1 Ke kaloku ngomhla wamashumi amabini anesiné waloo nyanga, bahlanganisana oonyana bakaSirayeli, bezila ukudla, beneengubo ezirhwexayo, bezigalele umhlaba.
2 Yazahlula imbewu kaSirayeli koonyana bonke bolunye uhlanga, bema bazixela izono zabo, nobugwenxa booyise.
3 Bema endaweni yabo, belesa encwadini yomyalelo kaYehova uThixo wabo, isahlulo sesiné semini; esinye isahlulo sesiné bexela izono zabo, bemnqula uYehova uThixo wabo.
4 Benyuka bema esikhwelweni sabaLevi ooYeshuwa noBhani, noKademiyeli, noShebhaniya, noBhuni, noSherebhiya, noBhani, noKenani; bamemeza ngezwi elikhulu kuYehova uThixo wabo.
5 Bathi abaLevi, ooYeshuwa, noKademiyeli, noBhani, noHashabheneya, noSherebhiya, noHodiya, noShebhaniya, noPetaya:Sukani nime. Bongani uYehova uThixo wenu, kususela kwaphakade kude kuse ephakadeni.Malibongwe igama lobuqaqawuli bakho, elikuphakameleyo konke ukubonga nokudumisa.
6 Wena unguYehova wedwa, wena wenza izulu, izulu lawo amazulu, nomkhosi wawo wonke, umhlaba nento yonke ephezu kwawo, iilwandle neento zonke ezikhona, uzidilisa ubomi zonke ezo zinto; umkhosi wamazulu uqubuda kuwe.
7 Wena unguYehova, uThixo owanyula uAbram, wamkhupha eUre yamaKaledi, wamthiya igama elinguAbraham.
