8 Ngelo xesha uYehova wasahlula isizwe sakwaLevi, ukuba sithwale ityeya yomnqophiso kaYehova, nokuba sime phambi koYehova silungiselele, sisikelele egameni lakhe unanamhla.
9 Ngenxa yoko uLevi akanasabelo nalifa ndawonye nabazalwana bakhe; nguYehova ilifa lakhe, njengoko wathethayo uYehova uThixo wakho kuye.
10 Ndema ke mna entabeni, njengemihla yokuqala, iimini ezimashumi mané nobusuku obumashumi mané; wandiva uYehova nangeso sihlandlo; uYehova akathanda ukukonakalisa.
11 Wathi uYehova kum, Suka ume, uhambe phambi kwabantu, bangene balimé ilizwe elo, ndafungayo kooyise ukuba ndobanika.
12 Kaloku ke, Sirayeli, uYehova uThixo wakho ubiza ntoni na kuwe, kungekuko ukumoyika uYehova uThixo wakho, uhambe ngeendlela zakhe zonke, umthande, umkhonze uYehova uThixo wakho ngentliziyo yakho yonke, nangomphefumlo wakho wonke;
13 ugcine imithetho kaYehova, nemimiselo yakhe, endikumiselayo namhla ukuba kulúnge kuwe?
14 Yabona lelikaYehova uThixo wakho izulu, nezulu lamazulu, nehlabathi, neento zonke ezikhona.
