Eksodusi 12 Isingeniso sePhasika

¹ UJehova wakhuluma kuMose naku-Aroni ezweni laseGibithe, wathi:

² Le nyanga iyakuba kini eyokuqala kwezinyanga; kumelwe kube yinyanga yokuqala yonyaka kini.

³ Khulumani kuyo yonke inhlangano yakwa-Israyeli, nithi: Ngolweshumi lwale nyanga bayakuzithathela yilowo nalowo imvu ngokwezindlu zawoyise, iwundlu ngendlu.

⁴ Uma indlu iyingcosana kunewundlu, makayithabathe yena nomakhelwane wakhe oseduze nendlu yakhe ngokwesibalo sabantu; kube yilowo nalowo njengokudla kwakhe iwundlu.

⁵ Iwundlu lakho kumelwe libe elingenasici, eliduna elinonyaka owodwa; uyakulithatha ezimvini noma ezimbuzini.

⁶ Lizawugcina kuze kube lusuku lwetshumi lane lwaleyo nyanga, njalo ibandla lonke lenhlangano yakoIsrayeli lizalihlaba kusihlwa.

⁷ Kumelwe bathathe elinye igazi balibhece ezinsikeni ezimbili ezisemaceleni nasezinsikeni ezingaphezulu zezindlu abazolidlela kuzo.

⁸ Bayakuyidla inyama ngalobo busuku, yosiwe ngomlilo nesinkwa esingenamvubelo; bayakuyidla kanye nemifino ebabayo.

⁹ Ningayidli iluhlaza, futhi ingacwiliswanga nhlobo emanzini, kodwa yosiwe emlilweni; ikhanda layo nemilenze yalo, kanye nokusunduza kwalo.

¹⁰ Akumelwe nishiye lutho lwalo kuze kube sekuseni; okuseleyo kukho kuze kuse, nikushise ngomlilo.

¹¹ Ngakho kumelwe ukudle; niboshiwe izinkalo zenu, nezicathulo zenu ezinyaweni zenu nodondolo lwenu esandleni senu; futhi kumelwe ukudle ngokushesha; kuyiPhasika leNkosi.

¹² Ngiyakudabula izwe laseGibithe ngalobu busuku, ngibulale onke amazibulo ezweni laseGibithe, abantu nezilwane; ngiyakwahlulela bonke onkulunkulu baseGibithe; nginguJehova.

¹³ Igazi liyakuba yisibonakaliso kini ezindlini enikhona; futhi lapho ngibona igazi, ngizodlula phezu kwenu, futhi isifo ngeke sibe phezu kwenu ukuze sinibhubhise lapho ngishaya izwe laseGibhithe.

¹⁴ Lolu suku luyakuba yisikhumbuzo kini; futhi kumelwe niligubhele uJehova ezizukulwaneni zenu; uyakuwugcina kuze kube phakade njengesimiso.

¹⁵ Izinsuku eziyisikhombisa uyakudla isinkwa esingenamvubelo; ngosuku lokuqala niyakukhipha imvubelo ezindlini zenu; ngoba wonke odla isinkwa esivutshelweyo kusukela osukwini lokuqala kuze kube lusuku lwesikhombisa, lowomphefumulo uzaqunywa kwaIsrayeli.

¹⁶ Ngosuku lokuqala kumelwe kube nomhlangano ongcwele, futhi ngosuku lwesikhombisa kumelwe nibe nomhlangano ongcwele; akunamsebenzi ongenziwa ngazo, kuphela lokho yilowo nalowo angakudla, okungenziwa yinina kuphela.

¹⁷ Kumelwe uwugcine umkhosi wesinkwa esingenamvubelo; ngoba ngalona lolosuku ngikhiphile amabutho akho elizweni leGibhithe; ngalokho anogcina lolu suku ezizukulwaneni zenu kube yisimiso esiphakade.

¹⁸ Ngenyanga yokuqala ngosuku lweshumi nane lwenyanga kusihlwa niyakudla isinkwa esingenamvubelo kuze kube lusuku lwamashumi amabili nanye lwenyanga kusihlwa.

¹⁹ Izinsuku eziyisikhombisa akuyikutholwa mvubelo ezindlini zenu; ngokuba yilowo nalowo odla okuvutshelweyo uyakunqunywa ebandleni lika-Israyeli, noma engowezizwe noma engowokuzalwa ezweni.

²⁰ Ungadli okuvutshelweyo; kuzo zonke izindawo zenu zokuhlala niyakudla isinkwa esingenamvubelo.

²¹ UMose wabiza onke amadoda amadala akwa-Israyeli, wathi kuwo: “Phumani nizithathele iwundlu ngokwezizukulwane zenu, nilihlabe iphasika.

²² Kumelwe nithathe isixha sehisopi nisicwilise egazini elisesitsheni, nishaye umbundu ongenhla nezinsika zombili zezinhlangothi ngegazi elisesitsheni; futhi kakuyikuphuma muntu emnyango wendlu yakhe kuze kuse.

²³ Ngokuba uJehova uyakudabula ukuba anqobe abaseGibithe; uma ebona igazi embundwini ongaphezulu nasezinsikeni zombili zomnyango, uJehova uyakudlula ngasemnyango, angamvumeli umchithi ukuba angene ezindlini zenu ukuba anihlule.

²⁴ Kumelwe niyigcine le ndaba ibe yisimiso sakho nakubantwana bakho kuze kube nini nanini.

²⁵ “Nxa ningena ezweni uJehova aya kuninika lona njengokuthembisa kwakhe, niyakugcina le nkonzo.

²⁶ Kuyakuthi lapho abantwana benu bethi kini: Ithini le nkonzo na?

²⁷ nithi: Lona ungumhlatshelo wephasika likaJehova owadlula ngasezindlini zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli eGibithe lapho enqoba abaseGibithe, esindisa izindlu zethu. Abantu bagebisa amakhanda abo, bakhuleka.

²⁸ Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli basuka, benza njengalokho uJehova ebayalile oMose no-Aroni, benze njalo-ke.

²⁹ Futhi kwenzeka ukuthi phakathi kwamabili iNkosi yashaya wonke amazibulo ezweni laseGibhithe, kusukela kulo izibulo likaFaro owayehlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, kuya kwizibulo lesiboshwa esasisetilongweni; nawo onke amazibulo ezinkomo.

³⁰ UFaro wavuka ebusuku, yena nazo zonke izinceku zakhe namaGibhithe onke; kwaba khona ukukhala okukhulu eGibithe; ngoba kwakungekho ndlu lapho okwakungekho ofileyo khona.

³¹ Wababiza oMose no-Aroni ebusuku, wathi: “Sukani niphume phakathi kwabantu bami, nina nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; nihambe niyokhonza uJehova njengokusho kwenu.

³² Thathani izimvu zenu nezinkomo zenu, njengokusho kwenu, nihambe; futhi ungibusise nami.

³³ AbaseGibithe babancenga abantu ukuba babakhiphe ngokushesha ezweni; ngoba bathi: Sesifile sonke.

³⁴ Abantu basebethatha inhlama yabo ingakavutshelwa, lezitsha zabo zenhlama zabotshwa emahlombe abo ezingutsheni zabo.

³⁵ Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli benza njengezwi likaMose; baboleka kwabaseGibithe izinto zesiliva nezinto zegolide nezingubo.

³⁶ UJehova wabapha abantu umusa emehlweni abaseGibithe, babapha lokho abakucelayo. Futhi baphanga abaseGibhithe.

³⁷ Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli basuka eRamsesi baya eSukoti, kungathi izinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha ezihamba ngezinyawo, amadoda ngaphandle kwabantwana.

³⁸ Nexuku eliyingxubevange lenyuka nabo; nemfuyo nezinkomo, yebo, izinkomo eziningi.

³⁹ Babhaka amaqebelengwane angenamvubelo ngenhlama abayikhipha eGibithe, ngokuba yayingavutshelwe; ngoba baxotshwa eGibhithe, kabalibalanga, njalo kabalungiselelanga ukudla.

⁴⁰ Ukuhlala kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ababehlala eGibithe kwakuyiminyaka engamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu.

⁴¹ Kwathi ekupheleni kweminyaka engamakhulu amane lamatshumi amathathu, ngalona lolosuku, wonke amabutho eNkosi aphuma elizweni leGibhithe.

⁴² Kuwubusuku okumelwe bugcinelwe uJehova, ngokuba wabakhipha ezweni laseGibithe; kungubusuku bukaJehova okumelwe bugcinwe kubo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ezizukulwaneni zabo.

⁴³ INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi lakuAroni: Nanku umlayo wephasika: owezizwe kangalidli.

⁴⁴ Kodwa inceku yomuntu wonke ethengwa ngemali, uba uyisoka, izakudla kuyo.

⁴⁵ Umfokazi nesisebenzi sasemini angakudli.

⁴⁶ Kumelwe kudlelwe endlini eyodwa; akumelwe nikhiphe lutho lwenyama endlini; ungaphuli thambo layo.

⁴⁷ Yonke inhlangano ka-Israyeli kumelwe iwugcine.

⁴⁸ “ ‘Uma umfokazi egogobele kini, egcina iphasika kuJehova, mabasokwe bonke abesilisa bakhe, asondele aligcine; uyakuba njengowokuzalwa ezweni, ngokuba akuyikudla ongasokile kulo.

⁴⁹ Kumelwe kube munye umthetho kowokuzalwa ekhaya nakumfokazi ogogobele phakathi kwenu.

⁵⁰ Benza kanjalo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli; njengalokho uJehova ebayalile oMose no-Aroni, benze njalo-ke.

⁵¹ Kwathi ngalona lolo suku uJehova ekhipha abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe ngamabandla abo.
