UNumeri 8 Ukukhanyiswa kwezibani

¹ UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

² Tshono kuAroni uthi kuye: Nxa ukhanyisa izibane, izibane eziyisikhombisa zizakhanyisa phambi koluthi lwesibane.

³ U-Aroni wenze njalo; wakhanyisa izibani zakhe malungana nothi lwezibani, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

⁴ Lo msebenzi wothi lwezibani wawungokwegolide elikhandiweyo, kwaze kwafika esiqwini salo, nasezimbalini zalo, kwakungumsebenzi okhandiweyo; njengokwesibonelo uJehova ambonisa uMose, walwenza uluthi lwesibani.

⁵ UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

⁶ Khipha amaLevi phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ubahlambulule.

⁷ Nanku oyakukwenza kubo ukubahlambulula: Fafaza phezu kwabo ngamanzi okuhlambulula, baphucule umzimba wabo wonke, bahlanze izingubo zabo, bahlanzeke.

⁸ Khona-ke mabathathe iduna nomnikelo walo wokudla, ufulawa ocolekileyo oswakanyiswe namafutha, futhi kumelwe uthathe elinye iduna libe ngumnikelo wesono.

⁹ Wosondeza amaLevi phambi kwetende lokuhlangana, ubuthe yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

¹⁰ Kumelwe ulethe amaLevi phambi kukaJehova, futhi abantwana bakwa-Israyeli kumelwe babeke izandla zabo phezu kwamaLevi.

¹¹ U-Aroni kumelwe alethe amaLevi phambi kukaJehova abe ngumhlatshelo wabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ukuze bafeze inkonzo kaJehova.

¹² AmaLevi kumelwe abeke izandla zawo phezu kwezinhloko zezinkunzi, futhi kumelwe ulungise enye ibe ngumnikelo wesono nenye ibe ngumnikelo wokushiswa kuJehova ukwenzela amaLevi ukubuyisana.

¹³ Kumelwe ubeke amaLevi phambi kuka-Aroni naphambi kwamadodana akhe futhi unikele ngawo njengomnikelo kuJehova.

¹⁴ Ngakho kumelwe uwahlukanise amaLevi phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, amaLevi abe ngawami.

¹⁵ Ngasemuva amaLevi ayakungena ukwenza inkonzo yetende lokuhlangana; kumelwe uzihlanze futhi uzinikele njengomhlatshelo.

¹⁶ Ngokuba baphiwa mina impela phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; esikhundleni salabo abavula zonke izizalo zikanina, esikhundleni samazibulo abo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ngabathatha bona.

¹⁷ Ngokuba ngawami onke amazibulo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, abantu nawezilwane; mhla ngibulala amazibulo onke ezweni laseGibithe, ngawangcwelisela kimi.

¹⁸ Ngathatha amaLevi esikhundleni samazibulo onke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

¹⁹ Ngamnika u-Aroni namadodana akhe amaLevi phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, abe yisipho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, benze inkonzo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli etendeni lokuhlangana, benzele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukubuyisana. Kasikho isifo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli besondela endlini engcwele.

²⁰ OMose no-Aroni nayo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli benza kumaLevi, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose ngamaLevi, benze njalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli kuwo.

²¹ AmaLevi ahlanjululwa, kwahlanzwa izingubo zawo; u-Aroni wakuletha njengomnikelo phambi kukaJehova; u-Aroni wabenzela ukubuyisana ukuze abahlambulule.

²² Ngasemuva amaLevi angena ukwenza inkonzo yawo etendeni lokuhlangana phambi kuka-Aroni naphambi kwamadodana akhe; njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose ngamaLevi, benze njalo kuwo.

²³ UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

²⁴ Yilokhu okungokwamaLevi: kusukela kwabaneminyaka engamashumi amabili nanhlanu kuya phezulu kumelwe angene enkonzweni yetende lokuhlangana.

²⁵ Futhi kusukela eminyakeni engamashumi amahlanu ubudala bayoyeka ukulinda inkonzo yayo futhi ngeke besakhonza.

²⁶ Kodwa kumelwe bakhonze kanye nabafowabo etendeni lokuhlangana ukuze bagcine inkonzo futhi bangenzi msebenzi wenkonzo. Uyakwenze njalo kumaLevi lokho okuthinta umyalo wawo.
