3. Bathe ke abantu bakuwuva lo mthetho, basuka bamchwethela phaya wonke umntu osondele kuSirayeli kodwa engowomlibo weentlanga.

5. wada ke wamnika nendlu enkulu eyayinguvimba weminikelo yeenkozo, isiqhumiso kunye nezinto zendlu kaThixo. Zazilapho nezishumi zeenkozo, iwayini entsha, kunye namafutha omnquma, zinto ezo ke zazimiselwe ukuba sisabelo sabaLevi, iimvumi, nabalindi-masango, kwanemirhumo esisabelo sababingeleli.
