¹ Simakadze watsi kuMose, ''Sika timbili tincetu telitje njenga letincetu takucala. Ngitawubhala tikwaletincetu emavi labekabhalwe kuletincetu takucala, letincetu tematje lowatephula. ² Ubolunga ekuseni bese wenyuka intsaba yeSinai, bese uyativeta kimi ngetulu kwalentsaba. ³ Kute lekufanele enyuke nawe. Ungavumeli muntfu kutsi abonakale nomangangukuphi kwalentsaba. Kute imihlambi noma tinkhomo lekumele tidle embikwalentsaba.'' ⁴ Wase Mose usika tincetu letimbili telitje lebetifanana naletakucala, wase uyavuka ekuseni wenyuka instaba yeSinayi, njengoba Simakadze amyaleta. Mose waphasta letincetu telitje ngesandla. ⁵ Simakadze wehla nelifu wase uma naMose, wakhuluma ligama ''Simakadze'' ⁶ Simakadze wendlula embikwakhe wakhuluma, ''Simakadze, Simakadze, Nkulukulu wemusa nesihawu, longasheshi kukwata, lohlala anelutsandvo nemusa ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi. ⁷ logcina lutsadvo netinkhulungwane, locolela timphambuko, emacala, netono. Kepha angeke amhlobise lonelicala. Utawuletsa lesijeziso setono taboyise ebantfwaneni, nasebantfwaneni bebantfwababo, kuya kusesitsatfu nesesine situkulwane. ⁸ Mose waguca phansi emhlabatsini wadvumisa. ⁹ Wabese utsi, ''Nangabe nyalo sentfole umusa emehlweni akho, Nkhosi yami, ngicela uhambe emkhatsini wetfu, ngoba labantfu babontsamolukhuni. Colela tiphambuko netono tetfu, usitsatse njengelifa lakho.'' ¹⁰ Simakadze watsi, '''Buka, ngisatokwenta sivumelwane. Embikwe bantfu bakho bonkhe, ngitakwenta timanga letingazange tenteke kuwo wonkhe umhlaba nasetiveni. Bonkhe bantfu labasemkhatsini kwakho batawubona imisebenti yami, ngoba yintfo lesabeka kakhulu lelengiyenta nawe. ¹¹ Hlonipha lengikuyala ngako namuhla. Sengitawukhipha embikwenu emaAmorites, nemaKhenana, nemaHittites, nemaPerizi, nemaHivites, nemaJebusi. ¹² Caphela, ningenti tivumelwano nebantfu balelive leniya kulo, ngoba batakujika babetigibe kini. ¹³ Kunaloko, phulani emalathi abo, nibhidlite tinsika tematje abo, nisike nehlise tingodvo tabo temaAshera. ¹⁴ Ningamkhonti lomunye nkulunkulu, ngoba Simakadze, libito lakhe lineMona, unguNkulunkulu lonemona. ¹⁵ Ngaloko Caphela ungenti sivumelwano nalabantfu balelive, ngoba batinikela njengetingwababane kulabonkulunkulu babo, banikele kulabonkulunkulu babo. Lapho munye wabo utanimema, futsi nitokudla leminye yalemihlatjelo yabo, ¹⁶ futsi nitobese nitsatsa lamanye emadvodzakati akhe nitsatsele emadvodzana enu, emadvodzakati akhe atatigwadlela kulabonkulunkulu babo, bente emadvozana enu atigwadlele kubonkulunkulu babo. ¹⁷ Ningatakheli bonkulukulu ngensimbi lencibikilisiwe. ¹⁸ Nigcine umgubho wesinkwa lesingenamvubelo. Njengoba nganiyala, kumele nidle sinkhwa lesinganamvubelo emalanga lasikhombisa ngesikhatsi lesibekiwe enyangeni yeAbibi, ngoba kwakuyinyanga yeAbibi naniphuma eGibhithe. ¹⁹ Onkhe ematibulo, futsi nalo lonkhe litibulo lesilisa emfuyweni yenu, noma imihlambi yetinkhomo noma timbuti netimvu. ²⁰ Nibohlenga litibulo lembhongolo ngemvu, kepha umangabe ningeke nilitsenge kabusha, nibophula intsamo yalo. Nibohlenga onkhe ematibulo emadvozaneni enu. Kute loyawuvela embikwami anganalutfo esandleni. ²¹ Nibosebenta emalanga lasitfupha, kepha elangeni lesikhombisa niphumule. Nangesikhatsi sekuhlanyela nesekuvunwa, kumele niphumule. Nigcine ²² umgubho weMaviki ngetitselo tekucala takolo, futsi nigcine umghubo wembutsano wenu ekupheleni kwemnyaka. ²³ Katsatfu ngemnyaka onkhe emadvodza enu kufanele eme embikwNkhosi Simakadze, Nkulunkulu wakaIsrayeli. ²⁴ Ngoba ngitakukhweshisa tive embikwenu ngikhulise imincele yenu. Kute lotakuhawukela live lenu kutsi libengelabo maninyuka niyovela embikwaSimakadze Nkulunkulu wenu katsatfu ngemnyaka. ²⁵ Akukameli ninikele ingati yemhlatjelo wami nanomanguyiphi imvubelo, noma kungasali nomanganguyiphi inyama kulomhlatjelo wemgubho weliPhasika kute kubesekuseni. ²⁶ Etinsimini tenu niboletsa titselo tekucala letinhle endlini yami. Ningabobilisa imbuti lencane elubisini lwenina.'' ²⁷ Simakadze watsi kuMose, ''Bhala phansi namagama, ngoba ngekuhambisana nalamagama ngente sivumelwano nawe naIsrayeli. ²⁸ Mose abelapho naSimakadze emalanga langu-40 kanye nebusuku; akatange adle kudla noma anatse emanti. Wabhala kuletincetu emagama esivumelwano, lemitsetfo lelishumi. ²⁹ Mose nakehla entsabeni yeSinai naletincetu letimbili tesivumelwano etandleni takhe, abengati kutsi sikhumba sebuso bakhe bebumanyatela ngalesikhatsi akhuluma naNkulunkulu. ³⁰ Ngaleskhatsi Aaron nemaIsrayeli babona Mose, sikhumba sebuso bakhe sasimanyatela, futsi bebesaba kusondzela edvutane naye. ³¹ Kepha Mose wababita, naAron nabo bonkhe baholi balommango kutsi bete kuye. Wase Mose ukhuluma nabo. ³² Nakuphela loku, bonkhe bantfu bakasrayeli benyuka baya kuMose, wabatjela yonkhe imitsetfo lanikwe nguSimakadze entsabeni yeSinai. ³³ Mose nakacedza kukhuluma nabo, wafaka iveyili ebusweni bakhe. ³⁴ Njalo Mose nakaya embikwaSimakadze kuyokhuluma naye, bekayikweshisa leveyile, ate aphume. Nakaphuma, bekatjela bakaIsrayeli konkhe lebekatjelwe kutsi akusho. ³⁵ EmaIsrayeli nakabona buso baMose bumanyatela, bekaphindze ayibuyisele leveyile ebusweni bakhe, ate aphindze abuyele kuyokhuluma naSimakadze.
