1. Ekulabeni kwenu ilizwe ngamaqashiso, ukuba libe lilifa, nomrhumela uYehova umrhumo oyinto engcwele kulo ilizwe elo: ubude bube ngamashumi omabini anamahlanu amawaka eengcongolo,* ububanzi bube lishumi lamawaka. Wòba ngcwele emdeni wawo wonke ngeenxa zonke.
2. Kuwo apha oba ngawasengcweleni amakhulu amahlanu ubude, ngamakhulu amahlanu obubanzi, ube mbombo-né ngeenxa zonke, ube ziikubhite* ezimashumi mahlanu zephandle elingeenxa zonke kuwo.
3. Kuyo loo ndawo ilinganisiweyo, wòlinganisa ubude obungamashumi omabini anamahlanu amawaka, nobubanzi obulishumi lamawaka; ibe khona ingcwele le, ingcwele kangcwele.
4. Yona yoba yinto engcwele kulo ilizwe elo; ilungè nababingeleli, abalungiseleli bengcwele, abasondela ukuba balungiselele kuYehova; ibe yindawo yezindlu zabo, indawo engcwele ilunge nengcwele.
5. Amashumi amabini anamahlanu amawaka obude, neli shumi lamawaka obubanzi, alunge nabaLevi, abalungiseleli bendlu; oba yinzuzo yabo eyimizi yokuba bahlale.
6. Okomzi koba ngamawaka amahlanu obubanzi, anamashumi amabini anamahlanu amawaka obude, elungelelene nomrhumo ongcwele; ibe ngawendlu yonke kaSirayeli.
7. Isikhulu nosinika ngapha nangapha komrhumo ongcwele, nakokomzi phambi komrhumo ongcwele, naphambi kokomzi ngecala lasentshonalanga, nise entshonalanga, nangecala lasempumalanga, nise empumalanga; ubude bulungelelane nesinye isahlulo sezizwe, buthabathele emdeni wasentshonalanga, buse emdeni wasempumalanga.
8. Loba lilizwe laso, libe yinzuzo kuso kwaSirayeli; izikhulu zam zingabuyi zibe sabaxinzelela phantsi abantu bam; ke ilizwe zilinike indlu kaSirayeli ngokwezizwe zayo.
9. Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yan elani, nina zikhulu zakwaSirayeli; yekani ukugonyamela nokubhuqa, nenzè okusesikweni nobulungisa; yekani ukubagxotha abantu bam emafeni abo; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
10. Yibani nesikali* sobulungisa, ne-efa* yobulungisa, nebhate* yobulungisa.
11. Iefa nebhate yoba mlinganiso mnye, ibhate ikhongozele isahlulo seshumi sehomere,* ne-efa isahlulo seshumi sehomere, sibe ngokwehomere isilinganiselo sayo.
