¹ Uma labantfu babona kutsi Mosi uphutile kwehlela phansi entsabeni, base bahlanganyela kanye na Aroni batsi kuye, ''kota, sentele tithico letitokuba bhambi kwetfu. Ngaloku Mosi, lendvodza lesikhiphile eveni lase Gibhithe, asati kutsi kwentekeni kuye.'' ² Aroni watsi kubo, ''Khiphani onkhe lama golide lasetindlebeni tebafati benu, kanye nase tindlebeni temadvodzana nemadvodzakati enu, bese niwaletsa kimi.'' ³ Bonkhe labantfu bakhumula lamagolide lasetindlebeni tabo base batiletsa ku Aroni. ⁴ Walemukela leligolide etandleni tabo wase uyalibumba ngesithico lesakhiwe sifanana nelitfole. Base batsi, ''Laba bo Nkulunkulu benu, Israel, labaniletse eveni lase Gibhithe.'' ⁵ Uma Aroni akubona loko, wakha lilati ngaphambi kwalelitfole wase wenta simemetelo; wase utsi, '' Kusasa kutoba nemucimbi kuhlonipha ⁶ Simakadze.'' Ngako bantfu basheshe bavuka ekuseni elangeni lelilandzelako base banikela ngemunikelo loshile baletsa nemunikelo webungani. Bahlala phansi badla banatsa base bavuka bajabule lokwecile emcimbini lobomukhulu. ⁷ Simakadze wakhuluma ku Mosi watsi, ''Hamba kakhulu, uye ku bantfu bakho, labo lobakhiphe eveni lase Gibhithe, sebatentela tintfo letingaka faneli. ⁸ Basheshe bayekela loko lengiba tjele kona kutsi bakwente. Babata sithico lesingumfanekiso welitfole base bayamkhonta phindze bakhotsama kuso. Base batsi , ' Laba bo Nkulunkulu baka Israel, labasikhiphe endzaweni yase Gibhithe.''' ⁹ Simakadze watsi ku Mosi, ''Ngibabonile labantfu. Buka, babantfu labalukhuni. ¹⁰ Kukunyalo nje, ungazami kungimisa. Lulakalwami lutovutse kubo, ngako ngitoba bulala. Wena ke ngitokwenta ube sive lesikhulu. ¹¹ ''Kodvwa mosi wazama kumisa Simakadze Nkulunkulu wakhe.

Jikisa lulaka lwakho lolushisako bese utsambisa sijeziso kubantfu bakho. ¹³ Khumbulani Abrahama na Isaka nema Israel, tisebenti tami lenenta ngabo titsembiso tenu natsi kubo, 'Ngitowenta titukulwane tenu tibe tinengi njenge tinkhanyeti letise zulwini, ngtophindze ngininike titukulwane tayoyonkhe lendzawo lesikhulume ngayo. Itokuba yabo phakadze.''' ¹⁴ Wase Simakadze wehlisa lesijeziso lebekatsite utosenta kubantfu bakhe. ¹⁵ Mosi wajika wabuyela emuva entsabeni, aphetse tincebelengwane letimbili tesivumelwano letisesandleni sakhe. Letincebelengwane betibhalwe kuletinhlangotsi totimbili, ngembili nange muva. ¹⁶ Letincebelengwane tatingumsebenti wa Nkulunkulu, tatibhalwe nangembhalo wa Nkulunkulu, kubhalwe kuletincebelegwane. ¹⁷ Watsi kube Joshuwa eve lomsindvo we bantfu bamemeta, watsi ku Mosi, ''Kunemsindvo we compathi lakulelwe khona. ¹⁸ Kodvwa Mosi watsi, ''Akusiyo yini umusindvo wenjabulo, noma umsindvo webantfu labancotjiwe, kodvwa ngumsindvo wekuhlabelela lelengiwuvako.'' ¹⁹ Uma Mose afika lebekulelwe khona, wabona lelitfole nebantfu bajayiva. Watfukutsela kakhulu. Walahla pansi letincetu tematje ekubhalela lebetisesandleni sakhe watijika ekucaleni kwentsaba. ²⁰ Watsatsa lelitfole lebeselakhiwe ngulabantfu , walishisa, walisila labangumlotsa, walitsela emantini wase uyabanatsisa labantfu baka Israyeli. ²¹ Wase Mosi utsi ku Aroni, ''Yini labantfu labayentile kuwe, loko lokukwente kutsi uletse loluhlobo lwesono lesikhulu kubo?'' ²² Aroni watsi, ''Ungalwenti lulakalwakho lushise kakhulu, nkhosi yami. Wena uyabati labantfu, kutsi batimisele ekwenteni lokubi. ²³ Batse kimi, 'Sentele lokungu Nkulunkulu lokutowuhamba embikwetfu. Ngaloko Mosi, lendvodza leyasikhipha eveni lase Gibhithe, asati kutsi kwentekeni kuye. ' ²⁴ Manje ngatsi kubo, ' Nomangabe ngubani loneligolide, akalikhumule.' Base banginiketa lama golide ngase ngiwajika emlilweni kwase kuphuma nalelitfole.'' ²⁵ Mose wabona kutsi labantfu abasakhuteki (Aroni ubente bangasakhuteki, wenta titsa tabo tibaphukute). ²⁶ Wase Mose wema ekungeneni kwalabebalele khona watsi, ''Loyo losase luhlangotsini lwa Simakadze, akete kimi. '' Onkhe ema levi eta ahlanganyela kuye. ²⁷ Watsi kubo, ''Simakadze, Nkulunkulu wema Israyeli, utsi: 'Nguloyo naloyo aka bophele inkemba yakhe eceleni kwakhe bese ubuyela emuva angenele umyango ngemnyango kuyoyonkhe le kambu, abulale bafowabo, nebangani, na bomakhelwane.''' ²⁸ Lama Levi enta loko Mosi abatjelekona. Kulelolanga tinkhulungwane letintsatfu tebantfu tafa. ²⁹ Mose watsi kulama Levi, ''Senibekelwe kuba tisebenti ta Simakadze lomuhla, ngamunye ngamunye wenu utotsatselwa tinyatselo nge ndvodzana yakhe kanye nemfowabo, khona Simakadze atoninika tibusiso takhe lomuhla. '' ³⁰ Elangeni lelilandzelako Mose watsi kulabantfu, '' Nente sono lesikhulu. Nyalo ngtonyuka ngiye ku Simakadze. Kungenteka ngingenta kutsi nihlanteke etonweni tenu. ³¹ ''Mose wabuyela ku Simakadze watsi , ''Awu, labantfu sebente tono letiningi base batentela tithico seligolide. ³² Kepha nyalo, ngicela ucolele tono tabo; kodvwa uma ungakwenti, ngicishe mine ungikhiphele ngaphandle kulencwadzi lotabe uyibhalile.'' ³³ Simakadze watsi ku Mose, ''Noma ngabe ngubani lowonile ngami, loyo muntfu ngtomukhiphela ngaphanhle encwandzini yami. ³⁴ Ngako ke hamba uhole labantfu kulendzawo lesikhulume ngayo. Buka, tingelozi tami titohamba bhambikwako. Kepha ngalelilanga lengitoba vivinya ngalo, ngtoba vivinyela tono tabo.'' ³⁵ Simakadze watfumela sifo kulabantfu ngobe bebente lelitfole, leli lebelentiwe ngu Aroni.
