Hezekeli 44 Izimfuneko zendlu engcwele yethempeli

¹ Wayesengibuyisela ngasesangweni lendlu engcwele elingaphandle elibheke ngasempumalanga; lase livaliwe.

² Wayesethi uJehova kimi; Leli sango kufanele livalwe, akufanele livulwe, futhi akekho ongangena ngalo; ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ungenile ngalo, ngalokho lizovalwa.

³ Lokhu kungokwesikhulu; isikhulu, kumelwe sihlale kulo ukuba sidle isinkwa phambi kukaJehova; kumelwe angene ngompheme walelo sango futhi aphume ngendlela yakhe.

⁴ Wayesengilethela indlela evela eSangweni Lasenyakatho phambi kwendlu; ngabona, bheka, inkazimulo kaJehova yagcwalisa indlu kaJehova, ngawa ngobuso.

⁵ UJehova wayesethi kimi: “Ndodana yomuntu, lalela, ubone ngamehlo akho, uzwe ngezindlebe zakho konke engikusho kuwe ngazo zonke izimiso zendlu kaJehova nemithetho yayo yonke; niqaphele umnyango wendlu, nazo zonke izindlela zokuphuma endlini engcwele.

⁶ Kumelwe uthi kwabahlubukayo kuyo indlu ka-Israyeli, ‘Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova; Wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, akwanele kini zonke izinengiso zenu.

⁷ Ngokuba ningenise abezizweni endlini yami engcwele, abangasokile ngenhliziyo, abangasokile enyameni, ukuba babe sendlini yami engcwele, bayingcolise, indlu yami, uma ninikela ngesinkwa sami, namanoni, negazi, bese ningiphule. Isivumelwano ngenxa yazo zonke izinengiso zakho.

⁸ Aniyigcinanga inkonzo yezinto zami ezingcwele, kepha nanikela inkonzo yami endlini yami engcwele.

⁹ Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Akukho owezizwe ongasokile ngenhliziyo nongasokile ngenyama oyakungena endlini yami engcwele, nakunoma yimuphi owezizwe ophakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

¹⁰ NamaLevi asuka kude nami ekudukeni kuka-Israyeli, aduka kimi, alandela izithombe zawo; futhi bayothwala ububi babo.

¹¹ Kepha bayakuba yizinceku endlini yami engcwele, balinde amasango endlu, bakhonze indlu; kumelwe bahlabe umnikelo wokushiswa nesisulu sabantu, futhi kumelwe bame phambi kwabo ukuba babakhonze.

¹² Ngoba babakhonza phambi kwezithombe zabo, benza indlu kaIsrayeli yawela ebubini; ngalokho ngiphakamisele isandla sami kubo, isho iNkosi uJehova, futhi bayothwala ububi babo.

¹³ Abanakusondela kimi ukuba bangenzele inkonzo yompristi, noma beze kunoma iyiphi yezinto zami ezingcwele endaweni eNgcwelengcwele; kodwa kumelwe bathwale ihlazo labo nezinengiso zabo abazenzile.

¹⁴ Kodwa ngiyobamisa ukuba babe abaqaphi benkonzo yendlu kuwo wonke umsebenzi wayo wenkonzo nakho konke okumelwe kwenziwe kuyo.

¹⁵ Kodwa abapristi bamaLevi, amadodana kaSadoki, ababegcina inkonzo yendlu yami engcwele lapho abantwana bakwa-Israyeli beduka besuka kimi, kumelwe basondele kimi ukuze bangikhonze, futhi kumelwe beme phambi kwami ukuze banginike amanoni namanoni. Igazi, isho iNkosi uJehova.

¹⁶ Kumelwe bangene endlini yami engcwele, futhi kumelwe basondele etafuleni lami ukuze bangikhonze, futhi kumelwe bagcine inkonzo yami.

¹⁷ Lapho bengena emasangweni egceke elingaphakathi, bayakwembatha ilineni; uboya bezimvu abuyikuba phezu kwabo, lapho bekhonza emasangweni egceke elingaphakathi nangaphakathi.

¹⁸ Kumelwe babe namabhande elineni emakhanda abo namabhulukwe elineni okhalweni; bangase bangabhinci noma yini ebangela umjuluko.

¹⁹ Lapho bephumela egcekeni elingaphandle, egcekeni elingaphandle kubantu, kumelwe bakhumule izingubo zabo ababekhonza benazo, bazibeke phansi emakamelweni angcwele, bagqoke ezinye izingubo; futhi ngeke bangcwelise abantu ngezingubo zabo.

²⁰ Abayikuphuca amakhanda abo, bangavumeli izihluthu zabo zibe zide; bayolinganisa amakhanda abo kuphela.

²¹ Futhi akukho mpristi ongaphuza iwayini lapho bengena egcekeni elingaphakathi.

²² Bangathathi umfelokazi noma olahliwe ngenxa yabafazi bawo, kodwa kumelwe bathathele amantombazane ohlwini lozalo lwendlu ka-Israyeli noma umfelokazi owayenompristi ngaphambili.

²³ Kumelwe bafundise abantu bami umehluko phakathi kokungcwele nokungangcwele futhi babenze bahlukanise phakathi kokungcolile nokuhlanzekile.

²⁴ Bephikisana bayakuma ekwahluleleni; bayakulahlulela njengezimiso zami; futhi kumelwe bagcine imithetho yami nezimiso zami kuwo wonke amabandla ami; bayakungcwelisa amasabatha ami.

²⁵ Futhi bangasondeli kofileyo ukuba bamngcolise; kodwa ngenxa kayise noma unina noma indodana noma indodakazi, umfowabo noma udadewabo ababengenandoda bangazingcolisa.

²⁶ Ngemva kokuba esehlanziwe, kumelwe ambalele izinsuku eziyisikhombisa.

²⁷ Ngosuku lapho engena endlini engcwele egcekeni elingaphakathi ukukhonza endlini engcwele, kumelwe anikele umnikelo wakhe wesono, isho iNkosi uJehova.

²⁸ Kumelwe kube yifa labo: Mina ngiyifa labo; aniyikubanika mpahla kwa-Israyeli; Mina ngiyimpahla yabo.

²⁹ Kumelwe badle umnikelo womlilo nomnikelo wesono nomnikelo wecala; futhi konke okungcwelisiwe kwa-Israyeli kuyakuba ngokwakho.

³⁰ Okokuqala kwakho konke okokuqala kwakho konke nayo yonke iminikelo eyenziwa ngomlilo yakho konke kuzo zonke izinhlobo zeminikelo yenu eyenziwa ngomlilo kuyakuba ngokompristi; Ingqalo yenhlama yenu niyakunika umpristi, ukuze aphumule isibusiso endlini yakho.

³¹ Abapristi abanakuyidla into efileyo noma edweshuliwe yodwa, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi izinyoni noma isilwane.
