25. Kwathi ngobo busuku, wathi uYehova kuye, Thabatha inkunzi yenkomo eyekayihlo, eyesibini inkunzi eminyaka isixhenxe, usidilize isibingelelo sikaBhahali* sikayihlo, umgawule uAshera* ongakuso;
26. wakhe isibingelelo kuYehova uThixo wakho encotsheni yale nqaba, usilungiselele, uthabathe eyesibini inkunzi, unyuse idini elinyukayo ngeenkuni zika-Ashera omgawuleyo.
27. UGidiyon wathabatha amadoda alishumi kubakhonzi bakhe; wenza njengoko wathethayo uYehova kuye. Kwathi, kuba esoyika indlu kayise namadoda aloo mzi, akenza emini, wenza ebusuku.
28. Avuka kusasa ngengomso amadoda aloo mzi: naso isibingelelo sikaBhahali sidiliziwe, egawulwe noAshera obengakuso, neyesibini inkunzi inyusiwe phezu kwesibingelelo esibe sakhiwe.
29. Yathi enye kwenye, Ngubani na lo wenzé le nto? Abuza, afuna. Bathi, NguGidiyon unyana kaYowashe, lo wenzé le nto.
30. Athi amadoda aloo mzi kuYowashe, Khupha unyana wakho, afe; ngokuba úsidilizile isibingelelo sikaBhahali, wamgawula uAshera obengakuso.
