1 Wathetha uYehova kuMoses, esithi,
2 Thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli, uthi kubo, Xa athe umntu wenza isibhambathiso esibalulekileyo, imiphefumlo yoba yeka Yehova ngokulinganisela kwakho.
3 Ke, ukulinganisela kwakho, oyindoda makuthabathele kominyaka imashumi mabini ezelwe, kuse kominyaka imashumi mathandathu ezelwe: ukulinganisela kwakho makube ziishekele zesilivere* ezimashumi mahlanu zengcwele.
4 Ke ukuba yinkazana, ukulinganisela kwakho makube ziishekele ezimashumi mathathu.
5 Ukuba kuthabathele kumntwana ominyaka mihlanu, kwesa kumntwana ominyaka imashumi mabini, ukulinganisela kwakho oyindoda makube ziishekele ezimashumi mabini; oyinkazana, makube ziishekele ezishumi-nye.
