18 “Uyakwenza umcengezi wethusi, nesinqe sawo sethusi, ukuba kugezelwe kuwo, uwubeke phakathi kwetende lokuhlangana ne-altare, uthele amanzi kuwo.
19 U-Aroni namadodana akhe bayakuhlamba kuwo izandla zabo nezinyawo zabo.
20 Nxa bengena etendeni lokuhlangana, bayakugeza ngamanzi ukuba bangafi, noma besondela e-altare ukuyokhonza, bawushise umnikelo womlilo kuJehova;
21 mabahlambe izandla zabo nezinyawo zabo ukuba bangafi, kube yisimiso esiphakade kubo, kuyena nakuyo inzalo yakhe ezizukulwaneni zabo.”
22 UJehova wakhuluma futhi kuMose, wathi:
23 “Zithabathele amakha amahle, imure* eliphumayo lamashekeli* angamakhulu ayisihlanu, nokinamona* othaphukayo wenxenye yalokho, okungukuthi amakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu, nekalamu* elithaphukayo lamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu,
24 nekasiya* lamakhulu ayisihlanu ngokweshekeli* lendlu engcwele, nehini* lamafutha eminqumo.
