16 I-altare, ubude balo babuyizingalo eziyishumi nambili, ububanzi balo buyizingalo eziyishumi nambili, linezinhlangothi ezine ezilingeneyo.
17 Unqenqema, ubude balo, babuyizingalo eziyishumi nane, ububanzi balo bungeziyishumi nane ezinhlangothini zalo zozine; umncele nxazonke kwalo wawuyinxenye yengalo; isinqe salo sasiyingalo nxazonke, izinyathelo zalo zibheke ngasempumalanga.”
18 Wayesethi kimi: “Ndodana yomuntu, isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Nazi izimiso ze-altare mhla beyakulenza ukuba bashise umnikelo wokushiswa phezu kwalo, balifafaze ngegazi.
19 Uyakunika abapristi bamaLevi abozalo lukaSadoki, abaseduze kimi, isho iNkosi uJehova, ukuba bangikhonze, iduna libe ngumnikelo wesono.
20 Uyakuthatha okwegazi layo, ulibhece ezimpondweni zalo zozine, nasemagumbini omane onqenqema, nasemnceleni nxazonke, ulihlambulule, ulenzele ukubuyisana.
21 Uyakuthatha inkunzi yomnikelo wesono, ishiswe endaweni yendlu emiselweyo ngaphandle kwendlu engcwele.
22 “Ngosuku lwesibili uyakunikela ngempongo engenasici, ibe ngumnikelo wesono; bayakuhlambulula i-altare njengokulihlambulula ngenkunzi.
