IEksodus Chapter32
1 Ke babona abantu ukuba uMoses ulibele, akehli entabeni; bababizela ndawonye abantu kuAron, bathi kuye, Sukume, usenzele uthixo oya kuhamba phambi kwethu; kuba lo Moses, le ndoda yasinyusayo ezweni laseYiputa, asazi ukuba uhlelwe yintoni na.
2 Wathi uAron kubo, Qhawulani amajikazi egolide, asezindlebeni zabafazi benu, noonyana benu, neentombi zenu, niwazise kum.
3 Bawaqhawula ke abantu bonke amajikazi egolide abesezindlebeni zabo, bawazisa kuAron.
4 Wawathabatha ezandleni zabo, wayikrola igolide ngentlabo, wayenza ithole elityhidiweyo. Bathi, Nanko uthixo wakho, Sirayeli, okunyusileyo ezweni laseYiputa!
5 Wabona uAron, wakha isibingelelo phambi kwalo; wadanduluka uAron wathi, Ngumthendeleko kuYehova ngomso.
6 Bavuka kusasa ngengomso, banyusa amadini anyukayo, basondeza imibingelelo yoxolo; bahlala phantsi abantu, badla basela, besuka bema, badlala.
7 Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Hamba uhle; kuba abantu bakho, owabanyusayo ezweni laseYiputa, bonakalisile;
8 batyeke msinya endleleni endabawisela umthetho ngayo; bazenzele ithole elityhidiweyo, balinqula, babingelela kulo, bathi, Nanko uthixo wakho, Sirayeli, okunyusileyo ezweni laseYiputa.
9 Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Ndibakhangele aba bantu; uyabona, ngabantu abantamo ilukhuni.
10 Kaloku ndiyeke, uvuthe umsindo wam kubo, ndibadle, ndenze wena uhlanga olukhulu.
11 UMoses wambongoza uYehova uThixo wakhe, wathi, Yini na, Yehova, ukuba uvuthe umsindo wakho kubantu bakho, obakhuphileyo ezweni laseYiputa ngamandla amakhulu, nangesandla esithe nkqi?
12 Yini na ukuba amaYiputa atsho ukuthi, Wabakhuphela ububi, ukuze ababulalele ezintabeni, abagqibele bemke emhlabeni? Buya ekuvutheni komsindo wakho, uzohlwaye ngobubi obo ngenxa yabantu bakho.
13 Khumbula uAbraham noIsake noSirayeli, abakhonzi bakho, owazifunga ngokwakho kubo, wathi kubo, Ndiya kuyandisa imbewu yenu ibe njengeenkwenkwezi zezulu, neli lizwe lonke ndithethileyo ngalo, ndiya kulinika imbewu yenu, ilidle ilifa ngonaphakade.
14 Wazohlwaya ke uYehova ngobubi abethe uya kubenza ebantwini bakhe.
15 Wajika uMoses, wehla entabeni, enamacwecwe omabini esingqino esandleni sakhe, amacwecwe lawo ebhalwe ngamacala omabini, ebhalwe ngapha nangapha.
16 Amacwecwe lawo ebengumsebenzi kaThixo, nombhalo lowo ubungumbhalo kaThixo ukroliwe emacwecweni.
17 Waliva uYoshuwa izwi labantu ekudumeni kwabo, wathi kuMoses, Lilizwi lemfazwe eminqubeni.
18 Wathi yena, Asilizwi lakuduma kwabeyisayo, asilizwi lakukhala kwabeyiswayo; lilizwi labahlabelayo nabavumayo, endilivayo mna.
19 Kwathi, xa asondelayo eminqubeni, walibona ithole nomdudo. Wavutha umsindo kaMoses, wawalahla amacwecwe, wawaqhekeza emazantsi entaba.
20 Walithabatha ithole ababelenzile, walitshisa ngomlilo, walisila lada lacoleka, waligcwayela emanzini, waseza oonyana bakaSirayeli.
21 Wathi uMoses kuAron, Benze ntoni na aba bantu kuwe, ukuba ubazisele isono esikhulu kangaka?
22 Wathi uAron, Umsindo wenkosi yam mawungavuthi. Wena uyabazi aba bantu, ukuba banobubi.
23 Bathi kum, Senzele uthixo oya kuhamba phambi kwethu; kuba lo Moses, le ndoda yasinyusayo ezweni laseYiputa, asazi ukuba uhlelwe yintoni na.
24 Ndathi kubo, Ubani onegolide makayiqhawule; bandinika ke. Ndayiphosa emlilweni kwaphuma eli thole.
25 Wababona uMoses abantu, ukuba baqhawule umkhala (kuba uAron ebebaqhawulisile umkhala, ukuba babe yintlekisa phakathi kwabo bachasene nabo);
26 wema uMoses ekungeneni eminqubeni, wathi, OngakuYehova makeze kum apha. Bantontelana kuye bonke oonyana bakaLevi.
27 Wathi kubo, Utsho uYehova uThixo wakwaSirayeli, ukuthi, Mabanxibe elowo ikrele lakhe ethangeni lakhe, bathunge bephuma emasangweni eminquba, babulale elowo umzalwana wakhe, elowo uwabo, elowo ummelwane wakhe.
28 Benza oonyana bakaLevi ngokwelizwi likaMoses; kwawa ebantwini loo mini ngathi ngamawaka omathathu amadoda.
29 Wathi uMoses, Zimiseleni namhla kuYehova, ukuba umntu achase unyana wakhe nomzalwana wakhe, ithotywe namhla intsikelelo phezu kwenu.
30 Kwathi ngengomso, uMoses wathi ebantwini, Nonile nina, nenza isono esikhulu; ndiya kunyuka ngoku ndiye kuYehova; mhlawumbi ndingacamagusha ngenxa yesono senu.
31 UMoses wabuya waya kuYehova, wathi, Yoo! Aba bantu bonile, benza isono esikhulu, bazenzela uthixo ngegolide.
32 Khawusixolele ngoko isono sabo; ukuba akunakuba njalo, wose undicima encwadini yakho oyibhalileyo.
33 Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Ubani osukuba onile kum, ndiya kucima yena encwadini yam.
34 Ke ngoko hamba ubalathise abantu, baye kuloo ndawo ndathethayo ngayo kuwe. Yabona, isithunywa sam sohamba phambi kwakho; ke mini ndivelelayo, ndiya kusivelela isono sabo kubo.
35 Ke uYehova wababulala abantu ngenxa yokuba belenzile ithole elo walenzayo uAron.
