Isahluko 40

Wathetha uYehova kuMoses wathi, Ngenyanga yokuqala, ngolokuqala usuku enyangeni leyo,
2 uze uwumise umnquba wentente yokuhlangana; ubeke khona ityeya yesingqino,
3 uyisithelise ityeya ngomkhusane;
4 ungenise itafile, uzicwangcise izinto zayo ezicwangciswayo; ungenise isiphatho sezibane, uzimise izibane zaso;
5 usimise isibingelelo segolide sokuqhumisela phambi kwetyeya yesingqino, usixhome isisitheliso somnyango emnqubeni;
6 usimise isibingelelo sedini elinyukayo phambi komnyango womnquba wentente yokuhlangana;
7 ulumise uhehema lwesitya sokuhlambela phakathi kwentente yokuhlangana nesibingelelo, ugalele amanzi kulo.
8 Uze uyimise intendelezo ijikeleze, usixhome isisitheliso sesango lentendelezo.
9 Uze uthabathe ioli yokuthambisa, uthambise umnquba neento zonke ezikuwo, uwungcwalise nempahla yawo yonke, ube yingcwele;
10 uthambise isibingelelo sedini elinyukayo, nempahla yaso yonke, usingcwalise isibingelelo, sibe sisibingelelo esiyingcwele kangcwele;
11 uthambise uhehema lwesitya sokuhlambela, noseko lwalo, ulungcwalise.
12 Uze usondeze uAron noonyana bakhe emnyango wentente yokuhlangana, ubahlambe ngamanzi;
13 umnxibe uAron izambatho ezingcwele, umthambise, umngcwalise, ukuze abe ngumbingeleli kum.
14 Wosondeza oonyana bakhe, ubanxibe iingubo zangaphantsi;
15 ubathambise njengoko wamthambisayo uyise, ukuze babe ngababingeleli kum; kuthi ukuthanjiswa kwabo kube kokobubingeleli obungunaphakade kubo, kwizizukulwana zabo.
16 Wenza ke uMoses; njengako konke uYehova abemwisele umthetho ngako, wenjenjalo.
17 Kwathi, ngenyanga yokuqala ngomnyaka wesibini, ngolokuqala enyangeni leyo, wamiswa umnquba.
18 Wawumisa ke uMoses umnquba, wazibeka iziseko zawo, wazimisa iiplanga zawo, wayifaka imivalo yawo, wazimisa iintsika zawo.
19 Wayaneka intente phezu komnquba, wabeka isigubungelo sentente phezu kwayo phezulu, njengoko uYehova wamwisela umthetho uMoses.
20 Wasithabatha isingqino, wasibeka etyeyeni, wazifaka izibonda etyeyeni, wasibeka isihlalo sokucamagusha phezu kwetyeya phezulu.
21 Wayingenisa ityeya emnqubeni, wawuxhoma umkhusane osithelisayo, wayisithelisa ityeya yesingqino, njengoko uYehova wamwisela umthetho uMoses.
22 Wayibeka itafile ententeni yokuhlangana, ngecala lomnquba elingasentla, nganeno komkhusane;
23 wacwangcisa phezu kwayo ukucwangciswa kwezonka phambi koYehova, njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses.
24 Wasimisa isiphatho sezibane ententeni yokuhlangana, sakhangelana netafile ngecala lomnquba elingasezantsi;
25 wazimisa izibane phambi koYehova, njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses.
26 Wasibeka isibingelelo segolide ententeni yokuhlangana, phambi komkhusane.
27 Waqhumisela phezu kwaso ngesiqhumiso esimnandi, njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses.
28 Wasixhoma isisitheliso somnyango emnqubeni.
29 Wasibeka isibingelelo sedini elinyukayo emnyango womnquba wentente yokuhlangana; wanyusa kuso idini elinyukayo, nomnikelo wokudla, njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses.
30 Walubeka uhehema lwesitya sokuhlambela phakathi kwentente yokuhlangana nesibingelelo eso, wagalela amanzi okuhlamba kulo.
31 Bazihlamba ooMoses noAron noonyana bakhe izandla zabo neenyawo zabo khona.
32 Ekungeneni kwabo ententeni yokuhlangana, nasekusondeleni kwabo esibingelelweni, bahlamba, njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses.
33 Wayimisa intendelezo ejikeleza umnquba lo nesibingelelo esi, wasixhoma isisitheliso sesango lentendelezo. Wawugqiba ke uMoses umsebenzi.
34 Ilifu layigubungela intente yokuhlangana, ubuqaqawuli bukaYehova bawuzalisa umnquba.
35 UMoses akaba nakungena ententeni yokuhlangana, ngokuba ilifu lahlala phezu kwayo, ubuqaqawuli bukaYehova bawuzalisa umnquba.
36 Belisithi lakunyuswa lisuswe ilifu emnqubeni, banduluke oonyana bakaSirayeli, benjenjalo ekundulukeni kwabo konke.
37 Ke xa ilifu belingekanyuswa, bebenganduluki kude kube yimini yokunyuswa kwalo;
38 kuba ilifu likaYehova beliba phezu komnquba emini, umlilo ube phezu kwawo ebusuku, phambi kwendlu yonke kaSirayeli, ekundulukeni kwabo konke.
