¹ USomnini wakhuluma noMosi phezu kwentaba yeSinayi wathi

² akakhulume nama-Israyeli athi kiwo: “Lokha naningena enarheni engizoninikela yona, inarha leyo kufuze iphumule ukuphumula kweSabatha elahlukaniselwe uSomnini.

³ Iminyaka emithandathu nizakutjala amasimenu, nihlunge isidiribe senu benikhe iinthelo zaso.

⁵ Ningavuni amakhakhazela wokulinyiweko namadiribe esidiribeni senu esingakahlungwa. Kuzakuba mnyaka wokuphumula okukhethekileko kwenarha.

⁶ Okuzimilela ngomnyaka weSabatha kudleleni khonapho, nina, amakhoboka namakhobokakazenu, iinsebenzi kanye neenthekeli ezigogobele phakathi kwenu.

⁷ Godu kuzakuba kukudla kwefuywenu kanye neenlwana zommango ezisenarhenenu.”

Umnyaka wokubuyisela

⁸ “Zibaleleni iminyaka elikhomba yamaSabatha okutjho iminyaka elikhomba ebuyelelwe kalikhomba, kube minyaka ematjhumi amane nethoba.

⁹ Nje-ke kuzakuthi lokha inyanga yekhomba nayinamalanga alitjhumi nivuthele ipalapala izwakale eendaweni zoke. Zwakalisani ipalapala enarhenenu yoke ngelanga letethelelo.

¹⁰ Nihloniphe umnyaka wamatjhumi amahlanu welimo, niwucwengise ngokumemezela ukusulwa kwesikolodo enarheni yoke kizo zoke izakhamuzi. Kuzakuba mnyaka wokubuyisela kini, lapha omunye nomunye wenu azakutjhaphuluka khona abuyele elifeni lakhe nemndeninakhe.

¹¹ Umnyaka wamatjhumi amahlanu uzakuba mnyaka wokubuyisela kini, okumnyaka lapha ningeze natjala, navuna amakhakhazela namkha isidiribe esidiribeni senu esingakahlungwa.

¹² Njengombana kumnyaka wokubuyisela nje, kufuze ube ngocwengileko kini. Nizakudla kwaphela okuzimilela emasimini.

¹³ “Emnyakeni wokubuyisela lowo, omunye nomunye wenu akabuyele endaweni yelifa lakhe.

¹⁴ Lokha nanisiselana nabantu bekhenu ngendawo yelifa, ningadlelezelani.

¹⁵ Inani lokusisa lihloswa sibalo seminyaka ngemva komnyaka wokubuyisela, okutjho bona inani lesivuno seminyaka eseleko ngaphambi komnyaka wokubuyisela ngilo elihlosa inani lokusisa.

¹⁶ Ubunengi beminyaka eseleko buzakutjho ukuphakama kwenani lokusisa, kuthi ubuncani beminyaka eseleko kube kukwehla kwenani ngombana kuhlekuhle kusiselwana isivuno kwaphela.

¹⁷ Ngokwesaba uZimakho ungadlelezeli umuntu wekhenu ngombana mina nginguSomnini uZimenu.

¹⁸ “Nanenza iimiso zami, nilonde imithethwami beniyenze, nizakuphila niphephile enarheni.

¹⁹ Inarha izakuthela iinthelo zayo, nidle nisuthe begodu nizakuhlala kiyo niphephile.

²⁰ Mhlambe ningazibuza nithi, ‘Alo, ngomnyaka wekhomba sizokudlani ngombana singeze satjala namkha sivune?’

²¹ Lalelani-ke, ngomnyaka wesithandathu ngizonehlisela isibusiso sami ukuze isivuno somnyaka lowo sibambelele iminyaka emithathu.

²² Nanitjalako ngomnyaka wobunane, nizabe nisalokhu nidla isivuno esidala bekube mnyaka wethoba. Iye, nizakudla isivuno esidala bekube sikhathi sesivuno somnyaka wethoba.

²³ Inarha ayingathengiswa, ayisiswe kwaphela ngombana ingeyami, nina niziinkhonzi neenthekeli kimi.

²⁴ Ilungelo lokuhlenga inarha engininikele yona bona ibe lilifa lenu alihlonitjhwe.”

Ukuphathwa komuntu okhwahlileko ngaphambi komnyaka wokubuyisela

²⁵ “Nangabe umfowenu uyakhwahla bese usisa ingcenye yamasimakhe, kuzakufanela bona umhlengi oseduze naye aye kiloyo okusiswe kuye afese ahlenge isimu yomfowabo leyo.

²⁶ Nakube umfo loyo akanaye ongamhlengela yona, kodwana yena athome ukuhluma bese uba nalokho angayihlenga ngakho isimu leyo,

²⁷ akabale inani leminyaka yamasiso bese ukhokha iminyaka eseleko ngaphambi komnyaka wokubuyisela kiloyo amsisiseleko. Nje-ke uzabese ubuyisa ubunikazi belifa lakhe.

²⁸ Kodwana nangabe akahlumi ukuze akghone ukuzihlengela isimu leyo, izakuhlala ezandleni zaloyo okusiswe kuye bekube mnyaka wokubuyisela. Ubunikazi besimu leyo abubuyiswe bese umuntu loyo ubuyela elifeni lakhe ngomnyaka wokubuyisela.

²⁹ “Nangabe umuntu usisa indlwakhe engedorobheni elizombelezwe ngomthangala, unesikhathi somnyaka woke sokobana ayihlenge ngemva kokuyithengisa kwakhe. Ilungelo lokuyihlenga lizakuba mnyaka munye.

³⁰ Nangayihlengiko bekuphele umnyaka woke swana, khona-ke indlu leyo izakuba lilifa lomthengi isiphelani, iinzukulwana ngeenzukulwana. Akukameli ibuyiselwe kumthengisi ngomnyaka wokubuyisela.

³¹ Kodwana izindlu ezisemizini engakazombelezwa ngomthangala zingathathwa njengegcenye yamasimu wendawo leyo. Zona kunelungelo lokuzihlenga begodu zingatjhatjhululwa ngomnyaka wokubuyisela.

³² “AmaLevi wona anelungelo lokuhlenga izindlu ezisemadorobhenawo ngesikhathi soke.

³³ Nangabe kunomLevi ongahlengi indlu esiswe edorobheni lelifa lawo, kufuze ibuyiswe ngomnyaka wokubuyisela. Lokhu kungebanga lokobana izindlu ezisemadorobheni wamaLevi zililifa lawo kwa-Israyeli.

³⁴ Amadlelo asemadorobhenawo akukafuzi asisiswe ngombana alilifa lawo isiphelani.

³⁵ “Nangabe umfowenu uyakhwahla bese uhluleka ukuzondla, msize njengombana bewungasiza isikhonzi nesithekeli ukuze akwazi ukuphila nawe.

³⁶ Kungabi khona inzalo ombiza yona nawumboleka imali namkha nayibuyisako. Ngokwesaba uZimakho msize ukuze akwazi ukuphila nawe.

³⁷ Ungambizi inzalo lokha nawumboleka imali begodu ungafuni ukuzuza nawumthengisela ukudla.

³⁸ NginguSomnini uZimenu owanikhupha enarheni yeGibhide bona ngininikele inarha yeKanana ukuze ngibe nguZimu kini.

³⁹ “Nangabe umfowenu uyakhwahla bese uzithengisa kuwe, ungamphathi njengekhoboka.

⁴⁰ Kufuze umphathe njengomunye weensebenzi namkha weenthekeli ezihlala nawe. Akusebenzele bekube mnyaka wokubuyisela,

⁴¹ nje-ke angakhamba, yena nabantwabakhe, abuyele kebekhabo enarheni yaboyisemkhulu.

⁴² Ama-Israyeli aziinceku zami engazenyula enarheni yeGibhide, ngalokho akukafuzi athengiswe njengamakhoboka.

⁴³ Ngokwesaba uZimakho ungaphathi umIsrayeli ngokumkhahlameza.

⁴⁴ Nanifuna amakhoboka namakhobokakazi athengeni ezizweni ezinye,

⁴⁵ godu ningawathenga phakathi kwabaphalali abakhonze kini kanye nemindeninabo ebelethelwa enarhenenu nehlala nani. Wona-ke alilifa lenu

⁴⁶ begodu ningawatjhiyela abantwabenu bona abe lilifa labo. Akanisebenzele nini nanini. Kodwana ama-Israyeli wona okubafowenu angakhahlamezani.

⁴⁷ “Nangabe umfowenu uyakhwahla bese azithengise esikhonzini namkha kumphalali onjingileko nanyana eenzukulwaneni zabo

⁴⁸ usese nelungelo lokobana ahlengwe emva kokuzithengisa kwakhe. Kufuze ahlengwe ngomunye wabafowabo:

⁴⁹ Umfowabo kayise, indodana yomfowabo kayise namkha omunye womndeni wekhabo angamhlenga. Kanti-ke nangabe kuyenzeka ahlume angazihlenga yena ngekwakhe.

⁵⁰ Uzakubonisana naloyo omthengileko, kubalwe ukusukela ngomnyaka azithengisa ngawo bekube mnyaka wokubuyisela: Inani lokuhlengwa kwakhe lizakuya ngesibalo seminyaka eseleko ekusebenzeni kwakhe lapho. Inanelo libe njengelesisebenzi.

⁵¹ Nangabe kusasele iminyaka eminengi, kufuze kuthi emalini athengwe ngayo abuyise ingcenye yayo ngokweminyaka eseleko leyo njengesihlengo sakhe.

⁵² Kodwana nakusele iminyaka embalwa ngaphambi komnyaka wokubuyisela kufuze kutjhejwe lokho: Isihlengo asibe njengokweminyaka eseleko.

⁵³ Emnikazinakhe akabe njengomqatjhwa womnyaka ngomnyaka; niqalisise bona umthengi lo akamkhahlamezi na.

⁵⁴ Nangabe akukghoneki bona ahlengeke ngeendlelezo, ngomnyaka wokubuyisela kufuze atjhaphuluke nabantwabakhe

⁵⁵ ngombana kimi ama-Israyeli aziinceku. Iye, aziinceku zami engazenyula enarheni yeGibhide. NginguSomnini uZimenu.”
