3 UMoses wenyuka waya kuThixo, uYehova wadanduluka kuye esentabeni apho, wathi, Yitsho kwindlu kaYakobi, uxelele oonyana bakaSirayeli ukuthi,
4 Nina niyibonile into endiyenzileyo kumaYiputa, ukuba ndanithwala ngamaphiko okhozi, ndanizisa kum.
5 Ngoku ke, ukuba nithe naliphulaphula okunene izwi lam, nawugcina umnqophiso wam, noba yinqobo kum kwizizwe zonke, kuba ihlabathi lonke lelam;
6 nibe bubukumkani bababingeleli kum, nohlanga olungcwele. Ngawo lawo amazwi oya kuwathetha koonyana bakaSirayeli.
7 Weza uMoses, wawabiza amadoda amakhulu abantu, wabeka phambi kwawo onke amazwi uYehova awamwisela umthetho ngawo.
8 Baphendula bonke abantu ngamxhelo mnye, bathi, Konke akuthethileyo uYehova sokwenza. UMoses wayixelela uYehova intetho yabantu.
9 Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Yabona, ndiyeza kuwe ndiselifini elingqingqwa, ukuze beve abantu ekuthetheni kwam nawe, bakholwe kuwe ngonaphakade. Wawaxela ke uMoses amazwi abantu kuYehova.
