1. Wathetha uYehova kuMoses nakuAron ezweni laseYiputa, wathi,
2. Le nyanga kuni iyintloko yeenyanga; kuni yeyokuqala ezinyangeni zomnyaka.
3. Thethani kwibandla lonke lakwaSirayeli, nithi, Ngolweshumi usuku kule nyanga elowo makazithabathele ixhwane, ngokwenzindlu zooyise, ixhwane ngendlu.
4. Ukuba ithe indlu yancinane exhwaneni, makathabathe ixhwane yena enommelwane wakhe okufuphi nendlu yakhe, ngokwenani labantu; elowo ngangokokudla kwakhe nombalela exhwaneni.
5. Ixhwane lenu malibe liduna eligqibeleleyo, elimnyaka mnye; nolithabatha ezigusheni nokuba kusezibhokhweni.
6. Nize niligcine kude kube lusuku lweshumi elinesiné lwale nyanga, sílixhele ke sonke isikhungu sebandla lakwaSirayeli lakutshona ilanga;
7. bacaphule egazini, baliqabe emigubasini yomibini nasemqadini wezindlu eliya kudlelwa kuzo ngabo;
8. bayidle inyama ngobo busuku, yosiwe ngomlilo, inezonka ezingenagwele, bayidle nemithana ekrakra.
9. Musani ukudla ndawo ikrwada kuyo, nandawo ikuphekwa iphekwé ngamanzi; mayosiwe ngomlilo: intloko yalo namanqina alo nezibilini zalo.
10. Nize ningasalisi ndawo yalo kude kusé; okuseleyo kulo kwada kwasa nòkutshisa ngomlilo.
11. Nize nenjenje ukulidla; nodla nibhinqile, nineembadada ezinyaweni zenu, ninentonga esandleni senu, nilidle buphuthuphuthu: leyo yipasika* kuYehova.
12. Ndiya kucanda ezweni laseYiputa ngobu busuku, ndibethe onke amazibulo ezweni laseYiputa, ndithabathele emntwini ndise enkomeni, ndenze izigwebo koothixo bonke baseYiputa, mna Yehova.
13. Igazi elo loba ngumqondiso kuni ezindlwini enikuzo. Ndolibona igazi, ndigqithe kuni, singabikho kuni isibetho esonakalisayo, ekulibetheni kwam ilizwe laseYiputa.
14. Le mini yoba sisikhumbuzo kuni, niyenze umthendeleko kuYehova; ezizukulwaneni zenu niyenze ummiselo ongunaphakade.
15. Nodla izonka ezingenagwele iintsuku zibe sixhenxe; kwangosuku lokuqala nolisusa igwele ezindlwini zenu; kuba bonke abadla isonka esinegwele, kususela kolokuqala kude kube lusuku kwesixhenxe, bonqanyulwa bangabikho kwaSirayeli.
16. Ngomhla wokuqala kobakho intlanganiso engcwele, nangomhla wesixhenxe kobakho intlanganiso engcwele kuni. Akuyi kwenziwa msebenzi ngawo, ingengulowo wokudla komntu; nguwo wodwa eningazenzelayo.
