Wabeka izincekukazi n abantwana bazo ngaphambili, uLeya nabantwana bakhe ngasemuva, oRaheli noJosefa ngasekugcineni.

Zase zisondela izincekukazi, zona nabantwana bazo, bakhothama.

Wolenza igceke letabernakele ; ngaseningizimu ohlangothini olungaseningizimu makube khona izilenge zegceke zelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo , ubude bazo bube yizingalo eziyikhulu ohlangothini lunye;

Uyakuqeda zonke izizwe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ayakuzinikela kuwe; iso lakho lingazihawukeli , ungakhonzi onkulunkulu bazo , ngokuba lokho kuyakuba lugibe kuwe.

Izithombe ezibaziweyo zawonkulunkulu bazo niyakuzishisa ngomlilo ; awuyikufisa isiliva noma igolide elikuzo , ungazithatheli lona, funa ucushwe ngalo, ngokuba kuyisinengiso kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho;

Niyakuchitha nokuchitha zonke izindawo , lapho izizwe eniyakuzidla zazikhonza khona onkulunkulu bazo ezintabeni eziphakemeyo, nasemadulini, naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza,

xwaya ukuba ungacushwa ukuzilandela sezichithiwe phambi kwakho , ungabuzi ngawonkulunkulu bazo , uthi: Lezi zizwe zik honza kanjani onkulunkulu bazo na? Nami ngiyakwenza kanjalo.

Awuyikwenze njalo kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ngokuba zenzile konkulunkulu bazo konke okuyisinengiso kuJehova akuzondayo , lokhu ziwashisela ngomlilo onkulunkulu bazo amadodana azo namadodakazi azo.

ukuba ningangeni kulezo zizwe ezisele phakathi kwenu, ningabizi amagama awonkulunkulu bazo, ningabafungi, ningabakhonzi, ningabakhothameli,

Izingwegwe, ubude bazo bungububanzi besandla , zazifakiwe ngaphakathi nxazonke; ematafuleni kwakukhona inyama yomnikelo.

Yisiphi isizwe nesisodwa emhlabeni esinjengabantu bakho u -Israyeli, uNkulunkulu ayakuzihlengela bona ukuba babe ngabantu bakhe , azenzele igama, anenzele nina izinto ezinkulu, alenzele izwe lakini izinto ezesabekayo phambi kwabantu bakho owazihlengela bona eGibithe ezizweni nakubo onkulunkulu bazo, na?

UJowabe wangena endlini enkosini , wathi: Udumazile namuhla ubuso bazo zonke izinceku zakh o ezisindisile ukuphila kwakho namuhla , nokuphila kwamadodana akho namadodakazi akho , nokuphila kwabafazi bakho , nokuphila kwezancinza zakho

USolomoni waziyeka zonke izinto zingalinganiswanga ngenxa yobuningi bazo obukhulu kakhulu; nesisindo sethusi sasingenakutholwa.

Inkosi uSolomoni nayo yonke inhlangano yakwa -Israyeli eyayihlangene kuyo babe nayo phambi komphongolo , behlaba izimvu nezinkabi ezingenakulotshwa, zingenakubalwa ngobuningi bazo.

Kodwa zonke izizwe zazenzela onkulunkulu bazo , zababeka ezindlini zezindawo eziphakemeyo ezazenziwe ngama Samariya, kwaba yileso naleso sizwe emizini esasihlezi kuyo.

Zesaba-ke lezo zizwe uJehova , kepha zakhonza izithombe zazo ezibaziweyo, kanjalo nabantwana bazo nabantwana babantwana bazo ; njengalokho benzile oyise, benze njalo nabo kuze kube namuhla.

Zonke izinduna zempi , zona nabantu bazo , sezizwile ukuthi inkosi yaseBabele imenzile uGedaliya umbusi ezweni , zaya kuGedaliya eMispa : u- Ishmayeli indodana kaNethaniya, noJohanani indodana kaKhareya, noSeraya indodana kaThanihumeti waseNethofa , noJahazaniya indodana yomMahakha, bona nabantu babo.

Inkosi uSolomoni nayo yonke inhlangano yakwa-Israyeli eyayihlangene kuyo babe phambi komphongolo behlaba izimvu nezinkabi ezingenakulotshwa , zingenakubalwa ngobuningi bazo.

Kodwa akabulalanga abantwana bazo , kepha wenza njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni encwadini kaMose njengokuyala kukaJehova ngokuthi : Oyise abayikubulawa ngenxa yabantwana , nabantwana abayikubulawa ngenxa yawoyise, kepha yilowo nalowo uyakufa ngesakhe isono.

Ake ubuze ezizukulwaneni zakuqala , uzibhekise lokho abakuphenyile yo oyise bazo,

Izenzo zakho mazibonakale kuzo izinceku zakho , nenkazimulo yakho kubantwana bazo.

Lapho amadodana ethu enjengezithombo ezikhulileyo ebusheni bazo , namadodakazi ethu enj engamatshe amagumbi abaziwe ngendlela yokwakhiwa kwezindlu zamakhosi;

Ababuleweyo bazo balahliwe , nokunuka kuyenyuka ezidunjini zabo ; izintaba zincibilika ngegazi labo.

Zonke izinduna zempi ezazisendle , zona nabantu bazo , sezizwile ukuthi inkosi yaseBabele imenzile uGedaliya indodana ka -Ahikamu umbusi ezweni nokuthi inikele kuye abesilisa , nabesifazane, nabantwana, nabayizimpofana bezwe abangathunjelwanga eBabele,

Mabufike bonke ububi bazo ebusweni bakho , wenze kuzo njengokwenza kwakho kim i ngenxa yazo zonke iziphambeko zami , ngokuba ukububula kwami kukhulu, nenhliziyo idangele.

Isimo sobuso bazo sasingubuso bomuntu, zozine zinobuso bengonyama ngakwesokunene, zozine zinobuso benkomo ngakwesokhohlo , zozine zinobuso bokhozi futhi.

Babunjalo ubuso bazo . Amaphiko azo ayahlukene phezulu ; kuleso naleso amabili ayehlangene, elinye nelinye; amabili ayembesa imizimba yazo.

Zahamba zonke ngokuqonda kobuso bazo , zaya khona , lapho umo ya wayethanda ukuya khona, aziphendukanga ekuhambeni kwazo.

Zonke zifikela indluzula, ubuso bazo bujonga phambili ; zibutha abathunjwa njengesihlabathi.

ezibathengi bazo bazihlaba, bengazithwesi icala bona kodwa, nezibathengisi bazo bathi : M akabongwe uJehova , ngokuba ngiceba njalo , nezibelusi bazo bangazihawukeli.

nezingelosi ezingagcinanga ubukhosi bazo , kodwa zalishiya ikhaya lazo , izigcinele ukulahlwa kosuku olukhulu ngezibopho ezimiyo phansi kobumnyama,
