Dutheronomi 19:1-21
19 “Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu nasatibhubhisile letive letikulelive Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu laninike lona futsi nani senilitsetse, senihlala emadolobheni ato nasetindlini tato,+
2 kufanele nikhetse emadolobha lamatsatfu kulelive Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu laninika lona kutsi libe lenu.+
3 Lendzawo Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu laninika yona niboyehlukanisa ibe tincenye letintsatfu, nente nemigwaco kuze nobe ngubani lobulele umuntfu abalekele kulinye lalamadolobha.
4 “Naku lokufanele kwentiwe mayelana nemuntfu lobulele lomunye futsi lotawubalekela kulamadolobha kuze aphile: Nangabe abulele umuntfu wakubo ngesiphosiso futsi kungasiko kutsi bekamtondza,+
5 njengalapho ahamba naye baya ehlatsini kuyewutfota, bese utsi uphakamisa lizembe ugawula sihlahla, lelizembe liphume emphinini walo lishaye lolomunye umuntfu afe, lona lobulele kufanele abalekele kulinye lalamadolobha kuze aphile.+
6 Ngaphandle kwaloko, ngentfukutselo* umphindziseli wengati+ angamcosha amkhandze bese uyambulala, ngobe bekukukhashane kulelidolobha lekukhosela. Kodvwa-ke lomuntfu bekungakafaneli abulawe, ngobe bekangamtondzi lomuntfu wakubo.+
7 Kungako-ke ngitsi kini: ‘Khetsani emadolobha lamatsatfu.’
8 “Lapho Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu sekayandzisile lendzawo yenu njengobe afunga kubokhokho benu,+ waphindze waninika lonkhe live lafunga kutsi utalinika bokhokho benu,+
9 futsi nangabe nani niyilalela ngekwetsembeka yonkhe imitsetfo lengininika yona lamuhla, kutsi nitsandze Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu niphindze nihambe etindleleni takhe ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi,+ kufanele nibese nengeta lamanye emadolobha lamatsatfu.+
10 Nanenta kanjalo, kute ingati lengenacala letawucitfwa+ eveni Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu laninika lona kutsi libe lifa lenu, kute nelicala lengati lenitawuba nalo.+
11 “Kodvwa nangabe umuntfu abetondza umuntfu wakubo,+ waze wamlalela endleleni kuze amhlasele futsi wamshaya wafa, wabese sewubalekela kulinye lalamadolobha ekukhosela,
12 emadvodza lamadzala akulelidolobha lakubo kufanele ambite, bese amletsa kulomphindziseli wengati, yena lotawubese uyambulala.+
13 Lomuntfu ningabomvela buhlungu. Kufanele nilisuse licala lekucitfwa kwengati lengenacala ka-Israyeli,+ kuze tintfo titewunihambela kahle.
14 “Nasenitfola lifa lenu kulelive Jehova Nkulunkulu wenu laninika lona, ningabosisusa sikhonkwane semncele+ wamakhelwane wenu endzaweni bokhokho benu labasibeka kuyo.
15 “Bufakazi bemuntfu munye abukeneli kutsi kungalahlwa* ngabo lomunye umuntfu ngenca yanobe nguliphi licala nobe sono lasentile.+ Kudzingeka kube nabofakazi* lababili nobe labatsatfu kuze kucinisekiswe kutsi indzaba iliciniso.+
16 Nangabe lotsite afakaza emanga ngalomunye umuntfu futsi abe anetinhloso letimbi, ammangalela nangekutsi wente intfo lembi,+
17 labo bantfu lababili kufanele beme embikwaJehova, nasembikwebaphristi kanye nebehluleli labatawube behlulela ngaleso sikhatsi.+
18 Labehluleli batayiphenyisisa lendzaba.+ Nakutfolakala kutsi lomuntfu abefakaza emanga futsi abemangalela umuntfu wakubo ngentfo lengekho,
19 nibokwenta kuye loko labehlose kukwenta kulomuntfu wakubo.+ Ngako-ke nibobususa bubi emkhatsini wenu.+
20 Labanye bantfu batawukuva ngaloku futsi besabe, ngaleyo ndlela ngeke baphindze bente intfo lembi kanjena emkhatsini wenu.+
21 Ningabobuva buhlungu,+ ngobe kufanele kwenanwe kuphila ngekuphila, liso ngeliso, litinyo ngelitinyo, sandla ngesandla, lunyawo ngelunyawo.+
