1. Bafika oonyana bakaSirayeli, lonke ibandla, entlango yaseTsin ngenyanga yokuqala; bahlala abantu eKadeshe. Wafela khona uMiriyam, wangcwatyelwa khona.
2. Lalingenamanzi ibandla. Babizelana ndawonye ngoMoses nangoAron,
3. babambana abantu noMoses, bathi, Akwaba sibe siphume umphefumlo oko abazalwana bethu baphuma umphefumlo phambi koYehova!
4. Yini na ukuba nisingenise isikhungu sikaYehova kule ntlango, sifele kuyo, thina neenkomo zethu?
5. Yini na ukuba nisinyuse eYiputa, nisizise kule ndawo imbi kangaka? Asindawo yambewu, namakhiwane, namidiliya, nazirharnate, tu namanzi okusela!
6. Besuka ooMoses noAron ebusweni besikhungu, baya emnyango wentente yokuhlangana, bawa ngobuso. Babonakala ubuqaqawuli bukaYehova kubo.
