1Wathetha uYehova kuMoses nakuAron, esithi, 2Libale inani loonyana bakaKehati abaphakathi koonyana bakaLevi ngokwemizalwane yabo, ngokwezindlu zooyise, 3uthabathele kominyaka imashumi mathathu ezelwe, unyuse, use kominyaka imashumi mahlanu ezelwe: labo bonke abeza kuphuma umkhosi, ukuba benze umsebenzi enteteni yokuhlangana.
4Nguwo lo umsebenzi woonyana bakaKehati ententeni yokuhlangana wengcwele kangcwele: 5ekundulukeni komkhosi eminqubeni bongena ooAron noonyana bakhe, bawuthule umkhusane osisisitheliso, bayigubungele ngawo ityeya yesingqino. 6Bobeka phezu kwawo isigubungelo sezikhumba zamahlengezi batwabulule ngaphezulu ingubo ebala limsi liphela, bazifake izibonda zawo.
7Ize batwabulule ingubo ebala limsi phezu kwetafile yezonka zokubonisa, babeke phezu kwayo izitya, neenkamba, namathunga, neendebe zokuthululwa, nezonka zamaxhesha onke, zibe phezu kwayo. 8Botwabulula phezu kwazo ingubo ebomvu, bagubungele ngesigubungelo sezikhumba zamahlengezi, bafake izibonda zayo.
9Bothabatha ingubo ebala limsi, bagubungele isiphatho sezikhanyiso nezibane zaso, nezifinyiso zaso, neenkamba zaso, nazo zonke izitya zeoli zaso abasilungiselela ngazo; 10basibeke nempahla yaso yonke esigubungelweni sezikhumba zamahlengezi, basibeke ethaleni.
11Ize batwabulule phezu kwesibingelelo segolide ingubo ebala limsi, bayigubungele ngesigubungelo sezikhumba zamahlengezi, bafake izibonda zaso. 12Bothabatha yonke impahla yokulungiselela, abalungiselela ngayo engcweleni, bayibeke engutyeni ebala limsi, bayigubungele ngesigubungelo sezikhumba zamahlengezi, bayibeke ethaleni.
13Boluwola uthuthu lwesibingelelo, batwabulule phezu kwaso ingubo emfusa; 14bazibeke phezu kwayo zonke iimpahla zaso, abalungiselela ngazo kuso: iingcedevu zamalahle, neefolokhwe, nemihlakulwana, nezitya zokutshiza, zonke iimpahla zesibingelelo, batwabulule phezu kwazo isigubungelo sezikhumba zamahlengezi, bafake izibonda zaso; 15bagqibe ooAron noonyana bakhe ukuyigubungela ingcwele nempahla yonke yengcwele ekundulukeni komkhosi eminqubeni.
Emveni koko ke boza kuthwala oonyana bakaKehati; bangayichukumisi ingcwele, hleze bafe. Nguwo lowo umthwalo woonyana bakaKehati ententeni yokuhlangana.

21Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi, 22Libale inani loonyana bakaGershon nabo, ngokwezindlu zooyise, ngokwemizalwane yabo, 23bethabathela kominyaka imashumi mathathu ezelwe, banyuse, base kominyaka imashumi mahlanu ezelwe; wobabala bonke abeza kuphuma umkhosi, ukuba basebenze ententeni yokuhlangana.
