20 “Nange iinsolwezo ziliqiniso begodu kungabi nobufakazi obutjengisa bona umntazana lo akhenge alale nendoda,
21 kufuze alethwe ebungenweni bendlu kayise, amadoda wedorobho amkghadlhe ngamatje bekafe ngombana wenze isenzo esihlazisako+ kwa-Israyeli ngokuziphatha kumbi ngokomseme* endlini kayise.+ Kufuze nisuse okumbi hlangana nani.+
22 “Nange kufunyanwa indoda ilele nomfazi wenye indoda, bobabili kufuze babulawe, indoda leyo nomfazi loyo.+ Kufuze nisuse okumbi kwa-Israyeli.
23 “Nange umntazana ongakhenge alale nendoda athenjiswe umtjhado, kwenzeke ahlangane nendoda edorobheni ilale naye,
24 bobabili kufuze nibakhuphele ngaphandle kwesango ledorobho nibakghadlhe ngamatje bebafe ngombana umntazana akhenge arhuwelele edorobheni nendoda leyo ihlazise umfazi wenye indoda.+ Kufuze nisuse okukhohlakeleko hlangana nani.
25 “Nange kwenzeka indoda ihlangane nomntazana othenjiswe umtjhado emmangweni, indoda leyo imhlule ngamandla beyilale naye, indoda leyo kufuze ibulawe,
26 ningamenzi litho umntazana ngombana akakenzi isono esingambangela bona abulawe. Umlandu lo ufana nalokha umuntu nakasahlela omunye umuntu bekambulale.+
