UNumeri 3

¹Lezi ziyizizukulwane zika-Aroni noMose ngosuku uJehova akhuluma ngalo kuMose entabeni yaseSinayi.

²Lawa angamagama amadodana ka-Aroni; uNadabi izibulo, no-Abihu, no-Eleyazare, no-Itamari.

³Lawa angamagama amadodana ka-Aroni, abapristi abagcotshiweyo, abamise ukuba bakhonze esikhundleni sobupristi.

⁴ONadabi no-Abihu bafa phambi kukaJehova ekuletheni umlilo ongafanele phambi kukaJehova ehlane laseSinayi, bengenabantwana; u-Eleyazare no-Itamari bakhonza ebupristini phambi kwamehlo kayise u-Aroni.

⁵UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

⁶Sondeza isizwe sakwaLevi, usimise phambi kuka-Aroni umpristi ukuba simkhonze.

⁷Bayakugcina inkonzo yayo nenkonzo yebandla lonke phambi kwetende lokuhlangana, benze inkonzo yetende.

⁸Kumelwe bagcine zonke izinto zetende lokuhlangana nenkonzo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuze benze umsebenzi wenkonzo yetende.

⁹AmaLevi uyakuwanika u-Aroni namadodana akhe; baphiwa kuye besuka phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.

¹⁰Kumelwe umise u-Aroni namadodana akhe, futhi kumelwe balinde esikhundleni sabo sobupristi; futhi umfokazi osondelayo kumelwe abulawe.

¹¹UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

¹²Mina-ke, bheka, ngawathatha amaLevi phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli esikhundleni samazibulo onke avula isizalo phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; ngalokho amaLevi ayakuba ngawami;

¹³Ngoba wonke amazibulo angawami; ngokuba mhla ngibulala amazibulo onke ezweni laseGibithe, ngazingcwelisela kimi onke amazibulo akwa-Israyeli, abantu nawezilwane; bayakuba ngabami; nginguJehova.

¹⁴UJehova wakhuluma kuMose ehlane laseSinayi, wathi:

¹⁵Bala abantwana bakwaLevi ngemindeni yabo ngezizukulwane zabo: bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu uyakubabala.

¹⁶UMose wababala njengezwi likaJehova, njengalokho eyaliwe.

¹⁷Lawa angamadodana kaLevi ngamagama awo; uGereshoni noKohati noMerari.

¹⁸Lawa angamagama amadodana kaGereshoni ngemindeni yawo; uLibni noShimeyi.

¹⁹Amadodana kaKohati ngemindeni yawo; u-Amramu no-Ishehari, uHebroni no-Uziyeli.

²⁰Amadodana kaMerari ngemindeni yawo; UMahli noMusi. Lezi ziyizizukulwane zamaLevi ngemindeni yawo.

²¹KwaGereshoni kwavela umndeni wakwaLibini nomndeni wakwaSimi; lezi ziyizizukulwane zamaGereshoni.

²²Labo ababalwayo ngenani labo bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu, ababalwayo kubo babe yizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa namakhulu amahlanu.

²³Imindeni yamaGereshoni kumelwe ikanise ngemva kwetabernakele ngasentshonalanga.

²⁴Isikhulu sendlu kayise wamaGereshoni siyakuba ngu-Eliyasafa indodana kaLayeli.

²⁵Inkonzo yamadodana kaGereshoni etendeni lokuhlangana iyakuba yitabernakele netende, nesembozo salo, neveli lomnyango wetende lokuhlangana;

²⁶nezilenge zegceke, nesilenge somnyango wegceke elingasetabernakele nase-altare nxazonke, nezintambo zalo zomsebenzi wonke walo.

²⁷KwaKohati kwavela umndeni wakwa-Amramu nomndeni wama-Ishari nomndeni wakwaHebroni nomndeni wakwa-Uzili; lezi ziyizizukulwane zamaKohati.

²⁸Ngokwenani labo bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu babe yizinkulungwane eziyisishiyagalombili namakhulu ayisithupha ababegcina inkonzo yendlu engcwele.

²⁹Imindeni yamadodana kaKohati iyakumisa eceleni kwetabernakele ngaseningizimu.

³⁰Isikhulu sendlu kayise wemindeni yamaKohati siyakuba ngu-Elishafani indodana ka-Uziyeli.

³¹Inkonzo yabo iyakuba ngumphongolo, netafula, nothi lwesibani, nama-altare, nezinto zendlu engcwele abakhonza ngazo, neveli, nayo yonke inkonzo yalo.

³²U-Eleyazare, indodana ka-Aroni umpristi, kumelwe abe induna yezikhulu zamaLevi, aqondise labo abagcina inkonzo yendlu engcwele.

³³KwaMerari kwavela umndeni wakwaMagili nomndeni wamaMushi; lezi ziyizizukulwane zikaMerari.

³⁴Labo ababalwayo ngenani labo bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu babe yizinkulungwane eziyisithupha namakhulu amabili.

³⁵Isikhulu sendlu kayise wemindeni yakwaMerari sasinguSuriyeli indodana ka-Abihayili; kumelwe bakanise ohlangothini lwetabernakele, olubheke enyakatho.

³⁶Ngaphansi kwesandla sokuqondisa nokuqondisa kwamadodana kaMerari kuyakuba khona izinsika zetabernakele, nemishayo yalo, nezinsika zalo, nezisekelo zalo, nazo zonke izinto zalo, nakho konke okukhonza kulo;

³⁷nezinsika zegceke nxazonke, nezinyawo zazo, nezikhonkwane zazo, nezintambo zazo.

³⁸Abamisa phambi kwetabernakele ngasempumalanga phambi kwetende lokuhlangana ngasempumalanga, bayakuba ngoMose no-Aroni namadodana akhe abagcina inkonzo yendlu engcwele enkonzweni yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; futhi umfokazi osondelayo kumelwe abulawe.

³⁹Bonke ababalwayo bamaLevi uMose no-Aroni abababalayo ngokomyalo weNkosi ngezizukulwane zabo, bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu babe yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili.

⁴⁰UJehova wathi kuMose: “Bala onke amazibulo abantwana babantwana bakwa-Israyeli kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu, uthabathe inani lamagama abo.

⁴¹Kumelwe ungithathele amaLevi, nginguJehova, esikhundleni samazibulo onke phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; nezinkomo zamaLevi esikhundleni samazibulo onke ezinkomo zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

⁴²UMose wabala onke amazibulo phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, njengalokho uJehova emyalile.

⁴³Onke amazibulo esilisa ngenani lamagama, kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu, ababalwayo kubo, ayeyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili namakhulu amabili namashumi ayisithupha nantathu.

⁴⁴UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

⁴⁵Thatha amaLevi esikhundleni samazibulo onke phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nezinkomo zamaLevi esikhundleni sezinkomo zabo; amaLevi ayakuba ngawami. Mina nginguJehova.

⁴⁶Abazahlengwa kumazibulo angamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisithupha nantathu abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, abangaphezu kwamaLevi;

⁴⁷Kumelwe uthathe amashekeli amahlanu isigxobo ngasinye, ngokweshekeli lendlu engcwele kumelwe uyithathe; (ishekeli lingamagera angamashumi amabili:)

⁴⁸Kumelwe uyinike u-Aroni namadodana akhe imali okufanele isibalo sabo esingavamile sihlengwe ngayo.

⁴⁹UMose wathatha imali yesihlengo kulabo ababengaphezu kwabahlengwe ngamaLevi.

⁵⁰Wayithatha imali kumazibulo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli; amashekeli ayinkulungwane namakhulu amathathu namashumi ayisithupha nanhlanu ngokweshekeli lendlu engcwele;

⁵¹UMose wayinika u-Aroni namadodana akhe imali yesihlengo njengezwi likaJehova, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.
