Imizi eniyakuyinika amaLevi iyakuba yimizi eyisithupha yokuphephela , eniyakuyinika umbulali ukuba abalekele kuyo ; ngaphandle kwayo niyakuwanika imizi engamashumi amane nambili.

niyakumisela imizi ibe yimizi yokuphephela ukuba umbulali obulala umuntu kungengamabomu abalekele khona.

Kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nakumfokazi, nakogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo lemizi iyakuba ngeyokuphephela ukuba yilowo nalowo obulala umuntu kungengamabomu abalekele khona. Imithetho yababulali

ukuba umbulali abalekele khona , obulala umakhelwane wakhe kungengamabomu, ebekade engamzondi , wothi aphile uma ebalekela komunye waleyo mizi:

Kepha uma umuntu emzonda umakhelwane wakhe , emqamekela, amvukele, amshaye aze afe, abalekele komunye wale mizi,

ukuba umb ulali obulala umuntu ngesiphosiso kungengamabomu abalekele khona, yona ibe yisiphephelo kumphindiseli wegazi.

Nqumani umhlwanyeli eBabel e nobamba isikela ngesikhathi sokuvuna ; ngenxa yenkemba ecindezelay o yilowo nalowo uyakubheka abantu bakhe , yilowo nalowo abalekele ezweni lakubo.

Kepha uJona wasuka ebusweni bukaJehova ukuba abalekele eTharishishi , wehlela eJopha , wafumana umkhumbi obuyakuya eTharishishi ; wakhokha imali yawo, wakhwela kuwo, ukuba ahambe nawo , aye eTharishishi, asuke ebusweni bukaJehova.
