowesifazane onesifo sakhe, ambule ihlazo lakhe; wembula umthombo wakhe, wembula umthombo wegazi lakhe; futhi bobabili bayonqunywa phakathi kwabantu bakubo.

19Futhi ungalidaluli ihlazo likadadewabo kanyoko nelikadadewabo kayihlo, ngokuba wambulile umakhelwane wakhe; bazathwala ububi babo.

20Uma indoda ilala nomkayisekazi, yambulile ihlazo likayisekazi; kufanele bathwale isono sabo; bayofa bengenamntwana.

21Uma umuntu ethatha umkamfowabo, kungcolile; wadalula ihlazo lomfowabo; bazakuba bengenamntwana.

22Ngakho anogcina zonke izimiso zami nezahlulelo zami zonke, nizenze, funa izwe enginiyisa kulo ukuba nihlale kulo, linikhafulele.

23Akumelwe nihambe ngezindlela zesizwe engisixosha phambi kwenu; ngokuba benze zonke lezi zinto, ngase ngibenyanya.

24Kodwa ngathi kini: Lizakudla ilifa lelizwe labo, njalo ngizalinika lona libe ngelenu, ilizwe elichichima ubisi lezinyosi; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu owanithatha ezizweni ezihlukeneyo.

25Ngakho kumelwe wenze umehluko phakathi kokuhlanzekile nokungcolile phakathi kwezinyoni ezingcolile nezihlanzekile; aniyikwenza imiphefumulo yenu ibe yisinengiso ngezilwane, nangezinyoni, nangezilwane ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni engizahlukanisele kini njengabangcolile.

26Niyakuba ngcwele kimi, ngokuba mina Jehova ngingcwele, nginahlukanisile nabezizwe ukuba nibe ngabami.

27Futhi, owesilisa noma owesifazane onomoya wemvelo yokuxhamazela noma umthakathi kumelwe nakanjani abulawe; kumelwe bakhandwe ngamatshe; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo.
