3 Ngokuba uYehova utsho ngoonyana neentombi ezizalelwa kule ndawo, nangoonina ababazalayo, nangooyise ababazalayo kweli lizwe, ukuthi,
4 Baya kufa zizifo ezibulalayo, bangàmbanjazelelwa, bangàngcwatywa; baya kuba ngumgquba phezu komhlaba; baya kuphela likrele nayindlala, nezidumbu zabo zibe kukudla kweentaka zezulu nokwezilo zomhlaba.
5 Ngokuba utsho uYehova ukuthi, Musa ukungena endlwini yesijwili, ungayi kumbambazela, ungabakhuzi; ngokuba ndilususile kwaba bantu uxolo lwam, inceba nemfesane yam; utsho uYehova.
6 Kuya kufa abakhulu kwanabancinane kweli lizwe, bangàngcwatywa, kungàmbanjazelwa ngenxa yabo, kungàcentwa, kungàchetywa ntloko ngenxa yabo;
7 bangàqhekezelwa sonka esijwilini sabo, ukuba bathuthuzelwe ngenxa yofileyo; bangàsezwa ngendebe yentuthuzelo ngenxa yooyise nangenxa yoonina.
8 Uze ungangeni endlwini yesidlo, ukuba uhlale nabo, udle, usele.
9 Ngokuba utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Yabonani, ndiya kuliphezisa kule ndawo, phambi kwamehlo enu nangemihla yenu, izwi lemihlali nezwi lemivuyo, izwi lomyeni nezwi lomtshakazi.
