“ ‘Nxa niduka ningagcini yonke le miyalo uJehova ayikhulumile kuMose, konke uJehova aniyalile ngesandla sikaMose, kusukela osukwini uJehova ayala ngalo nangasemuva ezizukulwaneni zenu, kuyakuthi uma kwenziwe kungengamabomu, futhi kungesemehlweni enhlangano, inhlangano yonke inikele ngeduna libe ngumnikelo wokushiswa wephunga elimnandi kuJehova kanye nomnikelo wayo wempuphu, nomnikelo wayo wokuphuzwa ngokomthetho, nempongo ibe nye, ibe ngumnikelo wesono. Umpristi uyakuyenzela yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukubuyisana, baze bathethelelwe, ngokuba kwakungengamabomu, futhi balethile umnikelo wabo, umnikelo womlilo kuJehova, nomnikelo wabo wesono phambi kukaJehova ngesiphosiso sabo; yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli iyakuthethelelwa kanye nomfokazi ogogobeleyo kubo, ngokuba kubo bonke abantu kwakungesiphosiso.
“ ‘Uma umuntu ona kungengamabomu, uyakunikela ngembuzikazi enomnyaka munye, ibe ngumnikelo wesono. Umpristi uyakwenzela umuntu ophosisayo ukubuyisana, nxa ona kungengamabomu phambi kukaJehova ukumenzela ukubuyisana, athethelelwe. Niyakuba nomthetho munye kowenza kungengamabomu, nakowokuzalwa ekhaya phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo.
“ ‘Kepha okwenza ngesandla esiphakemeyo, noma engowokuzalwa ekhaya noma engumfokazi, uyamhlambalaza uJehova; lowo muntu uyakunqunywa kubantu bakubo. Ngokuba udelele izwi likaJehova, nomyalo wakhe uwaphulile; lowo muntu uyakunqunywa impela, ububi bakhe bube phezu kwakhe.’ ”
Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli besesehlane bafumana umuntu otheza izinkuni ngosuku lwesabatha. Abamfumana etheza izinkuni bamyisa kuMose naku-Aroni nakuyo yonke inhlangano. Bambeka ukuba alindwe, ngokuba kwakungakanqunywa ukuthi kuyakwenziwani kuye. UJehova wathi kuMose: “Lowo muntu wobulawa nokubulawa; yonke inhlangano iyakumkhanda ngamatshe ngaphandle kwekamu.”* Yonke inhlangano yamkhiphela ngaphandle kwekamu,* yamkhanda ngamatshe, wafa, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.
UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: “Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, usho kubo ukuba bazenzele insephe emiphethweni yezingubo zabo ezizukulwaneni zabo, futhi ukuba babeke igoda eliluhlaza ensepheni yemiphetho yonke; lokhu kuyakuba kini insephe ukuba niyibheke, nikhumbule yonke imiyalo kaJehova, niyenze, ningahambi ngeyenu inhliziyo nangawenu amehlo enanivama ukukulandela ngokuphinga, ukuba nikhumbule, niyenze yonke imiyalo yami, nibe ngcwele kuNkulunkulu wenu. NginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu owanikhipha ezweni laseGibithe, ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.”
